Step-by-step explanation:
This Question requires the concept of solving algebraic expressions.
Algebraic ExpressionsAlgebraic Expressions are expressions made up of alphabet variables and numbers and can be simplified using order of operations just like numerical expressions.
Example: 8(4x-6) = 32x - 48
ApplicationFor this question, we will use the same concept as above to solve for the expression.
[tex]7(x - 4) - 3(x + 5) = 7x - 28 - (3x + 15) \\ = 7x - 28 - 3x - 15 \\ = 4x - 43[/tex]
on a horizontal line segment, point A is located at 21, point b is located at 66. point p is a point that divides segment ab in a ratio of 3:2 from a to b where is point p located
We have a one-dimensional horizontal line segment. Three points are indicated on the line as follows:
In the above sketch we have first denoted a reference point at the extreme left hand as ( Ref = 0 ). This is classified as the origin. The point ( A ) is located on the same line and is at a distance of ( 21 units ) from Reference ( Ref ). The point ( B ) is located on the same line and is at a distance of ( 66 units ) from Reference ( Ref ).
The point is located on the line segment ( AB ) in such a way that it given as ratio of length of line segment ( AB ). The ratio of point ( P ) from point ( A ) and from ( P ) to ( B ) is given as:
[tex]\textcolor{#FF7968}{\frac{AP}{PB}}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ = }}\textcolor{#FF7968}{\frac{3}{2}\ldots}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ Eq1}}[/tex]The length of line segment ( AB ) can be calculated as follows:
[tex]\begin{gathered} AB\text{ = OB - OA } \\ AB\text{ = ( 66 ) - ( 21 ) } \\ \textcolor{#FF7968}{AB}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ = 45 units}} \end{gathered}[/tex]We can form a relation for the line segment ( AB ) in terms of segments related to point ( P ) as follows:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \textcolor{#FF7968}{AB}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ = AP + PB }}\textcolor{#FF7968}{\ldots}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ Eq2}} \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]We were given a ratio of line segments as ( Eq1 ) and we developed an equation relating the entire line segment ( AB ) in terms two smaller line segments as ( Eq2 ).
We have two equation that we can solve simultaneously:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \textcolor{#FF7968}{\frac{AP}{PB}}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ = }}\textcolor{#FF7968}{\frac{3}{2\text{ }}\ldots}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ Eq1}} \\ \textcolor{#FF7968}{AB}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ = AP + PB }}\textcolor{#FF7968}{\ldots Eq2} \end{gathered}[/tex]Step 1: Use Eq1 and express AP in terms of PB.
[tex]AP\text{ = }\frac{3}{2}\cdot PB[/tex]Step 2: Substitute ( AP ) in terms of ( PB ) into Eq2
[tex]AB\text{ = }\frac{3}{2}\cdot PB\text{ + PB}[/tex]We already determined the length of the line segment ( AB ). Substitute the value in the above expression and solve for ( PB ).
Step 3: Solve for PB
[tex]\begin{gathered} 45\text{ = }\frac{5}{2}\cdot PB \\ \textcolor{#FF7968}{PB}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ = 18 units}} \end{gathered}[/tex]Step 4: Solve for AP
[tex]\begin{gathered} AP\text{ = }\frac{3}{2}\cdot\text{ ( 18 )} \\ \textcolor{#FF7968}{AP}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ = 27 units}} \end{gathered}[/tex]Step 5: Locate the point ( P )
All the points on the line segment are located with respect to the Reference of origin ( Ref = 0 ). We will also express the position of point ( P ).
Taking a look at point ( P ) in the diagram given initially we can augment two line segments ( OA and AP ) as follows:
[tex]\begin{gathered} OP\text{ = OA + AP} \\ OP\text{ = 21 + 27} \\ \textcolor{#FF7968}{OP}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ = 48 units}} \end{gathered}[/tex]The point ( P ) is located at.
Answer:

Sketch the graph of a function that has a local maximum value at x = a where f'(a) is undefined.
Derivative and Maximum Value of a Function
The critical points of a function are those where the first derivative is zero or does not exist.
Out of those points, we may find local maxima or minima or none of them.
One example of a function with a derivative that does not exist is:
[tex]y=-x^{\frac{2}{3}}[/tex]This function has a local maximum at x=0 where the derivative does not exist.
The graph of this function is shown below:

In △ABC, m∠A=45°. The altitude divides side AB into two parts of 20 and 21 units. Find BC.
Answer:
29 units
Step-by-step explanation:
BC is a side of ACB, which is a 45 45 90 triangle. BC = AB/sqrt2
If In △ABC, m∠A=45°. The altitude divides side AB into two parts of 20 and 21 units. Then BC is 29 units
What is Trigonometry?Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that studies relationships between side lengths and angles of triangles.
Given,
In △ABC, m∠A=45°. The altitude divides side AB into two parts of 20 and 21 units.
We need to find BC
In triangle ACD,
tan 45° = CD/AD
CD = tan 45° x AD
= 1 x 20= 20 units
In triangle CDB,
tanФ = CD/BD
Ф = tan⁻¹(CD/BD)
= tan⁻¹(20/21)
= 43.6°
so, sin 43.6° = CD/BC
BC = CD/sin 43.6°
= 20/0.689
= 29 units
Hence the length of BC will be 29 units.

Answer
(-12, -8) after R270°.D¼ becomes (-2, 3)
Explanation
The first operation represented by R270° indicates a rotation of 270° counterclockwise about the origin.
When a rotation of 270° counterclockwise about the origin is done on some coordinate, A (x, y), it transforms this coordinates into A' (y, -x). That is, we switch y and x, then add negative sign to x.
Then, the second operation, D¼ represents a dilation of the coordinate about the origin by a scale factor of ¼ given.
The coordinates to start with is (-12, -8)
R270° changes A (x, y) into A' (y, -x)
So,
(-12, -8) = (-8, 12)
Then, the second operation dilates the new coordinates obtained after the first operation by ¼
D¼ changes A (x, y) into A' (¼x, ¼y)
So,
(-8, 12) = [¼(-8), ¼(12)] = (-2, 3)

Let us divide both sides of the equation by 1.8939 then simplify
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{1.8939m}{1.8939}=\frac{10,000}{1.8939} \\ m=\frac{10,000}{1.8939} \\ m\approx5280 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, there are 5280 feet in a mile (rounded to nearest whole number)

64v^4-225w^10
I come up with
(8v^2+15w^2)(8v^2-15w^5) can I simplify it?
Your answer can't be simplified but it's also slightly incorrect. No worries!
You can simplify (64v^4 - 225w^10) by applying the difference of squares --> a^2 - b^2 = (a + b)(a - b)
Here, (64v^4) is a^2, and (225w^10) is b^2.
[tex]\sqrt{64v^4 }[/tex] = a = 8v^2
[tex]\sqrt{225w^{10} }[/tex] = b = 15w^5
Substitute the values:
(8v^2 + 15w^5)(8v^2 - 15w^5)
Therefore, the factorization of [tex]64x^{4} -225w^{10}[/tex] is:
[tex](8v^{2} + 15w^5)(8v^2-15w^5)[/tex]
The factorization is already the simplest. It can't be simplified further.
You have 4/5 of a pizza left over from your pool party. If you sent 4/9 of the leftover pizza home with your friends how much of the pizza do you have left in the box
If I sent 4/9 of the leftover pizza home with your friends the pizza do I have left in the box is 16/45.
What is pizza?
Pizza is an Italian food consisting of a typically flat, spherical foundation composed of leavened wheat dough that is topped with cheese, tomatoes, and frequently a number of additional toppings. Following that, the pizza is baked at a high temperature, typically in a wood-fired oven. A small pizza is also known as a pizzetta. A pizza maker is referred to as a pizzaiolo.
To get the quantity of the leftover pizza, we need to subtract the pizza sent by me to home from the total pizza I had in my lunch box.
So,
Pizza I have left = Pizza in lunch box - Pizza I have sent
Pizza I have left = 4/5 - 4/9
Pizza I have left = (4(9) - 4(5))/45
Therefore, Pizza I have left is 16/45.

of $168,000?
The number of tickets for sale at $24 should be ?
The number of tickets which should be sold to $24 and $40 are 4500 and 1500 respectively.
Given, A 6000-seat theater has tickets for sale at $24 and $40.
How many tickets should be sold at each price for a sellout performance to generate a total revenue of $168,000 = ?
first, assign variables:
X = # of $24 tickets, Y = # or $40 tickets
write equations based on the data presented:
"6000 seat theater..."
X + Y = 6000 ...equation 1
"total revenue of 168,000"
The revenue from each type of ticket is the cost times the number sold, so:
24X + 40Y = 168,000 .....equation 2
from equation 1:
X = 6000 - Y
substitute this into equation 2: (replace X with 6000-Y)
24 (6000 - Y) + 40Y = 168,000
expand:
144,000 -24Y + 40Y = 168,000
rearrange and simplify:
16Y = 168,000 - 144,000
y = 24000/16
Y = 1500
from equation 1:
X = 6000 - 1500
X = 4500
hence the number of tickets for sale at $24 should be 4500.
