A paint mixer wants to mix paint that is 15% gloss with paint that is 30% gloss to make 5 gallons of paint that is 20% gloss. How many gallons of each paint should paint mixer mix together?
The paint mixer should use 2 gallons of 15% gloss paint and 3 gallons of 30% gloss paint.


The paint mixer should use 3 gallons of 15% gloss paint and 2 gallons of 30% gloss paint.

Answers

Answer 1

Sabrina, to find which fits, plug them in. Since 20% is closer to 15% than 30%, we know that more 15% is used than 30%.

3(.15) + 2(.3) = 5(.2)

.45 + .6 = 1

Nope

(10/3)(.15) + (5/3)(.3) = 5(.2)

.5 + .5 = 1

Answer(s):

[tex]\displaystyle y = 4sin\:(2x + \frac{\pi}{2}) \\ y = 4cos\:2x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\displaystyle y = Asin(Bx - C) + D \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow D \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow \frac{C}{B} \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow |A| \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow 0 \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow \frac{C}{B} \hookrightarrow \boxed{-\frac{\pi}{4}} \hookrightarrow \frac{-\frac{\pi}{2}}{2} \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \hookrightarrow \boxed{\pi} \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{2}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow 4[/tex]

OR

[tex]\displaystyle y = Acos(Bx - C) + D \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow D \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow \frac{C}{B} \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow |A| \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow 0 \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow 0 \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \hookrightarrow \boxed{\pi} \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{2}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow 4[/tex]

You will need the above information to help you interpret the graph. First off, keep in mind that although this looks EXACTLY like the cosine graph, if you plan on writing your equation as a function of sine, then there WILL be a horisontal shift, meaning that a C-term will be involved. As you can see, the photograph on the right displays the trigonometric graph of [tex]\displaystyle y = 4sin\:2x,[/tex]in which you need to replase "cosine" with "sine", then figure out the appropriate C-term that will make the graph horisontally shift and map onto the cosine graph [photograph on the left], accourding to the horisontal shift formula above. Also keep in mind that the −C gives you the OPPOCITE TERMS OF WHAT THEY REALLY ARE, so you must be careful with your calculations. So, between the two photographs, we can tell that the sine graph [photograph on the right] is shifted [tex]\displaystyle \frac{\pi}{4}\:unit[/tex]to the right, which means that in order to match the cosine graph [photograph on the left], we need to shift the graph BACKWARD [tex]\displaystyle \frac{\pi}{4}\:unit,[/tex]which means the C-term will be negative, and by perfourming your calculations, you will arrive at [tex]\displaystyle \boxed{-\frac{\pi}{4}} = \frac{-\frac{\pi}{2}}{2}.[/tex]So, the sine graph of the cosine graph, accourding to the horisontal shift, is [tex]\displaystyle y = 4sin\:(2x + \frac{\pi}{2}).[/tex]Now, with all that being said, in this case, sinse you ONLY have a graph to wourk with, you MUST figure the period out by using wavelengths. So, looking at where the graph WILL hit [tex]\displaystyle [-1\frac{1}{4}\pi, 0],[/tex]from there to [tex]\displaystyle [-\frac{\pi}{4}, 0],[/tex]they are obviously [tex]\displaystyle \pi\:units[/tex]apart, telling you that the period of the graph is [tex]\displaystyle \pi.[/tex]Now, the amplitude is obvious to figure out because it is the A-term, but of cource, if you want to be certain it is the amplitude, look at the graph to see how low and high each crest extends beyond the midline. The midline is the centre of your graph, also known as the vertical shift, which in this case the centre is at [tex]\displaystyle y = 0,[/tex]in which each crest is extended four units beyond the midline, hence, your amplitude. So, no matter how far the graph shifts vertically, the midline will ALWAYS follow.

Jackie wants to meet up with her friend who lives 3 miles away and bring him the cookies she baked. she and her friend start moving toward each other at the same time. Jackie's walking speed is 3mph, and her friend's biking speed is 12mph. 4 minutes after Jackie left the house, her mom notices that she forgot the cookies on the kitchen table. She sends Jackie's brother to bring them to Jackie. How fast should Jackie's brother travel to catch up with Jackie before she meets her friend?

Answers

Answer:

First, find the time when Jackie and her friend meet.

Using:

[tex]\sf s=ut+\dfrac12at^2[/tex]

where:

s = displacementu = initial velocitya = accelerationt = time (in hours)

Jackie and her friend are not accelerating, so a = 0, which means the formula can be reduced to:

[tex]\sf s=ut[/tex]

Create equations

Jackie:  [tex]\sf s_1= 3t[/tex]

Friend:  [tex]\sf s_2 = 12t[/tex]

As the distance covered by Jackie and her friend at the time they meet equals 3 miles:

[tex]\sf s_1+s_2=3 \ miles[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies 3t + 12t = 3[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies 15t = 3[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies t = 0.2 \ hr[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies t=0.2 \times 60=12 \ mins[/tex]

Therefore, they meet 12 mins after they both start moving.

3 mph = 3 ÷ 60 = 0.05 miles per min

12 mph = 12 ÷ 60 = 0.2 miles per min

Therefore,

Jackie traveled:  0.05 x 12 = 0.6 miles

Her friend traveled: 0.2 x 12 = 2.4 miles

when they meet.

To find the speed Jackie's brother must walk to catch up with her at the same time she meets her friend, use s = 0.6 miles (as this is the distance Jackie walked) and t = 12 - 4 = 8 mins (since he left 4 mins after Jackie left):

[tex]\sf s=ut[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies u = \dfrac{s}{t}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf u = \dfrac{0.6}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf u = 0.075 \ miles \ per \ min[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies u = 0.075 \times 60 = 4.5 \ mph[/tex]

So Jackie's brother needs to walk faster than 4.5 mph to catch up with Jackie before she meets her friend.

(If he walks at 4.5 mph, he will catch up to Jackie at the instant she meets her friend.  If he walks slower than 4.5 mph, he will not catch up with Jackie before she meets her friend).

As supply decreases, prices increase.
The average rate of change describes how much a quantity changes as price increases.
o As demand rises, the price of the product decreases.

Answers

Answer:

A, C, and D

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's analyze each option:

A) As supply rises, prices generally decrease. This is true as supply and demand have an inverse relationship. The supply curve has a positive slope, showing that as the quantity supplied increases, the price increases. So, shifting the curve to the right does decrease the equilibrium price (assuming the demand curve doesn't fluctuate).

B) As demand decreases, costs generally increase. This is false because a demand curve shows that as the quantity of demand increases, the price decreases for the product. So, shifting the curve to the left only decreases the equilibrium price (assuming the supply curve doesn't fluctuate).

C) As supply decreases, prices increase. This is true because the supply curve has a positive slope, showing that as the quantity supplied increases, the price increases. So, shifting the curve to the left does increase the equilibrium price (assuming the demand curve doesn't fluctuate).

D) The average rate of change describes how much a quantity changes as price increases. This is true because the supply curve measures how much the quantity supplied increases as the price increases, while the demand curve measures how much the quantity demanded increases as the price decreases.

E) As demand rises, the price of the product decreases. This is false because a demand curve shows that as the quantity of demand increases, the price decreases for the product. So, shifting the curve to the right only increases the equilibrium price (assuming the supply curve doesn't fluctuate).

Trigonometric equations
4sin^2(theta) + 4 = 5

Answers

Answer:

Θ = (π/6) + πn

Θ = (5π/6) + πn

Step-by-step explanation:

4sin²Θ + 4 = 5

            -4    -4

4sin²Θ = 1

÷4         ÷4

sin²Θ = (1/4)

√sin²Θ = √(1/4)

sinΘ = (1/2), (-1/2)

-------------------------

Θ = arcsin (1/2)

Θ = (π/6)

to find the quadrant subtract π

Θ = π - (π/6)

Θ = (5π/6)

Find the period

2π / |b|

b = 1

2π/1 = 2π

The sin Θ function is 2π, so values will repeat 2π in both directions.

Θ = (π/6) + 2πn (n is the variable)

Θ = (5π/6) + 2πn

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

sin Θ = (-1/2)

Θ = arcsin (-1/2)

Θ = (-π/6)

To find the second function add π

Θ = 2π + (π/6) + π

Θ = (7π/6)

Find the period

2π/|b|

2π/1

(-π/6) + 2π

2π       6         π

----- ×  ----- -  -----

1           6        6

Θ = (11π/6) will repeat every 2π in both directions

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Θ = (π/6) + 2πn

Θ = (5π/6) + 2πn

Θ = (7π/6) + 2πn

Θ = (11π/6) + 2πn

(π/6) + π = (7π/6)

(5π/6) + π = (11π/6)

Θ = (π/6) + πn

Θ = (5π/6) + πn

The average number of potholes per 10 miles of paved U.S. roads is 130. Assume this variable is approximately normally distributed and has a standard deviation of 5. Find the probability that a randomly selected road has more than 142 potholes per 10 miles

Answers

Answer:

54.03% probability that a randomly selected road has between 128 and 136 potholes per 10 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean  and standard deviation, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

Find the probability that a randomly selected road has between 128 and 136 potholes per 10 miles.

This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 136 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 128. So

X = 136

has a pvalue of 0.8849.

X = 128

has a pvalue of 0.3446.

0.8849 - 0.3446 = 0.5403

54.03% probability that a randomly selected road has between 128 and 136 potholes per 10 miles.
