Find constants a , b, and c such that the function

y = ax2 + bx + c satisfies the differential equation y′′ + y′ − 2y = 4x2.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: a = -2, b = -2, c = 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

y = a*x^2 + b*x + c.

Then:

y' = 2*a*x + b

y'' = 2*a.

Then we can write the equation:

y′′ + y′ − 2y = 4x^2.

as:

2*a + 2*a*x + b - 2*(a*x^2 + b*x + c) = 4*x^2

To solve this, the first step is moving all the terms to the same side:

2*a + 2*a*x + b - 2*a*x^2 - 2*b*x - 2*c - 4*x^2 = 0

Now let's group terms with the same power of x.

(-4 - 2*a)*x^2 + (-2*b + 2*a)*x + (-2c + b) = 0

Now, this must be zero for all the values of x, then the parenthesis must be equal to zero:

-4 - 2*a = 0

-2*b + 2*a = 0

-2*c + b = 0

From the first equation:

-4 - 2*a = 0

-4 = 2*a

-4/2 = a

a = -2

And from the second equation:

-2*b + 2*a = 0

2*a = 2*b

a = b

b = -2.

From the third equation we have:

-2c + b = 0

-2c = b

c = b/-2 = -2/-2 = 1.

c = 1

Then our equation is:

y = -2*x^2 - 2*x + 1.

A lumber supplier sells 96-inch pieces of oak. Each piece must be within ¼ of an inch of 96 inches. Write and solve an inequality to show acceptable lengths.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]95 \frac{3}{4} \: inch \leqslant x \leqslant 96 \frac{1}{4} \: inch[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a lumber supplier sells 96 inch Pieces of oak which must be within 1/4 of an inch.

This situation can be represented by the following absolute value inequality:

[tex]|x \: - 96| \: \leqslant \: \frac{1}{4} [/tex].

The absolute value can be thought of as the size of something because length cannot be negative. The length must be no more than 1/4 away from 96.

To simplify this, pretend this is a standard equality, |x-96| = 1/4. 1/4 is the range of acceptable length, 96 is the median of the range, and x is the size of the wood.

First apply the rule |x| = y → x = [tex]\pm[/tex]y

|x-96| = 1/4

x - 96 = [tex]\pm[/tex]1/4

x = [tex]96 \pm 1/4[/tex]

(These are just the minimum, and maximum sizes)

Now with a less than or equal to, the solutions are now everything included between these two values.

Therefore:

[tex]96 - 1/4 \: \leqslant x [/tex] [tex]\leqslant \: 96 + 1/4 [/tex]

With less than inequalities, you must have the lower value on the left, and the higher value on the right.

If x represents the size of the pieces, then the acceptable lengths are represented by this following inequality:

[tex]95 \frac{3}{4} \: inch \leqslant x \leqslant 96 \frac{1}{4} \: inch[/tex]

This is interpreted as x (being the size of the oak) is greater than or equal to 95 3/4, and less than or equal to 96 1/4 in inches.

Tickets for a drumline competition cost $5 at the gate and $3 in advance. One hundred more tickets were sold in advance than at the gate. The total revenue from ticket sales was $1990. How many tickets were sold in advance?

Answers

Answer:

The number of tickets sold at the gate is [tex] G = 211.25[/tex]

The number of tickets sold in advance is  [tex]  A = 311.25 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

 The cost of a tickets at the gate is [tex]a =  \$ 5[/tex]  

  The cost of a ticket in advance is  [tex]b =  \$ 3[/tex]

Let the number of ticket sold in the gate be G

Let the number of ticket sold in advance  be   A

From the question we are told that

  One hundred more tickets were sold in advance than at the gate and this can be mathematically represented as

       [tex]G  +  100 =  A[/tex]

From the question we are told that

  The total revenue from ticket sales was $1990  and this can be mathematically represented as

    [tex]5 G  +  3A  =  1990[/tex]

substituting for  A in the equation above

    [tex]5 G  +  3[G  +  100]=  1990[/tex]    

    [tex]5 G  +  3G  +  300=  1990[/tex]    

    [tex] 8G  +  300=  1990[/tex]  

    [tex] 8G  =  1690[/tex]

=>  [tex] G = 211.25[/tex]

Substituting this for G in the above equation

     [tex]5 [211.25]  +  3A  =  1990[/tex]

=>    [tex]  3A  =  1990 - 1056.25[/tex]

=>    [tex]  A = 311.25 [/tex]

of the meals studied, 1% of them had less than 10 grams of fat.

Answers

Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) What percentage of meals had less than 10 grams of fat?

(b) Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.

To find the percentage of meals with less than 10 grams of fat, count the number of meals with less than 10 grams of fat and divide by the total number of meals; multiply this figure by a hundred.

(A) Total number of meals = 550

Number of meals having less than 10 grams of fat = 77

Percentage of meals having less than 10 grams of fat = 77/550 × 100

= 0.14 × 100 = 14%

(B) Rounding the answer to the nearest tenth of a percent means approximating it to the nearest multiple of 10 that is not more than 100 (where 100 here represents a full cent or 'percent').

The multiples of 10 that are close to 14 are 10 and 20. The closest being 10, your answer becomes 10%

The body temperatures of a group of healthy adults have a​ bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 98.18 F and a standard deviation of 0.65 F. Using the empirical​ rule, find each approximate percentage below.

a.

What is the approximate percentage of healthy adults with body temperatures within 3 standard deviation of the​ mean, or between 96.23 F and100.3 ​F?

Answers

Answer:

99.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Empirical rule formula states that:

• 68% of data falls within 1 standard deviation from the mean - that means between μ - σ and μ + σ.

• 95% of data falls within 2 standard deviations from the mean - between μ – 2σ and μ + 2σ.

• 99.7% of data falls within 3 standard deviations from the mean - between μ - 3σ and μ + 3σ.

From the question, we have mean of 98.18 F and a standard deviation of 0.65 F

The approximate percentage of healthy adults with body temperatures between 96.23 F and100.13 ​F is

μ - 3σ

= 98.18 - 3(0.65)

= 98.18 - 1.95

= 96.23 F

μ + 3σ.

98.18 + 3(0.65)

= 98.18 + 1.95

= 100.13 F

Therefore, the approximate percentage of healthy adults with body temperatures between 96.23 F and 100.13 ​F which is within 3 standard deviations of the mean is 99.7%

Find the unknown angle measures.

Answers

Answer:

x = 9°

y = 119°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

y° = 61°+58° { the exterior angle formed by producing the side of triangle is equal to two non-adjacent angle}

or, y° = 119°

therefore, y° = 119°

Now,

52°+y°+x° = 180°{the sum of angle if triangle is 180°}

or, 52°+119°+x°= 180°

or, 171°+x° = 180°

or, x° = 180°-171°

or, x° = 9°

therefore, x° = 9°
