Shop and Save sells bananas for 80¢, apples for 25¢, and mangoes for 60¢. How much money will you spend if you buy 4 bananas, 3 apples, and a mango? (Notice that the prices are in cents and the answer is in dollars.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$4.55

Step-by-step explanation:

banana: 80¢ = $0.80

apple: 25¢ = $0.25

mango: 60¢ = $0.60

4 bananas, 3 apples, and a mango =

= 4 × $0.80 + 3 × $0.25 + 1 × $0.60

= $4.55

PLS HELP!! (40PTS.) (PRE-CALCULUS)

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

All of these vectors are in DE Moviere Form, so let put them in Vector notation

To this this, multiply the modulus by the exact values of trig functions,

So using this, Vector u

[tex]u= 3j + 3 \sqrt{3} i[/tex]

Vector V

[tex]v = 2 \sqrt{2} j - 2 \sqrt{2} i[/tex]

Vector W

[tex]w = - 6 \sqrt{3}j + 6i[/tex]

So know we can compete the parts.

For Part A:

We first multiply the vector U by -7 then multiply that by v.

[tex] - 7u = - 21j - 21 \sqrt{3} j[/tex]

Know we do cross product

[tex] - 7u(v) = ( - 21j - 21 \sqrt{3} i)(2 \sqrt{2} j \: + 2 \sqrt{2} i[/tex]

First, multiply the j componets.

Then, do the I componets and then add the product together.

[tex] - 42 \sqrt{2} j - 42 \sqrt{6} i[/tex]

So the answer to part A is the vector above.

Part B:

Let first find the dot product of u and w.

First, the cross product of u and w is

[tex] - 18 \sqrt{3} j + 18\sqrt{3} i[/tex]

The magnitudes of each respective vector is

6 and -12. So if we use dot product formula

[tex] \cos( \alpha ) = \frac{xy}{ |x| |y| } [/tex]

So we get

[tex] \cos( \alpha ) = \frac{ - 18 \sqrt{3} + 18 \sqrt{3} }{ - 72} [/tex]

[tex] \cos(a) = \frac{0}{ - 12} [/tex]

[tex] \cos(a) = 0[/tex]

[tex]a = \frac{\pi}{2} [/tex]

Since the angle is pi/2, the vectors are orthogonal.

3. Explain why (x – 4)2 = -9 has no real solutions.

Answers

Answer:

an equation is said to have no real solutions when value of x < 0

Step-by-step explanation:

here,

(x-4) 2= -9

2x - 8 = -9

2x = -1

x = -1/2

which is less than 0

The equation (x – 4)² = -9 has no real roots.

What is the solution of a quadratic equation?

The solution of a quadratic equation is the value of the variable for which the expression becomes true.

Given,

          (x – 4)² = -9

The LHS of the equation is either positive or zero.

But, the RHS of the equation is a negative value.

Therefore, RHS and LHS can never be equal.

Hence, the equation (x – 4)² = -9 has no real roots.

A cylindrical vase has a diameter of 6 inches. At the bottom of the vase, there are 7 marbles, each of diameter 3 inches. The vase is filled with water up to a height of 12 inches. Which of the following could be used to calculate the volume of water in the vase?
π(12in)2(3in) − 7(four over threeπ(1.5in)3)
π(3in)2(12in) − 7(four over threeπ(1.5in)3)
π(12in)2(3in) − 1.5(four over threeπ(7in)3)
π(3in)2(12in) − 1.5(four over threeπ(7in)3)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Vase:

h = 12 in

r = diameter/2 = 6/2 = 3 in

Volume of vase = πr²h

                            = π(3)²*12

Marbles:

r = 3/2 = 1.5 in

[tex]Volume \ of \ marbles = \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}\\\\\\Volume \ of \ 7 marbles=7*\dfrac{4}{3}\pi (1.5)^{3}[/tex]

Volume of water = Volume of vase - volume of 7 marbles

                            [tex]= \pi (3)^{2}*12 - 7*\dfrac{4}{3}\pi (1.5)^{3}[/tex]

Answer:

second choice

Step-by-step explanation:

the volume of water in the vase

= volume of the vase up to the height 12 inches - volume of 7 marbles

= π(6/2)²(12) - 7(4/3)π(3/2)³

On February 2, 1848, the United States and Mexico signed the Treaty of Guadeloupe Hidalgo, a treaty that gave ownership of California to the United States. Unbeknownst to them, James W. Marshall had discovered flakes of gold at Sutter's Mill near Coloma, California just days earlier. Marshall shared the news with John Sutter, the owner of the mill, and the two men decided to keep the discovery a secret. Unfortunately for them, news of the golden flakes spread. Sam Brannan even walked through San Francisco with gold, proving that there was indeed gold for the taking. When the news reached the East Coast, many American citizens were skeptical. When President James K. Polk shared a report written by Colonel Richard Mason, the military governor of California, the nation learned about the huge amounts of gold available. With this official confirmation, many men decided to sell their possessions, leave their families, and go west. They had gold fever and wanted to strike it rich. Most women did not go west. Instead, they remained at home to take care of businesses and farms. Many American prospectors chose to join the gold rush by sailing around Cape Horn or traveling overland along the Oregon-California Trail. Sailing Around Cape Horn a map of the world with ships starting at the East Coast of the United States, traveling around South America, and ending on the West Coast of the United States Many people living on the East Coast chose to sail around the bottom tip of South America, past Cape Horn. Passengers purchased their fare for between 500 and 1000 dollars or more! The trip was long and could take five to seven months. Many passengers suffered from seasickness and boredom. Stormy weather sometimes sank ships. Cape Horn was infamous for its strong currents and unpredictable winds. Despite these dangers, over a third of fortune hunters chose to travel by ocean.
