1. Prove that the product of the second and third numbers out of four consecutive whole numbers is two greater than the product of the first and the fourth numbers.


2. Prove that the square of the second number out of three consecutive odd numbers is four greater than the product of the first and third numbers.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1.

(x+1)(x+2)>x(x+3)

x^2+2x+x+2>x^2+3x

x^2+3x+2>x+3x

2>0

2.

(x+2)^2>x(x+4)

x^2+4x+4>x^2+4x

4>0

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

Suppose x is the lowest number in the set of 4 consecutive numbers, then x+1, x+2, and x+3 are then the next numbers in the sequence since they are the next whole numbers.

Then, to follow the conditions of the problem, we make the equation:

(x+1)(x+2)>x(x+3)

Using the formula of (a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd, we can expand both sides of the equation into this:

x^2+2x+x+2>x^2+3x

=x^2+3x+2>x^2+3x

We can then cancel x^2+2x from both sides and we are left with 2>0.

2.

Again, suppose x is the lowest value in the set of consecutive numbers. In this case, odd numbers increase by 2 each time so the series of numbers are:

x, x+2, x+4

Therefore, to follow the conditions of the problem, we make the equation:

(x+2)^2>x(x+4)=

(x+2)(x+2)>x(x+4)

Using the same formula of (a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd, we get:

x^2+4x+4>x^2+4x

Cancel x^2+4x from both sides and we are left with 4>0

Hope this helps!

help me pls!!!!!!!!!!!

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of decrease = 3% = 0.03

Number of decreased employees = Current number of employees * rate of decrease * number of years

= 810 * 0.03 * 16

= 388.8

= 389

Number of employees = 810 - 389 = 421

Jake's parents want $100,000 at the end of 40 years. They put their money in an account that yields 4% per year compounded continuously. How much money should jakes parents deposit?

Answers

Answer:

$ 20,189.65

Step-by-step explanation:

Jake's parents want $100,000 at the end of 40 years. They put their money in an account that yields 4% per year compounded continuously. How much money should jakes parents deposit?

From the above question, we are to find the Principal. The formula for Principal compounded continuously =

P = A / e^rt

Where:

A = Amount after time t = $100,000

r = Interest rate = 4%

t = Time in years = 40 years

First, convert R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100

r = 4%/100

r = 0.04 per year,

Then, solve our equation for P

P = A / e^rt

P = 100,000.00 / e ^(0.04×40)

P = $ 20,189.65

Therefore, the amount Jake's parents should invest = $ 20,189.65

AB is a diameter of the

BCO.

A 70°
B 20°
C 60°
D50°

Answers

Answer:

70°, ,have a nice day

Answer:

∠BCO = 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

AO = CO = BO because all radii of the same circle are equal.

∠ACO = 20° because it is an isosceles triangle.

∠BCA = 90° because a triangle with it's hypotenuse being the diameter of a circle is a right triangle.

∠BCA - ∠ACO = ∠BCO

90° - 20° = 70°

∠BCO = 70°

Answers

Answer:

B. 0.78

Step-by-step explanation:

With 22% decrease the value after the year is:

100% - 22% = 78% of the current value

To find 78% we need to multiply the current value by 0.78.

The same number is multiplied each year to find the decreased value.

The formula for the car would be:

P = 4500*0.78ˣ

The decay factor is 0.78

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine ratio in the right triangle

sin50° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{200}{x}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by x )

x × sin50° = 200 ( divide both sides by sin50° )

Solve for x:
5x - 3y = 22
10x - 4y = 46​

Answers

Answer:

x=5, y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate x for 5x-3y=22

5x-3y=22

Add 3y to both sides

5x-3y+3y=22+3y

Simplify

5x=22+3y

Divide both sides by 5

5x/5=22/5+3y/5

Simplify

x=22+3y/5

Substitute  x=22+3y/5

10*22+3y/5-4y=46

Simplify 10*22+3y/5-4y

10*22+3y/5=2(3y+22)

=2(3y+22)-4y

Expand 2(3y+22)

=6y+44-4y

Simplify 6y+44-4y

=2y+44

Isolate y for 2y+44=46

2y+44=46

Subtract 44 from both sides:

2y+44-44=46-44

Simplify

2y=2

Divide both sides by 2;

2y/2=2/2

Simplify;

y=1

For x=22+3*1/5 substitute y=1

y=22+3*1/5

22+3*1=25

=25/5

Divide the numbers;25/5=5

=5

x=5

The solutions to the system of equations are;

x=5, y=1

1 Katie is raising money to buy
a dog. She starts a
neighborhood babysitting service.
She paid $40 for a CPR class and
charges $5 per kid. Write an
equation she could use to calculate
her profit, p, if she has k kids.
O p = 5k - 40
P = 5k + 40
O p = 40k + 5
k = 40p - 5

Answers

Answer:

p = 5k - 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we're finding the profit (p), it's not the last answer choice because it's finding kids (k).

Because we have to take out from her profit whatever Katie spent, we would have -40.

Because she'd charging $5 per kid, or $5 per k, we would have 5k.

So now we know the profit is whatever she makes, then minus whatever she spent. So:

p = 5k (what she makes) - 40 (what she spent)

p = 5k - 40

Answer:

O p = 40k + 5

Katie is raising money to buy  a dog. She starts a  neighborhood babysitting service.
