Find the mistake in the following set of steps in a student’s attempt to solve 5x+2≥x+2/5, for x. What is the correct solution set?
5x+2≥x+2/5
5(x+2/5)≥x+2/5 (factoring out 5 on the left side)
5≥1 (dividing by (x+2/5))
So, the solution set is the empty set.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: x ≥ [tex]\frac{-2}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

I cannot see what the student did wrong in your question, so I solved for x in the equation...

[tex]5x + 2[/tex] ≥ [tex]x + \frac{2}{5}[/tex]

1. subtract x from both sides

4x + 2 ≥ [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

2. subtract 2 from both sides to isolate 4x

4x ≥ [tex]\frac{-8}{5}[/tex]

3. divide both sides by 4

x ≥ [tex]\frac{-2}{5}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

x ≤ 16y ≥ 16

Step-by-step explanation:

-150x ≥ − 2,400 

[tex]\Longrightarrow -\frac{1}{150} \times \left( -150\right) x \leq -\frac{1}{150} \times \left( -2400\right)[/tex]

-336 ≥ − 21y

[tex]\Longrightarrow -\frac{1}{21} \times \left( -336\right) \leq -\frac{1}{21} \times \left( -21\right)y[/tex]

A square picture is mounted on a larger rectangular sheet of poster paper leaving a border around the picture of 2 inches on the bottom and 1 inch on each remaining sides. The sheet of poster apper has an area of 42 square inches. If x represents the length of a side of the square picture, then an equation that can be used to determine the value of x is

Answers

An equation that can be used to determine the value of x is x² + 5x - 36 = 0.

To answer the question, we need to know what equations are

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression which shows the relationship between two variables.

Given that the x represents the length of side of the square picture and the rectangular sheet poster leaving a border around the picture of 2 inches on the bottom and 1 inch on each remaining sides.

Then,

The width of the rectangular poster is W = x + 2 + 1 = x + 3. The length of the rectangular poster is L = x + 1 + 1 = x + 2

So, the area of the rectangular sheet poster is A = LW

= (x + 2)(x + 3)

Since the rectangular sheet poster has an area of 42 square inches, A = 42 in².

So, (x + 2)(x + 3) = 42

x² + 3x + 2x + 6 = 42

x² + 5x + 6 - 42 = 0

x² + 5x - 36 = 0

So, an equation that can be used to determine the value of x is x² + 5x - 36 = 0.

Answers

Alpha particles are accelerated in a cyclotron to a final orbit radius of 0. 50 m. The magnetic field in the cyclotron is 0. 90 t. The period of the circular motion of the alpha particles is closest to 0.11μs.

How do find the time period in a cyclotron?

The period of the circular motion of the alpha particles moving along an in the presence of the magnetic field is given by;

[tex]T = \dfrac{2\pi m}{qB}[/tex]

Alpha particles are accelerated in a cyclotron to a final orbit radius of 0. 50 m. The magnetic field in the cyclotron is 0. 90 t.

We are given;

Mass; m = 6.68 × 10^(-27) kg

Magnetic field;B = 0.90 T

Charge;q = 2e

Now, e is the charge on an electron and it has a value of 1.6 × 10^(-19) C

So, q = 2 × 1.6 × 10^(-19)

q = 3.2 × 10^(-19) C

we know that,

[tex]T = \dfrac{2\pi m}{qB}[/tex]

we have;

[tex]T =\dfrac{ (2\pi \times 6.68 \times 10^{-27})}{(3.2 \times 10^{-19}\times 0.9)}\\T =11.798 \times 10^{-8} s[/tex]

This can also be written as;

The probability of calling a person, not from his neighborhood, is 1/5 or 0.2 if the total number of contacts is 25

What is probability?

It is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes, in other words, the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

Total number of contacts = 25

Total number of contacts of neighbors = 20

Total number of contacts which is not of the neighbors = 25 - 20 = 5

The probability of call a person not from his neighborhood:

P = 5/25 = 1/5

P = 0.2

Thus, the probability of calling a person, not from his neighborhood is 1/5 or 0.2 if the total number of contacts is 25

What is an area bounded by the curve?

When the two curves intersect then they bound the region is known as the area bounded by the curve.

The region outside the circle r = 2 and inside the circle r = - 4 sinθ.

Then the intersection point will be given as

[tex]\rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2} \left [ 4\theta + \dfrac{1}{2} \sin 2\theta \right ]_{3.6652}^{5.7595} \\\\\\\rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2} \left [ 4(5.7595 - 3.6652) + 0.5 (0.19969-0.12759) \right ][/tex]

Valerie is wrapping a box with wrapping paper the volume of the box is 476.16 cubic inches, and the length and width of the box are 4.8 inches and 8 inches respectively. How much wrapping paper is needed to cover the box?

Answers

The surface area of the rectangular box = the amount of wrapping paper needed to cover the rectangular box = 394.24 in.²

What is the Surface Area of a Rectangular Box?

Surface area = 2(wl + hl + hw).

Volume = lwh.

Given the following:

Volume = 476.16 in.³

Length = 4.8 in.

Width = 8 in.

Find the height (h) using the volume formula:

476.16 = 4.8 × 8 × h

476.16 = 38.4 × h

476.16/38.4 = h

h = 12.4 in.

Surface area = 2(wl + hl + hw) = 2(8 × 4.8 + 12.4 × 4.8 + 12.4 × 8) = 394.24 in.²

The amount of wrapping paper needed to cover the rectangular box = Surface area = 394.24 in.²

Area of perimeter of composite figures puzzle question B.

Answers

Area and perimeter of figure be: 562.08 m² and 123.68 m

What is Area and perimeter?

Perimeter is the distance around the outside of a shape. Area measures the space inside a shape.

The figure comprises of a parallelogram and semicircle.

1. For Area

Area of parallelogram = base x height

                                     = 24 x 14

                                     = 336 m²

Area of semicircle = (π x r²)/2

                               = (3.14 * 12 * 12)/2

                              = 226.08 m²

Total Area of the figure = 336+ 226.08 =562.08 m²

2. Perimeter

Perimeter of parallelogram=  2 (a+b)

                                             = 2 (19 +24)

                                            = 86 m

Perimeter of semicircle= π * r

                                      = 3.14 * 12

                                     = 37.68 m

Total Perimeter of the figure= 86 + 37.68 = 123.68 m
