The number of people attending graduate school at a university may be
modeled by the quadratic regression equation y = 8x2 - 40x+6, where x
represents the year. Based on the regression equation, which year is the best
prediction for when 1206 people will attend graduate school?
A. Year 15
B. Year 18
C. Year 24
D. Year 20

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

15 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic regression model:

y = 8x² - 40x+6 ; where

y = Number of people attending graduate school ;

x = number of years

The value of x when y = 1206

The equation becomes :

1206 = 8x² - 40x+6

1206 - 6 = 8x² - 40x

1200 = 8x² - 40x

Divide through by 8

150 = x² - 5x

x² - 5x - 150 = 0

x² - 15x + 10x - 150 = 0

x(x - 15) + 10(x - 15)

x - 15 = 0 or x + 10 = 0

x = 15 or x = - 10

Number of years can't be negative,

Hence, x = 15 years

18 Geometry question: Use an algebraic equation to find the measure of each angle that is representative in terms of X

Answers

Answer:

12x - 28° = 116°

7x + 32° = 116°

Step-by-step explanation:

12x - 28° and 7x + 32° are vertical angles. Vertical angles are congruent.

Therefore, to find the measure of each angle, we have to set each equation equal to each other as follows:

12x - 28° = 7x + 32°

Collect like terms

12x - 7x = 28 + 32

5x = 60

Divide both sides by 5

5x/5 = 60/5

x = 12

✔️12x - 28°

Plug in the value of x

12(12) - 28

= 144 - 28

= 116°

✔️7x + 32°

7(12) + 32

= 84 + 32

= 116°

A small airplane flies 750 miles with an average speed of 250 miles per hour. 1.75 hours after the plane leaves, a Boeing 747 leaves from the same point. Both planes arrive at the same time; what was the average speed of the 747?

Answers

Answer:

The average speed of the 747 was of 600 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

A small airplane flies 750 miles with an average speed of 250 miles per hour.

Velocity is distance divided by time, and here, we find the time of the small airplane. So

[tex]v = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]

[tex]250 = \frac{750}{t}[/tex]

[tex]250t = 750[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{750}{250}[/tex]

[tex]t = 3[/tex]

1.75 hours after the plane leaves, a Boeing 747 leaves from the same point. Both planes arrive at the same time;

This means that it traveled 750 miles in 3 - 1.75 = 1.25 hours.

What was the average speed of the 747?

[tex]v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{750}{1.25} = 600[/tex]

The average speed of the 747 was of 600 miles per hour.

help with 4b thank you. ​

Answers

First let's compute dx/dt

[tex]x = t - \frac{1}{t}\\\\x = t - t^{-1}\\\\\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}\left(t - t^{-1}\right)\\\\\frac{dx}{dt} = 1-(-1)t^{-2}\\\\\frac{dx}{dt} = 1+\frac{1}{t^{2}}\\\\\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{t^2}{t^{2}}+\frac{1}{t^{2}}\\\\\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{t^2+1}{t^{2}}\\\\[/tex]

Now compute dy/dt

[tex]y = 2t + \frac{1}{t}\\\\y = 2t + t^{-1}\\\\\frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}\left(2t + t^{-1}\right)\\\\\frac{dy}{dt} = 2 - t^{-2}\\\\\frac{dy}{dt} = 2 - \frac{1}{t^2}\\\\\frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{2t^2}{t^2}-\frac{1}{t^2}\\\\\frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{2t^2-1}{t^2}\\\\[/tex]

From here, apply the chain rule to say

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{dy*dt}{dx*dt}\\\\\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{dy}{dt} \times \frac{dt}{dx}\\\\\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{dy}{dt} \div \frac{dx}{dt}\\\\\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2t^2-1}{t^2} \div \frac{t^2+1}{t^{2}}\\\\\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2t^2-1}{t^2} \times \frac{t^{2}}{t^2+1}\\\\\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2t^2-1}{t^2+1}\\\\[/tex]

We could use polynomial long division, or we could add 2 and subtract 2 from the numerator and do a bit of algebra like so

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2t^2-1}{t^2+1}\\\\\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2t^2-1+2-2}{t^2+1}\\\\\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{(2t^2+2)-1-2}{t^2+1}\\\\\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2(t^2+1)-3}{t^2+1}\\\\\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2(t^2+1)}{t^2+1}-\frac{3}{t^2+1}\\\\\frac{dy}{dx} = 2-\frac{3}{t^2+1}\\\\[/tex]

This concludes the first part of 4b

=======================================================

Now onto the second part.

Since t is nonzero, this means either t > 0 or t < 0.

If t > 0, then,

[tex]t > 0\\\\t^2 > 0\\\\t^2+1 > 1\\\\\frac{1}{t^2+1} < 1 \ \text{ ... inequality sign flip}\\\\\frac{3}{t^2+1} < 3\\\\-\frac{3}{t^2+1} > -3 \ \text{ ... inequality sign flip}\\\\-\frac{3}{t^2+1}+2 > -3 + 2\\\\2-\frac{3}{t^2+1} > -1\\\\-1 < 2-\frac{3}{t^2+1}\\\\-1 < \frac{dy}{dx}\\\\[/tex]

note the inequality signs flipping when we apply the reciprocal to both sides, and when we multiply both sides by a negative value.

You should find that the same conclusion happens when we consider t < 0. Why? Because t < 0 becomes t^2 > 0 after we square both sides. The steps are the same as shown above.

So both t > 0 and t < 0 lead to [tex]-1 < \frac{dy}{dx}[/tex]

We can say that -1 is the lower bound of dy/dx. It never reaches -1 itself because t = 0 is not allowed.

We could say that

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{t\to0}\left(2-\frac{3}{t^2+1}\right)=-1\\\\[/tex]

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

To establish the upper bound, we consider what happens when t approaches either infinity.

If t approaches positive infinity, then,

[tex]\displaystyle L = \lim_{t\to\infty}\left(2-\frac{3}{t^2+1}\right)\\\\\\\displaystyle L = \lim_{t\to\infty}\left(\frac{2t^2-1}{t^2+1}\right)\\\\\\\displaystyle L = \lim_{t\to\infty}\left(\frac{2-\frac{1}{t^2}}{1+\frac{1}{t^2}}\right)\\\\\\\displaystyle L = \frac{2-0}{1+0}\\\\\\\displaystyle L = 2\\\\[/tex]

As t approaches infinity, the dy/dx value approaches L = 2 from below.

The same applies when t approaches negative infinity.

So we see that [tex]\frac{dy}{dx} < 2[/tex]

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

Since [tex]-1 < \frac{dy}{dx} \text{ and } \frac{dy}{dx} < 2[/tex], those two inequalities combine into the compound inequality [tex]-1 < \frac{dy}{dx} < 2[/tex]

So dy/dx is bounded between -1 and 2, exclusive of either endpoint.

Answer:

A. 1 + 3x = -89

B. x = -30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown variable be x.

A. Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

1 + 3x = -89

B. To solve for the unknown variable;

1 + 3x = -89

3x = -89 -1

3x = -90

x = -90/3

x = -30

Check:

1 + 3x = -89

Substituting the value of x;

1 + 3(-30) = -89

1 + (-90) = -89

1 - 90 = -89

-89 = -89
