Answer:
Our three numbers are 8, 48, and 16.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first, second, and third numbers be x, y, and z, respectively.
The sum of them is 72. In other words:
[tex]x + y + z = 72[/tex]
The second number y is three times the third number z. So:
[tex]y = 3z[/tex]
And the third number z is eight more than the first number x. So:
[tex]z = x + 8[/tex]
To find the numbers, solve for the system. We can substitute the last two equations into the first:
[tex]x + (3z) + ( x + 8) = 72[/tex]
Substitute again:
[tex]\displaystyle x + 3(x+8) + x+8 = 72[/tex]
Solve for x. Distribute:
[tex]x+3x+24+x+8=72[/tex]
Combine like term:
[tex]5x + 32 = 72[/tex]
Subtract:
[tex]5x = 40[/tex]
And divide:
[tex]x=8[/tex]
Thus, the first number is eight.
And since the third number is eight more than the first, the third number z is 16.
The second number is three times the third. Thus, the second number y is 3(16) or 48.
Our three numbers are 8, 48, and 16.

Kylie has a loyalty card good for a 13% discount at her local hardware store. What number should she multiply the prices on the tags by to find the price she would have to pay, before tax, in one step?
Answer:
.87
Step-by-step explanation:
She gets 13 off so 100-13 =87
She will pay 87%
Multiply by .87
Kylie must multiply the price by 0.87 to get the discounted price.
Given that,
Kylie has a loyalty card good for a 13% discount at her local hardware store. What number should she multiply the prices on the tags by to find the price she would have to pay, is to be determined.
The percentage is the ratio of the composition of matter to the overall composition of matter multiplied by 100.
Here,
let the price be x,
Now,
According to the question,
discounted price = x - 13% of x
Discounted price = x - 0.13x
Discounted price = 0.87 x
The coefficient of the x represents the multiplication factor for Kylie.
Thus, Kylie must multiply the price by 0.87 to get the discounted price.

Let f(x)=x^3-6x+3 i. find the domain of the function and f’(x) in the domain.
Domain of a any cubic function [tex]f(x)=ax^3+bx^2+cx+d[/tex] is defined to be always [tex]\mathbb{R}[/tex].
The derivative with respect to x of your cubic function is,
[tex]\dfrac{d}{dx}f(x)=f'(x)[/tex]
to find the derivative of a polynomial function, simply take a derivative of each factor and sum them up,
[tex]\dfrac{d}{dx}x^3=3x^2[/tex] by the rule [tex]\dfrac{d}{dx}x^m=mx^{m-1}[/tex] where [tex]m\in\mathbb{R}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{d}{dx}-6x=-6[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{d}{dx}3=0[/tex]
So the derivative is,
[tex]f'(x)=3x^2-6[/tex]
both derivative and the original function have equal domain.
Hope this helps :)

Determine if f(x, y) = 10 − x^2 − y^2
is increasing or decreasing at (7, −3) if we
take y to be constant and let x vary. Also determine if f(x, y) is increasing at
(7, −3) if we take x to be constant and let y vary.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x,y)=10-x^2-y^2
To find derivative of z w.r.t. x is treat any other variable as a constant.
dz/dx=0-2x-0
dz/dx=-2x
Evaluating this at (7,-3) gives us dz/dx=-2(7)=-14.
Since this result is negative, it mrans as x increases z decreases.
f(x,y)=10-x^2-y^2
To find derivative of z w.r.t. y is treat any other variable as a constant.
dz/dx=0-0-2y
dz/dx=-2y
Evaluating this at (7,-3) gives us dz/dy=-2(-3)=6.
Since this result is positive it mrans as y increases z decreases.

The sample survey showed that 72% of Internet users said the Internet has generally strengthened their relationship with family and friends. Develop a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of respondents who say the Internet has strengthened their relationship with family and friends.
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of respondents who say the Internet has strengthened their relationship with family and friends is:
[tex]0.72 \pm 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.72*0.28}{n}}[/tex]
In which n is the sample size of the survey.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
The sample survey showed that 72% of Internet users said the Internet has generally strengthened their relationship with family and friends.
This means that [tex]\pi = 0.72[/tex]
95% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

Answer:
P(multiple of 5) = 0.1667
Step-by-step explanation:
The multiples of 5 on the spinner are 5 and 10. This means out of 12 numbers, only 2 multiples of 5. Therefore, there is a 2/12 chance to get a multiple of 5.

Answer:
radius: 3.685 cmheight: 12.896 cmStep-by-step explanation:
The cost of the ends of the can will be ...
c1 = 0.07(2πr²)
The cost of the side of the can will be ...
c2 = 0.04(2πrh)
The volume of the can will be ...
v = πr²h
We want the derivative of the total cost to be zero, and we want the volume to be 550 cm³. We can take the derivatives of both equations to find a relation between r and h.
d(c1 +c2) = 0.28πr·dr +0.08π(h·dr +r·dh) = 0
d(v) = 2πrh·dr +πr²·dh = 0
Solving the first equation for dh/dr gives ...
dh/dr = -π(0.28r +0.08h)/(π(0.08r)) = -(7r+2h)/(2r)
Solving the second equation for dh/dr gives ...
dh/dr = -2πrh/(πr²) = -2h/r
Equating these expressions, we get ...
-(7r +2h)/(2r) = -2h/r
7r +2h = 4h . . . . . . . multiply by -2r
h = 7/2r . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2h, divide by 2
__
Now, we can find the can dimensions from the volume equation.
550 = πr²(7/2r)
r³ = 1100/(7π)
r ≈ ∛50.02 ≈ 3.685 . . . . . cm
h = 7/2(3.685 cm) = 12.896 cm
The can cost will be a minimum when the radius is 3.685 cm and the height is 12.896 cm.
_____
Additional comment
You may notice that the ratio of height to diameter is the same as the ratio of end cost to side cost: 7/4. This is the generic solution to this sort of problem.

Amanda has 1 3/4yds of red ribbon and 7/8yds of green
ribbon. What is the total amount of ribbon that
Amanda has? (write answer as a fraction)
Answer:
21/8 yds or 2 5/8 yds
Step-by-step explanation:
First turn 1 3/4 yards into an improper fraction so you can add it to 7/8 yards.
1 3/4 as an improper fraction is 7/4 yds
7/4 yds = 14/8 yds
14/8 yds + 7/8 yds = 21/8 yds
So the total amount of ribbon Amanda has is 21/8 yds or 2 5/8 yds
