Compound percentage reduction can be calculated by multiplying the initial number by (1-x)^t where x is the percentage reduction (/100, i.e. 1% reduction is 0.01), and t is the number of times it has reduced.
So:
a)
Where t is the number of weeks.
We can then just substitute in to work out the final pressure:
b) p = 45*0.94^6 =
31psi
Part 1: Answer:
(x+1)(x+1)(x-6) = x^3 - 4x^2 - 11x - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
To make r a root, include (x-r) as a factor. (-1+1)(-1+1)(-1-6) is zero even though (-1-6) isn't.
(6+1)(6+1)(6-6) is zero.
Part 2 Answer:
Standard form: y = -x^4 + 12
Degree 4
left end goes down, right end goes down.
Step by step: apply the definitions of standard form, polynomial degree, and "end behavior". In other words, read the textbook.
Part 3: Answer: x = 3, x = 8
Step by step:
x^2-11x = -24
x^2-11x+24 = 0
(x-3)(x-8) = 0
x = 3 or x = 8
Part 4a Answer:
quotient 2x^2 + x - 3
remainder 1

-10 | -20 60 -20
___________
| 2 -6 2 -20
Coefficients of quotient are 2 -6 2
Remainder is -20
quotient = 2x^2 - 6x + 2
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Make the 10% a decimal
.10
Then multiply it by 40
.10*40
You get 4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Find two numbers that add to make the coefficient of x (in this case, -5) and that multiply to make the constant term multiplied by the coefficient of x^2 (in this case, -2 x 3 = -6)
Two numbers that work are -6 and +1
-6 x +1 = -6
-6 + -1 = -5
2. Split the middle term into the two numbers that you found.
3x^2 -6x +x -2 = 0
I've put the -6 on the left side because in our next step, when we factorise, it will be easier than having the numbers the other way around.
3. Factorise the left side by taking out common factors from each pair. The pairs I'm talking about here are '3x^2 and -6x', and 'x and -2'
3x (x-2) +1 (x-2) = 0
4. You now have two numbers both being multiplied by the term x-2. We can rearrange this equation to give us two brackets being multiplied by each other.
(3x + 1) (x-2) = 0
5. According to the Null Factor Law, if two terms are multiplied together and the result is 0, then one of those terms must be 0. Make both terms equal to 0 and solve each for x.
3x + 1 = 0 x-2 = 0
3x = -1 x = 2
x = -1/3
6. The solutions to this equation are x = 2 and x = -1/3
Answer: 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the Y is 0 for both, you can simply draw a line graph with one point at 15, and the other at -1. The difference between 15 and -1 is 16. Or ABS(15-(-1))=16
