Answer:
13.25 mi
Step-by-step explanation:
The largest number on the list is 13.25. The greatest distance was 13.25 miles.
_____
In order from smallest to largest, the distances are ...
4.9, 5.95, 8.9, 9.8, 13.25
Set the whole expression = to 0 and solve for x.
3x^(5/3) - 4x^(7/3) = 0. Factor out x^(5/3): x^(5/3) [3 - 4x^(2/3)] = 0
Then either x^(5/3) = 0, or 3 - 4x^(2/3) = 0.
In the latter case, 4x^(2/3) = 3.
To solve this: mult. both sides by x^(-2/3). Then we have
4x^(2/3)x^(-2/3) = 3x^(-2/3), or 4 = 3x^(-2/3). It'd be easier to work with this if we rewrote it as
4 3
--- = --------------------
1 x^(+2/3)
Then
4
--- = x^(-2/3). Then, x^(2/3) = (3/4), and x = (3/4)^(3/2). According to my 3 calculator, that comes out to x = 0.65 (approx.)
Check this result! subst. 0.65 for x in the given equation. Is the equation then true?
My method here was a bit roundabout, and longer than it should have been. Can you think of a more elegant (and shorter) solution?
Answer: 72
Step-by-step explanation:
How many times must he see 9 in order to cover all 72 of them ? 72/9 = 8 . He has to see 9 patients 8 times, so he has to work 3 hours 8 times. 3x8=24 hours.
