Answer:
-88
Step-by-step explanation:
Let N(x) be the number of students at NMS for a certain number of years.
Let S(x) be the number of students at SMS for a certain number of years.
Let x be the number of years.
N(x)=1240-25x
S(x)=800-30x
When # of students is equal, N(x)=S(x). Therefore, we are looking for the value of x (# of years) when 1240-25x=800-30x
Subtract 1240 from each side
-25x=-440-30x
Add 30x
5x=-400
x=-88 years
Check your numbers.
The average value over the interval is the area under the curve divided by the width of the interval.
Area = 4*(6 -1) +5(8 -6) = 30
Width = 8 - 1 = 7
Average value = 30/7 = 4 2/7
Answer:
41 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Change 16 1/2 to a mixed number
16 1/2 = (2*16+1)/2 = 33/2
Change 2 1/2 to a mixed number = (2*2+1)/2 = 5/2
Multiply the turns per inch by the inches
33/2 * 5/2 =165/4
Change this back to a mixed number
4 goes into 165 41 times
41*4 = 164 there is 1 left over
41 1/4
