a. If G(t) = a (1 + r)ᵗ, then G(0) = a corresponds to the starting area of the glacier, which is given to be 142 acres. So a = 142.
The area of the glacier shrinks by 4.4% each year. This means that after 1 year, the area is reduced to
142 - (4.4% of 142) = 142 (1 - 0.044) ≈ 135.75 acres
After another year,
135.75 - (4.4% of 135.75) = 135.75 (1 - 0.044) ≈ 129.78 acres
or equivalently, 142 (1 - 0.044)² acres.
And so on. After t years, the glacier would have an area of
G(t) = 142 (1 - 0.044)ᵗ ⇒ G(t) = 142 × 0.956ᵗ
b. If the year 2007 corresponds to t = 0, then 2012 refers to t = 5. Then the area of the glacier is
G(5) = 142 × 0.956⁵ ⇒ G(5) ≈ 113.39 acres
c. Simply take the difference between G(5) and G(0) :
G(5) - G(0) ≈ 142 - 113.39 ≈ 28.61 acres
d. The average rate of change of G(t) from 2007 to 2012 is given by the difference quotient of G(t) over the interval 0 ≤ t ≤ 5 :
[tex]ARC_{[2007,2012]} = \dfrac{G(5) - G(0)}{5 - 0} \approx \dfrac{113.39 - 142}5[/tex]
so that ARC ≈ -5.72 acres/year. This rate tells us that a little less than 6 acres of glacial ice is lost each year, based on the reduction over the first 5 years.
e. The year 2017 refers to t = 10, so now we compute
[tex]ARC_{[2012,2017]} = \dfrac{G(10) - G(5)}{10 - 5} \approx \dfrac{90.55-113.39}5[/tex]
which comes out to about ARC ≈ -4.57 acres/year. Since this rate is smaller than the ARC between 2007 and 2012, this means that the glacial ice is disappearing at a slower rate in later years.

Answers
Answer: The number = 3 /4 or 4 / 3
Concept:
Here, we need to know the idea of a reciprocal.
Reciprocal is also called the multiplicative inverse. It is similar to turning the number upside down which is found by interchanging the numerator and denominator.
Number ⇒ Reciprocal = 1 / Number
Solve:
STEP ONE: Set up the equation
Let x = the number
Let 1 / x = the reciprocal
x + 1 / x = 25 / 12
STEP TWO: Multiply x on both sides
(x + 1 / x) · x = (25 / 12) · x
x² + 1 = 25x / 12
STEP THREE: Multiply 12 on both sides
(x² + 1) × 12 = (25x / 12) × 12
12x² + 12 = 25x
STEP FOUR: Subtract 25x on both sides
12x² + 12 - 25x = 25x - 25x
12x² - 25x + 12 = 0
STEP FIVE: Solve for the quadratic equation
(3x - 4) (4x - 3) = 0 ⇔ (Factorization of the equation)
(x - 4 / 3) (x - 3 / 4) = 0
x = 4 / 3 or x = 3 / 4

1) find the value of x
2)find length of a side of the square
Answers
Answer:
x = 12 , s = 41
Step-by-step explanation:
The sides of a square are equal , so
4x - 7 = 3x + 5 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
x - 7 = 5 ( add 7 to both sides )
x = 12
Then
length of side s is
s = 4x - 7 = 4(12) - 7 = 48 - 7 = 41
the sum of two numbers is 10, the sum of their squares is 58 determine the two numbers
Answers
Answer:
7 and 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the given information, one can form an equation. Let the first number be (x) and the second (y). For two equations based on the given information.
"the sum of two numbers is 10"
x + y = 10
" the sum of their squares is 58 determine"
[tex]x^2+y^2=58[/tex]
Solve for the equation for (x), then substitute the expression for (x) into the second equation. Simplify and solve to find the value of (y), and backsolve for the value of (x).
x + y =10
x = 10 -y
Substitute into the other equation:
[tex]x^2+y^2=58[/tex]
[tex](10-y)^2+y^2=58[/tex]
Simplify, remember the pattern for opening a binomial squared:
[tex](a - b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2[/tex]
Apply this pattern here to simplify,
[tex](10-y)^2+y^2=58[/tex]
[tex]100-20y+y^2+y^2=58[/tex]
Simplify further,
[tex]100-20y+y^2+y^2=58[/tex]
[tex]2y^2-20y+100=58[/tex]
Inverse operations,
[tex]2y^2-20y+100=58[/tex]
[tex]2y^2-20y+42=0[/tex]
Factor, take out a common factor that all of the terms have. Then rewrite the quadratic trinomial as the product of two linear binomials. Remember the general pattern for factoring, add the inverse of the factors of the constant term to the variable, the sum of these factors must equal the coefficient of the linear term of the quadratic trinomial.
[tex]2y^2-20y+42=0[/tex]
[tex]2(y^2-10y+21)=0[/tex]
[tex]2(y-7)(y-3)=0[/tex]
Now use the zero product property to solve, the zero product property states that any number times zero equals zero.
[tex]2(y-7)(y-3)=0[/tex]
[tex]y = 7, y = 3[/tex]
Since the sum of (7) and (3) is (10), one has found the values of (y), it can be either (7) or (3), it doesn't matter which equals which.

Jesse is taking the tests needed to join the math team. His scores were 89, 92, 94. What's the lowest score he can get on the fourth test and still have a 90 average?
Answers
Answer:
The lowest score could be 85
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the lowest score = x
(x + 89 + 92 + 94)/4 = 90 Add the 3 scores you know
(x + 275)/4 = 90 Multiply both sides by 4
(x + 275) = 360 Remove the brackets.
x + 275 = 360 Subtract 275
x = 360 - 275
x = 85

Verify the identity.
[tex]cot (x-\frac{\pi }{2})=-tan[/tex]
Answers
Answer:
True
Step-by-step explanation:
assuming that you meant to write
cot (x-π//2) = - tan x
the identity is TRUE because,
- you can graph cot (x-π//2) and - tan x, and see that the graphs overlap
OR
-you solve for cot (x-π/2)
useful to know is that :
cot x=1/tan x, tan x = sin x/cos x,
cos(x) =cos(-x), sin(-x) = -sin x,
cos(π/2 -x) =sin x, sin (π/2-x) =cos x
cot (x-π/2) = 1/tan (x-π/2) , yet tangent is sin x/cos x
cot (x-π/2) = cos (x-π/2) /sin (x-π/2) , factor -1
cot (x-π/2) = cos -(π/2-x) /sin -(π/2-x), use facts: cos(x) =cos(-x), sin(-x) = -sin x
cot (x-π/2) = cos (π/2-x) / -sin (π/2-x), use cos(π/2 -x) =sin x, sin (π/2-x) =cos x
cot (x-π/2) = sin x / -cos x , again sin x /cos x = tan x
cot (x-π/2) = -tan x

1. f is always positive on the interval.
2. f is always negative on the interval.

The function f(x) will be sometimes positive and sometimes negative on the interval so option (3) will be correct.
What is a function?
A certain kind of relationship called a function binds inputs to essentially one output.
In other terms, a function is a relationship between variables, and the type of relationship that exists between the variables defines the function, such as y = sinx and y = x +6.
Given function is
f(x) = (x - 5) (2x - 7) (7x - 3)
The term (x - 5) will be negative if x < 5.
The term (2x - 7) will be negative if x<3.5
Let's say if x = 4 then (x - 5) will be negative but (2x - 7) will be positive and hence overall value will be negative.
But if x = 3 then (x - 5) will be negative and (2x - 7) will also be negative and hence overall value will be negative
Hence the function f is sometimes positive and sometimes negative on the interval.

what could the mystery number
Answers
Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the mean you add all the numbers and divide by the number of numbers. There are 4 numbers in this set so we will divide by 4.
Let x be the unknown number,
(10+4+7+x)/4=8(mean)
To solve for x, we first mutliply both sides by 4.
To simplify the left side we can add 10+4+7 and get 21 where now our equation is 21+x=32. Subtract 21 on both sides and you will get 11 which is our answer.
Plug-in 11 and solve for the mean to verify where we do indeed get 8 as the mean.

b)600pi
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first questions, since the arc is 240°, the area of the sector and circumference will be 240/360 or 2/3 of the total of the circles'. Therefore 125.6 x 3/2 is the circumference, which is 188.4. When we divide this by 6.28, we get 30
Now, since the area is pi r^2 where we know that r=30, we get 900pi as the area of the whole thing, however since the sector is 2/3 of the whole circle, 2/3 x 900pi = 600pi
