Simplifying the numerator yields

x^8 y^{12}

and simplifying the denominator yields

x^{-3} y^6

. Dividing these expressions by subtracting the exponents of like bases results in

x^{8 - (-3)} y^{12 - 6} = x^{11} y^6

. Comparing this to the expression

x^a y^b

shows that

a = 11

and

b = 6

. The value of

a - b

is

11 - 6 = 5

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Simplify the numerator of the expression.

x^8 y^{12}

Apply the power of a power and power of a product properties of exponents:

(x^2 y^3)^4 = x^{2 \cdot 4} y^{3 \cdot 4}

.

2

Simplify the denominator of the expression.

x^{-3} y^6

Apply the power of a power and power of a product properties of exponents:

(x^{-1} y^2)^3 = x^{-1 \cdot 3} y^{2 \cdot 3}

.

3

Simplify the quotient by dividing the simplified numerator by the simplified denominator.

x^{11} y^6

Use the quotient property of exponents,

\frac{x^m}{x^n} = x^{m-n}

, to subtract the exponents:

8 - (-3) = 11

and

12 - 6 = 6

.

4

Identify the values of

a

and

b

and compute the difference

a - b

.

Cevap: -3

Cevap

The sum of the y-coordinates of the intersection points is -3.

By setting the two equations equal to each other, we obtain a quadratic equation in terms of

x

. Solving this equation gives the x-coordinates of the intersection points. Substituting these x-values back into the linear equation yields the corresponding y-coordinates. Summing these y-coordinates gives the final value of

-3

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Equate the equations for the line and the parabola to find the x-coordinates of their intersection points.

2x^2 - 5x + 1 = x - 3

Since both equations are equal to

y

, their right-hand sides must be equal at the points of intersection.

2

Rearrange the equation into standard quadratic form

ax^2 + bx + c = 0

.

2x^2 - 6x + 4 = 0

Grouping all terms on one side of the equation allows us to solve for $x.

3

Divide the entire equation by 2 to simplify.

x^2 - 3x + 2 = 0

Simplifying the quadratic equation makes factoring easier.

4

Factor the quadratic equation to solve for

x

.

(x - 1)(x - 2) = 0

, yielding

x = 1

and

x = 2

.

Finding the roots of the quadratic equation gives the x-coordinates of the intersection points.

5

Substitute each x-coordinate back into the linear equation

y = x - 3

to find the corresponding y-coordinates.

For

x_1 = 1

:

y_1 = 1 - 3 = -2

. For

x_2 = 2

:

y_2 = 2 - 3 = -1

.

The intersection points must satisfy both equations in the system.

6

Calculate the sum of the two y-coordinates,

y_1 + y_2

.

y_1 + y_2 = -2 + (-1) = -3

The question asks for the value of the sum of the y-coordinates.

Two polynomial expressions are defined as $P(x) = (2x - 4)(x^2 - 5x + c)$ and $Q(x) = (x^2 + 3x - 4)(2x + a)$ , where $a$ and $c$ are constants. When $P(x)$ is expanded and simplified, it has no $x$ term. If the coefficient of the $x^2$ term in the expanded and simplified form of $Q(x)$ is equal to the coefficient of the $x^2$ term in the expanded and simplified form of $P(x)$ , what is the value of $a$ ?

Cevap: -20

Cevap

The value of

a

is

-20

.

Expanding

P(x) = (2x - 4)(x^2 - 5x + c)

yields

2x^3 - 14x^2 + (2c + 20)x - 4c

. Since there is no

x

term,

2c + 20 = 0

, which means

c = -10

. This leaves the coefficient of the

x^2

term in

P(x)

as

-14

. Expanding

Q(x) = (x^2 + 3x - 4)(2x + a)

yields

2x^3 + (a + 6)x^2 + (3a - 8)x - 4a

, so the coefficient of its

x^2

term is

a + 6

. Setting

a + 6 = -14

and solving for

a

Soru 164Soru →

A construction company is working on two building projects, Project X and Project Y. The quantities of concrete (in tons) and steel (in tons) required for these projects are represented by the matrix $Q$ :

Q = \begin{bmatrix} 80 & 25 \\ 120 & 40 \end{bmatrix}

where the first row represents Project X, the second row represents Project Y, the first column represents concrete, and the second column represents steel.

The purchase cost per ton and the transportation cost per ton for these materials are represented by the matrix $C$ :

C = \begin{bmatrix} 110 & 15 \\ 650 & 45 \end{bmatrix}

where the first row represents concrete, the second row represents steel, the first column represents the purchase cost (in dollars per ton), and the second column represents the transportation cost (in dollars per ton).

If the product matrix $P = QC$ represents the total cost details for the two projects, what is the total transportation cost for Project Y, in dollars?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 3600

Cevap

The total transportation cost for Project Y is 3,600 dollars.

The correct answer is 3,600. To find the total transportation cost for Project Y, we calculate the entry in the second row (Project Y) and second column (transportation cost) of the product matrix

P = QC

. This is calculated as

120 \text{ tons of concrete} \times 15 \text{ dollars per ton} + 40 \text{ tons of steel} \times 45 \text{ dollars per ton} = 1,800 + 1,800 = 3,600

dollars.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the row representing Project Y and the column representing transportation cost

Row 2 of

Q

is

[120, 40]

and Column 2 of

C

is

[15, 45]^T

.

To find the total transportation cost for Project Y, we must compute the entry in the second row (Project Y) and second column (transportation cost) of the product matrix

P = QC

.

2

Multiply the row elements by the corresponding column elements

120 \times 15 = 1800

and

40 \times 45 = 1800

This calculates the individual transportation costs for the concrete and steel required for Project Y.

3

Sum the products to find the total transportation cost

1800 + 1800 = 3600

Adding these individual costs gives the total transportation cost for Project Y.

If $x$ is a real number such that $\frac{(3^x)^4 \cdot 9^{2-x}}{27^{x-1}} = 81$ , what is the value of $x$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 3

Cevap

The value of

x

is 3.

Rewriting the bases in terms of 3, the expression becomes

\frac{3^{4x} \cdot 3^{4-2x}}{3^{3x-3}} = 3^4

. Combining the numerator using the product rule gives

3^{2x+4}

in the numerator. Dividing by the denominator using the quotient rule gives

3^{(2x+4)-(3x-3)} = 3^{-x+7}

. Equating this to

3^4

gives

-x + 7 = 4

, which yields

x = 3

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Express each base in terms of the common base 3

9 = 3^2

,

27 = 3^3

, and

81 = 3^4

Converting all terms to a common base allows the use of exponent rules to combine them.

2

Apply the power of a power rule

(b^m)^n = b^{mn}

to rewrite each exponent

(3^x)^4 = 3^{4x}

,

(3^2)^{2-x} = 3^{4-2x}

, and

(3^3)^{x-1} = 3^{3x-3}

This simplifies individual terms by multiplying their exponents.

3

Apply the product rule of exponents

b^m \cdot b^n = b^{m+n}

to combine the terms in the numerator

3^{4x} \cdot 3^{4-2x} = 3^{4x + 4 - 2x} = 3^{2x + 4}

Multiplying exponential terms with the same base is simplified by adding their exponents.

4

Apply the quotient rule of exponents

\frac{b^m}{b^n} = b^{m-n}

to simplify the fraction

3^{(2x+4) - (3x-3)} = 3^{-x+7}

Dividing exponential terms with the same base is simplified by subtracting the exponent in the denominator from the exponent in the numerator.

5

Equate the exponents of the simplified base 3 expression and base 3 representation of 81

-x + 7 = 4

, which solves to

x = 3

Since the bases are equal, the powers must be equal for the equation to hold true.

Cevap

The greatest integer value of

x

that satisfies the inequality is -1.

The correct answer is -1 because solving the inequality leads to

x \leq -\frac{2}{13}

. Since

-\frac{2}{13}

Cevap: 180

Cevap

180

The correct answer is

180

. By setting up a single-variable linear equation where

a

represents the number of adult tickets, the problem translates to

8a + 5(320 - a) = 2140

. Simplifying this yields

3a + 1600 = 2140

, which simplifies to

3a = 540

and results in

a = 180

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Define variables for the unknown quantities based on the given total.

Let

a

represent the number of adult tickets sold. The number of student tickets sold is represented as

320 - a

.

Since the total number of tickets is

320

, subtracting the number of adult tickets from the total yields the number of student tickets.

2

Construct a linear equation using the ticket prices and the total revenue.

8a + 5(320 - a) = 2140

Multiplying the quantity of each ticket type by its respective price (

8

dollars for adult and

5

dollars for student) yields the total ticket sales revenue of

2,140

dollars.

3

Solve the equation for the variable

a

.

8a + 1600 - 5a = 2140 \implies 3a + 1600 = 2140 \implies 3a = 540 \implies a = 180

Evaluate the outer functions using the results from the first step.

f(f(3)) = f(1) = 2

and

g(g(-1)) = g(-2) = 1

Substitute the inner outputs into the outer functions and look up the new inputs in the table.

3

Add the two resulting values together.

2 + 1 = 3

Combine the two terms to find the total sum requested by the question.

A company sells two types of gift baskets: Standard and Premium. The sales at the company's North and South branches are represented by matrix $S$ :

S = \begin{bmatrix} 12 & 8 \\ 15 & 10 \end{bmatrix}

where the rows represent the North and South branches, respectively, and the columns represent the number of Standard and Premium baskets sold, respectively. The cost of the items inside each basket is represented by matrix $C$ :

C = \begin{bmatrix} x & 24 \\ 30 & y \end{bmatrix}

where the rows represent Standard and Premium baskets, respectively, and the columns represent the cost of food items and the cost of gift items (in dollars), respectively. If the total food item cost at the North branch is $600$ and the total gift item cost at the South branch is $760$ , what is the value of $x + y$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 70

Cevap

The value of

x + y

is 70.

To find the total costs, the sales matrix

S

is multiplied by the unit cost matrix

C

. The product matrix

R = SC

is a

2 \times 2

matrix where the entry in Row 1, Column 1 represents the total food cost at the North branch, and the entry in Row 2, Column 2 represents the total gift cost at the South branch. Setting up the equations

12x + 240 = 600

and

360 + 10y = 760

yields

x = 30

and

y = 40

, which sum to 70.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up the matrix multiplication

R = SC

to represent the total costs.

R = \begin{bmatrix} 12x + 240 & 288 + 8y \\ 15x + 300 & 360 + 10y \end{bmatrix}

The product of the sales matrix and the unit cost matrix yields the total cost matrix, where rows represent the branches and columns represent the cost categories.

2

Identify the expression for the total food item cost at the North branch and solve for

x

.

x = 30

The total food item cost at the North branch is the entry in Row 1, Column 1 of the product matrix, which is

12x + 8(30) = 12x + 240

. Setting this equal to

600

gives

12x + 240 = 600

, which simplifies to

12x = 360

, so

x = 30

.

3

Identify the expression for the total gift item cost at the South branch and solve for

y

.

y = 40

The total gift item cost at the South branch is the entry in Row 2, Column 2 of the product matrix, which is

15(24) + 10y = 360 + 10y

. Setting this equal to

760

gives

360 + 10y = 760

, which simplifies to

10y = 400

, so

y = 40

.

4

Calculate the sum of the variables

x

and

y

.

x + y = 70

Substitute

x = 30

and

y = 40

into the expression

x + y

to find the final answer.

For a certain real number $x$ , the equation $\frac{3}{4}(x - 3) - \frac{1}{3}(2x + 5) = -2$ is true. What is the value of $2x - 5$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 41

Cevap

The value of the expression

2x - 5

is 41.

Solving the linear equation by multiplying both sides by the least common denominator of 12 yields the simplified equation

9(x - 3) - 4(2x + 5) = -24

. Expanding the terms gives

9x - 27 - 8x - 20 = -24

, which simplifies to

x - 47 = -24

. Adding 47 to both sides gives

x = 23

. Finally, evaluating the expression

2x - 5

for

x = 23

results in

2(23) - 5 = 41

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Multiply both sides of the equation by the least common denominator of 12 to eliminate fractions.

9(x - 3) - 4(2x + 5) = -24

Multiplying by the LCD clears all fractional coefficients, making the equation easier to solve.

2

Distribute the constants and expand the terms on the left side of the equation.

9x - 27 - 8x - 20 = -24

Applying the distributive property removes the parentheses.

3

Combine like terms on the left side of the equation.

x - 47 = -24

Simplifying the equation makes it easier to isolate the variable

x

.

4

Isolate the variable

x

by adding 47 to both sides of the equation.

x = 23

This determines the value of the unknown variable

x

5

Substitute

x = 23

into the target expression

2x - 5

Instead of multiplying by the LCD first, distribute the fractions directly:

\frac{3}{4}x - \frac{9}{4} - \frac{2}{3}x - \frac{5}{3} = -2

. Combine the

x

terms:

(\frac{3}{4} - \frac{2}{3})x = \frac{1}{12}x

. Combine the constant terms:

-\frac{9}{4} - \frac{5}{3} = -\frac{27}{12} - \frac{20}{12} = -\frac{47}{12}

. This gives the equation

\frac{1}{12}x - \frac{47}{12} = -2

. Add

\frac{47}{12}

to both sides:

\frac{1}{12}x = -2 + \frac{47}{12} = -\frac{24}{12} + \frac{47}{12} = \frac{23}{12}

. Multiply by 12 to get

x = 23

, then evaluate

2x - 5 = 41

Matrices $A$ and $B$ are defined as:

A = \begin{bmatrix} x & 4 \\ -3 & 2 \end{bmatrix}, \quad B = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & -2 \\ 5 & 3 \end{bmatrix}

Let $C$ represent the product matrix $AB$ , where:

C = \begin{bmatrix} c_{11} & c_{12} \\ c_{21} & c_{22} \end{bmatrix}

If the element $c_{12}$ is equal to $2$ , what is the value of $x$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 5

Cevap

5

To find the entry

c_{12}

in the first row and second column of the product matrix

C = AB

, we calculate the dot product of the first row of matrix

A

and the second column of matrix

B

. The first row of

A

is

[x, 4]

and the second column of

B

is

[-2, 3]^T

. Thus,

c_{12} = x(-2) + 4(3) = -2x + 12

. Setting this equal to the given value of

2

gives the equation

-2x + 12 = 2

. Subtracting

12

from both sides results in

-2x = -10

. Dividing by

-2

yields

x = 5

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the formula for the element

c_{12}

in the product matrix

C = AB

.

c_{12} = -2x + 12

The element

c_{12}

is located in the first row and second column of the product matrix, so it is the product of the first row of

A

, which is

[x, 4]

, and the second column of

B

, which is

[-2, 3]^T

.

2

Set the expression for

c_{12}

equal to the given value of

2

and solve the linear equation for

x

.

x = 5

Setting

-2x + 12 = 2

leads to

-2x = -10

, and dividing both sides by

-2

yields

x = 5

If $x$ is a positive real number such that $\log_2(x) + \log_4(x) + \log_{16}(x) = 7$ , what is the value of $x$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 16

Cevap

The value of

x

is

16

.

By converting all logarithms to base 2, we write

\log_4(x)

as

\frac{1}{2}\log_2(x)

and

\log_{16}(x)

as

\frac{1}{4}\log_2(x)

. Summing these gives

\frac{7}{4}\log_2(x) = 7

, which simplifies to

\log_2(x) = 4

. Converting to exponential form, we find

x = 2^4 = 16

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Apply the change of base formula to express the logarithms with a common base of 2.

\log_4(x) = \frac{1}{2}\log_2(x)

and

\log_{16}(x) = \frac{1}{4}\log_2(x)

, giving the equation

\log_2(x) + \frac{1}{2}\log_2(x) + \frac{1}{4}\log_2(x) = 7

.

Rewriting the terms with a common base allows them to be combined algebraically.

2

Combine the coefficients of the like terms on the left-hand side.

\frac{7}{4}\log_2(x) = 7

.

The sum of the coefficients is

1 + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{4}{4} + \frac{2}{4} + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{7}{4}

.

3

Isolate the logarithm term by dividing or multiplying by the reciprocal coefficient.

\log_2(x) = 4

.

Multiplying both sides by

\frac{4}{7}

solves for the value of

\log_2(x)

.

4

Convert the equation from logarithmic form to its equivalent exponential form.

x = 2^4 = 16

.

By definition,

\log_b(a) = c

is equivalent to

b^c = a

.
