If 18 games are scheduled for this year, write an inequality that represents the total number of points the team must equal or exceed to meet thier season goal

This has to be differentiated using f(x) = [f(x+h) - f(x)]/h and taking the limit as h tends to 0.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhcalculus!

A friend and I are having an argument and she says that "O-" blood types can only exist in the first child between a mother and father. Is she right? I know the blood type is rare as he or she is the universal donor, but it can't be as common as being the first child, right?

Is there anyway linear programming problems can be solved in a TI-83 graphing calculator? It solves gauss-jordan problems, but does it solve linear progamming problems using the simplex method? I would greatly appreciate some help with this. Thanks!

a^(n) - b^(n) = (a-b)^(n) + nk(a-b)
if either "a" or "b" is odd and n is 4 or at least a prime then "k" will be an +ve natural number.
Prove that then it is impossible to write
(a-b)^(n) + nk(a-b) = 1
for n>2.

When you heat a pot of water to boiling, before there's any sign of bubbles, the water begins to make a sort of metallic hissing noise. What causes it?

andromeda galaxy, and really doesnt' like us at all.
they find us very annoying. they feel earth to be a cosmic
nuisance, a blip that must go bye bye. so should we then
appropriate $100 trillion and help defend the milky way galaxy?
for defense. the steering councils want to know how you
feel about this.

If I was trying to find the velocity of something in cm, could I use 9.8m/s^2 or would I have to convert that acceleration into cm?

Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 10 cubic feet per minute. It forms a pile in the shape of a right circular cone, such that the ration of the base diameter to the height is always equal to 1. How fast is the height of thepile increasing when the pile is 17 feet high?

Can someone explain how to do this problem??

thanks

this is most likely solved by a series, possibly a power series.
We are given unlimited number of identical, very thin dominoes. The length of a domino is 2 cm and it's mass is neglegable (10 ^ -4314 gram per domino).
Suppose we stack them(assume we are infinitely powerful), one on top of the other, so that the stack advances horizontally in one direction because each is offset a little. the top domino is offset 1cm, and as we move down the stack they are offset progressively less from each other so as to keep the center of gravity. the stack is kept stable only by gravity.
1) show that the stack can advance infinite distance. HINT: numerate the dominoes in a stack from the top. Note that a stack of two dominoes can advance 1cm since the center of the first domino should be above the edge of the second domino. Place the third domino underneath the first two dominoes so that the edge of the third domino is below the center of the stack of the two dominoes that has been built already.

Described as percent operation.

Not cheating in homework, have a study book for a Nurse Entrance Exam...but examples not too clear or not enough info. or maybe I'm dodo right now...haven't done this math for awhile!

The reason for the fly wheel is an alternative to batteries in electric cars. But the flywheel would need to be heavy and fast to carry enough energy. It would act like a super power gyroscope bolted to the floor of the car. How would the car's normal handling be affected?

...(continued) in its small mammal population. The function M(t)=700(1.3)^ t can be used to estimate the number of small mammals on the premises within t years if hawks, owls, and similar birds fail to return.

Estimate the number of small mammals in the area 2 years after the birds' decline.

*Round to the nearest whole number

There is a graph for this one as well. Any help?
