Answer 1

Answer:

a = 16

b = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the design 16 inches is represented by the point (0, 16) and length of 12 inches by (1, 12).

That means these points lie on the graph of the function 'f' represented by,

f(x) = a(b)ˣ

For the point (0, 16),

f(0) = a(b)⁰

16 = a(1)

a = 16

For another point (1, 12),

f(1) = a(b)¹

12 = ab

12 = 16(b) [Since a = 16]

b = [tex]\frac{12}{16}[/tex]

b = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Therefore, values of a and b are 16 and [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] respectively.

Answer with explanation:

To write an inequality and show on a number line all numbers: greater than (−3) but less than or equal to 3

Let n be the number, then -3 < n ≤3 .

On number line we mark open circle at -3 (since it has a strictly less than sign) and a closed circle at 3  (since it has a less than and equal to sign) .

To the required inequality that shows all the numbers greater than (−3) but less than or equal to 3 : -3 < n ≤3 and the number line is represented below.

Find the area of the shaded regions.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]A = A_c-A_t=4\pi -8=4.5664cm^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the shaded region can be calculated as the area of the semicircle less the area of the right triangle.

The area of the right triangle can be calculated as:

[tex]A_t=\frac{b*h}{2} =\frac{LM*MN}{2}[/tex]

Where LM and MN have the same length because the internal angles are L=45°, M=90°, and N=45°. So the area is:

[tex]A_t=\frac{4*4}{2}=8[/tex]

The diameter of the circle can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem as:

[tex]D=\sqrt{(LM)^2+(MN)^2} =\sqrt{4^2+4^4}=4\sqrt{2}[/tex]

So, the radius is [tex]r=2\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Finally, the area of the semicircle is:

[tex]A_c=\frac{\pi*r^2 }{2}=\frac{\pi*(2\sqrt{2})^2 }{2}=4\pi[/tex]

So, the area of the shaded region is:

[tex]A = A_c-A_t=4\pi -8=4.5664cm^2[/tex]

A circle has a center at (4, -7) and a radius of 4 units. Write an equation of this circle.

Answers

Answer:

(x – 4)^2 + (y + 7)^2 = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a circle is:

(x – h)^2 + (y – k)^2 = r^2

(h, k) represents the coordinates of the center of the circle

r represents the radius of the circle

If you plug in the given information, you get:

(x – 4)^2 + (y – (-7))^2 = 4^2

which simplifies into:

(x – 4)^2 + (y + 7)^2 = 16

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME. ITS HARD AND I CANT SOLVE IT. ILL MARK BRAINLIEST

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

First of all, we need to find the equation of the line.

It will be something like y = ax + b (we need to find a and b).

Then the graph is the part of the plan which is above this line, so the inequality will be

[tex]\large \boxed{\sf \ \ y\geq ax+b \ \ }[/tex]

There is only one line passing by two different points, right?

We need to find two points of this line, the x-axis gives the x of the point and the y-axis give the y of the point.

We can see on the graph that (-1,-1) and (6,13) are two points of this line.

I attached a graph with the two points A (-1,-1) and B (6,13).

We need to solve y = ax + b to find a and b which means:

(-1) = a(-1 )+ b <=> -1 = -a + b <=> -a + b = -1

(13) = a(6) + b <=> 6a + b = 13

To eliminate b, we can subtract the first equation from the second one.

6a + b -(-a) - b = 13 - (-1) = 13 + 1 = 14

<=> 6a + a = 7a = 14 we can divide by 7 both parts of the equation.

[tex]\large \boxed{\sf \ \ a=\dfrac{14}{7}=2 \ \ }[/tex]

And then, b = -1 + a = -1 + 2 = 1

[tex]\large \boxed{\sf \ \ b=1 \ \ }[/tex]

The equation of the line is then [tex]y=2x+1[/tex]

So, the inequality is:

[tex]\Large \boxed{\sf \ \ y\geq 2x+1 \ \ }[/tex]

And this is the answer of the question 1.

2. First, we find the equation of the line by finding two points on this line. Then, we deduce the inequality from the equality as the graph is all the points above the line (as explained above).

3. A real-life example is the following.

My parents gave $1 to my sister and they will give her $2 every day.

So today at x = 0 she has $1 and her pocket money will be represented by the line. And I told my parents that there were no way I can get less than my little sister. To help them understand what can be an acceptable deal I provided this graph, and I told them to only look for t positive of course.

The label for the x-axis is the time.

The label for the y-axis is the pocket money in $

After one day x = 1 my sister has $3 (point on the line), a possible solution for my pocket money is $6, $14 (two points from the graph) is also a solution of course :-)

Hope this helps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, let's note v the rate of the boat and r the rate of the current. We can write the following

[tex]\dfrac{135}{v-r}=3=\dfrac{183}{v+r}[/tex]

It means that

[tex]135(v+r)=183(v-r)\\\\135 v + 135r=183v-183r\\\\\text{ *** We regroup the terms in v on the right and the ones in r to the left***}\\\\(135+183)r=(183-135)v\\\\318r=48v\\\\\text{ *** We divide by 48 both sides ***}\\\\\boxed{v = \dfrac{318}{48} \cdot r= \dfrac{159}{24} \cdot r}[/tex]

But we can as well use the second equation:

[tex]3(v+r)=183\\\\v+r=\dfrac{183}{3}=61\\\\\dfrac{159}{24}r+r=61\\\\\dfrac{159+24}{24}r=61\\\\\boxed{r = \dfrac{61*24}{183}=8}[/tex]

and then

[tex]\boxed{v=\dfrac{159*8}{24}=53}[/tex]

When a force of 36 Newtons is applied to springs S1 and S2, the displacement of the springs is 6 centimeters and 9 cm, respectively. What is the difference between the spring constants of the two springs?

Answers

Answer:

200 N/m

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearranging the formula F = kx, you find that k = F/x. For the first spring,

F = 36 N and x = 0.06 m (6 cm). So the spring constant, F/x, is 36N/0.06m = 600 N/m

For the second spring, F = 36 N and x = 0.09 m. F/x = 36N/0.09m = 400 N/m

The difference between these values is 200 N/m, and that's the answer.

When testing the claim that p 1p1equals=p 2p2​, a test statistic of zequals=2.04 is obtained. Find the ​p-value obtained from this test statistic.

Answers

Answer:

0.0414 with an upper tailed test

Step-by-step explanation:

Claim: P1P1 = P2P2

The above is a null hypothesis

The alternative hypothesis for a two-tailed test would be:

P1P1 \=/ P2P2

Where "\=/" represents "not equal to".

Using a z-table or z-calculator, we derive the p-value (probability value) for the z-score 2.04

With an upper tailed test, the

2 × [probability that z>2.04] = 2[0.0207] = 0.0414

This is the p-value for the test statistic.

Focus is on the alternative hypothesis.

There are 42 students in an elementary statistics class.

(b) If the sports report begins at 11:10, what is the probability that he misses part of the report if he waits until grading is done before turning on the TV?
2

Answers

Answer:

A) 0.99413

B) 0.00022

Step-by-step explanation:

A) First of all let's find the total grading time from 6:50 P.M to 11:00 P.M.:

Total grading time; X = 11:00 - 6:50 = 4hours 10minutes = 250 minutes

Now since we are given an expected value of 5 minutes, the mean grading time for the whole population would be:

μ = n*μ_s ample = 42 × 5 = 210 minutes

While the standard deviation for the population would be:

σ = √nσ_sample = √(42 × 6) = 15.8745 minutes

To find the z-score, we will use the formula;

z = (x - μ)/σ

Thus;

z = (250 - 210)/15.8745

z = 2.52

From the z-distribution table attached, we have;

P(Z < 2.52) ≈ 0.99413

B) solving this is almost the same as in A above, the only difference is an additional 10 minutes to the time.

Thus, total time is now 250 + 10 = 260 minutes

Similar to the z-formula in A above, we have;

z = (260 - 210)/15.8745

z = 3.15

P(Z > 3.15) = 0.00022

How far apart are the gift shop and the science lab
Please answer this correctly without making mistakes

Answers

The answer is 86.4 km

Explanation:

The graph shows the gift shop is to the east of the science lab, and, between the gift shop and the science lab it is the art supply. Besides this, the description of the graph provides the distance between the art supply and the science lab, which is 40.0, as well as, the distance between the art supply and the gift shop, which is 46.4 kilometers.

In this context, it is possible to calculate the distance from the science lab to the gift shop by adding the partial distances, considering the art supply as a middle point in the map. This means the distance from the lab to the gift shop = 40.0 km (distance from the lab to the art supply) + 46.4 km (distance from the art supply to the gift shop) = 86.4 km.

Your integrand is missing some symbols. My best interpretation is the following integral:

[tex]I=\displaystyle\int\frac{x^4+18x^2+4}{x^5+30x^3+20x}\,\mathrm dx[/tex]

Decompose into partial fractions; we're looking for an expansion of the form

[tex]=(a+b)x^4+cx^3+(30a+d)x^2+ex+20a[/tex]

Matching up coefficients tells us that

[tex]\begin{cases}a+b=1\\c=0\\30a+d=18\\e=0\\20a=4\end{cases}\implies a=\dfrac15,b=\dfrac45,d=12[/tex]

so that

assume that when adults with smartphones are randomly selected 15 use them in meetings or classes if 15 adult smartphones are randomly selected, find the probability that at least 4 of them use their smartphones

Answers

Answer:

The probability that at least 4 of them use their smartphones is 0.1773.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that when adults with smartphones are randomly selected 15% use them in meetings or classes.

Also, 15 adult smartphones are randomly selected.

Let X = Number of adults who use their smartphones

The above situation can be represented through the binomial distribution;

[tex]P(X = r) = \binom{n}{r}\times p^{r} \times (1-p)^{n-r} ; n = 0,1,2,3,.......[/tex]

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 15 adult smartphones

           r = number of success = at least 4

           p = probability of success which in our question is the % of adults

                 who use them in meetings or classes, i.e. 15%.

So, X ~ Binom(n = 15, p = 0.15)

Now, the probability that at least 4 of them use their smartphones is given by = P(X [tex]\geq[/tex] 4)

P(X [tex]\geq[/tex] 4) = 1 - P(X = 0) - P(X = 1) - P(X = 2) - P(X = 3)

= [tex]1- \binom{15}{0}\times 0.15^{0} \times (1-0.15)^{15-0}-\binom{15}{1}\times 0.15^{1} \times (1-0.15)^{15-1}-\binom{15}{2}\times 0.15^{2} \times (1-0.15)^{15-2}-\binom{15}{3}\times 0.15^{3} \times (1-0.15)^{15-3}[/tex]

= [tex]1- (1\times 1\times 0.85^{15})-(15\times 0.15^{1} \times 0.85^{14})-(105 \times 0.15^{2} \times 0.85^{13})-(455 \times 0.15^{3} \times 0.85^{12})[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

83.0°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ∆XYZ, with 3 known sides, to find angle X, apply the Law of Cosines, c² = a² + b² - 2ab*cos(C).

For convenience sake, this formula can be rewritten to make the angle we are looking for the subject of the formula.

Thus, we would have this following:

[tex] cos(C) = \frac{a^2 + b^2 - c^2}{2ab} [/tex]

Where,

C = X = ?

a = 8 ft

b = 16 ft

c = 17 ft

Plug in the stated values into the formula and solve for X

[tex] cos(X) = \frac{8^2 + 16^2 - 17^2}{2*8*16} [/tex]

[tex] cos(X) = \frac{320 - 289}{256} [/tex]

[tex] cos(X) = \frac{31}{256} [/tex]

[tex] cos(X) = 0.1211 [/tex]

[tex] X = cos^{-1}(0.1211) [/tex]

[tex] X = 83.0 [/tex] (to nearest tenth)

In recent survey, a school district randomly dialed 300 parent phone numbers and asked whether the family read to their toddlers at least three nights per week. 271 of the parents said that they did.
(a) Nationally , 72% of families read to their toddlers at least three nights per week. Does this data provide evidence that more parents at this district read to their children than the national average ? Show all steps in your process.
(b) Name two likely sources of bias in this survey. Write one sentence to explain each.

Answers

Answer:

a) We reject H₀ we have enough evidence for that

b) 1.-The survey was made over a district, results will surely be different if the survey is carried out over a whole state ( considering urban and rural areas)

2.-In a district we find an equalized level of salaries, which could be associated with a similar level of habits

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to develop a proportion test. One tail-test

Population proportion mean (national proportion)  p₀  = 72 %

Sample information

sample proportion  271/300         p = 0,90      p = 90 %

We assume Confidence Interval  90 %     then α = 0,1

Test Hypothesis

Null Hypothesis                                 H₀     p   =  p₀

Alternative Hypothesis                       Hₐ    p   >  p₀

As  α = 0,1 and    

We look at z-table for z(c) and find     z(c) = 1,28

And we compute z(s)  as

z(s) = ( p - p₀ ) √  (p₀q₀/n

z(s) =  ( 0,9 - 0,72 ) /√(0,72)*(0,28)/300

z(s) =  0,18 / √0,1296/300

z(s) =  0,18/ 0,026

z(s) =   6,92

z(s) > z(c)      6,92 > 1,28

As z(s) is bigger than z(c), z(s) is in the rejection region, so we reject the null hypothesis. We have enough evidence to claim that the proportion in the district is bigger than the national one.

b)1. The survey was made over a district, results will surely be different if the survey is carried out over a whole state ( considering urban and rural areas)

2.-In a district we find an equalized level of salaries, which could be associated with a similar level of habits

A catering service offers 11 appetizers, 12 main courses, and 8 desserts. A customer is to select 9 appetizers, 2 main courses, and 3 desserts for a banquet. In how many ways can this be done?

Answers

Answer:  203,280

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A catering service offers 11 appetizers, 12 main courses, and 8 desserts.

Number of combinations of choosing r things out of n = [tex]^nC_r=\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}[/tex]

A customer is to select 9 appetizers, 2 main courses, and 3 desserts for a banquet.

Total number of ways to do this: [tex]^{11}C_9\times ^{12}C_2\times^{8}C_3[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{11!}{9!2!}\times\dfrac{12!}{2!10!}\times\dfrac{8!}{3!5!}\\\\=\dfrac{11\times10}{2}\times\dfrac{12\times11}{2}\times\dfrac{8\times7\times6}{3\times2}\\\\= 203280[/tex]

hence , this can be done in 203,280 ways.
