Choose 1 answer:

Answers

Answer:

DE = 4.24

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram is not shown; However, the question can still be solved without the diagram.

Having said that,.

Given that

DF = EF = 3

This implies that DE is the hypothenus and will be solved using Pythagoras theorem.

DE² = EF² + DF²

Substitute 3 for EF and DF

DE² = 3² + 3²

DE² = 9 + 9

DE² = 18

Take Square Root of both sides

DE = √18

DE = 4.242640687119285

DE = 4.24 (Approximated)

Find the 12th term of the arithmetic sequence whose common difference is d=6 and whose first term is a, = 2.

Answers

Answer:

The 12th term is 68

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sequence is an arithmetic sequence

For an nth term in an arithmetic sequence

A(n) = a + ( n - 1)d

where a is the first term

n is the number of terms

d is the common difference

From the question

d = 6

a = 2

n = 12

So the 12th term of the sequence is

A(12) = 2 + (12-1)6

= 2 + 11(6)

= 2 + 66

A(12) = 68

A company has determined that its weekly profit is a function of the number of items that it sells. Which equation could represent the weekly profit in thousands of dollars, y, when the company sells x items? y squared = 4 x squared minus 100 y = negative x squared + 50 x minus 300 x = negative y squared minus 400 x squared = negative 6 y squared + 200

Answers

Answer:

B. y= -x^2 + 50x - 300

Step-by-step explanation:

Options given

A. y^2=4x^2 - 100

B. y= -x^2 + 50x - 300

C. x= -y^2 - 400

D. x^2= -6y^2 + 200

We are to find profits (y) function in thousands of dollars if the company sells x items.

We will use elimination method to eliminate the wrong options above in order to find the correct answer

Option A. y^2= 4x^2 - 100 is used to find the square of the profit function

Option B. y= -x^2 + 50x - 300 is used to calculate profit (y) function

Option C. x= -y^2 - 400 is for the calculation of the items x sold

Option D. x^2= -6y^2 + 200 is to find items x sold squared.

Since, we are required to find the profit (y) function, option A, C and D will be eliminated.

We are left with option B which is the correct answer to the question.

The weekly profits (y) function in thousands of dollars when the company sells x items is

B. y= -x^2 + 50x - 300

O 5,572.5 in^3
O 696.6 in^3
O 174.1 in^3
O 126.6 in^3

Answers

Answer:

696.6 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a sphere is 4/3πr³

The diameter of 11 in. is given. Therefore, the radius is 5.5 (11/2 = 5.5).

1. Set up the equation

4/3(3.14)(5.5³)

2. Solve

= 696.6 in³

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{Volume = 696.9 \ in.^3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter = 11 inches

Radius = 5.5 inches

Volume of sphere = [tex]\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3[/tex]

Where r = 5.5 inches

Volume = [tex]\frac{4}{3} (3.14)(5.5)^3[/tex]

Volume = [tex]\frac{4}{3} (3.14)(166.375)[/tex]

Volume = [tex]\frac{2090.7}{3}[/tex]

Volume = 696.9 in.³

Sudhir bought an almirah for RS 13600 and spent RS 400 on its transportation . He sold it for RS 16800 . find the his gain percent

Answers

Answer:

His gain percent is 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we want to find the percentage gain of the business.

We need the following parameters;

The cost price which is the sum of the amount she bought the goods + the amount spent on transport

Using the values we have in the question;

The cost price will be;

13,600 + 400 = Rs 14,000

The selling price = Rs 16,800

Mathematically the percentage gain will be;

% gain = (selling price- cost price)/selling price * 100%

% gain = (16,800-14,000)/14,000 * 100/1

% gain = 2800/14,000 * 100/1 = 1/5 * 100/1 = 20%

SOLVE EACH EQUATION BY TAKING SQUARE ROOTS. 1.) 3(x-5)^2=48 2.)2x^2-56=42

Answers

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)

3(x - 5)² = 48 ( divide both sides by 3 )

(x - 5)² = 16 ( take the square root of both sides )

x - 5 = ± [tex]\sqrt{16}[/tex] = ± 4 ( add 5 to both sides )

x = 5 ± 4

Thus

x = 5 - 4 = 1

x = 5 + 4 = 9

Solutions are x = 1, x = 9

(2)

2x² - 56 = 42 ( add 56 to both sides )

2x² = 98 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x² = 49 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = ± [tex]\sqrt{49}[/tex] = ± 7

Solutions are x = - 7, x = 7

A random sample of 121 automobiles traveling on an interstate showed an average speed of 65 mph. From past information, it is known that the standard deviation of the population is 22 mph. The standard error of the mean is

Answers

Answer: 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of samples = 121

Average speed (sample mean) = 65mph

Population standard deviation = 22 mph

The standard error of the mean is:

Standard error of the mean(S.Em)

Standard error of the mean is the proportion of the population standard deviation and the square root of the sample size.

S.Em = standard deviation / √same size

S.Em = 22 / √121

S.Em = 22 / 11

S.Em = 2

Hi there! :)

Answer:

B. 0 solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation 7(x + 2) = 7x - 10

Simplify:

7(x + 2) = 7x - 10

Distribute the 7 with the terms inside of the parenthesis:

7x + 14 = 7x - 10

Subtract "7x" and 14 from both sides:

7x - 7x = -10 - 14

0 ≠ - 24. The equation has no solutions.

Examine the diagram of circle C. Points A, B, and Q are on circle C. Given that m∠ACB=52∘, what is the arc length of AQB⌢?

Answers

Hey there! :)

Answer:

Third choice: 13π/15 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by finding the circumference of the entire circle. Use the formula

C = 2rπ to solve:

C = 2(3)π

C = 6π.

Next, we can set up a proportion to find the arc length of AQB:

[tex]\frac{6\pi }{360}= \frac{x}{52}[/tex]

Cross multiply:

52 · 6π = 360 · x

312π = 360x

Divide both sides by 360:

312π/360 = 360x/360

x = 13π/15 in.

Write the equation of the conic section satisfying the given conditions. focus at the pole, e = 3/4, horizontal directrix 2 units above the pole

Answers

Answer:

The equation in the polar form is;

[tex]r = \dfrac{6}{4 + 3 \cdot sin(\theta)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

 e = 3/4  > 1, we have an hyperbola    

The polar equation of a conic is of the form;

For vertical directrix

[tex]r = \dfrac{k \cdot e}{1\pm e \cdot cos (\theta)}[/tex]

For horizontal directrix

[tex]r = \dfrac{k \cdot e}{1\pm e \cdot sin(\theta)}[/tex]

Where;

k = Distance from the focus to the directrix = 2

We have;

[tex]r = \dfrac{2 \cdot \dfrac{3}{4} }{1 + \dfrac{3}{4} \cdot sin(\theta)}[/tex]

[tex]r = \dfrac{\dfrac{3}{2} }{1 + \dfrac{3}{4} \cdot sin(\theta)}[/tex]

Which gives the equation in the polar form as follows;
