Earl works a total of 3 days in a week. From Monday through Friday, he works in the bookstore on 1 day and in the athletic center on 2 days. On Saturday and Sunday, he cooks food on 50% of the days, which would be a total of 1 day. Therefore, he works a total of 3 days in a week.

To calculate the percentage of Monday through Friday that Earl works, we need to first calculate the total number of days in a week, which is 7. Then, we need to subtract  the weekend days, which are Saturday and Sunday, leaving us with 5 days.

Finally, we can calculate the percentage by dividing the number of days Earl works from Monday through Friday (which is 1) by the total number of weekdays (which is 5), and multiplying by 100. So, Earl works 20% of Monday through Friday.

In summary, Earl works 3 days in a week, 1 day in the bookstore and 2 days in the athletic center. He also cooks food on 1 day during the weekend. Earl works 20% of Monday through Friday.

Answer: To determine if the series –128 + 96 – 72 + 54 – ... is a geometric series, we need to check if the ratio between consecutive terms is constant.

Let's calculate the ratio between the second and first terms:

96 / (-128) = -3/4

Now let's calculate the ratio between the third and second terms:

-72 / 96 = -3/4

The ratio between the fourth and third terms is:

54 / (-72) = -3/4

We can see that the ratio between consecutive terms is always the same: -3/4. Therefore, the series –128 + 96 – 72 + 54 – ... is a geometric series with a common ratio of -3/4.

So the answer is r equals negative three fourths.

Step-by-step explanation:

The series provided is a geometric series because each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous term by -3/4. Therefore, the common ratio 'r' equals -3/4.

In a geometric series, each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous term by a fixed, non-zero number called the common ratio. In the series given –128 + 96 – 72 + 54 – …, the second term (96) divided by the first term (-128) equals -3/4, the third term (-72) divided by the second term (96) also equals -3/4, and so on. This constant ratio between successive terms demonstrates that this is indeed a geometric series. Therefore, the statement that proves this is a geometric series is 'r equals negative three fourths' where r represents the common ratio.

Where the function f(x) = x² + 2x - 3 is given, note that the x-intercepts of the function f(x) are -3 and 1, and the minimum value of the function is -4. See the attached graph.

To find the minimum and maximum points of the function f(x), we can complete the square:

f(x) = x^2 + 2x - 3

= (x + 1)^2 - 4

We can see that the function is in the vertex form f(x) = a(x - h)^2 + k, where the vertex is (-1, -4).

Since the coefficient of the x^2 term is positive, the parabola opens upwards, and the vertex is the minimum point. Therefore, the minimum value of the function f(x) is -4.

To find the x-intercepts, we can set f(x) = 0:

(x + 1)^2 - 4 = 0

(x + 1)^2 = 4

Taking the square root of both sides, we get:

x + 1 = ±2

x = -1 ± 2

Therefore, the x-intercepts of the function f(x) are x = -3 and x = 1.

In summary, the x-intercepts of the function f(x) are -3 and 1, and the minimum value of the function is -4, which occurs at the vertex (-1, -4).

Angle WXY is vertical to angle WXZ, they are equal, therefore, angle WXY is also 141 degrees.

To find the angle WXY, we need to use the properties of angles formed by intersecting chords in a circle. The angles formed by intersecting chords are related to the arcs intercepted by those chords.

Given that the arc WVX is equal to (13x + 9) and the angle WXZ is equal to (5x + 36), we can set up an equation:

Angle WXZ = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] * Arc WVX

(5x + 36) = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] * (13x + 9)

To solve for x, we'll multiply both sides of the equation by 2 to eliminate the fraction:

2(5x + 36) = 13x + 9

10x + 72 = 13x + 9

Subtracting 10x and 9 from both sides, we get:

72 - 9 = 13x - 10x

63 = 3x

Dividing both sides by 3, we find:

x = 21

Now that we have the value of x, we can substitute it back into the equation for the angle WXZ to find its value:

Angle WXZ = 5x + 36 = 5(21) + 36 = 105 + 36 = 141 degrees

Since angle WXY is vertical to angle WXZ, they are equal. Therefore, the angle WXY is also 141 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

4 1/3 = 13/3 = 39/9

2 2/9 = 20/9

To compute the integral JSS, udv, where U is the part of the ball of radius 3, centered at 0,0,0), that lies in the 1st octant, we can use spherical coordinates. Since the region is defined as having all three coordinates nonnegative, we can set our limits of integration as follows: 0 ≤ ρ ≤ 3, 0 ≤ θ ≤ π/2, and 0 ≤ φ ≤ π/2.

Using the Jacobian transformation, we have:

JSS, udv = ∫∫∫U ρ²sinφ dρdθdφ

Substituting in our limits of integration, we get:

JSS, udv = ∫0^π/2 ∫0^π/2 ∫0³ ρ²sinφ dρdθdφ

Evaluating the integral, we get:

JSS, udv = (3³/3) [(sin(π/2) - sin(0))] [(1/2) (π/2 - 0)]

JSS, udv = 9/2 π

Therefore, the value of the integral JSS, udv, over the part of the ball of radius 3 that lies in the 1st octant is 9/2π.
To compute the integral JSS, udv, over the region U, which is the part of the ball of radius 3 centered at (0,0,0) and lies in the first octant, we will use spherical coordinates for this computation as it's more preferable.

In spherical coordinates, the volume element is given by dv = ρ² * sin(φ) * dρ * dφ * dθ, where ρ is the radial distance, φ is the polar angle (between 0 and π/2 for the first octant), and θ is the azimuthal angle (between 0 and π/2 for the first octant).

Now, we need to set up the integral for the volume of the region U:
JSS, udv = ∫∫∫ (ρ² * sin(φ) * dρ * dφ * dθ), with limits of integration as follows:
ρ: 0 to 3 (radius of the ball),
φ: 0 to π/2 (for the first octant),
θ: 0 to π/2 (for the first octant).

So, the integral becomes:
JSS, udv = ∫(0 to π/2) ∫(0 to π/2) ∫(0 to 3) (ρ² * sin(φ) * dρ * dφ * dθ)

By evaluating this integral, we will obtain the volume of the region U in the first octant.

Using the t-distribution table with a sample size of 36 and a significance level of 0.05, we find the critical t-value to be ±2.03 (with 34 degrees of freedom, which is n-1).

To explain, we use the t-distribution to find the critical values because the population standard deviation is known. Since the alternative hypothesis is two-tailed (H_A: μ ≠ 40), we need to find two critical values.

With a sample size of 36, the degrees of freedom are 34 (n-1), so we use a t-distribution table with 34 degrees of freedom and a significance level of 0.05. From the table, we find the critical t-value to be ±2.03.

Therefore, if the calculated t-value falls outside of this range, we can reject the null hypothesis H0: μ = 40 in favor of the alternative hypothesis H_A: μ ≠ 40.

The absolute maximum of f(x) = 4x / (x² + 1) on the interval [-4,0] occurs at x = 2 and the absolute minimum occurs at x = -4.

To find the absolute extrema, we first find the critical points by setting the derivative of f(x) equal to zero:

f'(x) = (4(x² + 1) - 8x²) / (x² + 1)² = 0

Simplifying, we get:

4 - 4x² = 0

x² = 1

x = ±1

Since x = -4 and x = 0 are also endpoints of the interval, we evaluate f(x) at these five points:

f(-4) = -8/17

f(-1) = -4/5

f(0) = 0

f(1) = 4/5

f(2) = 8/5

Answer:

504 cm^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

By Pythagoras:

(2x + 5)^2 = (2x + 3)^2 + (x - 14)^2

4x^2 + 20x + 25 = 4x^2 + 12x + 9 + x^2 - 28x + 196

20x - 12x + 28x + 25 - 9 - 196 = x^2

x^2 - 36x + 180 = 0

(x - 6)(x - 30) = 0

x = 6, 30.

As one of the sides is x - 14, x mst be 30 as its length has to be positive.

So the area of the triangle

The value of M is a^4.

Given the information, we can express the given logarithms as follows:

1) log_a(MN) = 6
2) log_a(N/M) = 2
3) log_a(N^m) = 16

From equation (1), we can write:
MN = a^6

From equation (2), we can write:
N/M = a^2 → N = a^2 * M

Now, substitute N from equation (2) into equation (3):
log_a((a^2 * M)^m) = 16

Using the power rule of logarithms, we get:
m * log_a(a^2 * M) = 16

Since log_a(a^2 * M) = 2log_a(a) + log_a(M) = 2 + log_a(M), we have:
m * (2 + log_a(M)) = 16

We don't have enough information to determine the value of 'm', but we don't need it to find the value of 'M'.

Now, substitute N back into the equation MN = a^6:
M * a^2 * M = a^6

Divide both sides by M * a^2:
M = a^(6-2) = a^4

So, the value of M is a^4.

If both belts are​ used, it will take 2.25 minutes to move the cans to the storage area

To solve this problem, we need to use the concept of rate of work. We know that the larger belt can move 200 pounds of aluminum in 3 minutes, which means its rate of work is 200/3 = 66.67 pounds per minute. Similarly, the smaller belt can move the same quantity of cans in 9 minutes, which means its rate of work is 200/9 = 22.22 pounds per minute.

When both belts are used together, their rates of work add up, so the total rate of work is 66.67 + 22.22 = 88.89 pounds per minute. We can use this rate of work to find how long it will take to move the cans to the storage area.

Let's assume that it takes x minutes to move the cans using both belts. Then, we can set up the following equation:

88.89x = 200

Step-by-step explanation:

a probability is always the ratio

desired cases / totally possible cases.

we have here a total of 6 + 8 + 6 = 20 marbles.

to not pull a blue or yellow marble is in this context the same event as pulling a red marble.

so, the desired cases are 6 (red).

which we can get directly from the 6 red marbles, or by counting off the undesired cases : 20 - 8 - 6 = 6.

and the probabilty for not pulling a blue or yellow marble (or simply pulling a red marble) is

6/20 = 3/10 = 0.3

Answer: Therefore, the length of a blue bead is 2.5 cm, and the length of a green bead is 1.2 cm. And the length of the bracelet is:

10 × (2.5 + 1.2) = 37 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

To represent the length of the bracelet, we need to determine the length of each repetition of the basic pattern and then multiply it by the number of times the pattern is repeated.

The length of each repetition of the basic pattern is the sum of the length of one blue bead and one green bead, which is:

B + 1.2 cm

Since the basic pattern is repeated 10 times, the total length of the bracelet is:

10 × (B + 1.2) cm

And we know that the total length of the bracelet is 37 cm, so we can set up an equation:

10 × (B + 1.2) = 37

Simplifying the equation, we can divide both sides by 10:

B + 1.2 = 3.7

Subtracting 1.2 from both sides, we get:

B = 2.5

Therefore, the length of a blue bead is 2.5 cm, and the length of a green bead is 1.2 cm. And the length of the bracelet is:

10 × (2.5 + 1.2) = 37 cm.

The interest earned on Option A is $2400 and Option B is $666.18.  Option A is the better option as Option A has a higher total value of $5400 compared to Option B's total value of $3666.18.

To calculate the interest earned and total value for each option, we can use the following formulas:

For Option A:

- Interest earned = principal x rate x time = 3000 x 0.04 x 20 = $2400

- Total value = principal + interest earned = 3000 + 2400 = $5400

For Option B:

- Interest earned = principal x (1 + rate/n)^(n x time) - principal = 3000 x (1 + 0.02/1)^(1 x 10) - 3000 = $666.18

- Total value = principal + interest earned = 3000 + 666.18 = $3666.18

Therefore, the interest earned and total value for each option are as follows:

Option A:

- Interest earned = $2400

- Total value = $5400

Option B:

- Interest earned = $666.18

- Total value = $3666.18

To compare the two options, we need to consider the total value of each option. Option A has a higher total value of $5400 compared to Option B's total value of $3666.18. Therefore, Option A is the better option.
