Solve for x in the equation X^2-16^x=0

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2- 16^x = 0x^2 =  16^xx^2 = 4^2xx = 4^xlogx = xlog41/x×logx = log4log(x^1/x) = log4x^(1/x) = 4

At this point you can guess and try. And it seems that x = -1/2, lets check:

(-1/2)^(1 /-1/2)= (-1/2)^-2= 2^2= 4

So, this is correct: x= -1/2

Find the exact value of each expression, if it defined. ( if answer is undefined, enter undefined) tan (-1)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]tan(-1) \approx -0.02[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

[tex]tan(-1)[/tex]

The tangent of -1 is defined, it's around -0.02.

The tangent is a trigonometric function with a period of [tex]\pi[/tex], where each period is separated by a vertical asymptote which indicates that the function is not determined through all its domain, that's what the question refers to when it says "if is undefined, enter undefined".

However, at [tex]x=-1[/tex], the tangent is determined, that means, there's no asymptote on that coordinate, that's why it has a "determined value", which is -0.02 approximately.

[tex]tan(-1) \approx -0.02[/tex]

Change -2Y - X=-2 to the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line.

Answers

Answer:

y = -(1/2)x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2Y - X = -2

Add x to both sides:

-2Y = X - 2

Divide both sides by -2:

Y = -(1/2)x+1

You could also use the shortcuts:

For Ay+Bx=C, the slope is -B/A and the y-intercept is C/A.

Slope = -B/A = -(-1)/(-2) = 1/-2 = -(1/2)

Y-intercept = C/A = (-2)/(-2) = 1

y = mx + b ---> y = -(1/2)x + 1

Answer:

y = -1/2x +1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

-2y -x = -2

Solve for y

Add x to each side

-2y = x-2

Divide by -2

-2y/2- = x/-2 -2/-2

y = -1/2x +1

Here is a list of ages (years) of children in a room: 4, 3, 2, 10, 10, 6, 7 State the median.

Answers

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets re- write the numbers in growing order.

2,3,4,6,7,10,10

The number that stays exactly in the middle of the the sequence is the median.

Number 6 stays in the middle. So 6 is the median

Answer

6

Step by step explanation

Given data : 4 , 3 , 2 , 10 , 10 , 6 , 7

Arranging the data in ascending order, we have,

2 , 3 , 4 , 6 , 7 , 10 , 10

Here, n ( total number of items) = 7

Now, position of median:

[tex] {( \frac{n + 1}{2}) }^{th} [/tex] item

plug the value

[tex] = {( \frac{7 + 1}{2} )}^{th} [/tex] item

Add the numbers

[tex] =( { \frac{8}{2} )}^{th} [/tex] item

Divide

[tex] = {4}^{th} [/tex] item

i.e 4th item is the median

Median = 6

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Further more explanation:

Let's take another example:

please see the attached picture.

In the above series, the numbers are arranged in ascending order. Here, the fourth item 17 has three items before it and three items after it. So, 17 is the middle item in the series. 17 is called the median of the series.

Thus, Median is the value of the middle - most observation, when the data are arranged in ascending or descending order of magnitude.

Solve for x. Then, find m∠FDG and m∠GOF. A. x = 24; m∠FDG = 56°; m∠GOF = 106° B. x = 29; m∠FDG = 66°; m∠GOF = 126° C. x = 28; m∠FDG = 64°; m∠GOF = 116° D. x = 27; m∠FDG = 62°; m∠GOF = 118°

Answers

Answer:

Option D

x = 27; m∠FDG = 62°; m∠GOF = 118°

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we will need the help of the following laws of geometry:

1. We can see that the shape formed is quadrilateral. The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral = 360 degrees.

2. The angle between a radius and a tangent = 90 degrees. as a result of this, <OGD = <OFD = 90 degrees.

Once we have values for all the angles of the quadrilateral, we can set up an equation using the first rule mentioned above.

2x+8 + 4x+10 +90 +90 = 360 (Sum of interior angles of a quadrilateral = 360)

6x = 162

x=27 degrees

Now we have the value of x, we can find FDG and GOF as follows:

FDG = 2x + 8 = 2(27)+8 =62

FOG = 4x + 10 = 4(27)+ 10 =118

Use the minimum and maximum data entries and the number of classes to find the class width, the lower class limits, and the upper class limits. min = 14, max = 121, 8 classes

Answers

Answer:

The  class width is  [tex]C_w \approx 13[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

 The  upper class limits is [tex]max = 121[/tex]

  The  lower class limits is  [tex]min = 14[/tex]

How many times as tall is the box with the smaller base?

Answers

Answer:

The height of the box with the smaller base is 4  times that of the box with the larger base

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a box is the product of the base area and the height of the box, it is given as:

Volume = base area × height

For the smaller base box, it has a base of 5 cm by 5 cm, therefore the base area of the smaller base box = 5 cm × 5 cm  = 25 cm². Let the height of the smaller base box be [tex]h_1[/tex]The volume of the small box = [tex]25*h_1[/tex]

For the larger base box, it has a base of 10 cm by 10 cm, therefore the base area of the larger base box = 10 cm × 10 cm  = 100 cm². Let the height of the large base box be [tex]h_2[/tex]The volume of the larger base box = [tex]100*h_2[/tex]

Since both boxes have the same volume, therefore:

[tex]100*h_2[/tex] = [tex]25*h_1[/tex]

[tex]\frac{h_1}{h_2} =\frac{100}{25} \\\\\frac{h_1}{h_2}=4\\\\h_1=4h_2[/tex]

The height of the box with the smaller base is 4  times that of the box with the larger base

We can use the formula V=lwh to compare the volume in the two boxes.

First let's compare the volume of both boxes to see if they have the same height. To make it simple, let's use a height of 1 centimeter.

First the box with the smaller base.

V=lwh

V=5⋅5⋅1

V=25

Now the box with the larger base

V=lwh

V=10x10x1

V=100

We can set up an equation to find out how many times as tall the smaller box needs to be to have the same volume as the box with the larger base.

25·h=100

h=4

The boz with the smaller base is 4 times tall

A firm just paid an annual dividend of $1.40 and increases that dividend by 2 percent each year. How do you find the price if the firm's stock at year 4 if the discount rate is 13 percent?

Answers

Answer:

14.05

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following:

Current Dividend = D0 = $ 1.40

g = growth rate = 2%

r = discount rate = 13%

Dividend in Year 5

= D5 = D0 * (1 + g) ^ 5

= $ 1.40 * (1 + 2%) ^ 5

= $ 1.40 * (1.02) ^ 5

Firm Stock Price at the end of year 4 = Dividend in Year 5 / (r - g)

= $ 1.40 * (1.02) ^ 5 / (13% -2%)

= $ 1.40 * (1.02) ^ 5 / (0.13 - 0.02)

Therefore, firm stock at the end of year 4 is

P4 = $ 1.40 * (1.02) ^ 5 / (0.13 - 0.02) = 14.05

Look at the figure. Which step should be taken next to construct a line through point P perpendicular to BA?

Answers

ANSWER:

C. Place the compass on point A. Open the compass to a point between point P and point B.

EXPLANATION:

A perpendicular is a line that would be at a right angle to line BA.

The next step is to chose a radius that is greater than PB or PA so as to construct the bisector. And this can be done by placing the compass on point A, and open the compass to a point between point P and point B.

Use this radius to draw an arc above and below the line, and repeat the same using B as the center with the same radius. This would form two intersecting arcs above and below line BA. Join the point of intersection of the arcs by a straight line through P. This is the bisector of line BA through point P.

Use the position function below for free-falling objects. s(t) = -16t^2 + v_0t + s_0 What is its velocity after 2 seconds? v(2) = -91 ft/s What is its velocity after falling 364 feet? v = 1.61 ft/s Find an equation of the parabola y = ax^2 + bx + c that passes through (0, 1) and is tangent to the line y = 5x - 5 at (1, 0). Y = 5x + 10

Answers

Answer:

a) The velocity of the ball after 2 seconds is -91 feet per second, b) The velocity of the ball after falling 364 feet is 155 feet per second, c) The equation of the parabola that passes through (0,1) and is tangent to the line y = 5x - 5 is [tex]y = 6\cdot x^{2}-7\cdot x +1[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The velocity function is obtained after deriving the position function in time:

[tex]v (t) = -32\cdot t -27[/tex]

The velocity of the ball after 2 seconds is:

[tex]v(2\,s) = -32\cdot (2\,s) -27[/tex]

[tex]v(2\,s) = -91\,\frac{ft}{s}[/tex]

The velocity of the ball after 2 seconds is -91 feet per second.

b) The time of the ball after falling 364 feet is found after solving the position function as follows:

[tex]435\,ft - 364\,ft = -16\cdot t^{2}-27\cdot t + 435\,ft[/tex]

[tex]-16\cdot t^{2} - 27\cdot t + 364 = 0[/tex]

The solution of this second-grade polynomial is represented by two roots:

[tex]t_{1} = 4\,s[/tex] and [tex]t_{2} = -5.688\,s[/tex].

Only the first root is physically reasonable since time is a positive variable. Now, the velocity of the ball after falling 364 feet is:

[tex]v(4\,s) = -32\cdot (4\,s) - 27[/tex]

[tex]v(4\,s) = -155\,\frac{ft}{s}[/tex]

The velocity of the ball after falling 364 feet is 155 feet per second.

c) Let consider the equation for a second order polynomial that passes through (0, 1) and its first derivative that passes through (1, 0) and represents the give equation of the tangent line. That is to say:

Second-order polynomial evaluated at (0, 1)

[tex]c = 1[/tex]

Slope of the tangent line evaluated at (1, 0)

[tex]5 = 2\cdot a \cdot (1) + b[/tex]

[tex]2\cdot a + b = 5[/tex]

[tex]b = 5 - 2\cdot a[/tex]

Now, let evaluate the second order polynomial at (1, 0):

[tex]0 = a\cdot (1)^{2}+b\cdot (1) + c[/tex]

[tex]a + b + c = 0[/tex]

If [tex]c = 1[/tex] and [tex]b = 5 - 2\cdot a[/tex], then:

[tex]a + (5-2\cdot a) +1 = 0[/tex]

[tex]-a +6 = 0[/tex]

[tex]a = 6[/tex]

And the value of b is: ([tex]a = 6[/tex])

[tex]b = 5 - 2\cdot (6)[/tex]

[tex]b = -7[/tex]

The equation of the parabola that passes through (0,1) and is tangent to the line y = 5x - 5 is [tex]y = 6\cdot x^{2}-7\cdot x +1[/tex].

Answer:

2nd choice. f(x) = 4 sin x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the transformations form of a sine function is:

y = ±a sin(b(x-h)) + k

Where:

'a' changes the amplitude

'b' changes the period

'h' is a horizontal shift

'k' is a vertical shift, or a change in the midline.

In this instance, the function has a midline of y = 2, which means an equation representing this must have a 'k' value of 2.

The only equation that contains this value is:

f(x) = 4 sin x + 2.

These are the weekly wages paid to staff in a hotel. £245 £140 £525 £163 £195 £174 £140 What is the range of these wages? £ What is the mean wage?

Answers

Answer:

Range of wages is £140 to £525.

Mean wage = £226

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Weekly wages paid to the staff are :

£245, £140, £525, £163, £195, £174 and £140.

To find:

Range of these wages = ?

Mean wage = ?

Solution:

First of all, let us learn about the range of wages and mean wage.

Range of wages has a minimum pay and a maximum pay.

Here, if we have a look £140 is the minimum pay and

£525 is the maximum pay.

So, range of wages is £140 to £525.

Mean wage means the average of all the wages given to the staff.

Mean is defined as the formula:

[tex]\text{Average/Mean =} \dfrac{\text{Sum of all the observations}}{\text{Number of observations}}[/tex]

Here, Sum of all observations mean sum of the wages of all the staff members.

Number of observations mean the number of staff members i.e. 7 here.

Applying the formula:

[tex]\text{Average/Mean =} \dfrac{\text{245+140+525+163+195+174+140}}{\text{7}} \\\Rightarrow \text{Average/Mean =} \dfrac{\text{1582}}{\text{7}}\\\Rightarrow \text{Average/Mean =} 226[/tex]

So, the answer is:

Range of wages is £140 to £525.

Mean wage = £226

Answers

Set up two equations:

Let a = adults and c = child:

1.50c + 4a = 746

Replace a with the rewritten formula:

1.50c + 4(289-c) = 746

SImplify:

1.50c + 1156 - 4c = 746

Combine like terms:

-2.50c + 1156 = 746

Subtract 1156 from both sides:

-2.50c = -410

Divide both sides by -2.50

c = -410 / -2.50 = 164

Number of children = 164

Number of adults = 289 - 164 = 125

Answer:

[tex] x+y = 289[/tex] (1) total people entered

[tex] 1.50 x +4 y = 746[/tex] (2) total amount collected

From the first equation we can solve for x and we got:

[tex] x = 289-y[/tex] (3)

Replacing (3) into (2) we got:

[tex] 1.5(289-y) +4y = 746[/tex]

And solving for y we got:

[tex] 433.5 -1.5 y +4y = 746[/tex]

[tex] 2.5 y= 312.5[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{312.5}{2.5}= 125[/tex]

And then using (3) we can solve for x and we got:

[tex] x= 289-125= 164[/tex]

So then we have:

number of children = 164

number of adults = 125

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x the number of children and y the number of adults. From the info given we can set up the following equations:

[tex] x+y = 289[/tex] (1) total people entered

[tex] 1.50 x +4 y = 746[/tex] (2) total amount collected

From the first equation we can solve for x and we got:

[tex] x = 289-y[/tex] (3)

Replacing (3) into (2) we got:

[tex] 1.5(289-y) +4y = 746[/tex]

And solving for y we got:

[tex] 433.5 -1.5 y +4y = 746[/tex]

[tex] 2.5 y= 312.5[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{312.5}{2.5}= 125[/tex]

And then using (3) we can solve for x and we got:

[tex] x= 289-125= 164[/tex]

So then we have:

number of children = 164

number of adults = 125

use the substitution method to solve the system of equations. Choose the correct ordered pair y=3x 2x+3y=55

Answers

Answer:

(x,y) = (5,15)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x

2x + 3y = 55

2x + 3(3x) = 55

2x + 9x = 55

11x = 55

x = 5

y = 3(5)

y = 15

A local bottler, Fossil Cove, wants to ensure that an average of 16 ounces of beer is used to fill each bottle. Ben takes a random sample of 48 bottles and finds the average weight to be 15.8 ounces. Historically, the standard deviation has been 0.8 ounces.

Required:
a. Complete a hypothesis test (using the p-‐‐value approach). Interpret your results.
b. How would your answer change if instead of being given that the sample standard deviation was 0.8 ounces you were given the sample variance is 0.64?

Answers

Answer:

(a) The mean weight of beer used to fill each bottle is 16 ounces.

(b) The answer of part (a) would not change.

Step-by-step explanation:

A local bottler, Fossil Cove, wants to ensure that an average of 16 ounces of beer is used to fill each bottle.

Ben takes a random sample of n = 48 bottles and finds the average weight to be [tex]\bar x=[/tex] 15.8 ounces. Also it is known that the standard deviation is, σ = 0.8 ounces.

(a)

The hypothesis can be defined as follows:

H₀: The mean weight of beer used to fill each bottle is 16 ounces, i.e. μ = 16.

Hₐ: The mean weight of beer used to fill each bottle is not 16 ounces, i.e. μ ≠ 16.

Assume that the significance level of the test is, α = 0.05.

As the population standard deviation is provided, we will use a z-test for single mean.

Compute the test statistic value as follows:

 [tex]z=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

   [tex]=\frac{15.8-16}{0.80/\sqrt{48}}\\\\=-1.732[/tex]

The test statistic value is -1.732.

Decision rule:

If the p-value of the test is less than the significance level then the null hypothesis will be rejected.

Compute the p-value for the two-tailed test as follows:

[tex]p-value=2\cdot P(Z>-1.732)[/tex]

               [tex]=2\times [1-P(Z<1.732)]\\\\=2\times [1-0.04182]\\\\=0.08364\\\\\approx 0.084[/tex]  

*Use a z-table for the probability.

The p-value of the test is 0.084.

p-value = 0.084 > α = 0.05

The null hypothesis will not be rejected.

Thus, it can be concluded that the mean weight of beer used to fill each bottle is 16 ounces.

(b)

The standard deviation of a random variable is the square root of the variance.

[tex]SD=\sqrt{Variance}[/tex]

So, if the variance was 0.64, then the standard deviation will be:

[tex]SD=\sqrt{Variance}=\sqrt{0.64}=0.80[/tex]

Thus, the answer of part (a) would not change.

A rectangle is to be inscribed in a right triangle having sides of length 6 in, 8 in, and 10 in. Find the dimensions of the rectangle with greatest area assuming the rectangle is positioned as in Figure 1. Figure1

Answers

Answer:  width = 2.4 in, length = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The max area of a right triangle is half the area of the original triangle.

Area of the triangle = (6 x 8)/2  = 24

--> area of rectangle = 24 ÷ 2 = 12

Next, let's find the dimensions.

The length is adjacent to the hypotenuse. Since we know the area is half, we should also know that the length will be half of the hypotenuse.

length = 10 ÷ 2 = 5

Use the area formula to find the width:

A = length x width

12 = 5 w

12/5 = w

2.4 = w

The dimensions of the rectangle with greatest area is length is 3 inch and the width is 4 inch.

Let the length and width of the rectangle be x and y.

Then Area of the rectangle = xy

Now, from the triangle we can conclude that

[tex]\frac{6-x}{y} =\frac{6}{8} \\y=8(\frac{6-x}{6} ).[/tex]

Put the value of y in Area we get

[tex]A(x)=x\frac{8}{6} (6-x)\\A(x)=\frac{8}{6}(6x-x^{2} )\\[/tex]

Differentiating it w.r.t x we get

[tex]A'(x)=\frac{8}{6}(6-2x )\\A''(x)=\frac{8}{6}(0-2 )\\A''(x)=\frac{-8}{3}[/tex]

Put A'(x)=0 for maximum /minimum value

[tex]A'(x)=0\\\frac{8}{6}(6-2x)=0\\x=3[/tex]

Now, [tex]A''(3)=-\frac{8}{3} &lt;0[/tex]

Therefore the area of the rectangle is maximum for x=3 inch

Now,

[tex]y=\frac{8}{6} (6-3)\\y=4[/tex]

Thus the dimensions of the rectangle with greatest area is 3 inch by 4 inch.
