Answer:

one solution

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of equations has one solution.

Hence option A is correct.

The given system is

4x-2y=8

2x+y=2

Since we know that,

For system

a₁x + b₁ y = c₁

a₂x + b₂y = c₂

If

a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ = c₁/c₂   then it has an infinite solution

a₁/a₂ ≠ b₁/b₂              then unique solution

a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ ≠ c₁/c₂   then no solution

Here we have

a₁ =  4, b₁ = -2 and c₁ = 8

a₂ = 2, b₂ = 1  and  c₂ = 2

Now since

a₁/a₂ ≠ b₁/b₂   ⇒ 4/2  ≠ -2/1

                      ⇒ 2 ≠ -2

Hence, the given system has a unique solution.

Answer:

3.87

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Data provided in the question

mean distance = [tex]\bar x[/tex] = 188 meters

Standard deviaton = [tex]\sigma = 14[/tex]

Hits drivers = 15

The distance = 174 meters

H_0: μ≤174;

H_a: μ>174

Based  on the above information, the test statistic z-score is

[tex]z = \frac{\bar x - \mu }{\sigma / \sqrt{n} } \\\\ = \frac{188 - 174}{\ 14 / \sqrt{15} }[/tex]

= 3.87

Hence, the test statistic is 3.87

Note:

We take the μ≤174 instead of μ=174;

Answer:

$125,800

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount (A) = ?

Principal (P) = $85,000

Rate (r) = 6%

Time (t) = 8 years

Simple interest formula;

A = P(1 + rt)

A = $85,000(1 + 0.48)

A = $125,800

Answer:

61 and -87

Step-by-step explanation:

If the numbers are x and x - 148, we can write the following equation:

x + x - 148 = -26

2x - 148 = -26

2x = 122

x = 61 so x - 148 = 61 - 148 = -87

Answer:

Thickness of rectangle prism is 20 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Surface area of rectangular prism, A =  992 sq inches.

Height, h = 12 inches

Width, w = 8 inches

To find:

Thickness / length of prism, [tex]l[/tex] = ?

Solution:

First of all, let us learn the formula for surface area of a rectangular prism.

Formula for surface area of a prism is given as:

[tex]A=2(wl+hl+hw)[/tex]

As there are 6 faces, each face is a rectangle and area of all the faces is considered in the formula. It is just like a cuboid like structure.

Putting all the given values in the formula to find the value of [tex]l[/tex]:

[tex]992=2(8l+12l+8 \times 12)\\\Rightarrow 496 = 20l + 96\\\Rightarrow 20 l =496-96\\\Rightarrow 20 l =400\\\Rightarrow l = \dfrac{400}{20}\\\Rightarrow l = 20\ inches[/tex]

So, the answer is Thickness of rectangle prism is 20 inches.

Answer:

The confidence interval is  [tex]25.16 < \mu < 26.85[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From  the question we are given a data set

     25.5, 26.1, 26.8, 23.2, 24.2, 28.4, 25.0, 27.8, 27.3, and 25.7.

The mean of the this sample data is  

       [tex]\= x = \frac{\sum x_i}{n}[/tex]

where is the sample size with values  n =  10

         [tex]\= x = \frac{25.5+ 26.1+ 26.8+23.2+ 24.2+ 28.4+ 25.0+ 27.8+ 27.3+ 25.7}{10}[/tex]

          [tex]\= x = 26[/tex]

The standard deviation is evaluated as

             [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum (x-\= x)}{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

     [tex]= \sqrt{\frac{ ( 25.5-26)^2, (26.1-26)^2, (26.8-26)^2, (23.2-26)^2}{10} }[/tex]

                  [tex]\cdot \ \cdot \ \cdot \sqrt{\frac{ ( 24.2-26)^2, (28.4-26)^2+( 25.0-26)^2+ (27.8-26)^2+( 27.3-26)^2+( 25.7-26)^2}{10} }[/tex]

     [tex]\sigma = 1.625[/tex]

The  confidence level is given as 90% hence the level of significance is calculated as

    [tex]\alpha = 100 -90[/tex]

    [tex]\alpha =10[/tex]%

   [tex]\alpha = 0.10[/tex]

Now the critical values of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is obtained from the normal distribution table as

      [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.645[/tex]

The reason  we are obtaining  the critical values of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] instead of  [tex]\alpha[/tex] is because  we are considering two tails of the area under the normal curve

  The margin of error is evaluated as

            [tex]MOE = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

           [tex]MOE = 1.645 * \frac{1.625 }{\sqrt{10} }[/tex]

           [tex]MOE = 0.845[/tex]

The  90%, two sided confidence interval is mathematically evaluated as

           [tex]\= x - MOE < \mu < \= x + MOE[/tex]

           [tex]26 - 0.845 < \mu < 26 + 0.845[/tex]

           [tex]25.16 < \mu < 26.85[/tex]

Answer:

a. k = 3

b. N = 27

c. n = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Source :          sS                 dF            mS                F

Between:                            k -1        sSB/k-1             mSB

within                                  N-K        sSw/N-K           mSw

total                                     N-1

Therefore F ( 2, 24 ) = F ( K - 1, N - K )

so K - 1 = 2

K = 2 + 1

K = 3

N - K = 24

N - 3 = 24

N = 24 + 3

N = 27

married, single and divorced are equal sizes

so n = N/3

n = 27 / 3

n = 9

a. k = 3

b. N = 27

c. n = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey, there !!!

According to your question,

total c.p = 532.50

tax rate =6%

let original price be x.

now,

total c.p = x + tax rate of x.

or, 532.50= x+ (6/100) × x

or, 532.50 = 106x/100

or, 53200 = 106x

or, x= 53200/106

Therefore, the original price was 501.88.

Answer:

(a) n(t) = P(0)*e^(0.010939940t)

(b) 12,674,681 (nearest unit)

(c) 14 years (nearest year)

Step-by-step explanation:

rate = 1.1% / year = 1.011

(a)

P(0) = 12,000,000  = population in 2010

In compound interest format, after t years

P(t) = P(0)* (1.011)^t

Given format = P(0)* e^(rt)

therefore

e^(rt) = 1.011^t       use law of exponents

(e^r)^t = 1.011^t

e^r = 1.011

r = log_e(1.011) = 0.010939940   (to 9 decimal places)

required formula is

n(t) = P(0)*e^(0.010939940t)

(b)

in 2015,

P(0)=12000000, n = 5 (years after 2010)

n(5) = 12000000*e^( 0.010939940 * 5 ) = 12,674,680.6 = 12,674,681 (nearest unit)

(c)

to reach 14 million, we equate

n(t) = 14,000,000

12,000,000 *e^(0.010939940*t) = 14,000,000

e^(0.010939940*t) = 14000000/12000000 = 7/6

take log on both sides

0.010939940*t = log(7/6)

t = log(7/6) / 0.010939940 = 14.091 years = 14 years to the nearest year.

a) [tex]n(t) = 12e^{0.011t}[/tex]

b) The estimate for the population in 2015 is of 12.7 million.

c) The fish population will reach 14 million after 14 years.

d) The sketch is given at the end of this answer.

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

Item a:

The exponential model is:

[tex]n(t) = n(0)e^{rt}[/tex]

In which:

Thus, the model is:

[tex]n(t) = 12e^{0.011t}[/tex]

Item b:

2015 is 2015 - 2010 = 5 years after 2010, thus this is n(5).

[tex]n(5) = 12e^{0.011(5)} = 12.7[/tex]

The estimate for the population in 2015 is of 12.7 million.

Item c:

This is t for which n(t) = 14, thus:

[tex]n(t) = 12e^{0.011t}[/tex]

[tex]14 = 12e^{0.011t}[/tex]

[tex]e^{0.011t} = \frac{14}{12}[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{0.011t}} = \ln{\frac{14}{12}}[/tex]

[tex]0.011t = \ln{\frac{14}{12}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{\ln{\frac{14}{12}}}{0.011}[/tex]

[tex]t = 14[/tex]

The fish population will reach 14 million after 14 years.

Graph is attached below

Step-by-step explanation:

You first need to plot any two points on the coordinate plane(you can also do more than two points to make it more accurate). Then, using a ruler connect the points and extend the line outwards.

The plotted straight line is as shown in below graph.

Given straight line equation is y = x + 2

To plot a straight line, take two different values of x which output different values of y. Then plot those points in the graph.

After plotting those two points, you connect both dots with straight line and extend that line infinitely from both endpoints.

Example, take x = 1 and x = 2 for straight line y = x + 2

Then we get:

For x = 1, y = 1 + 2 = 3

For x = 2, y = 2 + 2 = 4

The plot of points (1,3) and (2,4) and the straight line y = x + 2 is shown below.

Answer:

z-value of rachel = 1.875

z-value of rob = -2

z-value of Rachel is more than that of rob. Thus rob is earning below average and rachel is earning above average.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's denote the salary of Rob and Rachel per year by X. So, X = $50,000

We are told that;

For Rachel's industry;

Mean salary;μ1 = $35,000

Standard deviation;σ1 = $8,000

For Rob's industry;

Mean salary;μ2 = $60,000

Standard deviation;σ2 = $5,000

Formula for z - value is;

z = (X - μ)/σ

Thus;

z-value for rob is;

z2 = (X - μ2)/σ2

z2 = (50000 - 60000)/5000

z2 = -2

z-value for rachel is;

z1 = (X - μ1)/σ1

z1 = (50000 - 35000)/8000

z1 = 1.875

z-value of Rachel is more than that of rob. Thus rob is earning below average and rachel is earning above average.

Answer: It is a scalene triangle.

(c) b= 22.147cm

A = 48.16 degrees

C = 22.82 degrees

Note angle sum higher than 180 due to rounding inaccuracies

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) <C == 180 - (40 + 60) == 80 (Interior angles on triangle have sum of 180 degrees)

side a = (8*sin(40))/sin(60) == 5.938cm by law of sines

side c = (8*sin(80))/sin(

60) == 9.097cm by law of sines

(b) unsure

(c) b^2 = 17^2 + 11^2 - 2(17)(11)cos(104) --> Law of cosines

b^2 = 289 + 121 - 2(187)cos(104)

b^2 = 400 - -90.479

b^2 = 490.479

b = 22.147 cm

sin(A)/17cm = sin(104)/22.147cm

A = arcsin((17/22.147)*sin(104))

A = 48.16 degrees

[tex]w=\frac{t+8}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]3w - 8 = t[/tex]

Add 8 on both sides.

[tex]3w - 8 + 8 = t + 8[/tex]

[tex]3w = t + 8[/tex]

Divide both sides by 3.

[tex]\frac{3w}{3} =\frac{t+8}{3}[/tex]

[tex]w=\frac{t+8}{3}[/tex]

The value of w is w = (t + 8)/3 in terms of t after solving and making the subject w the answer is w = (t + 8)/3.

It is defined as the combination of constants and variables with mathematical operators.

We have an equation:

3w - 8 = t

To solve for w in terms of t

Make the subject as w

In the equation:

3w - 8 = t

Add 8 on both sides:

3w - 8 + 8 = t + 8

3w = t + 8

Divide by 3 on both sides:

3w/3 = (t + 8)/3

w = (t + 8)/3

The equation represents a function of w in terms of t

As we know, the function can be defined as a special type of relationship, and they have a predefined domain and range according to the function every value in the domain is related to exactly one value in the range.

Thus, the value of w is w = (t + 8)/3 in terms of t after solving and making the subject w the answer is w = (t + 8)/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using chain rule to find the partial deriviative of z with respect to s and t i.e ∂z/∂s and ∂z/∂t, we will use the following formula since it is composite in nature;

∂z/∂s = ∂z/∂x*∂x/∂s +  ∂z/∂y*∂y/∂s

Given the following relationships z = x⁸y⁹, x = s cos(t), y = s sin(t)

∂z/∂x = 8x⁷y⁹, ∂x/∂s = cos(t), ∂z/∂y = 9x⁸y⁸ and ∂y/∂s = sin(t)

On substitution;

∂z/∂s = 8x⁷y⁹(cos(t)) + 9x⁸y⁸ sin(t)

∂z/∂s = 8(scost)⁷(s sint)⁹(cos(t)) + 9(s cost)⁸(s sint)⁸ sin(t)

∂z/∂s = (8s⁷cos⁸t)s⁹sin⁹t + (9s⁸cos⁸t)s⁸sin⁹t

∂z/∂s = 8s¹⁶cos⁸tsin⁹t + 9s¹⁶cos⁸tsin⁹t

∂z/∂s = 17s¹⁶cos⁸tsin⁹t

∂z/∂t =  ∂z/∂x*∂x/∂t +  ∂z/∂y*∂y/∂t

∂x/∂t = -s sin(t) and ∂y/∂t = s cos(t)

∂z/∂t  = 8x⁷y⁹*(-s sint) + 9x⁸y⁸* (s cos(t))

∂z/∂t = 8(scost)⁷(s sint)⁹(-s sint) + 9(s cost)⁸(s sint)⁸(s cos(t))

3x

Answer:

3x

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the expression:

39*x /13

We want to simplify this expression. It can be simplified because both the numerator (top number) and denominator (bottom number) can be evenly divided by 13.

(39*x /13) / (13/13)

(39x/13) / 1

3x / 1

When the denominator is 1, we can simply eliminate the denominator and leave the numerator as our answer.

3x

The expression 39*x/13 can be simplified to 3x
