The percent of a​ country's households with broadband Internet access can be modeled by the function f left parenthesis x right parenthesisequalsnegative 0.11 x squared plus 6.51 x plus 3​, where f left parenthesis x right parenthesis is the projected percent of households with broadband Internet access and x is the number of years since 2000.

a. Will this function have a maximum or a​ minimum? How can you​ tell?

b. According to this​ model, in what year will the percent of homes with broadband Internet access be at its maximum or​ minimum?

c. What is the predicted​ maximum/minimum percent of homes with broadband Internet​ access?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) The function has a maximum at  x = 29,59

b) 99,32 %

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -0,11*x² + 6,51*x + 3

Then:

f´(x) = -0,22*x + 6,51

If   f´(x) = 0   then    - 0,22*x + 6,51 = 0

0,22*x = 6,51

x = 6,51/0,22    ⇒     x = 29,59

if we get the second derivative

f´´(x) = - 0,22       f´´(x) < 0   then we have a maximun at x = 29,59

a) the function has a maximum

b) 29,59 years after 2000   ( in 2030 )

c) f(x) = - 0,11*x² + 6,51*x + 3

f(29,59) = - (0,11)* (29,59)² + 6,51*29,59 + 3

f(29,59) = 99,32 %

what is the frequency distribution table

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

The frequency distribution table is a table that shows the particular values and corresponding frequencies. It consists of two tables first for clas interval and other for frequency.There are many types of frequency distribution such as Grouped frequency distribution, Cumulative frequency distribution., Relative cumulative frequency distribution etc.

One way of organizing data is by constructing a frequency distribution table. A tally mark is used to record how often a particular score or number occurs. The number of times a score or number appears is called the frequency.

To construct a frequency distribution table:

a. list the scores or numbers from highest to lowest (or lowest to highest),

b. use tally marks to record how often each score or number appears, and

c. count the marks and record it in the frequency column.

Step-by-step explanation:

At what meter mark will Ario be when Miguel starts the race? Round to the nearest tenth. x = (StartFraction m Over m + n EndFraction) (x 2 minus x 1) + x 1 A number line goes from 0 to 25. A line is drawn from 3 to 25. The point at 3 is labeled Start and the point at 25 is labeled End. Miguel and his brother Ario are both standing 3 meters from one side of a 25-meter pool when they decide to race. Miguel offers Ario a head start. Miguel says he will start when the ratio of Ario’s completed meters to Ario’s remaining meters is 1:4.

Answers

Answer: 7.4 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Start Mark = 3m

End mark = 25m

Total length to race = 25 - 3 = 22m

Position of both Ario and miguel = 3 meter from one side of the pool; that is 3 meters behind the START MARK

Ario's completed to remain ratio = 1:4

Total ratio = 5

Ario's Completed meters = (22/5) * 1 = 4.4m

Therefore, when Miguel starts the race, Ario will be on (4.4meters + number of meters behind the start mark)

= 4.4 meters + 3 meters = 7.4meters

The distance of Ario from the start point when miguel starts is;

7.44 m

We are told that A line is drawn from 3 to 25.

        This means distance of line = 25 - 3 = 22 m

The start point is at the 3 m mark.

Miguel and his brother Ario are standing 3 m from one side of the pool.

This means that they are both 3 meters behind the start point.

We are told that the ratio of Ario’s completed meters to Ario’s remaining meters is 1:4.

Thus, ario's completed meters when Miguel will start is;

¹/₅ × 22 = 4.4 m

Since Miguel is 3 m from the start and Ario has just done 4.4 m, then it means that;

Distance of miguel from Ario when miguel starts = 3 + 4.4 = 7.4 m

Answers

Answer:

a.  Feelings about weight is the response (dependent) variable.  Sex is the explanatory (independent) variable.  The feelings about weight depend on the sex

b. Summary of  observed counts

                         Women   Men   Total

Overweight        38           18       56

Right weight      99          35      134

Apply law of exponents, when bases are same for exponents in multiplication, add the exponents. When a base with an exponent has a whole exponent, then multiply the two exponents.

[tex]\sf{4^{\frac{3}{4} }} \times \sf{4^{\frac{1}{2} x}=4^{\frac{4}{5} }[/tex]

Subtract 3/4 from both sides.

[tex]\sf \frac{1}{2} x=\frac{1}{20}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2.

[tex]\sf x=\frac{1}{10}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

2^{2*3/4} × 2^{x}=2^{4×2/5}

2^{3/2} × 2^{x}= 2^{8/5}

2^{3/2+x}=2^{8/5}

Right triangle ABC is located in A(-1,-2), B(-1,1) and C(3,1) on a coordinate plane. what is the equation of a circle with radius AC?
A) (x+1)*2+(y+2)*2=9
B) (x+1)*2+(y+2)*2=25
C) (x-3)*2+(y-1)*2= 16
D) (x-3)*2+(y-1)*2=25

Answers

Answer:

Hey there!

First, we want to find the radius of the circle, which equals the length of line segment AC.

Length of line segment AC, which we can find with the distance formula: [tex]\sqrt{25\\[/tex], which is equal to 5.

The equation for a circle, is: [tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex], where (h, k) is the center of the circle, and r is the radius.

Although I don't know the center of the circle, I can tell you that it is either choice B or D, because the radius, 5, squared, is 25.

Hope this helps :) (And let me know if you edit the question)

Answer:  The equation of the circle is (x+1)²+(y+1)² = 25

Step-by-step explanation:  Use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the length of the radius from the coordinates given for the triangle location:  A(-1,-2), B(-1,1) and C(3,1)  The sides of the triangle are AB=3, BC=4, AC=5.

Use the equation for a circle: ( x - h )² + ( y - k )² = r², where ( h, k ) is the center and r is the radius.

As the directions specify, the radius is AC, so it makes sense to use the coordinates of A (-1,-2) as the center.  h is -1, k is -2  The radius 5, squared becomes 25.

Substituting those values, we have (x -[-1])² + (y -[-2])² = 25 .

When substituted for h, the -(-1) becomes +1 and the -(-2) for k becomes +2.

We end up with the equation for the circle as specified:

(x+1)²+(y+1)² = 25

A graph of the circle is attached. I still need to learn how to define line segments; the radius is only the segment of the line between the center (-1,-2) and (1,3)

BRAINLIEST! ASAP! A boat travelling at top speed upstream moves at 15km/hr. When it travels downstream, again at top speed< it moves at 25km/hr. What is the boat's top speed in still water?

Answers

Answer:

  20 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

The boat's still-water speed is the average of its speeds against and with the current:

  (15 +25)/2 = 20 . . . km/hr

__

If you want to write equations, you can let b and c represent the speeds of the boat and current in km/hr.

  b - c = 15 . . . . upstream speed

  b + c = 25 . . . . downstream speed

Add these two equations, and you get ...

  (b -c) +(b +c) = (15) +(25)

  2b = 40

  b = 20 . . . . divide by 2

The speed of the boat in still water is 20 km/hr.

Answer:

20 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you have to find the average speed it is going. To find this, you just add up all of the speeds mentioned and divide it by the number of speeds you added.

15 +25=40

40/2=20

20km/hr!!!

Trignometry Question Please help

Answers

Answer:

  19.45°

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the post is 1 unit high. Then the distance from the post to another corner of the rectangle will satisfy the relation ...

  distance/1 = tan(90° -angle of elevation)

So, for the near corner, the distance from the post is ...

  distance = tan(90° -36°) = tan(54°) = 1.37638 . . . post lengths

For the other given corner, the distance from the post is ...

  distance = tan(90° -22°) = tan(68°) = 2.47509 . . . post lengths

The Pythagorean theorem can be used to find the distance from the post to the diagonally opposite corner:

  distance^2 = 1.37638^2 +2.47509^2 = 8.02048

  distance = √8.02048 ≈ 2.83205

The relation of this to the angle of elevation is ...

  tan(angle of elevation) = 1/2.83205

  angle of elevation = arctan(1/2.83205) ≈ 19.45°

_____

In the attached diagram, we have used segments BP and CP as surrogates for the post, so we could determine distances PD and PE that are the sides of the rectangular courtyard. Then the courtyard diagonal is PF. Using PA as a surrogate for the post, we found the angle of elevation from F to A (the top of the post) to be 19.45°, as computed above.

The difference of two numbers is 12 and their sum is 20 find the numbers

Answers

Answer:

they are 16 and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can call the numbers x and y and we can write:

x - y = 12

x + y = 20

Adding these equations gives us 2x = 32 which means x = 16 and substituting this value into the first equation gives us y = 4.

Answer:

The numbers are 16 and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x and y

x-y = 12

x+y = 20

Add the two equations together

x-y = 12

x+y = 20

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

2x = 32

Divide by 2

2x/2 =32/2

x = 16

Now find y

x+y =20

16+y =20

Subtract 16

y = 20-16

y = 4

The number 35 has the property that when its digits are both increased by 2, and
then multiplied, the result is 5 x 7 = 35, equal to the original number.
Find the sum of all two-digit numbers such that when you increase both digits by 2,
and then multiply these numbers, the product is equal to the original number.

Answers

Answer: The sum is 127

Step-by-step explanation:

A 2-digit number N = ab can be written as (where a and b are single-digit numbers)

a*10 + b.

Now, we want that:

(a + 2)*(b + 2) = a*10 + b.

So we must find all the solutions to that equation such that a can not be zero (if a = 0, then the number is not a 2-digit number)

We have:

(a + 2)*(b + 2) = a*b + 2*a + 2*b + 4 = a*10 + b

a*b + 2*b - b + 4 = a*10 - a*2

a*b + 4 + b = a*8

a*b + 4 + b - a*8 = 0.

Now we can give one of the variables different values, and see if the equation has solutions:

>a = 1:

1*b + 4 + b - 8 = 0

2*b - 4 = 0

b = 4/2 = 2

Then the number 12 has the property.

> if a = 2:

2*b + 4 + b -16 = 0

3b -12 = 0

b = 12/3 = 4

The number 24 has the property.

>a = 3 is already known, here the solution is 35.

>a = 4.

4*b + 4 + b - 8*4 = 0

5*b + 4 - 32 = 0

5*b = 28

b = 28/5

this is not an integer, so here we do not have a solution.

>if a = 5.

5*b + 4 + b - 8*5 = 0

6b + 4 - 40 = 0

6b - 36 = 0

b = 36/6 = 6

So the number 56 also has the property.

>if a = 6

6*b + 4 + b - 8*6 = 0

7b + 4 - 48 = 0

7b - 44 = 0

b = 44/7 this is not an integer, so here we do not have any solution.

>if a = 7

7*b + 4 + b -8*7 = 0

8b -52 = 0

b = 52/8 = 6.5 this is not an integer, so we here do not have a solution.

>if a = 8

8*b + 4 + b -8*8 = 0

9*b + 4 - 64 = 0

9*b = 60

b = 60/9 this is not an integer, so we here do not have any solution:

>if a = 9

9*b + 4 + b - 8*9 = 0

10b + 4 - 72 = 0

10b -68 = 0

b = 68/10 again, this is not an integer.

So the numbers with the property are:

12, 24, 35 and 56

And the sum is:

12 + 24 + 35 + 56 =  127

Length AB = 17

Length DC = 8

height (h) = x

Area of trapezium = 75sq units

The Area (A) of a trapezium is given by:

(1/2) × (a + b) × h

Where ;

a and b are the upper and base lengths of the trapezium

h = height of trapezium

A = (1/2) × (a + b) × h

75 = (1/2) * (17 + 8) * x

75 = 0.5*25*x

75 = 12.5x

x = 75 / 12.5

x = 6 units

Graph 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of f(x) = x^3 includes point (0, 0) since f(0) = 0^3 = 0.

The exponent of x is 3. This is not a linear function.

Negative values of x cubed are negative, and positive values of x cubed are positive.

For x < 0, f(x) < 0, and for x > 0, f(x) > 0.

Answer: Graph 4.

What is the 52nd term of the sequence below?
-38, -35, -32, -29...

Answers

Answer:

115

Step-by-step explanation:

It adds 3 every time and starts with -38. Our equation is:

a52 = -38+3(52-1);

a52 = -38 + 153

a52 = 115

Answer:

115

Step-by-step explanation:

→ First we need to work out the nth term. First we find the difference between each term

-38, -35, -32, -29... ⇔ +3

→ We know the first bit is 3n now we have to find the other section. We need to write the 3 times tables on top of each corresponding term

3 ,   6   ,  9  , 12

-38, -35, -32, -29...

→ We can see the to get from 3 to -38 we minus 41. So the nth term is

3n - 41

→ Now we substitute in 52 for n

3 × 52 - 41

→ Simplify

115

It teaches children valuable lessons. Abiding by the decision to take care of a pet teaches young children accountability. When they agree to share the responsibilities, they become liable for their pet's livelihood. The 20112012 National Pet Owners Survey reported that "as many as 58 percent of pet owners claimed that caring for their pets taught their children responsibility." There are many age-appropriate tasks that young children can help parents with such as feeding or putting a pet's toys away. Laura Kang, a parent, states, "Sometimes even my most responsible daughter makes mistakes, but I turn these moments into educational ones by coming up with a plan together for how to do better next time." These caregiving tasks also teach children the importance of taking ownership for their actions. Tina Smith, a well-known family counselor, suggests that "showing how children's actions help pets should be celebrated when done right." Another parent, John Wiggin, agrees: "Consequences for not following through with duties should not be a punishment but instead be a teaching moment to help children understand the importance of their responsibility." Their tasks play a huge part in keeping their pet healthy and happy. Some argue that owning a dog is too much work for a child, but the hard work involved is worth the time and effort in the long run. It builds self-confidence and self-esteem that last into their adulthood. 2 Select the correct answer.
