Answer:
16.97 Units
Step-by-step explanation:
From the graph
Point W is located at (-6,4)
Point X is located at (6,-8)
To determine the distance between points W and X, we use the distance formula.
[tex]\text{Distance Formula}=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]
[tex](x_1,y_1)=(-6,4)\\(x_2,y_2)=(6,-8)[/tex]
So,
[tex]WX=\sqrt{(6-(-6))^2+(-8-4)^2} \\=\sqrt{(6+6)^2+(-12)^2}\\=\sqrt{(12)^2+(-12)^2}\\=\sqrt{288}\\=16.97$ units (correct to the nearest hundredth)[/tex]

Answer:
Question (2). Option (D)
Question (3). (a). 56
(b). 84
Step-by-step explanation:
Question (2).
Since, a% of b = [tex]\frac{a}{100}\times b[/tex]
42% of 350 = [tex]\frac{42}{100}\times 350[/tex]
Therefore, Option (d) is the correct option.
Question (3).
Total number of people who attended the music concert = 700
a). Percentage of people who arrived late in the concert = 8%
Therefore, number of people who attended the concert = 8% of 700
= [tex]\frac{8}{100}\times 700[/tex]
= 56
b). Percentage of people who bought the shirt = 12%
Number of people who bought the shirt = 12% of 700
= [tex]\frac{12}{100}\times 700[/tex]
= 84
Explain how to use the vertex and the value of “A” to determine the range of an absolute value function. PLEASE HELP!!
Answer:
First, a absolute value function is something like:
y = f(x) = IxI
remember how this work:
if x ≥ 0, IxI = x
if x ≤ 0, IxI = -x
Notice that I0I = 0.
And the range of this function is all the possible values of y.
For example for the parent function IxI, the range will be all the positive reals and the zero.
First, if A is the value of the vertex of the absolute function, then we know that A is the maximum or the minimum value of the function.
Now, if the arms of the graph open up, then we know that A is the minimum of the function, and the range will be:
y ≥ A
Or all the real values equal to or larger than A.
if the arms of the graph open downwards, then A is the maximum of the function, and we have that the range is:
y ≤ A
Or "All the real values equal to or smaller than A"
Solve by using logarithms, not the same base. I have absolutely no clue how to solve so any help would be amazing, thanks
Answer:
-5/48
Step-by-step explanation:
(8 · 2⁷ˣ)⁴ = (1/16)⁵ˣ · 128
Take log of both sides.
log (8 · 2⁷ˣ)⁴ = log ((1/16)⁵ˣ · 128)
Use log exponent/product rules.
4 log (8 · 2⁷ˣ) = log (1/16)⁵ˣ + log 128
Use log exponent/product rules.
4 (log 8 + log (2⁷ˣ)) = 5x log (1/16) + log 128
Use log exponent rule.
4 (log 8 + 7x log 2) = 5x log (1/16) + log 128
Distribute.
4 log 8 + 28x log 2 = 5x log (1/16) + log 128
Write as powers of 2.
4 log 2³ + 28x log 2 = 5x log (2⁻⁴) + log 2⁷
Use log exponent rule.
12 log 2 + 28x log 2 = -20x log 2 + 7 log 2
Combine like terms.
5 log 2 + 48x log 2 = 0
Divide by log 2.
5 + 48x = 0
Solve for x.
x = -5/48

Answer:
1). f(x) = x² if ∞ < x < 2
2). f(x) = 5 if 2 ≤ x < 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph attached shows the function in two pieces.
1). Parabola
2). A straight line parallel to the x-axis.
Standard equation of a parabola is,
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k) is the vertex.
Vertex of the given parabola is (0, 0).
Equation of the parabola will be,
y = a(x - 0)² + 0
Therefore, the function will be,
f(x) = ax²
Given parabola is passing through (-1, 1) also,
1 = a(-1)²
a = 1
Therefore, parabolic function will be represented by,
f(x) = x² if ∞ < x < 2
2). Straight line parallel to the x-axis,
y = 5 if 2 ≤ x < 4
Function representing the straight line will be,
f(x) = 5 if 2 ≤ x < 4

Step-by-step explanation:
Well we need to simplify the following expression,
[tex]\frac{3}{4} (\frac{1}{2}x - 12) + \frac{4}{5}[/tex]
So we need to distribute 3/4 to (1/2x - 12)

Solve for x: 4 over x plus 4 over quantity x squared minus 9 equals 3 over quantity x minus 3. (2 points) Select one: a. x = -4 and x = -9 b. x = 4 and x = -9 c. x = -4 and x = 9 d. x = 4 and x = 9
Answer:
c. x = -4 or x = 9Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\dfrac{4}{x}+\dfrac{4}{x^2-9}=\dfrac{3}{x-3}[/tex]
Domain:
[tex]x\neq0\ \wedge\ x^2-9\neq0\ \wedge\ x-3\neq0\\\\x\neq0\ \wedge\ x\neq\pm3[/tex]
solution:
[tex]\dfrac{4}{x}+\dfrac{4}{x^2-3^2}=\dfrac{3}{x-3}[/tex]
use (a - b)(a + b) = a² - b²
[tex]\dfrac{4}{x}+\dfrac{4}{(x-3)(x+3)}=\dfrac{3}{x-3}[/tex]
multiply both sides by (x - 3) ≠ 0
[tex]\dfrac{4(x-3)}{x}+\dfrac{4(x-3)}{(x-3)(x+3)}=\dfrac{3(x-3)}{x-3}[/tex]
cancel (x - 3)
[tex]\dfrac{4(x-3)}{x}+\dfrac{4}{x+3}=3[/tex]
subtract [tex]\frac{4(x-3)}{x}[/tex] from both sides
[tex]\dfrac{4}{x+3}=3-\dfrac{4(x-3)}{x}\\\\\dfrac{4}{x+3}=\dfrac{3x}{x}-\dfrac{(4)(x)+(4)(-3)}{x}\\\\\dfrac{4}{x+3}=\dfrac{3x-\bigg(4x-12\bigg)}{x}\\\\\dfrac{4}{x+3}=\dfrac{3x-4x-(-12)}{x}\\\\\dfrac{4}{x+3}=\dfrac{-x+12}{x}[/tex]
cross multiply
[tex](4)(x)=(x+3)(-x+12)[/tex]
use FOIL
[tex]4x=(x)(-x)+(x)(12)+(3)(-x)+(3)(12)\\\\4x=-x^2+12x-3x+36[/tex]
subtract 4x from both sides
[tex]0=-x^2+12x-3x+36-4x[/tex]
combine like terms
[tex]0=-x^2+(12x-3x-4x)+36\\\\0=-x^2+5x+36[/tex]
change the signs
[tex]x^2-5x-36=0\\\\x^2-9x+4x-36=0\\\\x(x-9)+4(x-9)=0\\\\(x-9)(x+4)=0[/tex]
The product is 0 if one of the factors is 0. Therefore:
[tex]x-9=0\ \vee\ x+4=0[/tex]
[tex]x-9=0[/tex] add 9 to both sides
[tex]x=9\in D[/tex]
[tex]x+4=0[/tex] subtract 4 from both sides
[tex]x=-4\in D[/tex]

Based on a poll, among adults who regret getting tattoos, 12% say that they were too young when they got their tattoos. Assume that ten adults who regret getting tattoos are randomly selected, and find the indicated probability.
Required:
a. Find the probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.
b. Find the probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.
c. Find the probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.
Answer:
a. 0.6588
b. 0.3978
c. 0. 279
Step-by-step explanation:
In the given question the success and failure are given the number of outcomes is fixed so binomial distribution can be applied.
Here success= p = 12 % or 12/100 = 0.12
failure = q= 1-p = 1-0.12 = 0.88
n= 10
Using binomial probability distribution
a. Probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1 is calculated as:
P (x=0,1) = 0.12 ⁰(0.88)¹⁰10 C0 + 0.12 (0.88)⁹ 10 C1= 1* 0.279 * 1 + 0.12 ( 0.3165) 10 = 0. 279 + 0.3978= 0.6588
b. Probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos is calculated as
P (x=1) = 0.12 (0.88)⁹ 10 C1= 0.12 ( 0.3165) 10 = 0.3978
c. Probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos is
P (x=0) = 0.12 ⁰(0.88)¹⁰10 C0 = 1* 0.279 * 1 = 0. 279

Answer:
A.y = −8x + 80B
Step-by-step explanation:
first you have to find the slope :
P1(2,64). P2(6,32)
slope=Y2-Y1/X2-X1
slope=64-32/2-6
slope= -8
y= -8x + b. now solve for "b" by using one of the coordinates given above.
y= -8x + b. I will use coordinate p(2,64)
64= -8(2) + b
64 + 16 = b
80= b
you can use any of the coordinates i.e either P1(2,64)or P2(6,32) it doesn't affect the value of "b".
line of equation is :
.y = −8x + 80B

Find the value of annuity if the periodic deposit is $400 at 4% compounded monthly for 18 years
Answer:
~820.8$
Step-by-step explanation:
The total money (M) after 18 years could be calculated by:
M = principal x (1 + rate)^time
with
principal = 400$
rate = 4% compounded monthly = 0.04/12
time = 18 years = 18 x 12 = 216 months (because of compounded monthly rate)
=> M = 400 x (1 + 0.04/12)^216 = ~820.8$
Explain what a directed line segment is and describe how you would find the coordinates of point P along a directed line segment AB that partitions AB so that the ratio of AP to PB is 3:1.
Answer: see below
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to partition line segment AB so that AP and PB have a ratio of 3 : 1
1) Find the x- and y-lengths of the segment AB.
2) Divide the x- and y-lengths by (3 + 1) to find the length of one section.
3) Add 3 times those lengths to point A to find point P ...or...
Subtract 1 times those lengths from point B to find point P.
For example: Consider A = (0, 0) and B = (4, 8)
1) The length from A to B is
x = 4-0 = 4
y = 8-0 = 8
2) Divide those by (3 + 1):
x = 4/4 = 1
y = 8/4 = 2
3) Add 3 times those values to A to find point P:
x = 0 + 3(1) = 3
y = 0+3(2) = 6
--> P = (3, 6)
Note: We could have also subtracted 1 from the x-value of B and 2 from the y-value of B to find that point P = (4-1, 8-2) = (3, 6)
Now we know that the distance from point A to point P is 3 times the distance from point P to point B.

Find the value of annuity if the periodic deposit is $250 at 5% compounded quarterly for 10 years
Answer:
The value of annuity is [tex]P_v = \$ 7929.9[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The periodic payment is [tex]P = \$ 250[/tex]
The interest rate is [tex]r = 5\% = 0.05[/tex]
Frequency at which it occurs in a year is n = 4 (quarterly )
The number of years is [tex]t = 10 \ years[/tex]
The value of the annuity is mathematically represented as
[tex]P_v = P * [1 - (1 + \frac{r}{n} )^{-t * n} ] * [\frac{(1 + \frac{r}{n} )}{ \frac{r}{n} } ][/tex] (reference EDUCBA website)
substituting values
[tex]P_v = 250 * [1 - (1 + \frac{0.05}{4} )^{-10 * 4} ] * [\frac{(1 + \frac{0.05}{4} )}{ \frac{0.08}{4} } ][/tex]
[tex]P_v = 250 * [1 - (1.0125 )^{-40} ] * [\frac{(1.0125 )}{0.0125} ][/tex]
[tex]P_v = 250 * [0.3916 ] * [\frac{(1.0125)}{0.0125} ][/tex]
[tex]P_v = \$ 7929.9[/tex]

When government revenues exceed government outlays in a particular year, this is called a d) budget surplus.
What is budget surplus?A budget surplus occurs when a government's income from taxes and other sources of revenue exceed its expenses and spending on public programs, services, and infrastructure. A budget surplus is a positive indicator for the government's financial health as it indicates that the government is able to manage its finances well, generate more revenue than it spends, and potentially pay off any debts.
Here, we have,
In contrast, a budget deficit occurs when government spending exceeds its revenue, resulting in increased debt and a potentially negative impact on the government's credit rating.
Budget surpluses can be used to invest in public projects or programs, reduce debt, or returned to taxpayers in the form of tax cuts.
However, it is important to note that budget surpluses can also be a result of reduced spending on public programs, which can have a negative impact on social services and infrastructure.
Therefore, the correct answer is d) budget surplus.

How much of a radioactive kind of sodium will be left after 9 years if you start with 96 grams and the half-life is 3 years?
Answer:
9 years = 12 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
0 years = 96 grams
After 3 years , the amount left is 1/2 of what you started with
3 years = 1/2 *96 = 48 grams
After 3 years , the amount left is 1/2
6 years = 1/2 (48) = 24 grams
After 3 years , the amount left is 1/2
9 years = 1/2 ( 24) = 12 grams
i dont understand how to find Which ordered pair is a solution of the equation? y=8x+3
Answer:
Step 1:
To find ordered pair solutions, you could create an x and y graph and fill out the x side. Then, plug in an x number to get your y number and graph the ordered pairs to see if they give you a straight line. I'm going to use these numbers: -1, 0, 1, and 2.
[tex]...x...|...y...[/tex]
[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-1&?\\0&?\\1&?\\2&?\end{array}\right][/tex]
Now, let's plug in -1 into the equation first to see what we get for y.
[tex]y=8(-1)+3\\y=-8+3\\y=-5\\(-1,-5)[/tex]
-5 is our y if x was -1.
We do the same for the other three numbers.
[tex]y=8(0)+3\\y=0+3\\y=3\\(0,3)[/tex]
[tex]y=8(1)+3\\y=8+3\\y=11\\(1,11)[/tex]
[tex]y=8(2)+3\\y=16+3\\y=19\\(2,19)[/tex]
Step 2:
With all that done, we can now fill out our table and graph the points.
[tex]....x...|...y....[/tex]
[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-1&-5\\0&3\\1&11\\2&19\end{array}\right][/tex]
If you graph these points on graph paper / a graphing website, you will see that these points go in a straight line. If you are given an ordered pair already (for example: (3,5)), then all you have to do is plug in the x into the equation (3) and see if the outcome is true (5).
[tex]5=8(3)+3\\5=24+3\\5\neq 27[/tex]
Since they don't equal each other, then (3,5) is false.
Here is the graph for the table above. I hope I helped you!
Lets go over the solutions.
Let's start with (1, 11). After substituting x = 1 and y = 11, it results in the equation 11 = 11, which is a true statement. Hence, this is one solution.
Now, let's look at (-1 -5). After substituting x = -1 and y = -5, it results in the equation -5 = -5, which is also a true statement. So, this being said, (-1, -5) would also be a solution.
Hence, our two solutions are:
Both [tex](1, 11)[/tex] and [tex](-1, -5)[/tex].

[tex]\frac{x}{7}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{x}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )
x² = 21 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = [tex]\sqrt{21}[/tex]
In a survey from 1998, 449 teenagers were surveyed about the music that they listen to. Of these teenagers, 129 of them said that their favorite genre of music is hip-hop. In a similar survey from 2008, 176 of 509 teenagers surveyed said that their favorite genre is hip-hop. Use a two-proportion hypothesis test to determine whether the proportion of teenagers whose favorite genre of music is hip-hop has changed from 1998 to 2008. Assume that the samples are random and independent. Use α=0.01. Let the sample from 1998 correspond to sample 1 and the other to sample 2. (a) Which answer choice shows the correct null and alternative hypotheses for this test? Select the correct answer below: H0:p1=p2; Ha:p1p2, which is a right-tailed test. H0:p1=p2; Ha:p1≠p2, which is a two-tailed test.
Answer:
H0:p1=p2; Ha:p1≠p2, which is a two-tailed test.
Step-by-step explanation:
We formulate our hypotheses as
H0:p1=p2; Ha:p1≠p2, which is a two-tailed test.
Supposing the probability or proportion of the first survey is equal to the probability or proportion of the second survey. This will be the null hypothesis and the alternative hypotheses would be that these two proportions or probabilities are unequal.
This is a two tailed test.
baby weights: a study was conducted to determin the average birth weight (in ounces) of babies born in hospitals in a five county area of a given state. A Simple Random Sample of Recent birth records at the local hospitals were selected and the confidence interval was calulated to be (117.89 ounces, 124.91), at a 95% level of confidence. Which statistic is appropriate for this confidences interval?
Answer: Sample mean [tex](\overline{x})[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: A study was conducted to determine the average birth weight (in ounces) of babies born in hospitals in a five county area of a given state.
i.e. The parameter of the study is [tex]\mu[/tex] . (Population mean).
A Simple Random Sample of Recent birth records at the local hospitals were selected and the confidence interval was calculated to be (117.89 ounces, 124.91), at a 95% level of confidence.
Since a measure of sample is a statistic , and this case statistic is sample mean denoted by [tex]\overline{x}[/tex].
Hence, the statistic is appropriate for this confidences interval : [tex]\overline{x}[/tex]
