Answer:

[tex]\boxed{D = 15/8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

=> [tex]x^2-\frac{1}{2} x +\frac{1}{2} = 0[/tex]

Comparing it with the standard form of quadratic equation [tex]ax^2+bx+c = 0,[/tex] we get

a = 1, b = -1/2 and c = 1/2

Discriminant = [tex]b^2-4ac[/tex]

SQUARE:

The area of the square is:

[tex]9x^2-12x+4[/tex]

Factor it:

[tex]=9x^2-6x-6x+4\\=3x(3x-2)-2(3x-2)\\=(3x-2)(3x-2)\\=(3x-2)^2[/tex]

Remember that all four sides of a square is equal. The area is simply the side squared. Therefore, all four sides of the square measure (3x-2).

RECTANGLE:

[tex]25x^2-16y^2\\[/tex]

Factor it. This resembles the difference of two squares, where:

[tex](x-a)(x+a)=x^2-a^2[/tex]

[tex]25x^2-16y^2\\=(5x)^2-(4y)^2\\=(5x-4y)(5x+4y)[/tex]

This cannot be simplified further. Note that the sides of rectangles doesn't necessarily have to be the same.

The dimensions of the rectangle is:

(5x-4y) by (5x+4y)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. the area of square is 9x^2-12x+4 square units

shortcut: (a-b)^2= a^2-2ab+b^2

then simplify 9x^2-12x+4 to (3x-2)^2

area of square = s^2

then side equals sqrt((3x-2)^2)

s = (3x-2) units

2. the area of rectangle is (25x^2-16y^2) square units

shortcut: (a^2-b^2) = (a-b)(a+b)

then simplify (25x^2-16y^2) to (5x-4y)(5x+4y) square units

one side is: (5x-4y) units

one side is (5x+4y) units

Answer:

1/19

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say there are x yellow cubes.

That means there are 3x blue cubes.

Therefore, there must be 15x green cubes.

In total: we have 19x cubes.

Therefore the probability of a cube being yellow is x / 19x

which simplifies to 1/19

Answer:

1/19

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- First we will define the distribution of colors in the bag.

- We will use variable:

                     x: the number of yellow cubes in bag

- The following color distribution can be made by using the data given in the question:

                   Color                     Number of cubes

                   Yellow                               x

                   Blue                                  3*x = 3x

                   Green                               3x*5 = 15x

          ======================================

                  Total                                 19x

          ======================================

- Sarah is to draw a cube from the bag. We are to determine the probability that the randomly picked cube would be yellow. We will denote our event as randomly picking a yellow cube from the bag with a defined finite distribution.

         p ( Picks Yellow cube ) = [ Number of yellow cubes ] / [ Total cubes ]

         p ( Picks Yellow cube ) = [ x ] / [ 19x ]

         p ( Picks Yellow cube ) = 1 / 19   .... Answer

A cylinder has radius r and height h. A. How many times greater is the surface area of a cylinder when both dimensions are multiplied by a factor of 2? 3? 5? 10? B. Describe the pattern in part (a).

Answers

Answer: A. Factor 2 => 4x greater

                   Factor 3 => 9x greater

                   Factor 5 => 25x greater

Step-by-step explanation: A. A cylinder is formed by 2 circles and a rectangle in the middle. That's why surface area is given by circumference of a circle, which is the length of the rectangle times height of the rectangle, i.e.:

A = 2.π.r.h

A cylinder of radius r and height h has area:

[tex]A_{1}[/tex] = 2πrh

If multiply both dimensions by a factor of 2:

[tex]A_{2}[/tex] = 2.π.2r.2h

[tex]A_{2}[/tex] = 8πrh

Comparing [tex]A_{1}[/tex] to [tex]A_{2}[/tex] :

[tex]\frac{A_{2}}{A_{1}}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8.\pi.rh}{2.\pi.rh}[/tex] = 4

Doubling radius and height creates a surface area of a cylinder 4 times greater.

By factor 3:

[tex]A_{3} = 2.\pi.3r.3h[/tex]

[tex]A_{3} = 18.\pi.r.h[/tex]

Comparing areas:

[tex]\frac{A_{3}}{A_{1}}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{18.\pi.r.h}{2.\pi.r.h}[/tex] = 9

Multiplying by 3, gives an area 9 times bigger.

By factor 5:

[tex]A_{5} = 2.\pi.5r.5h[/tex]

[tex]A_{5} = 50.\pi.r.h[/tex]

Comparing:

[tex]\frac{A_{5}}{A_{1}}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{50.\pi.r.h}{2.\pi.r.h}[/tex] = 25

The new area is 25 times greater.

B. By analysing how many times greater and the factor that the dimensions are multiplied, you can notice the increase in area is factor². For example, when multiplied by a factor of 2, the new area is 4 times greater.

The Greenpoint factory produced two-fifths of the Consolidated Brick Company's bricks in 1991. If the Greenpoint factory produced 1,400 tons of bricks in 1991, what was the Consolidated Brick Company's total output that year, in tons?

Answers

Answer:

3,500 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 1,400 tons is 2/5 of the Consolidated Brick Company's output.

This means that 1/5 must be equal to 700 tons if 2/5 is 1,400.

So, we can find the total output by multiplying 700 by 5, since 700 is 1/5 of the total.

700(5) = 3,500 tons

Answer:

Does this sample provide convincing evidence that the machine is working properly?

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal distribution test:

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

Where,

[tex]x: \text{ sample mean}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma: \text{ standard deviation}[/tex]

[tex]n: \text{ sample size determination}[/tex]

[tex]\mu: \text{ hypothesized size of the screw}[/tex]

[tex]$z=\frac{(1.476-1.5)\sqrt{200} }{0.203 } $[/tex]

[tex]$z=\frac{(-0.024)10\sqrt{2} }{0.203 } $[/tex]

[tex]z \approx -1.672[/tex]

Once the significance level was not given, It is usually taken an assumption of a 5% significance level.

Taking the significance level of 5%, which means a confidence level of 95%, we have a z-value of [tex]\pm 1.96[/tex]

Therefore, we fail to reject the null. It means that the hypothesis test is not statistically significant: the average length is not different from 1.5!

Answer:

a. u = 19b. t = 6c. a = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Given,

v = 34 , a = 5 , t = 3

[tex]v = u + at[/tex]

plugging the values:

[tex]34 = u + 5 \times 3[/tex]

Calculate the product

[tex]34 = u + 15[/tex]

Move 'u' to L.H.S and change its sign

[tex] - u + 34 = 15[/tex]

Move constant to RHS and change its sign

[tex] - u = 15 - 34[/tex]

Calculate

[tex] - u = - 19[/tex]

The difference sign (-) will be cancelled in both sides:

[tex]u = 19[/tex]

b. Given,

v = 50 , u = 20 , a = 5

[tex]v = u + at[/tex]

plugging the values

[tex]50 = 20 + 5 \times t[/tex]

[tex]50 = 20 + 5t[/tex]

Move 5t to L.H.S and change its sign.

Similarly, Move 50 to R.H.S and change its sign

[tex] - 5t = 20 - 50[/tex]

Calculate

[tex] - 5t = - 30[/tex]

The difference sign (-) will be cancelled in both sides

[tex]5t = 30[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by 5

[tex] \frac{5t}{5} = \frac{30}{5} [/tex]

Calculate

[tex]t = 6[/tex]

c. Given,

v = 22 , u = 8 , t = 7

[tex]v = u + at[/tex]

plugging the values

[tex]22 = 8 + a \times 7[/tex]

[tex]22 = 8 + 7a[/tex]

Move 7a to LHS and change its sign

Similarly, Move constant to R.H.S and change its sign

[tex] - 7a = 8 - 22[/tex]

Calculate

[tex] - 7a = - 14[/tex]

The difference sign (-) will be cancelled in both sides

[tex]7a = 14[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by 7

[tex] \frac{7a}{7} = \frac{14}{7} [/tex]

Calculate

[tex]a = 2[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the coordinates P(-2, -3). Q(2, - 6). R(6. - 3). S(2, 1), to determine the type of shape the quadrilateral is, we need to find the measure of the sides. To get the measure of each sides, we will take the distance between the adjacent coordinates using the formula to formula for calculating the distance between two points as shown;

D = √(x₂-x₁)²-(y₂-y₁)²

For the side PQ with the coordinate P(-2, -3). Q(2, - 6)

PQ = √(2-(-2))²-(-6-(-3))²

PQ = √(2+2)²-(-6+3)²

PQ = √4²-(-3)²

PQ = √16-9

PQ = √7

For the side QR with the coordinate Q(2, - 6) and R(6, -3)

QR = √(6-2))²-(-3-(-6))²

QR = √(4)²-(3)²

QR = √16-9

QR = √7

For the side RS with the coordinate R(6. - 3) and S(2, 1)

RS = √(2-6)²-(1-(-3))²

RS = √(-4)²-(1+3)²

RS = √16-(4)²

RS = √16-16

RS = 0

For the side PS with the coordinate P(-2, -3) and S(2, 1)

PS = √(2-(-2))²-(1-(-3))²

PS = √(4)²-(1+3)²

PS = √16-(4)²

PS = √16-16

PS = 0

For the quadrilateral to be a rectangle, then two of its sides must be equal and parallel to each other. A rectangle is a plane shape that has two of its adjacent sides equal and parallel to each other. Since two of he sides are equal i.e RS = PS and PQ = QR then the quadrilateral PQRS is a rectangle. Both rhombus and square has all of its sides equal thereby making them wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

$0.05 x 1.5 = 0,075 x 1 hour (60) = 4,5

$0.03 x 1.5 = 0,045 x half an hour (30) = 1,35

So 4.5 + 1.35 = 5.85

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of the conference call before 8 pm =0.15 * 0.05 = $ 0.075

Cost of the conference call after 8 pm   = 0.15 * 0.03 = $ 0. 045

Cost of the conference call from 7pm to 8pm that last  60 minutes= 0.075 * 60

The area is length times width, or in this case: 6 times 4.

Answer:

266.67 feet^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale is 1:40.

That means that if the scale has a width of 4 inches, the room will have a width of 4 * 40 = 160 inches. 160 / 12 = 80 / 6 = 40 / 3 feet.

The length in the model is 6 inches, so the room has a length of 6 * 40 = 240 inches. 240 / 12 = 120 / 6 = 60 / 3 = 20 feet.

The area will then be (40 / 3) * 20 = 800 / 3 = 266.67 feet^2.

Find the 12th term of the arithmetic sequence whose common difference is d=6 and whose first term is a, = 2.

Answers

Answer:

The 12th term is 68

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sequence is an arithmetic sequence

For an nth term in an arithmetic sequence

A(n) = a + ( n - 1)d

where a is the first term

n is the number of terms

d is the common difference

From the question

d = 6

a = 2

n = 12

So the 12th term of the sequence is

A(12) = 2 + (12-1)6

= 2 + 11(6)

= 2 + 66

A(12) = 68
