Answer:
34°
Step-by-step explanation:
The law of cosines is good for finding angles when only sides are known. We'll use the conventional sides a, b, c, and angles A, B, C. Yes, we know the problem statement calls the smallest angle "J". We trust you can make the translation.
a² = b² +c² -2bc·cos(A) . . . . . for sides a, b, c and angle A
Solving for the angle, we get ...
A = arccos((b² +c² -a²)/(2bc))
Filling in the numbers with "a" being the shortest side, we have ...
A = arccos((13² +19² -11²)/(2·13·19)) = arccos(409/494)
A ≈ 34.113°
The smallest angle, ∠J, is about 34°.

The value 4 is a lower bound for the zeros of the function shown below.
f(x) = 4x^3 – 12x^2 – x + 15
A) True
B) False
Answer:
False roots are x = -1 or x = 5/2 or x = 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
4 x^3 - 12 x^2 - x + 15 = 0
The left hand side factors into a product with three terms:
(x + 1) (2 x - 5) (2 x - 3) = 0
Split into three equations:
x + 1 = 0 or 2 x - 5 = 0 or 2 x - 3 = 0
Subtract 1 from both sides:
x = -1 or 2 x - 5 = 0 or 2 x - 3 = 0
Add 5 to both sides:
x = -1 or 2 x = 5 or 2 x - 3 = 0
Divide both sides by 2:
x = -1 or x = 5/2 or 2 x - 3 = 0
Add 3 to both sides:
x = -1 or x = 5/2 or 2 x = 3
Divide both sides by 2:
Answer: x = -1 or x = 5/2 or x = 3/2
Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 4x³ - 12x² - x + 15
Set output to 0.
Factor the function.
0 = (x + 1)(2x - 3)(2x - 5)
Set factors equal to 0.
x + 1 = 0
x = -1
2x - 3 = 0
2x = 3
x = 3/2
2x - 5 = 0
2x = 5
x = 5/2
4 is not a lower bound for the zeros of the function.

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
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)

A school counselor surveyed 90 randomly selected students about thé langages they speak. Of thé students surveyed 16 speak more than one langage fluently. Bases on thèse résults, How many of thé 1800 students at thé school can be expected to speak more than one langage fluently
Answer: 320 students
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that a school counselor surveyed 90 randomly selected students about thé langages they speak and thé students surveyed 16 speak more than one langage fluently. This means that 16/90 speak more than one language.
When 1800 students are surveyed, the number of students that can be expected to speak more than one langage fluently will be:
= 16/90 × 1800
= 16 × 20
= 320 students
Six friends went to a restaurant and agreed to share the bill equally. However, two people forgot their wallets so the other four friends' portions of the bill went up by $7 each. How many dollars was the total bill?
Answer:
The total bill was $84
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok so we know a few things, we know that the total cost of the bill is divisible by both 6 and 4, and we know that if we call the total cost of the bill x and the amount each person would pay if it was divided for 6 people y we can write these equations:
[tex]\frac{x}{6}=y[/tex]
[tex]\frac{x}{4}=y+7[/tex]
Now we can substitute the first equation into the second and solve for x
[tex]\frac{x}{4}=\frac{x}{6}+7\\\frac{x}{4}-\frac{x}{6}=7\\\frac{x}{12}=7\\x=7*12=84[/tex]
Therefore, the total bill was $84
Which best describes the relationship between the lines with equations 5x +y = 4 and 20.0 + 4y = 16?

Both given lines are going to intersect at ( 1,-1 ) that's it.
What is a line segment?A line section that can connect two places is referred to as a segment.
The line is here! It extends endlessly in both directions and has no beginning or conclusion.
In other words, a line segment is just part of a big line that is straight and going unlimited in both directions.
Given that
Line 1 ; 5x +y = 4
Line 2 ; 20 + 4y = 16 ⇒ y = -1
At y = -1 the first line is
5x - 1 = 4 ⇒ x = 1
So,
It is clear that line 1 has a point ( 1 .-1 ) and line 2 also passes
through it hence there will an intersection.

Answer:
inverse = ( log(x+4) + log(4) ) / (2log(4)), or
c. y = ( log_4(x+4) + 1 ) / 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Find inverse of
y = 4^(-6x+5) / 4^(-8x+6) - 4
Exchange x and y and solve for y.
1. exchange x, y
x = 4^(-6y+5) / 4^(-8y+6) - 4
2. solve for y
x = 4^(-6y+5) / 4^(-8y+6) - 4
transpose
x+4 = 4^(-6y+5) / 4^(-8y+6)
using the law of exponents
x+4 = 4^( (-6y+5) - (-8y+6) )
simplify
x+4 = 4^( 2y - 1 )
take log on both sides
log(x+4) = log(4^( 2y - 1 ))
apply power property of logarithm
log(x+4) = (2y-1) log(4)
Transpose
2y - 1 = log(x+4) / log(4)
transpose
2y = log(x+4) / log(4) + 1 = ( log(x+4) + log(4) ) / log(4)
y = ( log(x+4) + log(4) ) / (2log(4))
Note: if we take log to the base 4, then log_4(4) =1, which simplifies the answer to
y = ( log_4(x+4) + 1 ) / 2
which corresponds to the third answer.

At a central train station, there are 4 different train routes with trains that leave every 6 minutes, 10 minutes, 12 minutes, and 15 minutes. If each train can hold up to 200 passengers, what is the maximum number of passengers who can leave the station on a train in one hour?
Answer:
5,000 passengers
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Find out how many trains leave each hour.
6 min – 60/6 = 10 x 200 passengers = 2000
10 min – 60/10 = 6 x 200 passengers = 1200
12 min – 60/12 = 5 x 200 passengers = 1000
15 min – 60/15 = 4 x 200 passengers = 800
2. Add it all up.
2000 + 1200 + 1000 + 800 = 5000 passengers
Answer:
5000
Step-by-step explanation:
6 minute train leaves 10 times
10 x 200 = 2000 passengers
10 minute train leaves 6 times
6x200 = 1200
12 minute train leaves 5 times
5x200 =1000
15 minute train leaves 4 times
4x200 =800
2000+1200+1000+800=5000
assuming more than 1 train can be at the station at once
The graph of h(x) is a translation of f (x) = RootIndex 3 StartRoot x EndRoot. On a coordinate plane, a cube root function goes through (negative 3, negative 1), has an inflection point at (negative 2, 0), and goes through (negative 1, 1). Which equation represents h(x)?
Answer:
The correct option is;
[tex]h(x) = \sqrt[3]{x + 2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that h(x) is a translation of f(x) = ∛x
From the points on the graph, given that the function goes through (-1, 1) and (-3, -1) we have;
When x = -1, h(x) = 1
When x = -3, h(x) = -1
h''(x) = (-2, 0)
Which gives
d²(∛(x + a))/dx²= [tex]-\left ( \dfrac{2}{9} \cdot \left (x + a \right )^{\dfrac{-5}{3}}\right )[/tex], have coordinates (-2, 0)
When h(x) = 0, x = -2 which gives;
[tex]-\left ( \dfrac{2}{9} \cdot \left (-2 + a \right )^{\dfrac{-5}{3}}\right ) = 0[/tex]
Therefore, a = (0/(-2/9))^(-3/5) + 2
a = 2
The translation is h(x) = [tex]\sqrt[3]{x + 2}[/tex]
We check, that when, x = -1, y = 1 which gives;
h(x) = [tex]\sqrt[3]{-1 + 2} = \sqrt[3]{1} = 1[/tex] which satisfies the condition that h(x) passes through the point (-1, 1)
For the point (-3, -1), we have;
h(x) = [tex]\sqrt[3]{-3 + 2} = \sqrt[3]{-1} = -1[/tex]
Therefore, the equation, h(x) = [tex]\sqrt[3]{x + 2}[/tex] passes through the points (-1, 1) and (-3, -1) and has an inflection point at (-2, 0).

A total of $10,000 is invested in two mutual funds. The first account yields 5% and the second account yields 6%. How much was invested in each account if the total interest earned in a year is $575?
Answer:
$2,500 was invested in the first account while $7,500 was invested in the second account
Step-by-step explanation:
Here in this question, we want to find the amount which was invested in each of the accounts, given their individual interest rates and the total amount that was accorded as interest from the two investments
Now, since we do not know the amount invested , we shall be representing them with variables.
Let the amount invested in the first account be $x and the amount invested in the second account be $y
Since the total amount invested is $10,000, this means that the summation of both gives $10,000
Mathematically;
x + y = 10,000 ••••••(i)
now for the $x, we have an interest rate of 5%
This mathematically translates to an interest value of 5/100 * x = 5x/100
For the $y, we have an interest rate of 6% and this mathematically translates to a value of 6/100 * y= 6y/100
The addition of both interests, gives 575
Thus mathematically;
5x/100 + 6y/100 = 575
Multiplying through by 100, we have
5x + 6y = 57500 •••••••••(ii)
From 1, we can have x = 10,000-y
let’s substitute this into equation ii
5(10,000-y) + 6y = 57500
50,000-5y + 6y = 57500
50,000 + y = 57500
y = 57500-50,000
y = 7,500
Recall;
x = 10,000-y
so we have;
x = 10,000-7500 = 2,500

If $6a^2 + 5a + 4 = 3,$ then what is the smallest possible value of $2a + 1$?
Answer: 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation: [tex]6a^2+5a+4=3[/tex]
Subtract 3 from both the sides, we get
[tex]6a^2+5a+1=0[/tex]
Now , we can split 5a as 2a+3a and [tex]2a\times 3a = 6a^2[/tex]
So, [tex]6a^2+5a+1=0\Rightarrow\ 6a^2+2a+3a+1=0[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow\ 2a(3a+1)+(3a+1)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ (3a+1)(2a+1)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ (3a+1)=0\text{ or }(2a+1)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ a=-\dfrac{1}{3}\text{ or }a=-\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
At [tex]a=-\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]
[tex]2a+1=2(-\dfrac{1}{3})+1=-\dfrac{2}{3}+1=\dfrac{-2+3}{3}=\dfrac{1}3{}[/tex]
At [tex]a=-\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]2a+1=2(-\dfrac{1}{2})+1=-1+1=0[/tex]
Since, [tex]0< \dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]
Hence, the possible value of 2a+1 is 0.
A car bought for $20,000. Its value depreciates by 10% each year for 3 years. What is the car's worth after3 years?
Answer:
$14,580
Step-by-step explanation:
To start off, 10% of 20,000-one easy way to do this is to multiply 20,000 by 0.1, which is 10% in decimal form
-In doing that, you get 2,000
-Now the question says that the value is depreciated which means it goes down in value, so subtract 2,000 from 20,000 to 18,000
-the value of the car after one year is now $18,000
Now, let's move to the second year. This time find 10% of 18,000
-multiply 18,000 by 0.1 to get 1,800
-since the value is depreciating, or becoming less, we will subtract 1,800 from 18,000 to get 16,200
-the value of the car after two years is now $16,200
Finally, let's look at the value of the car after three years. Only this time, we will now find 10% of 16,200
-multiply 16,200 by 0.1 to get 1,620
-since value is being depreciated, or lessened, we will once again be subtracting. Subtract 1,620 from 16,200 to get 14,580
Therefore, the value of the car after three years is now $14,580.

Solve the equation and show the solution set on a number line: |x+5|=x+5
Answer: x ≥ -5
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's see how the function f(x) = IxI works:
if x ≥ 0, IxI = x
if x ≤ 0, IxI = -x
Notice that for 0, I0I = 0.
Ok, we want that:
|x+5| = x+5
Notice that this is equivalent to:
IxI = x
This means that |x+5| = x+5 is only true when:
(x + 5) ≥ 0
from this we can find the possible values of x:
we can subtract 5 to both sides and get:
(x + 5) -5 ≥ 0 - 5
x ≥ -5
So the graph in the number line will be a black dot in x = -5, and all the right region shaded.

In ∠QRS, m∠R=65°, and m∠S=35°. Which side of ΔQRS is the longest?
Answer:
The longest side of the ΔQRS is Side RS.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: m∠R=65°, m∠S=35° we don't know what m∠Q is in ΔQRS.
To find m∠Q , we first need to know that all triangles have a sum of 180°. Since we are already given two angle measurements ( m∠R and m∠S) we can add them both measurements up which gives us 100°. Then we subtract 100 from the triangle sum which is 180° (180°-100°) and we are left with 80°. Which mean that m∠Q got to be 80°.
Now we know the all the angles measurements we can immediately find out which side is the longest. To find the longest side its always lie opposite the largest angle which in this m∠Q (80°). Which mean that side RS is the longest side in the triangle.

y = 1.6x .... proportional
y = 3/(4x) .... not proportional
y = x .... proportional
y = 12x .... proportional
y = 2x+1 ... not proportional
=================================================
Explanations:
Anything in the form y = k*x is a direct proportional equation. As x goes up, so does y. The same happens if x decreases, and we'll have y also decrease. They go up together or down together. This is where the "direct" comes from. Specifically they change the same amount each time (hence the term "proportional").
For something like y = 1.6x, we have k = 1.6
In the equation y = x, we have y = 1x in reality so k = 1 here.
Lastly, y = 12x has k = 12.
----------------------
The other equations are not in the form y = kx. Whenever we have y = mx+b, with b nonzero, then y = mx+b is not proportional. The value of b must be 0 for it to fit y = kx form. This rules out y = 2x+1 and y = 3+x or y = x+3.
The equation y = 3/(4x) is an inversely proportional equation in the form y = k/x. It cannot be written as y = kx. Note how x is in the denominator for y = 3/(4x) while the same can't be said for y = kx. Inversely proportional equations have x increase and y decrease, or vice versa. They go in opposite directions.
A middle school took all of its 6th grade students on a field trip to see a play at a theatre that has 2000 seats. The students filled 65% of the seats in the theatre. How many 6th graders went on the trip?
Answer: 1,300 students went on the trip
Step-by-step explanation: So we know that 65% filled the seats so let's turn that into a fraction. [tex]\frac{65}{100}[/tex] . Now we know that there are 2,000 seats in total so let's put that into a fraction. [tex]\frac{x}{2,000}[/tex] The x represents the students that went on the trip.
[tex]\frac{65}{100} = \frac{x}{2,000}[/tex] we have to cross multiply
65(2,000) = 100 (x)
130,000 = 100 (x)
130,000 ÷ 100
1,300 = x So now we know that 1,300 went to the trip students

Now, to make the negation we have to consider the rule "To negate an “and” statement, negate each part and change the “and” to “or”."
So, the negation statement would be
Sam is not an orange belt or Kate is not a red belt.

Carrie can inspect a case of watches in 5 hours.James can inspect the same case of watches in 3 hours.After working alone for 1 hour,Carrie stops for lunch.After taking a 40 minute lunch break,Carrie and James work together to inspect the remaining watches.How long do Carrie and James work together to complete the job?
Will mark brainlist if it correct and well explained
Answer:
It takes Carrie and James an hour and a half to finish the job.
Step-by-step explanation:
assuming they have to inspect ONE case of watches.
Carrie can inspect 1/5 case in one hour.
James can inspect 1/3 case in one hour.
Carrie worked alone for 1 hour, so she finished 1/5 of a case.
She leaves 4/5 case to finish.
She had lunch.
After that, Carrie and James worked together for x hours to finish the job.
When they work together, the finish 1/5+1/3 = 8/15 case per hour.
So time to finisher the remaining case
Time = 4/5 / (8/15)
= 4/5 * 15/8
= 3/2 hours
= an hour and a half.

Answer:
The SAS Postulate
Step-by-step explanation:
SAS means Side-Angle-Side; that is, two sides are equal and an angle between those sides are equal. We're given two sides: TK and TL, and we're given that 1 is congruent to 2. Knowing the latter, we can conclude that the angle between them (let's call it 1.5 for our purposes) will be congruent to itself. Since 1.5 is the angle right in the middle of two congruent sides, our answer is SAS.
The mean one-way commute to work in Chowchilla is 7 minutes. The standard deviation is 2.4 minutes, and the population is normally distributed. What is the probability of randomly selecting one commute time and finding that: a). P (x < 2 mins) _____________________________ b). P (2 < x < 11 mins) _____________________________ c). P (x < 11 mins) ________________________________ d). P (2 < x < 5 mins) _______________________________ e). P (x > 5 mins)
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
The mean (μ) one-way commute to work in Chowchilla is 7 minutes. The standard deviation (σ) is 2.4 minutes.
The z score is used to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. It is given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
a) For x < 2:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{2-7}{2.4} =-2.08[/tex]
From normal distribution table, P(x < 2) = P(z < -2.08) = 0.0188 = 1.88%
b) For x = 2:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{2-7}{2.4} =-2.08[/tex]
For x = 11:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{11-7}{2.4} =1.67[/tex]
From normal distribution table, P(2 < x < 11) = P(-2.08 < z < 1.67 ) = P(z < 1.67) - P(z < -2.08) = 0.9525 - 0.0188 = 0.9337
c) For x = 11:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{11-7}{2.4} =1.67[/tex]
From normal distribution table, P(x < 11) = P(z < 1.67) = 0.9525
d) For x = 2:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{2-7}{2.4} =-2.08[/tex]
For x = 5:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{5-7}{2.4} =-0.83[/tex]
From normal distribution table, P(2 < x < 5) = P(-2.08 < z < -0.83 ) = P(z < -0.83) - P(z < -2.08) = 0.2033- 0.0188 = 0.1845
e) For x = 5:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{5-7}{2.4} =-0.83[/tex]
From normal distribution table, P(x < 5) = P(z < -0.83) = 0.2033
Grace starts with 100 milligrams of a radioactive substance. The amount of the substance decreases by 14 each week for a number of weeks, w. She writes the expression 100(14)w to find the amount of radioactive substance remaining after w weeks. Ryan starts with 1 milligram of a radioactive substance. The amount of the substance decreases by 40% each week for a number of weeks, w. He writes the expression (1 – 0.4)w to find the amount of radioactive substance remaining after w weeks. Use the drop-down menus to explain what each part of Grace’s and Ryan’s expressions mean.
Answer:
100= Initial Amount
1/4= decay factor for each week
w= number of weeks
1/4w= decay factor after w weeks
1 - 0.4= decay factor for each week
w= number of weeks
0.4= percent decrease
