Answer:

AC (b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 10 is half of 20, you have to find the variable closest to the middle. Which in this case, is C. So, your awnser is B. (AC)

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf C}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The whole segment is [tex]\sf \sqrt {20}[/tex], we can see that AD is approximately 75% of the segment AE.

[tex]75\%*\sqrt{20} = 3.354102[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{10}= 3.162278[/tex]

AC is almost half of AE.

[tex]\frac{\sqrt{20} }{2} = 2.2360679775[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{10} = 3.16227766017[/tex]

It isn’t close to the option C.

Find the difference of functions at x= - 3, (g - f)(-3), given f(x) and g(x): g(x) = x^2−15, and f(x) =2x

Answers

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

We are given two functions as follows:

                      [tex]f ( x ) = x^2 - 15\\\\g ( x ) = 2x[/tex]

We need to determine the composite function defined as ( g - f ) ( x ). To determine this function we need to make sure that both function exist for all real positive value of x.

The function f ( x ) is a quadratic function which has real values for all values of x. Similarly, function g ( x ) is a linear line that starts from the origin. Hence, both functions are defined over the domain ( -∞, ∞ )

We will perform arithmetic operation of subtracting function f ( x ) from g ( x ) as follows:

                       [tex][ g - f ] ( x ) = g ( x ) - f ( x )\\\\\\( g - f ) ( x ) = x^2 - 15 - 2x\\\\[/tex]

Now evaluate the above determined function at x = -3 as follows:

                       [tex]( g - f ) ( -3 ) = ( -3 )^2 - 2 ( -3 ) - 15\\\\( g - f ) ( -3 ) = 9 + 6 - 15\\\\( g - f ) ( -3 ) = 0[/tex]

Answer:

Quantity (lbs) of type 1 candy  x = 8

Quantity (lbs) of type 2 candy  y = 17,5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let´s call  "x" quantity (in pounds) of candy type 1 in the mixture, and "y" quantity (in pounds ) of candy type 2, then according to the problem statement.

x  +  y  =  25,5

2,20*x  +  7,30*y = 5,70 * 25,5   ⇒  2,20*x  +  7,30*y = 145,35

Then we have a two equation system

x  +  y  =  25,5                                   ⇒   y = 25,5 - x

2,20*x  +  7,30*y = 145,35               ⇒ 2,20*x + 7,30* (25,5 - x ) = 145,35

2,20*x + 186,15 - 7,30*x = 145,35

5,1*x  = 40,8

x = 40,8/5,1

x = 8 lbs

And   y  =  25,5 - 8

y = 17,5 lbs

What is Quadratic Equation?

A quadratic equation is a second-order polynomial equation in a single variable x , ax²+ bx + c = 0. with a ≠ 0. Because it is a second-order polynomial equation, the fundamental theorem of algebra guarantees that it has at least one solution. The solution may be real or complex.

Given data ,

The polynomial function is of second degree with zeros of -7 and 6

So , x = -7 and x = 6

Let the function be f ( x ) where f ( x ) = ( x + 7 ) ( x - 6 )

Now , as x tends to infinity , the negative makes no such difference on the zeros of the function f ( x ) ,

And , f ( x ) = - ( x + 7 ) ( x - 6 )

Therefore , to find the polynomial function , f ( x ) = - ( x + 7 ) ( x - 6 )

f ( x ) = - [ x² - 6 x + 7 x - 42 ]

        = - [ x² + x - 42 ]

        = - x ² - x + 42

Hence , the polynomial function f ( x ) = - x ² - x + 42

Which linear inequality is represented by the graph?

Answers

Answer:

A. y ≤ 1/2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Well look at the graph,

It is a solid line with it shaded down,

meaning it is y ≤,

So we can cross out B. and D.

So the y intercept is 2, we know this because the y intercept is the point on the line that touches the y axis.

now the slope can be found by seeing how far away each points are from each other,

Hence, the answer is A. y ≤ 1/2x + 2

At time, t=0, Billy puts 625 into an account paying 6% simple interest. At the end of year 2, George puts 400 into an account paying interest at a force of interest, δt=16+t for t≥2. If both accounts continue to earn interest indefinitely at the levels given above, the amounts in both accounts will be equal at the end of year n. Calculate n.

Answers

Answer:

26

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

At time, t=0, Billy puts 625 into an account paying 6% simple interest

At the end of year 2, George puts 400 into an account paying interest at a force of interest, 1/(6+t), for all t ≥ 2.

If both accounts continue to earn interest indefinitely at the levels given above, the amounts in both accounts will be equal at the end of year n. Calculate n.

In order to calculate n;

Let K constant to be the value of time for both accounts

At  time, t=0, the value of time K when Billy puts 625 into an account paying 6% simple interest is:

[tex]K = 625 \times (1+ 0.06 K)[/tex]

[tex]K = 625 +37.5 K[/tex]

At year end 2; George  amount of 400 will grow at a force interest, then the value of  [tex]K = 400 \times e^{\int\limits^2_k {\dfrac{1}{6+t}} \, dx }[/tex]

[tex]K =400 \times \dfrac{6+K}{6+2}[/tex]

[tex]K =400 \times \dfrac{6+K}{8}[/tex]

[tex]K =50 \times ({6+K})[/tex]

[tex]K =300+50K[/tex]

Therefore:

If K = K

Then:

625 + 37.5 = 300 +50 K

625-300 = 50 K - 37.5 K

325 = 12.5K

K = 325/12.5

K = 26

the amounts in both accounts  at the end of year n = K = 26

The amount of time to complete a physical activity in a PE class is approximately normally normally distributed with a mean of 32.9 seconds and a standard deviation of 6.4 seconds.
A) What is the probability that a randomly chosen student completes the activity in less than 33.2 seconds?
B) What is the probability that a randomly chosen student completes the activity in more than 46.6 seconds?
C) What proportion of students take between 35.5 and 42.8 seconds to complete the activity?
D) 75% of all students finish the activity in less than____seconds.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that mean (μ) of 32.9 seconds and a standard deviation (σ) of 6.4 seconds.

The z score is used to measure by how many standard deviation the raw score is above or below the mean. It is given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\[/tex]

a) For x < 33.2 seconds

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{33.2-32.9}{6.4} =0.05[/tex]

From the normal distribution table, the probability that a randomly chosen student completes the activity in less than 33.2 seconds = P(x < 33.2) = P(z < 0.05) = 0.5199 = 51.99%

b) For x > 46.6 seconds

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{46.6-32.9}{6.4} =2.14[/tex]

From the normal distribution table,  the probability that a randomly chosen student completes the activity in more than 46.6 seconds = P(x > 46.6) = P(z > 2.14) = 1 - P(z < 2.14) = 1 - 0.9927 = 0.0073 = 0.73%

c) For x = 35.5 seconds

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{35.5-32.9}{6.4} =0.41[/tex]

For x = 42.8 seconds

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{42.8-32.9}{6.4} =1.55[/tex]

From the normal distribution table, the proportion of students take between 35.5 and 42.8 seconds to complete the activity = P(35.5 < x < 42.8) = P(0.41< z< 1.55) = P(z < 1.55) - P(z < 0.41) = 0.9332 - 0.6591 = 0.2741 = 27.41%

d) A probability of 75% = 0.75 corresponds to a z score of 0.68

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\0.68=\frac{x-32.9}{6.4} \\\\x-32.9=4.4\\x=4.4+32.9\\x=37.3[/tex]

75% of all students finish the activity in less than 37.3 seconds

Answer:

[tex]\dfrac{15}{16}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

When a six sided die is rolled, the possible outcomes can be:

{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

Even numbers are {2, 4, 6}

Odd Numbers are {1, 3, 5}

Probability of even numbers:

[tex]\dfrac{\text{Favorable cases}}{\text{Total cases }} = \dfrac{3}{6} = \dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

This is binomial distribution.

where probability of even numbers,  [tex]p =\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Probability of getting r successes out of n trials:

[tex]P(r) = _nC_r\times p^r q^{n-r}[/tex]

Probability of getting even numbers at most 5 times out of 7 is given as:

P(0) + P(1) +P(2) + P(3) +P(4) + P(5)

[tex]\Rightarrow _7C_0\times \frac{1}{2}^0 \frac{1}{2}^{7}+_7C_1\times \frac{1}{2}^1 \frac{1}{2}^{6}+_7C_2\times \frac{1}{2}^2 \frac{1}{2}^{5}+_7C_3\times \frac{1}{2}^3 \frac{1}{2}^{4}+_7C_4\times \frac{1}{2}^4 \frac{1}{2}^{3}+_7C_5\times \frac{1}{2}^5 \frac{1}{2}^{2}[/tex]

Thus, their heights will vary and can take on any value within a particular range.

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (-3, -8) and (4,6).

Answers

Answer:

slope = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a slope:

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

We have

[tex](-3;\ -8)\to x_1=-3;\ y_1=-8\\(4;\ 6)\to x_2=4;\ y_2=6[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]m=\dfrac{6-(-8)}{4-(-3)}=\dfrac{6+8}{4+3}=\dfrac{14}{7}=2[/tex]

The formula for the slope m of the line that passes through two points [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex] is the following:

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_1-y_2}{x_1-x_2}[/tex]

We have points (4,6) and (-3,-8). Let's plug these values into the formula for slope:

[tex]m=\dfrac{6-(-8)}{4-(-3)}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{14}{7}=2[/tex]

The slope of the line passing through the two points is 2. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

The school district uses the Hamilton method to apportion its 22 board members to the 4 towns. How many board members are assigned to each town, using this method? 2. The following year, 900 people move out of Town D. Two hundred of these people move Town C, and 700 of them move to Town B. Now, how many board members does each town have? (Be careful. Make sure you assign a total of 22 board members). 3. Compare the results from the 2 years. Do you think they make sense? How do you think each town would react? Are they fair? Why or Why not?

Answers

Answer:

(A, B, C, D) = (2, 2, 6, 12)(A, B, C, D) = (2, 2, 6, 12)identical results; yes, they make senseyes they are fair

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The Hamilton method has you compute the number represented by each board member (total population/# members). Using this factor, the number of board members for each district are computed. This raw value is rounded down.

Because this total does not allocate all board members, the remaining members of the board are allocated to the districts based on the size of the fraction that was truncated when rounding down. Allocations start with the largest fraction and work down until all board members have been allocated.

The attached spreadsheet implements this algorithm using a "threshold" that is adjusted to a value between 0 and 1, signifying the cutoff point between a fraction value that gets an additional member and one that doesn't. (Often, that threshold can be set at 0.5, equivalent to rounding the raw board member value to the nearest integer.)

The resulting allocations are ...

  Town A: 2

  Town B: 2

  Town C: 6

  Town D: 12

__

2. The second attachment shows the result after the population move. The allocations of board members are identical.

__

3. The "factor" (persons per board member) is about 4500, so we don't expect a move of 900 people to make any difference in the allocation. These results make complete sense.

__

4. Of course each town will consider its own interest at the expense of everyone else, so they may or may not consider the results fair. The towns have population ratio of about 9 : 9 : 25 : 56, so the ratios 2 : 2 : 6 : 12 are quite in line. Even in the second year, when the ratios are closer to 9 : 10 : 26 : 56, the changes are small enough that the allocation of board members still makes sense. The results are fair.

Comment on "fair"

The reason there are different methods of allocation is that each seeks to rectify some perceived flaw in one or more of the others. The reason there is not a general agreement on the method to be used is that some benefit more from one method than from another. "Fair" is in the eye of the beholder. I believe in this case it would be very difficult to justify any other allocations than the ones computed here.

The cost of plastering the 4 walls of a room which is 4m high and breadth one third of its length is Rs. 640 at the rate of Rs. 5/m². What will be the cost of carpeting its floor at the rate of Rs. 250/m².​

Answers

Answer:

Rs. 32,000

Step-by-step explanation:

height = 4m

let length = x m

breadth = x/3 m

Area of the 4 walls = 2(length × height) + 2(breadth × height)

Area = 2(4×x) + 2(4 × x/3) = 8x + (8x)/3

Area = (32x)/3 m²

1 m² = Rs. 5

The cost for an area that is (32x)/3 m²=  (32x)/3  × 5 Rs.

The cost of plastering 4 walls at Rs.5 per m² = 640

(32x)/3  × 5  = 640

(160x)/3 = 640

x = length = 12

Area =  (32x)/3 m² = (32×12)/3 = 128m²

The cost of carpeting its floor at the rate of Rs. 250/m²:

= 128m² × Rs. 250/m² = 32,000

The cost of carpeting its floor at the rate of Rs. 250/m² = Rs. 32,000
