Humphrey needs to mail a package. He weighs it at home as 20.2 ounces. When he gets to the post office, the clerk weighs it at 18.6 ounces. What is the percent error in the weight of the package, assuming that his home weight is the correct weight?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

7.92%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following

Weight of package at home = 20.2 ounces.

Weight of the package at the office = 18.6ounces

Decrement = 20.2 - 18.6

percentage error = decrement/wt at home * 100

percentage error = 1.6/20.2* 100

percentage error = 160/20.2

percentage error = 7.92

HEnce  the percent error in the weight of the package is 7.92%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of cylinder = 40 ft

Radius of cylinder = 10 ft

Find:

Can its volume be 10 ft ?

Computation:

Volume of cylinder = πr²h

Volume of cylinder = (22/7)(10)²(40)

Volume of cylinder = (3.14)(10)²(40)

Volume of cylinder = (3.14)(100)(40)

Show that the velocity of the particle at time t is given by v(t)=70t(3t2+8)2 .

Answers

Question:

A particle moves along the x-axis so that its position at time t>0 is given by [tex]x(t)=\frac{t^2 -9}{3t^2 +8}[/tex]

Show that the velocity of the particle at time t is given by [tex]v(t) = \frac{70t}{(3t^2 + 8)^2}[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]v(t) = \frac{70t}{(3t^2 + 8)^2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]x(t)=\frac{t^2 -9}{3t^2 +8}[/tex]

Required

Show that:

[tex]v(t) = \frac{70t}{(3t^2 +8)^2}[/tex]

To calculate v(t), we use:

[tex]v(t) = x'(t)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]x(t)=\frac{t^2 -9}{3t^2 +8}[/tex]

Apply quotient rule

[tex]x'(t) = \frac{vu' - uv'}{v^2}[/tex]

Where

[tex]u =t^2 - 9[/tex]

[tex]v=3t^2 + 8[/tex]

So:

[tex]u =t^2 - 9[/tex]

[tex]u' = 2t[/tex]

[tex]v=3t^2 + 8[/tex]

[tex]v' = 6t[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]x'(t) = \frac{vu' - uv'}{v^2}[/tex]

[tex]x'(t) = \frac{(3t^2 + 8) * 2t - (t^2 - 9) * 6t}{(3t^2 + 8)^2}[/tex]

Expand the numerator

[tex]x'(t) = \frac{6t^3 + 16t - 6t^3 + 54t}{(3t^2 + 8)^2}[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]x'(t) = \frac{6t^3 - 6t^3+ 16t + 54t}{(3t^2 + 8)^2}[/tex]

[tex]x'(t) = \frac{70t}{(3t^2 + 8)^2}[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]v(t) = x'(t)[/tex]

[tex]v(t) = \frac{70t}{(3t^2 + 8)^2}[/tex]

Neil is going to a bookstore 45 miles away. The bridge was closed on the way back, so
he had to take an alternate route and had to drive 15 mph slower, which make the trip
back take 7 minutes longer. How fast was he going on the way to the bookstore?

Answers

Answer:

35 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

As you might have learned in your physics class, the average speed of a car in mph is 50. You should write this down on some paper.

After writing it down, we need to look at what the problem is asking us, so we don't get confused. " How fast was he going on the way to the bookstore?"

This means that we need to calculate his mph speed on the way to the bookstore by subtracting something.

50 mph=Average

Alternate Route= -15

After you have written THAT down in your notes, you need to ask yourself,

"What is 50-15?"

Calculating 50-15 will make the "15 mph slower" show up and calculating that with the average will get you your answer.

50-15 is 35

If sintheta = cos theta then the value of acute angle is ​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the value of the acute angle

From the question, we have it that the sin of the acute angle equals its cosine

Recall;

cos A = sin (90-A)

Hence, if A is 45, then Cos A and Sine A will be the same

This means the value of theta which is the acute angle is 45 degrees

Jordan is 12 years older than Anna. The
sum of their ages is 50. Find the age of
each person.

Answers

Answer:

Jordan age = 31 yearsAnna age = 19 years

Step-by-step explanation:

let Jordan age be X & Anna age be Y

so,

Jordan is 12 years older than Anna.

x = y + 12 ......... (1)

The sum of their ages is 50.

x + y = 50 ........ (2)

putting value of x from (1) into (2)

x + y = 50

(y + 12) + y = 50

2y + 12 = 50

2y = 50 - 12

2y = 38

y = 38÷2

y = 19

putting value of y in (2)

x + y = 50

x + 19 = 50

x = 50 - 19

x = 31

so,

Jordan age = 31 years

Anna age = 19 years

Question : In the given figure , ∆ APB and ∆ AQC are equilateral triangles. Prove that PC = BQ.
~Thanks in advance ! <3​

Answers

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that ΔAPB and ΔAQC are equilateral triangles.

And we want to prove that PC = BQ.

Since ΔAPB and ΔAQC are equilateral triangles, this means that:

[tex]PA\cong AB\cong BP\text{ and } QA\cong AC\cong CQ[/tex]

Likewise:

[tex]\angle P\cong \angle PAB\cong \angle ABP\cong Q\cong \angle QAC\cong\angle ACQ[/tex]

Since they all measure 60°.

Note that ∠PAC is the addition of the angles ∠PAB and ∠BAC. So:

[tex]m\angle PAC=m\angle PAB+m\angle BAC[/tex]

Likewise:

[tex]m\angle QAB=m\angle QAC+m\angle BAC[/tex]

Since ∠QAC ≅ ∠PAB:

[tex]m\angle PAC=m\angle QAC+m\angle BAC[/tex]

And by substitution:

[tex]m\angle PAC=m\angle QAB[/tex]

Thus:

[tex]\angle PAC\cong \angle QAB[/tex]

Then by SAS Congruence:

[tex]\Delta PAC\cong \Delta BAQ[/tex]

And by CPCTC:

[tex]PC\cong BQ[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove PC = BQ, we need to prove triangle APC and ABQ are congruent.

AP = AB as they are part of equilateral triangle APB

AC = AQ as they are part of equilateral triangle AQC

Angle PAC = Angle PAB + Angle BAC = 60 + Angle BAC

Angle BAQ = Angle QAC + Angle BAC = 60 + Angle BAC = Angle PAC

By SAS, triangle APC and ABQ are congruent and therefore

PC = BQ

Step-by-step explanation:

and how -(11 x)/4 - 5 = 0

1/4 (7 x - 12) = 1/2 (9 x + 4)

hope this helps

Answer:

X = 11/20

Step-by-step explanation:

7/4x-3=2+9/2x

We move all terms to the left:

7/4x-3-(2+9/2x)=0

Domain of the equation: 4x!=0

x!=0/4

x!=0

x∈R

Domain of the equation: 2x)!=0

x!=0/1

x!=0

x∈R

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

7/4x-(9/2x+2)-3=0

We get rid of parentheses

7/4x-9/2x-2-3=0

We calculate fractions

14x/8x^2+(-36x)/8x^2-2-3=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

14x/8x^2+(-36x)/8x^2-5=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator

14x+(-36x)-5*8x^2=0

Wy multiply elements

-40x^2+14x+(-36x)=0

We get rid of parentheses

-40x^2+14x-36x=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-40x^2-22x=0

a = -40; b = -22; c = 0;

Δ = b2-4ac

Δ = -222-4·(-40)·0

Δ = 484

The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions

We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:

x1=−b−Δ√2ax2=−b+Δ√2a

Δ−−√=484−−−√=22

x1=−b−Δ√2a=−(−22)−222∗−40=0−80=0

x2=−b+Δ√2a=−(−22)+222∗−40=44−80=−11/20

Find the measure of XY. Assume that segments that appear to be tangent are tangent. Round your final answer to the nearest tenth, if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

Solution given:

7x-29=2x+16[length from the circumference of circle is equal to same point]

7x-2x=16+29

5x=45

x=45/5=9

now.

XY=2×9+16=18+16=34 is your answer

The measure of tangent XY is 34.

What is tangent on a circle?

If two tangents are drawn to a circle from an external point, then they are equal in length.

This property is often used in geometry problems to find the length of a tangent segment or to solve for an unknown variable.

We have,

The two tangents in a circle are equal.

So,

2x + 16 = 7x - 29

Solve for x.

2x + 16 = 7x - 29

7x - 2x = 16 + 29

5x = 45

x = 9

Now,

XY

= 2x + 16

= 2 x 9 + 16

= 18 + 16

= 34

Thus,

The measure of XY is 34.
