Answer:
253°
Step-by-step explanation:
The central angle whose rays intercept a diameter of the circle has measure 180 deg.
m<AOD = 73 deg
m<DOB = 180 deg
m<ADB = m<AOD +m<DOB = 73 deg + 180 deg = 253 deg
The measure of an arc of a circle is equal to the measure of the central angle that subtends it.
m(arc)AOD = m<AOD = 253 deg
Answer: 253°
The solution is, the measure of Arc A D B is 253°.
What is an angle?In Plane Geometry, a figure which is formed by two rays or lines that shares a common endpoint is called an angle. The two rays are called the sides of an angle, and the common endpoint is called the vertex.
Here, we have,
given that AC and BD are diameters of circle O.
AC and BD intersect at point C the centre of the circle.
The central angle of a circle is the angle based at the circle's center. In other words, the vertex of the angle must be at the center of the circle. A central angle is formed by two radii that start at the center and intersect the circle itself.
The central angle whose rays intercept a diameter of the circle has measure 180 deg.
m<AOD = 73 deg
m<DOB = 180 deg
m<ADB = m<AOD +m<DOB = 73 deg + 180 deg = 253 deg
The measure of an arc of a circle is equal to the measure of the central angle that subtends it.
m(arc)AOD = m<AOD = 253 deg
Answer: the measure of Arc A D B is 253°.

At a sand and gravel plant, sand is falling off a conveyor and onto a conical pile at a rate of 8 cubic feet per minute. The diameter of the base of the cone is approximately three times the altitude. At what rate is the height of the pile changing when the pile is 22 feet high
Answer:
(11π/9 )ft/s
Step by step Explanation
Let us denote the height as h ft
But we were told that The diameter of the base of the cone is approximately three times the altitude, then
Let us denote the diameter = 3h ft, and the radius is 3h/2
The volume of the cone is
V = (1/3)π r^2 h
Then if we substitute the values we have
= (1/3)π (9h^2/4)(h) = (3/4)π h^3
dV/dt = (9/4)π h^2 dh/dt
We were given as 22feet and rate of 8 cubic feet per minute
h = 22
dV/dt = 8
8= (9/4)π (22) dh/dt
= 11π/9ft/s
Therefore, the rate is the height of the pile changing when the pile is 22 feet is
11π/9ft/s

y=x +2
P(x)=2x^5+9x^4+9x^3+3x^2+7x-6;x=i,-2
Answer:
The value of the polynomial function at P(1) and P(-2) is 24 and 0 respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given with the following polynomial function below;
[tex]\text{P}(x) = 2x^{5} +9x^{4} +9x^{3} +3x^{2}+7x-6[/tex]
Now, we have to calculate the value of P(x) at x = 1 and x = -2.
For this, we will substitute the value of x in the given polynomial and find it's value.
At x = 1;
[tex]\text{P}(1) = 2(1)^{5} +9(1)^{4} +9(1)^{3} +3(1)^{2}+7(1)-6[/tex]
[tex]\text{P}(1) = (2\times 1) +(9\times 1)+(9 \times 1)+(3\times 1)+(7\times 1)-6[/tex]
[tex]\text{P}(1) = 2 +9+9+3+7-6[/tex]
P(1) = 30 - 6
P(1) = 24
At x = -2;
[tex]\text{P}(-2) = 2(-2)^{5} +9(-2)^{4} +9(-2)^{3} +3(-2)^{2}+7(-2)-6[/tex]
[tex]\text{P}(-2) = (2\times -32) +(9\times 16)+(9 \times -8)+(3\times 4)+(7\times -2)-6[/tex]
[tex]\text{P}(-2) = -64 +144-72+12-14-6[/tex]
P(-2) = 156 - 156
P(-2) = 0
Hence, the value of the polynomial function at P(1) and P(-2) is 24 and 0 respectively.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The surface area of a cone is:
● Sa = Pi*r^2 +Pi*r*l
r is the radius and l is the slant heigth
The diameter of this cone is 12 inches so the radius is 6 (12/2=6).
●Sa = Pi*36 +Pi*6*10
●Sa = 301.59 in^2
Answer:
pi (6) * 10+ pi ( 6)^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The surface area of a cone is given by
SA = pi rl +pi r^2 where r is the radius and l is the slant height

calculate the value of angle A to one decimal place. Picture Attached
Answer:
[tex] A = 50.7 [/tex] (to nearest tenth)
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Law of Cosines to find the value of angle A as follows:
[tex] cos(A) = \frac{b^2 + c^2 - a^2}{2*b*c} [/tex]
Where,
a = 7 in
b = 5 in
c = 9 in
Plug in the values into the formula
[tex] cos(A) = \frac{5^2 + 9^2 - 7^2}{2*5*9} [/tex]
[tex] cos(A) = \frac{57}{90} [/tex]
[tex] cos(A) = 0.6333 [/tex]

[tex] A = 50.7 [/tex] (to nearest tenth)
What is the focus of the parabola? y=−1/4x2−x+3
Answer: Focus = (-2, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x^2-x+3\\\\\rightarrow a=-\dfrac{1}{4},\ b=-1[/tex]
First let's find the vertex. We do that by finding the Axis-Of-Symmetry:
[tex]AOS: x=\dfrac{-b}{2a}\quad =\dfrac{-(-1)}{2(\frac{-1}{4})}=\dfrac{1}{-\frac{1}{2}}=-2[/tex]
Then finding the maximum by inputting x = -2 into the given equation:
[tex]y=-\dfrac{1}{4}(-2)^2-(-2)+3\\\\y=-1+2+3\\\\y=4[/tex]
The vertex is: (-2, 4)
Now let's find p, which is the distance from the vertex to the focus:
[tex]a=\dfrac{1}{4p}\\\\\\-\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{1}{4p}\\\\\\p=-1[/tex]
The vertex is (-2, 4) and p = -1
The focus is (-2, 4 + p) = (-2, 4 - 1) = (-2, 3)

The random variable x is the number of houses sold by a realtor in a single month at the Sendsom's Real Estate office. Its probability distribution is as follows:

Find the mean of the given probability distribution.
A. μ = 3.35
B. μ = 3.50
C. μ = 3.60
D. μ = 3.40
Answer:
C. μ = 3.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Two tables have been attached to this response.
One of the tables contains the given data and distribution with two columns: Houses Sold and Probability
The other table contains the analysis of the data with additional columns: Frequency and Fx
=> The Frequency(F) column is derived from the product of the probability of each item in the Houses sold column and the total number of houses sold (which is 28). For example,
When the number of houses sold = 0
F = P(0) x Total number of houses sold
F = 0.24 x 28 = 6.72
When the number of houses sold = 1
F = P(1) x Total number of houses sold
F = 0.01 x 28 = 0.28
=> The Fx column is found by multiplying the Frequency column by the Houses Sold column. For example,
When the number of houses sold = 0
Fx = F * x
F = 6.72 x 0 = 0
Now to get the mean, μ we use the relation;
μ = ∑Fx / ∑F
Where;
∑Fx = summation of the items in the Fx column = 100.8
∑F = summation of the items in the Frequency column = 28
μ = 100.8 / 28
μ = 3.60
Therefore, the mean of the given probability distribution is 3.60
The mean of the discrete probability distribution is given by:
C. μ = 3.60
What is the mean of a discrete distribution?The expected value of a discrete distribution is given by the sum of each outcome multiplied by it's respective probability.
In this problem, the table x - P(x) gives each outcome and their respective probabilities, hence, the mean is:

A cash register has $10 and $50 dollars bills with total of $1080.there are 28 bills in total how many of each bills.
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Let's set this up as a system of equations, where x is equal to the number of 10 dollar bills and y is equal to the number of 50 dollar bills.
10x+50y=1080
x+y=28
We want to solve for x or y. We can rearrange the second equation to find the value of one of the variables.
x+y=28
Subtract x from both sides.
y=28-x
Now, we have a value for y. So, we could replace the y in the first equation with 28-x and the solve for x.
10x+50(28-x)=1080
We use distributive property to undo the parentheses.
10x+1400-50x=1080
We combine like terms.
-40x+1400=1080
We subtract 1400 from both sides.
-40x=-320
We divide both sides by -40.
x=8
Since there are 28 total bills, this means that there must be 20 50 dollar ones because there are 8 10 dollar bills.

Let, present age of son be 'x'
present age of father be 'y'
y = 4x→ equation ( i )
After five years,
Son's age = x + 5
father's age = y + 5
According to Question,
[tex]y + 5 = 3(x + 5)[/tex]
Put the value of y from equation ( i )
[tex]4x + 5 = 3(x + 5)[/tex]
Distribute 3 through the parentheses
[tex]4x + 5 = 3x + 15[/tex]
Move variable to L.H.S and change it's sign
Similarly, Move constant to R.H.S. and change its sign
[tex]4x - 3x = 15 - 5[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]x = 15 - 5[/tex]
Calculate the difference
[tex]x = 10[/tex]
Now, put the value of X in equation ( i ) in order to find the present age of father
[tex]y = 4x[/tex]
plug the value of X
[tex] = 4 \times 10[/tex]
Calculate the product
[tex] = 40[/tex]
Therefore,
Present age of son = 10
present age of father = 40

A manufacturer claims that its rechargeable batteries are good for an average of more than 1.000 charges. A random sample of 100 batteries has a mean life of 1002 charges and a standard deviation of 14. Is there enough evidence to support this claim at a significance level of 0.01?
a. State the hypotheses.
b. State the test statistie information
c. State either the p-value or the critical information d. State your conclusion and explain your reasoning
It's 1000 charges and not 1.000 charges
Answer:
A)Null Hypothesis;H0: μ = 1000
Alternative Hypothesis;Ha: μ ≠ 1000
B) t-statistic = 1.4286
C) p-value = 0.15628
D) We conclude that we will fail to reject the manufacturers claim that its rechargeable batteries are good for an average of more than 1000 charges
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
x = 1002 charges
s = 14
μ = 1000 charges
n = 100
degree of freedom = n - 1 = 100 - 1 = 99
A) The hypotheses are;
Null Hypothesis;H0: μ = 1000
Alternative Hypothesis;Ha: μ ≠ 1000
B) t-statistic = (x - μ)/(s/√n)
(1002 - 1000)/(14/√100) = 1.4286
C) From the t-score calculator results attached, the p-value is approximately 0.15628
D) The P-value of 0.15628 is is greater than the significance level of 0.01, thus we fail to reject the null hypothesis, and we conclude that the result is statistically nonsignificant.

ᵏ⁄₄ *4 ≥ 6*4
k ≥ 24
Answer:
k≥24
Step-by-step explanation:
k/4≥6
Use the multiplication property of equality by multiplying both sides by 4 to get
k≥24
If this is wrong or if I did something wrong, please tell me so I can learn the proper way, I am just treating this like a normal problem
Thank you
In a survey, 29 people were asked how much they spent on their child's last birthday gift. The results were roughly bell-shaped with a mean of $41 and standard deviation of $8. Construct a confidence interval at a 99% confidence level.
Give your answers to one decimal place.
Answer:
The 99% confidence interval is
[tex]37.167< \= x < 44.833[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size is [tex]n = 29[/tex]
The sample mean is [tex]\= x =[/tex]$41
The sample standard deviation is [tex]\sigma =[/tex]$8
The level of confidence is [tex]C =[/tex]99%
Given that the confidence level id 99% the level of confidence is evaluated as
[tex]\alpha = 100 - 99[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 1[/tex]%
Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table which is
[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 2.58[/tex]
The reason we are obtaining values for is because is the area under the normal distribution curve for both the left and right tail where the 99% interval did not cover while is the area under the normal distribution curve for just one tail and we need the value for one tail in order to calculate the confidence interval
Next we evaluate the margin of error which is mathematically represented as
[tex]MOE = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]MOE = 2.58 * \frac{8 }{\sqrt{29} }[/tex]
[tex]MOE = 3.8328[/tex]
The 99% confidence level is constructed as follows
[tex]\= x - MOE < \= x < \= x + MOE[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]41 - 3.8328 < \= x < 41 + 3.8328[/tex]
[tex]37.167< \= x < 44.833[/tex]
