A fisherman uses a spring scale to weigh a tilapia fish. He records the fish weight as a kilograms and notices that the spring stretches b centimeters. Which expression represents the spring constant (1 =9.8 )? A). 980ab B). 9.8ab C). 9.8ab D). 980ab

Answers

Answer:

k = [tex]\frac{980a}{b}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Fisherman noticed a stretch in the spring = 'b' centimetres

Weight of the fish = a kilograms

If force applied on a spring scale makes a stretch in the spring then Hook's law for the force applied is,

F = kΔx

Where k = spring constant

Δx = stretch in the spring

F = weight applied

F = mg

Here 'm' = mass of the fish

g = gravitational constant

F = a(9.8)

  = 9.8a

Δx = b centimetres = 0.01b meters

Therefore, 9.8a = k(0.01b)

k = [tex]\frac{9.8a}{0.01b}[/tex]

k = [tex]\frac{980a}{b}[/tex]

Therefore, spring constant of the spring will be determined by the expression, k = [tex]\frac{980a}{b}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

  148°

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the intercepted arc QN is twice the measure of inscribed angle QNT.

  arc QN = 2(74°) = 148°

_____

Comment on the question and answer

Your description "on the circle between points Q and N" is ambiguous. You used the same description for both points P and R. The interpretation we used is shown in the attachment. If point P is on the long arc NQ, then the measure of arc QPN will be the difference between 148° and 360°, hence 212°. You need to choose the answer that matches the diagram you have.

__

We call angle QNT an "inscribed angle" because it is a degenerate case of an inscribed angle. The usual case has the vertex of the angle separate from the ends of the arc it intercepts. In the case of a tangent meeting a chord, the vertex is coincident with one of the ends of the intercepted arc. The relation between angle measure and arc measure remains the same: 1 : 2.

WHY CAN'T ANYONE HELP ME? Twice last​ month, Judy Carter rented a car in​ Fresno, California, and traveled around the Southwest on business. The car rental agency rents its cars for a daily​ fee, plus an additional charge per mile driven. Judy recalls that her first trip lasted 4​ days, she drove 440 ​miles, and the rental cost her ​$286. On her second business trip she drove 190 miles in 3​ days, and paid ​$165.50 for the rental. Find the daily fee and the mileage charge.

Answers

Answer:

The daily rate is $33 and the per mile rate is $0.35

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 440y = 286

3x + 190y = 165.5

We can solve this systems of equations by multiplying the second statement by [tex]-\frac{4}{3}[/tex] to try and eliminate the x variable.

4x + 440y = 286

-4x - [tex]\frac{760}{3}[/tex]y = -220[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{560}{3}[/tex] y= [tex]\frac{196}{3}[/tex]

560y = 196

y = 0.35

So, the rate per mile is 0.35. Now, with this info, let's find the daily rate by plugging it into the equation.

[tex]4x + 440\cdot0.35 = 286\\4x + 154 = 286\\4x = 132\\x = 33[/tex]

So, the daily rate is $33 and the mile rate is $0.35.

Hope this helped!

Answer:

the daily fee =33 dollars

and the mileage charge.=0.35

let d: be daily fee and m for mileage

cost of rental =(d*number of days)+ (m*number of mileage)

her first trip: 4d+440m=286

her second trip: 3d+190m=165.5

solve by addition and elimination

4d+440m=286 ⇒ multiply by 3 ⇒12d +1320m=(3)286

3d+190m=165.5⇒ multiply by 4⇒12d+190(4)m=4(165.5)

12d+1320m=858

12d+760m=662

subtract two equation to eliminate d

12d+1320m-12d-760m=858-662

560m=196

m=7/20=0.35 for on mileage

d: 4d+440m=286

4d=286-440(0.35)

d=(286-154)/4 33 dollars

Olivia, a golfer, claims that her drive distance is more than 174 meters, on average. Several of her friends do not believe her, so she decides to do a hypothesis test, at a 10% significance level, to persuade them. She hits 15 drives. The mean distance of the sample drives is 188 meters. Olivia knows from experience that the standard deviation for her drive distance is 14 meters. H0: μ=174; Ha: μ>174 α=0.1 (significance level) What is the test statistic (z-score) of this one-mean hypothesis test, rounded to two decimal places?

Answers

Answer:

3.87

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Data provided in the question

mean distance = [tex]\bar x[/tex] = 188 meters

Standard deviaton = [tex]\sigma = 14[/tex]

Hits drivers = 15

The distance = 174 meters

H_0: μ≤174;

H_a: μ>174

Based  on the above information, the test statistic z-score is

[tex]z = \frac{\bar x - \mu }{\sigma / \sqrt{n} } \\\\ = \frac{188 - 174}{\ 14 / \sqrt{15} }[/tex]

= 3.87

Hence, the test statistic is 3.87

Note:

We take the μ≤174 instead of μ=174;

Jeremy's father drives him to school in rush hour traffic in 20 minutes. One day there is no traffic, so his father can drive him 18 miles per hour faster and gets him to school in 12 minutes. How far (in miles) is it from Jeremy's home to school?

Answers

Answer:

9 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the speed that Jeremy's father drives Jeremy through traffic is x. When there is no traffic, Jeremy's father drives 18 miles per hour faster than his speed in traffic, x. This would make the speed that Jeremy's father drives Jeremy to school without traffic, 18 / 60 + x. This is as it is 18 miles per hour faster, not 18 miles per minute faster.

Now recall the formula Speed = Distance / Time, or S = D / T. We want the distance here ( How far (in miles) from Jeremy's home to school ) so let's isolate D here in this formula,

S = D / T ⇒ D = S [tex]*[/tex] T - and as you know, the distance from Jeremy's home to school is the same, with or without traffic. So, we can consider case 1 : Jeremy's " distance traveled " in traffic, and case 2 : Jeremy's " distance traveled " without traffic, and make them equal to one another.

20 [tex]*[/tex] x = 12 [tex]*[/tex] ( 18 / 60 + x ),

20x = 3.6 + 12x,

8x = 3.6,

x = 0.45 - Now the distance is 20 [tex]*[/tex] x, and hence 20 [tex]*[/tex] 0.45 = 9 miles

Researchers at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have been studying the decay pattern of a new virus with a decay rate of 22% per hour. They start with 500 viruses that they want to check on in the next 8 hours. How many viruses will they find in 8 hours? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

They will find 69 viruses in 8 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of viruses after t hours is given by the following equation:

[tex]V(t) = V(0)(1-r)^{t}[/tex]

In which V(0) is the initial number of viruses and r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

They start with 500 viruses

This means that [tex]V(0) = 500[/tex]

Decay rate of 22% per hour.

This means that [tex]r = 0.22[/tex]

So

[tex]V(t) = V(0)(1-r)^{t}[/tex]

[tex]V(t) = 500(1-0.22)^{t}[/tex]

[tex]V(t) = 500(0.78)^{t}[/tex]

How many viruses will they find in 8 hours?

This is V(8).

[tex]V(t) = 500(0.78)^{t}[/tex]

[tex]V(8) = 500(0.78)^{8}[/tex]

[tex]V(8) = 68.51[/tex]

Rounding to the nearest whole number

They will find 69 viruses in 8 hours.

Answer:

The researchers will find 86 viruses.

Step-by-step explanation:

Identify the value of each variable in the formula. Be sure to put the percent in decimal form. Be sure the units match—the rate is per hour and the time is in hours.

A =?

A0 =  500

R= -0.22/hour

t= 8 hours

Substitute the values in the formula.

A= A0e^rt

A= 500e^-0.22x8

Compute the amount.

A ≈ 86.02

Round to the nearest whole number.

A ≈ 86

PLEASE HELP ASAP!! Write a polynomial f(x) that satisfies the following conditions. Polynomial of lowest degree with zeros of -4 (multiplicity of 1), 2 (multiplicity of 3), and with f(0)=64

Answers

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we have the zeros -4 with a multiplicity of 1, zeros 2 with a multiplicity of 3, and f(0)=64.

Recall that if something is a zero, then the equation must contain (x - n), where n is that something. In other words, for a polynomial with a zero of -4 with a multiplicity of 1, then (x+4)^1 must be a factor.

Therefore, (x-2)^3 (multiplicity of 3) must also be a factor.

Lastly, f(0)=64 tells that when x=0, f(x)=64. Don't simply add 64 (like what I did, horribly wrong). Instead, to keep the zeros constant, we need to multiply like this:

In other words, we will have:

[tex]f(x)=(x+4)(x-2)^3\cdot n[/tex], where n is some value.

Let's determine n first. We know that f(0)=64, thus:

[tex]f(0)=64=4(-2)^3\cdot n[/tex]

[tex]64=-32n, n=-2[/tex]

Now, let's expand:

Expand:

[tex]f(x)=(x+4)(x^2-4x+4)(x-2)(-2)[/tex]

[tex]f(x)=(x^2+2x-8)(x^2-4x+4)(-2)[/tex]

[tex]f(x)=(x^4-4x^3+4x^2+2x^3-8x^2+8x-8x^2+32x-32)(-2)[/tex]

[tex]f(x)=-2x^4+4x^3+24x^2-80x+64[/tex]

Of the cartons produced by a​ company, 10​% have a​ puncture, 6​% have a smashed​ corner, and 0.4​% have both a puncture and a smashed corner. Find the probability that a randomly selected carton has a puncture or a smashed corner. The probability that a randomly selected carton has a puncture or a smashed corner nothing​ ____%. ​(Type an integer or a decimal. Do not​ round.)

Answer:

[tex]P(Punctured\ or\ Smashed\ Corner) = 0.156[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Puncture\ Corner = 10\%[/tex]

[tex]Smashed\ Corner = 6\%[/tex]

[tex]Punctured\ and\ Smashed\ Corner = 0.4\%[/tex]

Required

[tex]P(Punctured\ or\ Smashed\ Corner)[/tex]

For non-mutually exclusive event described above, P(Punctured or Smashed Corner) can be calculated as thus;

[tex]P(Punctured\ or\ Smashed\ Corner) = P(Punctured\ Corner) + P(Smashed\ Corner) - P(Punctured\ and\ Smashed\ Corner)[/tex]

Substitute:

10% for P(Puncture Corner),

6% for P(Smashed Corner) and

0.4% for P(Punctured and Smashed Corner)

[tex]P(Punctured\ or\ Smashed\ Corner) = 10\% + 6\% - 0.4\%[/tex]

[tex]P(Punctured\ or\ Smashed\ Corner) = 15.6\%[/tex]

Convert % to fraction

[tex]P(Punctured\ or\ Smashed\ Corner) = \frac{15.6}{100}[/tex]

Convert to decimal

[tex]P(Punctured\ or\ Smashed\ Corner) = 0.156[/tex]

Using Venn probabilities, it is found that:

The probability that a randomly selected carton has a puncture or a smashed corner is 15.6%.

In this problem, the events are:

Event A: Puncture.Event B: Smashed corner.

The "or" probability is given by:

[tex]P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)[/tex]

10% have a​ puncture, hence [tex]P(A) = 0.1[/tex]6% have a smashed​ corner, hence [tex]P(B) = 0.06[/tex].0.4% have both a puncture and a smashed corner, hence [tex]P(A \cup B) = 0.004[/tex].

Then:

[tex]P(A \cup B) = 0.1 + 0.06 - 0.004 = 0.156[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

length = 6 feetwidth = 4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w

where l is the length

w is the width

The length of the rectangle is 2 feet longer than the width is written as

l = 2 + w

Perimeter = 20feet

So we have

20 = 2( 2 + w ) + 2w

20 = 4 + 2w + 2w

4w = 16

Divide both sides by 4

w = 4

Substitute w = 4 into l = 2 + w

That's

l = 2 + 4

l = 6

length = 6 feetwidth = 4 feet

Hope this helps you

Answer:

w = 4 and L = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l+w)

p = 20

L = 2 + w

w = ?

20 = 2(2 + w + w)

20 = 2(2 + 2w)

20/2 = 2 + 2w

10 = 2 + 2w

10 - 2 = 2w

8 = 2w

w = 8/2 = 4

L = w + 2

L = 4 +2 = 6

w = 4 and L = 10

Hope this helps!

Answer: no solution

Step-by-step explanation: When lines have the same slope, the graphs of the two lines are parallel which means they never intersect.

2x+45+x=180

(2x+x)+45=180

3x+45=180

3x=180-45

3x=135

x=135/3

x=45

Let's confirm that x is 45.

(2x+45) with x=45:

(2*45+45)

(3*45)

135

So (2x+45)+x at x=45 gives us:

135+45

180

Answer has been confirmed.

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{x = 45}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

=> [tex]x+2x+45 = 180[/tex] (Angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees)

=> [tex]3x+45 = 180[/tex]

Subtracting 45 to both sides

=> 3x = 180-45

=> 3x = 135

Dividing both sides by 3

=> x = 45

explain square roots

Answers

In mathematics, a square root of a number x is a number y such that y2 = x; in other words, a number y whose square (the result of multiplying the number by itself, or y ⋅ y) is x. For example, 4 and −4 are square roots of 16 because 42 = (−4)2 = 16.

Answer:A square root of a number is a value that, when multiplied by itself, gives the number. Example: 4 × 4 = 16, so a square root of 16 is 4. Note that (−4) × (−4) = 16 too, so −4 is also a square root of 16. The symbol is √ which always means the positive square root. Example: √36 = 6 (because 6 x 6 = 36)

Suppose a car depreciates linearly the second you drive it off the lot. If you purchased the car for $31,500 and after 5 years the car is worth $20,500, find the slope of the depreciation line.

Answers

Answer: m = - 2200

Step-by-step explanation: Slope of a line is a number which describes the steepness and direction of a linear graph. It is represented by the letter m.

The year a car is bought and its price means:

f(0) = 31,500

Five years later, the price is $20,500, i.e.:

f(5) = 20,500

With these two pairs of value, slope is calculated as:

[tex]m = \frac{y-y_{0}}{x-x_{0}}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{20500-31500}{5-0}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{- 1100}{5}[/tex]

m = - 2200

The slope of the depreciation line is m = -2200 and it is negative because the line decreases along time.
