Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D: a² + ab + b²

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula used for factoring a difference in cubes is;

a³ - b³ = (a - b)(a² + ab + b²)

Thus, the factors are either;

(a - b) or (a² + ab + b²)

Looking at the given options, the only one that is a factor is (a² + ab + b²) which is option D.

Answer 2

A right triangle and two of its side lengths are shown below which one of the following measurements is the length of the hypotenuse

Answers

Answer:

20 units

Step-by-step explanation:

By applying Pythagoras theorem in the given right triangle,

(Hypotenuse)² = (leg 1)² + (leg 2)²

(Hypotenuse)² = (12)² + (16)²

Hypotenuse = [tex]\sqrt{144+256}[/tex]

                     = [tex]\sqrt{400}[/tex]

                     = 20 inches

Therefore, measure of the hypotenuse of the given right triangles is 20 inches.

Two people start biking from the same point. One heads east at 13 ​mph, the other south at 18 mph. What is the rate at which the distance between the two people is changing after 25 minutes and after 35 ​minutes? What is the rate at which the distance between the two people is changing after 25 ​minutes?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]22.21\ \text{mph}[/tex]

[tex]22.2\ \text{mph}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\dfrac{da}{dt}=13\ \text{mph}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{db}{dt}=18\ \text{mph}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dc}{dt}[/tex] = Rate at which the distance between the two people is changing

At 25 minutes

[tex]a=13\times \dfrac{25}{60}=5.417\ \text{miles}[/tex]

[tex]b=18\times \dfrac{25}{60}=7.5\ \text{miles}[/tex]

[tex]c=\sqrt{5.417^2+7.5^2}\\\Rightarrow c=9.25\ \text{miles}[/tex]

Distance between the two people is

[tex]c^2=a^2+b^2[/tex]

Differentiating with respect to time we get

[tex]c\dfrac{dc}{dt}=a\dfrac{da}{dt}+b\dfrac{db}{dt}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dc}{dt}=\dfrac{a\dfrac{da}{dt}+b\dfrac{db}{dt}}{c}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dc}{dt}=\dfrac{5.417\times 13+7.5\times 18}{9.25}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dc}{dt}=22.21\ \text{mph}[/tex]

Distance between the two people is changing at a rate of [tex]22.21\ \text{mph}[/tex].

At 35 minutes

[tex]a=13\times \dfrac{35}{60}=7.583\ \text{miles}[/tex]

[tex]b=18\times \dfrac{35}{60}=10.5\ \text{miles}[/tex]

[tex]c=\sqrt{7.583^2+10.5^2}\\\Rightarrow c=12.95\ \text{miles}[/tex]

Distance between the two people is

[tex]c^2=a^2+b^2[/tex]

Differentiating with respect to time we get

[tex]c\dfrac{dc}{dt}=a\dfrac{da}{dt}+b\dfrac{db}{dt}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dc}{dt}=\dfrac{a\dfrac{da}{dt}+b\dfrac{db}{dt}}{c}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dc}{dt}=\dfrac{7.583\times 13+10.5\times 18}{12.95}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dc}{dt}=22.2\ \text{mph}[/tex]

Distance between the two people is changing at a rate of [tex]22.2\ \text{mph}[/tex].

Cody bought two burgers and two small fries for $14. Mary bought three burgers and four small fries for $23. How much does one burger cost?

Answers

b = cost of burger
f = cost of fries

2b + 2f = 14, so
b + f = 7
We’ll solve for f in terms of b:

f = 7-b

Then substitute that in to our other equation (what Marty bought) to get a numerical value for b:

3b + 4f = 23
3b + 4(7-b) = 23
3b + 28 -4b = 23
-b = -5
b = 5

Then calculate f:

. Government Waste In a Gallup poll 513 national adults aged 18 years or older who consider themselves to be Republican were asked, "Of every tax dollar that goes to the federal government in Washington, D.C., how many cents of each dollar would you say are wasted?" The mean wasted was found to be 54 cents with a standard deviation of 2.9 cents. The same question was asked of 513 national adults aged 18 years or older who consider themselves to be Democrat. The mean wasted was found to be 41 cents with a standard deviation of 2.6 cents. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean difference in government waste, mR - mD. Interpret the interval.

Answers

Answer:

Part A

The 95% confidence interval is approximately 12.66 ≤  [tex]m_R[/tex] - [tex]m_D[/tex] ≤ 13.34

Part B

We are 95% confident that the true difference in the mean amount of waste per dollar stated by the two categories of adults is larger than zero and it is approximately between 12.66 and 13.34

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The given parameters are;

The mean amount adults that consider themselves Republican say is wasted for every dollar, [tex]m_R[/tex] = 54 cents

The standard deviation of the statistics, s₁ = 2.9 cents

The number of respondents in the group, n₁ = 513

The mean amount adults that consider themselves Democrats say is wasted for every dollar,   [tex]m_D[/tex]  = 41 cents

The standard deviation of the statistics, s₂ = 2.6 cents

The number of respondents in the group, n₂ = 513

The F-test, F = s₁²/s₂² = 2.9²/2.6² = 1.244

The critical-t, t* = 1.962

F ≤ t*, therefore, we pool the data

[tex]s_p =\sqrt{\dfrac{\left ( n_{1}-1 \right )\cdot s_{1}^{2} +\left ( n_{2}-1 \right )\cdot s_{2}^{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}-2}}[/tex]

[tex]s_p =\sqrt{\dfrac{\left ( 513-1 \right )\cdot 2.9^{2} +\left ( 513-1 \right )\cdot 2.6^{2}}{513+513-2}} = \sqrt{7.585}[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval is given by the following formula;

[tex]\left (m_R- m_D \right )\pm t^* \cdot s_p \cdot\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{n_{1}}+\dfrac{1}{n_{2}}}[/tex]

The test statistic, is given as follows;

[tex]t = \dfrac{m_R - m_D}{s_p \times\sqrt{ \dfrac{1}{n_1} + \dfrac{1}{n_2}} }[/tex]

Therefore;

[tex]t = \dfrac{54 - 41}{\sqrt{7.585} \times\sqrt{ \dfrac{1}{513} + \dfrac{1}{513}} } \approx 75.598[/tex]

Given that the test statistic, t = 75.598 > The critical-t, t* = 1.962, we reject the null hypothesis, therefore, there is significant statistical evidence to suggest that there is a difference in the mean stated by the two sets

[tex]s_p =\sqrt{\dfrac{\left ( 513-1 \right )\cdot 2.9^{2} +\left ( 513-1 \right )\cdot 2.6^{2}}{513+513-2}} = \sqrt{7.585}[/tex]

[tex]C. I. = \left (54- 41 \right )\pm 1.962 \times \sqrt{7.585} \times \sqrt{\dfrac{1}{513}+\dfrac{1}{513}}[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval, C.I. ≈ 12.66 ≤  [tex]m_R[/tex] - [tex]m_D[/tex] ≤ 13.34

Part B

From the 95% confidence interval, we are 95% confident that the true difference in the mean amount adult who consider themselves Republicans say politicians waste and the true difference in the mean amount adult who consider themselves Democrats say politicians waste is between 12.66 and 13.34

Given that there is no '0' in the range of values in the 95% confidence for the difference in mean from the two groups,  difference in the mean amount of waste per dollar observed by the two categories of adults.

In the equation 0.75s-5/8 = 44, how do you combine the like terms?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given equation, the "like terms" are the constants 5/8 and 44.

It simplifies the math if we eliminate the fractions first.  Note that 0.75 = 6/8, so now we have:

8(6/8)s - 8(5/8) = 44).

Multiplying all three terms by 8 (above) yields

8(6s) - 8(5) = 8(44), or

48s              = 8(44 + 5), or 48s = 8(49)

Dividing both sides by 48 yields s:   s = 8(49/48)

Review "like terms:"  These are terms that have at least one characteristic in common.  5/8 and 44 are like terms because they are only constants (no variables are present).  We must add 5/8 and 44.   0.75s does not have a "like term" in the given equation.

Find the lateral surface 14ft area of the 2ft cylinder. Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

616 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Lateral surface area of a cylinder can be determined by;

Lateral surface area = 2[tex]\pi[/tex]rh

where: r is its radius, and h is its height.

Given in the question that the height of the cylinder is 14 feet and of radius 2 feet, then;

Lateral surface area = 2[tex]\pi[/tex]rh

                         = 2 x [tex]\frac{22}{7}[/tex] x 2 x 14

                         = 2 x 22 x 2 x 7

                         = 616

Lateral surface area = 616 square feet

Thus, the lateral surface area of the cylinder is 616 square feet.

Suppose Salma borrows $3500 at an interest rate of 9% compounded each year.

(b) Find the amount owed at the end of 2 years.
$
?

Answers

Answer:

(a) The amount owed At the end of 1 year is $3,815

(b) The amount owed At the end of 2 years is $4,158.35

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters on the loan amount are;

The amount Salma borrows = $3,500

The interest rate at which the loan is borrowed, r = 9% compound interest annually

The assumption are that no payments are made out of the loan

(a) The formula for finding a compound interest loan amount, 'A' is given as follows;

[tex]A = P\cdot \left(1 + \dfrac{r}{n} \right)^{n\cdot t}[/tex]

Where;

A = The amount owed

P = The principal (the initial amount borrowed)

r = The interest rate = 9% = 0.09

n = The number of times the interest is paid per unit period, 't' = 1

t = The number of periods  of the loan = Number of years

At the end of 1 year, t = 1, we get;

[tex]A = 3,500 \times \left(1 + \dfrac{0.09}{1} \right)^{1 \times 1} = 3815[/tex]

The amount owed, A = $3,815 at the end of 1 year

(b) The amount owed at the end oy 2 years is found by plugging in t = 2 years into the formula for finding the amount owed by the borrower, therefore, we get;

[tex]A = 3,500 \times \left(1 + \dfrac{0.09}{1} \right)^{1 \times 2} = 4,158.35[/tex]

At the end of 2 years, the amount owed, A = $4,158.35
