What is the number?
A-4
B-6
C-7
D-8

Answers

Answer 1
Hello!

You can make an equation based on what you know

A number multiplied by 6

x * 6

Subtracted by 8

x * 6 - 8

You get 34

x * 6 - 8 = 34

Now you solve it algebraically

Add 8 to both sides

x * 6 = 42

Divide both sides by 6

x = 7

The answer is C) 7

Which of the following is not needed when making a box plot?
A - Mean
B - Minimum
C - Median
D - Third Quartile

Answers

The mean is not needed to make a box plot.

I hoped this helped!
Answer: A) Mean

You use the median as the center of the boxplot. The first and third quartiles (Q1 and Q3) make up the left and right edges of the box. The min and max are the furthest points on the left and right side of each whisker. The mean is not used at all. With outliers, the mean is skewed. If you have any outliers then its best to use the median instead.

At a particular music store, CDs are on sale at $14.00 for the first one purchased and $12.00 for each additional disc purchased. Maria spends $86.00 on CDs. How many CDs has Maria purchased?

Answers

To calculate the answer, we subtract $ 14 from the first CD to the total amount spent, which is $ 86.
 So:
 $ 86- $ 14 = 72
 The rest of the CDs cost $ 12.
 Then we divide $ 72 between $ 12
 $ 72 / $ 12 = 6.
 That means that 6 CDs were bought at $ 12 plus the first one bought at $ 14.
 So the number of CDs that María bought was 7

Simplify 2y (3-x) + 7 (x-2y)

Answers

Hi there!
Let's simplify step by step.


[tex]2y(3 - x) + 7(x - 2y) = [/tex]
First we work out the parenthesis (for instance possible by using rainbow technique).

[tex] 2y \times 3 + 2y \times - x + 7 \times x + 7 \times - 2y = \\ 6y - 2xy + 7x - 14y = [/tex]
Finally we collect the common terms.

[tex] - 2xy + 7x - 8y[/tex]
~ Hope this helps you!


The first step for solving this expression is to distribute 2y through the first parenthesis.
6y - 2xy + 7(x - 2y) 
Now distribute 7 through the second set of parenthesis.
6y - 2xy + 7x - 14y
Lastly,, collect the like terms with y.
-8y - 2xy + 7x
Since we cannot simplify any further,, -8y - 2xy + 7x is the correct answer to your question.

Solve the problem. 13) from the edge of a 1000-foot cliff, the angles of depression to two cars in the valley below are 21° and 28°. how far apart are the cars? round your answers to the nearest 0.1 ft.

Answers

the cars would be 724.4 feet apart!!
Final answer:

The problem is about finding the distance between the cars using the angles of depression and the height of the cliff. Calculate individual horizontal distances first and then find their difference which gives us the distance between the cars.

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using trigonometry. We've a 1000-foot cliff and a valley below where the two cars are located. From the edge of the cliff, if we draw two lines of sight to the cars, we can get two right triangles. The angles of depression to the cars are 21° and 28°, which are the angles between these lines of sight and a horizontal line.

We can use the tangent of these angles, which is the ratio of the opposite side (the vertical distance from the cliff to the cars) and the adjacent side (the horizontal distance from the cliff baseline to the cars). We know the vertical distance - it's 1000 ft (height of the cliff). So, we can calculate the horizontal distances (D1 and D2) to the cars as D1 = 1000/tan(21°) and D2 = 1000/tan(28°) respectively.

The difference between D1 and D2 will give the distance between the cars.

The calculations might give the distance in decimals, and the problem asks to round the answer to the nearest 0.1 ft.

Correct answer is A.

Answer:

First graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function,

[tex]g(x)=\sqrt{x-1}+1[/tex]

∵ The point from which the graph of the function passes through will be satisfy the function,

In the first graph,

Graph is passing through (1, 1), (5, 3) and (10, 4),

[tex]1=\sqrt{1-1}+1[/tex]

[tex]3=\sqrt{5-1}+1[/tex]

[tex]4=\sqrt{10-1}+1[/tex]

So, all points (1, 1), (5, 3) and (10, 4) satisfy the function,

In the second graph,

Graph is passing through (-1, -1), (3,1) and (8,2),

Since,

[tex]-1\neq \sqrt{-1-1}+1[/tex]

So, all points of graph 2 do not satisfy the function,

In the third graph,

Graph is passing through (1, -1), (5, 1) and (10, 2),

[tex]-1\neq \sqrt{1-1}+1[/tex]

So, all points of graph 3 do not satisfy the function,

In the fourth graph,

Graph is passing through (-1, 1), (3, 3) and (8, 4),

[tex]1\neq \sqrt{-1-1}+1[/tex]

So, all points of graph 4 do not satisfy the function

Which equation could be used to calculate the sum of the geometric series? 1/4+2/9+4/27+8/81+16/243?

Answers

From the given sequence:
1/4, 2/9, 4,27, 8/81, 16/243
the common ratio is: 2/3
thus the sum of the series will be given by the formula:
Sn=[a(1-r^n)]/(1-r)
plugging the values we obtain:

Sn=[1/4(1-(2/3)^n)]/(1-2/3)
thus the equation that will be used to find the sum is:
Sn=3[1/4-1/4(2/3)^n]
=3/4[1-(2/3)^n]

Answer:  Sum of the geometric series will be [tex]\frac{763}{972}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

[tex]\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{9}+\frac{4}{27}+\frac{8}{81}+\frac{16}{243}[/tex]

Here,

[tex]a=\frac{2}{9}\\\\r=\frac{a_2}{a_1}\\\\r=\frac{\frac{4}{27}}{\frac{2}{9}}=\frac{4}{27}\times \frac{9}{2}=\frac{2}{3}\\\\n=4[/tex]

As we know the formula for "Sum of n terms in geometric series ":

[tex]S_n=\frac{a(1-r^n)}{1-r}\\S_n=\frac{\frac{2}{9}(1-\frac{2}{3}^4)}{1-\frac{2}{3}}\\S_n=\frac{130}{243}[/tex]

So, Complete sum  will be

[tex]\frac{130}{243}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{520+243}{972}=\frac{763}{972}[/tex]

Hence, Sum of the geometric series will be [tex]\frac{763}{972}[/tex]

If you were to add the length of all the 3/8 pieces which are 4 (number of pieces) what would be the total length

Answers

To find the total length of four 3/8-inch pieces, you multiply the length of one piece (3/8 inch) by the number of pieces (4), which equals 1.5 inches.

To calculate the total length of all the 3/8-inch pieces, we multiply the length of one piece by the number of pieces, which is 4. The mathematical expression for this is:

Total length = length of one piece x number of pieces

Total length = 3/8 x 4

To perform the multiplication, multiply the numerators and then the denominators:

Total length = (3 x 4)/(8 x1)

Total length = 12/8 inches

Now, simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common divisor, which is 4:

Total length = (12/4)/(8/4)

Total length = 3/2 inches

And since 3/2 inches is equal to 1.5 inches, the total length of all four pieces is 1.5 inches.

The half-life of a radioactive isotope is the time it takes for a quantity of the isotope to be reduced to half its initial mass. Starting with 115 grams of a radioactive isotope, how much will be left after 3 half-lives? Use the calculator provided and round your answer to the nearest gram.

Answers

1st half-life: 115/2 = 57.5 grams
2nd half-life: 57.5/2 = 28.75 grams
3rd half-life: 28.75/2 = 14.375 grams = 14 grams

After 3 half-lives, approximately 14 grams of the radioactive isotope will be left.

We have,

To calculate the remaining mass of a radioactive isotope after a certain number of half-lives, we can use the formula:

Remaining Mass = Initial Mass * (1/2)^(Number of Half-Lives)

Given:

Initial Mass = 115 grams

Number of Half-Lives = 3

Substituting the values into the formula, we get:

Remaining Mass = 115 * (1/2)^3

Calculating this expression:

Remaining Mass = 115 * (1/2)³

Remaining Mass = 115 * (1/8)

Remaining Mass = 14.375

Rounding to the nearest gram, the remaining mass is approximately 14 grams.

Therefore,

After 3 half-lives, approximately 14 grams of the radioactive isotope will be left.

The domain of {(x, y): y = 2x² + 1 is

Answers

Answer:
Domain: (- ∞, ∞)

Explanation:
The equation y = 2x² + 1 is a somewhat narrow parabola translate up 1 unit on the y-axis from the origin (0, 0). The domain of a graph indicates which x-values the diagram can potentially reach, or how far it can travels on the x-axis.

Because it is a parabola, it goes infinitely in both directions of the x-axis. Therefore, its domain is (-∞ ,∞)

Final answer:

The domain of the function y = 2x² + 1 is all real numbers, which is expressed as [tex]\( (-\infty, +\infty) \)[/tex]

Explanation:

The domain of a function refers to the set of all possible input values for which the function is defined. In the case of the function [tex]\( y = 2x^2 + 1 \)[/tex], it is a quadratic function, meaning it is defined for all real numbers [tex]\( x \).[/tex]

The function[tex]\( y = 2x^2 + 1 \)[/tex] involves squaring [tex]\( x \)[/tex], which can result in any real number. Since there are no restrictions on the values that[tex]\( x \)[/tex] can take, the domain of this function is all real numbers. Mathematically, we denote this domain as[tex]\( (-\infty, +\infty) \)[/tex].

This implies that for any real number you substitute in for [tex]\( x \)[/tex], the function [tex]\( y = 2x^2 + 1 \)[/tex] will produce a corresponding real number for [tex]\( y \).[/tex] There are no values of [tex]\( x \)[/tex] for which the function becomes undefined or non-existent.

Graphically, this function represents a parabola that opens upwards, covering all real values of [tex]\( x \)[/tex] along the x-axis. Therefore, the domain encompasses the entire real number line without any gaps or exclusions.

A certain website averages 4.9 hours of downtime per month with a standard deviation of 0.5 hours. In April, it had 3.5 hours of downtime. What z-score does the 4.5 correspond to?

Answers

The z-score of an observation is a convenient way to compare different distributions to each other. The z-score is defined mathematically as [tex] \frac{x-m}{s} [/tex] where m is the mean and s is the standard deviation. Intuitively, this means that we account for how far off the center of the distribution this observation is, while simultaneously taking into account the spread of the distribution. Substituting x=3.5, m=4.9 and s=0.5, we get that z=-2.8. Negative z-scores imply observations below the mean.

The answer is A. I am doing Pearson Connexus and had this same question. It showed A was the correct answer to this question.

We have been given that a ship is sailing through the water in the English Channel with a velocity of 22 knots along a bearing of 157°.

Further we have been given that current has a velocity of 5 knots along a bearing of 213°.

Therefore, angle between the direction of ship and direction of current will be

[tex]\theta = 213 - 157 = 56^{0}[/tex]

We can find the magnitude of resultant by using parallelogram law of vectors.

[tex]R=\sqrt{P^{2}+Q^{2}+2PQcos(\theta)}[/tex]

Upon substituting [tex]P=22, Q = 5 \text{ and }\theta = 56[/tex] in this formula, we get

[tex]R=\sqrt{22^{2}+5^{2}+2\cdot 22\cdot 5cos(56)}\\ R=\sqrt{484+25+220\cdot0.55919}\\ R=\sqrt{632.0224}\\ R=25.14 \text{ knots}[/tex]

Therefore, resultant velocity of the ship is 25.14 knots.

We find the angle of resultant from P, that direction of ship using the formula

[tex]\alpha = arctan(\frac{Qsin(\theta)}{P+Qcos(\theta)})[/tex]

Upon substituting the values, we get

[tex]\alpha = arctan(\frac{5sin(56)}{22+5cos(56)})\\ \alpha = arctan(\frac{4.14518}{24.79596})\\ \alpha = arctan(0.16717)\\ \alpha = 9.49^{0}[/tex]

Therefore, bearing of the resultant is [tex]157+9.49 = 166.49^{0}[/tex]

Hence, option (A) is the correct choice!

A fountain on a lake sprays water in a parabolic arch modeled by the equation y = -0.3x2 + 3x. A beam of light modeled by the equation -2x + 5.5y = 19.5 passes through the fountain to create a rainbow effect. If the beam cuts the water spray at points A and B, such that point B is at a higher level than point A, what distance from the ground level is point A?

Answers

See the attached figure.

Water model ⇒⇒⇒ y = -0.3 x² + 3x        ( blue graph )
Light model   ⇒⇒⇒ -2x + 5.5 y = 19.5    ( red graph )
The intersection between the two models A and B
A = ( 1.657 , 4.148 )
B = ( 7.13 , 6.138 )

B is at a higher level than point A

The distance from the ground level to point A = y-coordinate of point A
                                                                        = 4.148






If f is a function such that f(b)-f(a)/b-a=2, then which of the following statements must be true?

Answers

Based on the type of equation, f(b) relates to y2, f(a) relates to y1, b relates to x2, and a relates to x1.  If we change those around we now get:
(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) which is the slope formula, or the average rate of change.  thus your answer would be C

In 2010, a city's population was 1,405,233 and it was decreasing at a rate of 1.1%. At this rate when will the city's population fall below 1,200,000?
a. 2024
b. 2027
c. 2036
d. 2049

Answers

Population in 2010, P(o) = 1,405,233
Rate of decrease, R = 1.1% = 0.011

Applicable formula

P(n) = P(o) *(1-R)^n

Where P(n) = population after n years, n = Number of years
From information given,
1,200,000 = 1,405,233 (1-0.011)^6
1,200,000/1,405,233 = (0.989)^n
0.85395 = (0.989)^n
ln (0.85395) = n ln (0.898)
n = [ln (0.85395)]/[ln (0.989)] = 14.27 years ≈ 14 years
Year in which population will fall below 1,200,000 = 2010+14 = 2024

Then, the correct answer is a.

I can think of no one objection, that will possibly be raised against this proposal, unless it should be urged, that the number of people will be thereby much lessened in the kingdom. This I freely own, and 'twas indeed one principal design in offering it to the world. I desire the reader will observe, that I calculate my remedy for this one individual Kingdom of Ireland, and for no other that ever was, is, or, I think, ever can be upon Earth. Therefore let no man talk to me of other expedients: Of taxing our absentees at five shillings a pound: Of using neither cloaths, nor houshold furniture, except what is of our own growth and manufacture: Of utterly rejecting the materials and instruments that promote foreign luxury: Of curing the expensiveness of pride, vanity, idleness, and gaming in our women: Of introducing a vein of parsimony, prudence and temperance: Of learning to love our country, wherein we differ even from Laplanders, and the inhabitants of Topinamboo: Of quitting our animosities and factions, nor acting any longer like the Jews, who were murdering one another at the very moment their city was taken: Of being a little cautious not to sell our country and consciences for nothing: Of teaching landlords to have at least one degree of mercy towards their tenants. Lastly, of putting a spirit of honesty, industry, and skill into our shop-keepers, who, if a resolution could now be taken to buy only our native goods, would immediately unite to cheat and exact upon us in the price, the measure, and the goodness, nor could ever yet be brought to make one fair proposal of just dealing, though often and earnestly invited to it.
