According to an informal poll in Glenview 1/3
of the men and 2/3 of the women said they
would vote for John Smith. On election day,
one and a half times as many men as women
voted. What fraction of the total vote,
according to the poll, should be cast for John
Smith?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Percent form: 41.65%

Fraction form: [tex]\frac{833}{2000}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

33% of men support John Smith.

67% of women support John Smith.

Lets say, for instance, that there are 20 polled individuals -- 10 women and 10 men.

However, since 1.5 times as many men voted as women, we have to apply our poll to 15 men and 5 women.

33% of the 15 men makes 5 men who voted for Smith and 10 who did not.

67% of the 5 women makes 3.33 women who voted for Smith and 1.67 who did not.

Add these numbers together.

8.33 total voters were cast for John Smith, while 11.67 were not.

Now, divide 8.33 by 20 and multiply by 100 to obtain a percentage.

[tex]\frac{8.33}{20} \\.4165\\41.65[/tex]

41.65% of voters voted for John Smith according to the results of the poll.

Answer 2

According to an informal poll, with 1/3 of men and 2/3 of women supporting John Smith, and 1.5 times more men than women voting, 2/3 of the total vote should be cast for John Smith.

We need to calculate the fraction of the total vote that would be cast for John Smith according to the informal poll. Let's denote the number of women voters as w and the number of men as m. According to the poll, 1/3 of men and 2/3 of women will vote for John Smith. On election day, 1.5 times as many men as women voted, which means m = 1.5w.

The total votes for John Smith would be (1/3)m + (2/3)w. Substituting m with 1.5w, we get:

Total votes for John Smith = (1/3)(1.5w) + (2/3)w

This simplifies to:

Total votes for John Smith = 0.5w + (2/3)w = (1.5/3)w + (2/3)w = (1.5/3 + 2/3)w = (3/3 + 2/3)w = (5/3)w

The total votes cast would be m + w, substituting again we get 1.5w + w = 2.5w.

To find the fraction of total votes that would be for John Smith, we divide the total votes for John Smith by the total votes cast:

Fraction for John Smith = (5/3)w / (2.5)w

Since w is in both the numerator and denominator, it cancels out, and we're left with:

Fraction for John Smith = (5/3) / (2.5)

Converting 2.5 to a fraction gives us 5/2, so:

Fraction for John Smith = (5/3) / (5/2)

By dividing fractions, we invert and multiply:

Fraction for John Smith = (5/3) * (2/5) = 2/3

Therefore, according to the poll, 2/3 of the total vote should be cast for John Smith.

A right triangle in which one acute angle is a reference angle for a 115 degree angle in standard position intersects the unit circle at (-0.423, 0.906). What is the approximate value of cos 115 degree?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\cos (115\degree)=-0.423[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The parametric equations of a circle is

[tex]x=r\cos \theta[/tex] and [tex]y=r\sin \theta[/tex]

The radius of the unit circle is 1 unit.

This implies that any point on the unit circle is represented by:

[tex]x=\cos \theta[/tex] and [tex]y=\sin \theta[/tex]

where [tex]\theta[/tex] is the angle in standard position,

From the question, the given angle in standard position is [tex]115\degree[/tex].

This angle intersects the unit circle at [tex]x=-0.423[/tex]

But [tex]x=\cos \theta[/tex]

We substitute [tex]\theta=115\degree[/tex] and [tex]x=-0.423[/tex]

This implies that: [tex]\cos (115\degree)=-0.423[/tex]

Find the coordinates of P so that P partitions the segment AB in the ratio 1:1 if
A(13,1) and B(−5,−3)?
.

Answers

Answer:

P(4, - 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio 1 : 1 represents the midpoint of segment AB

Using the midpoint formula

[ 0.5(x₁ + x₂ ), 0.5(y₁ + y₂ ) ]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (13, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 5, - 3), so

P = [0.5(13 - 5), 0.5(1 - 3) ] = [0.5(8), 0.5(- 2) ] = (4, - 1 )

the midpoint P has the coordinates (4, −1).

To find the coordinates of point P that partitions segment AB in a 1:1 ratio, also known as the midpoint, we use the midpoint formula. Given the coordinates A(13,1) and B(−5,−3), the midpoint formula is ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2).

Applying the values from A and B:

For x-coordinate: (13 − 5) / 2 = 8 / 2 = 4For y-coordinate: (1 − 3) / 2 = −2 / 2 = −1

Therefore, the midpoint P has the coordinates (4, −1).

Choose the equation that represents a line that passes through points (−1, 2) and (3, 1). A)4x − y = −6 B)x + 4y = 7 C)x − 4y = −9 D)4x + y = 2

Answers

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

I think I'm going to go with the plug in method here.

If you get the same value on both sides, then the point is contained on the line.

A)

4x-y=-6

Test (-1,2):  4(-1)-2=-6

4(-1)-2=-6

-4-2=-6

-6=-6

True; the equation holds for (-1,2).

Test (3,1): 4(3)-1=-6

4(3)-1=-6

12-1=-6

11=-6

False; the equation doesn't hold for (3,1).

A isn't the right choice.

B)

x+4y=7

Test (-1,2): -1+4(2)=7

-1+4(2)=7

-1+8=7

7=7

True, the equation holds for (-1,2).

Test (3,1): 3+4(1)=7

3+4(1)=7

3+4=7

7=7

True, the equation holds for (3,1).

Since the equation held for both (-1,2) and (3,1) then B is the right answer.

-------------------Let's also go ahead and find the equation another way:

(3,1) and (1,-2) are points on your line.

I'm going to write an equation for these points in slope-intercept form first which is y=mx+b where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

I will then rearrange into standard form like your choices are in.

m=slope=rise/run.

To find this, I like to line up the points and subtract and then put 2nd difference over 1st difference.

Like so:

(-1,2)

-(3,1)

---------

-4    1

The slope is 1/-4 or -1/4.

So the equation so far is y=-1/4 x+b since m=-1/4.

Now to find b, I'm going to use y=-1/4 x +b along with one of the given points on the line like (x,y)=(-1,2).

y=-1/4 x+b

2=-1/4 (-1)+b

2=1/4+b

Subtract 1/4 on both sides:

2-1/4=b

7/4=b

So the equation of the line is y=-1/4 x +7/4.

Now the goal is to write in ax+by=c form where a,b,c are integers.

Multiply both sides of y= -1/4 x +7/4 by 4 giving you:

4y=-1x+7

Add 1x on both sides:

1x+4y=7

or

x+4y=7 since 1x=x

So x+4y=7 is the answer if you prefer this way. Well anyway you prefer, this is the correct standard form for this line.

The equation of line that passes through points (-1, 2) and (3, 1) will be

x + 4y = 7

Option B is true.

What is Equation of line?

The equation of line with slope m and y intercept at point b is given as;

y = mx + b

Given that;

The points on the line are  (-1, 2) and (3, 1).

Since, The equation of line will be;

y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)

Where, m = (y₂ - y₁)/ (x₂ - x₁) is slope of the line.

And, (x₁, y₁) is the point on the line.

Thus, Slope = (1 - 2) / (3 - (-1))

                  = (-1)/4

                  = -1/4

So, The equation of line with slope -1/4 and point (-1, 2) will be;

y - 2 = -1/4 (x - (-1))

4 (y - 2) = - 1(x + 1)

4y - 8 = -x - 1

x + 4y = 8 - 1

x + 4y = 7

So, The equation of line that passes through points (-1, 2) and (3, 1) will be

x + 4y = 7

The population is decreasing by 3%  each year,

Thus, the population after t years would be,

[tex]P=P_0 (1-\frac{3}{100})^t[/tex]

[tex]\implies P=P_0(1+\frac{-3}{100})^t[/tex]

Subtract 25 from each side

135.75-25 = 25-25 + 8.25w

110.75 = 8.25w

Divide each side by 8.25

110.75/8.25 = 8.25w/8.25

13.42424 = w

When the polynomial in P(x) is divided by (x + a), the remainder equals P(a)

Answers

Answer:

This is a false statement:

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Remainder Theorem dividing the polynomial by some linear factor x + a, where a is just some number. As a result of the long polynomial division, you end up with some polynomial answer q(x) (the "q" standing for "the quotient polynomial") and some polynomial remainder r(x).

P(x)= (x+/-a) q(x)+r(x)

P(x)=(x+a) q(x)+r(x). Note that for x=-a

P(-a)=(-a+a) q(-a)+r(-a)= 0* q(-a)+ r(-a)

P(-a)=r(-a)

It means that P(-a) is the remainder not P(a)

From the figure, we note that

A chord is bisected by the radius of the circle that makes a right-angled triangle with hypotenuse measuring 16.1 units and the other two sides measures x units and 7.1 units.

Using Pythagoras theorem, we get

[tex]x^2+7.1^2=16.1^2\\\\\Rightarrow x^2+50.41=259.21\\\\\Rightarrow x^2=259.21-50.41\\\\\Rightarrow x^2=208.8\\\\\Rightarrow x=\pm\sqrt{208.8}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\pm14.45.[/tex]

Since x is the length of side of a triangle, so we get

x = 14.45.

Thus, the length of the indicated segment is 14.45 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cosine function is one of the trigonometric functions. Cosine function is regarded as an even function, which means that f(-x) = f(x). Also, cosine function is positive in the first quadrant and the last quadrant and negative in the second quadrant and the third quadrant. 155° lies in the second quadrant since 155° is smaller than 180°. Therefore, the basic angle or the reference angle of 155° is 180° - 155° = 25°. We know that cos 155° will be negative because it lies in the second quadrant and cos 25° will be positive because it lies in the first quadrant. Since cos 55° is positive, and cos (-25°) = cos 25° by the even function property, therefore option 2 and option 3 are incorrect since cos 155° is negative.

a rectangular field has an area of 1,764m^2. the width of the field is 13m more then the length. what is the perimeter of the field?

Answers

Answer:

170 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle is width times length:

A = WL

Given:

A = 1764

W = L + 13

Substitute:

1764 = (L + 13) L

1764 = L² + 13L

0 = L² + 13L − 1764

0 = (L + 49) (L − 36)

L + 49 = 0, L − 36 = 0

L = -49, L = 36

Since length can't be negative, L = 36 m.

So the width is W = L + 13 = 49 m.

Perimeter of a rectangle is twice the width plus twice the length.

P = 2W + 2L

P = 2(49) + 2(36)

P = 170 m

The perimeter is 170 meters.

Scientists released 10 birds into a new habitat in year 0. Each year, there were
three times as many birds as the year before. How many birds were there
after x years? Write a function to represent this scenario.

Answers

Final answer:

To model the bird population that triples each year starting with 10 birds, an exponential growth function is used: f(x) = 10 × 3^x, where x is the number of years.

Explanation:

To create a function that represents the scenario of birds increasing threefold each year, we need to use an exponential growth model.

The initial population of birds is 10 and then it triples every year.

Therefore, the function that describes the number of birds after x years would be:

f(x) = 10 × 3^x

Here, f(x) represents the number of birds after x years, 10 is the initial number of birds released into the habitat, and 3^x indicates that the population is growing three times each year for x years.

Final answer:

The number of birds after x years can be calculated using the exponential function B(x) = 10 × 3^x, representing the initial population of 10 birds tripling every year.

Explanation:

The scenario describes a population of birds in a new habitat growing exponentially each year. The initial population of birds is 10 (in year 0), and the population triples every year thereafter. To represent this situation mathematically, we can use an exponential function.

To find the number of birds after x years, we can use the following function:

B(x) = 10 × 3^x

Where:

B(x) is the number of birds after x years

10 is the initial number of birds

3 is the growth factor, as the population is tripling each year

x is the number of years since the birds were first released into the habitat

This equation models exponential growth and gives us the predicted population of the birds for any given year x.

For a relation to be a function there should be no repition in domain or input of the function i.e. every element in domain should be unique.

The domain for given relation is:

{1,-1,3,5}

All the inputs are only once mapped to the output so this relation is a function ..

Which equation represents the line that passes through (–6, 7) and (–3, 6)?

y = –x + 9
y = –x + 5
y = –3x – 11y
y = –3x + 25

Answers

Answer:

The equation that represents the line that passes through (-6,7) and (-3,6) is: y = -1/3x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of line for point=slope form is

y-y₁ = m(x-x₁)

Finding Slope m:

m= y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁

here y₂= 6,y₁= 7,x₂= -3,x₁= -6

m = 6-7/-3-(-6)

m = -1/-3+6

m = -1/3

The slope m = -1/3 and considering point (-6,7) the equation is:

y-y₁ = m(x-x₁)

y-7 = (-1/3)(x-(-6))

y-7 = -1/3(x+6)

y-7 = -1/3x -2

y = -1/3x-2+7

y = -1/3x + 5

So, the equation that represents the line that passes through (-6,7) and (-3,6) is: y = -1/3x + 5

How do I solve two step equations?

1. 3x+5=-16

Answers

Answer:

x = - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3x + 5 = - 16 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

3x = - 21 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = - 7

Two-step equations can get more difficult the higher the numbers get, but they're not too hard! ;)

To solve 3x+5=-16:

First subtract 5 from each side

Now its 3x=-21

Next divide 3 from each side

You get x=-7!

Always check your work! To check your work plug your answer "-7" into x.

So it looks like this: 3(-7)+5=-16 then distribute and solve!

You'll get -16=-16, that means its correct/true!

[tex]1 \frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Fractional division is fractional multiplication with the second fraction the reciprocal of itself. This means the problem can be written as [tex]\frac{7}{9}*\frac{9}{4}[/tex]. Fractional multiplication results in the multiplication of the numerators and denominators---in this case, [tex]\frac{7}{4}=1\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Answer:

Option B) a = 1, b = 3, c = 4  

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

We are given an expression:

[tex]\displaystyle\frac{7}{9} \div \frac{4}{9} = a\frac{b}{c}[/tex]

The solving of the above expression can be done in the following manner:

[tex]\displaystyle\frac{7}{9} \div \frac{4}{9}\\\\\frac{7}{9}\times \frac{9}{4}\\\\\frac{7}{4} =\frac{(4\times 1) + 3}{4}= 1\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Comparing the right side of the expression, we have,

[tex]a\displaystyle\frac{b}{c} = 1\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Comparing, we get,

a = 1, b = 3, c = 4

Option B) s the correct option.

help me i need this please

Answers

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

P(something not happening)+P(something happening)=1 or 100%.

So if we have

P(something not happening)+40%=100%

Then the P(something not happening)=60% since 60%+40%=100%.

Yes I was using the event="something not happening" as the complement of something happening.

In fancy notation, some people might write:

[tex]P(A)+P(A')=1[/tex]

or

[tex]P(A)+P(A^c)=1[/tex]
