Calculate the arc length of GH in terms of pi.

Answer:

810.58 dollars per year

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so we are given that P=5000, so that makes our function A(t)=5000(1.06)^t .

The average rate of change is really the slope of the line going through (15,y1) and (20,y2).

We can find the corresponding y values by plugging the x's there to A(t)=5000(1.06)^t.

So let's do that:

y1=A(15)=5000(1.06)^(15)=11982.79097

y2=A(20)=5000(1.06)^(20)=16035.67736

Now the slope of a line can be found by using the formula:

(y2-y1)/(x2_x1) or just lining up the points and subtracting vertically and remember y difference goes over x difference.

Like so:

 ( 15  , 11982.79097 )

- ( 20 , 16035.67736)

---------------------------------

 -5          -4052.886391

So the average rate of change is whatever -4052.886391 divided by -5 is.....

which is approximately 810.58 dollars per year.

Answer:

The average rate of change in dollars per year between years 15 and 20 is:

[tex]m=\$810[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First we calculate the profit of the investment for the year 15

So

[tex]P=5000\\t=15[/tex]

[tex]A(15)=5000(1.06)^{15}[/tex]

[tex]A(15)=11982.79[/tex]

Now we calculate the profit of the investment for the year 20

So

[tex]P=5000\\t=20[/tex]

[tex]A(20)=5000(1.06)^{20}[/tex]

[tex]A(20)=16035.68[/tex]

Now the average rate of change m is defined as:

[tex]m=\frac{A(20) - A(15)}{20-15}[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]m=\frac{16035.68-11982.79}{20-15}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{4052.89}{5}[/tex]

[tex]m=\$810.58[/tex]

For this case we have that the equation of a line of the point-slope form is given by:

[tex](y-y_ {0}) = m (x-x_ {0})[/tex]

To find the slope we look for two points through which the line passes:

We have to:

[tex](x1, y1) :( 0,2)\\(x2, y2) :( 4, -2)[/tex]

Thus, the slope is:

[tex]m = \frac {y2-y1} {x2-x1} = \frac {-2-2} {4-0} = \frac {-4} {4} = - 1[/tex]

Substituting a point in the equation we have:

[tex](y - (- 2)) = - 1 (x-4)\\y + 2 = - (x-4)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

$11.55 per hour.

$1074.15 in two weeks.

1074.25 ÷ 11.55 = 93.

Answer:

93 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question states that $1074.15 has been earned in a two weeks time (in 14 days total). The hourly wage rate is $11.55. To calculate the total number of hours worked in the two week time, following formula will be used:

Number of hours worked = Total income / Hourly wage rate.

Number of hours worked = 1074.15/11.55 = 93 hours.

Therefore, 93 hours have been worked in 2 weeks to earn the total money of $1074.15!!!

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given x is a number that is 7 more than y.

This means when you add 7 to y you get x.

So the equation for this is 7+y=x.

We want x as a function of y. So we want to replace x with f(y).

This means we have the function 7+y=f(y) or f(y)=7+y by symmetric property of equality.

Your answer is B.

Answer:

the answer is  x = f(y) = 7 + y

Answer:

3(x + 5)(x+ 5)  

Step-by-step explanation:

3x² + 30x + 75

Here's one way to do it.

Step 1. Factor out the highest common factor of all three terms.

You can factor out a 3.

3(x² +10x +25) = 0

Step 2. Factor the remaining polynomial

We must find two numbers whose product is 25 and whose sum is 10.

A little trial-and-error gives us 5 and 5.  

5 × 5 = 25; 5 + 5 = 10

We can factor the expression as

3(x + 5)(x + 5)

To factorize a polynomial implies that, we want to get several algebraic expressions from the polynomial.

When [tex]3x^2 +30x + 75[/tex] is factored, the result is: [tex]3(x + 5)(x + 5)[/tex]

Given

[tex]3x^2 +30x + 75[/tex]

Factor out 3

[tex]3x^2 +30x + 75 = 3 \times (x^2 + 10x + 25)[/tex]

Expand the bracket

[tex]3x^2 +30x + 75 = 3 \times (x^2 + 5x + 5x + 25)[/tex]

Factorize

[tex]3x^2 +30x + 75 = 3 \times (x(x + 5) + 5(x + 5))[/tex]

Factor out x + 5

[tex]3x^2 +30x + 75 = 3 \times ((x + 5)(x + 5))[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]3x^2 +30x + 75 = 3(x + 5)(x + 5)[/tex]

Hence, the factors of [tex]3x^2 +30x + 75[/tex] are 3 and (x + 5)

In the context of this problem, the domain refers to the possible values for time, from when Vanessa kicked the soccer ball until when it landed again. We know from the problem that the ball was in the air for 4 seconds. Therefore, the domain consists of all real numbers from 0 to 4 (both inclusive). Since time cannot be negative in this context, we start the domain at 0, and end at 4 because that's when the ball hit the ground again. Also, time, which is a continuous quantity, can take any value within this period, therefore it's the set of all real numbers between 0 and 4.

The domain of the function, which represents the soccer ball's flight, is the time interval it was in the air. Therefore, the domain is from 0 to 4 seconds, written as [0,4].

In the problem, Vanessa kicked a soccer ball and it was in the air for 4 seconds before hitting the ground. In this scenario, the height of the soccer ball is considered to be a function of time. As such, the domain of the function, which represents all possible input values for the function, would be the amount of time the ball is in the air. Therefore, the domain for this function would be the interval from 0 to 4 seconds, often written as [0,4].

It's important to understand that in situations involving time, the domain value cannot be negative, as negative time values have no physical meaning. Therefore, the lower limit of the domain is 0, when Vanessa initially kicked the ball. The upper limit is the time the soccer ball spent in the air, or 4 seconds.

Answer:

-21 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

3x – 10 = 5x + 32

Subtract 3x from each side

3x-3x – 10 = 5x-3x + 32

-10 =2x +32

Subtract 32 from each side

-10 -32 = 2x+32-32

-42 = 2x

Divide each side by 2

-42/2 = 2x/2

-21 =x

Answer: [tex]x=-21[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation you need to find the value of "x".

First, you need to subtract 32 from both sides of the equation:

[tex]3x - 10 -32= 5x + 32-32\\\\3x - 42= 5x[/tex]

 Now you must subtract [tex]3x[/tex] from both sides of the equation:

[tex]3x - 42-3x= 5x-3x\\\\- 42= 2x[/tex]

And finally divide both sides of the equation by 2. Then:

[tex]\frac{-42}{2}=\frac{2x}{2}\\\\x=-21[/tex]

Answer:

There are 80 marks in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of total marks be [tex]x[/tex].

The percentage score of the student can be written as the ratio

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{68}{x} = 85\%[/tex].

However,

[tex]\displaystyle 85\% = \frac{85}{100}[/tex].

Equating the two:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{68}{x} = \frac{85}{100}[/tex].

Cross-multiply (that is: multiple both sides by [tex]100x[/tex], the product of the two denominators) to get

[tex]85x = 68\times 100[/tex].

[tex]\displaystyle x = \frac{68\times 100}{85} = 80[/tex].

In other words, there are 80 marks in total.

Answer:

y-22=14(x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are looking for a line parallel to y=14x-3 then we are looking for a line that has the same slope as y=14x-3.

The slope of y=14x-3 is 14.

So the slope of our line is 14.

So we know our equation is in the form y=14x+b.

We can find b by using a point (x,y) on the line. We know (x,y)=(1,22) is a point on the line we are looking for.

So I'm going to replace x with 1 and y with 22 in the equation y=14x+b giving me

22=14(1)+b

22=14   +b  

Subtract 14 on both sides

8=b

The equation of the line is y=14x+8. That is slope-intercept form.  I will leave this here just in case you are curious of this.

I was do point-slope form now since that is what your question says.

We know the slope is 14 so m=14.

The point-slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1).

We know (x1,y1)=(1,22) so now we substitute.

y-22=14(x-1)

Answer:

The conjecture is that the sum is [tex]30^2+30=930[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't see your table... but let's see if we can make a conjecture about the sum of the first 30 positive even numbers.

What is the sum of the first even number? 2=2

What is the sum of the first two even numbers? 2+4=6

What is the sum of the first three even numbers? 2+4+6=12

What is the sum of the first four even numbers? 2+4+6+8=20

What is the sum of the first five even numbers? 2+4+6+8+10=30

What is the sum of the first six even numbers? 2+4+6+8+10+12=42

Alright, let's stop there for a second.

So we have the following sequence of numbers to find a pattern for:

2,6,12,20,30,42,...

Let's look at the common differences:

6-2 ,  12-6 , 20-12 , 30-20, 42-30,...

 4  ,    6     ,  8      ,   10     , 12

No common difference here so let's move on too the second common differences:

6-4  ,  8-6,   10-8,   12-10

 2   ,    2  ,     2  ,     2

So there is a 2nd common difference which means the pattern is a quadratic.

So our expression is of the form [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex]

Let's plug in our numbers to come up with a system to solve:

If x=1 , then [tex]ax^2+bx+c=2[/tex]

That is, [tex]a(1)^2+b(1)+c=2[/tex] .

Simplifying this gives: [tex]a+b+c=2[/tex].

If x=2, then [tex]ax^2+bx+c=6[/tex]

That is, [tex]a(2)^2+b(2)+c=6[/tex]

Simplifying this gives: [tex]4a+2b+c=6[/tex].

If x=3, then [tex]ax^2+bx+c=12[/tex]

That is [tex]a(3)^2+b(3)+c=12[/tex]

Simplifying this gives: [tex]9a+3b+c=12[/tex].

So we have this system of equations:

 a+  b+  c=2

4a+2b+  c=6

9a+3b+  c=12

I'm going to set this up as a matrix:

[ 1    1    1    2 ]

[4   2    1    6 ]

[9   3    1    12]

Multiply first row by -4:

[ -4   -4    -4    -8 ]

[  4     2     1     6 ]

[  9     3     1     12]

Add equation 1 to 2:

[ -4    -4    -4     -8]

[   0    -2    -3    -2]

[   9    3      1      12]

Divide first row by -4:

[ 1     1        1       2]

[ 0    -2     -3     -2]

[9      3      1       12]

Multiply top row by -9:

[-9    -9      -9    -18]

[0    -2      -3       -2]

[ 9    3       1         12]

Add equation 3 to 1:

[0    -6      -8     -6]

[0    -2      -3      -2]

[9     3        1        12]

Multiply the second equation by -3:

[ 0    -6     -8     -6]

[0      6      9      6]

[9       3      1     12]

Add equation 1 to 2:

[0      -6    -8    -6]

[0       0     1       0]

[9       3      1       12]

Let's stop there the second row gives us c=0.

So the first row gives us -6b-8c=-6 where c=0 so -6b-8(0)=-6.

Let's solve this:

-6b-8(0)=-6

-6b-0=-6

-6b    =-6

  b    =1

So we have b=1 and c=0 and we haven't used that last equation yet:

9a+3b+c=12

9a+3(1)+0=12

9a+3+0=12

9a+3=12

9a=9

a=1

So your expression for the pattern is [tex]x^2+x+0[/tex] or just [tex]x^2+x[/tex].

Let's test it out for one of our terms in our sequence:

"What is the sum of the first four even numbers? 2+4+6+8=20"

So if we plug in 4 hopefully we get 20.

[tex]4^2+4[/tex]

[tex]16+4[/tex]

[tex]20[/tex]

Looks good!

Now we want to know what happens when you plug in 30.

[tex]30^2+30[/tex]

[tex]900+30[/tex]

[tex]930[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

By looking at the graph I notice an open circle at (-4, -5) which means the function is not evaluable at -4, this restricts the domain.

The Domain of a function represents the set of values for which the function has an output.

The Range of a function is the set containing all the possible values associated with all input.

Domain in interval notation: (-4, 3]. The parenthesis denotes that the interval does not contain the extreme point -4. The brackets are the opposite.

Domain in set builder notation: [tex]$\{x |-4<x \leq 3 \}$[/tex]

Range in interval notation: (-5, -3]

Range in set builder notation:  [tex]$\{y |-5<y \leq 3 \}$[/tex]

Answer:

1) Domain = {x ∈ R | -4 < x ≤ 3}

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, we have a line segment made up by two points (-4,-5) and (3,-3)

1) To find the Domain, is to find the set of values x may assume for a function.

We can also write it as compound inequality which is a complete form of writing it since inform us the set, the conditions.

{x ∈ R | -4 < x ≤ 3}

Or simply the interval (-4,3]

2) Range or Image is the set of values y may assume once you plug it in valid values for the Domain.

{y ∈ R| -5>y≥-3} or Simply (-5, -3]

Answer:

x = 6, y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the properties of a parallelogram is that the diagonals bisect each other, thus

y + 3 = 2x → (1)

2y = 3x → (2)

Subtract 3 from both sides in (1)

y = 2x - 3 → (3)

Substitute y = 2x - 3 into (2)

2(2x - 3) = 3x ← distribute left side

4x - 6 = 3x ( subtract 3x from both sides )

x - 6 = 0 ( add 6 to both sides )

x = 6

Substitute x = 6 in (3) for value of y

y = (2 × 6 ) - 3 = 12 - 3 = 9

Hence x = 6 and y = 9

[tex]\angle{ACE}=\dfrac{1}{2}(\overarc{AC}-\overarc{BD})\\\\\Rightarrow\ \angle{ACE}=\dfrac{1}{2}(106^{\circ}-48^{\circ})\\\\\Rightarrow\ \angle{ACE}=\dfrac{1}{2}(58^{\circ}))\\\\\Rightarrow\ \angle{ACE}=29^{\circ}[/tex]

Hence, the measure of [tex]\angle{ACE}=29^{\circ}[/tex]

hence, the correct answer is D. [tex]29^{\circ}[/tex]

Answer:

First option, Second option and Fourth option.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to remember that:

 1) Corresponding angles are located on the same side of the transversal (one interior and the other one exterior). They are congruent. Based on this, we can conclude that:

-Angle 1 and Angle 3 are Corresponding angles. Therefore, they are congruent.

-Angle 2 and Angle 4 are Corresponding angles. Therefore, they are congruent.

2)  Alternate interior angles are between the parallel lines,  and on opposite sides of the transversal. They are congruent.

Based on this, we can conclude that:

Angle 3 and Angle 6 are Alternate interior angles. Therefore, they are congruent.

Using the slope-intercept form, the equation of the line with slope 6 passing through the point (7,49) is obtained as y = 6x + 7.

To find the equation of a line given the slope and a point it passes through (7,49), we'll use the slope-intercept form of a line, which is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Since we are given the slope to be 6, we can substitute this into the equation, getting y = 6x + b. To find b, the y-intercept, we substitute the coordinates of the given point into the equation: 49 = 6(7) + b. After solving, we get b = 49 - 42, which simplifies to b = 7. Therefore, the complete equation of the line is y = 6x + 7.

Answer:

[tex]308.4579\ inches^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the height and radius

[tex]h=19\ inches\\r=5\ inches[/tex]

The formula for lateral area is:

[tex]LA = \pi rl[/tex]

We have to find lateral height first

[tex]l = \sqrt{r^2+h^2}\\  =\sqrt{5^2+19^2}\\ =\sqrt{25+361}\\=\sqrt{386}\\l=19.647\ inches[/tex]

Now,

[tex]LA = \pi rl\\= 3.14*5*19.647\\=308.4579\ inches^2[/tex]

Answer: [tex]308.61\ in^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the lateral area of the traffic cone, we can use the following formula:

[tex]LA=\pi rl[/tex]

Where "r" is the radius and "l" is the slant height of the cone.

We need to find the slant height.  Knowing the height and the radius, we can calculate it with the Pythagorean Theorem:

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

Where "a" is the hypotenuse and "b" and "c" are the legs of the triangle.

For this case, we can say that:

[tex]a=l\\b=19\ in\\c=5\ in[/tex]

Substituting anf solviing for "l", we get:

[tex]l^2=(19\ in)^2+(5\ in)^2\\\\l=\sqrt{(19\ in)^2+(5\ in)^2}\\\\l=19.6468\ in[/tex]

Now we can substitute values into the formula for calculate the lateral area of the traffic cone. This is:

[tex]LA=\pi (5 in)(19.6468\ in)=308.61\ in^2[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]2x-3(x+4)=-5\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\ a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\\2x+(-3)(x)+(-3)(4)=-5\\\\2x-3x-12=-5\qquad\text{add 12 to both sides}\\\\-x=7\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\x=-7[/tex]
