Answer:
a. 1 1/8 b. 8/9
Step-by-step explanation:
You can set this up as a proportion to solve. For part a. we know that 2/3 of the road is 3/4 mile long. 2/3 + 1/3 = the whole road, so we need how many miles of the road is 1/3 its length. Set up the proportion like this:
[tex]\frac{\frac{2}{3} }{\frac{3}{4} } =\frac{\frac{1}{3} }{x}[/tex]
Cross multiplying gives you:
[tex]\frac{2}{3}x=\frac{1}{3}*\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
The 3's on the right cancel out nicely, leaving you with
[tex]\frac{2}{3}x=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
To solve for x, multiply both sides by 3/2:
[tex]\frac{3}{2}*\frac{2}{3}x=\frac{1}{4}*\frac{3}{2}[/tex] gives you
[tex]x=\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
That means that the road is still missing 3/8 of a mile til it's finished. The length of the road is found by adding the 3/4 to the 3/8:
[tex]\frac{3}{4}+\frac{3}{8}=\frac{6}{8}+\frac{3}{8}=\frac{9}{8}[/tex]
So the road is a total of 1 1/8 miles long.
For b. we need to find out how much of 1 1/8 is 1 mile:
1 mile = x * 9/8 and
x = 8/9. When 1 mile of the road is completed, that is 8/9 of the total length of the road completed.

Because of Theorem 5.47 any function that is continuous on (0, 1) but unbounded cannot be uniformly continuous there. Give an example of a continuous function on (0, 1) that is bounded, but not uniformly continuous.
Answers
Answer:
[tex]f: (0,1) \to \mathbb{R}[/tex]
[tex]f(x) = \sin(1/x)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
f is continuous because is the composition of two continuous functions:
[tex]g(x) = \sin(x)[/tex] (it is continuous in the real numbers)
[tex]h(x) = 1/x[/tex] (it is continuous in the domain (0,1))
It is bounded because [tex]-1 \leq \sin(\theta) \leq 1[/tex]
And it is not uniformly continuous because we can take [tex]\varepsilon = 1[/tex] in the definition. Let [tex] \delta > 0[/tex] we will prove that there exist a pair [tex]x,y\in \mathbb{R}[/tex] such that [tex]|x-y|< \delta[/tex] and [tex]|f(x) -f(y)|> \varepsilon = 1[/tex].
Now, by the archimedean property we know that there exists a natural number N such that
[tex] \frac{1}{N} < 2\pi \delta[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2\pi N} < \delta[/tex].
Let's take [tex]x = \frac{1}{2\pi N + \pi/2}[/tex] and [tex]y = \frac{1}{2\pi N + 3\pi/2}[/tex]. We can see that
[tex]|x-y| = \frac{1}{2\pi N + \pi/2}-\frac{1}{2\pi N + 3\pi/2}<\frac{1}{2\pi N} <\delta[/tex]
And also:
[tex]|f(x)- f(y)| = |f(2\pi N + \pi/2) - f(2\pi N + 3\pi/2)| = |1 - (-1)| = 2 > \varepsilon[/tex]
And we conclude the proof.

The probability of getting a tail :-
[tex]P(B)=\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
Since both the events are independent , thus
The probability of obtaining a factor of 15 and a tail is given by :-

Hence, the required probability : [tex]\dfrac{3}{10}[/tex]
In a parade, 36 members of the color guard are to march in front of 120 members of the high school marching band. Both groups are to have the same number of students in each row. What is the greatest number of students that could be in each row? How many rows will each group have?
Answers
The greatest number of students that could be in each row is 12, which is the greatest common divisor of 36 and 120. The color guard will have 3 rows, and the high school marching band will have 10 rows.
Explanation:To determine the greatest number of students that could be in each row and the number of rows each group will have, we need to find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the two numbers representing the members in each group, 36 and 120. The greatest common divisor is the largest number that divides both numbers without leaving a remainder. Calculate this by listing the factors of each number or using the Euclidean algorithm.
Factors of 36: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36
Factors of 120: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 24, 30, 40, 60, 120
The greatest common divisor is the largest factor both numbers share, which is 12. Therefore, the greatest number of students per row is 12.
Now, to find the number of rows for each group, divide the total number of members in each group by the number of students per row:
Color guard: 36 members \/ 12 members per row = 3 rowsMarching band: 120 members \/ 12 members per row = 10 rowsSo, there will be 3 rows of color guard members and 10 rows of marching band members.

Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
t=1cos(1.05h)+37
Using acos(bx-c)+d to find the period of the given function
amplitude= a
period= 2π/Bb
phase shift=c (positive is to the left)
vertical shift=d
comparing with t=1cos(1.05h)+37, we get
a=1
b=1.05
c=0
d=37
period= 2π/b

How do you solve for n^3 + 3n^2 + n - 33 = 0?
Answers
Answer:
one real root: n ≈ 2.38450287889
Step-by-step explanation:
My favorite solution method for higher-degree polynomials is to use a graphing calculator.
Descartes' rule of signs tells you the one sign change among coefficients means there will be one positive real root. A graph shows you it is about 2.4, hence irrational (not a divisor of 33, so not rational).
You can use a cubic formula to find an explicit expression for the root, or you can find its value using any of several iteration methods. The attachment shows Newton's method iteration being used to refine the graph value of 2.385 to the more accurate 2.38450287889.
__
Factoring that root from the cubic results in a quadratic with irrational coefficients. Its vertex form is approximately ...
y = (n +2.692)² + 6.591
Hence, the complex roots will be near -2.692±i√6.591.

This has zeros at d=0 and d=300, so the maximum will be halfway between, at d=150.
f(150) = -0.01·150(150 -300) = -1.5(-150) = 225

The A-1 Car Rental Agency charges $23 per day plus $.10 per mile. The EZ Rental Agency charges $30 per day and $.05 per mile. If x is miles and y is total cost, write the ordered pair (x,y) that shows at what point the two companies charge the same amount.
Answers
Answer:
(140, 37)
Step-by-step explanation:
If we are looking for the point where the 2 companies charge the same amount, we need to set the 2 cost function equal to each other and solve for the number of miles that makes the cost the same. The number of miles will also be the same at this cost. That means we need cost functions for each. x is the number of miles that is driven, our independent variable. If A-1 charges .10 per mile, the expression is .1x. If the flat fee is 23, regardless of how many miles you drive, you can expect to pay
y = .1x + 23
If EZ charges .05 per mile, the expression is .05x. If the flat fee is 30, regardless of how many miles you drive, you can expect to pay
y = .05x + 30
If we want to see where the cost functions are equal, we set the right sides of those equations equal to one another and solve for the number of miles that makes the cost the same.
.1x + 23 = .05x + 30 and
.05x = 7 so
x = 140 miles.
In order to find the cost we will pick one of the equations and sub in 140 for x and solve for y.
y = .1(140) + 23
y = 14 + 23
y = 37
The coordinate pair is (140 miles, $37)
This means that at 140 miles driven, the cost is $37 no matter which rental agency you choose.

The binomial distribution that has a probability of success equal to .20, would be left skewed for sample size of 20.
The given statement "The binomial distribution that has a probability of success equal to .20 would be left skewed for sample size 20" is false.
The statement is incorrect. The binomial distribution with a probability of success equal to 0.20 and a sample size of 20 would not necessarily be left-skewed. The shape of the binomial distribution depends on the values of the probability of success and the sample size.
In general, for a binomial distribution with a small probability of success (such as 0.20) and a large sample size (such as 20), the distribution tends to approximate a normal distribution. As the sample size increases, the binomial distribution becomes more symmetric and bell-shaped.
Therefore, it is not accurate to claim that the binomial distribution with a probability of success equal to 0.20 and a sample size of 20 would be left-skewed.

option D
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form a line is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Compare y=mx+b and y=cx+6, we see that m=c and c is the slope.
Now we are also given that (r,s) is on our line which means s=c(r)+6.
We need to solve this for c to put c in terms of r and s as desired.
s=cr+6
Subtract 6 on both sides:
s-6=cr
Divide both sides by r:
(s-6)/r=c
