What is a great circle?

A. A circle on a sphere made by performing a plane cut anywhere on the sphere
B. A circle on a sphere that has the same radius and center as the sphere itself
C. A circle on a sphere that doesn't pass through the sphere's center
D. Another name for a sphere

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

It's not D. A sphere is a sphere. A billiard ball is a billiard ball. Both are spheres. No other name applies to the sphere.

It is not C. That might be true if you are talking about a circumference.

The exact definition is B. B is the answer.

A is not true. The cut must go through the center as B suggests.

Does the equation represent a direct variation? If so, find the constant variation. 3y=5x+4

Answers

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

Direction variation is of the form y = kx.

This is not direct variation.

The equation 3y = 5x + 4 does not represent a direct variation because it includes a constant term '+4'. A direct variation would only have the form y = kx without any added or subtracted constants.

The equation 3y=5x+4 represents a direct variation, and if so, to find the constant of variation. A direct variation is when one variable is a constant multiple of another, expressed in the form y = kx, where k is the constant of variation. In this case, the equation 3y = 5x + 4 is not a direct variation because of the additional constant term '+4'. For it to be a direct variation, y must be alone on one side of the equation, and there should be no constant term added or subtracted with the term that is a multiple of x.

To be a direct variation, the equation needs to have the form y = kx. In the practice equation y + 7 = 3x, if we solve for y, we get y = 3x - 7 which still would not be a direct variation because of the -7. The other example equation 4y = 8 is not in the form of direct variation either since it has no variable x in it; it represents a horizontal line where y is a constant.

What is the range of the function f(x) = -|X - 4| + 5?
19 A. (-0,5)
B. (-09. 5)
C. (-5. infinity)
D. (5 .infinity)​

Answers

Answer:

Range = (-∞, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the absolute value function with transformation.

The parent function is f(x) = |x|

This function has a "negative" in front, so it makes it reflect about x axis

The -4 after x makes horizontal translation of 4 units right

the +5 at the end makes the function translate 5 units UP

The graph is shown in the attached picture.

Looking at the graph, we can clearly see the range. The range is the allowed y-values. Hence, we can see that the range is  -infinity to 5

(i+7)^2

(i+7)(i+7)

Use foil.

First: i(i)=i^2=-1

Outer: i(7)=7i

Inner: 7(i)=7i

Last: 7(7)=49

____________Add the terms.

48+14i

After solving the expression, the result of squaring value of a will be equal to 14i + 48.

What is an expression?

Mathematical actions are called expressions if they have at least two terms that are related by an operator and include either numbers, variables, or both. Adding, subtraction, multiplying, and division are all reflection coefficient operations. A mathematical operation such as reduction, addition, multiplication, or division is used to integrate terms into an expression.

As per the data provided by the question,

The net of a square pyramid is shown:

Answers

Answer:

The surface area of the pyramid is 0.6625 inches²

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to find the surface area of the square pyramid

- The square pyramid has 5 faces

- A square base

- Four triangular faces

- Its surface area is the sum of the areas of the five faces

- Area of the square = L × L , where L is the length of its sides

- Area of the triangle = 1/2 × b × h , where b is the length of its base

 and h is the length of its height

∵ The length of the side of the square is 0.25 inches

∴ Area of the base = 0.25 × 0.25 = 0.0625 inches²

∵ The length of the base of the triangle is 0.25 inches and the length

  of its height is 1.2 inches

∴ The area of its triangular face = 1/2 × 0.25 × 1.2 = 0.15 inches²

∵ The surface area of the pyramid = the sum of the areas of the 5 faces

∵ The area of the four triangular faces are equal

∴ The surface area = 0.0625 + (4 × 0.15) = 0.0625 + 0.6

∴ The surface area = 0.6625 inches²

* The surface area of the pyramid is 0.6625 inches²

A King in ancient times agreed to reward the inventor of chess with one grain of wheat on the first of the 64 squares of a chess board. On the second square the King would place two grains of​ wheat, on the third​ square, four grains of​ wheat, and on the fourth square eight grains of wheat. If the amount of wheat is doubled in this way on each of the remaining​ squares, what is the total weight in tons of all the wheat that will be placed on the first 51 ​squares? (Assume that each grain of wheat weighs​ 1/7000 pound. Remember that 1 ton equals 2000 ​lbs.)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of grains of wheat on the n(th) square is 2^(n-1), or 2 to  

the power of n-1.  This is because the first square has 2^0 = 1 grain,  

the second has 2^1 = 2, and the n(th) square has twice as many as the  

previous. Thus the total number of grains of wheat is

    S = 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + ... + 2^63.

Since this is a geometric sequence with common ratio 2, the sum is

        2^64 - 1

Give the five number summary.

Answers

Final answer:

The five number summary for the ages of best actress Oscar winners is composed of the minimum (21), first quartile (Q1 - 30), median (Q2 - 33), third quartile (Q3 - 41), and maximum (81) values.

Explanation:

The first step to finding the five number summary is to identify the minimum, first quartile (Q1), median (second quartile Q2), third quartile (Q3), and the maximum from the sorted dataset of best actress Oscar winners.

Minimum: The smallest number in the dataset is 21.

Q1: The first quartile is the median of the first half of the data. Since we have an odd number of data points (91), we split the data into two parts of 45 values each. The first quartile is the median of the first 45 ages, which is the 23rd data point in the sorted list when counting from the smallest age. In our case, Q1 is 30.

Median (Q2): The median is the middle value, which is the 46th data point for our 91 data points. The median is also the age of 33.

Q3: The third quartile is the median of the second half of the data. The third quartile is the 68th data point, which is the age of 41.

Maximum: The largest age in the dataset is 81.

Therefore, the five number summary of the ages of best actress Oscar winners is 21, 30, 33, 41, and 81.

Answer:

A. Mean = $41900

B. Median = $37000

C. Mode = $37000

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Mean

Here

n=40

Mean = Sum of values/n

[tex]Mean = \frac{(3)(18000)+(3)(22000)+(3)(25000)+(5)(34000)+(17)(37000)+(2)(45000)+52000+(5)(80000)+140000}{40}\\=\frac{54000+66000+75000+170000+629000+90000+52000+400000+140000}{40} \\=\frac{1676000}{40}\\=41900[/tex]

Mean = $41900

B. Median:

As the number of salaries is even,

the median will be mean of middle two terms

[tex]Median= \frac{1}{2}(\frac{n}{2}th\ term+ \frac{n+2}{2}th\ term)\\=  \frac{1}{2}(\frac{40}{2}th\ term+ \frac{40+2}{2}th\ term)\\=\frac{1}{2} (20th + 21st)}\\[/tex]

The 20th and 21st term will be 37000

So their mean will be same

So,

Median = $37000

C. Mode

Mode is the value which occurs most of the time in data.

the occurrence of 37000 is highest in the given data.

So,

Mode = $37000 ..

What is the coefficient of x3y2 in the expansion of (2x + y)5?

Answers

Step-by-step answer:

The coefficients of terms of (p+q)^n can be found by the Pascal's triangle for small values of n.  Pascal's triangle will start with (1,1)  = coefficients of (p,q)^n =1.  For n=2, we add successive terms of the previous value of n.  Thus for n-2, we have (, 1+1,11=(1,2,1), for n=3, we have (1,3,3,1), giving the following pattern:

(1,1)

(1,2,1)

(1,3,3,1)

(1,4,6,4,1)

(1,5,10,10,5,1)

meaning for n=5, the binomial expansion for (P+Q)^5 is

P^5+5P^4Q+10P^3Q^2+10P^2Q^3+5PQ^4+Q^5

Setting P=2x, Q=y in the term 10P^3Q^2, we get a term

10(2x)^3(y)^2

=10(8x^3)(y^2)

=80x^3y^2

So the required coefficient is K=80.

We can also find the coefficient 10 by binomial expansion of

n=5, x=3 in

C(n,x) = n! / (x! (n-x)!) = 5! / (2!3!) = 5*4*3/(1*2*3) = 10

Then again substituting 10(2x)^3(y)^2 = 80x^3y^2

to get the coefficient K=80.

Need help QUICK! Given triangle ABC, which equation could be used to find the measure of angle B?


Plz look at pic for answers

Answers

Answer:

second option

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to use the acronym:

"Soh Cah Toa".

Why? It tells us the right-triangle definitions of sine, cosine, and tangent.

sine is opposite over hypotenuse.

cosine is adjacent over hypotenuse.

tangent is opposite over adjacent.

So looking at our triangle with respect to B tells us that 3 is the opposite measurement and 6 is the adjacent.  No matter what angle we are looking for in this triangle, the hypotenuse is constantly going to by [tex]3\sqrt{5}[/tex].

So let's look at cos(B).

[tex]\cos(B)=\frac{6}{3\sqrt{5}}[/tex]

We need to rationalize the denominator by multiplying top and bottom by sqrt(5):

[tex]\cos(B)=\frac{6\sqrt{5}}{3(5)}=\frac{2\sqrt{5}}{5}[/tex]

So now looking at sin(B).

[tex]\sin(B)=\frac{3}{3\sqrt{5}}[/tex]

We have to rationalize again by multiplying top and bottom by sqrt(5):

[tex]\sin(B)=\frac{3\sqrt{5}}{3(5)}=\frac{\sqrt{5}}{5}[/tex].

So looking at our triangle with respect to A tells us that 3 is the adjacent measurement and 6 is the opposite.  No matter what angle we are looking for in this triangle, the hypotenuse is constantly going to by [tex]3\sqrt{5}[/tex].

We don't have to use any trigonometric ratios with A.

What is the average rate of change for this function for the interval from x = 2
to x = 4?

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of f(x) in the closed interval [ a, b ] is

[tex]\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex]

Here [ a, b ] = [ 2, 4 ]

From the table

f(b) = f(4) = 16

f(a) = f(2) = 4, hence

average rate of change = [tex]\frac{16-4}{4-2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{2}[/tex] = 6

Final answer:

The average rate of change for a function is calculated using the change in y-values divided by the change in x-values.

Explanation:

The average rate of change for a function is the change in the y-values (output) divided by the change in the x-values (input) over a given interval. To calculate the average rate of change for the function from x = 2 to x = 4, we need to find the change in y-values and the change in x-values for this interval.

Let's assume the function is f(x). We can calculate the average rate of change using the formula:

Average Rate of Change = (f(4) - f(2)) / (4 - 2)

Replace f(4) and f(2) with the corresponding y-values for x = 4 and x = 2, respectively, to get the final result.

Jagdish is 3 years younger than Resham and Rajesh is 5 years older than Jagdish. If the product of present age of Resham and Rajesh is 960.How old is Jagdish?​

Answers

Answer:

Jagdish is 27 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Jagdish=x

Resham=x+3

Rajesh=x+5

(x+3)(x+5) = 960

x²+8x+15=960

x²+8x=945

x²+8x-945=0

now factor this to solve

(x-27)=0 (x+35)=0

which means

x=27 and x=-35

obviously, we cannot have negative ages so we use x=27

so, Jagdish=27

Resham=30

Rajesh=32

and we can check this by doing 30x32 which does equal 960 so it is correct

The age of Jagdish for the condition is 27 years.

What are quadratic equations?

The definition of a quadratic as a second-degree polynomial equation demands that at least one squared term must be included. It also goes by the name quadratic equations. The quadratic equation has the following generic form:

ax² + bx + c = 0

Given Jagdish is 3 years younger than Resham

and  Rajesh is 5 years older than Jagdish

let age of Jagdish be x

Resham = x + 3

Rajesh = x + 5

according to conditions,

(x + 3)(x + 5) = 960

x² + 8x + 15 = 960

x² + 8x = 945

x² + 8x- 945=0

now factor this to solve

(x - 27)(x + 35) = 0

(x - 27) = 0, (x + 35) = 0

which means

x=27 and x=-35

obviously, we cannot have negative ages so we use x = 27

Therefore, the age of Jagdish is 27 years.

ANSWER

[tex]x = - 1 \: or \: x = - \frac{1}{ 3} [/tex]

EXPLANATION

The given equation is:

[tex] {x}^{ - 2} + 4 {x}^{ - 1} + 3 = 0[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex] {a}^{ - m} = \frac{1}{ {a}^{m} } [/tex]

[tex] \frac{1}{ {x}^{2} } + \frac{4}{x} + 3 = 0[/tex]

Or

[tex] {( \frac{1}{x} )}^{2} + 4( \frac{1}{x} ) + 3 = 0[/tex]

Let

[tex]u = \frac{1}{x} [/tex]

Our equation then becomes:

[tex] {u}^{2} + 4u + 3 = 0[/tex]

The factors of 3 that add up to 4 are:

[tex] {u}^{2} + 3u + u + 3[/tex]

[tex]u(u + 3) + 1(u + 3) = 0[/tex]

[tex](u + 1)(u + 3) = 0[/tex]

[tex]u + 1 = 0 \: or \: u + 3 = 0[/tex]

[tex]u = - 1 \: or \: u = - 3[/tex]

This implies that:

[tex] \frac{1}{x} = - 1 \: or \: \frac{1}{x} = - 3[/tex]

[tex]x = - 1 \: or \: x = - \frac{1}{ 3} [/tex]
