Answer 2
Final answer:

The created word problem involves Sam and his apples. Here, the variable 'x' represents the number of apples Sam's friend has. By solving the equation, we deduce that Sam's friend has 3 apples, so Sam originally had 10 apples.

Explanation:

Let's create a word problem for the equation 2x + 4 = 10:

Sam has twice as many apples as his friend. If Sam gives 4 apples to his friend, he will only have 10 apples left. How many apples did Sam have originally?

In this problem, the variable 'x' represents the number of apples Sam's friend has. Therefore, to solve the problem, you would subtract 4 from both sides of the equation to get 2x = 10 - 4. Simplifying gives you 2x = 6. Finally, dividing both sides of the equation by 2 gives you x = 3. So, Sam's friend has 3 apples, meaning Sam originally had 2 * 3 + 4 = 10 apples.

- The answer is 25% markup.

Just explain how to get 25% markup.

Answers

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

The schools

pay $2.00 per bottle for the juice sell it to community members for $2.50 per bottle.

So,

$2.00 - 100%

$2.50 - x%

Write a proportion

[tex]\dfrac{2.00}{2.50}=\dfrac{100}{x}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]2x=2.5\cdot 100\\ \\2x=250\\ \\x=125\%[/tex]

A certain one-day seminar consisted of a morning session and an afternoon session. If each of the 128 people attending the seminar attended at least one of the two sessions, how many of the people attended the morning session only?

Answers

Answer: 64 people attended to the morning session only.

Step-by-step explanation:

They told us that each one of the 128 people attended at least one of the two sessions of the one-day seminar. We don't know for sure to which one of the sessions they attended, we only know that every person attended at least one. The probability of one person going to the morning session is the same as the probability that they will go to the afternoon session: 50%. To get the number of persons that attended the morning session only, we simply have to perform the product between the probability and the total number of potential attendees to the seminar. Let N be the total number of attendes, M the number of persons going to the morning session only and P the probability of those persons actually going to that session:

[tex]M = N \times P = 128 \times 0.5 = 64[/tex]

So the total number of persons that attended the morning sessions only is 64.

please i need help A baseball is thrown at an angle of 20º relative to the ground at a speed of 25.0 m/s. If the ball was caught 50.0 m from the thrower, how long was it in the air? (1 point)

How high did the baseball travel before beginning it's descent?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's split the analysis on two components, horizontal and vertical.

Supposed no air resistence, the horizontal movement is given by the expression [tex] d=25.0 cos20° t[/tex]. Since it travels 50 m, solving for [tex]t[/tex] you get [tex]t=\frac2.0{cos20°} \approx 2 s[/tex].

The vertical movement is given by the expression [tex] h=25.0sin20°t-\frac12gt^2[/tex], where [tex]g=9.81m/s^2[/tex] is the gravitational acceleration. The highest point is reached when the vertical velocity ([tex]v=25.0sin 20° -gt[/tex]) is zero, or at [tex]t=\frac{25.0sin20°}{9.81} \approx 1s. At this time, it's height will be [tex] h= 25.0sin20° (1) -\frac1/2 (9.81) (1^2) \approx 4 m. [/tex]

For which values of λ does the system of equations (λ − 2)x + y = 0 x + (λ − 2)y = 0 have nontrivial solutions? (That is, solutions other than x = y = 0.) For each such λ find a nontrivial solution.

Answers

Answer:

λ=3,λ=1

Step-by-step explanation:

let (λ-2)=a

[tex]ax + y = 0\\x + ay = 0[/tex]

solve:

[tex]ax + y = 0\\ax + a^2y = 0\\y-a^2y=0\\a^2 = 1[/tex]

replace a:

Nontrivial solutions in a system of equations are found when the determinant of the characteristic matrix is zero. For the given equations, the values of λ that lead to nontrivial solutions are λ = 2, with a nontrivial solution x = 1, y = -1.

Nontrivial solutions of the system of equations occur when the determinant of the characteristic matrix is zero. For the given equations, you need to find values of λ that make the determinant of the matrix zero. This means solving for λ where (λ-2)^2 = 0.

Thus, the values of λ that lead to nontrivial solutions are λ = 2. For λ = 2, a nontrivial solution would be x = 1, y = -1.

This process identifies when the system has solutions beyond the trivial one where x = y = 0.

x =(3+√-75)/-6=1/-2-5i/6√ 3 = -0.5000+1.4434i

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    0-(3*x^2+3*x+7)=0

Step by step solution:

Step  1:

Equation at the end of step  1  :

 0 -  (([tex]-3x^{2}[/tex] +  3x) +  7)  = 0  

Step  2:

Pulling out like terms:

2.1     Pull out like factors:

  [tex]-3x^{2}[/tex] - 3x - 7  =   -1 • ([tex]3x^{2}[/tex] + 3x + 7)

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

2.2     Factoring  [tex]3x^{2}[/tex] + 3x + 7

The first term is,  [tex]3x^{2}[/tex]  its coefficient is  3 .

The middle term is,  +3x  its coefficient is  3 .

The last term, "the constant", is  +7

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   3 • 7 = 21

Step-2 : Find two factors of  21  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   3 .

     -21    +    -1    =    -22

     -7    +    -3    =    -10

     -3    +    -7    =    -10

     -1    +    -21    =    -22

     1    +    21    =    22

     3    +    7    =    10

     7    +    3    =    10

     21    +    1    =    22

Observation : No two such factors can be found !!

Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored

Equation at the end of step  3  :

 [tex]-3x^{2}[/tex] - 3x - 7  = 0

Step  3:

Parabola, Finding the Vertex:

3.1      Find the Vertex of   y = [tex]-3x^{2}[/tex]-3x-7

For any parabola,Ax2+Bx+C,the  x -coordinate of the vertex is given by  -B/(2A) . In our case the  x  coordinate is  -0.5000  

Plugging into the parabola formula  -0.5000  for  x  we can calculate the  y -coordinate :

 y = -3.0 * -0.50 * -0.50 - 3.0 * -0.50 - 7.0

or   y = -6.250

Parabola, Graphing Vertex and X-Intercepts :

Root plot for :  y = [tex]-3x^{2}[/tex]-3x-7

Axis of Symmetry (dashed)  {x}={-0.50}

Vertex at  {x,y} = {-0.50,-6.25}

Function has no real roots

Solve Quadratic Equation by Completing The Square

3.2     Solving   [tex]-3x^{2}[/tex]-3x-7 = 0 by Completing The Square .

Multiply both sides of the equation by  (-1)  to obtain positive coefficient for the first term:

[tex]3x^{2}[/tex]+3x+7 = 0  Divide both sides of the equation by  3  to have 1 as the coefficient of the first term :

  [tex]x^{2}[/tex]+x+(7/3) = 0

Subtract  7/3  from both side of the equation :

  [tex]x^{2}[/tex]+x = -7/3

Now the clever bit: Take the coefficient of  x , which is  1 , divide by two, giving  1/2 , and finally square it giving  1/4

Add  1/4  to both sides of the equation :

 On the right hand side we have :

  -7/3  +  1/4   The common denominator of the two fractions is  12   Adding  (-28/12)+(3/12)  gives  -25/12

 So adding to both sides we finally get :

  [tex]x^{2}[/tex]+x+(1/4) = -25/12

Adding  1/4  has completed the left hand side into a perfect square :

  [tex]x^{2}[/tex]+x+(1/4)  =

  (x+(1/2)) • (x+(1/2))  =

 (x+(1/2))2

Things which are equal to the same thing are also equal to one another. Since

  [tex]x^{2}[/tex]+x+(1/4) = -25/12 and

  [tex]x^{2}[/tex]+x+(1/4) = (x+(1/2))2

then, according to the law of transitivity,

  (x+(1/2))2 = -25/12

We'll refer to this Equation as  Eq. #3.2.1  

The Square Root Principle says that When two things are equal, their square roots are equal.

Note that the square root of

  (x+(1/2))2   is

  (x+(1/2))2/2 =

 (x+(1/2))1 =

  x+(1/2)

Now, applying the Square Root Principle to  Eq. #4.2.1  we get:

  x+(1/2) = √ -25/12

Subtract  1/2  from both sides to obtain:

  x = -1/2 + √ -25/12

 √ 3   , rounded to 4 decimal digits, is   1.7321

So now we are looking at:

          x  =  ( 3 ± 5 •  1.732 i ) / -6

Two imaginary solutions :

x =(3+√-75)/-6=1/-2-5i/6√ 3 = -0.5000+1.4434i

 or:

x =(3-√-75)/-6=1/-2+5i/6√ 3 = -0.5000-1.4434i

Kim made 1 1/4 quarts of a fruit smoothie. She drank 1/5 of her smoothie. Her brothers drank the rest. They each had 1/3 quart. How many brothers does Kim have?

Answers

6/3 Quart It is a multi step problem

Answer:

3 brothers.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that Kim made [tex]1\frac{1}{4}[/tex] quarts of a fruit smoothie.

Observation: [tex]1\frac{1}{4}[/tex] is the same as saying [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] because, [tex]1\frac{1}{4} =1+\frac{1}{4} =\frac{4.1+1}{4} =\frac{5}{4}[/tex], then Kim made [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] of a fruit smoothie.

Now, the problem says that Kim drank [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] of her smoothie, this means:

[tex]\frac{5}{4} .\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Kim drank [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] quart of the smoothie, the rest of the smoothie is:

[tex]\frac{5}{4}- \frac{1}{4}=\frac{4}{4}[/tex]

Now to know how many brothers Kim has we have to divide the rest of the smoothie ([tex]\frac{4}{4}[/tex]) in [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex], this is:

[tex]\frac{4}{4} :\frac{1}{3} =\frac{12}{4} =3[/tex]

Then Kim has 3 brothers.

If a ball is thrown into the air with a velocity of 46 ft/s, its height in feet t seconds later is given by y = 46t − 16t2.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

you want maximum height reached?

[tex]\frac{dy}{dt} =46-32t\\\\at max. height velocity=0\\ 0=46-32t\\32 t=46\\t=46/32=23/16\\y=t(46-16t)\\ at t=\frac{23}{16} \\ y=\frac{23}{16}(46-16*\frac{23}{16} )\\\\y=\frac{529}{16} ft[/tex]

i. Average velocity for a time period of 0.5 seconds: -26 ft/s.  ii. Average velocity for a time period of 0.1 seconds: -36.4 ft/s iii. Average velocity for a time period of 0.05 seconds: 3.2 ft/s.  iv. Average velocity for a time period of 0.01 seconds: -18.36 ft/s

To find the average velocity for a given time period, we need to calculate the change in height and divide it by the change in time.

Given the height equation:[tex]y = 46t - 16t^2[/tex]

i. Time period of 0.5 seconds:

Initial time, [tex]t_1 = 2[/tex]

Final time, [tex]t_2 = 2 + 0.5 = 2.5[/tex]

Change in time: [tex]\delta t = t2 - t1 = 2.5 - 2 = 0.5[/tex] seconds

To find the change in height, we substitute the initial and final times into the height equation:

Initial height, [tex]y_1 = 46t_1 - 16t_1^2 = 46(2) - 16(2)^2 = 92 - 64 = 28[/tex] feet

Final height, [tex]y_2 = 46t_2 - 16t_2^2 = 46(2.5) - 16(2.5)^2 = 115 - 100 = 15[/tex]feet

Change in height:  [tex]\delta y = y_2 - y_1 = 15 - 28 = -13[/tex] feet

Average velocity: V_avg = Δy / Δt = -13 / 0.5 = -26 ft/s (negative since the ball is moving downward)

ii. Time period of 0.1 seconds:

Initial time,[tex]t_1 = 2[/tex]

Final time, [tex]t_2 = 2 + 0.1 = 2.1[/tex]

Change in time: [tex]\delta t = t_2 - t_1 = 2.1 - 2 = 0.1[/tex]seconds

Initial height, [tex]y_1 = 46t_1 - 16t_1^2 = 46(2) - 16(2)^2 = 92 - 64 = 28[/tex] feet

Final height, [tex]y_2 = 46t_2 - 16t_2^2 = 46(2.1) - 16(2.1)^2 = 96.6 - 72.24 = 24.36[/tex] feet

Change in height: [tex]\delta y = y_2 - y_1 = 24.36 - 28 = -3.64[/tex]feet

Average velocity: [tex]V_{avg} = \delta y / \delta t = -3.64 / 0.1 = -36.4[/tex] ft/s (negative since the ball is moving downward)

iii. Time period of 0.05 seconds:

Initial time, [tex]t_1 = 2[/tex]

Final time, [tex]t_2 = 2 + 0.05 = 2.05[/tex]

Change in time: [tex]\delta t = t_2 - t_1 = 2.05 - 2 = 0.05[/tex] seconds

Initial height, [tex]y_1 = 46t_1 - 16t_1^2 = 46(2) - 16(2)^2 = 92 - 64 = 28[/tex] feet

Final height, [tex]y_2 = 46t_2 - 16t_2^2 = 46(2.05) - 16(2.05)^2 =95.4 - 67.24 = 28.16[/tex] feet

Change in height: [tex]\delta y = y_2 - y_1 = 28.16 - 28 = 0.16[/tex] feet

Average velocity: [tex]V_{avg} = \delta y / \delta t = 0.16 / 0.05 = 3.2[/tex] ft/s

iv. Time period of 0.01 second:

Initial time, t_1 = 2[tex]t_1 = 2[/tex]

Final time, [tex]t_2 = 2 + 0.01 = 2.01[/tex]

Change in time: [tex]\delta t = t2 - t1 = 2.01 - 2 = 0.01[/tex]seconds

Initial height, [tex]y_1 = 46t_1 - 16{t_1}^2 = 46(2) - 16(2)^2 = 92 - 64 = 28[/tex] feet

Final height, [tex]y_2 = 46t_2 - 16t2^2 = 46(2.01) - 16(2.01)^2 =92.46 - 64.6436 = 27.8164[/tex] feet

Change in height: [tex]\delta y = y_2 - y_1 = 27.8164 - 28 = -0.1836[/tex] feet

Average velocity: [tex]V_avg = \delta y / \delta t = -0.1836 / 0.01 = -18.36[/tex]  ft/s (negative since the ball is moving downward)

To estimate the instantaneous velocity when t = 2, we can find the derivative of the height equation with respect to time, dy/dt:

[tex]y = 46t - 16t^2\\dy/dt = 46 - 32t[/tex]

Substitute t = 2 into the derivative equation:

[tex]dy/dt = 46 - 32(2) = 46 - 64 = -18[/tex] ft/s (negative since the ball is moving downward)

Therefore, the estimated instantaneous velocity when t = 2 is -18 ft/s.

Hence, i. Average velocity for a time period of 0.5 seconds: -26 ft/s.  ii. Average velocity for a time period of 0.1 seconds: -36.4 ft/s iii. Average velocity for a time period of 0.05 seconds: 3.2 ft/s.  iv. Average velocity for a time period of 0.01 seconds: -18.36 ft/s

A cash register at a store contains $66 bills. There are 6 more $5 bills than $10 bills. The number of $1 dollar bills is three times more the number of $10 dollar bills. How many bills of each kind are there?

Answers

Answer: There are 8 $5 bills, 2 $10 bills, and 6 $1 bills.

Step-by-step explanation: If you have 6 more $5 bills than the number of $10 bills, that means you have at least 6 to start off with. This also means you have at least 1 $10 bill. If you have 1 $10 bill, then you have 3 $1 bills as well. Adding those bills up, you get $43. From here, you know you need $3 more. Meaning you have to add another $10 bill. Since you added another $10 bill, you have to equal out the $5 bills.

So if you know you have 2 $10 bills and 6 $1 bills, you can determine that you need 8 $5 bills to complete the set.

2 $10 = $20

8 $5 = $40

6 $1 = $6

Answers

Answer:

(a) Please see the first figure attached

(b) The coordinates of the centroid are [tex]G(\frac{2}{3}, \frac{m+n}{3} )[/tex]

(c) due to the definition of the centroid of a triangle, this will always lie inside the triangle, therefore, for any value of [tex]m[/tex] and [tex]n[/tex], the centroid will lie

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, let us first solve part (a). Since for any given values of [tex]n[/tex] and [tex]m[/tex] we will obtain two linear functions:

[tex]y=-mx[/tex] and

[tex]y=-nx[/tex]

with [tex]0\leq x\leq 1[/tex] we can assure that our region is going to be a triangle. To see this, please take a look at the plot I generated using Wolfram. In this case, I have used two specific values for m and n but keeping the condition [tex]0\leq n\leq m[/tex].

Now, for part (b) let me start remembering what the centroid is: the centroid of a triangle is the point where the three medians of the triangle meet. And a median of a triangle is a line segment from one vertex to the midpoint on the opposite side of the triangle (see the second figure where the medians are depicted in red and the centroid of the triangle, G is depicted in blue). For a given triangle [tex]\bigtriangleup \rm{ABC}[/tex], the coordinates of its centroid [tex]G[/tex] are given by:

[tex]G_x=\frac{A_x+B_x+C_x}{3}[/tex] and [tex]G_y=\frac{A_y+B_y+C_y}{3}[/tex]

Now let's apply this to our problem. Take a look at the first figure. The vertex A has clearly coordinates [tex](0,0)[/tex] for any value of [tex]m[/tex] and [tex]n[/tex] since the two lines have their intersection with y-axis in this point.

To obtain the coordinates of [tex]B[/tex] and [tex]C[/tex], let's use the given functions and the fact that the coordinate x is limited to 1. Then, we have:

For A:

[tex]y=-mx[/tex] then, when [tex]x=1[/tex], substituting in the formula [tex]y=-m[/tex]

For B and doing the same as for A:

[tex]y=-nx[/tex] then, when [tex]x=1[/tex], substituting in the formula [tex]y=-n[/tex]

Thus, the coordinates of the vertices of the triangle are: [tex]A(1, m)[/tex], [tex]B(1,3)[/tex] and [tex]C(0,0)[/tex] and the coordinates of the centroid are:

[tex]G_x=\frac{A_x+B_x+C_x}{3} = G_x=\frac{1+1+0}{3}\\G_x=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

and

[tex]G_y=\frac{A_y+B_y+C_y}{3}=\frac{m+n+0}{3}\\G_y=\frac{m+n}{3}[/tex].

Summarizing: the coordinates of the centroid of the region are [tex]G(\frac{2}{3}, \frac{m+n}{3} )[/tex]

Now, for part (c), due to the definition of the centroid of a triangle, this will always lie inside the triangle, therefore, for any value of [tex]m[/tex] and [tex]n[/tex], the centroid will lie. Other important points of the triangle, like the orthocentre and circumcentre, can lie outside in obtuse triangles. In right triangles, the orthocentre always lies at the right-angled vertex.

Based on an 8-hour day, the number of hours worked in a hospital food service department was 55,267/yr, and the total number of hours paid was 59,995/yr. The actual number of productive FTEs was:
a. 2.27b. 18.90c. 26.60d. 28.80

Answers

Final answer:

To find the actual number of productive FTEs, divide the total number of hours worked (55,267) by the number of hours worked per FTE. The answer is option a. 2.27.

Explanation:

To find the actual number of productive FTEs, we need to divide the total number of hours worked (55,267) by the number of hours worked per FTE. The number of hours worked per FTE can be calculated by dividing the total number of hours paid by the total number of productive FTEs. So, the equation becomes:

55,267 / (59,995 / x) = x

Multiplying both sides of the equation by (59,995 / x), we get:

55,267 = (59,995 / x) * x

Simplifying further:

55,267 = 59,995

Dividing both sides of the equation by 59,995, we get:

x = 55,267 / 59,995

x = 0.9213

Therefore, the actual number of productive FTEs is approximately 0.9213, which can be rounded to 0.92. Therefore, the answer is option a. 2.27.

Final answer:

The actual number of productive Full-Time Equivalents (FTEs) is calculated by dividing the total annual productive hours (55,267 hours/year) by the standard annual working hours for one full-time employee (2,080 hours/year), resulting in 26.57, which rounds to option c. 26.60.

Explanation:

To calculate the actual number of productive Full-Time Equivalents (FTEs) based on the hours worked in a hospital food service department, we use the given number of hours worked per year and divide it by the standard number of working hours in a year for one full-time employee.

First, let's establish the standard number of working hours in a year for one FTE, based on an 8-hour day:

1 workday = 8 hours1 workweek = 5 workdays (typically for full-time)1 workyear (excluding holidays/vacations) = 52 workweeksTotal working hours in a year = 8 hours/day × 5 days/week × 52 weeks/year = 2,080 hours/year

To find the actual number of productive FTEs, we divide the number of hours worked by the standard number of working hours in a year:

Productive Hours Worked: 55,267 hours/year

Standard Hours for 1 FTE: 2,080 hours/year

Actual number of productive FTEs = Productive Hours Worked / Standard Hours for 1 FTE

Actual number of productive FTEs = 55,267 hours/year / 2,080 hours/year

Actual number of productive FTEs = 26.57

Therefore, the nearest option to our result is c. 26.60.

A certain brand of upright freezer is available in three different rated capacities: 16 ft3, 18 ft3, and 20 ft3. Let X = the rated capacity of a freezer of this brand sold at a certain store. Suppose that X has the following pmf.
x 16 18 20
p(x) 0.5 0.3 0.2
Calculate E(X)

Answers

Answer:

E(X) = 17.4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can calculate the expected value of a random X variable that is discrete (X takes specific values ) as:

E(X) =  ∑xp(x)  where x are the specific values of x and p(x) the probability associated with this x value.

In this way the expexted value is

E(X) =  ∑xp(x) =(16*0.6)+(18*0.3)+(20*0.2) = 8+5.4+4 =  17.4

For what values of b are the vectors \langle -46, b, 10 \rangle and \langle b, b^2, b \rangle orthogonal

Answers

Answer:

b = 6 or b = -6 (non-zero vectors)

b = 0 (zero vector)

Step-by-step explanation:

Two vectors [tex]\vec{a}=\langle a_1,a_2,a_3\rangle[/tex] and [tex]\vec{b}=\langle b_1,b_2,b_3\rangle[/tex] are orthogonal if their dot product is equal to 0, or in other words

[tex]a_1\cdot b_1+a_2\cdot b_2+a_3\cdot b_3=0[/tex]

In your case,

[tex]\vec{a}=\langle -46, b, 10\rangle\\ \\\vec{b}=\langle b,b^2,b\rangle[/tex]

Hence, if vectors a and b are orthogonal, then

[tex]-46\cdot b+b\cdot b^2+10\cdot b=0\\ \\-46b+b^3+10b=0\\ \\b^3-36b=0\\ \\b(b^2-36)=0\\ \\b(b-6)(b+6)=0\\ \\b=0\text{ or }b=6\text{ or }b=-6[/tex]

Note, then if b = 0, then [tex]\vec{b}=\langle 0,0,0\rangle[/tex] and zero-vector is orthogonal to any other vectors.

Thus, b = 6 or b = -6.

Determine if the function shows a linear relationship or an absolute value relationship. Then evaluate the function for the indicated value of x.
a. f(x) = |x – 3| – 2; x = –5
b. g(x) = 1.5x; x = 0.2
c. p(x) = |7 – 2x|; x = –3

Answers

I think it’s b:g(x)=1.5x; x=0.2

Answer:

(a) Absolute value relationship, f(-5)=6

(b) Linear relationship, g(0.2)=0.3

(c) Absolute value relationship, p(-3)=13

Step-by-step explanation:

A modulas function always represents an absolute value relationship.

A polynomial function with degree 1 is always represents a linear function.

(a)

The given function is

[tex]f(x)=|x-3|-2[/tex]

It is a modulas function, so it represents an absolute value relationship.

Substitute x=-5 in the given function.

[tex]f(-5)=|-5-3|-2\Rightarrow 8-2=6[/tex]

Therefore the value of function at x=-5 is 6.

(b)

The given function is

[tex]g(x)=1.5x[/tex]

It is a linear function, so it represents a linear relationship.

Substitute x=0.2 in the given function.

[tex]g(0.2)=1.5(0.2)=0.3[/tex]

Therefore the value of function at x=0.2 is 0.3.

(c)

The given function is

[tex]p(x)=|7-2x|[/tex]

It is a modulas function, so it represents an absolute value relationship.

Substitute x=-3 in the given function.

[tex]p(-3)=|7-2(-3)|\Rightarrow |7+6|=13[/tex]

Therefore the value of function at x=-3 is 13.

In a housing project there are 350 households in which English is spoken, 50 in which Spanish is spoken, and 100 in which the language is other than English or Spanish. If a psychologist approaches a house at random to conduct an interview, the chance that the language in that household will NOT be English?a- .002b- .14c- .3d- .43

Answers

Answer:   C. 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Number of English speaking households =350

Number of Spanish speaking households =50     (1)

Number of households in which the language is other than English or Spanish=100      (2)

Total households participates in this survey =350+50+100=500

No. of households not speak English =100+50=150    (Add (1) and (2))

If a psychologist approaches a house at random to conduct an interview, the chance that the language in that household will NOT be English will be :_

[tex]\dfrac{\text{No. of households not speak English}}{\text{Total households}}\\\\=\dfrac{150}{500}\\\\=\dfrac{3}{10}=0.3[/tex]

Hence, the correct option is option (c).

A line crosses the y-axis at (0,4) and has a slope of -2. Find an equation for this line.

Answers

Final answer:

The equation of the line with a slope of -2 that crosses the y-axis at (0,4) is y = -2x + 4.

Explanation:

To find the equation of a line that crosses the y-axis at (0,4) with a slope of -2, we can use the slope-intercept form of a linear equation, which is y = mx + b. Here, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Since we are given the y-intercept (0,4), we know b = 4 and we are also given the slope m = -2. Substituting these values into the slope-intercept form gives us the equation:

y = -2x + 4

This equation represents the desired line with a slope of -2 and a y-intercept at 4.

Find the equation of the perpendicular bisector of the segment AB, if A(3, 0) and B(–1, 2). If the perpendicular bisector of AB intercepts the x-axis at point P, what are the lengths of PA and PB?

Answers

Final answer:

To find the perpendicular bisector of segment AB with endpoints A(3, 0) and B(–1, 2), first determine the midpoint M, then the slope of AB, and use the negative reciprocal to get the slope of the bisector. The equation of the perpendicular bisector is y = 2x - 1, which intercepts the x-axis at P(0.5, 0). The lengths of PA and PB are both 2.5 units.

Explanation:

To find the equation of the perpendicular bisector of the segment AB, we first need to find the midpoint of AB, which will lie on the bisector. The coordinates of A(3, 0) and B(–1, 2) give us the midpoint M as follows:

Add the x-coordinates of A and B and divide by 2: (3 + (–1))/2 = 2/2 = 1.

Add the y-coordinates of A and B and divide by 2: (0 + 2)/2 = 2/2 = 1.

So the midpoint M is (1, 1).

Next, the slope of AB is (2 - 0)/(-(1) - 3) = 2/(-4) = -1/2. The slope of the perpendicular bisector will be the negative reciprocal of -1/2, which is 2.

The equation of the line with slope 2 passing through (1, 1) is y - 1 = 2(x - 1). Simplifying, we get y = 2x - 1 as the equation of the perpendicular bisector.

Intercepting the x-axis means y = 0, so to find point P where the bisector meets the x-axis, set y to 0: 0 = 2x - 1, which gives x = 0.5. Therefore, point P is (0.5, 0).

Now to find the lengths of PA and PB, we use the distance formula:

Distance PA = √((3 - 0.5)^2 + (0 - 0)^2) = √(2.5^2) = 2.5.

Distance PB = √(((-1) - 0.5)^2 + (2 - 0)^2) = √(1.5^2 + 2^2) = √(2.25 + 4) = √6.25 = 2.5.

Hence, PA and PB both measure 2.5 units.

Answers

Answer:

The median of this data set is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First sort the list of all the data set from the smallest to the largest

so we have (0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,3,3,5,10)

2) Find the elements in the middle of the list

(0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,3,3,5,10)

When you find an unique number your work is done, but when this happens the median is the average of the two elements in the middle of the sorted list

Hence the median is 1

Answer:  1. {-2, -3}   2. {-5, 5}   3. {-3, 5}

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, factor the equation by finding two numbers whose product is 6 and sum is 5.  Then apply the Zero Product Property by setting each product equal to zero and solving for m.

m² + 5m + 6 = 0

                 ∧

                1 + 6 = 7

                2 + 3 = 5   This works!

        (x + 2)(x + 3) = 0

x + 2 = 0      x + 3 = 0

     x = -2           x = -3

2) Factor out the GCF of 5. Notice the remaining factor is the difference of squares (because the middle term is missing and the first and last terms are perfect squares. Then apply the Zero Product Property by setting each product equal to zero and solving for p.

5p² - 125 = 0

5(p² - 25) = 0

5(p +5)(p - 5) = 0

5 ≠ 0    p+ 5 = 0         p - 5 = 0

                 p = -5              p = 5

3) Factor out the GCF of 2. Factor the equation by finding two numbers whose product is -15 and sum is -2.  Then apply the Zero Product Property by setting each product equal to zero and solving for x.

2x² - 4x - 30 = 0

2(x² - 2 - 15) = 0

              ∧

             1 - 15 = -14

             3 - 5 = -2    This works!

     (x + 3)(x - 5) = 0

x + 3 = 0     x - 5 = 0

     x = -3          x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

because if you are missing a loan payment, you would have a negative report at the risk centers

Answer:

A. missing a loan payment

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever someone wish to apply a loan, lenders would consider his/her credit scores when analyzing the application. A good credit score would increase his/her chance to be qualified for the loan. The higher the score qualifies you for a fair interest rates, and also it would reduce the perceived risk.

An independent-measures research study uses a total of 18 participants to compare two treatment conditions. If the results are used to construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean difference, then the t values will be ±1.746.a) Trueb) False

Answers

Answer:

The answer is false

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample above 30 obs  like this the confidence interval is defined as

X+- t* (s/sqrt(n)) where X is the mean t the tvalue for a given confidence level, n the size of sample and s standar deviation.

To find de appropiate value of t we must see the T table where rows are degrees of freedom and columns significance level

The significance is obtained:

significance = 1 - confidence level = 1 - 0.9 = 0.10

Degrees of freedom (df) for the inteval are

df = n - 1 = 18 - 1 = 17

So we must look for the value of a t with 17 values and significance of 0.10 which in t table is 1.740 not 1.746 ( thats the t for 16 df)

The statement is false because the critical t value for a 90% confidence interval depends on the degrees of freedom, which, for an independent measures study with 18 participants split into two groups, would be 16 (18 participants - 2 groups),

The statement regarding an independent-measures research study comparing two treatment conditions with 18 participants constructing a 90% confidence interval and having t values of ±1.746 is assessed as False. The critical t value is determined by the degrees of freedom, which in an independent-measures t-test, is generally calculated as the total number of participants minus the number of groups. With 18 participants divided into two groups, the degrees of freedom would be 16 (18 - 2), assuming equal group sizes. The exact t value for a 90% confidence interval would need to be looked up in a t distribution table or calculated using statistical software, and it would likely differ from ±1.746 for 16 degrees of freedom.

To accurately determine the critical t value, one would consult a t distribution table or statistical software tailored to the specific degrees of freedom for the study. It's important to note that confidence intervals, t-tests, and their interpretations are crucial in research for estimating the range within which the true population parameter lies and for assessing the significance of the findings, respectively.

[tex]\frac{dD(t)}{D(t)} =-\frac{1}{100}dt \\\int\limits^{D(t)}_{800} {\frac{1}{D(t)} } \, dD(t) =\int\limits^t_0 {t} \, dt \\ln(\frac{D(t)}{800})=-\frac{1}{100}t \\D(t) = 800e^{-\frac{1}{100}t} \\Solving\ D(t) = 0.01* D(0)=0.01*800 =8 \\8 = 800e^{-\frac{1}{100}t} \\ln (\frac{1}{100})=-\frac{1}{100}t \\100 ln 100 = t[/tex]
