Answers

Answer 1

Given:

A line contains the points R(-1, 8), S(1, 4) and T(6, y).

To find:

The value of y.

Solution:

Three points are collinear if:

[tex]x_1(y_2-y_3)+x_2(y_3-y_2)+x_3(y_1-y_2)=0[/tex]

A line contains the points R(-1, 8), S(1, 4) and T(6, y). It means, these points are collinear.

[tex]-1(4-y)+1(y-8)+6(8-4)=0[/tex]

[tex]-4+y+y-8+48-24=0[/tex]

[tex]2y+12=0[/tex]

Subtract 12 from both sides.

[tex]2y=-12[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2.

[tex]y=\dfrac{-12}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y=-6[/tex]

Therefore, the value of y is -6.

find all points (x,y) that are 13 units away from the point (2,7) and that lie on the line x-2y=10

Answers

Answer:

(14,2) and (-6/5,-28/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance, d, from two points (x,y) and another point (a,b) can be calculated using

d=sqrt((x-a)^2+(y-b)^2).

Our point (a,b) is (2,7) and d=13.

Making substitutions:

13=sqrt((x-2)^2+(y-7)^2)

We are also given the relation between x and y is given as x-2y=10.

Adding 2y to both sides gives: x=10+2y

Make this insertion into our equation:

13=sqrt((10+2y-2)^2+(y-7)^2)

Simplify inside:

13=sqrt((8+2y)^2+(y-7)^2)

Square both sides:

169=(8+2y)^2+(y-7)^2

Expand binomial squares:

169=64+32y+4y^2+y^2-14y+49

Combine like terms:

169=5y^2+18y+113

Subtract 169 on both sides:

0=5y^2+18y-56

We could try to factor

0=(5y+28)(y-2)

So y=2 or y=-28/5

Recall x=10+2y

So if y=2, then x=10+2(2)=10+4=14.

So if y=-28/5, then x=10+2(-28/5)=10+(-56/5)

=50/5 +-56/5

=-6/5.

So two points satisfying given criteria is

(14,2) and (-6/5,-28/5).

Answer:

C.  a1 = -8

an = an-1 * 5/2  for n >1

Step-by-step explanation:

-8, -20, -50, –125, 625,...

We need to find the common ratio

Take the second  term and divide by the first term

-20/-8 = 5/2

Take the third term and divide by the second term

-50/-20 = 5/2

The common ratio is 5/2

A geometric sequence is

an = a1 * r^(n-1)

an = -8 *(5/2)^(n-1)

We can also write a recursive formula

a1 = -8

an = an-1 * 5/2  for n >1

Answers

Solution :

a). The test is a left tailed test.

b). The sample proportion is :

[tex]$\hat p = \frac{x}{n}$[/tex]

[tex]$\hat p = \frac{17}{258}$[/tex]

  = 0.065

Determining the Z statistics using the formula :

[tex]$Z=\frac{\hat p - p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}}$[/tex]

[tex]$Z=\frac{0.065 - 0.11}{\sqrt{\frac{0.11(1-0.11)}{258}}}$[/tex]

   = -2.31

∴ Z statistics value is -2.31

c). Using the excel function, the P-value is :

P-value = Normsdist(-2.31)

             = 0.0104441

d). The null hypothesis is [tex]$H_0: P = 0.11$[/tex]

    The level of significance is 0.01

    We fail to reject the null hypothesis as the P value is less than or equal to the significant level.

The point p=(2/5,y) lies on the unit circle below what is the value of y in simplest form

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

distance of (1,0) from the origin is,

√{(1-0)²+(0-0)²}

= √1

= 1

So the radius of the circle is 1,

now for the point (2/5,y) distance from origin should be the same since it's the radius

so,

√{(2/5-0)²+(y-0)²} = 1

or, √(4/25+y²)=1

or, 4/25+y²=1

or, y² = 1-4/25

or, y²=21/25

or, y=√(21/25)

or, y=√21/5

so, the simplest form of y is,

Consider a credit card with a balance of $7000 and an APR of 16.5 %. If you want to make monthly payments in order to pay off the balance in 1 year, what is the total amount you will pay? Round your answer to the nearest cent, if necessary.​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $7641.24

Step-by-step explanation:

The amortization formula tells the payment amount.

  A = P(r/n)/(1 -(1 +r/n)^(-nt))

where principal P is paid off in t years with n payments per year at interest rat r.

Using the given values, we find ...

  A = $7000(0.165/12)/(1 -(1 +0.165/12)^-12) = $7000×0.01375/(1 -1.01375^-12)

  A = $636.77

The total of 12 such payments is ...

  $636.77 × 12 = $7641.24

You will pay a total of about $7641.24.

_____

Additional comment

Since the payment amount is rounded down, the actual payoff will be slightly more. Usually, the lender will round interest and principal to the nearest cent on each monthly statement. The final payment will likely be a few cents more than the monthly payment shown here.

Answers

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

an area is always calculated by multiplying 2 dimensions.

when changing the dimensions, then the change factors for EACH dimension go into the calculation too.

therefore, when both dimensions of an area are enlarged 4 times, then the area is enlarged 4×4 = 16 times.

this just propagates to the whole surface area of an object, as each individual area of the overall surface area is enlarged by the same factor. and so, the sum of all the individual areas (= altogether the surface area of the object) is also enlarged in total by the same factor.

just think

16×a + 16×b + 16×c ... = 16×(a+b+c+...)
