A rectangular vegetable garden will have a width that is 3 feet less than the length, and an area of 54square feet. If x represents the length, then the length can be found by solving the equation: x(x-3)=54 What is the length, x, of the garden? The length is blank feet.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 9 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, we have already been given the equation which is x(x-3)=54. Therefore we will find the value of x which will be:

x(x-3)=54

x² - 3x - 54

x² - 9x + 6x - 54

x(x - 9) + 6(x - 9)

Therefore,

(x - 9) = 0

x = 0 + 9

x = 9

The length is 9 feet

The width will be:

x - 3 = 9 - 3 = 6 feet

Exercise 2.2.3: The cardinality of a power set. (a) What is the cardinality of P({1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6})

Answers

Answer:

Cardinality of the power set of the given set = [tex]2^6=64[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Power set is the set of all the possible subsets that can be formed from the given set including the null set and the set itself.

Example set:

{1,2,3}

All the possible subsets of this set:

{}; {1}; {2}; {3}; {1,2,3}; {1,2}; {1,3}; {2,3}

The power set of the above set is written as:

P({ {}, {1}, {2}, {3}, {1,2}, {1,3}, {2,3}, {1,2,3} })

Since the no. of elements in the above power set in this example is 8 therefore its cardinality is 8.

Cardinality of the power set of a given set is expressed by a formula: [tex]2^n[/tex]

where n is the cardinality (no. of elements) of the given set whose power set is to be formed for determining cardinality of the power set.

Hence in the given case, we have  n = 6.

The life of light bulbs is distributed normally. The standard deviation of the lifetime is 15 hours and the mean lifetime of a bulb is 520 hours. Find the probability of a bulb lasting for at most 528 hours. Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

0.7031 = 70.31% probability of a bulb lasting for at most 528 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The standard deviation of the lifetime is 15 hours and the mean lifetime of a bulb is 520 hours.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 15, \mu = 520[/tex]

Find the probability of a bulb lasting for at most 528 hours.

This is the p-value of Z when X = 528. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{528 - 520}{15}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.533[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.533[/tex] has a p-value of 0.7031

0.7031 = 70.31% probability of a bulb lasting for at most 528 hours.

The top and bottom ends of a windshield wiper blade are R = 24 in. and r = 14 in., respectively, from the pivot point. While in operation, the wiper sweeps through 135°. Find the area swept by the blade. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

Answers

Answer:

Area swept by the blade = 448[tex]in^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc the wiper wipes is for 135 degrees angle.

So, find area of sector with radius 24 inches. And the find area of arc with r=14 inches.

Then subtract the area of sector with 14 inches  from area of sector with radius as 24 inches.

So, area of sector with r=24 in =[tex]\frac{135}{360} *\pi *24^{2}[/tex]

Simplify it,

                                                  =216[tex]\pi[/tex]

Now, let's find area of sector with radius 14 inches

Area of sector with r=14 in = [tex]\frac{135}{360} *\pi *14^{2}[/tex]

Simplify it

                                          =73.5[tex]\pi[/tex]

So, area swept by the blade = 216[tex]\pi[/tex] -73.5[tex]\pi[/tex]

Simplify it and use pi as 3.14.....

Area of swept =678.584 - 230.907

                               =447.6769

Round to nearest whole number

So, area swept by the blade = 448[tex]in^{2}[/tex]

Describe how the graph of y = |x - 2| - 5 is a transformation of the graph of y = |x|. Use terms such as "shifted", "reflected", "stretched", or "compressed".

Answers

Answer:

The original graph was shifted 2 units to the left and 5 units down.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = |x|

From this, we go to: y = |x - 2|.

When we want to shift a function f(x) a units to the left, we find f(x - a). So first, the graph was shifted 2 units to the left.

y = |x - 2|.

From this, we go to: y = |x - 2| - 5.

Shifting a function f(x) down b units is the same as finding f(x) - b, so the second transformation was shifting the graph 5 units down.

[Show Workings}

Answers

If the slope of the line y = mx − 4 is  less than the slope of the line y = x − 4, this shows that m will be any values less than 1 i.e. m < 1. This gives a true statement

The slope of a line defines the steepness of such a line. It is the ratio of the rise to the run of a line.

The general formula for calculating an equation of a line is expressed as:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex] where:

m is the slope of the line

Given the equation of the line, [tex]y=x-4[/tex] the slope of the line will be derived through comparison as shown:

[tex]mx=1x\\[/tex]

Divide through by x

[tex]\dfrac{mx}{x} = \dfrac{1x}{x}\\ m=1[/tex]

Hence the slope of the line y = x - 1 is 1.

According to the question, since we are told that the  slope of the line

y = mx − 4 is  less than the slope of the line y = x − 4, this shows that m will be any values less than 1 i.e. m < 1. This gives a true statement

A strawberry farmer in Poteet knows that 1/8 of his strawberries are typically not fit to sell at the market (either because they went bad or are too unusually shaped). The farmer takes a random sample of 156 strawberries to inspect for the upcoming farmer's market and finds that 24 are unfit to sell. If he were to go back and pick 1000 more strawberries to inspect for the market, how would the standard deviation of the sample proportion be affected

Answers

Answer:

It would be smaller.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

The number of the strawberries that are unfit for sell, x = 24

The total number of the strawberries to inspect, n = 156

Total number of the strawberries to be picked = 1000 strawberries

Therefore,

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

  [tex]$=\frac{24}{156}$[/tex]

  = 0.1538

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

  [tex]$=\frac{24}{1000}$[/tex]

  = 0.024

Therefore, the standard deviation of the sample proportion would be smaller.

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{x^2 \sin^2y}{x^2+2y^2} = 0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x,y) = \frac{x^2 \sin^2y}{x^2+2y^2}[/tex]

Required

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} f(x,y)[/tex]

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} f(x,y)[/tex] becomes

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{x^2 \sin^2y}{x^2+2y^2}[/tex]

Multiply by 1

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{x^2 \sin^2y}{x^2+2y^2}\cdot 1[/tex]

Express 1 as

[tex]\frac{y^2}{y^2} = 1[/tex]

So, the expression becomes:

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{x^2 \sin^2y}{x^2+2y^2} \cdot \frac{y^2}{y^2}[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{x^2 y^2}{x^2+2y^2} \cdot \frac{\sin^2y}{y^2}[/tex]

In limits:

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{\sin^2y}{y^2} \to 1[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{x^2 y^2}{x^2+2y^2} *1[/tex]

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{x^2 y^2}{x^2+2y^2}[/tex]

Convert to polar coordinates; such that:

So, we have:

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{(r\cos\theta)^2 (r\sin\theta;)^2}{(r\cos\theta)^2+2(r\sin\theta;)^2}[/tex]

Expand

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{r^4\cos^2\theta\sin^2\theta}{r^2\cos^2\theta+2r^2\sin^2\theta}[/tex]

Factor out [tex]r^2[/tex]

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{r^4\cos^2\theta\sin^2\theta}{r^2(\cos^2\theta+2\sin^2\theta)}[/tex]

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{r^2\cos^2\theta\sin^2\theta}{\cos^2\theta+2\sin^2\theta}[/tex]

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{r^2\cos^2\theta\sin^2\theta}{\cos^2\theta+2\sin^2\theta}[/tex]

Express [tex]2\sin^2 \theta[/tex] as [tex]\sin^2\theta+\sin^2\theta[/tex]

So:

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{r^2\cos^2\theta\sin^2\theta}{\cos^2\theta+\sin^2\theta+\sin^2\theta}[/tex]

In trigonometry:

[tex]\cos^2\theta + \sin^2\theta = 1[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{r^2\cos^2\theta\sin^2\theta}{1+\sin^2\theta}[/tex]

Evaluate the limits by substituting 0 for r

[tex]\frac{0^2 \cdot \cos^2\theta\sin^2\theta}{1+\sin^2\theta}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{0 \cdot \cos^2\theta\sin^2\theta}{1+\sin^2\theta}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{0}{1+\sin^2\theta}[/tex]

Since the denominator is non-zero; Then, the expression becomes 0 i.e.

[tex]\frac{0}{1+\sin^2\theta} = 0[/tex]

So,

[tex]\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{x^2 \sin^2y}{x^2+2y^2} = 0[/tex]
