A straight line is drawn through the points A(1,1) and B(5,-2). Calculate the gradient

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The line passes through the two points which are A(1,1) and B(5,-2) . We know that the slope of the line passing through two points is ,

[tex]\implies Slope =\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\implies Slope =\dfrac{ -2-1}{5-1}\\\\\implies Slope =\dfrac{-3}{4} \\\\\implies \underline{\underline{ Slope (m) =\dfrac{-3}{4}}}[/tex]

Hence the slope of the line is -3/4 .

What are the maximum and minimum of the function f(x) = 0.9 I -(x - 5) I + 7 ? A. Maximum at (5,7) and minimum at (0,0) B. Minimum at (5,7) and no maximum C. Minimum at (0,0) and no maximum D. Maximum at (5,7) and no minimum

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Minimum = (5,7)[/tex]

No maximum

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x) = 0.9|-(x - 5)| + 7[/tex]

Solving (a): The minimum

The minimum is when the absolute parameter gives 0

i.e.

[tex]0.9|-(x - 5)| =0[/tex]

Divide both sides by 0.9

[tex]|-(x - 5)| =0[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]|-x + 5| =0[/tex]

Remove absolute sign

[tex]-x + 5 =0[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]x = 5[/tex]

Then the y value is:

[tex]f(x) = 0.9|-(x - 5)| + 7[/tex]

Recall that: [tex]0.9|-(x - 5)| =0[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]f(x) = 0 + 7[/tex]

[tex]f(x) = 7[/tex]

Hence, the minimum is at: [tex](5,7)[/tex]

Since the minimum is at [tex](5,7)[/tex], then the graph will open upwards.

Hence. the function has no maximum; i.e.

[tex]Maximum = (\infty,\infty)[/tex]

Circle W has a radius of 20 in and right central angle, ZVWX. Find the length of vx. Leave your answer in terms of pi.

Answers

Answer:

The length of the arc is 10 pi

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, the length of an arc is calculated as;

theta/360 * 2 * pi * r

theta represents the central angle subtended by the arc which is a right angle according to the question (a right angle is 90 degrees)

r is the circle radius which is 20 inches

so we have the length of the arc as;

90/360 * 2 * pi * 20 = 40 pi/4 = 10 pi

Suppose you had been in charge of designing the study. What sample size would be needed to construct a margin of error of 2% with 95% confidence

Answers

Answer:

A sample size of 2401 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is given by:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

What sample size would be needed to construct a margin of error of 2% with 95% confidence?

This is M for which n = 0.02.

Supposing we have no estimate for the true proportion, we use [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex].

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.02 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.02\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.5}{0.02}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*0.5}{0.02})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 2401[/tex]

A sample size of 2401 is needed.

In right ΔDEF, DF = 20, m∠ F = 90˚, EF = 17. Which of the following is true? Select all that apply

Answers

Answer:

option 1

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not sure, what your are asking about.

in your text you define the length of DF (20), but the answer options (only 2 visible) also specify DF but differently.

so ... ?

when you said DF=20, did you actually mean DE ?

under that assumption

DE = 20 = Hypotenuse of the right-angled triangle (the opposite side of the 90 degree angle).

EF = 17

based on Pythagoras

c² = a² + b²

we have here now

20² = 17² + DF²

400 = 289 + DF²

DF² = 400 - 289 = 111

DF = sqrt(111)

[tex]x=12,\\y=12\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In any 30-60-90 triangle, the side lengths are in the ratio [tex]x:x\sqrt{3}:2x[/tex], where [tex]2x[/tex] is the hypotenuse, or longest side, of the triangle and [tex]x[/tex] is the side opposite to the 30 degree angle.

In the given 30-60-90 triangle, the longest side (hypotenuse) is marked as 24. Since [tex]x[/tex] is opposite to the 30 degree angle,

Therefore, we have:

[tex]x=\frac{24}{2},\\x=\boxed{12}[/tex]

Based on our side length ratio [tex]x:x\sqrt{3}:2x[/tex], [tex]y[/tex] is then:

System of Equations

Answers

Answer:

([tex]\frac{-7}{3}[/tex], [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex])

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the following system of equations:

-3x-3y=3

-5x+y=13

and we need to find the solution (the point at which the 2 lines intersect)  

let's solve this by substitution, where we will set one variable equal to an expression containing the other variable, and then substitute that expression into the other equation to solve for the variable that the expression from earlier contains, and then use the value of the solved variable to find the value of the first variable

in the second equation, add 5x to both sides to isolate y by itself

y=5x+13

now substitute 5x+13 as y in -3x-3y=3

-3x-3(5x+13)=3

do the distributive property

-3x-15x-39=3

combine like terms

-18x-39=3

add 39 to both sides

-18x=42

divide both sides by -18

x=[tex]\frac{-7}{3}[/tex]

now we need to find y

remember: y=5x+13

substitute [tex]\frac{-7}{3}[/tex] as x in y=5x+13

y=5([tex]\frac{-7}{3}[/tex])+13

multiply

y=[tex]\frac{-35}{3}[/tex]+13

add

y=[tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

So the answer is x=[tex]\frac{-7}{3}[/tex], y=[tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]. As a point, it's ([tex]\frac{-7}{3}[/tex], [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex])

Alvin is 7 years older than Elga. The sum of their ages is 79. What is Elga's age?
39 уга
years old
?

Answers

Answer:

36 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = Elga's age

Alvin's age = x + 7

Sum of their ages = 79

Sum of their ages = Alvin's age + Elga's age

79 = (x + 7) + x

79 = x + 7 + x

79 = 2x + 7

79 - 7 = 2x

72 = 2x

x = 72/2

x = 36

Elga's age = x = 36 years

Alvin's age = x + 7

= 36 + 7

= 43 years
