A survey result shows that cell phone usage among teenagers rose from 63% in 2006 to 71% in 2008.
Of the following choices, which statement about cell phone use among teenagers is true?
a. Cell phone usage rose by 11.2 percentage points.
b. Cell phone usage rose by 12.7 percentage points.
c. Cell phone usage rose by 12.7%.
d. Cell phone usage rose by 8%.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

d. Cell phone usage rose by 8%.

Explanation:

71 - 63 = 8

Answer 2

The statement that is true about percentage increase in cell phone use among teenagers is; c. Cell phone usage rose by 12.7%.

How to calculate percentage increase?

We are given;

Percentage of teenagers using cell phone in 2006 = 63%

Percentage of teenagers using cell phone in 2008 = 71%

Thus;

Percentage increase = (71% - 63%)/63%

Percentage increase = 12.7%

Calculating area of rectangle.

Length (cm) 20.70 20.74
Width (cm) 10.44 10.46
Area (cm2) ________ ________

Required:
Why might two students have different calculated areas when measuring the same rectangle?

Answers

Answer:

Your measurements; Area = 216.108 cm²

Another student's measurements; Area = 216.9404 cm²

- Difference in area could be as a result of human error or perhaps that they made use of different measuring tools.

Step-by-step explanation:

For Your measurements;

Length of rectangle = 20.70 cm

Width of rectangle = 10.44 cm

Area of rectangle is given by; A = length × width = 20.7 × 10.44 = 216.108 cm²

For Another student's measurements;

Length of rectangle = 20.74 cm

Width of rectangle = 10.46 cm

Area = 20.74 × 10.46

Area = 216.9404 cm²

The areas they both obtained are not of equal values and this could be as a result of human error or perhaps that they used different measuring tools.

Can y’all help me on question 11?!

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is choice C.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of the arrow, we must add together the areas of the rectangle and the triangle that make up the arrow.  The rectangle has a length of 10 inches and a width of 4 inches, and the triangle has a base of 8 inches and a height of 2 inches.  Using this information, we can plug numbers into the following formula:

Area of arrow = area of rectangle + area of triangle

Area of arrow = (10*4)+(1/2*8*2)

Area of arrow = 40 inches squared + 8 inches squared

Area of arrow = 48 inches squared

Therefore, the correct answer is option C, 48 square units (in this case, inches).

1:prove that the tangent at the point (1,-2) to the circle x²+y²=5 also touches the circle x²+y²-8x+6y+20=0 .Also find the point of contact.
2:find the length of tangent to the circle
3x²+3y²-7x-6y=12 drawn from (6,-7)​

Answers

#1

Circle 1 has center at (0, 0)

The tangent passes through the center and point (1, -2).

Equation of tangent at (1, -2):

x*1 + y*(-2) = 5x - 2y = 5x = 2y + 5

If the same line is tangent to circle 2 then they have one common point.

Solve the system:

x = 2y + 5x² + y² - 8x + 6y + 20 = 0

Substitute x:

(2y + 5)² + y² - 8(2y + 5) + 6y + 20 = 04y² + 20y + 25 - 16y - 40 + 6y + 20 = 05y² + 10y + 5 = 0y² + 2y + 1 = 0(y + 1)² = 0y + 1 = 0y = -1 ⇒ x = 2(-1) + 5 = -2 + 5 = 3

We see only one point of contact, (3, -1), this proves the line is tangent to circle 2 as well.

#2

Given circle:

3x² + 3y² - 7x - 6y = 12 and external point (6, -7).

Rewrite the equation of the circle as:

3x² + 3y² - 7x - 6y = 12x² + y² - 7/3x - 2y = 4x² - 2*7/6x + 49/36 + y² - 2y + 1 = 4 + 49/36 + 1(x - 7/6)² + (y - 1)² = 229/36

The center is (7/6, 1) the radius is √229/36

The length of the tangent t is the leg of the right triangle with another leg r being the radius and the hypotenuse d being the distance between the center and the external point:

t² = d² - r²t² = (6 - 7/6)² + (-7 - 1)² - 229/36t² = 36 - 14 + 49/36 + 64 - 229/36t² = 86 - 180/36t² = 81t = 9

Answers

Answer:

-25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

First she descends 5 feet below sea level

She then descends the SAME DISTANCE ( so 5 feet ) 4 MORE TIMES

So feet descended = 4 * 5 + 5

4 * 5 = 20

20 + 5 = 25

Her final elevation will be -25 feet

In 2006 the number of tickets sold was 210.
The ratio Number of adult tickets: Number of student tickets was 23:19.
How
many
adult tickets were sold?

Answers

Answer:

115

Step-by-step explanation:

There were 115 adult tickets were sold.

What is ratio?

A ratio shows how many times one number contains another. For example, if there are eight oranges and six lemons in a bowl of fruit, then the ratio of oranges to lemons is eight to six.

Given that, the number of tickets sold was 210. The ratio Number of adult tickets: Number of student tickets was 23:19.

Let the number of tickets sold for adults be 23x and for students be 19x

Therefore, 23x+19x = 210

42x = 210

x = 210/42

x = 5

So,  Number of adult tickets = 5x23 = 115

Hence, There were 115 adult tickets were sold.

Executives from Six Flags, a well-known amusement park chain, had interest in constructing a Six Flags theme park in a location near Ames city limits. Experts believed that approximately 15% of the surrounding population would be interested in becoming season ticket holders. A random sample of 500 residents of Story County was collected (of the approximately 80,000 residents of Story County). Of the 500 people sampled, 124 said that they would be interested in purchasing season tickets to a Six Flags in Ames. The mean of the sampling distribution for the sample proportion when taking samples of size 500 from this population is equal to ___________.

Answers

Answer:

The mean of the sampling distribution for the sample proportion when taking samples of size 500 from this population is equal to 0.248.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Of the 500 people sampled, 124 said that they would be interested in purchasing season tickets to a Six Flags in Ames.

This means that [tex]p = \frac{124}{500} = 0.248[/tex]

The mean of the sampling distribution for the sample proportion when taking samples of size 500 from this population is equal to

By the Central Limit Theorem, it is equal to the sample proportion of 0.248.

Answer:

b.) a = -91.11 b = 2.22

c.) David scored 124, nancy scored 84.27

David scored higher

Step-by-step explanation:

for those in the 3rd grade

mean u = 67

s = 10

we used the z formula

[tex]z=\frac{x-u}{s}[/tex]

[tex]z=\frac{x-67}{10}[/tex]

we have the new score

u = 100

s = 20

we use this formula [tex]z*s+u[/tex]

[tex][\frac{x-67}{10} ]20\\[/tex] + 100

multiply through by 20

[tex][\frac{20x-1340}{10} ] +100[/tex]

dividing the bracket by 10

= [tex]2x-134+100[/tex]

= [tex]2x-34[/tex]

from this solution above,

a = -34 and b = 2

b.)

we solve for those in the 6th grade

u = 86

s = 9

[tex]\frac{x-86}{9}[/tex]

for new score,

y = 100

s = 20

[tex][\frac{x-86}{9} ]20+100[/tex]

[tex]2.22x-191.11+100\\= 2.22x - 91.11[/tex]

from this solution

a = -91.11

b = 2.22

c.) if David scored 79

[tex]= 2(x)-34[/tex]

= 2(79) - 34

= 158 - 34

= 124

if nancy scored 79

= 2.22(79) - 91.11

= 175.38 - 91.11

= 84.27

from these scores we can see that David scored higher in his grade
