A university student spends his summer months in his home town, where he works for a local microbrewery during the evening hours. In the late morning, he attends the local community college, where he takes summer courses that he knows will transfer back to his school. Although he finds the courses just as challenging as at his regular university, he does not worry about his summer grades affecting his 3.2 (out of 4.0) grade point average, because his university only accepts the transfer credits. As long as he receives C grades or better, he maintains his current grade point average. Which theory suggests that the student will work only as hard as necessary to earn a C grade

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Expectancy theory

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that as long as he receives C grades or better, he maintains his current grade point average.

This means that;

There is a large tendency for him to work just hard enough to earn a c grade.

This depicts vrooms expectancy theory of motivation which is defined as a theory whereby a person or persons will act in a particular way just for the sake of what they will gain from exhibiting that particular selected behavior instead of others.

Help with this question please!

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

6cos^2(x) + 7cos(x) +2 = 0

Call cos(x) = y to change this to something a little bit more familiar.

6y^2 + 7y + 2 =0

This equation is a quadratic. Solve it first. Then we'll go back to solving for cos(x)

This equation factors into 2 possible answers

(3y + 2)(2y + 1) = 0

3y + 2  = 0

3y = - 2

y = - 2/3

2y + 1 = 0

2y = - 1

y = - 1/2

Now let's start with

cos(x) = - 1/2

That means that x is in quadrant two or three.

cos-1(1/2) = 60 degrees.

Quad 2: x = 180 - 60 =  120

Quad 3: x = 180 + 60 =  240

Now cos(x) = - 2/3

cos-1(2/3) = 48.19

Quad 2: x = 180 - 48.19 = 131.81

Quad 3: x  = 180 + 48.19 = 228.19

Given that the two triangles are similar, solve for x if AU = 20x + 108, UB = 273, BC = 703, UV = 444, AV = 372 and AC = 589. You must show all of your work to receive credit.

PLSSS SHOW WORK <3

Answers

Answer:

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find the ratios between the two triangles

We'll use AV and AC

372 ÷ 589 = 12/19

All of the sides of the smaller triangle are 12/19 of the bigger triangle

Now let's find x

We know that AU + UB = AB

So it's 20x + 108 + 273 = AB

12/19 of a bigger triangle side equals a small triangle side

(12/19)AB = AU

For this equation multiply both sides by 19/12 to isolate AB

(12/19)AB x 19/12 = AU x 19/12

AB = (19/12)AU

Now we have this

20x + 108 + 273 = (19/12)(20x + 108)

20x + 381 = (19/12)(20x + 108)

Distribute the 19/12

20x + 381 = 95/3x + 171

Move all like terms to one side

20x + 381 = 95/3x + 171

       - 171                 - 171

20x + 210 = 95/3x

- 20x           - 20x

Don't forget about common denominators

210 = 95/3x - 60/3x

210 = 35/3x

Multiply both sides by 3

210 x 3 = 35/3x x 3

630 = 35x

Divide both sides by 35

630/35 = 35x/35

x = 18

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{20x+108}{20x+381}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{372}{589}[/tex]

589( 20x + 108 ) = 372( 20x + 381 )

11780x + 63612 = 7440x + 141732

4340x = 78120

x = 18

-8n+34=6(5+4n) help please​

Answers

Answer:

n=1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

-8n+34=6(5+4n)

We move all terms to the left:

-8n+34-(6(5+4n))=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-8n-(6(4n+5))+34=0

We calculate terms in parentheses: -(6(4n+5)), so:

6(4n+5)

We multiply parentheses

24n+30

Back to the equation:

-(24n+30)

We get rid of parentheses

-8n-24n-30+34=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-32n+4=0

We move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right

-32n=-4

n=-4/-32

n=1/8

Answer:

n= 0.125 or 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Distrubute 6 into (5+4n). It should give you 30+24n.

The equation should now look like this: -8n+34=30+24n.

Swap -8n with 30, giving -30+34=8n+24n. Add the numbers and the pronumerals together.

Now it will look like 4=32n. Divide the numbers, but unfortunately the number is small so the answer will have to be a decimal or a fraction. So it's 0.125 or 1/8.

Your neighbor pays $40 to have her lawn mowed and always adds a 15% tip. You and your friend decide to mow the lawn together and split the earnings evenly.
How much will each of you make?

Answers

Answer:

$23

Step-by-step explanation:

A 15% tip on $40 is $6. The total you and your friend will receive is $46. When you split that evenly, you will each receive $23.

Cost of Mowing = $40

Tip = 15%

= 15/100×40

= $6

So you get $40 + $6

= $46

When you divide it in 2 people

= 46/2

= $23

Therefore each of you will make $23

Step-by-step explanation:

Prove that:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{\sin^2x}-\frac{1}{\tan^2x}=1[/tex]

Recall that by definition:

[tex]\displaystyle \tan x=\frac{\sin x}{\cos x}[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]\displaystyle \tan^2x=\left (\frac{\sin^2x}{\cos^2x}\right)^2=\frac{\sin^2x}{\cos^2x}[/tex]

Substitute [tex]\displaystyle \tan^2x=\frac{\sin^2x}{\cos^2x}[/tex] into [tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{\sin^2x}-\frac{1}{\tan^2x}=1[/tex]:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{\sin^2x}-\frac{1}{\frac{\sin^2x}{\cos^2x}}=1[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{\sin^2x}-\frac{\cos^2x}{\sin^2x}=1[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1-\cos^2x}{\sin^2x}=1[/tex]

Recall the following Pythagorean Identity:

[tex]\sin^2x+\cos^2x=1[/tex] (derived from the Pythagorean Theorem)

Subtract [tex]\cos^2x[/tex] from both sides:

[tex]\sin^2=1-\cos^2x[/tex]

Finish by substituting [tex]\sin^2=1-\cos^2x[/tex] into [tex]\displaystyle \frac{1-\cos^2x}{\sin^2x}=1[/tex]:

PLEASE HELP!!! very confused

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertices lie on the x-axis, as is determined by their coordinates. This makes the center of this hyperbola (0, 0) because the center is directly between the vertices. The fact that the foci also lie on the x-axis tells us that this is the main axis. What this also tells us is which way the hyperbola "opens". This one opens to the left and the right as opposed to up and down. The standard form for this hyperbola is:

[tex]\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}-\frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1[/tex] and so far we have that h = 0 and k = 0.

By definition, a is the distance between the center and the vertices. So a = 5, and a-squared is 25. So we're getting there. Now here's the tricky part.

The expressions for the foci are (h-c, k) and (h+c, k). Since we know the foci lie at +/-13, we can use that to solve for c:

If h+c = 13 and h = 0, then

0 + c = 13 and c = 13.

We need that c value to help us find b:

[tex]c^2=a^2+b^2[/tex] and

[tex]13^2=5^2+b^2[/tex] and

[tex]169=25+b^2[/tex] and

[tex]144=b^2[/tex] so

b = 12. Now we're ready to fill in the equation:

Answer:

B=.5*8*6=.5*48=24

h = 8

P=10+6+8=24

Surface area =2*24+24*8=48+192=240

Step-by-step explanation:

The base is a triangle, and the area of a triangle is 1/2 base (or width) times height (or length). In this case, base is 8 and height is 6, so the area can be found either by multiplying .5*8*6 or by dividing 8*6 by 2, either of which will give you the same answer of B=24.

Height is given, h=8.

Perimeter is simply the sum of the sides, which are given, so the perimeter is 8+6+10=24.

Option C=60/100=60%

Answer:

the first and the last option

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first option 3/5 of the rectangle are filled in. if you divide 3 by 5, you will get 0.6, which when converted in to percent is equal to 60%

3/5 = 0.6

0.6 = 60%

*to convert decimals into percent, you just have to move the decimal point 2 places to the right and add the present sign*

in the second option 5 out of the 10 rectangles inside the square are filled in. that means that 5/10 of the square are filled in, the model shows 50%

5/10 = 1/2 = 0.5 = 50%

in the third model 6 out of the 10 rows in the square are filled in. that means that 6/10 of the square are filled in which is equal to 60%

6/10 = 0.6 = 60%

Stock in company A decreased by 24%
This means the new value of stock for company A became;
(100-24)/100 *$7200
76/100*$7200
0.76*7200 =$5472
Stock in company B decreased by 20%
This means the new value of stock for company B became;
(100-20)/100 *$3510
80/100*$3510
0.8*$3510
$2808
Original investors stock value was = $7200+$3510 =$10710
New investors stock value is = $5472+$2808=$8280
Decrease in value of stock = $10710-$8280 =$2430
percentage decrease in stock value = decrease in stock/original value of stock *100%
