Answer:
x=15, y=5
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=20
x-y=10
Adding both equations;
(x+x) + (y-y) = 20+10
2x = 30
x = 30/2 = 15
Substitute x=15 into x+y=20
y= 20-x = 20-15= 5

Determine whether the given sequence could be arithmetic. If so, identify the first difference and the next term.
-6, -11, -16, -21, -26.....
Answer:
The first difference is -5. The next term is -31.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you find the difference between -6 and -11, then you get -5.
And, all the other ones also have differences of -5, so basically, the next term is -31.
Thanks! Please mark me Brainliest!
Answer:
It could be arithmeticIf so, then the first difference is -5 and the next term is -31===================================================
Explanation:
Pick any term and subtract off the previous term
term2 - term1 = -11 - (-6) = -11 + 6 = -5term3 - term2 = -16 - (-11) = -16 + 11 = -5term4 - term3 = -21 - (-16) = -21 + 16 = -5term5 - term4 = -26 - (-21) = -26 + 21 = -5No matter what we picked, we end up with the same result which is -5. This is the common difference aka first difference.
If this pattern keeps up forever, then the sequence is arithmetic.
And if the pattern keeps up, then the next term would be
term6 = term5 + (common difference)
term6 = -26 + (-5)
term6 = -31
Note: Adding -5 is the same as subtracting 5.
A researcher wishes to estimate the proportion of adults who have high-speed Internet access. What size sample should be obtained if she wishes the estimate to be within with % confidence if (a) she uses a previous estimate of ? (b) she does not use any prior estimates?
Answer:
732 samples ;
752 samples
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
α = 90% ; M.E = 0.03 ; p = 0.58 ; 1 - p = 1 - 0.58 = 0.42
Using the relation :
n = (Z² * p * (1 - p)) / M.E²
Zcritical at 90% = 1.645
n = (1.645² * 0.58 * 0.42) / 0.03²
n = 0.65918769 / 0.0009
n = 732.43076
n = 732 samples
B.)
If no prior estimate is given, then p = 0.5 ; 1 - p = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5
n = (Z² * p * (1 - p)) / M.E²
Zcritical at 90% = 1.645
n = (1.645² * 0.5 * 0.5) / 0.03²
n = 0.67650625 / 0.0009
n = 751.67361
n = 752 samples
The credit department of Lion's Department Store in Anaheim, California, reported that 30% of their sales are cash, 30% are paid with a credit card, and 40% with a debit card. Twenty percent of the cash purchases, 90% of the credit card purchases, and 60% of the debit card purchases are for more than $50. Ms. Tina Stevens just purchased a new dress that cost $120. What is the probability that she paid cash?
Answer:
Hence the probability that she paid cash is 0.105
Step-by-step explanation:
P(cash) = 0.3
P(credit card ) = 0.3
P(debit card ) = 0.4
P ( more than $50 | cash ) = 0.2
P (more than $50 | credit card ) =0.9
P (more than $ 50 |debit card ) = 0.6
P ( more than $50) = P ( more than $50 | cash )* P (cash) + P (more than $50 credit card ) * P(credit card ) + P (more than $ 50 |debit card )* P(debit card )
= 0.2 * 0.3 + 0.9 * 0.3 + 0.6* 0.4
= 0.57
P ( more than $50) = P ( more than $50 | cash )* P (cash) / P ( more than $50)
= 0.2* 0.3 / 0.57
= 0.105

13 A traffic roundabout has a circular garden
in the centre and two lanes for traffic
encircling the garden. The diameter of the
garden is 16 metres and each lane is 3 metres
wide. Each lane is to be resurfaced. Calculate
the area to be resurfaced. Answer in square
metres to the nearest whole number.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The area to be resurfaced is the area of the
whole circle including garden and lanes minus
the area of the garden.
Area of a circle is (pi)r2
radius of garden is (1/2)diameter = 8 m
Garden area: (pi)82 = 64(pi) m2
Diameter of garden plus traffic lanes is
16 + 2(6) because we add 6 m to both sides
of the diameter of the garden.
Full diameter = 16+12 = 28 m
Full radius = 28/2 = 14 m
Full area: (pi)142 = 196(pi) m2
Area to be resurfaced:
196(pi) - 64(pi) = 132(pi) m2 ≅ 415 m2

Use a table of values to graph the function ƒ(x) = x−−√. Choose the correct graph from the options below.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The square root function's graph is graph (b). This makes logical sense, because, when taking the square root (the principal root in particular), a general rule is that both the input and the output must be positive. Moreover, if one were to create a table of values to find points on the graph of the function, each of the points can be found on graph (b).

twelve people enter a contest. prizes will be given for first second and third place. how many ways can the prizes be given
Answer:
1320 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of contestants = 12
Positions that are n be awarded = First, Second, Third
Number of contestants who could be first = 12 (all 12 contestants)
Number of contestants who could be second = 11 (all 12 contestants - first)
Number of contestants who could be third = 10 (all 12 contestants - first and second )
The number of ways prices can be given :
(1st * 2nd * 3rd) = 12 * 11 * 10 = 1320 ways

Answer:
There is not enough information to determine the mean, the median is 28.
There is not enough information to determine the mean absolute deviation, the interquartile range is 18
Step-by-step explanation:
The box plot given has a skewed distribution, this means that both the mean and median values are not the same. From a box plot, the median value Can be obtained as the point in between the box.
From the box plot given, the marked point in between the box is 28 cm
Hence, Median = 28 cm
The mean cannot be inferred from the skewed box plot.
There is also not enough information to determine the mean absolute deviation ;
The interquartile range:
(Q3 - Q1)
Q3 = upper quartile, the endpoint of the box = 40
Q1 = the starting point of the box = 22
IQR = Q3 - Q1
IQR = 40 - 22 = 18

Can someone explain how to solve this step by step? Thank you
Answer:
x=10
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the Rational Roots Test, we can say that the potential rational roots are
± (1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 90).
Unfortunately, there doesn't really seem to be an easy way to figure out which numbers are actually roots outside of guess and check. Therefore, to solve this, we'll have to go through numbers until we hit something.
To make the process faster, I wrote a Python script as follows:
numbers = [1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 90]
negative_numbers = [i * (-1) for i in numbers]
numbers = numbers + negative_numbers
for i in numbers:
if (i**3 - 10*(i**2) + 9*i-90) == 0:
print(i)
The result comes out as 10, meaning that 10 is our only rational root. Using the Factor Theorem, we can say that because 10 is a root, (x-10) is a factor of the polynomial. Using synthetic division, we can divide (x-10) from the polynomial to get
10 | 1 -10 9 -90
| 10 0 90
_________________
1 0 9 0
Therefore, we can say that
(x³-10x²+9x-90)/(x-10) = (x²+0x+9), so
x³-10x²+9x-90 = (x-10)(x²+9)
As the only solution to x²+9=0 contains imaginary numbers, x=10 is the only solution to x³-10x²+9x-90 = (x-10)(x²+9) = 0
someone find x for me lol
Hi there!
[tex]\large\boxed{x = 60^o}[/tex]
We know:
∠AGB ≅ ∠DGC because they are vertical angles. They both are 90°.
∠AGE ≅ FGC because they are vertical angles, equal 30°.
∠BGF ≅ ∠DGE are vertical angles, both equal x.
All angles sum up to 360°, so:
360° = 90° + 90° + 30° + 30° + x + x
Simplify:
360° = 240° + 2x
Subtract:
120° = 2x
x = 60°

The cost function in a computer manufacturing plant is C(x) = 0.28x^2-0.7x+1, where C(x) is the cost per hour in millions of dollars and x is the number of items produced per hour in thousands. Determine the minimum production cost.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
$562,500 per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost will be a minimum where C'(x) = 0.
C'(x) = 0.56x -0.7 = 0
x = 0.7/0.56 = 1.25
The cost at that production point is ...
C(1.25) = (0.28×1.25 -0.7)1.25 +1 = -0.35×1.25 +1 = 0.5625
The minimum production cost is $562,500 per hour for production of 1250 items per hour.
_____
Additional comment
This is different than the minimum cost per item. This level of production gives a per-item cost of $450. The minimum cost per item is $358.30 at a production level of 1890 per hour.
6. A boy pushes his little brother in a box with a force of 500 N for 324 m How much work is this if the force of
friction acting on the sliding box is (a) 100 N (6) 250. N?
Answer:
(a) 129600 J
(b) 81000 J
Step-by-step explanation:
The work done is given by the product of force and the displacement in the direction of force.
Force, F = 500 N
distance, d = 324 m
(a) friction force, f = 100 N
The work done is
W = (F - f) x d
W = (500 - 100) x 324
W = 129600 J
(b) Friction, f = 250 N
The work done is
W = (F - f) d
W = (500 - 250) x 324
W = 81000 J

The average cost when producing x items is found by dividing the cost function, C(x), by the number of items,x. When is the average cost less than 100, given the cost function is C(x)= 20x+160?
A) ( 2, infinit)
B) (0,2)
C) (-infinit,0) U (2,infinit)
D) (- infinit,0] U [2,infinit)
9514 1404 393
Answer:
A) (2, ∞) . . . . or C) (-∞, 0) ∪ (2, ∞) if you don't think about it
Step-by-step explanation:
We want ...
C(x)/x < 100
(20x +160)/x < 100
20 +160/x < 100 . . . . . separate the terms on the left
160/x < 80 . . . . . . . subtract 20
160/80 < x . . . . . multiply by x/80 . . . . . assumes x > 0
x > 2 . . . . . . simplify
In interval notation this is (2, ∞). matches choice A
__
Technically (mathematically), we also have ...
160/80 > x . . . . and x < 0
which simplifies to x < 0, or the interval (-∞, 0).
If we include this solution, then choice C is the correct one.
_____
Comment on the solution
Since we are using x to count physical items, we want to assume that the practical domain of C(x) is whole numbers, where x ≥ 0, so this second interval is not in the domain of C(x). That is, the average cost of a negative number of items is meaningless.
There are 84 students in a speech contest. Yesterday, 1/4 of them gave their speeches. Today, 3/7 of the remaining students gave their speeches. How many students still haven't given their speeches?
Answer:
36
Step-by-step explanation:
Total students un the contest = 84
Number of students who gave their speech yesterday:-
[tex] \frac{1}{4} \: of \: total \\ = \frac{1}{4} \times 84 \\ = 21[/tex]
so 21 students gave their speech yesterday
remaining students = 84 - 21= 63
Number of students who gave their speech today:-
[tex] \frac{3}{7} \: of \: remaining \\ = \frac{3}{7} \times 63 \\ = 27[/tex]
Number of students who have given their speech:-
= 21 + 27
= 48
Number of students who still haven't given their speech :-
= total - 48
= 84 - 48
= 36

Answer:
n = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions
tan theta = opp /adj
tan 30 = n / 2 sqrt(3)
2 sqrt(3) tan 30 = n
2 sqrt(3) * sqrt(3)/3 = n
2 = n
We have to find,
The required value of n.
Now we can,
Use the trigonometric functions.
→ tan(θ) = opp/adj
Let's find the required value of n,
→ tan (θ) = opp/adj
→ tan (30) = n/2√3
→ n = 2√3 × tan (30)
→ n = 2√3 × √3/3
→ n = 2√3 × 1/√3
→ [n = 2]
Thus, the value of n is 2.
it takes engineer 3 hrs to drive to his brother's house at an average of 50 miles per hour. if he takes same route home, but his average speed of 60 miles per hour, what is the time, in hours, that it takes him to drive home?
Answer:
t2 = 2.5 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance is the same.
d = r * t
The rates and times are different so
t1 = 3 hours
t2 = X
r1 = 50 mph
r2 = 60 mph
r1 * t1 = r2*t2
50 * 3 = 60 * t2
150 = 60 * t2
150 / 60 = t2
t2 = 2.5

describe how you could use the point-slope formula to find the equation of a line that is perpendicular to a given line and passes through a given point
Answer:
Using the slope intercept formula, we can see the slope of line p is ¼. Since line k is perpendicular to line p it must have a slope that is the negative reciprocal. (-4/1) If we set up the formula y=mx+b, using the given point and a slope of (-4), we can solve for our b or y-intercept. In this case it would be 17.
