Answer:
No, a quadrilateral with the given vertices is not an isosceles trapezoid.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
A(3,3), B(5,3), C(8,1), D(1,1)
Slope formula:
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
Slope of AB=[tex]\frac{3-3}{5-3}=0[/tex]
Slope of BC=[tex]\frac{1-3}{8-5}=\frac{-2}{3}[/tex]
Slope of CD=[tex]\frac{1-1}{1-8}=0[/tex]
Slope of AD=[tex]\frac{1-3}{1-3}=1[/tex]
Slope of AB=Slope of CD
When slopes of two lines are equal then the lines are parallel.
Therefore, AB is parallel to CD.
When one pair of quadrilateral is parallel then the quadrilateral is trapezoid.
[tex]\implies [/tex]ABCD is a trapezoid.
Distance formula:
[tex]\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]
Using the formula
Length of BC=[tex]\sqrt{(8-5)^2+(1-3)^2}[/tex]
Length of BC=[tex]\sqrt{9+4}=\sqrt{13}[/tex] units
Length of AD=[tex]\sqrt{(1-3)^2+(1-3)^2}[/tex]
Length of AD=[tex]\sqrt{4+4}=2\sqrt{2}[/tex]
Length of AD is not equal to length of BC.
Hence, trapezoid is not an isosceles trapezoid.
Use the parametric equations of an ellipse, x=acosθ, y=bsinθ, 0≤θ≤2π , to find the area that it encloses.
Answer:
Area of ellipse=[tex]\pi ab[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
[tex]x=acos\theta[/tex]
[tex]y=bsin\theta[/tex]
[tex]0\leq\theta\leq 2\pi[/tex]
We have to find the area enclose by it.
[tex]x/a=cos\theta, y/b=sin\theta[/tex]
[tex]sin^2\theta+cos^2\theta=x^2/a^2+y^2/b^2[/tex]
Using the formula
[tex]sin^2x+cos^2x=1[/tex]
[tex]\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1[/tex]
This is the equation of ellipse.
Area of ellipse
=[tex]4\int_{0}^{a}\frac{b}{a}\sqrt{a^2-x^2}dx[/tex]
When x=0,[tex]\theta=\pi/2[/tex]
When x=a, [tex]\theta=0[/tex]
Using the formula
Area of ellipse
=[tex]\frac{4b}{a}\int_{\pi/2}^{0}\sqrt{a^2-a^2cos^2\theta}(-asin\theta)d\theta[/tex]
Area of ellipse=[tex]-4ba\int_{\pi/2}^{0}\sqrt{1-cos^2\theta}(sin\theta)d\theta[/tex]
Area of ellipse=[tex]-4ba\int_{\pi/2}^{0} sin^2\theta d\theta[/tex]
Area of ellipse=[tex]-2ba\int_{\pi/2}^{0}(2sin^2\theta)d\theta[/tex]
Area of ellipse=[tex]-2ba\int_{\pi/2}^{0}(1-cos2\theta)d\theta[/tex]
Using the formula
[tex]1-cos2\theta=2sin^2\theta[/tex]
Area of ellipse=[tex]-2ba[\theta-1/2sin(2\theta)]^{0}_{\pi/2}[/tex]
Area of ellipse[tex]=-2ba(-\pi/2-0)[/tex]
Area of ellipse=[tex]\pi ab[/tex]
You are dealt one card from a 52-card deck.
a) Find the odds in favor of getting a red king.
b) Find the odds against getting a red king.
Answer:
(a)So, there are 2 kings in red- one of hearts and the other of diamonds. Therefore, the probability of selecting a red king from a deck of cards= 2/52 or 1/26.
(b) There are 6 red face cards in a 52-card deck (so 46 other cards). PROBABILITIES compare the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes: The PROBABILITY of getting a red face card is 6/52 = 3/26.
The odds in favor of getting a red king will be 1/26. And the odds against getting a red king will be 25/26.
What is probability?Its basic premise is that something will almost certainly happen. The percentage of favorable events to the total number of occurrences.
You are dealt one card from a 52-card deck.
Total events = 52
The odds in favor of getting a red king will be
Favorable events = 2
Then the probability will be
P = 2/52
P = 1/26
The odds against getting a red king will be
q = 1 – P
q = 1 – 1/26
q = 25/26

The radius of a sphere is increasing at a rate of 2 mm/s. How fast is the volume increasing (in mm3/s) when the diameter is 60 mm?
Answer:
22608 mm³/s
Step-by-step explanation:
Applying chain rule,
dV/dt = (dV/dr)(dr/dt)............... Equation 1
Where dV/dr = rate at which the volume is increasing
But,
V = 4πr³/3
Therefore,
dV/dr = 4πr²............... Equation 2
Substitute equation 2 into equation 1
dV/dt = 4πr²(dr/dt).............. Equation 3
From the question,
Given: dr/dt = 2 mm/s, r = 60/2 = 30 mm
Consatant: π = 3.14
Substitute these values into equation 3
dV/dt = 4×3.14×30²×2
dV/dt = 22608 mm³/s
Identify an equation in point-slope from for the line perpendicular to y=-4x-1 that passes through (-2, 4)
Answer:
y - 4 = ¼(x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Point-slope form equation is given as y - b = m(x - a). Where,
(a, b) = a point on the line = (-2, 4)
m = slope = ¼ (sleep of the line perpendicular to y = -4x - 1 is the negative reciprocal of its slope value, -4 which is ¼)
✔️To write the equation, substitute (a, b) = (-2, 4), and m = ¼ into the point-slope equation, y - b = m(x - a).
y - 4 = ¼(x - (-2))
y - 4 = ¼(x + 2)

1. Find the exact value of sin( a−B), given that sin a=−4/5 and cos B=12/13, with a in quadrant III and B in quadrant IV.
2. Find all real numbers in the interval [0,2pi) that satisfy the equation.
3sec^2 x tan x =4tan x
3. Simplify the following trigonometric expressions, using identities as needed:
sin(x)/1−cos(x) + 1−cos(x)/sin(x)
(1) Recall that
sin(x - y) = sin(x) cos(y) - cos(x) sin(y)
sin²(x) + cos²(x) = 1
Given that α lies in the third quadrant, and β lies in the fourth quadrant, we expect to have
• sin(α) < 0 and cos(α) < 0
• sin(β) < 0 and cos(β) > 0
Solve for cos(α) and sin(β) :
cos(α) = -√(1 - sin²(α)) = -3/5
sin(β) = -√(1 - cos²(β)) = -5/13
Then
sin(α - β) = sin(α) cos(β) - cos(α) sin(β) = (-4/5) (12/13) - (-3/5) (-5/13)
==> sin(α - β) = -63/65
(2) In the second identity listed above, multiplying through both sides by 1/cos²(x) gives another identity,
sin²(x)/cos²(x) + cos²(x)/cos²(x) = 1/cos²(x)
==> tan²(x) + 1 = sec²(x)
Rewrite the equation as
3 sec²(x) tan(x) = 4 tan(x)
3 (tan²(x) + 1) tan(x) = 4 tan(x)
3 tan³(x) + 3 tan(x) = 4 tan(x)
3 tan³(x) - tan(x) = 0
tan(x) (3 tan²(x) - 1) = 0
Solve for x :
tan(x) = 0 or 3 tan²(x) - 1 = 0
tan(x) = 0 or tan²(x) = 1/3
tan(x) = 0 or tan(x) = ±√(1/3)
x = arctan(0) + nπ or x = arctan(1/√3) + nπ or x = arctan(-1/√3) + nπ
x = nπ or x = π/6 + nπ or x = -π/6 + nπ
where n is any integer. In the interval [0, 2π), we get the solutions
x = 0, π/6, 5π/6, π, 7π/6, 11π/6
(3) You only need to rewrite the first term:
[tex]\dfrac{\sin(x)}{1-\cos(x)} \times \dfrac{1+\cos(x)}{1+\cos(x)} = \dfrac{\sin(x)(1+\cos(x))}{1-\cos^2(x)} = \dfrac{\sin(x)(1+\cos(x)}{\sin^2(x)} = \dfrac{1+\cos(x)}{\sin(x)}[/tex]
Then
[tex]\dfrac{\sin(x)}{1-\cos(x)}+\dfrac{1-\cos(x)}{\sin(x)} = \dfrac{1+\cos(x)+1-\cos(x)}{\sin(x)}=\dfrac2{\sin(x)}[/tex]
HELP ASAP! I don’t know how to solve this problem nor where to start. Can someone please help me out here?
===============================================
Explanation:
It might help to draw out the picture as shown below. The pool itself (just the water only) is the inner rectangle. The outer rectangle is the pool plus the border of those 1 by 1 tiles.
The pool is a rectangle 90 feet by 80 feet. If we add on the tiles, then we get a larger rectangle that is 90+2 = 92 feet by 80+2 = 82 feet.
We add on 2 since we're adding two copies of "1" on either side of each dimension.
The larger rectangle's area is 92*82 = 7544 square feet
The smaller rectangle's area is 90*80 = 7200 square feet
The difference in areas is 7544-7200 = 344 square feet.
Each 1 by 1 tile is of area 1*1 = 1 sq foot, meaning that 344 tiles will get us the 344 square foot border around the pool.

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
When there is a set of values within parenthesis, and an exponents on the values and on the parenthesis, you multiply the outer exponent with the inner exponent.
When a value has a negative exponent, the value that has the negative exponent will become a fraction and go to the denominator of the fraction (or go immediately to the denominator), or if it is already a fraction, goes to the denominator. If the value that has the negative exponent is in the denominator, the value will go to the numerator. In both instances, the negative exponent will then change to positive.
First, we need to simplify the expression inside the parenthesis.
[tex]y^{\frac{3}{2} } x^{-\frac{1}{2} } --> \frac{y^{\frac{3}{2} } }{x^{\frac{1}{2}} }[/tex]
Now we multiply the 4 to the exponents.

f(x) 3c 3c 6c
Answer:
[tex]c = \frac{1}{12}[/tex]
The mean of the distribution is 0.25.
The variance of the distribution is of 0.6875.
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability density function:
For it to be a probability function, the sum of the probabilities must be 1. The probabilities are 3c, 3c and 6c, so:
[tex]3c + 3c + 6c = 1[/tex]
[tex]12c = 1[/tex]
[tex]c = \frac{1}{12}[/tex]
So the probability distribution is:
[tex]P(X = -1) = 3c = 3\frac{1}{12} = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = 3c = 3\frac{1}{12} = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = 6c = 6\frac{1}{12} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5[/tex]
Mean:
Sum of each outcome multiplied by its probability. So
[tex]E(X) = -1(0.25) + 0(0.25) + 1(0.5) = -0.25 + 0.5 = 0.25[/tex]
The mean of the distribution is 0.25.
Variance:
Sum of the difference squared between each value and the mean, multiplied by its probability. So
[tex]V^2(X) = 0.25(-1-0.25)^2 + 0.25(0 - 0.25)^2 + 0.5(1 - 0.25)^2 = 0.6875[/tex]
The variance of the distribution is of 0.6875.
Give an example of a function with both a removable and a non-removable discontinuity.
Answer:
(x+5)(x-3) / (x+5)(x+1)
Step-by-step explanation:
A removeable discontinuity is always found in the denominator of a rational function and is one that can be reduced away with an identical term in the numerator. It is still, however, a problem because it causes the denominator to equal 0 if filled in with the necessary value of x. In my function above, the terms (x + 5) in the numerator and denominator can cancel each other out, leaving a hole in your graph at -5 since x doesn't exist at -5, but the x + 1 doesn't have anything to cancel out with, so this will present as a vertical asymptote in your graph at x = -1, a nonremoveable discontinuity.

What type of line is PQ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯?
Answer:
median
Step-by-step explanation:
Q is at the midpoint of RS and so PQ is a median
A median is a segment from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side.
We want to define what type of line is PQ (the line that passes through points P and Q) by looking at the given image, one can easily see that the line PQ is a median, now let's explain why.
First, let's analyze the image:
In the image, we can see that P is one vertex of the triangle, and Q is the midpoint of the segment RS (you can see that RQ = 4 and QS = 4) , where R and S are the other two vertexes of the triangle.
Particularly, we can define a median of a triangle as the line that passes through the midpoint of one side of the triangle and by the vertex that does not belong to that side.
With that definition, we can see that PQ is a median because Q is the midpoint of one side of the triangle and P is the vertex that does not belong to that side.

A statistician calculates that 7% of Americans are vegetarians. If the statistician is correct, what is the probability that the proportion of vegetarians in a sample of 403 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%
Answer:
0.0182 = 1.82% probability that the proportion of vegetarians in a sample of 403 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
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.
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]
A statistician calculates that 7% of Americans are vegetarians.
This means that [tex]p = 0.07[/tex]
Sample of 403 Americans
This means that [tex]n = 403[/tex]
Mean and standard deviation:
[tex]\mu = p = 0.07[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.07*0.93}{403}} = 0.0127[/tex]
What is the probability that the proportion of vegetarians in a sample of 403 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%?
Proportion below 7 - 3 = 4% or above 7 + 3 = 10%. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are equal, which means that we find one of them, and multiply by 2.
Probability the proportion is below 4%
p-value of Z when X = 0.04.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{0.04 - 0.07}{0.0127}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.36[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.36[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0091
2*0.0091 = 0.0182
0.0182 = 1.82% probability that the proportion of vegetarians in a sample of 403 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%.

Assume that there is a 8% rate of disk drive failure in a year. a. If all your computer data is stored on a hard disk drive with a copy stored on a second hard disk drive, what is the probability that during a year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working drive?
Answer:
0.9936 = 99.36% probability that during a year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working drive
Step-by-step explanation:
For each disk, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it works, or it does not. The probability of a disk working is independent of any other disk, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
Assume that there is a 8% rate of disk drive failure in a year.
So 100 - 8 = 92% probability of working, which means that [tex]p = 0.92[/tex]
Two disks are used:
This means that [tex]n = 2[/tex]
What is the probability that during a year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working drive?
This is:
[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{2,0}.(0.92)^{0}.(0.08)^{2} = 0.0064[/tex]
[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.0064 = 0.9936[/tex]
0.9936 = 99.36% probability that during a year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working drive
Warren drives his car 330 miles and has an average of a certain speed. If the average speed had been 3 mph more. he could have traveled 352 miles in the same length
of time. What was his average speed?
Keypad
Answer:
45 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
d=distance in miles
r=rate miles/hr
t = time in hours
t = 352/(r+3)
330/r = 352/(r+3)
352r = 330r + 990
22r = 990
r = 45
