Answer:

  a) 230

  b) 300

  c) 2×10^-2

  d) 1.1×10^-6

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 0.26 × 890 ≈ 1/4 × 900 ≈ 225 ≈ 230

b) 1.95/(.67×10^-2) ≈ 2/(2/3)×10^2 ≈ 300

c) 2010×10^-5 ≈ 2×10^3×10^-5 = 2×10^-2

d) 9.98×10^-4/(9×10^2) = 9.98/9×10^(-4-2) ≈ 1.1×10^-6

YMMV depending on how you do the rounding and approximate multiplication and division.

The first one can be done multiple ways. For most accurate results, increasing one number while decreasing the other is recommended. (You don't want to compute 0.3×900, for example.)

A stockbroker has kept a daily record of the value of a particular stock over the years and finds that prices of the stock form a normal distribution with a mean of $8.52 with a standard deviation of $2.38. The stock price beyond which 0.05 of the distribution falls is _________.

Answers

Answer:

$12.43

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Mean = $8.52

Standard deviation, = $2.38

Stock price which falls beyond 0.05 of the distribution is at the 95th percentile

The 95th percentile distribution has a Pvalue of 1.645 (standard normal table)

We obtain the value of x, with z = 1.645

Using the Zscore relation :

Zscore = (score - mean) / standard deviation

1.645 = (score - 8.52) / 2.38

Cross multiply :

1.645 * 2.38 = score - 8.52

3.9151 = score - 8.52

Score = 8.52 + 3.9151

Score = $12.4351

Stock price beyond 0.05 is $12.43

A student uses a clinometer to measure the angle of elevation of a sign that marks the point on a tower that is 45 m above the ground. The angle of elevation is 32° and the student holds the clinometer 1.3 m above the ground. He then measures the angle of elevation of the top of the tower as 47º. Sketch and label a diagram to represent the information in the problem. Determine the height of the tower to the nearest tenth of a metre​

Answers

Answer: [tex]75\ m[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The tower is 45 m high and Clinometer is set at 1.3 m above the ground

From the figure, we can write

[tex]\Rightarrow \tan 32^{\circ}=\dfrac{43.7}{x}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{43.7}{\tan 32^{\circ}}\\\\\Rightarrow x=69.93\ m[/tex]

Similarly, for [tex]\triangle ACD[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \tan 47^{\circ}=\dfrac{43.7+y}{x}\\\\\Rightarrow 69.93\times \tan 47^{\circ}=43.7+y\\\\\Rightarrow 74.99=43.7+y\\\Rightarrow y=31.29\ m[/tex]

Height of the tower is [tex]43.7+31.29\approx 75\ m[/tex]

What calculation will give us the estimated volume of fuel that remains in Carson's tank by the end of the drive, in liters?

Answers

Answer:

The complete question can be found online.

The missing information is:

Carson drove a total distance of 120km, he initially has 30L of fuel on his tank, and his car efficiency is 100 cm^3/km

Remember that 1000cm^3 = 1 L

then:

100cm^3 = 0.1L

This means that he uses 0.1 L per kilometer.

The equation that shows how many liters of fuel he will have is:

initial fuel - consumed fuel.

We know that the initial fuel is 30 liters.

And the consumed fuel will be the amount of fuel he used to drive the 120 km

Remember that for each km, he consumes 0.1 L of fuel.

Then for the 120km he used 120 times 0.1 L of fuel, so he used a total of:

120*0.1 = 12 L of fuel

Then the remaining fuel in the tank is:

30 L - 12 L = 18L

There are 18 L of fuel in the tank.

Answer:

Should be 30-100/1000*120

If a apple cost d dollars, which of the following expressions gives the cost for 20 apples in dollars?

Answers

Answer:

$ 20d

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each Apple costs d dollars , therefore 20 will cost , $ 20d .

The correct expression that gives the cost of 20 apples, in dollars, is 20a/d. So, correct option is A.

To find the cost of 20 apples, we need to determine the expression that correctly calculates the cost based on the given variables.

Given that a represents the cost of one apple in dollars and d represents the number of dollars, we can identify the expression that calculates the cost of 20 apples.

Let's analyze each option:

A. 20a/d: This expression calculates the cost of 20 apples by multiplying the cost of one apple (a) by 20 and then dividing by d. Therefore, this expression correctly gives the cost of 20 apples in dollars.

B. 20d/a: This expression calculates the cost of 20 apples by multiplying the number of dollars (d) by 20 and then dividing by the cost of one apple (a). This does not give the correct cost of 20 apples.

C. a/20d: This expression calculates the cost of 20 apples by dividing the cost of one apple (a) by 20 and then dividing by d. This does not give the correct cost of 20 apples.

D. 20/ad: This expression calculates the cost of 20 apples by multiplying 20 by d and then dividing by the cost of one apple (a). This does not give the correct cost of 20 apples.

Therefore, the correct expression that gives the cost of 20 apples, in dollars, is A. 20a/d.

A circle is centered at the point (5,-4) and passes through the point (-3, 2). what is the equation of this circle?

Answers

Answer:

(x-5)² + (y+4)² = 100

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the equation of a circle is expressed as;

(x-a)² + (y-b)² = r² where:

(a,b) is the centre of the circle

r is the radius

Get the radius using the distance formula;

r = √(2-(-4))²+(-3-5)²

r = √6²+(-8)²

r = √36+64

r =√100

r² = 100

Since a = 5 and b = -4, on substituting into the formula;

(x-5)² + (y+4)² = 100

This gives the required equation

(x-5)² + (y+4)² = 100

V = πr²h

Substitute values:

V = π(24/2)²*8 = 3619.11 in³

As we know the,

General formula for volume of cylinder,

→ V = πr²h

split the figure into two pieces and first figure out the rectangle (shown in turquoise).

If you multiply the width and length (18*6) you should get 108.

Then figure out the trapezoid (in magenta). the formula is (a+b)/2*h where a and b are the bases and h is the height. the bases are given, 6 and 18. to find the height, subtract the entire figure's height by 6, which is 18-6 and gives us 12. so the formula converted to this problem is (6+18)/2*12. simplify parenthesis and get 24/2*12. 24/2=12, so multiply 12*12. The area of the trapezoid is 144. Add the areas of both figures together and get 252.

65/264 or 0.2462

Step-by-step explanation:

The given series is

(1/1.2.3) + (1/2.3.4) + (1/3.4.5) + ………………

If we denote the series by

u(1) + u(2) + u(3) + u(4) +……………..u(n),

where u(n) is the nth term, then

u(n) = 1/[n(n+1)(n+2)] , n = 1,2,3,4,………n.

which can be written as

u(n) = (1/2) [1/n(n+1) - 1/(n+1)(n+2)] ………………………(1)

In the question, the number of terms n =10, thereby restricting us only to first 10 terms of the series and we have to find the sum for this truncated series. Let S(10) denote the required sum. We have then from (1),

u(1) = (1/2) (1/1.2 - 1/2.3)

u(2) = (1/2) (1/2.3 - 1/3.4)

u(3) = (1/2) (1/3.4 - 1/4.5)

u(4) = (1/2) (1/4.5 - 1/5.6)

u(5) = (1/2) (1/5.6 - 1/6.7)

u(6) = (1/2) (1/6.7 - 1/7.8)

u(7) = (1/2) (1/7.8 - 1/8.9)

u(8) = (1/2) (1/8.9 - 1/9.10)

u(9) = (1/2) (1/9.10 - 1/10.11)

u(10) = (1/2) (1/10.11 - 1/11.12)

Let us now add the terms on LHS and the terms on RHS independently. The sum of LHS is nothing but the sum S(10) of the series up to 10 terms. On the RHS, alternate terms cancel and we are left with only the first and the last term. Therefore,

S(10) = (1/2) (1/1.2 - 1/11.12) = (1/2) (66–1)/132 = [65/(132.2)]

= 65/264

= 0.2462 (correct to four decimal places)

Answers

Answer:

2 StartRoot 5 EndRoot + 2 StartRoot 17 EndRoot units

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the parallelogram is expressed as

Perimeter = WX + XY + YZ + WZ

Using the distance formula;

WX = √(0-(-1))²+(4-0)²

WX = √1²+4²

WX = √17

For XY:

XY = √(-2-(0))²+(3-4)²

XY = √(-2)²+(-1)²

XY = √4+1

XY = √5

For YZ:

YZ = √(-2+3))²+(3+1)²

YZ = √(1)²+(4)²

YZ = √1+16

YZ = √17

For WZ;

WZ = √(-3+1)²+(-1-0)²

WZ = √(-2)²+(-1)²

WZ = √4+1

WZ = √5

Perimeter = √17+√5+√17+√5

Perimeter = 2√17 + 2√5 units
