Given points A(-1, -2) and B(2, 4) where AP: BP=1:2, find the locus of point P.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]x^2 + 4x + y^2 +8y = 0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]A = (-1,-2)[/tex]

[tex]B = (2,4)[/tex]

[tex]AP:BP = 1 : 2[/tex]

Required

The locus of P

[tex]AP:BP = 1 : 2[/tex]

Express as fraction

[tex]\frac{AP}{BP} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]2AP = BP[/tex]

Calculate AP and BP using the following distance formula:

[tex]d = \sqrt{(x - x_1)^2 + (y - y_1)^2}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]2 * \sqrt{(x - -1)^2 + (y - -2)^2} = \sqrt{(x - 2)^2 + (y - 4)^2}[/tex]

[tex]2 * \sqrt{(x +1)^2 + (y +2)^2} = \sqrt{(x - 2)^2 + (y - 4)^2}[/tex]

Take square of both sides

[tex]4 * [(x +1)^2 + (y +2)^2] = (x - 2)^2 + (y - 4)^2[/tex]

Evaluate all squares

[tex]4 * [x^2 + 2x + 1 + y^2 +4y + 4] = x^2 - 4x + 4 + y^2 - 8y + 16[/tex]

Collect and evaluate like terms

[tex]4 * [x^2 + 2x + y^2 +4y + 5] = x^2 - 4x + y^2 - 8y + 20[/tex]

Open brackets

[tex]4x^2 + 8x + 4y^2 +16y + 20 = x^2 - 4x + y^2 - 8y + 20[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]4x^2 - x^2 + 8x + 4x + 4y^2 -y^2 +16y + 8y + 20 - 20 = 0[/tex]

[tex]3x^2 + 12x + 3y^2 +24y = 0[/tex]

Divide through by 3

[tex]x^2 + 4x + y^2 +8y = 0[/tex]

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf x \approx 1.9}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find x, a missing side in a triangle.

This is a right triangle because there is a small square in the corner representing a 90 degree or right angle. Therefore, we can use right triangle trigonometry. The three main functions are:

sinθ= opposite/hypotenuse cosθ= adjacent/hypotenuse tanθ= opposite/adjacent

Examine the triangle. We will use angle S, measuring 54 degrees, for theta. Side QR, measuring x, is opposite angle S. Side QS, measuring 2.3, is the hypotenuse because it is opposite the right angle. Since we have the opposite and hypotenuse, we will use sine.

[tex]sin \theta = \frac {opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

θ= 54opposite= x hypotenuse = 2.3

[tex]sin (54)= \frac{ x}{2.3}[/tex]

We are solving for x, so we must isolate the variable. It is being divided by 2.3 The inverse operation of division is multiplication, so we multiply both sides by 2.3

[tex]2.3* sin (54)= \frac{x}{2.3}*2.3[/tex]

[tex]2.3* sin (54)=x[/tex]

[tex]2.3*0.8090169944=x[/tex]

[tex]1.860739087 =x[/tex]

Round to the nearest tenth. The 6 in the hundredth place to the right tells us to round the 8 up to a 9.

Answers

Answer:

C. infinitely many

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the lines are the same they must intersect at every point. Therefore, there are infinitely many solutions.

A boat takes 3 days to travel from town A to town B, but it takes 4 days to travel from town B to town A. If a motor-less raft is left alone in the water by town A, how long will it take for the raft to float to town B?

Answers

Answer:

24 days

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance from A to B equals the distance from B to A.

Let the distance between A and B be d.

3 days = 72 hours

4 days = 96 hours

speed = distance/time

speeds are in miles per hour

speed from A to B = d/72

speed from B to A = d/96

difference in speeds:

d/72 - d/96 = d/288

The speed of the water is half of the difference.

speed = d/576

When the raft floats from A to B, it uses only the speed of the water.

d/576 / d/72 = 1/8

The speed of the water is 1/8 the overall speed of the trip from A to B, so traveling by the speed of the water alone must take 8 times longer than with the boat motor.

8 * 3 days = 24 days

(B) An airline knows from experience that the distribution of the number of suitcases that get lost each week on a certain route is normal with μ (mean) = 15.5 and σ (standard deviation) = 3.6. What is the probability that during a given week the airline will lose between 11 and 19 suitcases?

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is "0.7289".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given values are:

Mean,

[tex]\mu = 15.5[/tex]

Standard deviation,

[tex]\sigma = 3.6[/tex]

As we know,

⇒ [tex]z = \frac{(x - \mu)}{\sigma}[/tex]

The probability will be:

⇒ [tex]P(11< x< 19) = P(\frac{11-15.5}{3.6} <z<\frac{19-15.5}{3.6})[/tex]

                             [tex]=P(z< 0.9722)-P(z< -1.25)[/tex]

By using the z table, we get

                             [tex]=0.8345-0.1056[/tex]

                             [tex]=0.7289[/tex]

We know that x+y=54. By the Arithmetic Mean - Geometric Mean inequality, we can see that [tex]\frac{x+y}{2} \ge \sqrt{xy[/tex]. Substituting in x+y=54, we get [tex]27\ge\sqrt{xy}[/tex], meaning that [tex]729 \ge xy[/tex]. Equality will only be obtained when x=y (in this case it will generate the maximum for xy), so setting x = y, we can see that x = y = 27. Hence, 27 is the answer you are looking for.

The average breaking strength of a certain brand of steel cable is 2000 pounds, with a standard deviation of 100 pounds. A sample of 20 cables is selected and tested. Find the sample mean that will cut off the upper 95% of all samples of size 20 taken from the population. Assume the variable is normally distributed.

Answers

Answer:

The sample mean that will cut off the upper 95% of all samples of size 20 taken from the population is of 1963.2 pounds.

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.

The average breaking strength of a certain brand of steel cable is 2000 pounds, with a standard deviation of 100 pounds.

This means that [tex]\mu = 2000, \sigma = 100[/tex]

A sample of 20 cables is selected and tested.

This means that [tex]n = 20, s = \frac{100}{\sqrt{20}} = 22.361[/tex]

Find the sample mean that will cut off the upper 95% of all samples of size 20 taken from the population.

This is the 100 - 95 = 5th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.05, so X when Z = -1.645. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]-1.645 = \frac{X - 2000}{22.361}[/tex]

[tex]X - 2000 = -1.645*22.361[/tex]

[tex]X = 1963.2[/tex]

The sample mean that will cut off the upper 95% of all samples of size 20 taken from the population is of 1963.2 pounds.

The scores of a high school entrance exam are approximately normally distributed with a given mean Mu = 82.4 and standard deviation Sigma = 3.3. What percentage of the scores are between 75.8 and 89?

Answers

Notice that

75.8 = 82.4 - 6.6 = 82.4 - 2 × 3.3

89 = 82.4 + 6.6 = 82.4 + 2 × 3.3

Then the percentage of students with scores between 75.8 and 89 make up the part of the distribution that lies within 2 standard deviations of the mean. The empirical (68-95-99.7) rule says that approximately 95% of any distribution lies within this range.

Mean = ΣX / n = 1825 / 25 = 73

The mode = 71 ( most frequently occurring)

Median = 1/2(n+1)th term = 1/(26) = 13th term

Median = 73

51, 55, 56, 59, 65, 67, 68, 69, 69, 74, 75, 76, 77, 77, 79, 79, 79, 86, 87, 89, 90, 91, 91, 95, 98

Mean = ΣX / n = 1902 / 25 = 76.08

The mode = 79 ( most frequently occurring)

Median = 1/2(n+1)th term = 1/(26) = 13th term

Median = 77

According to the computed statistics, we can conclude that, today is worse than the past as the average score which is almost similar to the median value is higher 10 years ago and the modal score is better 10 years ago as well.

1 calculate the weight of a dog on the earth and on the moon if it has a mass of 28kg

Answers

To solve the problem.

W=m×g

W=28×10

W=280.

The weight of a dog on the surface of earth is 280N.

Answer:

274.68N and 45.36N respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of any object is the mass in kilograms(kg) multiplied by the gravity in meter per square second(m/s^2). The gravity on earth is 9.81m/s^2 and on moon is 1.62m/s^2...so since the gravity varies the weight of the dog will also vary. The wight on earth would be 28kg multiplied by 9.81m/s^2 which would be 274.68N and the weight on moon would be 28kg multiplied by 1.62m/s^2 which would be 45.36N.
