16x = 1706.88
x = 106.68 centimeters
If your starting salary is $40000 and you receive a 3% increase at the end of every year, what is the total amount, in dollars, you will earn one the first 16 years that you work
Answer:
Total amount in dollars= $64614.00
Step-by-step explanation:
Initial starting salary is $40000.
Rate of increase is 3%
Number of years is 16 years
The salary is compounded yearly.
Amount A after 16 years is given as
A= p (1+r/n)^ (nt)
A=40000(1+0.03/16)^(16*16)
A= 40000(1.001875)^(256)
A=40000(1.61534824)
A= 64613.92959
Total amount in dollars= $64614.00

On a particular production line, the likelihood that a light bulb is defective is 10%. seven light bulbs are randomly selected. What is the probability that at most 4 of the light bulbs will be defective
Answer:
0.9995
Step-by-step explanation:
10% = 0.10
1 - 0.10 = 0.9
n = number of light bulbs = 7
we calculate this using binomial distribution.
p(x) = nCx × p^x(1-p)^n-x
our question says at most 4 is defective
= (7C0 × 0.1⁰ × 0.9⁷) + (7C1 × 0.1¹ × 0.9⁶) + (7C2 × 0.1² × 0.9⁵) + (7C3 × 0.1³ × 0.9⁴) + (7C4 × 0.1⁴ × 0.9³)
= 0.478 + 0.372 + 0.1239 + 0.023 + 0.0026
= 0.9995
we have 0.9995 probability that at most 4 light bulbs are defective.
An arithmetic sequence has this recursive formula: (a^1 =8, a^n= a^n-1 -6
A.a^n=8+(n-6)(-1)
B.a^n=8+(n-1)(-6)
C.
Answer:
[tex]a_n = 8 + (n - 1) (-6)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]a_1 = 8[/tex]
Recursive: [tex]a_{n} = a_{n-1} - 6[/tex]
Required
Determine the formula
Substitute 2 for n to determine [tex]a_2[/tex]
[tex]a_{2} = a_{2-1} - 6[/tex]
[tex]a_{2} = a_{1} - 6[/tex]
Substitute [tex]a_1 = 8[/tex]
[tex]a_2 = 8 - 6[/tex]
[tex]a_2 = 2[/tex]
Next is to determine the common difference, d;
[tex]d = a_2 - a_1[/tex]
[tex]d = 2 - 8[/tex]
[tex]d = -6[/tex]
The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is calculated as
[tex]a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d[/tex]
Substitute [tex]a_1 = 8[/tex] and [tex]d = -6[/tex]
[tex]a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d[/tex]
[tex]a_n = 8 + (n - 1) (-6)[/tex]
Hence, the nth term of the sequence can be calculated using[tex]a_n = 8 + (n - 1) (-6)[/tex]

B. 1.B
2.A
3.С
C. 1.A
2.C
3.В
D. 1.A
2.В
3.С
Answer:
(1) B
(2) A
(3) C
Step-by-step explanation:
A random variable is a variable that denotes a set of all the possible outcomes of a random experiment. It is denotes by a single capital letter such as X or Y.
There are two types of random variables.
Discrete random variable: These type of random variable takes finite number of values, such as 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ... For example, number of girl child in a neighborhood.Continuous random variable: These type of random variables takes infinite number of possible values. For example, the height, weight.(1)
Exact weight of quarters now in circulation in the United States.
The variable weight is a continuous variable.
Thus, the exact weight of quarters now in circulation in the United States is a continuous random variable.
(2)
Shoe sizes of humans.
The shoe size of a person are discrete and finite values.
Thus, the shoe sizes of humans are discrete random variables.
(3)
Political party affiliations of adults in the United States.
This variable is not a quantitative variable.
It is a qualitative variable.
Thus, the political party affiliations of adults in the United States is no random variable.
The joint density function for a pair of random variables X and Y is given. f(x, y) = Cx(1 + y) if 0 ≤ x ≤ 4, 0 ≤ y ≤ 4 0 otherwise f(x,y) = 0
A) Find the value of the constant C. I already have 1/24.
B) Find P(X < = 1, Y < = 1)
C) Find P(X + Y < = 1).
Answer:
A) C = 1/96
B) P(x<=1, y<=1) = 1/128 or 0.0078125 to 7 places
C) P(x+y<=1) = 5/2305, or 0.0021701 to 7 places
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x,y) = C x (1+y)
A)
To find C, we need to integrate the volume under region bound by
0 <= x <= 4, and
0 <= y <= 4
This volume equals 1.0.
Find integral,
int( int(f(x,y),x=0,4), y = 0,4) = 96C
therefore C = 1/96
or
F(x,y) = x (1+y) / 96 ............................(1)
B)
P(x<=1, y<=1)
Repeat the integral, substitute the appropriate limits,
P = int( int(F(x,y),x=0,1), y = 0,1)
= 1/128 or 0.0078125
P(x<=1, y<=1) = 1/128 or 0.0078125 to 7 places
C)
P(x+y<=1)
From the function, we know that this is going to be less than one half of the probability in (B), closer to 1/4 of the previous.
It will be again a double integral, as follows:
P = int( int(F(x,y),x=0,1-y), y = 0,1)
= 5/2304
= 0.0021701 (to 7 decimals)
P(x+y<=1) = 5/2305, or 0.0021701 to 7 places

How would you find the coefficient of the third term in (x+5)^7?
Answer:
The answer is option B
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the coefficient of the third term in
[tex](x + 5)^{7} [/tex]
Rewrite the expansion in the form
[tex](a + x)^{n} [/tex]
where n is the index
So we have
[tex] ({5 + x})^{7} [/tex]
After that we use the formula
[tex]nCr( {a}^{n - r} ) {x}^{r} [/tex]
where r is the term we are looking for
For the third term we are looking for the term containing x²
that's
r + 1 = 3
r = 2
So to find the coefficient of the third term
We have
[tex]7C2[/tex]
Hope this helps you
first of all, the notation is wrong it should be [tex] {}^nC_r \text{ and more usual notation is } {n \choose k} [/tex]
second, the
[tex](r+1)^{\text{th}} \text{ term } T_{r+1} \text{ in the expansion of } (x+a)^n \text{ is } {n \choose r}x^{(n-r)}a^r[/tex]
here [tex] a=5 \text{ and } n=7 \text{ and for } 3^{\text{rd}} \text{ term } T_3, \quad r+1=3 \implies r=2 [/tex]
so the coefficient of third term is, [tex]{7 \choose 2}={7\choose 5}[/tex]
an important property of binomial coefficient you should know:
[tex] {n \choose k}={n \choose {n-k}}[/tex]
and if you interchange [tex] x \text{ and } a[/tex]
only the "order" will get reversed. i.e. the series will start from back.
another thing, the [tex] k^{\text{th}} \text{ term from beginning, is the } (n-k+2)^{\text{th}} \text{ term from behind}[/tex]
Techwiz electronics makes a profit of $35 for each mp3 and $18 for each DVD last week techwiz sold a combined total of 118 mp3 and DVD players. Let x be the number of mp3 sold last week write an expression for the combined total profit (in dollars) made last week
Answer:
The total profit is [tex]p = 17x + 2124[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The profit made on each mp3 is k = $35
The profit made on each mp3 is y = $18
The total amount sold is n = 118
Now given that the amount of mp3 sold is x then the amount of DVD sold is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]n - x[/tex]
Now the profit made on the x number of mp3 sold is
[tex]x * 35 = 3x[/tex]
And the the profit made from the n-x number of DVD sold is 18 (n-x ) = 18 - 18x
So the total profit made last week from the sales of both mp3 and DVD is
[tex]p = 35x + 18n - 18x[/tex]
[tex]p = 17x + 18(118)[/tex]
[tex]p = 17x + 2124[/tex]
Multiple-Choice Questions
1. In 1995, Diana read 10 English books and 7 French books. In 1996, she read twice as many French books as English books. If 60% of the books that she read during the 2 years were French, how many English and French books did she read in 1996?
(A) 16
(B) 26
(0) 32
(D) 48
Answer:
(D) 48
Step-by-step explanation:
Let English book = x
Let french book = y
In 1995 x= 10
Y= 7
In 1996
Y = 2x
Total book read in the two years
0.6(Total) = y
0.4(total) = x
We don't know the exact amount of books read in 1996.
Total = 10 + 7 +x +2x
Total = 17+3x
0.6(total) = 7+2x
0.6(17+3x) = 7+2x
10.2 +1.8x= 7+2x
10.2-7= 2x-1.8x
3.2= 0.2x
3.2/0.2= x
16= x
So she read 16 English book
And 16*2 = 32 french book Making it a total of 16+32= 48 books in 1996
what number should replace the question mark
Answer: The missing number is 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the table we can only have numbers between 1 and 9,
The pattern that i see is:
We have sets of 3 numbers.
"the bottom number is equal to the difference between the two first numers, if the difference is negative, change the sign, if the difference is zero, there goes a 9 (the next number to zero)"
Goin from right to left we have:
9 - 6 = 3
6 - 2 = 4
4 - 9 = - 5 (is negative, so we actually use -(-5) = 5)
4 - 4 = 0 (we can not use zero, so we use the next number, 9)
3 - 3 = 0 (same as above)
? - 1 = 4
? = 4 + 1 = 5
The missing number is 5.
(a) A survey of the adults in a town shows that 8% have liver problems. Of these, it is also found that 25% are heavy drinkers, 35% are social drinkers and 40% are non-drinkers. Of those that did not suffer from liver problems, 5% are heavy drinkers, 65% are social drinkers and 30% do not drink at all. An adult is chosen at random, what is the probability that this person i. Has a liver problems? (3 Marks) ii. Is a heavy drinker (2 Marks) iii. If a person is found to be a heavy drinker, what is the probability that this person has liver problem? (2 Marks) iv. If a person is found to have liver problems, what is the probability that this person is a heavy drinker? (2 Marks) v. If a person is found to be a non –drinker, what is the probability that this person has liver problems. (2 Marks)
Answer:
i. Has a liver problems?
= 0.08
ii. Is a heavy drinker ?
= 0.066
iii. If a person is found to be a heavy drinker, what is the probability that this person has liver problem?
= 0.303
iv. If a person is found to have liver problems, what is the probability that this person is a heavy drinker?
= 0.25
v. If a person is found to be a non –drinker, what is the probability that this person has liver problems?
= 0.104
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 2 Events in this question
Event A: People with liver problems
Event B : People without liver problems
Event A: People with liver problems
Let us represent people with liver problems as = (L)
a)8% have liver problems. = P(L)
Under liver problems we have:
b) 25% are heavy drinkers = P( L & H)
c) 35% are social drinkers = P( L & S)
d) 40% are non-drinkers. = P( L & N)
Event B( no liver problem)
Let us represent no liver problem as NL
We are not given in the question but Probability of having no liver problem = 100 - Probability of having liver problem
= 100 - 8% = 92 %
P(NL ) = 92%
From the question, For people without liver problems, we have:
a) 5% are heavy drinkers = P(NL & H)
b) 65% are social drinkers = P( NL & S)
c) 30% do not drink at all = P( NL & N)
An adult is chosen at random, what is the probability that this person
i. Has a liver problems?
P(L) = 8% or 0.08
ii. Is a heavy drinker ?
From the question, we have:
Probability of people that have liver problems and are heavy drinkers P(L & H) = 25% = 0.25
Probability of people that have do not have liver problems and are heavy drinkers P(NL & H) = 5% = 0.05
Probability ( Heavy drinker) =
P(L) × P(L & H) + P(NL) × P(NL & H)
= 0.25 × 0.08 + 0.05 × 0.92
= 0.066
iii. If a person is found to be a heavy drinker, what is the probability that this person has liver problem?
Probability (Heavy drinker and has liver problem) = [P(L) × P(L & H)] ÷ [P(L) × P(L & H)] + [P(NL) × P(NL & H) ]
= [0.25 × 0.08] ÷ [0.25 × 0.08] + [0.05 × 0.92]
= 0.303030303
Approximately = 0.303
iv. If a person is found to have liver problems, what is the probability that this person is a heavy drinker?
P(L & H) = 25% = 0.25
v. If a person is found to be a non –drinker, what is the probability that this person has liver problems.?
People with liver problems are non-drinkers. = P( L & N) = 40% = 0.4
People without liver problems and do not drink at all = P( NL & N) = 30% = 0.3
Probability (non drinker and has liver problem) = [P( L & N) × P(L & H)] ÷ [P( L & N) × P(L & H)] + [ P( NL & N) × P(NL & H) ]
= [0.4× 0.08] ÷ [0.4 × 0.08] + [0.3 × 0.92]
= 0.1038961039
Approximately ≈ 0.104

Answer:
0.4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The magnifying glass basically zooms into smaller objects. If the insect appears to be 2cm, then it is actually smaller than this. It cannot be 10 cm.
If the scale factor is 5, then this means that the insect is zoomed in 5 times through the magnifying glass. Use the following ratio:
[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]
This fraction can also be seen as division, so:
[tex]2[/tex]÷[tex]5=0.4[/tex]
The insect is actually 0.4 cm long.

Find the side length, b.
Round to the nearest tenth.
Answer:
b ≈ 9.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
b² = a² + c² = 6² +7² = 36 + 49 = 85 ( take the square root of both sides )
b = [tex]\sqrt{85}[/tex] ≈ 9.2 ( to the nearest tenth )
Answer:
9.22
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it's a 90° triangle [tex]c^{2} =a^{2} +b^{2}[/tex].
In this example they labeled the hypotenuse as b instead of c are equation is still the same just put the correct variables in the right places.
[tex]b = \sqrt{6^{2} +7^{2} }[/tex]
b = 9.22
Match each function name with its equation.

e. Cubic--[tex]y=x^{3}[/tex]
f. Square Root--[tex]y=\sqrt{x}[/tex]
g. Reciprocal--[tex]y=\frac{1}{x}[/tex]
h. Cube root--[tex]y=\sqrt[3]{x}[/tex]
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y=[tex]x^{2}[/tex] is quadratic
y=x is an absolute value
y= |x| os linear
y= [tex]\frac{1}{x}[/tex] is reciprocal
y= [tex]x^{3}[/tex] is cubic
y= [tex]\sqrt{x}[/tex] is square root
y= [tex]\frac{1}{x^{2} }[/tex] is reciprocal squared
y= [tex]\sqrt[3]{x}[/tex] is cube root
a student ran out of time on a multiple choice exam and randomly guess the answers for two problems each problem have four answer choices ABCD and only one correct answer what is the probability that he answered neither of the problems correctly
Answer:
The probability that he answered neither of the problems correctly is 0.0625.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a student ran out of time on a multiple-choice exam and randomly guess the answers for two problems each problem have four answer choices ABCD and only one correct answer.
Let X = Number of problems correctly answered by a student.
The above situation can be represented through binomial distribution;
[tex]P(X=r)=\binom{n}{r}\times p^{r}\times (1-p)^{n-r};x=0,1,2,3,....[/tex]
where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 2 problems
r = number of success = neither of the problems are correct
p = probability of success which in our question is probability that
a student answer correctly, i.e; p = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = 0.75.
So, X ~ Binom(n = 2, p = 0.75)
Now, the probability that he answered neither of the problems correctly is given by = P(X = 0)
P(X = 0) = [tex]\binom{2}{0}\times 0.75^{0}\times (1-0.75)^{2-0}[/tex]
= [tex]1 \times 1\times 0.25^{2}[/tex]
= 0.0625
Let the following sample of 8 observations be drawn from a normal population with unknown mean and standard deviation:
21, 14, 13, 24, 17, 22, 25, 12
Required:
a. Calculate the sample mean and the sample standard deviation.
b. Construct the 90% confidence interval for the population mean.
c. Construct the 95% confidence interval for the population mean
Answer:
a
[tex]\= x = 18.5[/tex] , [tex]\sigma = 5.15[/tex]
b
[tex]15.505 < \mu < 21.495[/tex]
c
[tex]14.93 < \mu < 22.069[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are are told that
The sample data is 21, 14, 13, 24, 17, 22, 25, 12
The sample size is n = 8
Generally the ample mean is evaluated as
[tex]\= x = \frac{\sum x }{n}[/tex]
[tex]\= x = \frac{ 21 + 14 + 13 + 24 + 17 + 22+ 25 + 12 }{8}[/tex]
[tex]\= x = 18.5[/tex]
Generally the standard deviation is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum (x- \=x )^2}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum ((21 - 18.5)^2 + (14-18.5)^2+ (13-18.5)^2+ (24-18.5)^2+ (17-18.5)^2+ (22-18.5)^2+ (25-18.5)^2+ (12 -18.5)^2 )}{8}}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = 5.15[/tex]
considering part b
Given that the confidence level is 90% then the significance level is evaluated as
[tex]\alpha = 100-90[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 10\%[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 0.10[/tex]
Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{ \alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table the value is
[tex]Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } = 1.645[/tex]
The margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E =1.645 * \frac{5.15 }{\sqrt{8} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 2.995[/tex]
The 90% confidence interval is evaluated as
[tex]\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]18.5 - 2.995 < \mu < 18.5 + 2.995[/tex]
[tex]15.505 < \mu < 21.495[/tex]
considering part c
Given that the confidence level is 95% then the significance level is evaluated as
[tex]\alpha = 100-95[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 5\%[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]
Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{ \alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table the value is
[tex]Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]
The margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E =1.96 * \frac{5.15 }{\sqrt{8} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 3.569[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval is evaluated as
[tex]\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]18.5 - 3.569 < \mu < 18.5 + 3.569[/tex]
[tex]14.93 < \mu < 22.069[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]f(x) = {x}^{2} + 4x - 5[/tex] ; >-2
Find [tex] \frac{d {f}^{ - 1} }{dx} [/tex] at x=16
Please show solving
The inverse function theorem says
[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm df^{-1}}{\mathrm dx}(16)=\dfrac1{\frac{\mathrm df}{\mathrm dx}(f^{-1}(16))}[/tex]
We have
[tex]f(x)=x^2+4x-5[/tex]
defined on [tex]x>-2[/tex], for which we get
[tex]f^{-1}(x)=-2+\sqrt{x+9}[/tex]
and
[tex]f^{-1}(16)=-2+\sqrt{16+9}=3[/tex]
The derivative of [tex]f(x)[/tex] is
[tex]f'(x)=2x+4[/tex]
So we end up with
[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm df^{-1}}{\mathrm dx}(16)=\dfrac1{\frac{\mathrm df}{\mathrm dx}(3)}=\dfrac1{10}[/tex]

7+8 = 3x+2x
15 = 5x
x=3
substitute
y = 2(3) - 8
y = -2
Hope that helped!!! k
Answer:
y = -2
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve using elimination
1. Rearrange the equations to make it easier to solve
y = -3x + 7 → 3x + y = 7
y = 2x - 8 → 2x - y = 8
2. Multiply the equations to have a matching coefficient
2(3x + y = 7) = 6x + 2y = 14
3(2x - y = 8) = 6x - 3y = 24
3. Subtract
6x + 2y = 14
- 6x - 3y = 24
0 + 5y = -10
4. Solve for y
5y = -10
y = -2
5. Substitute y in any equation to solve for x
-2 = -3x + 7
-3x = -9
x = 3

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.
In a recent year, the socres for the reading portion of a test were normally distributed, with a mean of 23.3 and a standard deviation of 6.4. Complete parts (a) through (d) below.
(a) Find the probability that a randomly selected high school student who took the reading portion of the test has a score that is less than 18. (Round to 4 decimal places as needed.)
(b) Find a probability that a random selected high school student who took the reading portion of the test has a score that is between 19.9 and 26.7.
(c) Find a probability that a random selected high school student who took the reading portion of the test ahs a score that is more than 36.4.
(d) Identify any unusual events. Explain your reasoning.
Answer: (a) P(X<18) = 0.2033
(b) P(19.9<X<26.7) = 0.4505
(c) P(X>36.4) = 0.0202
(d) Unusual event: P(X>36.4)
Step-by-step explanation: First, determine the z-score by calculating:
[tex]z = \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
Then, use z-score table to determine the values.
(a) x = 18
[tex]z = \frac{18-23.3}{6.4}[/tex]
z = -0.83
P(X<18) = P(z< -0.83)
P(X<18) = 0.2033
(b) x=19.9 and x=26.7
[tex]z = \frac{19.9-23.3}{6.4}[/tex]
z = -0.67
[tex]z = \frac{26.7-23.3}{6.4}[/tex]
z = 0.53
P(19.9<X<26.7) = P(z<0.53) - P(z< -0.67)
P(19.9<X<26.7) = 0.7019 - 0.2514
P(19.9<X<26.7) = 0.4505
(c) x=36.4
[tex]z = \frac{36.4-23.3}{6.4}[/tex]
z = 2.05
P(X>36.4) = P(z>2.05) = 1 - P(z<2.05)
P(X>36.4) = 1 - 0.9798
P(X>36.4) = 0.0202
(d) Events are unusual if probability is less than 5% or 0.05. So, part (c) has an unusual event.
The probability will be:
(a) 0.2038
(b) 0.4046
(c) 0.0203
(d) Event in part (c) is unusual.
According to the question,
[tex]\mu = 23.2[/tex][tex]\sigma = 6.4[/tex]Let,
"X" shows the test scores.(a)
The z-score for X=18 will be:
→ [tex]z = \frac{X- \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{18-23.3}{6.4}[/tex]
[tex]= -0.828[/tex]
So,
The probability will be:
→ [tex]P(X<18) = P(z < -0.828)[/tex]
[tex]= 0.2038[/tex]
(b)
The z-score for X=19.9 will be:
→ [tex]z = \frac{X -\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{19.9-23.3}{6.4}[/tex]
[tex]= -0.531[/tex]
The z-score for X=26.7 will be:
→ [tex]z = \frac{X -\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{26.7-23.3}{6.4}[/tex]
[tex]= 0.531[/tex]
So,
The probability will be:
→ [tex]P(19.9 < X< 23.3) = P(-0.531 < z< 0.531)[/tex]
[tex]= 0.4046[/tex]
(c)
The z-score for X=36.4 will be:
→ [tex]z = \frac{X -\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{36.4-23.3}{6.4}[/tex]
[tex]= 2.047[/tex]
So,
The probability will be:
→ [tex]P(X > 36.4 )= P(z > 2.047)[/tex]
[tex]= 0.0203[/tex]
(d)
Just because it's probability value is less than 0.05, so that the events is "part c" is unusual.

Answer:
C° = 71.6056
Step-by-step explanation:
Law of Cosines: c² = a² + b² - 2abcosC°
Step 1: Plug in known variables
29² = 30² + 15² - 2(30)(15)cosC°
Step 2: Evaluate
841 = 900 + 225 - 900cosC°
-59 = 225 - 900cosC°
-284 = -900cosC°
71/225 = cosC°
cos⁻¹(71/225) = C°
C° = 71.6056
And we have our answer!
Answer:
79.0°
Step-by-step explanation:
The Law of Cosines is used for this purpose. It tells you ...
a² = b² +c² -2bc·cos(A)
Solving for A gives ...
cos(A) = (b² +c² -a²)/(2bc) = (15² +29²-30²)/(2(15)(29)) = 166/870
Using the inverse cosine function, we find the angle to be ...
A = arccos(166/870) ≈ 79.00026°
A ≈ 79.0°

Answer:
204
Step-by-step explanation:
To simplify the shape, you can do multiple things. I've opted to shave down both prongs to take it from a 'T' shape to a rectangular prism.
For height of the prongs, take 4 from 6.
6 - 4 = 2
Divide by 2 as there are 2 prongs.
2 / 2 = 1
Remember L * W * H
6 * 3 * 1 = 18
Remember that there are two prongs!
3 + 4 = 7
6 * 7 * 4 = 168
168 + 2(18) = 204

Researchers recorded that a certain bacteria population declined from 120,000 to 200 in 36 hours. At this rate of decay, how many bacteria will there be in 31 hours? Round to the nearest whole number.
Answer: There will 486 bacteria in 31 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
The population decay in bacteria is exponential.
Exponential function : [tex]y=Ab^x[/tex], where A = initial population, b multiplication decay factor, t= time:
As per given:
Initial population: [tex]A=120,000[/tex]
After 36 hours, population = [tex]120000(b^{36})=200[/tex]
Divide both sides by 120,000 we get
[tex]b^{36}= 0.00167[/tex]
Taking natural log on both sides , we get
[tex]36\ln b=\ln 0.00167\\\\\Rightarrow\ b=e^{\left(\frac{\ln0.00167}{36}\right)}=0.83724629\approx0.8372[/tex]
At x= 31,
[tex]y=120000(0.8372)^{31}=120000\times0.00405234\approx486[/tex]
Hence, there will 486 bacteria in 31 hours.
BRAINLIEST ANSWER GIVEN, WHY CAN'T ANYONE HELP ME?! Find the equation of the line passing through the pair points (-8,6) (-9,-9). The equation of the line in the form is Ax+By=C.
Answer:
15x - y = - 126
or y = 15x + 126
Step-by-step explanation:
will make it simple and short
to find the equation... we need to find slope first.
y2 - y1 -9 - 6
slope = m = --------- = ----------- = 15
x2 - x1 -9 - (-8)
so we know that the equation of the line using point (-8,6) and slope 15 y - 6 = 15( x + 8)
y - 6 = 15x + 120
Writing the equation in the form Ax + By = C
15x - y = -120-6
therefore.... 15x - y = - 126 or simplify it as or y = 15x + 126
Hope this helps
