If (3x − 2)(3x + 2) = ax2 − b, what is the value of a?

Answers

Answer 1

(3x-2)(3x+ 2)

Multiply each term in one set of parentheses by the other terms:

3x x 3x =9x^2

3x x 2 = 6x

-2 x 3x = -6x

-2 x 2 = -4

Combine to get:

9x^2 + 6x - 6x -4

Combine like terms:

9x^2 - 4

The value of a would be 9.

Answer 2

C. (-5, -1), (-1, -2), (7, 1)

D. (-1, 5), (-2, 1), (1, -7)

Answers

Answer:

A. (1, -5), (2, -1), (-1, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflecting a function over the x-axis:

When a function is reflected over the x-axis, the x-value stays the same, while y changes the signal, so the transformation rule is:

[tex](x,y) \rightarrow (x,-y)[/tex]

To find the range:

We apply the transformation to the points in the domain. Thus:

[tex](1,5) \rightarrow (1,-5)[/tex]

[tex](2,1) \rightarrow (2,-1)[/tex]

[tex](-1,-7) \rightarrow (-1,-(-7)) = (-1, 7)[/tex]

Thus the correct answer is given by option a.

A random sample of 16 values is drawn from a mound-shaped and symmetric distribution. The sample mean is 12 and the sample standard deviation is 2. Use a level of significance of 0.05 to conduct a two-tailed test of the claim that the population mean is 11.5.

Answers

Answer:

we conclude that population mean is not 11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis :

H0 : μ = 11.5

H1 : μ ≠ 11.5

The test statistic :

(xbar - μ) ÷ (s/√(n))

Test statistic = (12 - 11.5) ÷ (2/√(16))

Test statistic = (0.5) ÷ (2 ÷ 4)

Test statistic = 0.5 / 0.5

Test statistic = 1

The Pvalue from test statistic value, df = n - 1 = 16 - 1 = 15

Pvalue = 0.333

Pvalue > α ; we fail to reject the null ; Hence, we conclude that population mean is not 11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The degree measure of a straight line is (180) degrees. Therefore, when a line intersects another line, the sum of angle measures on any one side of the line is (180). One can apply this here to find the supplement (the angle on the same side of the line) of the angle with a measure of (130) degrees, and (85) degrees.

[tex]130 + (unknown_1)=180\\unknown_1=50\\\\85+(unknown_2)=180\\unknown_2=95[/tex]

The sum of angle measures in a triangle is (180) degrees, one can apply this here by stating the following;

Question 5 Multiple Choice Worth 1 points)

Bunny Hill Ski Resort charges $35 for ski rental and $10 an hour to ski. Black Diamond Ski Resort charges $40 for ski rental and $5 an hour to ski. Create an equation to determine at what point
the cost of both ski slopes is the same.

Answers

Answer:

Bunny Hill Ski Resort:

y = 10x + 35

Diamond Ski Resort:

y = 5x + 40

Point where the cost is the same:

(1, 45)

Step-by-step explanation:

The question tells us that:

$35 and $40 are initial fees

$10 and $5 are hourly fees

This means that x and y will equal:

x = number of hours

y = total cost of ski rental after a number of hours

So we can form these 2 equations:

y = 10x + 35

y = 5x + 40

Now we are going to use System of Equations to find what point the cost of both ski slopes is the same.

Because they both equal y, we can set the equations equal to each other:

10x + 35 = 5x + 40

And we use basic algebra to solve for x:

10x + 35 = 5x + 40

(subtract 5x from both sides)

5x + 35 = 40

(subtract 35 from both sides)

5x = 5

(divide both sides by 5)

x = 1

Remember, x equals the number of hours.

That means when your rent out the skis for 1 hour, you will get the same price of $45 (you find the price by plugging in 1 into both of the equations)

Suppose the mean income of firms in the industry for a year is 95 million dollars with a standard deviation of 11 million dollars. If incomes for the industry are distributed normally, what is the probability that a randomly selected firm will earn less than 114 million dollars

Answers

Answer:

95.73%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

mean μ= 95

standard deviation, σ = 11

to calculate, the probability that a randomly selected firm will earn less than 114 million dollars;

Use normal distribution formula

[tex]P(X<114)=P(Z<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} )[/tex]

Substitute the required values in the above equation;

[tex]P(X<114)=P(Z<\frac{114-95}{11} )\\P(X<114)=P(Z<1.7272)\\P(X<114)=0.9573[/tex]

Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected firm will earn less than 114 million dollars = 95.73%

R = rate = 2.5%.

I = interest = 11250

T = time = unknown.

I = (P × R × T) / 100

11250 = (150000 × 2.5 × T)/100

Cross multiply

Problem:

If m and n are positive integers and m^2 - n^2 = 9, which of the following could be the value of

n?

A) 1

B) 16

C) 9

D) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

One approach would be to plug in the choices and see.

If n=1, then we have m^2-1=9.

This would give m^2=10 after adding 1 on both sides. There is no integer m when squared would give us 10. ( Square root of 9 is a decimal )

If n=16, then we would have m^2-256=9.

This would give m^2=265 after adding 256 on both sides. There is no integer m when squared would give us 265. ( Square root of 265 is a decimal )

If n=9, then we would have m^2-81=9.

This would give m^2=90 after adding 81 on both sides. There is no integer m when squared would give us 90. ( Square root of 90 is a decimal )

If n=4, then we would have m^2-16=9.

This would give m^2=25 after adding 16 on both sides. There is an integer m when squared would give us 25. ( Square root of 25 is a 5)
