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)

Let f(x) = (x − 1)2, g(x) = e−2x, and h(x) = 1 + ln(1 − 2x). (a) Find the linearizations of f, g, and h at a = 0. What do you notice? How do you explain what happened?
Answer:
Lf(x) = Lg(x) = Lh(x) = 1 - 2x
value of the functions and their derivative are the same at x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
f(x) = (x − 1)^2,
g(x) = e^−2x ,
h(x) = 1 + ln(1 − 2x).
a) Determine Linearization of f, g and h at a = 0
L(x) = f (a) + f'(a) (x-a) ( linearization of f at a )
for f(x) = (x − 1)^2
f'(x ) = 2( x - 1 )
at x = 0
f' = -2
hence the Linearization at a = 0
Lf (x) = f(0) + f'(0) ( x - 0 )
Lf (x) = 1 -2 ( x - 0 ) = 1 - 2x
For g(x) = e^−2x
g'(x) = -2e^-2x
at x = 0
g(0) = 1
g'(0) = -2e^0 = -2
hence linearization at a = 0
Lg(x) = g ( 0 ) + g' (0) (x - 0 )
Lg(x) = 1 - 2x
For h(x) = 1 + ln(1 − 2x).
h'(x) = -2 / ( 1 - 2x )
at x = 0
h(0) = 1
h'(0) = -2
hence linearization at a = 0
Lh(x) = h(0) + h'(0) (x-0)
= 1 - 2x
Observation and reason
The Linearization is the same in every function i.e. Lf(x) = Lg(x) = Lh(x) this is because the value of the functions and their derivative are the same at x = 0
62. A chemist mixes 15 liters of 40 percent acid solution and 25 liters of 20 percent acid solution.
What percent of the mixture is acid?
40% of 15 L = 6 L of acid
20% of 25 L = 5 L of acid
This means the mixture contains a total of 11 L of acid, and with a total volume of 15 L + 25 L = 40 L, that means the mixture is at a concentration of
(11 L acid) / (40 L solution) = 0.275 = 27.5%
Agan Interior Design provides home and office decorating assistance to its customers. In normal operation, an average of 2.5 customers arrive each hour. One design consultant is available to answer customer questions and make product recommendations. The consultant averages 10 minutes with each customer. Compute the operating characteristics of the customer waiting line, assuming Poisson arrivals and exponential service times. Round your answers to four decimal places. Do not round intermediate calculations.
Answer:
the operating characteristics have been solved below
Step-by-step explanation:
we have an average of 10 minutes per customers
μ = mean service rate = 60/10 = 6 customers in one hr
the average number of customers that are waiting in line
mean arrival λ = 2.5
μ = 6
[tex]Lq = \frac{2.5^{2} }{6(6-2.5)} \\[/tex]
= 6.25/21
= 0.2976
we calculate the average number of customers that are in the system
[tex]L=Lq+\frac{2.5}{6}[/tex]
= 0.2976+0.4167
= 0.7143
we find the average time that a customer spends in waiting
[tex]Wq=\frac{0.2976}{2.5}[/tex]
= 0.1190 hours
when converted to minutes = 0.1190*60 = 7.1424 minutes
[tex]0.1190+\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
=0.2857
probability that arriving customers would wait for the service
= 2.5÷6 = 0.4167

In a random sample of students at a university, stated that they were nonsmokers. Based on this sample, compute a confidence interval for the proportion of all students at the university who are nonsmokers. Then find the lower limit and upper limit of the confidence interval.
Answer:
(0.8165 ; 0.8819)
Lower boundary = 0.8165
Upper boundary = 0.8819
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Sample proportion. Phat = x/ n = 276/ 325 = 0.8492
Confidence interval :
Phat ± margin of error
Margin of Error = Zα/2* [√Phat(1 - Phat) / n]
Phat ± Zα/2* [√Phat(1 - Phat) / n]
The 90% Z critical value is = 1.645
0.8492 ± 1.645*[√0.8492(1 - 0.8492) / 325)
0.8492 ± 1.645*[√0.8492(0.1508) / 325]
0.8492 ± 1.645*√0.0003940288
0.8492 ± 0.0326535
Lower boundary = 0.8492 - 0.0326535 = 0.8165
Upper boundary = 0.8492 + 0.0326535 = 0.8819
Confidence interval = (0.8165 ; 0.8819)

Records kept by the college of business from which she graduated indicate that 73% of students who graduated pass the CPA exam. Assume that the exam is changed each time it is given. Let n = 1, 2, 3, ... represent the number of times a person takes the CPA test until the first pass. (Assume the trials are independent).
(a) What is the probability that Cathy passes the CPA test on the first try?
(b) What is the probability that Cathy passes the CPA test on the second or third try?
Answer:
The responses to these question can be defined as follows:
Step-by-step explanation:
For point a:
[tex]\to P(1) = 0.73[/tex]
For point b:
[tex]\to P(2\ or\ 3) = P(2) + P(3)[/tex]
[tex]= 0.27 \times 0.73 + 0.27\times 0.27\times0.73\\\\=0.1971+0.1971\times 0.27\\\\=0.1971+0.053217\\\\=0.250317[/tex]
g At a certain gas station, 30% of all customers use the restroom. What is the probability that, out of the next 10 customers, (a) exactly 4 will use the restroom
Answer:
[tex]P(x=4) = 0.200[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]n=10[/tex] --- selected customers
[tex]x = 4[/tex] --- those that are expected to use the restroom
[tex]p =30\% = 0.30[/tex] --- proportion that uses the restroom
Required
[tex]P(x = 4)[/tex]
The question illustrates binomial probability and the formula is:
[tex]P(x) = ^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n - x}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]P(x=4) = ^{10}C_4 * (0.30)^4 * (1 - 0.30)^{10 - 4}[/tex]
[tex]P(x=4) = ^{10}C_4 * (0.30)^4 * (0.70)^6[/tex]
[tex]P(x=4) = 210* (0.30)^4 * (0.70)^6[/tex]
[tex]P(x=4) = 0.200[/tex]
What is the rate of change of the line on the graph
Answer:
A. ¼
Step-by-step explanation:
Rate of change (m) = [tex] \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} [/tex]
Using two points on the line, (4, 1) and (-4, -1), find the rate of change using the formula stated above:
Where,
[tex] (4, 1) = (x_1, y_1) [/tex]
[tex] (-4, -1) = (x_2, y_2) [/tex]
Plug in the values
Rate of change (m) = [tex] \frac{-1 - 1}{-4 - 4} [/tex]
= [tex] \frac{-2}{-8} [/tex]
= [tex] \frac{1}{4} [/tex]
Rate of change = ¼

37. Two numbers are such that their
difference, their sum and their
product are in the ratio 1:7: 24.
Find the product of the
number.
Answer:
8 and 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Two numbers are such that their difference, their sum, and their product are to
each other as 1:7:24. Their product must equal what number?
:
Two numbers a & b
Let x = the multiplier
:
a - b = 1x
a + b = 7x
a * b = 24x
:
Add the 1st two equations
a - b = x
a + b = 7x
2a = 8x
a = 4x
or
x = .25a
:
a * b = 24x
Replace 24x; a = 4x therefore:
a * b = 6a
b = 6
;
Using the 1st equation
a - b = 1x
Replace b with 6 and x with .25a
a - 6 = .25a
a - .25a = 6
.75a = 6
a =
a = 8
:
Find the multiplier
a - b = x
8 - 6 = 2
:
Check this
a - b = 2 (1*2)
a + b = 14; (7*2)
a * b = 48: (24*2)
:
The numbers are 8 and 6; their products = 48
Young invested GH150,000 and 2.5% per annum simple interest. how long will it take this amount to. yield an interest of GH11,250,00
Answer: 3 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Interest is calculated as:
= (P × R × T) / 100
where
P = principal = 150,000
R = rate = 2.5%.
I = interest = 11250
T = time = unknown.
I = (P × R × T) / 100
11250 = (150000 × 2.5 × T)/100
Cross multiply
1125000 = 375000T
T = 1125000/375000
T = 3
The time taken will be 3 years

A field book is a private notepad used by a surveyor to transcribe notes and is not considered a legal document True False
Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
A field book is a private notepad used by a surveyor to record measurements and notes.
Basically, the size of a field book is 200 millimeters × 120 millimeters (20 centimeters × 12 centimeters) and it's typically opened lengthwise. There are two (2) main types of field book and these includes;
I. Double-line field book.
II. Single-line field book.
As a general rule, it's best that all findings, entries (notes) and observations are recorded or made into a field book after each and every measurement have been taken by a surveyor.
In conclusion, a field book is considered to be a legal document used by surveyors to keep records of accomplished field work or work done in the field. Thus, it's not a private notepad used by a surveyor to transcribe notes.
Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
A field book is a private notepad used by a surveyor to transcribe notes and is not considered a legal document is False.
Prove that the square of an odd number is always 1 more than a multiple of 4
Answer:
By these examples you are able to see that the square of an odd number is always 1 more than a multiple of 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
For examples,
Let's consider squares of 3, 11, 25, 37 and 131.
[tex] {3}^{2} = 9[/tex]
8 is a multiple of 4, and 9 is more than 8.
[tex] {11}^{2} = 121[/tex]
120 is a multiple of 4 and 121 is one more than it.
[tex] {25}^{2} = 625[/tex]
624 is a multiple of 4 and 625 is one more than it.
[tex] {37}^{2} = 1369[/tex]
1368 is a multiple of 4 and 1369 is one more than 1368.
[tex] {131}^{2} = 17161[/tex]
17160 is a multiple of 4.
