Answer:
Lacy is 13 and Jack is 52
Step-by-step explanation:
In 3 years their ages will add up to 71 so you have to subtract 6 as there are two of them to get 65. Lacy's age is represented by x and since Jack is 4 times older his age is represented by 4x. So added together their age is 5x. So 5x=65. Then 65/5=13. So 13=x. So Lacy is 13 and Jack is 52 as 13x4 is 52.

A town recently dismissed 8 employees in order to meet their new budget reductions. The town had 9 employees over 50 years of age and 16 under 50. If the dismissed employees were selected at random, what is the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50? Express your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to four decimal places.
Answer:
The probability that at least 7 employees were over 50 is 0.0073%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a town recently dismissed 8 employees in order to meet their new budget reductions, and the town had 9 employees over 50 years of age and 16 under 50, if the dismissed employees were selected at random, to determine what is the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50, the following calculation must be performed:
9/25 x 8/24 x 7/23 x 6/22 x 5/21 x 4/20 x 3/19 = X
0.36 x 0.33 x 0.304 x 0.272 x 0.238 x 0.2 x 0.157 = X
0.000073 = X
100X = 0.0073
Therefore, the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50 is 0.0073%.

Find the distance between the points: (-1, 5) and (3, -3). In your final answer, include the formula and calculations that you used to find the distance.
Answer:
[tex]4\sqrt{5}[/tex] units
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between any two points on the x y plane (a,b) and (c,d) has one of two formulas. [tex]\sqrt{(a-c)^2+(b-d)^2}[/tex] or [tex]\sqrt{(c-a)^2+(d-b)^2}[/tex] if you use c-a you have to also use d-b, and the other way around for a-c and b-d. You can rearrange which order you add though. So with (-1,5) and (3,3) here is the math
[tex]\sqrt{(3-(-1))^2+((-3)-5)^2} \\\sqrt{4^2+(-8)^2} \\\sqrt{16+64}\\\sqrt{80}[/tex]
You could simplify this to [tex]4\sqrt{5}[/tex]

While planning a hiking trip, you examine a map of the trail you are going on hike. The scale on the map shows that 2 inches represents 5 miles.
If the trail measures 12 inches on the map, how long is the trail?
Answer:
30 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Scale = 2 inches represents 5 miles
This means that 2 inches in the map equals to 5 miles on ground ;
Hence, if the trail measures 12 inches on the map, the length on ground will be ; x
2 inches = 5 miles
12 inches = x miles
Cross multiply :
2x = (12 * 5)
2x = 60
x = 60 / 2
x = 30 miles

Please help me with this question.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
In a triangle, the sum of any two sides must be bigger than the third.
For the first one, 10+20=30 is not greater than 30, so this is not correct.
For B, 122+137 = 259 > 257, 257+137>122 , and 257 + 122 > 137. This works
For C, 8.6 + 2.7 = 11.3 < 12.2, so this does not work
For D, 1/6 + 1/5 = 5/(6*5) + 6/(6*5) = 5/30 + 6/30 = 11/30 < 1/2 = 15/30, so this does not work
What are the zeroes of f(x) = x2 - X - 2?
x= -2,1
x = 2, -1
x= -2, -1
x = 2,1
Answer:
x=2 x=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x^2 - X - 2
0= x^2 -x-2
Factor
0 =(x-2)(x+1)
Using the zero product property
x-2 =0 x+1 =0
x=2 x=-1
Answer:
x=2, -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We want to find the zeros of this function: f(x)=x²-x-2
The zeros are the values of x that will make f(x)=0
So that means in order to find the zeros, set f(x) as 0
In that case,
x²-x-2=0
Now let's solve the quadratic equation
We can do it by factoring
-x is the sum of two numbers, while -2 is the product of those two same numbers
Now think: which two numbers add up to -1, but multiply to get -2?
Those numbers are -2 and 1
Now factor the polynomial by FOIL:
(x-2)(x+1)=0
Split and solve
x-2=0
x=2
x+1=0
x=-1
The zeros are x=2, -1

Find the limit. Use l'Hospital's Rule if appropriate. If there is a more elementary method, consider using it. lim x→[infinity] ln(5x) 5x Step 1 As x → [infinity], ln(5x) → and 5x → .
Answer:
[tex]\lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{ln(5x)}{5x} = \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{1/x}{5} = \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{1}{5x} = 0[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
L'Hopital's rule says that, if both numerator and denominator diverge, then we can look at the limit of the derivates.
Here we have:
[tex]\lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{ln(5x)}{5x}[/tex]
The numerator is ln(5x) and when x tends to infinity, this goes to infinity
the denominator is 5x, and when x tends to infinity, this goes to inifinity
So both numerator and denominator diverge to infinity when x tends to infinity.
Then we can use L'Hopithal's rule.
The numerator is:
f(x) = Ln(5x)
then:
f'(x) = df(x)/dx = 1/x
and the denominator is:
g(x) = 5*x
then:
g'(x) = 5
So, if we use L'Hopithal's rule we get:
[tex]\lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{ln(5x)}{5x} = \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{1/x}{5} = \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{1}{5x} = 0[/tex]

Find the interval in which f(x) = 3x2 - 2x is decreasing.
Answer:
Option (3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given function is,
f(x) = 3x² - 2x
= [tex]3(x^{2} -\frac{2}{3}x)[/tex]
= [tex]3(x^{2} -\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{1}{9}-\frac{1}{9})[/tex]
= [tex]3(x^{2}-\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{1}{9})-\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
= [tex]3(x-\frac{1}{3})^2-\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Vertex of the parabola → [tex](\frac{1}{3},-\frac{1}{3})[/tex]
Here, leading coefficient is positive (+3),
Therefore, parabola will open upwards.
In a parabola opening upwards function decreases from negative infinity to the x value of the vertex.
Function will decrease in the interval (-∞, [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]).
Option (3) will be the answer.
A map has a scale in which 1.25 inches represents 250 miles.
How many miles does 1 inch represent?
Answer: 200 miles
Work Shown:
(1.25 inches)/(250 miles) = (1 inch)/(x miles)
(1.25)/(250) = 1/x
1.25x = 250*1 ..... cross multiplication
1.25x = 250
x = 250/(1.25)
x = 200 miles
Which of the binomials below is a factor of this trinomial?
x^2+8x+16
This is because the given expression factors to (x+4)(x+4), which condenses to (x+4)^2.
To factor, think of two numbers that A) multiply to 16, and B) add to 8. Those values would be 4 and 4
4+4 = 8
4*4 = 16
So that's how we end up with (x+4)(x+4). You can use the FOIL rule to expand that out and get x^2+8x+16 again to help verify you have the correct factorization.

rightacuteobtuserightobtuseStep-by-step explanation:
When the same problem is repeated, I like to solve it using a spreadsheet. That way, the formulas only need to be entered once, and the arithmetic is (almost) guaranteed to be done correctly.
A "form factor" computed from side lengths can be used to determine the type of triangle. Where 'c' is the long side, that factor can be computed as ...
f = a² +b² -c²
and interpreted as follows:
f = 0, right trianglef > 0, acute trianglef < 0, obtuse triangle(The sign of f matches the sign of the cosine of the largest angle computed using the law of cosines.)
Of course, a right triangle can also be identified by looking at the slopes of the sides of the triangle. If any pair of slopes has a product that is -1, or if any pair is 0 and "undefined", then the triangle will be a right triangle.

The attached spreadsheet is designed to accommodate a number of different problem requirements. It shows both side lengths and slopes, and it shows the "form factor" as described above. The final classification is shown at far right.

A department store mails a customer satisfaction survey to people who make credit card purchases at the store. This month, 3521 people made credit card purchases. Surveys are mailed to 278 of these people, chosen at random, and 172 people return the survey form. Identify the population and the sample.
Answer:
The population is the population of 3521 people who made credit card purchases.
The sample is the 172 people who returned the survey form.
Step-by-step explanation:
Department mails customers satisfactions forms to those who make credit cards purchase at the store, totaling 3521 people. Thus, the population is the population of 3521 people who made credit card purchases.
Surveys are mailed to 278 of these people, chosen at random, and 172 people return the survey form.
Thus the sample, that is, those from whom the data will be taken and expanded to the rest of the population, is the 172 people who returned the survey form.
The population is all 3521 people who made credit card purchases.
The sample is the 172 people who returned the survey form.

An automobile assembly line operation has a scheduled mean completion time, , of minutes. The standard deviation of completion times is minutes. It is claimed that, under new management, the mean completion time has decreased. To test this claim, a random sample of completion times under new management was taken. The sample had a mean of minutes. Can we support, at the level of significance, the claim that the mean completion time has decreased under new management
The question is incomplete. The complete question is :
An automobile assembly line operation has a scheduled mean completion time, μ, of 15.5 minutes. The standard deviation of completion times is 1.7 minutes. It is claimed that, under new management, the mean completion time has decreased. To test this claim, a random sample of 90 completion times under new management was taken. The sample had a mean of 15.4 minutes. Can we support, at the 0.1 level of significance, the claim that the mean completion time has decreased under new management?
Solution :
The given data :
n = 90
μ = 15.5
σ = 1.7
[tex]$\overline x$[/tex] = 15.4
So, the null hypothesis is : [tex]$H_0: \mu = 15.5$[/tex] is been tested against
Alternate hypothesis : [tex]$H_1 : \mu < 15.5 $[/tex] (one-tailed test)
Since, the sample size is sufficiently large and the sample deviation is known, we use the Z-test.
Under this test, the test statistic is given as :
[tex]$Z=\frac{\overline x - \mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}} \sim N(0,1)$[/tex]
Under [tex]H_0[/tex], we have
[tex]$Z_0=\frac{\overline x - \mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}} $[/tex]
[tex]$Z_0=\frac{15.4-15.5}{1.7/\sqrt{90}} $[/tex]
[tex]$Z_0=-0.56$[/tex]
The critical value for the test is [tex]$Z_{\alpha} = Z_{0.1} = -1.28$[/tex]
We observe that (-0.56 > -1.28), and so we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
No, there is no evidence to support the claim that the mean completion time has decreased.
Thus, we conclude that the mean completion time is 15.5 minutes.
