Laura lives 15 miles east of Kevin’s place. Kevin lives 8 miles south of Michelle’s place. How far does Michelle live from Laura’s place?
17 miles
24 miles
32 miles
36 miles

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

17 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define:

North as the positive y-axis

East as the positive x-axis.

We know that Laura lives 15 miles east of Kevin's place.

Kevin lives 8 miles south of Michelle's place.

So, if we define the origin, (0, 0) as Laura's place.

From:

"that Laura lives 15 miles east of Kevin's place."

We have that the location of Kevin's house is 15 miles west from Laura's place, then Kevin's house is at:

(0, 0) + (-15mi, 0) = (-15mi, 0)

From Kevin lives 8 miles south of Michelle's place, we know that Michelle's live 8 miles north of Kevin's place.

Then the location of Michele's house is the location of Kevin's plus (0, 8mi).

Michelle's house is located at:

(-15mi, 0) + (0, 8mi)  =(-15mi, 8mi)

Now we want to find the distance between Michelle's house and Laura's house.

Michelle's house is at (-15mi, 8mi)

Laura's house is at (0mi, 0mi)

Remember that the distance between two points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by:

[tex]D = \sqrt{(a - c)^2 + (b - d)^2}[/tex]

Then the distance between  (-15mi, 8mi) and (0mi, 0mi) is:

[tex]D = \sqrt{(-15mi - 0mi)^2 + (8mi - 0mi)^2} = 17mi[/tex]

The correct option is the first one, 17 miles.

Two different businesses model their profits over 15 years, where x is the year, f(x) is the profits of a garden shop, and g(x) is the profits of a construction materials business. Use the data to determine which function is exponential, and use the table to justify your answer.

1. f(x) is exponential; an exponential function increases more slowly than a linear function.
2. f(x) is exponential; f(x) increased more overall than g(x).
3. g(x) is exponential; g(x) has a higher starting value and higher ending value.
4. g(x) is exponential; an exponential function increases faster than a linear function.

Answers

Hi there!

[tex]\large\boxed{\text{Choice 4}}[/tex]

We can look at each function, f(x) and g(x), to determine which is exponential.

Use slope formula: m = y2-y1/x2-x1

f(x) starts off with a slope at about $1800/year, but becomes about $1100/year.

g(x) starts off with a slope of about $1500/year, but becomes about $1874/year.

Thus, g(x) is exponential, because g(x)'s slope is increasing across the interval.

Ed decided to build a storage box. At first, he was planning to build a cubical box with edges of length n
inches. To increase the amount of storage, he decided to make the box 1 inch taller and 2 inches longer,
while keeping its depth at n inches. The volume of the box Ed built has a volume how many cubic inches
greater than the box he originally planned to build?
O 3n2 + 2n
312 + 3n+3
O 6n2 + 3n
O 6n2 + 3n+3

Answers

Given:

Edge of a cubic box = n inches.

He decided to make the box 1 inch taller and 2 inches longer, while keeping its depth at n inches.

To find:

How many cubic inches greater than the box he originally planned to build?

Solution:

Edge of a cubic box is n inches, so the volume of the original cube is:

[tex]V_1=(edge)^3[/tex]

[tex]V_1=n^3[/tex]

According to the given information,

New width of the box = n+1

New length of the box = n+2

New height of the box = n

So, the volume of the new box is:

[tex]V_2=Length\times width\times h[/tex]

[tex]V_2=(n+2)(n+1)n[/tex]

[tex]V_2=(n^2+2n+n+2)n[/tex]

[tex]V_2=(n^2+3n+2)n[/tex]

[tex]V_2=n^3+3n^2+2n[/tex]

Now, the difference between new volume and original volume is:

[tex]V_2-V_1=n^3+3n^2+2n-n^3[/tex]

[tex]V_2-V_1=3n^2+2n[/tex]

So, the volume of new box is 3n^2+2n cubic inches more than the original box.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

Find the least positive integer, written only by numbers 0, 1 and 2, which is divisible by 225.

Answers

Answer:

  1,222,200

Step-by-step explanation:

A search using a computer program found ...

  5432 × 225 = 1,222,200

__

1000 mod 225 = 100

4 × 225 = 900

This suggests that if we have some number of thousands whose digits total 9, that we will have the number of interest. Of course, we can add 200 to some number of thousands with a digit total of 7. The smallest such digit total will be had with the number 1222 using the specified digits {0, 1, 2}. This gives rise to the result above: 1222×1000 +200 = 1,222,200. It also explains why moving the 1 to the right will also give a multiple of 225.

Many fast-food restaurants have soft drink dispensers with preset amounts, so that when the operator merely pushes a button for the desired rink the cup is automatically filled. This method apparently saves time and seems to increase worker productivity. A researcher randomly selects 9 workers from a restaurant with automatic dispensers and 9 works from a restaurant with manual dispensers. At a 1% significance level, use the Mann-Whitney U Test to test whether workers with automatic dispensers are significantly more productive.
Automatic (Group 1): 153, 128, 143, 110, 152, 168, 144, 137, 118
Manual (Group 2): 105, 118, 129, 114, 125, 117, 106, 92, 126
1. What is the alternative hypothesis for this study?
i. Worker productivity is higher with automatic dispensers.
ii. Automatic dispensers fill cups faster than manual dispensers.
iii. Worker productivity is lower with automatic dispensers.
iv. There is no difference in worker productivity between restaurants with automatic and manual dispensers.
2. What rank will be given to the observation value, 118 that is in both the automatic and manual groups? (Round answer to 1 decimal).

a. Circular reasoning
b. False dilemma
c. Appeal to consequence
d. Ad hominem
e. Correlation implies causation

Answers

Answer:

d. Ad hominem

Step-by-step explanation:

A fallacy can be defined as a mistaken or false belief that are based on illogical arguments or reasoning.

However, a lot of people might actually think it to be true but it isn't. There are various types of fallacy, these include;

I. Black or white.

II. Non sequitur.

III. Appeal to moderation.

IV. Bandwagon.

V. Appeal to authority.

VI. Straw man.

VII. Oversimplification or hasty generalization.

VIII. Appeal to ignorance.

IX. Appeal to pity.

X. Ad hominem.

Ad hominem can be defined as a type of fallacy in which the motive, character, or some other aspect of a person is attacked rather than his or her position.

This ultimately implies that, Ad hominem is typically based on prejudices, emotions, or feelings rather than appealing to reason, intellect or substance.

In this scenario, John Bardeen's research work at the Advanced Institute for Physics has progressed so slowly that even his colleagues call him a plodder. As a result, the speaker concluded that it's prudent at present not to take seriously his current theory on how strings constitute the smallest of subatomic particles. Thus, the logical fallacy described above is an ad hominem because John's slowness in his research work is bone of contention for the speaker rather than analyzing and concentrating on his theory about strings.

Answers

Answer:

After 10 years, Julie's account balance will be $ 363.88 and Leah's account balance will be $ 411.75, thus Leah will have more money in her account.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Julie invests $ 200 per month in an account that earns 6% interest per year, compounded monthly, and Leah invests $ 250 per month in an account that earns 5% interest per year, compounded monthly, to determine the amount of each after 10 years, the following calculations must be performed:

200 x (1 + 0.06 / 12) ^ 10x12 = X

200 x 1.005 ^ 120 = X

200 x 1.8193 = X

363.88 = X

250 x (1 + 0.05 / 12) ^ 10x12 = X

250 x 1.00416 ^ 120 = X

250 x 1.647 = X

411.75 = X

Therefore, after 10 years, Julie's account balance will be $ 363.88 and Leah's account balance will be $ 411.75, thus Leah will have more money in her account.

A merchant keeps marble in a cylindrical plastic container that has a diameter of 28cm and height of 35cm. A marble has a diameter of 25mm. Determine the number of marbles that can be stored in such a container if air space accounts for 20% between marbles.​

Answers

Answer:

2107 marbles can be stored in the container.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a merchant keeps marble in a cylindrical plastic container that has a diameter of 28cm and height of 35cm, and a marble has a diameter of 25mm, to determine the number of marbles that can be stored in such a container if air space accounts for 20 % between marbles, the following calculation must be performed, knowing that the volume of a cylinder is equal to height x π x radius²:

35 x 3.14 x (28/2) ² = X

109.9 x (14 x 14) = X

109.9 x 196 = X

21,540.4 = X

In turn, the volume of each 25mm diameter marble is equal to:

25mm = 2.5cm

4/3 x 3.14 x 1.25³ = X

4.18666 x 1.953125 = X

8.1770 = X

21,540.4 x 0.8 = 17,232.32

17,232.32 / 8,177 = 2,107.41

Therefore, 2107 marbles can be stored in the container.

In a test of a heat-seeking rocket, a first rocket is launched at 2000 fts and the heat-seeking rocket is launched along the same flight path 20 s later at a speed of 3000 fts. Find
the timest, and t, of flight of the rockets until the heat-seeking rocket destroys the first rocket
What are the times of the flight?

Answers

Answer:

Time of flight of first rocket = 60 seconds

Time of flight of second rocket = 40 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time of flight of first rocket be t1.

Since the second rocket is launched 20 seconds later, then it means that;

t1 = t2 + 20

Where t2 is the time of flight of the second rocket.

When destruction has occurred, it means that both of the rockets would have covered the same distance.

We know that;

Distance = speed × time

Thus;

2000t1 = 3000t2

We know that t1 = t2 + 20

Thus;

2000(t2 + 20) = 3000t2

2000t2 + 40000 = 3000t2

3000t2 - 2000t2 = 40000

1000t2 = 40000

t2 = 40000/1000

t2 = 40 seconds

Thus;

t1 = 40 + 20

t1 = 60 seconds
