Meg is 6 years older than Victor. Meg's age is 2 years less than five times Victor's age. The equations below model the relationship between Meg's age (m) and Victor's age (v):

m = v + 6
m = 5v − 2

Which is a possible correct method to find Meg's and Victor's ages?

Solve m + 6 = 5m − 2 to find the value of m.
Write the points where the graphs of the equations intersect the x axis.
Solve v + 6 = 5v − 2 to find the value of v.
Write the points where the graphs of the equations intersect the y axis.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Find the correct method

Option A is incorrect because we don't have m + 6 and 5m - 2

Option B is incorrect because that wouldn't show us the correct value

Option C is correct, once we solve for v, we can plug in v and get the value of m.  For example:  v + 6 = 5v - 2 → v + 8 = 5v → 8 = 4v → 2 = v.  Then we plug it into the other equation m = 2 + 6 → m = 8

Option D is incorrect because that wouldn't show us the correct value.

Answer: Option C

c. has a Binomial distribution with n=21 and p=50%
d. has a Binomial distribution with n=21 and p=1/6
e. has a Binomial distribution with n=31 and p=1/6

Answers

Answer:

Hence the correct option is option c has a Binomial distribution with n=21 and p=50%.

Step-by-step explanation:

1)  

A coin is tossed 19 times,  

P(Head)=0.5  

P(Tail)=0.5  

We have to find the probability of a total number of heads in all the coin tosses equals 9.  

This can be solved using the binomial distribution. For binomial distribution,  

P(X=x)=C(n,x)px(1-p)n-x  

where n is the number of trials, x is the number of successes, p is the probability of success, C(n,x) is a number of ways of choosing x from n.  

P(X=9)=C(19,9)(0.5)9(0.5)10  

P(X=9)=0.1762  

2)  

A fair die is rolled twice.  

Total number of outcomes=36  

Possibilities of getting sum as 9  

S9={(3,6),(4,5)(5,4),(6,3)}  

The total number of spots showing in all the die rolls equals 9 =4/36=0.1111  

3)  

The event of getting a good number of spots on a die roll is actually no different from the event of heads on a coin toss since the probability of a good number of spots is 3/6 = 1/2, which is additionally the probability of heads. the entire number of heads altogether the tosses of the coin plus the entire number of times the die lands with a good number of spots has an equivalent distribution because the total number of heads in 19+2= 21 tosses of the coin. The distribution is binomial with n=21 and p=50%.

Consider the line L(t)=⟨5+t,1+5t⟩. Then:
Choose perpendicular, parallel or neither. (PS. Answers below may not be true.)

Answers

If L(t) = ⟨5 + t, 1 + 5t⟩, then the tangent vector to L(t) is

dL/dt = ⟨1, 5⟩

Any line parallel to L(t) will have the same tangent vector, up to some scalar factor (that is, if the tangent vector is a multiple of ⟨1, 5⟩).

Any line r(t) with tangent vector T(t) = dr/dt that is perpendicular to L(t) will satisfy

T(t) • ⟨1, 5⟩ = 0

• r(t) = ⟨-5, -2t, 1 - 10t⟩ is parallel to L(t) because its tangent vector is

T(t) = ⟨-2, -10⟩ = -2 ⟨1, 5⟩

• r(t) = ⟨1 + 1.5t, 3 + 7.5t⟩ is parallel to L(t) because

T(t) = ⟨1.5, 7.5⟩ = 1.5 ⟨1, 5⟩

• r(t) = ⟨-2 - t, 2 - 2t⟩ is neither parallel nor perpendicular to L(t) because

T(t) = ⟨-1, -2⟩ ≠ k ⟨1, 5⟩

for any real k (in other words, there is no k such that -1 = k and -2 = 5k), and

⟨-1, -2⟩ • ⟨1, 5⟩ = -1 - 10 = -11 ≠ 0

• r(t) = ⟨3 + 15t, -3t⟩ is perpendicular to L(t) because

T(t) = ⟨15, -3⟩

and

Farmer Dave harvested his corn. He stored 5/9 of his corn in one large silo and ¾ of the remaining corn in a small silo. The rest was taken to market to be sold.
a. What fraction of the corn was stored in the small silo?
b. If he harvested 18 tons of corn, how many tons did he take to market?

Answers

After storing 5/9 in the large silo there was 4/9 left ( 1-5/9 = 4/9)

A. Multiply 4/9 by 3/4:

4/9 x 3/4 = 12/36 = 1/3

1/3 of the corn was in the small silo.

B. 1-5/9 -1/3 = 4/9-1/3 = 4/9-3/9 = 1/9

1/9 of the corn went to market:

18 x 1/9 = 18/9 = 2

2 ton went to market.

what is the distance between the points (0, 10) and (–9, 1).

Answers

Answer:

9√2 units

Explanation:

Coordinates of point 1 = (0,10)

Coordinates of point 2 = (-9,1)

distance

=√[(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)]²

= √[(-9-0)²+(1-10)]²

=> √[(-9)²+(-9)]²

=> √(81+81)

=> √162

=> 9√2

So, the distance between these points is 9√2 units.

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf \sqrt {145} \ or \ 12.04}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between 2 points is calculated using the following formula.

[tex]d= \sqrt {(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2)[/tex]

In this formula, (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the coordinates of the two points.

We know the two points are (4, -9) and (5,3). If we match the values of the points and the coordinating variable, we see that:

x₁ = 4y₁= -9 x₂ = 5 y₂ = 3

Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex]d= \sqrt { ( 5 -4)^2 + ( 3 --9)^2[/tex]

Solve inside the parentheses.

(5-4)= 1 (3 --9) = (3+9) = 12

[tex]d= \sqrt {(1)^2 + (12)^2}[/tex]

Solve the exponents.

(1)² = 1 *1 = 1 (12)² = 12 * 12 = 144

[tex]d= \sqrt{ 1+144}[/tex]

Add.

[tex]d= \sqrt{145[/tex]

Take the square root.

[tex]d=12.04159458[/tex]

Let's round to the nearest hundredth. The 1 in the thousandth place tells us to leave the 4 in the hundredth place.

[tex]d \approx 12.04[/tex]

The distance between the 2 points is √145 or approximately 12.04.

We can obtain the value of LN by using the pythagoras theory as illustrated:

M ² = ML² + LN²

19² = 9² + LN²

361 = 81 + LN²

361 – 81 = LN²

280 = LN²

Take the square root of both side

Answer:

x= (2+ √ 34) /5 , (2- √ 34) /5

Step-by-step explanation:

Find x so that the points (x,x+1), (x+2,x+3) and (x+3,2x+4) form a right-angled triangle.

Answers

Let a, b, and c be vectors each starting at the origin and terminating at the points (x, x + 1), (x + 2, x + 3), and (x + 3, 2x + 4), respectively.

Then the vectors a - b, a - c, and b - c are vectors that point in directions parallel to each of the legs formed by the triangle with these points as its vertices.

If this triangle is to contain a right angle, then exactly one of these pairs of vectors must be orthogonal. In other words, one of the following must be true:

(a - b) • (a - c) = 0

or

(a - b) • (b - c) = 0

or

(a - c) • (b - c) = 0

We have

a - b = (x, x + 1) - (x + 2, x + 3) = (-2, -2)

a - c = (x, x + 1) - (x + 3, 2x + 4) = (-3, -x - 3)

b - c = (x + 2, x + 3) - (x + 3, 2x + 4) = (-1, -x - 1)

Case 1: If (a - b) • (a - c) = 0, then

(-2, -2) • (-3, -x - 3) = (-2)×(-3) + (-2)×(-x - 3) = 2x + 12 = 0   ==>   x = -6

which would make a - c = (-3, 3) and b - c = (-1, 5), and their dot product is not zero. Then the triangles vertices are at the points (-6, -5), (-4, -3), and (-3, -8).

Case 2: If (a - b) • (b - c) = 0, then

(-2, -2) • (-1, -x - 1) = (-2)×(-1) + (-2)×(-x - 1) = 2x + 4 = 0   ==>   x = -2

which would make a - c = (-3, -1) and b = (-1, 1), and their dot product is also not zero. The vertices are the points (-2, -1), (0, 1), and (1, 0).

Case 3: If (a - c) • (b - c) = 0, then

(-3, -x - 3) • (-1, -x - 1) = (-3)×(-1) + (-x - 3)×(-x - 1) = x ² + 4x + 6 = 0

but the solutions to x here are non-real, so we throw out this case.

So there are two possible values of x that make a right triangle, x = -6 and x = -2.

Answers

That's a question about quadratic function.

Any quadratic function can be represented by the following form:

[tex]\boxed{f(x)=ax^2+bx+c}[/tex]

Example:

[tex]f(x)= -3x^2-9x+57[/tex] is a function where [tex]a=-3[/tex], [tex]b=-9[/tex] and [tex]c=57[/tex].

Okay, in our problem, we need to find the value of x when [tex]f(x)=0[/tex]. That's mean that the result of our function is equal to zero. Therefore, we have the quadratic equation below:

[tex]x^2+4x-5=0[/tex]

To solve a quadratic equation, we use the Bhaskara's formula. Do you remember the value of a, b and c? They going to be important right now. This is the Bhaskara's formula:

[tex]\boxed{x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} }[/tex]

So, let's see the values of a, b and c in our equation and apply them in the Bhaskara's formula:

In [tex]x^2+4x-5=0[/tex] equation, [tex]a=1[/tex], [tex]b=4[/tex] and [tex]c=-5[/tex]. Let's replace those values:

[tex]x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-4\pm \sqrt{4^2-4\times1\times(-5)} }{2\cdot1}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-4\pm \sqrt{16-(-20)} }{2}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-4\pm \sqrt{16 + 20)} }{2}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-4\pm \sqrt{36} }{2}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-4\pm 6 }{2}[/tex]

From now, we have two possibilities:

To add:

[tex]x_1 = \frac{-4+6}{2} \\x_1=\frac{2}{2} \\x_1=1[/tex]

To subtract:

[tex]x_2=\frac{-4-6}{2} \\x_2=\frac{-10}{2} \\x_2=-5[/tex]

Therefore, the result of our problem is: [tex]x_1 = 1[/tex] and [tex]x_2=-5[/tex].
