On a Job application Doris gave her age as 32 years. Her actual age at the time was about 27. What is the relative error fo her age?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Relative error = 0.19

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Measured age = 32 years

Actual age = 27 years

Relative error =?

Next, we shall determine the absolute error. This can be obtained as follow:

Measured age = 32 years

Actual age = 27 years

Absolute error =?

Absolute error = | Measured – Actual |

Absolute error = | 32 – 27 |

Absolute error = 5 years

Finally, we shall determine the relative error. This can be obtained as follow:

Absolute error = 5 years

Actual age = 27 years

Relative error =?

Relative error = Absolute error / Actual years

Relative error = 5 / 27

Relative error = 0.19

Jeanette wants to raise $3,200 in a marathon fundraiser. Her sponsers will donate
$35 for each (whole) kilometer she runs this summer.
The minimum amount Jeanette will have to run to reach her goal of $3, 200 is
kilometers.

Answers

Total amount she wants to raise = $3200

Amount she'll get for each kilometer = $35

So, number of kilometers she need to run

= Total amount she wants to raise/Amount she'll get for each kilometer

= $3200/$35

= 91.42....

Since her sponser is will donate only for whole kilometers she'll have to run 92 km.

Equation:  [tex]70=(x+3)x[/tex]

x = -10 or x = 7

x = 7 (width can't be negative)

x + 3 = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the width of the rectangle by  x.  "The length of a rectangle EXCEEDS the width by 3" means the length is 3 LONGER than the width, so the length is represented by the expression  x + 3.

Area = (length)(width)

70 = (x + 3)x

Multiply out the right side.

[tex]70=x^2+3x\\x^2+3x-70=0[/tex]

Factor the left side.

[tex](x+10)(x-7)=0[/tex]

Each binomial could equal 0, so

[tex]x+10=0 \text{ or }x-7=0\\x=-10\text{ or }x=7[/tex]

The negative solution does not make sense as the width of a rectangle.

x = 7, making the length, x + 3 = 10

Answer:

Pls mark this as brainiest

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the rectangle = length x breadth

consider 'x' to be width

therefore length = x+3

area = (x+3)*x

Area = 70 square

x = 7

x+3 = 7+3

      = 10

7 x 10

= 70

2. What are the last 2 digits of 1 + 2 + 3 + + 2005 2006​

Answers

Let S be the sum. So you have

S = 1 + 2 + 3 + … + 2004 + 2005 + 2006

as well as

S = 2006 + 2005 + 2004 + … + 3 + 2 + 1

Then

2S = (1 + 2006) + (2 + 2005) + … + (2005 + 2) + (2006 + 1)

2S = 2007 + 2007 + … + 2007 + 2007

2S = 2006 × 2007

S = (2006 × 2007)/2

S = 2,013,021

which makes the last two digits 21.

The rocket reaches its greatest height at

second(s)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is most easily solved with calculus, believe it or not. It is way more direct and to the point, with a whole lot less math!

The position function is given. The velocity function is the first derivative of the position, so if we find the velocity function and set it equal to 0, we can solve for the amount of time it takes for the rocket to reach its max height. Remember from physics that at the top of a parabolic path, the velocity is 0.

If:

[tex]s(t)=-16t^2+112t+360[/tex], then the velocity function, the first derivative is:

v(t) = -32t + 112 and solve for t:

-112 = -32t so

t = 3.5 seconds. Now we know how long it takes to get to the max height, we just need to find out what the max height is.

Go back to the position function and sub in 3.5 for t to tell us that position of the rocket at 3.5 seconds, which translates to the max height:

[tex]s(3.5)=-16(3.5)^2+112(3.5)+360[/tex] and

s(3.5) = 206 feet. I imagine that your answer, if you had to choose one from the list, would be 200 feet, rounded a lot.

Dan invests £18790 into his bank account. He receives 5.9% per year simple interest. How
much will Dan have after 2 years? Give your answer to the nearest penny where appropriate.

Answers

Answer: £21007.22

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the interest amount using the formula SI = (P × R × T) / 100.

SI = interest amount P = principle amount = £18790R = interest rate(in percentage) = 5.9T = time(in years) = 2

SI = (P × R × T) / 100 = (18790 × 5.9 × 2)/100 = 221722/100 = £2217.22

The total amount = principle amount + interest amount

= £18790 + £2217.22 = £21007.22

Graph the following equations by plotting 3 points and then connecting the points to form a line. Show your work to find the 3 points and then list the ordered pairs you used as part of your answer.

Answers

Answer:

The way I would tackle these types of problems would be to make a table, then graph the points using the results I get.

Step-by-step explanation:

So explaining the table is kinda hard since I suck at explaining, so I've attached a file showing the table I've made for number 1.

First Step:

Make the table. Make it a 3x4 table. For the top row, put y, the equation (I put 'y=2x' as shown in number 1), then x. Then for the left column, go down by one box, then put: -1, 0, 1. Really, you can put any numbers, but to make it easy for yourself, just write the numbers I've listed. These will be your y-values you'll be substituting.

Second Step:

a.) Plugging in the numbers. For the middle column, I've put down y=2x in each box, as shown in my table. Then for each of those boxes, plug in the numbers to the left of them and substitute them for the y-value. For example, look at the second row. The left box has '-1', so I replaced the 'y' in the equation and got '(-1)=2x'.

b.) After substituting the y-values, solve for x. For this case, you'll need to divide both sides by 2. If it doesn't make much sense, think about a seesaw. If you have 5 pounds on both sides, the seesaw will stay balanced. Add an additional 5 pounds to one side, then the seesaw will start tipping towards the heavier sides. So in order to keep an equation balanced, you must do any action to both sides of the equation. After diving both sides by 2, you'll get the value for x.

Final Step:

After finding the x-values for each of the y-values, it's time to graph the equations. Remember, x is left to right and y is down to up. To graph them, let's use the second row for example. y=-1 and x=-0.5. So all you need to do is to start from the origin (0,0), then go half a unit to the left, as x is negative, then go a unit down, as y is negative, then make a point. The rest should be pretty straight forward.

After making all three points, just get a ruler or any straight edge, then align it along those three points, then just make a line, and boom! You've solved number 1! For the purpose of saving my time, I'm pretty sure you can solve the rest using what I've just told you. Good luck!

Answers

Factorize the numerator:

4r + 20 = 4r + 4×5 = 4 (r + 5)

I think you meant to say r ≠ -5, which means r + 5 ≠ 0, so that the denominator is never zero and so the expression is defined (no division by zero). This lets you cancel the factor of r + 5 in the numerator with the one in the denominator:

(4r + 20)/(r + 5) = 4 (r + 5)/(r + 5) = 4

Jack rides his bike 4 miles in 1/3 of an hour. What is jack unit rate in miles per hour?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 of an hour = 20 minutes = 4 miles

1 minute = 4/20 miles

60 minutes = 4/20 x 60 miles

                   = 4 x 3 miles

                   = 12 miles

60 minutes = 1 hour

=> 1 hour = 12 miles

Jacks unit rate is 12 miles/hr

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways of doing this problem. I think the easiest way is to use a decimal in the denominator and round

4/0.333333333 = 12.000000001

The answer is obviously meant to be 12.

The other way is more sophisticated, but more accurate.

4/1 // 1/3               This is a 4 tier fraction. The rule is to invert the denominator (turn the bottom fraction upside down) and multiply.

4/1 * 3/1 = 12

The first method is easier to understand. The second is more accurate and more useful for physics.

The difference between  CDs sold between 1993 and 2001 will be 76.7 × 10⁵.

What is subtraction?

To subtract in mathematics is to take something away from a group or a number of objects.

In another meaning subtraction is a mathematical operation such that two values are going to subtract and give a resultant value.

The group's total number of items decreases or becomes lower when we subtract from it.

Given that sell of CDs in 1993 is 2.3 × 10⁶.

Sell of CDs in 2001 is 7.9 × 10⁷.

The difference between sell is = 7.9 × 10⁷ - 2.3 × 10⁶

76.7 × 10⁵ hence it will the correct option.

Determine the value of K that will cause f(x)=Kx^2+4x-3 to intersect the line g(x)=2x-7 at one point. SHOW ALL YOUR STEPS, DON'T USE DECIMALS INSTEAD USE FRACTIONS PLEASE!!!!!

Answers

Given:

The function are:

The graph of f(x) intersect the line g(x) at one point.

To find:

The value of K.

Solution:

The graph of f(x) intersect the line g(x) at one point. It means the line g(x) is the tangent line.

We have,

[tex]f(x)=Kx^2+4x-3[/tex]

Differentiate this function with respect to x.

[tex]f'(x)=K(2x)+4(1)-(0)[/tex]

[tex]f'(x)=2Kx+4[/tex]

Let the point of tangency is [tex](x_0,y_0)[/tex]. So, the slope of the tangent line is:

[tex][f'(x)]_{(x_0,y_0)}=2Kx_0+4[/tex]

On comparing [tex]g(x)=2x-7[/tex] with slope-intercept form, we get

[tex]m=2[/tex]

So, the slope of the tangent line is 2.

[tex]x_0=\dfrac{-2}{2K}[/tex]

[tex]x_0=-\dfrac{1}{K}[/tex]

Putting [tex]x=-\dfrac{1}{K}[/tex] in the above equation, we get

[tex]y_0=2(-\dfrac{1}{K})-7[/tex]

[tex]y_0=-\dfrac{2}{K}-7[/tex]

Putting [tex]x=-\dfrac{1}{K}[/tex] and [tex]f(x)=-\dfrac{2}{K}-7[/tex] in f(x).

[tex]-\dfrac{2}{K}-7=K\left(-\dfrac{1}{K}\right)^2+4(-\dfrac{1}{K})-3[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{2}{K}-7=\dfrac{1}{K}-\dfrac{4}{K}-3[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{2}{K}-7=\dfrac{-3}{K}-3[/tex]

Multiply both sides by K.

[tex]-2-7K=-3-3K[/tex]
