Answer:

[tex]\pi[/tex] radian

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that angle for a full circle is 2[tex]\pi[/tex]

In the given figure shape is semicircle

hence,

angle for semicircle will be half of angle of full circle

thus, angle for given figure = half of  angle for a full circle = 1/2 * 2[tex]\pi[/tex] = [tex]\pi[/tex]

Thus, answer is [tex]\pi[/tex] radian

alternatively, we also know that angle for a straight line is 180 degrees

while jeff was replacing the obstruction of light on a cell tower, he accidentally dropped his cell phone. If he was 150 ft up at the time, approximately how long did it take the phone to reach the ground

Answers

Answer:

3.19 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Phone gets dropped from a Height = 150 ft

To find:

Time taken for the phone to reach the ground = ?

Solution:

First of all, let us learn about the formula of distance in terms of Initial speed u; Time t and Acceleration a:

[tex]s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]

Here the phone is dropped from a height so a = g m/[tex]s^2[/tex] i.e. acceleration due to gravity.

g = 9.8 m/[tex]s^2[/tex]

s = 150 ft

Initial velocity, u = 0

Putting all the values in the formula:

[tex]150=0 t+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\Rightarrow 50=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8 \times t^2\\\Rightarrow t^2=\dfrac{50}{4.9 }\\\Rightarrow t^2=10.20\\\Rightarrow t = 3.19\ sec[/tex]

So, the time taken is 3.19 seconds.

5. When looking at a map, a student realizes that Birmingham is nearly due west of Atlanta, and Nashville is nearly due north of Birmingham. If the distance from Atlanta to Birmingham is roughly 150 mi, and the distance from Birmingham to Nashville is roughly 200 mi, what is the estimated distance from Atlanta to Nashville?

Answers

Answer: 250 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we can think in a triangle rectangle:

The distance from Birmingham to Atlanta is roughly 150 mi, and this is one of the cathetus.

And the distance from Birmingham to Nashville is roughly 200 mi, this is the other cathetus of the triangle.

Now, the distance from Atlanta to Nashville will be the hypotenuse of this triangle rectangle.

Now we can apply the Pythagorean's theorem:

A^2 + B^2 = H^2

Where A and B are the cathetus, and H is the hypotenuse:

Then:

H = √(A^2 + B^2)

H = √(150^2 + 200^2) mi = √(62,500) mi = 250 mi

Then the estimated distance from Atlanta to Nashville is 250 mi

Y is the midpoint of XZ. If XZ = 8x − 2 and YZ = 3x + 3, find x.

Answers

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

2( 3x + 3) = 8x - 2

6x + 6 = 8x -2

6x + 8 = 8x

8 = 2x

4 = x

It is given that Y is the midpoint of XZ. If XZ = 8x − 2 and YZ = 3x + 3, So the value of x is x = 4.

What does a midpoint mean?

Midpoint, as the word suggests, means the point which lies in the middle of something.

Midpoint of a line segment means a point which lies in the mid of the given line segment.

We have been given that Y is the midpoint of XZ. If XZ = 8x − 2 and YZ = 3x + 3, we need to find x.

We know that;

2(YZ) = XZ  

Substitute in the values

2( 3x + 3) = 8x - 2

Use the Distributive Property

6x + 6 = 8x -2

6x + 8 = 8x

8 = 2x

4 = x

Switch the sides to make it easier to read

x = 4

It is given that Y is the midpoint of XZ. If XZ = 8x − 2 and YZ = 3x + 3, So the value of x is x = 4.

How many solutions does the system of equations below have y=3x+2 y-2x=4

Answers

it has one solution
(2,8)
x=2
y=8

Answer:

Only one solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x +2

y -2x =4

y - 2x = 4

=> y = 2x +4

y = 3x + 2

y = 2x + 4

Since both equations are not the same, so the answer cannot be "infinitely many solutions".

They both intersect each other 1 point, so it cannot be "no solutions".

So the answer is "Only 1 solution".

pls help:Find all the missing elements:

Answers

Answer:

B = 48.7° , C = 61.3° , b = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find B we must first angle C

To find angle C we use the sine rule

That's

[tex] \frac{ |a| }{ \sin(A) } = \frac{ |c| }{ \sin(C) } [/tex]

From the question

a = 15

A = 70°

c = 14

So we have

[tex] \frac{15}{ \sin(70) } = \frac{14}{ \sin(C) } [/tex]

[tex] \sin(C) = \frac{14 \sin(7 0 ) }{15} [/tex]

[tex]C = \sin^{ - 1} ( \frac{14 \sin(70) }{15} ) [/tex]

C = 61.288

C = 61.3° to the nearest tenth

Since we've found C we can use it to find B.

Angles in a triangle add up to 180°

To find B add A and C and subtract it from 180°

That's

A + B + C = 180

B = 180 - A - C

B = 180 - 70 - 61.3

B = 48.7° to the nearest tenth

To find b we can use the sine rule

That's

[tex] \frac{ |a| }{ \sin(A) } = \frac{ |a| }{ \sin(B) } [/tex]

[tex] \frac{15}{ \sin(70) } = \frac{ |b| }{ \sin(48.7) } [/tex]

[tex] |b| = \frac{15 \sin(48.7) }{ \sin(70) } [/tex]

b = 11.9921

b = 12.0 to the nearest tenth

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking a careful look at the graph above, the graph depicts that there is sizeable growth or increase in the rate of interest between 2008 to 2012. However, the actual increase in the rate of interest between 2008 - 2012 is (3.152% - 3.141%) = 0.011%. This change is very small compared to what is portrayed by the pictorial representation of the bar graph. This could be due to the scaling of the vertical axis which didn't start from 0, thereby exaggerating the increase in the actual rate of interest. It will thus mislead observers into thinking the increase is huge.

Given the equations, which of the following represents z1 * z2? Using the same values in #6, which of the following represents z1/z2 in standard form?

The selected answers are incorrect.

Answers

Answer:

First Attachment : Option A,

Second Attachment : Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

z₁ = [tex]3(\cos ((\pi )/(6))+i\sin ((\pi )/(6)))[/tex] and z₂ = [tex]4(\cos ((\pi )/(3))+i\sin ((\pi )/(3)))[/tex]

Therefore if we want to determine z₁( z₂ ), we would have to find the trigonometric form of the following expression,

[tex]3(\cos ((\pi )/(6))+i\sin ((\pi )/(6)))*4(\cos ((\pi )/(3))+i\sin ((\pi )/(3)))[/tex]

( Combine expressions )

= [tex]12(\cos ( \pi /6+\pi / 3 ) + i\sin (\pi /6 +\pi / 3 )[/tex]

( Let's now add [tex]\pi / 6 + \pi / 3[/tex], further simplifying this expression )

[tex]\frac{\pi }{6}+\frac{\pi }{3} = \frac{\pi }{6}+\frac{\pi 2}{6} = \frac{\pi +\pi 2}{6} = \frac{3\pi }{6} = \pi / 2[/tex]

( Substitute )

[tex]12(\cos ( \pi /2 ) + i\sin ( \pi /2 ) )[/tex]

And therefore the correct solution would be option a, for the first attachment.

______________________________________________

For this second attachment, we would have to solve for the following expression,

[tex]\frac{3\left(\cos \left(\frac{\pi \:}{6}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi \:}{6}\right)\right)}{4\left(\cos \left(\frac{\pi \:}{3}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi \:}{3}\right)\right)}[/tex]

From which we know that cos(π/6) = √3 / 2, sin(π/6) = 1 / 2, cos(π/3) = 1 / 2, and sin(π/3) = √3 / 2. Therefore,

[tex]\:\frac{3\left(\cos \left(\frac{\pi }{6}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi }{6}\right)\right)}{4\left(\cos \left(\frac{\pi }{3}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi }{3}\right)\right)}:\quad \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{8}-i\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{8}-i\frac{3}{8} = \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{8}-\frac{3}{8}i[/tex]

Identify the types of programs you want to study (e.g., sitcoms, sports events, movies, news, children's programs, etc.). How large should the sample be for a specified margin of error

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is b.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

Suppose you want to study the length of time devoted to commercial breaks for two different types of television programs. Identify the types of programs you want to study (e.g., sitcoms, sports events, movies, news, children's programs, etc.). How large should the sample be for a specified margin of error.

(a) It depends only on the specified margin of error.

(b) It depends on not only the specified margin of error, but also on the confidence level.

(c) It depends only on the confidence level.

Solution:

The (1 - α) % confidence interval for population mean is:

[tex]CI=\bar x\pm z_{\alpha/2}\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]  

The margin of error for this interval is:

 [tex]MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

Then the sample size formula is:

[tex]n=[\frac{z_{\alpha/2}\times \sigma}{MOE}]^{2}[/tex]

The sample size is dependent upon the confidence level (1 - α) %, the standard deviation and the desired margin of error.

Thus, the correct option is b.

The size of the sample 'n' depends on not only the specified margin of error, but also on the confidence level.

Given :

Suppose you want to study the length of time devoted to commercial breaks for two different types of television programs.

The following steps can be used in order to determine the size of the sample be for a specified margin of error:

Step 1 - The formula of the confidence interval is given below:

[tex]\rm CI =\bar{x}+z_{\alpha /2}\times \dfrac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

Step 2 - Now, for this interval, the formula of margin of error is given below:

[tex]\rm MOE = z_{\alpha /2}\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

Step 3 - Solve the above expression for sample size 'n'.

[tex]\rm n = \left(\dfrac{z_{\alpha /2}\times \sigma}{MOE}\right)^2[/tex]

From the above steps, it can be concluded that the correct option is B) It depends on not only the specified margin of error, but also on the confidence level.

E) Explain.

Answers

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ANOVA and Regression output for an application relating maintenance expense (dollars per month) to usage (hours per week) for a particular brand of computer terminal is provided.

(A)

The estimated regression equation equation is:

[tex]y=6.1092+0.8931x[/tex]

Here,

y = maintenance expense (dollars per month)

x = usage (hours per week) for a particular brand of computer terminal

(B)

Consider the Regression output.

The hypothesis to test whether monthly maintenance expense is related to usage is:

H₀: The monthly maintenance expense is not related to usage, i.e. β = 0.

Hₐ: The monthly maintenance expense is related to usage, i.e. β ≠ 0.

Compute the test statistic as follows:

[tex]t=\frac{b}{S.E._{b}}=\frac{0.8931}{0.149}=5.99[/tex]

Compute the p-value as follows:

[tex]p-value=2\times P (t_{8}<5.99}=0.00033[/tex]

The null hypothesis will be rejected if the p-value is less than the significance level.

p-value = 0.00033 < α = 0.05

Reject the null hypothesis.

(C)

Monthly maintenance expense​ is related to usage.

(D)

Yes, the estimated regression equation provide a good fit.

Since the regression coefficient is significant it can be concluded that the regression equation estimated is a good fit.

From the regression output given, the solution to the questions given are outlined thus ;

[tex] Null \: hypothesis : H_{0} : β = 0 [/tex]

[tex] Alternative \: hypothesis : H_{1} : β ≠ 0 [/tex]

1.)

Regression equation :

y = bx + c b = slope ; c = intercept

Hence, the estimated regression equation is;

y = 0.8931x + 6.1092

2.)

We can calculate the T-statistic value thus ;

[tex] T-statistic = \frac{b}{SE_{b}}[/tex] [tex]SE_{b} = Standard \: error \: of \: slope[/tex] df = 8

Hence, the T-statistic is given as ;

[tex] T-statistic = \frac{0.8931}{0.149} = 5.99[/tex]

Pvalue (2 tailed) = 0.00033

Decison Region :

[tex] Reject \: H_{0} \: if \: Pvalue \: < \: α [/tex]

Since 0.00033 < 0.05 ; we reject the Null hypothesis.

3.)

Hence, we conclude that monthly expense is related to usage.

4.)

Since, the correlation Coefficient, β ≠ 0 ; Yes, the correlation provides a good fit as it is significant.

Apply the square root principle to solve (x-5)^2-40=0

Answers

Answer: {5 ± 2√10, 5 - 2√10}

Step-by-step explanation: First isolate the binomial squared by adding 40 to both sides to get (x - 5)² = 40.

Next, square root both sides to get x - 5 = ± √40.

Notice that root of 40 can be broken down to 2√10.

So we have x - 5 = ± 2√10.

To get x by itself, add 5 to both sides to get x = 5 ± 2√10.

So our answer is just {5 ± 2√10, 5 - 2√10}.

As a matter of form, the number will always come before the

radical term in your answer to these types of problems.

Answers

Answer:

a) Pr(drug user| positive test) = 0.3333

b) The probability that he will failed his first test = 0.9703

c) the probability that he is a drug user since  failed his second drug test

= 0.961165

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Suppose that 1% of the employees of a certain company use illegal drugs.

Probability of illegal drug user = 0.01

Probability of user that do not use drug = 1 - 0.01 = 0.99

From the person that is a illegal drug user, the company performs random drug tests that return positive results = 0.99

Therefore, the negative result for illegal drug user = 1 - 0.99 = 0.01

However, it also has a 2% false positive rate.

i.e the probability of the user that do not use drug has a positive result of 2% = 0.02

Thus, the probability of the user that do not use drug has a negative result of = 1 - 0.02

= 0.98

We are tasked to answer the following questions.

a) Steve, an employee at the company, has a positive test. What is the probability that he is a drug user?

i.e This employee we are taking about is a drug user and he has a positive test.

Thus;

Pr(drug user| positive test) = [tex]\dfrac{0.99 \times 0.01}{0.99 \times 0.01+ 0.02 \times 0.99}[/tex]

Pr(drug user| positive test) = [tex]\dfrac{0.0099}{0.0099+0.0198}[/tex]

Pr(drug user| positive test) = [tex]\dfrac{0.0099}{0.0297}[/tex]

Pr(drug user| positive test) = 0.3333

b) Knowing he failed his first test, what is the probability that Steve will fail his next drug test?

The probability that he will failed his first test = ((0.01 × 0.01) + (0.99×0.98))

The probability that he will failed his first test = ( 1 × 10⁻⁴ + 0.9702)

The probability that he will failed his first test = 0.9703

c)  Steve just failed his second drug test. Now, what is the probability that he is a drug user?

the probability that he is a drug user since he  failed his second drug test using Bayes theorem can be expressed as:

= [tex]\dfrac{0.01 \times(0.99\times 0.99)}{0.01 \times (0.99 \times0.99)+ 0.99(0.02 \times0.02)}[/tex]

the probability that he is a drug user since failed his second drug test

= [tex]\dfrac{0.01 \times(0.9801)}{0.01 \times (0.9801)+ 0.99(4 \times 10^{-4})}[/tex]

the probability that he is a drug user since  failed his second drug test

= [tex]\dfrac{0.009801}{0.009801+ 3.96 \times 10^{-4}}[/tex]

the probability that he is a drug user since  failed his second drug test

= 0.961165

For example, the proper divisors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6, but not 12. A positive integer $n$ is called double-perfect if the sum of its proper divisors equals $2n$. For example, 120 is double-perfect (and in fact is the smallest double-perfect number) because its proper divisors are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 24, 30, 40, and 60, and their sum is 240, which is twice 120.
