Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Two such terms are 7x^3*y^9 and -3x*y^5
Their quotient is
7x^3*y^9
--------------
-3x*y^5
This can be simplified as follows:
The numerical coefficients become -7/3.
x^3/x = x^3*x^1 = x^(3 - 1) = x^2 (we subtract the exponent of x in the denominator from the exponent of x in the numerator).
Next, y^9*y^5 = y^4.
The quotient in final reduced form is then (-7/3)x^2*y^4
In 2018, the population of a district was 25,000. With a continuous annual growth rate of approximately 4%, what will the
population be in 2033 according to the exponential growth function?
Round the answer to the nearest whole number.
Answer:
40,000 populationsStep-by-step explanation:
Initial population in 2018 = 25,000
Annual growth rate (in %) = 4%
Yearly Increment in population = 4% of 25000
= 4/100 * 25000
= 250*4
= 1000
This means that the population increases by 1000 on yearly basis.
To determine what the population will be in 2033, we need to first know the amount of years we have between 2018 and 2033.
Amount of years we have between 2018 and 2033 = 2033-2018
= 15 years
After 15 years, the population will have increased by 15*1000 i.e 15,000 more than the initial population.
Hence the population in 2033 will be Initial population + Increment after 15years = 25,000+15000 = 40,000 population.

If vectors i+j+2k, i+pj+5k and 5i+3j+4k are linearly dependent, the value of p is what?
Answer:
[tex]p = 2[/tex] if given vectors must be linearly independent.
Step-by-step explanation:
A linear combination is linearly dependent if and only if there is at least one coefficient equal to zero. If [tex]\vec u = (1,1,2)[/tex], [tex]\vec v = (1,p,5)[/tex] and [tex]\vec w = (5,3,4)[/tex], the linear combination is:
[tex]\alpha_{1}\cdot (1,1,2)+\alpha_{2}\cdot (1,p,5)+\alpha_{3}\cdot (5,3,4) =(0,0,0)[/tex]
In other words, the following system of equations must be satisfied:
[tex]\alpha_{1}+\alpha_{2}+5\cdot \alpha_{3}=0[/tex] (Eq. 1)
[tex]\alpha_{1}+p\cdot \alpha_{2}+3\cdot \alpha_{3}=0[/tex] (Eq. 2)
[tex]2\cdot \alpha_{1}+5\cdot \alpha_{2}+4\cdot \alpha_{3}=0[/tex] (Eq. 3)
By Eq. 1:
[tex]\alpha_{1} = -\alpha_{2}-5\cdot \alpha_{3}[/tex]
Eq. 1 in Eqs. 2-3:
[tex]-\alpha_{2}-5\cdot \alpha_{3}+p\cdot \alpha_{2}+3\cdot \alpha_{3}=0[/tex]
[tex]-2\cdot \alpha_{2}-10\cdot \alpha_{3}+5\cdot \alpha_{2}+4\cdot \alpha_{3}=0[/tex]
[tex](p-1)\cdot \alpha_{2}-2\cdot \alpha_{3}=0[/tex] (Eq. 2b)
[tex]3\cdot \alpha_{2}-6\cdot \alpha_{3} = 0[/tex] (Eq. 3b)
By Eq. 3b:
[tex]\alpha_{3} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \alpha_{2}[/tex]
Eq. 3b in Eq. 2b:
[tex](p-2)\cdot \alpha_{2} = 0[/tex]
If [tex]p = 2[/tex] if given vectors must be linearly independent.
The residents of a city voted on whether to raise property taxes. The ratio of yes votes to no votes was 5 to 6. If there were 4508 no votes, what was the total
number of votes
Answer:
total number of votes was 8265.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratio of yes to no votes = 5:6
we know by rule of indices that
a/b = a*x/b*x
let the no. of people who voted yes be 5x
the no. of people who voted no be 6x
Thus, total no of votes = 5x+6x= 11x
given that
If there were 4508 no votes
thus,
6x = 4508
x = 4508/6 = 751 1/3 = 751.33
Thus, total no. of votes = 11 x = 11* 751.33 = 8264.63
rounding it to next integral no. as no. of votes cannot be fraction or decimal
the total number of votes was 8265.
Find the area of the surface generated by revolving x=t + sqrt 2, y= (t^2)/2 + sqrt 2t+1, -sqrt 2 <= t <= sqrt about the y axis
The area is given by the integral
[tex]\displaystyle A=2\pi\int_Cx(t)\,\mathrm ds[/tex]
where C is the curve and [tex]dS[/tex] is the line element,
[tex]\mathrm ds=\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}\right)^2}\,\mathrm dt[/tex]
We have
[tex]x(t)=t+\sqrt 2\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}=1[/tex]
[tex]y(t)=\dfrac{t^2}2+\sqrt 2\,t+1\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}=t+\sqrt 2[/tex]
[tex]\implies\mathrm ds=\sqrt{1^2+(t+\sqrt2)^2}\,\mathrm dt=\sqrt{t^2+2\sqrt2\,t+3}\,\mathrm dt[/tex]
So the area is
[tex]\displaystyle A=2\pi\int_{-\sqrt2}^{\sqrt2}(t+\sqrt 2)\sqrt{t^2+2\sqrt 2\,t+3}\,\mathrm dt[/tex]
Substitute [tex]u=t^2+2\sqrt2\,t+3[/tex] and [tex]\mathrm du=(2t+2\sqrt 2)\,\mathrm dt[/tex]:
[tex]\displaystyle A=\pi\int_1^9\sqrt u\,\mathrm du=\frac{2\pi}3u^{3/2}\bigg|_1^9=\frac{52\pi}3[/tex]

Raul and his friends each way 1/20 of a ton are standing on a truck scale . The total weight shown by the scale is 3/4 of a ton . How can I find the total number of people on the scale when Raul and his friends are weighed?
Answer: There are 15 friends.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that there is N friends (N is the number that we are looking for)
Each friend weights 1/20 ton.
Now, the weight of the N friends together is N times 1/20 ton.
Then we have:
N*(1/20) ton = 3/4 ton
We solve this for N.
First multiply both sides by 20.
20*N*(1/20) = N = 20*(3/4) = 60/4 = 15
Answer:
I can find the total number of people by dividing the total weight by the weight of one person.

A ship leaves the port of Miami with a bearing of S80°E and a speed of 15 knots. After 1 hour, the ship turns 90° toward the south. After 2 hours, maintain the same speed. What is the bearing to the ship from port?
Answer:
The bearing is N 55.62° W
Step-by-step explanation:
ship leaves the port of Miami with a bearing of S80°E and a speed of 15 knots.
It then turns 90° towards the south after one hour.
Still maintain the same speed and direction for two hours.
The bearing is just the angle difference from the ship current location to where it started.
Let the speed be km/h
Distance covered in the first round
= 15*1
= 15km
Distance covered in the second round
=15*2
= 30 km
Angle at C = (90-80)+90
Angle at C = 10+90= 100
Let the distance between the port and the ship be c
C²= a² + b² -2abcos
C²= 15²+30²-2(15)(30)cos 100
C²= 225+900+156.28
C²= 1281.28
C= 35.8 km
Using sine formula
30/sin x= 35.8/sin 100
30/35.8 * sin 100 = sinx
0.838*0.9848= sin x
0.8253= sin x
Sin ^-1 0.8253 = x
55.62° = x
The bearing is N 55.62° W
Suppose a 99% confidence interval for the mean salary of college graduates in a town in Mississippi is given by [$34,393, $47,207]. The population standard deviation used for the analysis is known to be $14,900.
Required:
a. What is the point estimate of the mean salary for all college graduates in this town?
b. Determine the sample size used for the analysis.
Answer: a. $40,800 b. 36
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : a 99% confidence interval for the mean salary of college graduates in a town in Mississippi is given by [$34,393, $47,207].
[tex]\sigma= \$14,900[/tex]
a. Since Point estimate of of the mean = Average of upper limit and lower limit of the interval.
Therefore , the point estimate of the mean salary for all college graduates in this town = [tex]\dfrac{34393+47207}{2}=\dfrac{81600}{2}[/tex]
= 40,800
hence, the point estimate of the mean salary for all college graduates in this town = $40,800
b. Since lower limit = Point estimate - margin of error, where Margin of error is the half of the difference between upper limit and lower limit.
Margin of error[tex]=\dfrac{47207-34393}{2}=6407[/tex]
Also, margin of error = [tex]z\times\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex], where z= critical z-value for confidence level and n is the sample size.
z-value for 99% confidence level = 2.576
So,
[tex]6407=2.576\times\dfrac{14900}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \sqrt{n}=2.576\times\dfrac{14900}{6407}=5.99\\\\\Rightarrow\ n=(5.99)^2=35.8801\approx 36[/tex]
The sample size used for the analysis =36

A normal distribution has a mean of 30 and a variance of 5.Find N such that the probability that the mean of N observations exceeds 30.5 is 1%.
Answer:
109
Step-by-step explanation:
Use a chart or calculator to find the z-score corresponding to a probability of 1%.
P(Z > z) = 0.01
P(Z < z) = 0.99
z = 2.33
Now find the sample standard deviation.
z = (x − μ) / s
2.33 = (30.5 − 30) / s
s = 0.215
Now find the sample size.
s = σ / √n
s² = σ² / n
0.215² = 5 / n
n = 109
Two charged particles, Q1, and Q2, are a distance r apart with Q2 = 5Q1 Compare the forces they exert on one another when F1 is the force Q2 exerts on Q1and F2 is the force Q1 exerts on Q2.
a) F2 = 5F1.
b) F2 =-5F1.
c) F2 = F1.
d) F2 = -F1.
e) 5F2 = F1.
Answer:
d) F2 = -F1.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to Coulomb's law of forces on electrostatic charges, the force of attraction is proportional to the product of their charges, and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart.
What this law means is that both particles will experience an equal amount of force on them, due to the presence of the other particle. This force is not just as a result of their individual charges, but as a result of the product of their charges. Also, the force is a vector quantity that must have a direction alongside its magnitude, and the force on the two particles will always act in opposite direction, be it repulsive or attractive.
A cube has an edge of 2 feet. The edge is increasing at the rate of 5 feet per minute. Express the volume of the cube as a function of m, the number of minutes elapsed.
Answer:
[tex]V(m) = (2 + 5m)^3[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Solid Shape = Cube
Edge = 2 feet
Increment = 5 feet per minute
Required
Determine volume as a function of minute
From the question, we have that the edge of the cube increases in a minute by 5 feet
This implies that,the edge will increase by 5m feet in m minutes;
Hence,
[tex]New\ Edge = 2 + 5m[/tex]
Volume of a cube is calculated as thus;
[tex]Volume = Edge^3[/tex]
Substitute 2 + 5m for Edge
[tex]Volume = (2 + 5m)^3[/tex]
Represent Volume as a function of m
[tex]V(m) = (2 + 5m)^3[/tex]

Answer:
Points : ( 8, - 2π/3 ), ( - 8, π/3 ), ( - 8, - 5π/3 )
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first two cases, ( r, θ ) r would be > 0, where r is the directed distance from the pole, and theta is the directed angle from the positive x - axis.
So when r is positive, we can tell that this point is 8 units from the pole, so r is going to be 8 in either case,
( 8, 240° ) - because r is positive, theta would have to be an angle with which it's terminal side passes through this point. As you can see that would be 2 / 3rd of 90 degrees more than a 180 degree angle,or 60 + 180 = 240 degrees.
( 8, - 120° ) - now theta will be the negative side of 360 - 240, or in other words - 120
Now let's consider the second two cases, where r is < 0. Of course the point will still be 8 units from the pole. Again for r < 0 the point will lay on the ray pointing in the opposite direction of the terminal side of theta.
( - 8, 60° ) - theta will now be 2 / 3rd of 90 degrees, or 60 degrees, for - r. Respectively the remaining degrees will be negative, 360 - 60 = 300, - 300. Thus our second point for - r will be ( - 8, - 300° )
_________________________________
So we have the points ( 8, 240° ), ( 8, - 120° ), ( - 8, 60° ), and ( - 8, - 300° ). However we only want 3 cases, so we have points ( 8, - 120° ), ( - 8, 60° ), and ( - 8, - 300° ). Let's convert the degrees into radians,
Points : ( 8, - 2π/3 ), ( - 8, π/3 ), ( - 8, - 5π/3 )
A coin is flipped eight times where each flip comes up either heads or tails. How many possible outcomes a) are there in total
Answer:
256 outcomes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Each time you flip the coin you have two possible outcomes, it can either come up with heads or tails.
You're going to flip the coin eight times so the first time you can have 2 possible outcomes, the second time you have 2 possible outcomes, the third time you have 2 possible outcomes, etc.
Since you are going to do this eight times you are going to multiply each of the outcomes, so you will have:
Possible outcomes = 2×2×2×2×2×2×2×2= 256
Thus, there are 256 different outcomes in total.

Prove that for all integers m and n, m - n is even if, and only if, both m and n are even or both m and n are odd.
Answer:
Below
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that m and n are both even numbers.
So we can express them as the product of 2 and another number.
● n = 2×a
● m = 2×b
● m-n = 2b-2a
● m-n = 2(b-a)
m-n is an even number since it is divisible by 2.
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■
Suppose that both n and m are odd numbers.
● n = 2a+1
● m = 2b+1
● m-n = 2b+1-(2a+1)
● m-n = 2b+1-2a-1
● m-n = 2b-2a
● m-n = 2(b-a)
So m-n is even since it is divisible by 2.
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■
Suppose that m is odd and n is even ir vice versa
● n = 2a or n= 2a+1
● m = 2b+1 or m = 2b
● m-n = 2b+1-2a or m-n = 2b-2a-1
● m-n = 2(b-a) +1 or m-n = 2(b-a)-1
In both cases m-n isn't even.
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■
So m-n is even if and only if m and n are odd or m and are even
Answer:
Case 1
both m and n are even
Therefore m/2 and n/2 are integers
Then,
m-n
=2(m/2 - n/2)
Since m/2 and n/2 are integers
Then m/2 - n/2 will be an integer
Therefore,
m-n = 2(Z)
Where Z is an integer
Since 2 is a factor of m-n
Therefore m -n is even
Case 2
Both m and n are odd
m-n
= 2(½m - ½n)
When an odd number is divided by 2 it gives an integer and a remainder of 1
Therefore
½m = Y + ½
And
½n = Z + ½
Where Y and Z are integers
Then
m-n = 2(Y+½-Z-½)
= 2(Y-Z)
Y-Z will also be an integer
m-n= 2A
Therefore m-n is even
Case 3
One is odd and the other even
m-n = 2(m/2 - n/2)
Assume m is even and n is odd
From the discussions above
m-n = 2(Y - Z - ½)
m-n = 2(A - ½)
Hence m-n is not even because when is divided by two it doesn't give an integer.
Therefore for all integers m and n, m - n is even if, and only if, both m and n are even or both m and n are odd.
What is the value of x to the nearest tenth?
Answer:
x=9.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The dot in the middle represents the center of the circle, so therefore, the line that is represented by 16 is the radius. Since that is the radius, the side that is the hypotenuse of the small triangle is also 16, since they have the same distance.
The line represented by 25.6 with x as its bisector shows that when we divide it by 2, the other side of the triangle besides the hypotenuse is 12.8.
Now that we have the two sides of the triangle, we can find the last side (represented by x). Use pythagorean theorem:
[tex]a^2 +b^2=c^2\\x^2+(12.8)^2=16^2\\x^2+163.84=256\\x^2=92.16\\x=9.6[/tex]

Which property of equality was used to solve this equation? x − 5 = -14 x − 5 + 5 = -14 + 5 x = -9 A. addition property of equality B. subtraction property of equality C. multiplication property of equality D. division property of equality
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
In the second step, they added 5 to both sides to get rid of the -5 on the left side. Since the same thing was done to both sides (addition), the answer is the addition property of equality.
Answer:
Addition property of equality
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is like:
=> x - 5 = -14
=> x - 5 + 5 = -14 + 5
=> x = -9
Since, we add 5 to both sides to solve for "x", the answer is "Addition Property of Equality".

Money is invested into an account earning 4.25% interest compounded annually. If the accumulated value after 18 years
will be $25,000, approximately how much money is presently in the account?
a $5,875
b. $11,820
c. $19,125
d. $23,960
Answer:
b. $11,820
Step-by-step explanation:
The 'rule of 72' tells you the doubling time of this account is about ...
(72 years)/(4.25) = 16.9 years
So, in 18 years, the amount will be slightly more than double the present value. That is, the present value is slightly less than half the future amount.
$25,000/2 = $12,500
The closest answer choice is ...
$11,820
__
The present value of that future amount is ...
PV = FV×(1 +r)^-t = $25,000×1.0425^-18 ≈ $11,818.73
The present value is about $11,820.

The difference of means subtracting. the first number is 9 and the second is x^2, so you get 9-x^2
A manufacturer claims that the calling range (in feet) of its 900-MHz cordless telephone is greater than that of its leading competitor. A sample of 19 phones from the manufacturer had a mean range of 1160 feet with a standard deviation of 32 feet. A sample of 11 similar phones from its competitor had a mean range of 1130 feet with a standard deviation of 30 feet.

Do the results support the manufacturer's claim?
Complete question is;
A manufacturer claims that the calling range (in feet) of its 900-MHz cordless telephone is greater than that of its leading competitor. A sample of 19 phones from the manufacturer had a mean range of 1160 feet with a standard deviation of 32 feet. A sample of 11 similar phones from its competitor had a mean range of 1130 feet with a standard deviation of 30 feet. Required:
Do the results support the manufacturer's claim?
Let μ1 be the true mean range of the manufacturer's cordless telephone and μ2 be the true mean range of the competitor's cordless telephone. Use a significance level of α = 0.01 for the test. Assume that the population variances are equal and that the two populations are normally distributed
Answer:
We will fail to reject the null hypothesis as there is no sufficient evidence to support the manufacturers claim.
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first sample, we have;
Mean; x'1 = 1160 ft
standard deviation; σ1 = 32 feet
Sample size; n1 = 19
For the second sample, we have;
Mean; x'2 = 1130 ft
Standard deviation; σ2 = 30 ft
Sample size; n2 = 11
The hypotheses are;
Null Hypothesis; H0; μ1 = μ2
Alternative hypothesis; Ha; μ1 > μ2
The test statistic formula for this is;
z = (x'1 - x'2)/√[(σ1)²/n1) + (σ2)²/n2)]
Plugging in the relevant values, we have;
z = (1160 - 1130)/√[(32)²/19) + (30)²/11)]
z = 2.58
From the z-table attached, we have a p-value = 0.99506
This p-value is more than the significance value of 0.01,thus,we will fail to reject the null hypothesis as there is no sufficient evidence to support the manufacturers claim.
