Answer:

3.564 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the original garden is

A = 5.4 * 1.5 = 8.1

The new garden is

5.4*1.2 = 6.48 by 1.5*1.2 =1.8

The area is

A = 6.48*1.8=11.664

The increase in area is

11.664-8.1=3.564

The given information is,

To find the increase in area of the garden.

Formula we use,

→ Area = Length × Width

Area of the real garden is,

→ 5.4 × 1.5

→ 8.1 m

The new garden will be,

→ 5.4 × 1.2 = 6.48 m

→ 1.5 × 1.2 = 1.8 m

The area of the new garden is,

→ 6.48 × 1.8

→ 11.664

Then the increase in area of the garden,

→ 11.664 - 8.1

→ 3.564 m²

Hence, 3.564 m² is the increase in area.

Answers

Answer:

A, B, and E apply

Step-by-step explanation:

One thing we can do is to make everything in the same format, under one square root, with no non-square roots.

First, we can say that 6 is equal to √36 as 6² =36, and 6 ≥ 0. Therefore, 6√3 = √36 * √3 = √108

For A, √3 * √36 = √108, so this applies

For B, √18 * √6 = √108, so this applies

For C, 108² = √something bigger than 108 = √11664, so this does not apply

For D, √54 ≠ √108, so this does not apply

For E, √108 = √108, so this applies

For F, √3 * √6 = √18, so this does not apply


What are the zeros of f(x) = (x - 2)(x + 7)? Select all that apply.
A. X= -7
B. X = -2
C. X = 2
D. X = 7

Answers

Answer:

2 = x          -7 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x - 2)(x + 7)

y  = (x - 2)(x + 7)

Set y = 0

0 = (x - 2)(x + 7)

Using the zero product property

0 = x-2    0 = x+7

2 = x          -7 = x

Answer:

Zeros happen when f(x) = 0. There are two zeros in the given function:

when (x - 2) = 0when (x + 7) = 0

Therefore solve both equations above and you'll get:

Zero #1 = 2Zero #2 = -7

4. The equation of a curve is y = (3 - 2x)^3 + 24x.
(a) Find an expression for dy/dx

5. The equation of a curve is y = 54x - (2x - 7)^3.
(a) Find dy/dx​

Answers

(4) y = (3 - 2x)³ + 24x

Use the power and chain rules:

dy/dx = 3 (3 - 2x)² d/dx [3 - 2x] + 24

dy/dx = 3 (3 - 2x)² (-2) + 24

dy/dx = -24x ² + 72x - 30

(5) y = 54x - (2x - 7)³

Same basic procedure:

dy/dx = 54 - 3 (2x - 7)² d/dx [2x - 7]

dy/dx = 54 - 3 (2x - 7)² (2)

dy/dx = -24x ² + 168x - 240

A cylindrical piece of iron pipe is shown below. The wall of the pipe is 1.25 inches thick: The figure shows a cylinder of height 14 inches and diameter 8 inches What is the approximate inside volume of the pipe?
332 cubic inches
69 cubic inches
703 cubic inches
99 cubic inches

Answers

Answer: 332 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

You can eliminate 69 and 99 as those answers don't make any sense. This leaves you with 703 and 332.

It says the wall of the pipe is 1.25 inches thick so you multiply that by 2 and subtract it by the diameter to get the insider diameter of 5.5

Now you just use the equation V = (3.14)(r^2)(14) where the radius is half of 5.5.

So to finalize the equation you get V = (3.14)(5.5)^2(14) which comes out to 332 cubic inches

The best choice is 332 cubic inches.

69 cubic inches and 99 cubic inches are less and 703 cubic inches is a large approximation.

Diameter = d= 8 inches

Height= Length = l= 14 inches

Thickness= 1.25 inches

Outer Radius= R= diameter/2= 8/2=4 inches

Inner radius = r= Radius - thickness

                            = 4- 1.25= 2.75 inches

Volume of the cylinder = Area × length

                                      = π r²× l

                                       = 22/7 × (2.75)² × 14

                                          = 332. 616 inches cube

So the best answer is 332 cubic inches

Bob's truck averages 23 miles per gallon. If Bob is driving to his mother's house, 72 miles away, how many gallons of gas are needed? Round to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

3.1 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we need to figure out how many gallons of gas go into 72 miles. We know 23 miles is equal to one gallon of gas, and given that the ratio of miles to gas stays the same, we can say that

miles of gas / gallons = miles of gas / gallons

23 miles / 1 gallon = 72 miles / gallons needed to go to Bob's mother's house

If we write the gallons needed to go to Bob's mother's house as g, we can say

23 miles / 1 gallon = 72 miles/g

multiply both sides by 1 gallon to remove a denominator

23 miles = 72 miles * 1 gallon /g

multiply both sides by g to remove the other denominator

23 miles * g = 72 miles * 1 gallon

divide both sides by 23 miles to isolate the g

g = 72 miles * 1 gallon/23 miles

= 72 / 23 gallons

≈ 3.1 gallons

Consider the following results for two independent random samples taken from two populations.

σ1=2.2 σ2=3.0

Required:
a. What is the point estimate of the difference between the two population means?
b. Provide a 90% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means.
c. Provide a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means.

Answers

Answer:

a. 2

b. The 90% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (1.02, 2.98).

c. The 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (0.83, 3.17).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before solving this question, we need to understand the central limit theorem and the subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Sample 1:

[tex]\mu_1 = 13.6, s_1 = \frac{2.2}{\sqrt{50}} = 0.3111[/tex]

Sample 2:

[tex]\mu_2 = 11.6, s_2 = \frac{3}{\sqrt{35}} = 0.5071[/tex]

Distribution of the difference:

[tex]\mu = \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 13.6 - 11.6 = 2[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_1^2+s_2^2} = \sqrt{0.3111^2+0.5071^2} = 0.595[/tex]

a. What is the point estimate of the difference between the two population means?

Sample difference, so [tex]\mu = 2[/tex]

b. Provide a 90% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means.

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.05[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.05 = 0.95[/tex], so Z = 1.645.

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = zs = 1.645(0.595) = 0.98[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 2 - 0.98 = 1.02

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 2 + 0.98 = 2.98

The 90% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (1.02, 2.98).

c. Provide a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means.

Following the same logic as b., we have that [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex]. So

[tex]M = zs = 1.96(0.595) = 1.17[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 2 - 1.17 = 0.83

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 2 + 1.17 = 3.17

The 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (0.83, 3.17).

An inlet pipe can fill an empty swimming pool in 5hours, and another inlet pipe can fill the pool in 4hours. How long will it take both pipes to fill the pool?

Answers

Answer:

It will take 2 hours, 13 minutes and 20 seconds for both pipes to fill the pool.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that an inlet pipe can fill an empty swimming pool in 5hours, and another inlet pipe can fill the pool in 4hours, to determine how long it will take both pipes to fill the pool, the following calculation must be performed:

1/5 + 1/4 = X

0.20 + 0.25 = X

0.45 = X

9/20 = X

9 = 60

2 = X

120/9 = X

13,333 = X

Therefore, it will take 2 hours, 13 minutes and 20 seconds for both pipes to fill the pool.

Answers

Given:

To find:

The exponential equations that is equivalent to the given logarithmic equation.

Solution:

Property of logarithm:

If [tex]\log_b a=x[/tex], then [tex]a=b^x[/tex]

We know that the base log is always 10 if it is not mentioned.

If [tex]\log a=x[/tex], then [tex]a=10^x[/tex]

We have,

[tex]\log 970=x[/tex]

Here, base is 10 and the value of a is 970. By using the properties of exponents, we get

[tex]970=10^x[/tex]

Interchange the sides, we get

[tex]10^x=970[/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is B, i.e., [tex]10^x=970[/tex].

Note: It should be "=" instead of "-" in option B.
