Sheldon lives 2 miles from the comic book store. Penny lives 2800 yards away. Who lives closer?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Penny is closer

Step-by-step explanation:

1 mile is 1760 yards- so 2 miles is 3520 yards, so Penny is closer... which makes no sense since they live in the same building, but there you have it

How do I evaluate:
(-1000)1/3

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  -10

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to write what you mean. We think you mean (-1000)^(1/3).

If you've been paying attention to place-value, and/or cubes of small integers, you already know that 10^3 = 1000. Since we're concerned with an odd power, we also know ...

  -1000 = (-10)^3

Then your expression is ...

  (-1000)^(1/3) = ((-10)^3)^(1/3) = (-10)^(3/3) = (-10)^1 = -10

__

Some calculators can evaluate this for you (see attached).

Some calculators and spreadsheets use logarithms to compute roots or fractional powers, so will give you an error when you try to compute this. You should know that an odd-index root of a negative number (here, 3rd root of -1000) has the same sign as the number: negative. Then you can use your calculator to compute the positive root and add the sign yourself:

  (-1000)^(1/3) = -(1000^(1/3)) = -(10) = -10

_____

Of course, a 1/3 power is the same as a cube root. Your calculator may have a cube root button that works just fine with negative numbers.

Find the 10th term of the arithmetic sequence -x + 9, 4x + 14, 9x + 19, ...

Answers

Answer:

44x + 54

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is given by :

Tn = a + (n - 1)d

d = common difference = T2 - T1

d = T2 - T1

a = first term = - x + 9

d = 4x + 14 - (-x + 9)

d = 4x + 14 + x - 9

d = 5x + 5

The 10th term:

T(10) = (-x + 9) + (10 - 1)*(5x + 5)

T(10) = - x + 9 + 9(5x + 5)

T(10) = - x + 9 + 45x + 45

T(10) = 44x + 54

Hence, the 10th term is 44x + 54

write an equation for the nth term of the arithmetic sequence. Then find a40.

1/4,1/2,3/4,1,...​

Answers

Answer:

The nth term is: [tex]a_n = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4}(n-1)[/tex]

a40 = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequence:

In an arithmetic sequence, the difference between consecutive terms is always the same, and this difference is called common difference.

The nth term of a sequence is given by:

[tex]a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d[/tex]

In which [tex]a_1[/tex] is the first term and d is the common difference.

1/4,1/2

This means that:

[tex]d = \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{4} = \frac{2}{4} - \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

1/4

This means that [tex]a_1 = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

The nth term is:

[tex]a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d[/tex]

[tex]a_n = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4}(n-1)[/tex]

Then find a40.

[tex]a_{40} = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4}(40-1) = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{39}{4} = \frac{40}{4} = 10[/tex]

So

a40 = 10

Answers

The answer is D to your question

the Equation A. r²+ y² = 5 degenerate the circle.

What are the properties of the circle?

The circumference, which is the distance around the object, the diameter, which is the length of a circle measured from one end to the other and passing through its center, and the radius, which is equal to half of the diameter, are the three key characteristics.

The general coordinate equation of a circle is:

(x-h)² + (y - k)² = r²

Where,

(h, k) is the center of a circle,

"r" is the radius of the circle.

Only option A, r²+ y² = 5

Satisfies the general equation of the line,

thus, From option A the coordinates of the circle on the plane r-y

is (0, 0) and the radius of the circle will be √5.

From option B,  x+y=7

It is the equation of the line.

From option C, x² + y² = -2

The sum of two squares can not be negative so it is not a real equation

From equation D, (x - 5)²+(y - 3)² = 0

The radius of a circle can not be zero otherwise it will become a point.

therefore, the Equation A. r²+ y² = 5 degenerate the circle.

A family spends 1/10 of it's annual income for housing 1/4 for food and clothing 1/5 for general expenses and 2/15 for entertainment what fractional part of their income is spent on these items altogether.

Answers

Answer:

The family spends 41/60 of its income on these items altogether.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a family spends 1/10 of it's annual income for housing, 1/4 for food and clothing, 1/5 for general expenses and 2/15 for entertainment, to determine what fractional part of their income is spent on these items altogether the following calculation must be performed:

10, 4, 5, and 15 have a common least multiple at 60.

1/10 = 6/60

1/4 = 15/60

1/5 = 12/60

2/15 = 8/60

6 + 15 + 12 + 8 = 41

Therefore, the family spends 41/60 of its income on these items altogether.

Consider a taxi station where taxis and customers arrive in accordance with Poisson processes with respective rates of one and three per minute. A taxi will wait no matter how many other taxis are present. However, an arriving customer that does not find a taxi waiting leaves. Find the proportion of arriving customers that get taxis.

Answers

Answer:

The proportion of arriving customers that get taxis is:

= 33%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of arrival of taxis = 1 per minute

In one hour, the number of taxis arriving = 60 (60/1)

Rate of arrival of customers = 3 per minute

In one hour, the number of customers arriving = 180 (60 * 3)

The proportion of arriving customers that get taxis = 60/180

= 0.333

= 33%

b) Since the taxis wait until they get a customer, it means that they will likely transport one out of 3 customers who arrive.  Therefore, the proportion of arriving customers that get taxis is equal to 1/3 or 60/180, which is equal to 33%.

The equation of a line in point-slope form passing through the points

[tex](x_1 , y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2 , y_2)[/tex] with slope m is defined as;

⇒ [tex]y - y_1 = m (x - x_1)[/tex]

Where, [tex]m = \frac{(y_2 - y_1)}{(x_2 - x_1)}[/tex]

Let us take two points on the graph, which are (4, 1) and (0, 2).

Here, [tex](x_1 , y_1) = (4, 1)[/tex]

And,  [tex](x_2 , y_2)= (0, 2)[/tex]

So, the slope of the line is,

[tex]m = \frac{(y_2 - y_1)}{(x_2 - x_1)}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{(2 - 1)}{(0-4)}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{1}{- 4}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{-1}{4}[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of the line with slope [tex]m = \frac{-1}{4}[/tex] is,

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Given data

Loss= $13.5

Percentage of the loss= 15%

Let the full loss be x

Hence we can find the value of x as

15/100*x= 13.5

0.15x= 13.5

divide both sides by x

x= 13.5/0.15

x= $90

Hence the loss in full is $90

The length of a rectangular swimming pool is exactly three times as long

Step-by-step explanation:

Length= 3 × ( width)

But perimeter= 2width + 2 Lenght= 472

Let length= X

Width= Y

X= 3Y.........eqn(1)

2X + 2Y= 472........eqn(2)

Substitute X= 3Y in eqn(2)

2(3Y) + 2Y = 472

6Y + 2Y= 472

8Y= 472

Y= 59 m

Hence, the width of the pool is 59 m

A polynomial expression is an algebraic expression with variables and coefficients. Unknown variables are what they're termed. We can use addition, subtraction, and other mathematical operations. However, a variable is not divisible.

The zeroes of the polynomial function are 2 and -3.

The number of zeroes is 2. Then the degree of the polynomial will be 2. So, the function is a quadratic function.

The zeroes of the function represent the x-intercepts. Then the curve is passing through (0, 2) and (0, -3).

Thus, the correct option is B.

Find the slope of a line that goes through the points (5,-2) and (1,0).
A. 1/2 B. - 1/2 C. 2 D. -2

Answers

Answer:

B(-1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

So remember, the slope is y2-y1/x2/x1. Note that y2 means the second y adn x2 means the second x.

So lets plug in our numbers for the top of our fraction, y2-y1. This is 0- - 2.

You should get postive 2, since -- equals a + so it would be 0+2 equaling 2.

This is your y value of your slope.

Next lets find the x value of the slope.

Lets plug in our numbers for the bottem raction this time, which is x2-x1. This is 1-5.

You should get negative 4, since 1-5 equals -4.

This is the x value of the slope.

Knowing your y and x value of the slope, we can tell that the slope will be:

2/-4

This can be simplyfied to -1/2. Since 2 goes into 2, 1 time(for y). Then 2 goes into -4, -2 times(for x). So now its 1/-2.

The negative sign can just be moved to the front since it is the only negative and does not change:
