(i) Explain Pythagorean theorem in detail.
(ii) What is "Hippacus of Croton"?
Answer:
● The pythagorian theorem
The pythagorian theorem is used to find a missing side of a right triangle.
It states that the square of the hypotenus of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the two other sides.
Let a be the hypotenus, b and c are the othet sides:
☆☆☆☆☆ a^2 = b^2 + c^2☆☆☆☆☆
There are more than 350 way to prove this theorem.

Answer:
[tex]2\sqrt{5v}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We can treat 20v as a regular number and not a term.
To simplify this square root, we need to break it down into parts which can be squared.
[tex]\sqrt{20v} = \sqrt{4\cdot5v}[/tex]

A farmer decides to try out a new fertilizer on a test plot containing 10 stalks of corn. Before applying the fertilizer, he measures the height of each stalk. Two weeks later, after applying the fertilizer, he measures the stalks again. He compares the heights of these stalks to 10 stalks that did not receive fertilizer. Did the fertilizer help? Use a significance level of 0.10 to test whether the height of the stalks increased.
The differences are calculated and the mean difference is found to be -3.36 inches with a standard deviation of 1.05 inches. Set up the appropriate hypothesis test and find the standardized test statistic.

A farmer has 6 buckets of blueberries and wants to sell them at a market stall. The farmer will charge $1.50 per pint. If each bucket can hold half a bushel of blueberries, how much will the farmer make in selling all of the blueberries?
Answer:
$96
Step-by-step explanation:
6(1/2) = 3 bushels of berries total
3(4) = 12 pecks of berries total
4(8) = 32 quarts of berries total
32(2) = 64 pints of berries total
64 x $1.50 = $96
Answer:
The farmer will make a total of $96 from selling 6 buckets of blueberries.
Step-by-step explanation:
The total price is determined by multiplying the 12 pecks down into pints. Each pint sells for 1.50 and he has 64 pints of blueberries.
64 x $1.50 = $96
g The intersection of events A and B is the event that occurs when: a. either A or B occurs but not both b. neither A nor B occur c. both A and B occur d. All of these choices are true. a. b. c. d.
Answer:
c. both A and B
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that there are two events A and B.
To find:
Intersection of the two sets represents which of the following events:
a. either A or B occurs but not both
b. neither A nor B occur
c. both A and B occur
d. All of these choices are true. a. b. c. d
Solution:
First of all, let us learn about the concept of intersection.
Intersection of two events means the common part in the two events.
Explanation using set theory:
Let set P contains the outcomes of roll of a dice.
P = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
And set Q contains the set of even numbers less than 10.
Q = {2, 4, 6, 8}
Common elements are {2, 4, 6}
So, intersection of P and Q:
[tex]P \cap Q[/tex] = {2, 4, 6}
Explanation using Venn diagram:
Please refer to the image attached in the answer area.
The shaded region is the intersection of the two sets P and Q.
When we apply the above concept in events, we can clearly say from the above explanation that the intersection of two events A and B is the event that occurs when both A and B occur.
So, correct answer is:
c. both A and B
Answer:
C.

Use Lagrange multipliers to minimize the function subject to the following two constraints. Assume that x, y, and z are nonnegative. Question 18 options: a) 192 b) 384 c) 576 d) 128 e) 64
Complete Question
The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image
Answer:
Option C is the correct option
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The equation is [tex]f (x, y , z ) = x^2 +y^2 + z^2[/tex]
The constraint is [tex]P(x, y , z) = x + y + z - 24 = 0[/tex]
Now using Lagrange multipliers we have that
[tex]\lambda = \frac{ \delta f }{ \delta x } = 2 x[/tex]
[tex]\lambda = \frac{ \delta f }{ \delta y } = y[/tex]
[tex]\lambda = \frac{ \delta f }{ \delta z } = 2 z[/tex]
=> [tex]x = \frac{ \lambda }{2}[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{ \lambda }{2}[/tex]
[tex]z = \frac{ \lambda }{2}[/tex]
From the constraint we have
[tex]\frac{\lambda }{2} + \frac{\lambda }{2} + \frac{\lambda }{2} = 24[/tex]
=> [tex]\frac{3 \lambda }{2} = 24[/tex]
=> [tex]\lambda = 16[/tex]
substituting for x, y, z
=> x = 8
=> y = 8
=> z = 8
Hence
[tex]f (8, 8 , 8 ) = 8^2 +8^2 + 8^2[/tex]
[tex]f (8, 8 , 8 ) = 192[/tex]
A triangle has a base that is increasing at a rate of 18 mm per minute with the height being held constant. What is the rate of change of the area of the triangle if the height is 7 mm
Answer:
63mm/minStep-by-step explanation:
Area of a triangle = 1/2 * base * height
A = 1/2bh
Rate of change of area is expresssed as dA/dt = dA/db * db/bt
db/dt is the rate at which the base is increasing.
Given db/dt = 18mm/min
A = 1/2*7b
A = 7b/2
dA/db = 7/2
The rate at which the area is changing dA/dt = dA/db * db/bt
dA/dt = 7/2 * 18
dA/dt = 7*9
dA/dt = 63mm/min
Hence the rate at which the area of the triangle is changing is 63mm/min
Let f(x)=x+8 and g(x)= x2-6x-7 find f(g2)
Answer:
-7.
Step-by-step explanation:
g(x) = x^2 - 6x - 7
g(2) = 2^2 - 6(2) - 7
= 4 - 12 - 7
= -8 - 7
= -15
f(x) = x + 8
f(-15) = (-15) + 8
= 8 - 15
= -7

Which of the following is not a real number?
Answer:
im pretty sure its the -3 one
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The answer is A, Square root of -3 is not a real number.
Step-by-step explanation: You can take the square root of positive numbers, so we can eliminate choices C and D. We can take the square root of 0, which would equal 0, so B is incorrect. However, We cannot take the square root of negative numbers, so choice A is the answer for this question.
A table has five bowls. None of the quantities in the bowls are prime, though the last two bowls are empty. Two of the quantities are squares, and when added to the remaining number, the sum is 21. What are the amounts in the first three bowls?
Since two of the quantities are squares and the sum of all of three is equal 21, then the possible values of those two quantities are: 1,4,9,16
Let's consider each possibility
1 and 4
21-1-4=16, but 16 is also square and there can be only two square so NO
1 and 9
21-1-9=11, but 11 is prime, so NO
1 and 16
21-1-16=4... 4 is a square ,so NO
4 and 9
21-4-9=8 , 8 is not prime and not a square, so YES
4 and 16
21-4-16=1, but 1 is a square ,so NO
9 and 16
9+16=25>21 so.. NO
Therefore, the amounts in the first three bowls are 4,8,9.
Express the quotient of z1 and z2 in standard form given that [tex]z_{1} = 6[cos(\frac{2\pi }{5}) + isin(\frac{2\pi }{5})][/tex] and [tex]z_{2} = 2\sqrt{2} [cos(\frac{-\pi }{2}) + isin(\frac{-\pi }{2})][/tex]
Answer:
Solution : - 2.017 + 0.656i
Step-by-step explanation:
The quotient of the two expressions would be the following,
[tex]6\left[\cos \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{2\pi \:}{5}\right)\right][/tex] ÷ [tex]2\sqrt{2}\left[\cos \left(\frac{-\pi }{2}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{-\pi \:}{2}\right)\right][/tex]
So if we want to determine this expression in standard complex form, we can first convert it into trigonometric form, then apply trivial identities. Either that, or we can straight away apply the following identities and substitute,
( 1 ) cos(x) = sin(π / 2 - x)
( 2 ) sin(x) = cos(π / 2 - x)
If cos(x) = sin(π / 2 - x), then cos(2π / 5) = sin(π / 2 - 2π / 5) = sin(π / 10). Respectively sin(2π / 5) = cos(π / 2 - 2π / 5) = cos(π / 10). Let's simplify sin(π / 10) and cos(π / 10) with two more identities,
( 1 ) [tex]\cos \left(\frac{x}{2}\right)=\sqrt{\frac{1+\cos \left(x\right)}{2}}[/tex]
( 2 ) [tex]\sin \left(\frac{x}{2}\right)=\sqrt{\frac{1-\cos \left(x\right)}{2}}[/tex]
These two identities makes sin(π / 10) = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}[/tex], and cos(π / 10) = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}[/tex].
Therefore cos(2π / 5) = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}[/tex], and sin(2π / 5) = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}[/tex]. Substitute,
[tex]6\left[ \left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}+i\left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}\right][/tex] ÷ [tex]2\sqrt{2}\left[\cos \left(\frac{-\pi }{2}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{-\pi \:}{2}\right)\right][/tex]
Remember that cos(- π / 2) = 0, and sin(- π / 2) = - 1. Substituting those values,
[tex]6\left[ \left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}+i\left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}\right][/tex] ÷ [tex]2\sqrt{2}\left[0-i\right][/tex]
And now simplify this expression to receive our answer,
[tex]6\left[ \left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}+i\left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}\right][/tex] ÷ [tex]2\sqrt{2}\left[0-i\right][/tex] = [tex]-\frac{3\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}+\frac{3\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}i[/tex],
[tex]-\frac{3\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}[/tex] = [tex]-2.01749\dots[/tex] and [tex]\:\frac{3\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}[/tex] = [tex]0.65552\dots[/tex]
= [tex]-2.01749+0.65552i[/tex]
As you can see our solution is option c. - 2.01749 was rounded to - 2.017, and 0.65552 was rounded to 0.656.
Find the missing side or angle.
Round to the nearest tenth.
Answer:
b=2.7
Step-by-step explanation:
using sine rule,,,
Step-by-step explanation:
So for this problem, we need the missing angle A. From there, we can use the law of sines to compute length of b.
So the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180. With that in mind, we can make an equation to fine the measure of angle A.
53 + 80 + A = 180
133 + A = 180
A = 47
Now that we have the angle of A, we can use the law of sines to fine the length of b.
b / sin(B) = a / sin(A)
b = sin(B) * a / sin(A)
b = sin(80) * 2 / sin(47)
b = 2.693
Now round that to the nearest tenth to get
b = 2.7

5 hoursOne of two small restaurants is chosen at random with equally likely probability, and then an employee is chosen at random from the chosen restaurant. Restaurant #1 has 10 full-timers and 6 part-timers. Restaurant #2 has 7 full-timers and 9 part-timers. What is the probability that Restaurant #1 was chosen at random, given that a full-time employee was chosen? Your answers should be rounded to 4 digits after the decimal.
Answer:
P(1 |F) = 10/17
Step-by-step explanation:
Let events
1 = restaurant 1
2 = restaurant 2
F = full-time worker chosen
P = part-time worken chosen
P(1 and F) = 1/2 * 10/16 = 5/16
P(2 and F) = 1/2 * 7/16 = 7/32
P( (1 or 2) and F ) = P(F) = 5/16+7/32 = 17/32
P(1 | F) Probability of choosing restaurant 1 given a full-time was chosen
= P(1 and F) / P(F)
= 5/16 / (17/32)
= 5/16 * 32/17
= 10 / 17
Given a dataset with the following properties:
mean = 50
median = 40
standard deviation = 5
What is the shape of the distribution?
Answer:
The distribution is positively skewed.
Step-by-step explanation:
A measure of skewness is defined in such a way that the measure should always be zero when the distribution is symmetric and measure should be a pure number i.e independent of origin and units of measurement.
The shape of the distribution can be found by finding the coefficient of skewness.
The coefficient of skewness can be found by
Sk= 3(Mean-Median)/ Standard Deviation
Sk= 3( 50-40)5= 30/5=6
The shape will be positively skewed.
In a positively skewed distribution the mean > median > mode. It has a long right tail.
Using the skewness formula, it is found that the distribution is right-skewed.
------------------
The skewness of a data-set with mean M, median [tex]M_e[/tex] and standard deviation s is given by:[tex]S = \frac{3(M - M_e)}{s}[/tex]
If |S| < 0.5, the distribution is said to be symmetric.If S <-0.5, the distribution is left-skewed.If S > 0.5, the distribution is right-skewed.------------------
Mean of 50, thus, [tex]M = 50[/tex]Median of 40, thus [tex]M_e = 40[/tex]Standard deviation of 5, thus, [tex]s = 5[/tex]The coefficient is:
[tex]S = \frac{3(M - M_e)}{s} = \frac{3(50 - 40)}{5} = \frac{30}{5} = 6[/tex]
Thus, the distribution is right-skewed.

A cola-dispensing machine is set to dispense 11 ounces of cola per cup, with a standard deviation of 1.0 ounce. The manufacturer of the machine would like to set the control limit in such a way that, for samples of 35, 5% of the sample means will be greater than the upper control limit, and 5% of the sample means will be less than the lower control limit.Required:a. At what value should the control limit be set?b. If the population mean shifts to 10.7, what is the probability that the change will be detected?c. If the population mean shifts to 11.7, what is the probability that the change will be detected?
Answer:
a. the control limits should be set at (10.72, 11.28)
b. [tex]\mathbf{P(10.72<x<11.28) = 0.4526}[/tex]
c. [tex]\mathbf{P(10.72<x<11.28) = 0.0065}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
population mean μ = 11
standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] = 1.0
sample size n = 35
5% of the sample means will be greater than the upper control limit, and 5% of the sample means will be less than the lower control limit.
Therefore, level of significance ∝ = 0.05+0.05 = 0.10
Critical value for [tex]z_{1-\alpha/2} =z_{1-0.10 /2}[/tex]
[tex]\implies z_{1-0.05} = z_{0.95}[/tex]
Using the EXCEL FORMULA: = NORMSINV (0.95)
z = 1.64
The lower control limit and the upper control limit can be determined by using the respective formulas:
Lower control limit = [tex]\mathtt{\mu - z_{1-\alpha/2} \times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
Upper control limit = [tex]\mathtt{\mu + z_{1-\alpha/2} \times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
For the lower control limit = [tex]11-1.64 \times \dfrac{1.0}{\sqrt{35}}[/tex]
For the lower control limit = [tex]11-0.27721[/tex]
For the lower control limit = 10.72279
For the lower control limit [tex]\simeq[/tex] 10.72
For the upper control limit = [tex]11+1.64 \times \dfrac{1.0}{\sqrt{35}}[/tex]
For the upper control limit = 11 + 0.27721
For the upper control limit = 11.27721
For the upper control limit [tex]\simeq[/tex] 11.28
Therefore , the control limits should be set at (10.72, 11.28)
b. If the population mean shifts to 10.7, what is the probability that the change will be detected?
i.e
[tex]\mathtt{P(10.72<x<11.28) = P( \dfrac{X- \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}<z < \dfrac{X- \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}})[/tex]
[tex]\mathtt{P(10.72<x<11.28) = P( \dfrac{10.72- 10.7}{\dfrac{1.0}{\sqrt{35}}}<z < \dfrac{11.28- 10.7}{\dfrac{1.0}{\sqrt{35}}}})[/tex]
[tex]\mathtt{P(10.72<x<11.28) = P( \dfrac{0.02}{\dfrac{1.0}{5.916}}<z < \dfrac{0.58}{\dfrac{1.0}{5.916}}})[/tex]
[tex]\mathtt{P(10.72<x<11.28) = P(0.1183<z < 3.4313})[/tex]
[tex]\mathtt{P(10.72<x<11.28) = P(z< 3.4313) - P(z< 0.1183) }[/tex]
Using the EXCEL FORMULA: = NORMSDIST (3.4313) - NORMSDIST (0.118 ); we have:
[tex]\mathbf{P(10.72<x<11.28) = 0.4526}[/tex]
c If the population mean shifts to 11.7, what is the probability that the change will be detected?
i.e
[tex]\mathtt{P(10.72<x<11.28) = P( \dfrac{X- \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}<z < \dfrac{X- \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}})[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{P(10.72<x<11.28) = 0.0065}[/tex]
find the perimeter of a square of sides 10.5cm
Answer:
42 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
A square has 4 equal sides. To find the perimeter, add all side lengths together.
1. Set up the equation and solve
10.5 + 10.5 + 10.5 + 10.5 = 42
You are an assistant director of the alumni association at a local university. You attend a presentation given by the university’s research director and one of the topics discussed is what undergraduates do after they matriculate. More specifically, you learn that in the year 2018, a random sample of 216 undergraduates was surveyed and 54 of them (25%) decided to continue school to pursue another degree, and that was up two percentage points from the prior year. The Dean of the College of Business asks the research director if that is a statistically significant increase. The research director says she isn’t sure, but she will have her analyst follow up. You notice in the footnotes of the presentation the sample size in the year of 2017 was 200 undergraduates, and that 46 of them continued their education to pursue another degree.
There is a short break in the meeting. Take this opportunity to answer the dean’s question using a confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of students who continued their education in 2018 and 2017. (Use 95% confidence level and note that the university has about 10,000 undergraduate students).
Answer:
(0.102, -0.062)
Step-by-step explanation:
sample size in 2018 = n1 = 216
sample size in 2017 = n2 = 200
number of people who went for another degree in 2018 = x1 = 54
number of people who went for another degree in 2017 = x2 = 46
p1 = x1/n1 = 0.25
p2 = x2/n2 = 0.23
At 95% confidence level, z critical = 1.96
now we have to solve for the confidence interval =
[tex]p1 -p2 ± z*\sqrt{((1-p1)*p1)/n1 + ((1-p2)*p2/n2}[/tex][tex]0.25 -0.23 ± 1.96*\sqrt{((1 - 0.25) * 0.25)/216 + ((1 - 0.23) *0.23/200}[/tex]
= 0.02 ± 1.96 * 0.042
= 0.02 + 0.082 = 0.102
= 0.02 - 0.082 = -0.062
There is 95% confidence that there is a difference that lies between - 0.062 and 0.102 on the proportion of students who continued their education in the years, 2017 and 2018.
There is no significant difference between the two.
what number must be added to the sequence of 7,13 and 10 to get an average of 13
Answer:
22
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write an equation:
(7+13+10+x)/4=13
x represents the number that needs to be added to get an average of
(7+13+10+x)/4=13
(30+x)/4=13
30+x=52
x=22
The number is 22
Hope this helps! Have a wonderful day :)
