Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

hope u will understand...if u like this answer plz mark as brainlist

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle p(x) + q(x) = \frac{2x}{(x+1)(x-1)}[/tex]

The result is indeed another rational expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the two functions:

[tex]\displaystyle p(x) = \frac{1}{x+1}\text{ and } q(x) = \frac{1}{x-1}[/tex]

And we want to perform the operation:

[tex]\displaystyle p(x) + q(x)[/tex]

And show that the result is another rational expression.

Add:

[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{1}{x+1} + \frac{1}{x-1}[/tex]

To combine the fractions, we will need a common denominator. So, we can multiply the first fraction by (x - 1) and the second by (x + 1):

[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{1}{x+1}\left(\frac{x-1}{x-1}\right) + \frac{1}{x-1}\left(\frac{x+1}{x+1}\right)[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]=\displaystyle \frac{x-1}{(x+1)(x-1)} + \frac{x+1}{(x+1)(x-1)}[/tex]

Add:

[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{(x-1)+(x+1)}{(x+1)(x-1)}[/tex]

Simplify. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle p(x) + q(x) = \frac{2x}{(x+1)(x-1)}[/tex]

The result is indeed another rational expression.

Your friend offers to place a bet with you. He will pay you $1 if your favorite sports team wins the game on Tuesday night. But you will pay him $3 if his team wins. Your team has an 80% chance of winning, whereas his only has a 20% chance. This bet is in your favor. True or False.

Answers

False because $1 =$1 not $3

True. The expected value of the bet is positive ($0.2),

What is probability?

Probability is defined as the possibility of an event being equal to the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes and the total number of outcomes.

Let's calculate the expected value of the bet for both outcomes:

If your team wins: You get paid $1, so the expected value is 0.8 × $1 = $0.8

If your friend's team wins: You pay $3, so the expected value is 0.2 × -$3 = -$0.6

The overall expected value of the bet is the sum of these two outcomes: $0.8 + (-$0.6) = $0.2

Since the expected value of the bet is positive ($0.2), this means that on average, you can expect to win money if you take this bet. Therefore, the bet is in your favor.

The length of the base of a triangle is twice it’s height. If the area of the triangle is 441 square kilometers, find the height

Answers

Answer:

21 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height be [tex]x[/tex]. Then, the length of the base is [tex]2x[/tex]. The formula for the area is of the triangle is given by base*height/2. Therefore, the area of the triangle is equal to [tex]\frac{x \cdot 2x}{2} = x^2[/tex], which is in turn equal to 441. Since [tex]x[/tex] must be positive, then [tex]21^2=441[/tex], meaning that the height is [tex]21[/tex] kilometers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Polynomial long division is virtually identical to numerical long division, except that the quotient term does not require any guessing. It is simply the ratio of the leading terms of the dividend and divisor. As with numerical long division, the product of the quotient term and the divisor is subtracted from the dividend to form the new dividend for the next step.

The process stops when the dividend is of lower degree than the divisor.

In part (a), you need to make sure the dividend expression has all of the powers of x present. This means terms 0x³ and 0x² must be added as placeholders in the given dividend. They will become important as the work progresses.

X^2 + bx + 49 is a perfect squad trinomial what is one possible value of b? & I need help with the others also due soon!

20. (2) 14

A perfect square trinomial will factor into two expressions that are the same, for example: x^2 + 6x + 9 = (x + 3)(x + 3). Since this problem has a C value of 49, it will factor into (x + 7)(x + 7). 7 doubled is 14, therefore one possible value of B is 7.

21. (4) 2, -12

x^2 + 10x + 25 = 24 + 25

x + 5 = +/- 7

x = 2, -12

22. (3) 3 + sqrt(17)

x^2 - 6x = 8

Complete the Square

x^2 - 6x + 9 = 8 + 9

(x - 3)^2 = 17

x - 3 = +/- sqrt(17)

x = 3 + sqrt(17), 3 - sqrt(17)

23. (1) 1, -5

x^2 + 4x - 5 = 0

x^2 + 4x = 5

x + 2 = +/- 3

x = 1, -5

An investor puts $800 into an account that pays 7.5% interest compounded annually. The total amount A in the account after t years is given by which function below?
A = 800(1.75) ^t
A = 800(1.075) t
A = 800(1.075)^ t
A = 800 + (1.075)^ t

Answers

Answer:

A = 800( 1.075)^(t)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for interest is

A = p (1+r/n) ^ nt   where p is the principle, r is the interest rate, n is the number of times per year  and t is the years

A = 800( 1+ .075/1)^(1*t)

A = 800( 1.075)^(t)

Let's see

[tex]\\ \tt\leadsto A=P(1+r/n)^{nt}[/tex]

n is 1

[tex]\\ \tt\leadsto A=P(1+r)^t[/tex]

[tex]\\ \tt\leadsto A=800(1+0.075)^t[/tex]

A baseball is projected upward at 64 feet per second. It can be approximated by the equation -16t^2+64t. The baseball reaches it maximum height at the vertex. That can be gotten from x= −/2a . How long until the baseball reaches its full height? Note a quadratic equation can be written as ax^2+bx+c

Answers

Answer:

f(t) = -16t²+64t

t = number of secondsf(t) = height (in feet)

The x-coordinate(t) of the vertex can be found using formula [tex]\frac{-b}{2a}[/tex], where:

a = -16b = 64

Therefore the t-value of the vertex is:

[tex]\frac{-64}{2(-16)} =\frac{-64}{-32} =2[/tex]

The baseball will reach its maximum height after two seconds.

So that's why the answer is choice C

The requirement that x is nonzero isn't technically necessary. The original expression simplifies to choice C even when x = 0 is the case. Also, we don't have issues such as division by zero errors that could arise. It's a bit curious why your teacher put in that condition.

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

7x²×sqrt(2x⁴)×6×sqrt(2x¹²)

we see right away that as constant multiplication factor we have 7×6 = 42.

and then we get from each sqrt expression a sqrt(2), which leads to sqrt²(2) = 2 and therefore 42×2=84.

the only answer option with 84 is C.

now, to be completely sure, and to get some practice, let's look at the other parts :

sqrt(2x⁴) = sqrt(2)×sqrt(x⁴) = sqrt(2)×x²

sqrt(2x¹²) = sqrt(2)×sqrt(x¹²) = sqrt(2)×x⁶

=>

7x²×sqrt(2)×x²×6×sqrt(2)×x⁶ =7×6×2×x²×x²×x⁶ = 84x¹⁰

perfect. C is confirmed.

The solution of the equation is only one solution.

What is Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides. LHS = RHS is a common mathematical formula.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

We have,

-41 - 2x + 6 = -24

Now, solving for x we get

-41 + 6 -2x = -24

-35 - 2x = -24

-2x = -24 + 35

-2x = 11

x = -11/2

x= -5.5

2. The middle 95% of newborn babies weigh between and pounds.
3. What percent of newborn babies weigh less than 6.2 pounds? %
4. Approximately 50% of newborn babies weigh more than pounds.
5. What percent of newborn babies weigh between 6.9 and 9.7 pounds? %

Answers

Answer:

1. 16%

2. The middle 95% of newborn babies weigh between 6.2 and 9 pounds.

3. 2.5%

4. Approximately 50% of newborn babies weigh more than 7.6 pounds.

5. 83.85%

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean of 7.6 pounds, standard deviation of 0.7 pounds

1. What percent of newborn babies weigh more than 8.3 pounds?

7.6 + 0.7 = 8.3.

So more than 1 standard deviation above the mean.

The normal distribution is symmetric, which means that 50% of the measures are below the mean and 50% are above.

Of those above the mean, 100 - 68 = 32% are more than one standard deviation above the mean. So

[tex]0.32*0.5 = 0.16[/tex]

16% of newborn babies weigh more than 8.3 pounds.

2. The middle 95% of newborn babies weigh between and pounds.

Within 2 standard deviations of the mean, so:

7.6 - 2*0.7 = 6.2 pounds

7.6 + 2*0.7 = 9 pounds.

The middle 95% of newborn babies weigh between 6.2 and 9 pounds.

3. What percent of newborn babies weigh less than 6.2 pounds?

More than 2 standard deviations below the mean, which is 5% of the 50% below the mean, so:

[tex]p = 0.05*0.5 = 0.025[/tex]

2.5% of newborn babies weigh less than 6.2 pounds.

4. Approximately 50% of newborn babies weigh more than pounds.

Due to the symmetry of the normal distribution, the mean, so 7.6 pounds.

Approximately 50% of newborn babies weigh more than 7.6 pounds.

5. What percent of newborn babies weigh between 6.9 and 9.7 pounds?

6.9 = 7.6 - 0.7

9.7 = 7.6 + 3*0.7

Within 1 standard deviation below the mean(68% of the 50% below) and 3 standard deviations above the mean(99.7% of the 50% above). So

[tex]p = 0.68*0.5 + 0.997*0.5 = 0.8385[/tex]

83.85% of newborn babies weigh between 6.9 and 9.7 pounds.
