“Type ‘equal, supplementary, complementary, or vertical in the space provided’”
Answer:
Supplementary
Step-by-step explanation:
When the sum of 2 angles equal 180°, they are called supplementary angles. And they also form a straight line together.
<AOB (40°) and <BOC (140°) are not equal angles.
<AOB (40°) and <BOC (140°) are not complementary angles. Complementary angles add up to equal 90°.
<AOB (40°) and <BOC (140°) are not vertical angles. Vertical angles are opposite angles formed when two lines intersect.
<AOB (40°) and <BOC (140°) are supplementary angles. They add up to equal 180°.

The following shows the monthly sales in units of six salespersons before and after a bonus plan was introduced. At 95% confidence, determine whether the bonus plan has increased sales significantly. (For the following matched samples, let the difference "d" be: d = after - before.)
Salesperson After Before
1 94 90
2 82 84
3 90 84
4 76 70
5 79 80
6 85 80
Answer:
Since the calculated value of t= 2.249 does not falls in the rejection region we therefore accept the null hypothesis at 5 % significance level . On the basis of this we conclude that the bonus plan has not increased sales significantly.
Step-by-step explanation:
The null and alternative hypotheses as
H0: μd=0 Ha: μd≠0
Significance level is set at ∝= 0.05
n= 6
degrees of freedom = df = 6-1 = 5
The critical region is t ( base alpha by 2 with df=5) ≥ ± 2.571
The test statistic under H0 is
t = d/ sd/ √n
Which has t distribution with n-1 degrees of freedom
Sales Difference
Person After Before d = after - before d²
1 94 90 4 16
2 82 84 -2 4
3 90 84 6 36
4 76 70 6 36
5 79 80 -1 1
6 85 80 5 25
∑ 18 118
d`= ∑d/n= 18/6= 3
sd²= 1/6( 118- 18²/6) = 1/6 ( 118 - 54) = 10.67
sd= 3.266
t= 3/ 3.266/ √6
t= 2.249
Since the calculated value of t= 2.249 does not falls in the rejection region we therefore accept the null hypothesis at 5 % significance level . On the basis of this we conclude that the bonus plan has not increased sales significantly.

Use De Moivre's theorem to find the indicated power of the complex number. Write the answer in rectangular form.[2(cos10∘ + i sin10∘)]^3.
Answer:
[tex]\bold{4\sqrt3 + i4}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given complex number is:
[tex][2(cos10^\circ + i sin10^\circ)]^3[/tex]
To find:
Answer in rectangular form after using De Moivre's theorem = ?
i.e. the form [tex]a+ib[/tex] (not in forms of angles)
Solution:
De Moivre's theorem provides us a way of solving the powers of complex numbers written in polar form.
As per De Moivre's theorem:
[tex](cos\theta+isin\theta)^n = cos(n\theta)+i(sin(n\theta))[/tex]
So, the given complex number can be written as:
[tex][2(cos10^\circ + i sin10^\circ)]^3\\\Rightarrow 2^3 \times (cos10^\circ + i sin10^\circ)^3[/tex]
Now, using De Moivre's theorem:
[tex]\Rightarrow 2^3 \times (cos10^\circ + i sin10^\circ)^3\\\Rightarrow 8 \times [cos(3 \times10)^\circ + i sin(3 \times10^\circ)]\\\Rightarrow 8 \times (cos30^\circ + i sin30^\circ)\\\Rightarrow 8 \times (\dfrac{\sqrt3}2 + i \dfrac{1}{2})\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{\sqrt3}2\times 8 + i \dfrac{1}{2}\times 8\\\Rightarrow \bold{4\sqrt3 + i4}[/tex]
So, the answer in rectangular form is:
[tex]\bold{4\sqrt3 + i4}[/tex]

Find the general solution of the following differential equation. Primes denote derivatives with respect to x.(x+2y)y'=2x-yleft parenthesis x plus 2 y right parenthesis y prime equals 2 x minus y
Answer:
[tex]-[ln(x^2-yx-y^2)] = K\\[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the differential equation [tex](x+2y)y'=2x-y[/tex], this can also be written as;
[tex](x+2y)\frac{dy}{dx} =2x-y[/tex]
On simplification
[tex](x+2y)\frac{dy}{dx} =2x-y\\\\\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2x-y}{x+2y} \\\\let \ y = vx\\\frac{dy}{dx} = v+x\frac{dv}{dx}[/tex]
The differential equation becomes;
[tex]v+x\frac{dv}{dx} =\frac{ 2x-vx}{x+2vx}\\\\v+x\frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{ x(2-v)}{x(1+2v)}\\\\v+x\frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{2-v}{1+2v}\\\\x\frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{2-v}{1+2v} - v\\\\x\frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{(2-v)-v(1+2v)}{1+2v}\\\\x\frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{2-v-v-2v^2}{1+2v}\\\\x\frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{2-2v-2v^2}{1+2v}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dx}{x} = \frac{1+2v}{2-2v-2v^2}dv\\\\integrating\ both \ sides\\\\[/tex]
[tex]\int\limits \frac{dx}{x} = \int\limits \frac{1+2v}{2-2v-2v^2}dv\\\\lnx = \frac{1}{2} \int\limits \frac{1+2v}{1-v-v^2}dv\\\\lnx + C = -\frac{1}{2}ln(1-v-v^2)[/tex]
[tex]C = -\frac{1}{2}ln(1-v-v^2) - lnx \\\\ -ln(1-v-v^2) - 2lnx = 2C\\\\-[ln(1-v-v^2) + lnx^2] = 2C\\\\-[ln(1-v-v^2)x^2] = 2C\\since\ v = y/x\\\\- [ln(1-y/x-y^2/x^2)x^2] = K\\\\-[ln(x^2-yx-y^2)] = K\\[/tex]
Hence the solution to the differential equation is [tex]-[ln(x^2-yx-y^2)] = K\\[/tex]

Can I have help with 43 and 44 I need to see how to do them thanks.
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
(43)
3[tex]x^{5}[/tex] - 75x³ ← factor out 3x³ from each term
= 3x³(x² - 25) ← this is a difference of squares and factors in general as
a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b) , thus
x² - 25 = x² - 5² = (x - 5)(x + 5)
Thus
3[tex]x^{5}[/tex] - 75x³ = 3x³(x - 5)(x + 5)
(44)
81c² + 72c + 16 ← is a perfect square of the form
(ac + b)² = a²c² + 2abc + b²
Compare coefficients of like terms
a² = 81 ⇒ a = [tex]\sqrt{81}[/tex] = 9
b² = 16 ⇒ b = [tex]\sqrt{16}[/tex] = 4
and 2ab = 2 × 9 × 4 = 72
Thus
81c² + 72c + 16 = (9c + 4)²
1. 3x^5 -75x³
=3x³(x²-25)
=3x³(x²-5²)
=3x³(x-5)(x+5)
2. 81c²+72c+16
=81c²+36c+36c+16
=9c(9c+4)+4(9c+4)
=(9c+4)(9c+4)
=(9c+4)²
Simplify the following expression. (4x − 8)(4x + 8)
Answer:
16x^2 - 64
Step-by-step explanation:
(4x − 8)(4x + 8)
We recognize that this is the difference of squares
(a-b) (a+b) = a^2 - b^2
=(4x)^2 - 8^2
=16x^2 - 64
How many solutions does the following equation have? -14(z-5)=-14x+70
Answer:
Infinite amount of solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have no solution
Same lines have infinite solutions
Intersecting lines have 1 solution
Step 1: Write out equation
-14(x - 5) = -14x + 70
Step 2: Distribute -14
-14x + 70 = -14x + 70
Here we see that we have 2 exact same lines. Therefore, we have infinite amount of solutions.
Alternatively, we can plug in any number x and it would work. So then we would have infinite amount of solutions as well.
The first common multiple of two number is 6. What is their fourth common multiple?
Answer:
4th multiple = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Let the two numbers be represented by m and n
Required
Find the 4th common multiple of the numbers.
From the question, we understand that the first common multiple of m and n is 6.
This can be represented as:
m * n * 1 = 6
mn = 6
Their fourth common multiple can be represented as: m * n * 4
4th multiple = m * n * 4
4th multiple = 4 * mn
Substitute 6 for mn
4th multiple = 4 * 6
4th multiple = 24
Hence, the 4th multiple of both numbers is 24.
what does the inverse of f(x)=2x-3 looks like on a graph
Step-by-step explanation:
To find this inverse of a graph you have to multiply the current equation by -1.
-1(2x-3)
f(x)=-2x+3.
This graph will start at the point (0,3). Then according to the slope the rest of the points will go down two than right one. So the next two point will be (1,1) and (2,-1).
Is 55/22 a rational
Answer:
The fraction [tex]\displaystyle \frac{55}{22}[/tex] is indeed a rational number.
Step-by-step explanation:
A number [tex]x[/tex] is rational if and only if there exist two integers [tex]p[/tex] and [tex]q[/tex] (where [tex]q \ne 0[/tex]) such that [tex]x = \displaystyle \frac{p}{q}[/tex].
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{55}{22}[/tex], the number in question here is already written in the form of a fraction. The two integers [tex]p = 55[/tex] and [tex]q = 22[/tex] ([tex]q \ne 0[/tex]) meet the requirement that [tex]\displaystyle \frac{55}{22} = \frac{p}{q}[/tex]. Therefore, [tex]\displaystyle \frac{55}{22}\![/tex] is indeed a rational number.
Side note: the [tex]p[/tex] and [tex]q[/tex] here ([tex]q \ne 0[/tex]) don't have to be unique. For example:
because [tex]\displaystyle \frac{55}{22} = \frac{5 \times 11 }{2 \times 11} = \fraac{5}{2}[/tex], both of the following pairs could satisfy [tex]\displaystyle \frac{55}{22} = \frac{p}{q}[/tex]:
[tex]p = 55[/tex] and [tex]q = 22[/tex];[tex]p = 5[/tex] and [tex]q = 2[/tex].Please answer this correctly without making mistakes

Answer:
The two missing sides are : 79.54m and 58.62m
Step-by-step explanation:
first we look for the missing angle in the triangle
sum of angle in a triangle = 180°let make the missing angle be A 180 = A + 25 + 35180 = A + 60A = 180 - 60A = 120°so now we use sine rules:
a/(sin A) = b/(sin B) = c/(sin C)Let us make:
The side facing 35° be called bThe side facing 25° be called cThe side facing 120° be called aso :
120/(sin 120°) = b/(sin 35°)120/(0.866) = b/0.574138.57 = b/0.574b = 138.57 x 0.57479.54mso the side facing 35° = 79.54m
b/(sin B) = c/(sin C)79.54/(sin 35) = c/(sin 25)79.54/ (0.574) = c/(0.423)138.57 = c/(0.423)c = 138.57 x 0.423c = 58.62mTo find the area of this triangle
Six people attend the theater together and sit in a row with exactly six seats.
a. How many ways can they be seated together in the row?
b. Suppose one of the six is a doctor who must sit on the aisle in case she is paged. How many ways can the people be seated together in the row with the doctor in an aisle seat?
c. Suppose the six people consist of three married couples and each couple wants to sit together with the husband on the left. How many ways can the six be seated together in the row?
Answer
A. 720 ways
B. 240 ways
C. 6 ways
There are 720 ways they can be seated in a row together, 120 ways can the people be seated together in a row with the doctor in an aisle seat, and 6 ways can the six be seated together in a row.
What is a permutation?A permutation is defined as a mathematical process that determines the number of different arrangements in a set of objects when the order of the sequential arrangements.
It is assumed that six people will attend the theater together and sit in a row of six.
The following are the various ways they can be seated in a row together:
⇒ 6!
⇒ 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1
⇒ 720
If the doctor sits in the aisle seat, the remaining 5 persons can sit in the remaining 5 seats 5! ways
The total possibilities are as follows:
⇒ 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1
= 120
Consider that the six persons are made up of three married couples.
In addition to the aforementioned, divide the six chairs into three groups of two seats each.
There is one choice in each block for the husband to be placed on the left and the wife to be positioned on the right and the 3 couples can be seated in the 3 blocks in 3! ways.
⇒ 3 × 2 × 1
The required answer is 6.
Thus, there are 720 ways they can be seated in a row together, 120 ways can the people be seated together in a row with the doctor in an aisle seat, and 6 ways can the six be seated together in a row.

a ball is dropped from a height of 512 inches onto a level floor. after the fourth bounce it is still 2 inches off the ground. presuming that the height the ball bounces is always the same fraction of the height reached on the previous bounce. what is that fraction? A) 1/4 B) 3/7 C) 5/9 D)4/7 E)3/5
Answer:
A. 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that before the 1st bounce, the height of the ball is 512 inches.
Say the fraction is x.
Then, after the first bounce, the height of the ball is 512 * x = 512x.
After the second bounce, the height is now x * 512x = 512x².
By similar reasoning, the height after the third bounce is 512x³ and after the fourth bounce, it is [tex]512x^4[/tex].
We also know that after the fourth bounce, the height is 2 inches. So, set 2 equal to [tex]512x^4[/tex]:
2 = [tex]512x^4[/tex]
Divide both sides by 512:
[tex]x^4=2/512[/tex][tex]x^4=2/512=1/256[/tex]
Take the fourth root of both sides:
[tex]x=\sqrt[4]{1/256} =1/4[/tex]
Hence, the answer is A.
~ an aesthetics lover
Answer:
A. 1/4.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is exponential decay so we have , where x = the fraction:
512(x)^4 = 2
x^4 = 1/256
x= 1 / (256)^0.25

A major traffic problem in the Greater Cincinnati area involves traffic attempting to cross the Ohio River from Cincinnati to Kentucky using Interstate 75. Let us assume that the probability of no traffic delay in one period, given no traffic delay in the preceding period, is 0.9 and that the probability of finding a traffic delay in one period, given a delay in the preceding period, is 0.6. Traffic is classified as having either a delay or a no-delay state, and the period considered is 30 minutes.Required:a. Assume that you are a motorist entering the traffic system and receive a radio report of a traffic delay. What is the probability that for the next 60 minutes (two time periods) the system will be in the delay state?b. What is the probability that in the long run the traffic will not be in the delay state?c. An important assumption of the Markov process model presented here has been the constant or stationary transition probabilities as the system operates in the future. Do you believe this assumption should be questioned for this traffic problem? Explain.
Answer:
a) 0.36
b) 0.3
c) Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Probability of no traffic delay in one period, given no traffic delay in the preceding period = P(No_Delay) = 0.9
Probability of finding a traffic delay in one period, given a delay in the preceding period = P(Delay) = 0.6
Period considered = 30 minutes
a)
Let A be the probability that for the next 60 minutes (two time periods) the system will be in the delay state:
As the Probability of finding a traffic delay in one period, given a delay in the preceding period is 0.6 and one period is considered as 30 minutes.
So probability that for the next two time periods i.e. 30*2 = 60 minutes, the system in Delay is
P(A) = P(Delay) * P(Delay) = 0.6 * 0.6 = 0.36
b)
Let B be the probability that in the long run the traffic will not be in the delay state.
This statement means that the traffic will not be in Delay state but be in No_Delay state in long run.
Let C be the probability of one period in Delay state given that preceding period in No-delay state :
P(C) = 1 - P(No_Delay)
= 1 - 0.9
P(C) = 0.1
Now using P(C) and P(Delay) we can compute P(B) as:
P(B) = 1 - (P(Delay) + P(C))
= 1 - ( 0.6 + 0.10 )
= 1 - 0.7
P(B) = 0.3
c)
Yes this assumption should be questioned for this traffic problem because it implies that traffic will be in Delay state for the 30 minutes and just after 30 minutes, it will be in No_Delay state. However, traffic does not work like this in general and it makes this scenario unrealistic. Markov process model can be improved if probabilities are modeled as a function of time instead of being presented as constant (for 30 mins).

= 7.2 melo(unit of measurement)
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between the robot and Jo is 5 melo( unit Of measurement)
Let the distance between the flying object and the ground= y
Let's the remaining length of the closest between robot and Jonny and the ground be x.
Y/(x+5)= tan 29.... equation 1
Y/x= tan 42.... equation 2
Equating the value of y
Tan 29(x+5) = tan42(x)
Tan29/tan 42 = x/(x+5)
0.61562(x+5)= x
3.0781= x- 0.61562x
3.0781= 0.38438x
3.0781/0.38438= x
8.008= x
8= x
Y/x= tan 42
Y/8= 0.9004
Y= 7.203
Y= 7.2 melo (unit of measurement )

Complete parts (a) through (d) below.
a. What is the exact value that is 53% of 1018?
The 53% of 1018 is :
=[tex]\dfrac{53}{100} \times 1018[/tex]
= 0.53 × 1018
= 539.54
