Use the ^ symbol to indicate exponents. So for instance 4^2 = 4 squared.
A decrease of 19% means we have r = -0.19 and 1+r = 1+(-0.19) = 0.81 as the base of the exponent. A decrease of 19% means the population retains 81% each year.
In a class test containing 10 questions, 5 marks are awarded for every correct answer and (−2) marks are awarded for every incorrect answer and 0 for questions not attempted.
Heena gets two correct and five incorrect answers out of seven questions she attempts. What is her score?
Answer:
0 points
Step-by-step explanation:
So first we see that she gets 2 questions correct,
2 * 5 = 10
Then we see that she gets 5 questions wrong,
5 * -2 = -10
Then we see that she doesn't attempt three questions,
3 * 0 = 0;
Now we add up the points,
10 - 10 + 0 = 0 points
Answer:
Heena gets 2 correct and 5 incorrect. She attempts only 7 questions so for the remaining 3 questions she will score zero marks.
So total marks scored by Heena is 5×2−5×2+0 i.e 0marks

The sum of ages of Noi's and Noy's is 26 years. The different between four times Noi's age and two times Noy's age is 28 years. Find the age of Noi and Noy.
Write as an equation
Let the age will be x
4x+2x-28 years
6x-28
x-28 by 6 -4.66
SO THE ANSWER IS 4.66
Answer:
Noi = x
Noy = y
x+y = 26 ... (1)
4x-2y= 28 ... (2)
Solve:
x+y= 26
x= 26-y (keep it)
4x-2y= 28
4(26-y)-2y=28
104-4y-2y= 28

x+y= 26
x + 12.6 = 26
x= 26-12.6
x= 13, 4 ( 13 years 4 mouths)
Let P be a non zero polynomial such that P(1+x)=P(1−x) for all real x, and P(1)=0. Let m be the largest integer such that (x−1) m divides P(x) for all such P(x). Then m equals
Answer:
m = 0, P(3)/2, P(4)/6, P(5)/12 ..........
Step-by-step explanation:
For non zero polynomial, that is all real x as follows:
x = 1, 2, 3, 4 ............
Using, P(1 + x) = P(1 - x)
For x = 1: P(2) = P(0) = 1
For x = 2: P(3) = P(-1) = 2
Hence, P(x)/m(x - 1) can be solved as follows:
When = 1
P(2)/0 = 1
∴ m = 0
When x = 2
P(3)/m = 2
∴ m = P(3)/2
When x = 3
P(4)/2m = 3
∴ m = P(4)/6
When x = 4
P(5)/3m = 4
∴ m = P(5)/12
Hence, m = 0, P(3)/2, P(4)/6, P(5)/12......

If 3sinA+4cosA=5 then find the value of cosA
Answer:
cos(A) = 4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
3sinA+4cosA=5
Divide by 5 on both sides
(3/5)sinA+(4/5)cosA = 1 .................(1)
from which sin(A) = 3/5, cos(A) = 4/5 by inspection, since
(3/5)^2+(4/5)^2 = 1
For more details,
Let
cos(B) = (3/5), then
sin(B) = (4/5)
Substitute in (1)
cos(B)sin(A) + sin(B)cos(A) = 1 substitute trigonometric sum
sin(A+B) = 1 => A & B are complementary
cos(A) = sin(B) = 4/5
If AC = 40, find the length of JK.
Answer:
JK = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Δ BKJ and Δ BCA are similar triangles and ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
[tex]\frac{JK}{AC}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{BK}{BC}[/tex] , substitute values
[tex]\frac{JK}{40}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )
5JK = 120 ( divide both sides by 5 )
JK = 24
the triangles are all similar, because they have proportional sides and equal angles.
if you assume the smallest, equal part of side to be x
the biggest triangle has "5 parts" so BC=5x and BK has 3 parts so BK=3x .
since they're similar, ratio of their corresponding sides is constant or equal.
[tex] {BK\over BC}={JK \over AC}[/tex]
BK/BC=3/5
and AC=40
so JK = 40*3/5=24

C. There are 5 1/2 three and one-eights in 3/4
D. There are 5 1/2 three-fourths in 4 1/8
Answer:
(D) There are [tex]5 \frac{1}{2}[/tex] three-fourths in [tex]4 \frac{1}{8}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We can see that in this model, the student tried to put [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] into [tex]4 \frac{1}{8}[/tex]. We know this because the top of Step 2 is [tex]4 \frac{1}{8}[/tex] and he is counting how many fourths in the bottom.
So this becomes the division statement:
[tex]4 \frac{1}{8} \div \frac{3}{4}[/tex].
We can convert [tex]4 \frac{1}{8}[/tex] into a mixed number by multiplying 8 and 4, then adding 1.
[tex]\frac{33}{8} \div \frac{3}{4}[/tex].
Multiply by the reciprocal:
[tex]\frac{33}{8} \cdot \frac{4}{3} = \frac{132}{24}[/tex]
Which simplifies down to
[tex]\frac{11}{2}[/tex], which is just [tex]5 \frac{1}{2}[/tex] in improper form.

What is the y-intercept of the line passing through the point (9,-7) with a slope of -1/8 ?
Answer:
-47/8.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the line has a slope of -1/8, that means the equation y = mx + b will be y = -1/8x + b.
In this case, we are given a point: (9, -7). That means that x = 9 and y = -7.
-7 = (-1/8)(9) + b
b - 9/8 = -7
b = -56/8 + 9/8
b = -47/8 = -5.875 = -5 and 7/8, which is your y-intercept!

Answer:
A= 17 B= 19
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a) 17 cups water
b) 19 cups rice
Step-by-step explanation:
w = 1.5r + 0.5
For 11 cups of rice, r = 11.
w = 1.5(11) + 0.5
w = 16.5 + 0.5
w = 17
For 11 cups of rice, 17 cups of water are needed.
With 29 cups of water, w = 29.
29 = 1.5r + 0.5
28.5 = 1.5r
r = 19
With 29 cups of water, 19 cups of rice can be cooked.

Answer:
98.1km²
Step-by-step explanation:
The name of the Triangle in this question is: WXV
In the question, we have:
Angle W = ? Unknown
Angle X = 119°
Angle V = 34°
Side w =?
Side x = 26km
Side v = ?
Step 1
We have to find the missing third angle = Angle W
Sum of angles in a triangle = 180°
= Angle W = 180° - (119 + 34)°
= 180° - 153°
Angle W = 27°
Step 2
Find the sides w and v using the sine rule
Sine rule =
a/ sin A = b/ Sin B
Hence for triangle WXV
w/ sin W = x/ sin X = v/ sin V
We have the following values
Angle W = 27°
Angle X = 119°
Angle V = 34°
We are given side x = 26km
a) Finding side w
w/ sin W= x/ sin X
w/sin 27 = 26/sin 119
Cross Multiply
sin 27 × 26 = w × sin 119
w = sin 27 × 26/sin 119
w = 13.49587km
w = 13.5km
b) Finding side v
x / sin X= v/ sin V
26/ sin 119 = v/sin 34
Cross Multiply
sin 119 × v = 26 × sin 34
v = sin 34 × 26/sin 119
v = 16.62324km
v = 16.62km
Step 3
Detemine the area of triangle WXV
We make use heron formula
= √s(s - w) (s - x) (s - v)
Where s = w + x + v/ 2
s = (13.5 + 26 + 16.62)/2
s = 56.12/2
s = 28.06
Area of the triangle = √28.06× (28.06 - 13.5) × (28.06 - 26 ) × (28.06 - 16.62)
Area of the triangle = √9628.137559
Area of the triangle = 98.123073530337km²
Approximately to the nearest tenth =98.1km²

Therefore, the probability is:
₁₃C₃ ₃₉C₁ / ₅₂C₄
= 286 × 39 / 270,725
≈ 0.04
The approximate probability that exactly three of the cards are diamonds is 4%.
What is the probability?Probability refers to a possibility that deals with the occurrence of random events.
The probability of all the events occurring need to be 1.
We are given that standard deck of 52 playing cards contains 13 cards in each of four suits: hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades.
Since we can see that there are ₁₃C₃ ways to choose 3 diamonds from 13.
₃₉C₁ ways to choose 1 non-diamond from 39.
₅₂C₄ ways to choose 4 cards from 52.
Therefore, the probability is:
₁₃C₃ ₃₉C₁ / ₅₂C₄
= 286 × 39 / 270,725
≈ 0.04
Therefore, the answer could be 4 percent.

The height of the triangle by applying formulas for the area of a triangle and your knowledge about triangles is 12 cm.
What is Area of Triangle?The area of a triangle is defined as the total space occupied by the three sides of a triangle in a 2-dimensional plane. The basic formula for the area of a triangle is equal to half the product of its base and height, i.e., A = 1/2 × b × h.
What is Heron's formula?Heron's formula, formula credited to Heron of Alexandria (c. 62 ce) for finding the area of a triangle in terms of the lengths of its sides. In symbols, if a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides:
Area = √s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c) where s is half the perimeter, or (a + b + c)/2.
Given:
Three sides are: 15cm, 25 cm and 2 cm
Now, Using Heron's formula
semi-perimeter= (25+ 20 + 15)/2
s= 30 cm
Now,
Area of triangle
=√s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)
=√30* 5 * 10* 15
=√5*2*3*5*2*5*3*5
=5*5*2*3
=150 cm²
Again, area of triangle= 1/2* b* h

Jorge’s monthly bill from his Internet service provider was $25. The service provider charges a base rate of $15 per month plus $1 for each hour that the service is used. Find the number of hours that Jorge was charged for that month.
Answer:
10 hours for the month
Step-by-step explanation:
What you know: The total amount Jorge was charged for the month was $25
The base rate is $15
He gets charged $1 per each hour
Setting it up:
15+1h=25
(the 15 is the base rate, plus the 1 dollar per hour (h) which both add to the total of 25 dollars for the month)
Subtract 15 from both sides of the equation to get your variable by itself
1h=10
then divide the 1 on both sides to get h (hours) by itself
h=10
And there's your answer, 10 is the number of hours that Jorge was charged for the month
Hopefully this helped :))
Answer:
