Answer:
y=-1/7x + 12/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by finding the slope
m=(1-0)/(-5-2)
m=-1/7
next plug the slope and the point (-5,1) into point slope formula
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y1=1
x1= -5
m=-1/7
y- 1 = -1/7(x - -5)
y-1=-1/7(x+5)
Distribute -1/7 first
y- 1=-1/7x + 5/7
Add 1 on both sides, but since its a fraction add 7/7
y=-1/7x + (5/7+7/7)
y=-1/7x+12/7
In a random sample of 7 residents of the state of Montana, the mean waste recycled per person per day was 2.8 pounds with a standard deviation of 0.16 pounds. Determine the 90% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Montana. Assume the population is approximately normal.
Answer:
The 90% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Montana is between 2.68 and 2.92 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 7 - 1 = 6
90% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 6 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95[/tex]. So we have T = 1.9432.
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.9432\frac{0.16}{\sqrt{7}} = 0.12[/tex]
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 2.8 - 0.12 = 2.68 pounds.
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 2.8 + 0.12 = 2.92 pounds.
The 90% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Montana is between 2.68 and 2.92 pounds.
Meg is 6 years older than Victor. Meg's age is 2 years less than five times Victor's age. The equations below model the relationship between Meg's age (m) and Victor's age (v):
m = v + 6
m = 5v − 2
Which is a possible correct method to find Meg's and Victor's ages?
Solve m + 6 = 5m − 2 to find the value of m.
Write the points where the graphs of the equations intersect the x axis.
Solve v + 6 = 5v − 2 to find the value of v.
Write the points where the graphs of the equations intersect the y axis.
Answer:
Option C
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Find the correct method
Option A is incorrect because we don't have m + 6 and 5m - 2
Option B is incorrect because that wouldn't show us the correct value
Option C is correct, once we solve for v, we can plug in v and get the value of m. For example: v + 6 = 5v - 2 → v + 8 = 5v → 8 = 4v → 2 = v. Then we plug it into the other equation m = 2 + 6 → m = 8
Option D is incorrect because that wouldn't show us the correct value.
Answer: Option C
find all complex numbers z such that z^2=2i
please answer in a+bi
thank you
2 Answers:
z = 1 + i and z = -1 - i
========================================================
Explanation:
We want z to be a complex number in the form z = a+bi, where a,b are real numbers and [tex]i = \sqrt{-1}[/tex] is imaginary.
Let's plug that into the equation your teacher gave you
[tex]z^2 = 2i\\\\(a+bi)^2 = 2i\\\\(a+bi)(a+bi) = 2i\\\\a(a+bi)+bi(a+bi) = 2i\\\\a^2+abi+abi+b^2*i^2 = 2i\\\\a^2+2abi+b^2*(-1) = 2i\\\\a^2+2abi-b^2 = 2i\\\\(a^2-b^2)+2abi = 0+2i\\\\[/tex]
You could use the FOIL rule to take a shortcut. I'm deciding to be a bit more wordy to show a further breakdown how everything is multiplying out.
Notice that the real part a^2-b^2 must be 0 so that it matches the real part on the right hand side.
a^2-b^2 = 0
(a-b)(a+b) = 0 .... difference of squares rule
a-b = 0 or a+b = 0
a = b or a = -b
So whatever solution z = a+bi is, it must have either a = b or a = -b.
--------------------------------
If a = b, then the 2abi portion on the left side turns into 2a^2*i
Set this equal to 2i on the right hand side and isolate 'a'
[tex]2a^2*i = 2i\\\\2a^2 = 2\\\\a^2 = 1\\\\a = 1 \text{ or } a = -1\\\\[/tex]
So a = 1 leads to b = 1
Or a = -1 leads to b = -1
Two complex solutions so far are: z = 1 + i and z = -1 - i based on those two cases above.
--------------------------------
Now consider the case that a = -b
We'll effectively have the same steps as the previous section, but the equation to solve now is [tex]-2a^2*i = 2i\\\\[/tex]
The only difference is that negative is out front. You should find that it leads to a^2 = -1, but this has no solutions because we stated earlier that a,b were real numbers.
So if a = -b, then it concludes with a,b being nonreal numbers. Ultimately we rule out the case that a = -b is possible.
Put another way, note how -2a^2 is always negative which clashes with the idea that the right hand side is positive (ignore the 'i' portions). This contradiction means that no real values of 'a' will make the equation [tex]-2a^2*i = 2i\\\\[/tex] to be true.
--------------------------------
To wrap things up, we only have two solutions and they are
z = 1 + i and z = -1 - i
You can use a tool like WolframAlpha to confirm this.
The probability that Barry Bonds hits a home run on any given at-bat is 0.16, and each at-bat is independent.
Part A: What is the probability that the next home run will be on his fifth at-bat? (5 points)
Part B: What is the expected number of at-bats until the next home run? (5 points)
Answer:
a) 0.0797 = 7.97% probability that the next home run will be on his fifth at-bat.
b) The expected number of at-bats until the next home run is 6.25.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each at bat, there are two possible outcomes. Either it is a home run, or it is not. The probability of an at bat resulting in a home run is independent of any other at-bat, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
The probability that Barry Bonds hits a home run on any given at-bat is 0.16
This means that [tex]p = 0.16[/tex]
Part A: What is the probability that the next home run will be on his fifth at-bat?
0 on his next 4(P(X = 0) when n = 4)
Home run on his 5th at-bat, with 0.16 probability. So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{4,0}.(0.16)^{0}.(0.84)^{4} = 0.49787136 [/tex]
0.49787136 *0.16 = 0.0797.
0.0797 = 7.97% probability that the next home run will be on his fifth at-bat.
Part B: What is the expected number of at-bats until the next home run?
The expected number of trials for n successes is given by:
[tex]E = \frac{n}{p}[/tex]
In this question, [tex]n = 1, p = 0.16[/tex]. So
[tex]E = \frac{1}{0.16} = 6.25[/tex]
The expected number of at-bats until the next home run is 6.25.

Kenji simplifies 3^5 x 4^ 5and gets the result 12^10, but Darlene is not sure. Is Kenji correct? Justify your answer.
That's a question about exponentiation.
Answer:
Kenji is wrong because he does not aply the porperty correctly.
Step-by-step explanation:
A exponetiation has this form:
[tex]\boxed{a^b}[/tex]
a is the base
b is the power or exponent
To understand that situation it's important to know a property about exponentiation. When we have a multiplication with the same exponent and diferent bases, the result is the multiplication of the bases with the same exponent. Let's see this above, in mathematical language:
[tex]\boxed{a^b \cdot c^b = (a\cdot c) ^b}[/tex]
Examples:
[tex]2^3 \cdot 8^3 = (2 \cdot 8) ^3 = 16^3[/tex][tex]10^9 \cdot 23^9 = (10 \cdot 23) ^9 = 230^9[/tex]Now, we can say why Kenji is wrong. It's easy simplify [tex]3^5 \cdot 4^5[/tex]! We know that the result is [tex](3 \cdot 4) ^5 = 12^5[/tex], but Kenji multiplied the bases and added the exponents, that's why he is wrong.
I hope I've helped. ^^

T is the midpoint of pq where pt=3x-3 and tq=5x-7 find x
Answer: x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
P-----------------------T----------------------Q
(3x-3) (5x-7)
Since T is the midpoint we know that PT and TQ are equal
Just solve the equation: 3x-3 = 5x-7
[tex]3x-3 = 5x-7[/tex]
now move the x to one side
[tex]-3 = 2x-7[/tex] (I subtracted the 3x)
then get the 2x by itself
[tex]4=2x[/tex]
lastly, divide by 2 to get x by itself

Given the parabola below, find the endpoints of the latus rectum. (x-2)^2=-20(y+2)
Answer:
The endpoints of the latus rectum are [tex](12, -7)[/tex] and [tex](-8, -7)[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
A parabola with vertex at point [tex]C(x, y) = (h,k)[/tex] and whose axis of symmetry is parallel to the y-axis is defined by the following formula:
[tex](x-h)^{2} = 4\cdot p \cdot (y-k)[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]y[/tex] - Independent variable.
[tex]x[/tex] - Dependent variable.
[tex]p[/tex] - Distance from vertex to the focus.
[tex]h[/tex], [tex]k[/tex] - Coordinates of the vertex.
The coordinates of the focus are represented by:
[tex]F(x,y) = (h, k+p)[/tex] (2)
The latus rectum is a line segment parallel to the x-axis which contains the focus. If we know that [tex]h = 2[/tex], [tex]k = -2[/tex] and [tex]p = -5[/tex], then the latus rectum is between the following endpoints:
By (2):
[tex]F(x,y) = (2, -2-5)[/tex]
[tex]F(x,y) = (2,-7)[/tex]
By (1):
[tex](x-2)^{2} = -20\cdot (-7+2)[/tex]
[tex](x-2)^{2} = 100[/tex]
[tex]x - 2 = \pm 10[/tex]
There are two solutions:
[tex]x_{1} = 2 + 10[/tex]
[tex]x_{1} = 12[/tex]
[tex]x_{2} = 2-10[/tex]
[tex]x_{2} = -8[/tex]
Hence, the endpoints of the latus rectum are [tex](12, -7)[/tex] and [tex](-8, -7)[/tex].
Linda leaves the school to go home. She walks 7 blocks south and then 9 blocks east. how far is Linda from her office?
A.8 blocks
B.11.5 blocks
C.20 blocks
D.14 blocks
Answer:
B. 11.5
Step-by-step explanation:
That missing length can be solved via the equation a^2+b^2=c^2, where the hypotenuse is c. We know A and B, which is 7 and 9.
7^2+9^2=130
sqrt 130 is 11.4017543
Here, you kinda have to break the rules of rounding to say that it is B.
There could be a more efficient route for resolving this answer, but this is the method that I was taught.
what is the length of a rectangular solid with a volume of 180 cu ft, if it is 9 ft high and 4ft wide?
Answer:
5 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for Volume is V=lwh, or Volume = length x width x height.
The equation would be:
[tex]180=l(4)(9)[/tex]
or
[tex]180=36l[/tex]
To find the answer, divide by 36.
[tex]\frac{180}{36} =\frac{36l}{36}[/tex]
[tex]5=l[/tex]

A department store mails a customer satisfaction survey to people who make credit card purchases at the store. This month, 3521 people made credit card purchases. Surveys are mailed to 278 of these people, chosen at random, and 172 people return the survey form. Identify the population and the sample.
Answer:
The population is the population of 3521 people who made credit card purchases.
The sample is the 172 people who returned the survey form.
Step-by-step explanation:
Department mails customers satisfactions forms to those who make credit cards purchase at the store, totaling 3521 people. Thus, the population is the population of 3521 people who made credit card purchases.
Surveys are mailed to 278 of these people, chosen at random, and 172 people return the survey form.
Thus the sample, that is, those from whom the data will be taken and expanded to the rest of the population, is the 172 people who returned the survey form.
The population is all 3521 people who made credit card purchases.
The sample is the 172 people who returned the survey form.
What are the zeroes of f(x) = x2 - X - 2?
x= -2,1
x = 2, -1
x= -2, -1
x = 2,1
Answer:
x=2 x=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x^2 - X - 2
0= x^2 -x-2
Factor
0 =(x-2)(x+1)
Using the zero product property
x-2 =0 x+1 =0
x=2 x=-1
Answer:
x=2, -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We want to find the zeros of this function: f(x)=x²-x-2
The zeros are the values of x that will make f(x)=0
So that means in order to find the zeros, set f(x) as 0
In that case,
x²-x-2=0
Now let's solve the quadratic equation
We can do it by factoring
-x is the sum of two numbers, while -2 is the product of those two same numbers
Now think: which two numbers add up to -1, but multiply to get -2?
Those numbers are -2 and 1
Now factor the polynomial by FOIL:
(x-2)(x+1)=0
Split and solve
x-2=0
x=2
x+1=0
x=-1
The zeros are x=2, -1
Hope this helps!

rightacuteobtuserightobtuseStep-by-step explanation:
When the same problem is repeated, I like to solve it using a spreadsheet. That way, the formulas only need to be entered once, and the arithmetic is (almost) guaranteed to be done correctly.
A "form factor" computed from side lengths can be used to determine the type of triangle. Where 'c' is the long side, that factor can be computed as ...
f = a² +b² -c²
and interpreted as follows:
f = 0, right trianglef > 0, acute trianglef < 0, obtuse triangle(The sign of f matches the sign of the cosine of the largest angle computed using the law of cosines.)
Of course, a right triangle can also be identified by looking at the slopes of the sides of the triangle. If any pair of slopes has a product that is -1, or if any pair is 0 and "undefined", then the triangle will be a right triangle.
__
The attached spreadsheet is designed to accommodate a number of different problem requirements. It shows both side lengths and slopes, and it shows the "form factor" as described above. The final classification is shown at far right.

A town recently dismissed 8 employees in order to meet their new budget reductions. The town had 9 employees over 50 years of age and 16 under 50. If the dismissed employees were selected at random, what is the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50? Express your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to four decimal places.
Answer:
The probability that at least 7 employees were over 50 is 0.0073%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a town recently dismissed 8 employees in order to meet their new budget reductions, and the town had 9 employees over 50 years of age and 16 under 50, if the dismissed employees were selected at random, to determine what is the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50, the following calculation must be performed:
9/25 x 8/24 x 7/23 x 6/22 x 5/21 x 4/20 x 3/19 = X
0.36 x 0.33 x 0.304 x 0.272 x 0.238 x 0.2 x 0.157 = X
0.000073 = X
100X = 0.0073
Therefore, the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50 is 0.0073%.
Which of the binomials below is a factor of this trinomial?
x^2+8x+16
This is because the given expression factors to (x+4)(x+4), which condenses to (x+4)^2.
To factor, think of two numbers that A) multiply to 16, and B) add to 8. Those values would be 4 and 4
4+4 = 8
4*4 = 16
So that's how we end up with (x+4)(x+4). You can use the FOIL rule to expand that out and get x^2+8x+16 again to help verify you have the correct factorization.
