If f(x)=ax+b/x and f(1)=1 and f(2)=5, what is the value of A and B?
Answer:
[tex]\huge\boxed{a=9 ; b = -8}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]f(x) = \frac{ax+b}{x}[/tex]
Putting x = 1
=> [tex]f(1) = \frac{a(1)+b}{1}[/tex]
Given that f(1) = 1
=> [tex]1 = a + b[/tex]
=> [tex]a+b = 1[/tex] -------------------(1)
Now,
Putting x = 2
=> [tex]f(2) = \frac{a(2)+b}{2}[/tex]
Given that f(2) = 5
=> [tex]5 = \frac{2a+b}{2}[/tex]
=> [tex]2a+b = 5*2[/tex]
=> [tex]2a+b = 10[/tex] ----------------(2)
Subtracting (2) from (1)
[tex]a+b-(2a+b) = 1-10\\a+b-2a-b = -9\\a-2a = -9\\-a = -9\\a = 9[/tex]
For b , Put a = 9 in equation (1)
[tex]9+b = 1\\Subtracting \ both \ sides \ by \ 9\\b = 1-9\\b = -8[/tex]
In the given figure, if POQ is a straight line then find ∠POT. please help !!!!!!
Answer:
∠POT = 78°
Step-by-step explanation:
If POQ is straight then
x + 18° + 50° + x + 24° = 180° add like terms
2x + 92° = 180°
2x = 180° - 92°
2x = 88° and x = 44 If we say SOT is a straight line then
∠POT + 50° + x + 18° = 180°
∠POT + 102° = 180°
∠POT = 78°

Step-by-step explanation:
Can somebody explain how trigonometric form polar equations are divided/multiplied?
Answer:
Attachment 1 : Option C
Attachment 2 : Option A
Step-by-step explanation:
( 1 ) Expressing the product of z1 and z2 would be as follows,
[tex]14\left[\cos \left(\frac{\pi \:}{5}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi \:\:}{5}\right)\right]\cdot \:2\sqrt{2}\left[\cos \left(\frac{3\pi \:}{2}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{3\pi \:\:}{2}\right)\right][/tex]
Now to solve such problems, you will need to know what cos(π / 5) is, sin(π / 5) etc. If you don't know their exact value, I would recommend you use a calculator,
cos(π / 5) = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{5}+1}{4}[/tex],
sin(π / 5) = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5-\sqrt{5}}}{4}[/tex]
cos(3π / 2) = 0,
sin(3π / 2) = - 1
Let's substitute those values in our expression,
[tex]14\left[\frac{\sqrt{5}+1}{4}+i\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5-\sqrt{5}}}{4}\right]\cdot \:2\sqrt{2}\left[0-i\right][/tex]
And now simplify the expression,
[tex]14\sqrt{5-\sqrt{5}}+i\left(-7\sqrt{10}-7\sqrt{2}\right)[/tex]
The exact value of [tex]14\sqrt{5-\sqrt{5}}[/tex] = [tex]23.27510\dots[/tex] and [tex](-7\sqrt{10}-7\sqrt{2}\right))[/tex] = [tex]-32.03543\dots[/tex] Therefore we have the expression [tex]23.27510 - 32.03543i[/tex], which is close to option c. As you can see they approximated the solution.
( 2 ) Here we will apply the following trivial identities,
cos(π / 3) = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex],
sin(π / 3) = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex],
cos(- π / 6) = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex],
sin(- π / 6) = [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Substitute into the following expression, representing the quotient of the given values of z1 and z2,
[tex]15\left[cos\left(\frac{\pi \:}{3}\right)+isin\left(\frac{\pi \:\:}{3}\right)\right] \div \:3\sqrt{2}\left[cos\left(\frac{-\pi \:}{6}\right)+isin\left(\frac{-\pi \:\:}{6}\right)\right][/tex] ⇒
[tex]15\left[\frac{1}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right]\div \:3\sqrt{2}\left[\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}+-\frac{1}{2}\right][/tex]
The simplified expression will be the following,
[tex]i\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}[/tex] or in other words [tex]\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}i[/tex] or [tex]\frac{5i\sqrt{2}}{2}[/tex]
The solution will be option a, as you can see.
Simplify using calculator.. I'm not sure if i am putting it in the calculator right

If 2 x 2 + 13 x − 7 = 0 , then x could equal which of the following?
Hi there! :)
Answer:
x = 1/2 or -7.
Step-by-step explanation:
(I'm assuming the expression is 2x² + 13x - 7 = 0)
Factor the equation to solve for the possible values of "x":
2x² + 13x - 7 = 0
When factored, we get:
(2x - 1) ( x + 7) = 0
Use the Zero-Product property to solve for the roots:
2x - 1 = 0
2x = 1
x = 1/2.
-----------
x + 7 = 0
x = -7.
Therefore, possible values of x are x = -1/2, 7.
Answer:
x = 1/2 x=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
2 x^2 + 13 x − 7 = 0
Factor
(2x-1)(x+7)=0
Using the zero product property
2x-1 =0 x+7=0
2x=1 x =-7
x = 1/2 x=-7
Write the function in terms of unit step functions. Find the Laplace transform of the given function. f(t) = 5, 0 ≤ t < 7 −3, t ≥ 7
Rewrite f in terms of the unit step function:
[tex]f(t)=\begin{cases}5&\text{for }0\le t<7\\-3&\text{for }t\ge7\end{cases}[/tex]
[tex]\implies f(t)=5(u(t)-u(t-7))-3u(t-7)=5u(t)-8u(t-7)[/tex]
where
[tex]u(t)=\begin{cases}1&\text{for }t\ge0\\0&\text{for }t<0\end{cases}[/tex]
Recall the time-shifting property of the Laplace transform:
[tex]L[u(t-c)f(t-c)]=e^{-cs}L[f(t)][/tex]
and the Laplace transform of a constant function,
[tex]L[k]=\dfrac ks[/tex]
So we have
[tex]L[f(t)]=L[5u(t)-8u(t-7)]=5L[1]-8e^{-7s}L[1]=\boxed{\dfrac{5-8e^{-7s}}s}[/tex]
In this exercise you have to find the laplace transform:
[tex]L[f(t)]=\frac{5-8e^{-7s}}{s}[/tex]
Rewrite f in terms of the unit step function:
[tex]f(t)=\left \{ {{5, for 0\leq t\leq 7} \atop {-3, for t\geq 7}} \right. \\f(t)= 5(u(t)-u(t-7)-3u(t-7)=5u(t)-8u(t-7)[/tex]
Where:
[tex]u(t)= \left \{ {{1, t\geq 0} \atop {0, t<0}} \right.[/tex]
Recall the time-shifting property of the Laplace transform:
[tex]L[u(t-c)f(t-c)]= e^{-cs}L[f(t)][/tex]
and the Laplace transform of a constant function,
[tex]L[k]=\frac{k}{s}[/tex]
So we have:
[tex]L[f(t)]= L[5u(t)-8u(t-7)]= 5L[1]-8e^{-7s}L[1]= \frac{5-8e^{-7s}}{s}[/tex]

Identify the inverse function of f(x) = VX - 2 + 3.
Answer:
[tex]\huge\boxed{f^{-1}(x) = (x-3)^2+2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]f(x) = \sqrt{x-2} + 3[/tex]
Replace y = f(x)
[tex]y = \sqrt{x-2} + 3[/tex]
Exchange x and y
[tex]x = \sqrt{y-2}+3[/tex]
Solve for y
[tex]x = \sqrt{y-2}+3[/tex]
Subtracting both sides by 3
[tex]x - 3 = \sqrt{y-2}[/tex]
Taking square on both sides
[tex](x-3)^2 = y -2[/tex]
Adding 2 to both sides
[tex]y = (x-3)^2+2[/tex]
Substitute y = [tex]f^{-1}(x)[/tex]
[tex]f^{-1}(x) = (x-3)^2+2[/tex]
Answer:
[tex] \boxed{ {f}^{ - 1} (x) = {(x - 3)}^{2} + 2}[/tex]Option D is the correct option
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] \mathsf{f(x) = \sqrt{x - 2} + 3}[/tex]
Replace f(x) with y
[tex] \mathsf{y = \sqrt{x - 2} + 3}[/tex]
Interchange variables
[tex] \mathsf{x = \sqrt{y - 2} + 3}[/tex]
[tex] \mathsf{{(x - 3)}^{2} = {( \sqrt{y - 2)} }^{2} }[/tex]
[tex] \mathsf{ {(x - 3)}^{2} = y - 2}[/tex]
[tex] \mathsf{ y = {(x - 3)}^{2} + 2}[/tex]
Replace y with f ⁻¹( x )
[tex] \mathsf{ {f}^{ - 1} (x) = {(x - 3)}^{2} + 2}[/tex]

Which transformation was applied to Figure 1 in order to arrive at Figure 2? Geometry A
Answer:
(B) Reflection in the x-axis
Step-by-step explanation:
We can see that these triangles have the exact same x-coordinates, however their y coordinates are opposite each other. This means that if we wanted to get one of the triangles to the other, we’d have to reflect over the x-axis
(by default, if the x values are the same and y are opposite, reflect across x axis. If y values are the same and x is opposite, reflect over y. it’s sort of like opposites.)

The Airline Passenger Association studied the relationship between the number of passengers on a particular flight and the cost of the flight. It seems logical that more passengers on the flight will result in more weight and more luggage, which in turn will result in higher fuel costs. For a sample of 21 flights, the correlation between the number of passengers and total fuel cost was 0.668.

(2)
Compute the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)
Value of the test statistic
Answer:
Decision Rule: To reject the null hypothesis if t > 1.328
t = 3.913
Step-by-step explanation:
The summary of the given statistics include:
sample size n = 21
the correlation between the number of passengers and total fuel cost r = 0.668
(1) We are tasked to state the decision rule for 0.10 significance level
The degree of freedom df = n - 1
degree of freedom df = 21 - 1
degree of freedom df = 19
The null and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as:
[tex]H_o : \rho < 0\\ \\ Ha : \rho > 0[/tex]
The critical value for [tex]t_{\alpha, df}[/tex] is [tex]t_{010, 19}[/tex] = 1.328
Decision Rule: To reject the null hypothesis if t > 1.328
The test statistics can be computed as follows by using the formula for t-test for Pearson Correlation:
[tex]t = r*\sqrt{ \dfrac{(n-2)}{(1-r^2)}[/tex]
[tex]t = 0.668*\sqrt{ \dfrac{(21-2)}{(1-0.668^2)}[/tex]
[tex]t = 0.668*\sqrt{ \dfrac{(19)}{(1-0.446224)}[/tex]
[tex]t = 0.668*\sqrt{ \dfrac{(19)}{(0.553776)}[/tex]
[tex]t = 0.668*5.858[/tex]
t = 3.913144
t = 3.913 to 3 decimal places
The Tran family and the Green family each used their sprinklers last summer. The water output rate for the Tran family's sprinkler was 35L per hour. The water output rate for the Green family's sprinkler was 40L per hour. The families used their sprinklers for a combined total of 50 hours, resulting in a total water output of 1900L. How long was each sprinkler used?
Answer:
Tran family's sprinkler was used for 20 hours
Green's family's sprinkler was used for 30 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the hours for which Tran family's sprinkler used is x hours
water output rate for the Tran family's sprinkler = 35L per hour
water output from Tran family's sprinkler in x hours = 35*x L = 35x
Let the hours for which Green family's sprinkler used is y hours
water output rate for the Green family's sprinkler = 40L per hour
water output from Green family's sprinkler in x hours = 40*y L = 40y
Given
The families used their sprinklers for a combined total of 50 hours
thus
x + y = 50 -------------------equation 1
y = 50-x
total water output of 1900L
35x+40y = 1900 -------------------equation 1
using y = 50-x in equation 2, we have
35x + 40(50-x) = 1900
35x + 2000 - 40x = 1900
=> -5x = 1900 - 2000 = -100
=> x = -100/-5 = 20
y = 50-20 = 30
Thus,
Tran family's sprinkler was used for 20 hours
Green's family's sprinkler was used for 30 hours

Answer:
y = 90x = 302x° = 60°(y+x)° = 120°(y-x)° = 60°Step-by-step explanation:
Adjacent angles are supplementary, so ...
(y +x) +(y -x) = 180
2y = 180 . . . . . . . . . simplify
y = 90 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
__
2x +(y +x) = 180
3x +90 = 180 . . . . substitute for y
x + 30 = 60 . . . . . . divide by 3
x = 30 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 30

With these values of x and y, the angle measures are ...
2x° = 2(30)° = 60°
(y+x)° = (90+30)° = 120°
(y-x)° = (90-30)° = 60°

On a coordinate plane, a line has points (negative 2, negative 4) and (4, 2). Point P is at (0, 4). Which points lie on the line that passes through point P and is parallel to the given line? Select three options. (–4, 2) (–1, 3) (–2, 2) (4, 2) (–5, –1)
Answer:
the correct options are:
(–1, 3), (–2, 2) and (–5, –1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a line passes through two points
A(-2, -4) and B(4, 2)
Another point P(0, 4)
To find:
Which points lie on the line that passes through P and is parallel to line AB ?
Solution:
First of all, let us the find the equation of the line which is parallel to AB and passes through point P.
Parallel lines have the same slope.
Slope of a line is given as:
[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
[tex]m=\dfrac{2-(-4)}{4-(-2)} = 1[/tex]
Now, using slope intercept form ([tex]y = mx+c[/tex]) of a line, we can write the equation of line parallel to AB:
[tex]y =(1)x+c \Rightarrow y = x+c[/tex]
Now, putting the point P(0,4) to find c:
[tex]4 = 0 +c \Rightarrow c = 4[/tex]
So, the equation is [tex]\bold{y=x+4}[/tex]
So, the coordinates given in the options which have value of y coordinate equal to 4 greater than x coordinate will be true.
So, the correct options are:

The heights of North American women are nor-mally distributed with a mean of 64 inches and a standard deviation of 2 inches. a. b. c. What is the probability that a randomly selected woman is taller than 66 inches
Answer:
0.1587
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Mean (m) of distribution = 64 inches
Standard deviation (sd) of distribution = 2 inches
Probability that a randomly selected woman is taller than 66 inches
For a normal distribution :
Z - score = (x - mean) / standard deviation
Where x = 66
P(X > 66) = P( Z > (66 - 64) / 2)
P(X > 66) = P(Z > (2 /2)
P(X > 66) = P(Z > 1)
P(Z > 1) = 1 - P(Z ≤ 1)
P(Z ≤ 1) = 0.8413 ( from z distribution table)
1 - P(Z ≤ 1) = 1 - 0.8413
= 0.1587

We can write the polynomial as below.
[tex]k(x-4)(x-4)(x-4)(x-x_4)(x-x_5)=k(x-4)^3(x-x_4)(x-x_5)[/tex]
... −2 is the only other zero
Because this is the only other zero, we can deduce that -2 is a zero of multiplicity 2.
[tex]k(x-4)(x-4)(x-4)(x-x_4)(x-x_5)\\\\=k(x-4)^3(x-(-2))(x-(-2))\\\\=k(x-4)^3(x+2)^2[/tex]
... leading coefficient is 2.
Finally, it means that k = 2 and then the polynomial function is:
[tex]\large \boxed{2(x-4)^3(x+2)^2}[/tex]
Hope this helps.
Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.

A nutrition laboratory tested 25 "reduced sodium" hotdogs of a certain brand, finding that the mean sodium content is 310 mg with a standard deviation of 36 mg.
Construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean sodium content of this brand of hot dog and interpret a 95% level of confidence. Show all work
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval is [tex]295.9 < \mu< 324.1[/tex]
A 95% level of confidence mean that there is 95% chance that the true population mean will be in this interval
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size is [tex]n = 25[/tex]
The mean is [tex]\= x = 310 \ mg[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 36 \ mg[/tex]
Given that the confidence level is 95% then the level of significance is mathematically represented as
[tex]\alpha = 100 - 95[/tex]
=> [tex]\alpha = 5\%[/tex]
=> [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]
Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table , the value is
[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =Z_{\frac{0.05 }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]
Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]E = 1.96 * \frac{36 }{\sqrt{25} }[/tex]
[tex]E = 14.1[/tex]
The 95% level of confidence interval is mathematically represented as
[tex]\= x - E < \mu<\ \= x - E[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]310- 14.1 < \mu< 310+ 14.1[/tex]
[tex]295.9 < \mu< 324.1[/tex]
The 95% level of confidence mean that there is 95% chance that the true population mean will be in this interval
