it's a optional mathematics Questions please solve him​

Answers

Answer 1

Part A

Answer:  x = 20

--------------------------------

Explanation:

AP = arithmetic progression, which is another way of saying arithmetic sequence.

Let d = common difference

first term = 10second term = first+d = 10+d = xthird term = second+d = x+d = 30

Apply substitution like so

x+d = 30

10+d+d = 30 ... replaced x with 10+d

10+2d = 30

2d = 30-10

2d = 20

d = 20/2

d = 10 is the common difference

Therefore,

x = 10+d = 10+10 = 20

The AP {10,x,30} updates to {10,20,30}. We see the gap between terms is 10 units. All AP's have the same gap width between adjacent terms.

=============================================================

Part B

Answers:  x = 10 and y = 14

--------------------------------

Explanation:

We use the same ideas mentioned back in part A.

d = common difference = unknown for now

first term = 6second term = first+d = 6+d = xthird term = second+d = x+d = (6+d)+d = 6+2d = yfourth term = third+d = y+d = (6+2d)+d = 6+3d = 18

Hopefully you can see how each term builds up to form the next one. We'll solve that last equation like so

6+3d = 18

3d = 18-6

3d = 12

d = 12/3

d = 4

So we then can say:

x = 6+d = 6+4 = 10y = 6+2d = 6+2(4) = 6+8 = 14

The arithmetic sequence {6,x,y,18} updates to {6,10,14,18}. There's a gap of 4 between each adjacent term.

QUESTION 18

Here is how you multiply a 2×2 matrix by a column vector (just one column matrix).

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}a&b\\c&d\\\end{array}\right] *\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}ax&by\\cx&dy\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

Once you get that final matrix, you add the rows which will give you a final column vector. Let's do it with this question, as we are multiplying together the matrices A and v.

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-1&4\\2&0\\\end{array}\right] *\left[\begin{array}{ccc}8\\6\\\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-8&24\\16&0\\\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}16\\16\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

QUESTION 14

We have this equation of an ellipse and we need to solve for y. When we have a more complex equation to solve you get rid of the things furthest from the variable you are solving for first and then you get closer and closer to it.

[tex]\frac{x^2}{25} + \frac{y^2}{16}=1[/tex]

We subtract [tex]\frac{x^2}{25}[/tex] from both sides.

[tex]\frac{y^2}{16}=1-\frac{x^2}{25}[/tex]

We multiply both sides by 16.

[tex]y^2=1-\frac{x^2}{25}*16[/tex]

We square root both sides.

[tex]y=[/tex] [tex]\sqrt{1-\frac{x^2}{25}*16[/tex]

We can take a four out of our root (because 16 is a perfect square so it can be simplified more).

y= [tex]4\sqrt{1-\frac{x^2}{25}[/tex]

And we take out 1/5 (which is the square root of 1/25).

y=± [tex]\frac{4}{5}\sqrt{1-x^2[/tex]

QUESTION 17

We see that Sea Slugs have 3/10 matches won, so they have won 30% of their matches.

From now on, they will be winning 2/3 of their games. Let's look at the answer options.

A. If they play 15 more games, they will win 10 of them. Our total matches will be 25 (our original 10+15). So, we will have 13/25, which is equal to 52%, so this is incorrect.

B. If they play 10 more games they win 6 2/3 games (like that makes any sense) for a total of 9 2/3 games out of 20. This is about 48%, so this is incorrect.

C. If they play 40 games, they are winning fractional games again. They win 29 2/3 games out of 50 total, which is about 59%, but not quite 60. This is also incorrect.

D. If they play 45 matches, they will win 30 games. Add the original 10 and you have 40 games. Our total is 55. 40/55 is about 73%, so they have passed that 60% threshold, so this is the correct answer.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

QUESTION 16

Our question tells us that if we have two numbers x and y, and we add them, it has to be 24 or greater. By saying it can be equal to 24 or greater, we are going to be using a ≤ or ≥ sign. The opening of the arrow always faces the equal or greater quantity, and in this case it is x+y, so it will look like x+y≥24.

This eliminates answer choices B and D as they do not have the equal part on the inequality.

Product means to multiply, so it will be written as xy. It has to be less than 60, so in this case the greater quantity is 60, so the arrow will opening towards 60, so it will look like xy<60.

So, our final answer is A.

Q: Nitrates are organic compounds that are a main ingredient in fertilizers. When those fertilizers run off
into streams, the nitrates can have a toxic effect on
fish. An ecologist studying nitrate pollution in two
streams measures nitrate concentrations at 42 places on Stony Brook and 42 places on Mill Brook. The parallel dotplots display the data.


1. Explain what the dot above 12 in the Stony Brook graph represents.


Answers

By looking at the dot graph, we can see that the single dot above 12 in the Stony Brook graph, means that the ecologist find that in one of the 42 places measured in the Stony Brooks lake, the nitrate concentration was 12 mg/L

To understand this, first I want to give a brief explanation of how these graphs work.

You know that the ecologist did study the Nitrate pollution at 42 places in two lakes.

Each of these 42 places is represented with a dot in the corresponding graph.  Now looking at the graph, the position of the dots represents the nitrate concentration (you can see it in the horizontal axis) on one of these 42 places (42 dots for 42 places).

So, having a single dot above 12 in the Stony Brook graph, means that the ecologist find that in one of the 42 places measured in the Stony Brooks lake, the nitrate concentration was of 12 mg/L

If (x - 4) varies inversely as (y + 3) and x = 8 when y = 2, what is x when y = - 1?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=14[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If two values are inversely proportional, their product must be maintained. That way, if one value goes up, the other goes down by the same extent.

Therefore, if [tex](x-4)[/tex] and [tex](y+3)[/tex] vary inversely, their product will be the same for all values of [tex]x-4[/tex] and [tex]y+3[/tex].

Let [tex]x=8[/tex] and [tex]y=2[/tex] as given in the problem. Substitute values:

[tex](8-4)(2+3)=(4)(5)=20[/tex]

Hence, the maintained product is [tex]20[/tex].

Thus, we have the following equation:

[tex](x-4)(y+3)=20[/tex]

Substitute [tex]y=-1[/tex] to find the value of [tex]x[/tex] when [tex]y=-1[/tex]:

[tex](x-4)(-1+3)=20,\\(x-4)(2)=20,\\x-4=10,\\x=10+4=\boxed{14}[/tex]

Sin A 4/5.

Find
COSA + tan A

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite side (the one not connected to A) = 4

The hypotenuse is 5

The adjacent side needs to be found for the cosine and the tangent.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a = opposite side = 4

b = adjacent side = ?

c = hypotenuse = 5

4^2 + x^2 = 5^2

16 + x^2 = 25          

x^2 = 25 - 16

x^2 = 9

x = sqrt(9)

x = 3

cos(A) = adjacent / hypotenuse = 3/5

Tan(A) = opposite / adjacent = 4/3

cos(A) + tan(A) = 3/5 + 4/3

cos(A) + tan(A) = 9/15 + 20/15 = 29/15

Given: SinA = 4/5

To find: CosA + TanA

Solution:
16/25 + Cos²A = 1 [Sin²A + Cos²A = 1]
Cos²A = 1 - 16/25
Cos²A = 25 - 16/25
Cos²A = 9/25
CosA = 3/5
We know that TanA = SinA/CosA
TanA = (4/5)/(3/5)
TanA = 4/3
CosA + TanA = 3/5 + 4/3 = 29/15

EMERGENCY A speeding ticket costs $80 plus $10 for each mile per hour over the speed limit the violator was traveling. How much would someone going 12 miles per hour faster than the speed limit have to pay for their ticket?

Answers

Answer:

$200

Step-by-step explanation:

Fine calculated per mile = $10

Fine calculated for 'm' mile = 10 * m  = 10m

Cost paid by violator = 80 + 10m

m = 12 miles

Cost paid by the violator = 80 + 10*12

                                         = 80 + 120

When a new cellphone is put on the market, the demand each month can be described by the function C of t is equal to negative square root of the quantity t squared plus 4 times t minus 12 end quantity plus 3 where C (t) represents the demand of the cellphone (measured in millions of people) and the time, t, is measured in months. Which of the following solution(s) are valid for a positive demand?

Answers

A function is positive where it is above the x-axis

The valid solution for positive demand are; t = 3, and t = 2

The reason the above values are correct is as follows:

Known parameters:

The given function of the demand is; [tex]C(t) = \mathbf{ -\sqrt{t^2 + 4 \times t - 12} +3}[/tex]

Where;

C(t) = The demand of the cellphone (in millions of people)

t = The number of months

The condition positive demand is C(t) ≥ 0

Therefore;

[tex]-\sqrt{t^2 + 4 \times t - 12} +3 \geq 0[/tex]

[tex]-\sqrt{t^2 + 4 \times t - 12} \geq -3[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{t^2 + 4 \times t - 12} \leq 3[/tex]

t² + 4·t - 12 ≤ 9

t² + 4·t - 12 - 9 ≤ 0

t² + 4·t - 21 ≤ 0

(t - 3) × (t + 7) ≤ 0

∴ t ≤ 3, or t ≥ -7

At t = 2 < 3, we have;

C(2) = -√(2² + 4×2 - 12) + 3 = 3

At t = 1 < 3, the function is; C(1) = -√(1² + 4×1 - 12) + 3 (Is undefined)

Therefore, the valid solution for positive demand are;

t = 3, and t = 2
