A gift box shown below is packed with small cubic 1/2 inch blocks. The blocks are packed tightly with no spaces between them.
A. How many blocks are in the gift box?
B. What is the volume of the gift box?
C. Find how much wrapping paper will be needed to wrap the gift box (hint: find surface area).
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
the box is
9 in × 3.5 in × 4.5 in = 141.75 in³
each block is
0.5 in × 0.5 in × 0.5 in = 0.125 in³ (1/8 in³)
so, we can fit
141.75 / 0.125 = 1134
blocks into the box.
and they fit neatly, as the dimensions of the box and the cubes allow a tight packing without any empty left over space in the box.

The function y = 2 cos 3(x + 2π∕3) +1 has a phase shift (or horizontal shift) of
A) –2π∕3
B) 3
C) 1
D) 2
Answers
Answer:
-2pi/3
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2 cos 3(x + 2π∕3) +1
y = A sin(B(x + C)) + D
amplitude is A
period is 2π/B
phase shift is C (positive is to the left)
vertical shift is D
We have a shift to the left of 2 pi /3
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard cosine function has the form:
[tex]\displaystyle y = a\cos (b(x-c)) + d[/tex]
Where |a| is the amplitude, 2π / b is the period, c is the phase shift, and d is the vertical shift.
We have the function:
[tex]\displaystyle y = 2 \cos 3\left(x + \frac{2\pi}{3}\right) + 1[/tex]
We can rewrite this as:
[tex]\displaystyle y = \left(2\right)\cos 3\left(x - \left(-\frac{2\pi}{3}\right)\right) + 1[/tex]
Therefore, a = 2, b = 3, c = -2π/3, and d = 1.
Our phase shift is represented by c. Thus, the phase shift is -2π/3.
Our answer is A.

People were asked if they owned an artificial Christmas tree. Of 78 people who lived in an apartment, 38 own an artificial Christmas tree. Also it was learned that of 84 people who own their home, 46 own an artificial Christmas tree. Is there a significant difference in the proportion of apartment dwellers and home owners who own artificial Christmas trees
Answers
Answer:
The p-value of the test is 0.4414, higher than the standard significance level of 0.05, which means that there is not a a significant difference in the proportion of apartment dwellers and home owners who own artificial Christmas trees.
Step-by-step explanation:
Before testing the hypothesis, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
Subtraction between normal variables:
When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.
Apartment:
38 out of 78, so:
[tex]p_A = \frac{38}{78} = 0.4872[/tex]
[tex]s_A = \sqrt{\frac{0.4872*0.5128}{78}} = 0.0566[/tex]
Home:
46 out of 84, so:
[tex]p_H = \frac{46}{84} = 0.5476[/tex]
[tex]s_H = \sqrt{\frac{0.5476*0.4524}{84}} = 0.0543[/tex]
Test if the there a significant difference in the proportion of apartment dwellers and home owners who own artificial Christmas trees:
At the null hypothesis, we test if there is no difference, that is, the subtraction of the proportions is equal to 0, so:
[tex]H_0: p_A - p_H = 0[/tex]
At the alternative hypothesis, we test if there is a difference, that is, the subtraction of the proportions is different of 0, so:
[tex]H_1: p_A - p_H \neq 0[/tex]
The test statistic is:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, and s is the standard error.
0 is tested at the null hypothesis:
This means that [tex]\mu = 0[/tex]
From the samples:
[tex]X = p_A - p_H = 0.4872 - 0.5476 = -0.0604[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{s_A^2 + s_H^2} = \sqrt{0.0566^2 + 0.0543^2} = 0.0784[/tex]
Value of the test statistic:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]z = \frac{-0.0604 - 0}{0.0784}[/tex]
[tex]z = -0.77[/tex]
P-value of the test and decision:
The p-value of the test is the probability of the difference being of at least 0.0604, to either side, plus or minus, which is P(|z| > 0.77), given by 2 multiplied by the p-value of z = -0.77.
Looking at the z-table, z = -0.77 has a p-value of 0.2207.
2*0.2207 = 0.4414
The p-value of the test is 0.4414, higher than the standard significance level of 0.05, which means that there is not a a significant difference in the proportion of apartment dwellers and home owners who own artificial Christmas trees.

Find the length of BC
A. 27.22
B. 11.62
C. 22.02
D. 19.78
Answers
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we know the measure of ∠B and the side opposite to ∠B and we want to find BC, which is adjacent to ∠B, we can use the tangent ratio. Recall that:
[tex]\displaystyle \tan\theta = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}[/tex]
The angle is 54°, the opposite side measures 16 units, and the adjacent side is BC. Substitute:
[tex]\displaystyle \tan 54^\circ = \frac{16}{BC}[/tex]
Solve for BC. We can take the reciprocal of both sides:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{\tan 54^\circ} = \frac{BC}{16}[/tex]
Multiply:
[tex]\displaystyle BC = \frac{16}{\tan 54^\circ}[/tex]
Use a calculator. Hence:
[tex]\displaystyle BC \approx 11 .62\text{ units}[/tex]
BC measures approximately 11.62 units.
Our answer is B.

If 2x - 5y – 7 = 0 is perpendicular to the line ax - y - 3 = 0 what is the value of a ?
A) a =2/3
B) a =5/2
C) a = -2/3
D) a = -5/2
Answers
Answer:
D) a = - 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
2x -5y - 7 = 0
5y = 2x - 7
y = 2/5 x - 7
the slope of this line is therefore 2/5 (factor of x).
the perpendicular slope is then (exchange y and x and flip the sign) -5/2, which is then a and the factor of x.

In 2012 your car was worth $10,000. In 2014 your car was worth $8,850. Suppose the value of your car decreased at a constant rate of change. Define a function f to determine the value of your car (in dollars) in terms of the number of years t since 2012.
Answers
Answer:
The function to determine the value of your car (in dollars) in terms of the number of years t since 2012 is:
[tex]f(t) = 10000(0.9407)^t[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Value of the car:
Constant rate of change, so the value of the car in t years after 2012 is given by:
[tex]f(t) = f(0)(1-r)^t[/tex]
In which f(0) is the initial value and r is the decay rate, as a decimal.
In 2012 your car was worth $10,000.
This means that [tex]f(0) = 10000[/tex], thus:
[tex]f(t) = 10000(1-r)^t[/tex]
2014 your car was worth $8,850.
2014 - 2012 = 2, so:
[tex]f(2) = 8850[/tex]
We use this to find 1 - r.
[tex]f(t) = 10000(1-r)^t[/tex]
[tex]8850 = 10000(1-r)^2[/tex]
[tex](1-r)^2 = \frac{8850}{10000}[/tex]
[tex](1-r)^2 = 0.885[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{(1-r)^2} = \sqrt{0.885}[/tex]
[tex]1 - r = 0.9407[/tex]
Thus
[tex]f(t) = 10000(1-r)^t[/tex]
[tex]f(t) = 10000(0.9407)^t[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x=5[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf x=5}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We are asked to solve for x.
We are given a pair of intersecting lines and 2 angles measuring (13x+19)° and 84°. The angles are opposite each other, so they are vertical angles. This means they are congruent or have the same angle measure.
Since the 2 angles are congruent, we can set them equal to each other.
[tex](13x+19)=84[/tex]
Solve for x by isolating the variable. This is done by performing inverse operations.
19 is being added to 13x. The inverse operation of addition is subtraction. Subtract 19 from both sides of the equation.
[tex]13x+19-19= 84 -19[/tex]
[tex]13x= 84 -19[/tex]
[tex]13x=65[/tex]
x is being multiplied by 13. The inverse operation of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 13.
[tex]\frac {13x}{13}= \frac{65}{13}[/tex]
[tex]x= \frac{65}{13}[/tex]
[tex]x= 5[/tex]
For this pair of vertical angles, x is equal to 5.
