    LM² = 529 + 400 - 920cos(119)°

    LM² = 929 - 920cos(119)°

    LM = [tex]\sqrt{929+446.03}[/tex]

If you have $100 in a savings account earning 3% interest per year, how much will you have in
two years?

Answers

Answer:

$106

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 100$ in savings account

Interest rate =3%

Time = 2 years

Total in 2 years:

100 + 2*3% = 100 *1.06= $106

The interest formula is as follows:

Amount Invested · Rate = Interest Earned

If we invest $100 at 3% interest per year,

how much do we earn that year?

Well based on our formula, we can simply multiply 100 · 3%.

Think of the 3% as 3/100.

So we have 100 · 3/100 and the 100's cancel and we're left with 3.

So $3 is earned in 1 year.

So after two years, you will have double that or $6.

What is the value of x to the nearest tenth?

Answers

Answer:

x=9.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The dot in the middle represents the center of the circle, so therefore, the line that is represented by 16 is the radius. Since that is the radius, the side that is the hypotenuse of the small triangle is also 16, since they have the same distance.

The line represented by 25.6 with x as its bisector shows that when we divide it by 2, the other side of the triangle besides the hypotenuse is 12.8.

Now that we have the two sides of the triangle, we can find the last side (represented by x). Use pythagorean theorem:

[tex]a^2 +b^2=c^2\\x^2+(12.8)^2=16^2\\x^2+163.84=256\\x^2=92.16\\x=9.6[/tex]

Answer: 10.5 units

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

Explanation:

Both AB and XY are the first two letters of ABC and XYZ respectively. So we have one fraction of AB/XY = 2/7.

AC and XZ are the first and last letters of ABC and XYZ respectively. We can form another fraction AC/XZ. I'm dividing in the same order of small over large to keep things consistent. As you can probably guess, the order of the letters ABC and XYZ are important so we see how the angles match up and how the proportional sides match up.

Because the triangles are similar, the two fractions formed earlier are equal to one another.

The equation we need to solve is AB/XY = AC/XZ

-----

AB/XY = AC/XZ

2/7 = 3/N ... plug in given values

2N = 7*3 .... cross multiply

2N = 21

N = 21/2 .... divide both sides by 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

● 1 (y+3) = 2 (y+(-4) )+ (-7)

When you multiply by 1 you get the same result.

● y+3 = 2 (y+(-4))+(-7)

When you have a + sign with a - sign write -.

● y+3 = 2(y-4)-7

Multiply 2 by (y-4) and simplify

● y+3 = (2y-8)-7

● y+3 = 2y -8-7

● y+3 = 2y -15

Add 15 to both sides

● y +3+15 = 2y-15 +15

● y + 18 = 2y

Sibstract y from both sides

● y +18 - y = 2y -y

● 18 = y

One-third of the boys and three-eighths of the girls wear spectacles, If there are 612 pupils who do not wear spectacles, a)find the total number of the pupils in the school, and b) how many more girls than boys are there in the school

Answers

Answer:

a) 952

b) 136

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of b:g = 3:4, based on this we have:

Number of boys = 3xNumber of girls = 4xTotal number of pupils = 3x+4x = 7x

Number of spectacle wearers:

1/3*3x + 3/8*4x = x + 3/2x = 2.5x

Number of those not wearing spectacles:

7x - 2.5x= 4.5x

And this number equals to 612, then we can find the value of x:

4.5 x = 612x= 612/4.5x= 136

a) Total number of pupils:

7x = 7*136 = 952

b) The difference in the number of boys and girls:

4x-3x= x = 136

Answer:

total number of students: 952

number of girls more than boys :136 more girls

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 of boys +3/8 girls= spectacles

612 people do not wear spectacles

3:4= boys: girls

total number of students

3+4=7

boys + girls = total ratio

7= total ratio

1/3×3=1 3/8×4=3/2

1+3/2=5/2

7-5/2=9/2 9/2=612 students

If 9/2=612 Then 7=?

7= 7÷ 9/2×612

=952 people

Girls more than boys

if 7= 952

3= 3/7 × 952=408 boys

if 7 = 952

4= 4/7 ×952=544girls

Answers

Answer:

f(n) = 0.15n + 0.35

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence of the problem above is an arithmetic sequence

For an nth term in an arithmetic sequence

F(n) = a + ( n - 1)d

where a is the first term

n is the number of terms

d is the common difference

To find the equation first find the common difference

0.65 - 0.5 = 0.15 or 0.80 - 0.65 = 0.15

The first term is 0.5

Substitute the values into the above formula

That's

f(n) = 0.5 + (n - 1)0.15

f(n) = 0.5 + 0.15n - 0.15

The final answer is

f(n) = 0.15n + 0.35

. One sample has M = 18 and a second sample has M = 14. If the pooled variance for the two samples is 16, what is the value of Cohen’s d?

Answers

Answer:

Cohen's d : 1.00

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that M₁ = 18, and M₂ = 14. Given that the pooled variance for the these two samples are 16, S²Pooled = 16, and therefore S - pooled = 4.

The formula to solve for the value of Cohen's d is as follows,

d = M₁ - M₂ / S - pooled,

d = 18 - 14 / 4 = 4 / 4 = 1

Therefore the value of Cohen's d = 1

(3 + 3+ 4+ 5+ 5+ 5+ 6+ 7+ 7)/9

=3

If you are adding a number the numbers would be

3 + 3+ 4+ 5+ 5+ 5+ 6+ 7+ 7+?/10

Its ten because now you would have 10 numbers.

You know it equals 6, so you ask yourself: What divided by 10 would give you 6 or this equation:

( 3 + 3+ 4+ 5+ 5+ 5+ 6+ 7+ 7+?)/10=6

(45+?)/10=6

multiply both sides of the equal sign by 10

10(45+?)/10=6*10

The 10 on the bottom of the left side cancels out.

(45+?)=60

Subtract 15 from both sides of the equal sign

Answer:

The  99% confidence interval is  [tex]16.32< \mu <29.88[/tex]

The interpretation is that there is 99% confidence that the true mean lies within the limits

The margin of error is  [tex]E = 6.783[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 23.1[/tex]

     The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 6.6 \ miles[/tex]

    The  sample size is  n = 10

     

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

     [tex]df = n-1[/tex]

=>  [tex]df = 10-1[/tex]

=>  [tex]df =9[/tex]

Given that the confidence level is 99% , the n the level of significance is mathematically evaluated as

         [tex]\alpha = 100 - 99[/tex]

         [tex]\alpha =1\%[/tex]

        [tex]\alpha =0.01[/tex]

Next we obtain the critical value of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] with a df of  9  from from the student t-distribution table the value is  

          [tex]t _{\frac{\alpha }{2} , df } = 3.250[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

           [tex]E = t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} , df } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

          [tex]E = 3.250 * \frac{6.6 }{\sqrt{10} }[/tex]

         [tex]E = 6.783[/tex]

The 99% confidence interval is

      [tex]\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E[/tex]

=>   [tex]23.1 - 6.78 < \mu <23.1 + 6.78[/tex]

=>  [tex]16.32< \mu <29.88[/tex]

The interpretation is that there is 99% confidence that the true mean lies within the limits

From your earlier questions, we found

[tex]2\sin(4\pi t)+5\cos(4\pi t)=\sqrt{29}\sin\left(4\pi t+\tan^{-1}\left(\dfrac52\right)\right)[/tex]

so the wave has amplitude √29. The weight's maximum negative position from equilibrium is then -√29, so you are solving for t in the given interval for which

[tex]\sqrt{29}\sin\left(4\pi t+\tan^{-1}\left(\dfrac52\right)\right)=-\dfrac{\sqrt{29}}2[/tex]

Divide both sides by √29:

[tex]\sin\left(4\pi t+\tan^{-1}\left(\dfrac52\right)\right)=-\dfrac12[/tex]

Take the inverse sine of both sides, noting that we get two possible solution sets because we have

[tex]\sin\left(\dfrac{7\pi}6\right)=\sin\left(\dfrac{11\pi}6\right)=-\dfrac12[/tex]

and the sine wave has period 2π, so [tex]\sin x=\sin(x+2\pi)=\sin(x+4\pi)=\cdots[/tex].

[tex]\implies 4\pi t+\tan^{-1}\left(\dfrac52\right)=\dfrac{7\pi}6+2n\pi[/tex]

OR

[tex]\implies 4\pi t+\tan^{-1}\left(\dfrac52\right)=\dfrac{11\pi}6+2n\pi[/tex]

where n is any integer.

Now solve for t :

In a frequency distribution of 290 scores, the mean is 99 and the median is 86. One would expect this distribution to be:

Answers

Answer:

positively skewed to the right

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the central tendency is a profound way to describe the mean, median and mode. The measure of central tendency indicates where the center of distribution tends to be. The measure of central tendency provide a validity and answers whether the scores are high or generally low.

In this measure,The mean is usually pulled to the tail. The skewed is determined by where the tail goes, to the right side , it is positively skewed  and to the left side , it is known as negatively skewed distribution.

Given that:

In a frequency of distribution of 290 scores,

the mean  = 99

the median = 86

One would expect this distribution to be; positively skewed to the right  since the mean value is greater than the median value.

Answer:

1.

d. (-14) + (-8)

2.

a. (-14) + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

(-14) - 8 is equal to (-14) + (-8) because we still add two negative values so the result wouldn't change.

(-14) - (-8) is equal to (-14) + 8 because there's two negative sign in front of 8 and two negative values multiplied makes a positive result.

Answer:

1. D  

2. A

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  It asks you what expression has the same value as (-14)-8.  All you need to do is find other equations that have the same value as that.  So the equation is -14-8.  IF a negative is outside a parenthesis with a positive number inside like -(+5), it is going to be -5.  If it's both negative: -(-5), it will be +5.  If it is both positive: +(+5), it is going to be +5.  

IMPORTANT!

- and + = -

- and - = +

+ and + = +

What we are looking for: -14-8

So choice A is (-14)+8 which is simplified to -14+8.  So, this one isn't right.

Choice B: 14-(-8)= 14+8.  So, it's incorrect.

Choice C: 14+(-8)= 14-8.  Again, it's not -14-8 so it's not right.

Choice D: (-14)+(-8)= -14-8.  This equation matches the one we are looking for!  So it's correct!

2. Same thing as number 1.  Let's simplify the equation it wants us to find first.  

(-14)-(-8)= -14+8

So -14+8 is what we are looking for.

Choice A: (-14)+8= -14+8.  It matches!  So it is correct.  Let's look at the other options anyway.

Choice B: 14-(-8)= 14+8.  Nope.  Not right.

Choice C: 14+(-8)= 14-8 because - always beats +.  So, this one is also incorrect.

Choice D: (-14)+(-8)= -14-8.  Oops, this is also wrong.  So choice A is the right answer.

Keep in mind, when you start getting questions like this with numbers inside the parenthesis as well, you want to remember the same rules for positive and negative, but also multiply the numbers together:

(When there is a number outside and inside a parentheses, multiply them.)

2(5)=10, CORRECT!    2+(5) is not 2 times 5.  It's whatever is closest to the parentheses, in this case being the positive sign.  So + and 5 is just 5!

IMPORTANT!

-2(-5)= - and - is positive, so positive (2 times 5).  Positive 10.

-2(+5)= - and + is negative, so negative (2 times 5). Negative 10.

+2(+5)= + and + is positive, so positive (2 times 5).  Positive 10.
