[tex] \frac{1}{2} log_{2}(m) - 3 log_{2}(n) + 2 log(q) [/tex]

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:  [tex]\log_{2}\left(\frac{q^2\sqrt{m}}{n^3}\right)[/tex]

We have something in the form log(x/y) where x = q^2*sqrt(m) and y = n^3. The log is base 2.

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

Explanation:

It seems strange how the first two logs you wrote are base 2, but the third one is not. I'll assume that you meant to say it's also base 2. Because base 2 is fundamental to computing, logs of this nature are often referred to as binary logarithms.

I'm going to use these three log rules, which apply to any base.

log(A) + log(B) = log(A*B)log(A) - log(B) = log(A/B)B*log(A) = log(A^B)

From there, we can then say the following:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}\log_{2}\left(m\right)-3\log_{2}\left(n\right)+2\log_{2}\left(q\right)\\\\\log_{2}\left(m^{1/2}\right)-\log_{2}\left(n^3\right)+\log_{2}\left(q^2\right) \ \text{ .... use log rule 3}\\\\\log_{2}\left(\sqrt{m}\right)+\log_{2}\left(q^2\right)-\log_{2}\left(n^3\right)\\\\\log_{2}\left(\sqrt{m}*q^2\right)-\log_{2}\left(n^3\right) \ \text{ .... use log rule 1}\\\\\log_{2}\left(\frac{q^2\sqrt{m}}{n^3}\right) \ \text{ .... use log rule 2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

find the slope of the tangent line of the curve r = cos (3theta) at theta = pi / 3

Answers

The slope of the tangent line to the curve at a point (x, y) is dy/dx. By the chain rule, this is equivalent to

dy/dθ × dθ/dx = (dy/dθ) / (dx/dθ)

where y = r(θ) sin(θ) and x = r(θ) cos(θ). Then

dy/dθ = dr/dθ sin(θ) + r(θ) cos(θ)

dx/dθ = dr/dθ cos(θ) - r(θ) sin(θ)

Given r(θ) = cos(3θ), we have

dr/dθ = -3 sin(3θ)

and so

dy/dx = (-3 sin(3θ) sin(θ) + cos(3θ) cos(θ)) / (-3 sin(3θ) cos(θ) - cos(3θ) sin(θ))

When θ = π/3, we end up with a slope of

dy/dx = (-3 sin(π) sin(π/3) + cos(π) cos(π/3)) / (-3 sin(π) cos(π/3) - cos(π) sin(π/3))

dy/dx = -cos(π/3) / sin(π/3)

dy/dx = -cot(π/3) = -1/√3

Classify the polygon as regular or irregular, and concave or convex.

Answers

Answer:

This would be a regular polygon.

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular polygon has congruent sides and interior angles.

An irregular polygon does not have congruent sides and all interior angles.

A convex polygon does not have a interior angle greater than 180°.

Lastly, a concave polygon has only one interior angle greater than 180°.

Using the process of elimination, it would not be a convex or concave polygon. Now we have either a regular or irregular polygon. This polygon can not be a irregular polygon because all the sides are congruent. This means that this polygon is a regular polygon!

The given polygon is a regular convex polygon.

What is a polygon ?

In geometry, a polygon is a plane figure that is described by a finite number of straight line segments connected to form a closed polygonal chain (or polygonal circuit). The bounded plane region, the bounding circuit, or the two together, may be called a polygon.

The segments of a polygonal circuit are called its edges or sides. The points where two edges meet are the polygon's vertices or corners. The interior of a solid polygon is sometimes called its body.

Given,

Polygon has 8 edges and 8 vertices.

1. Regular or Irregular:

A regular polygon has congruent sides and interior angles.

In the figure all sides are of equal length and the angle are same so, It is a regular polygon.

2. Convex or concave:

Convex polygon has all interior angles less than 180° while in concave polygon at least one interior angle should be greater than 180°.

In the given polygon all angles are less than 180°, so it is a convex polygon.

Hence, by the above explanation, the given polygon is regular convex polygon.

Alex wants to test the reliability of “lie detector tests,” or polygraph tests. He performs a polygraph test on a random sample of 12 individuals. If there is more than a 50% chance that the tests result in no false positives (that is, the test does not result in a true statement being recorded as a lie), Alex will conclude that the tests are reliable. If the probability of a lie detector test resulting in a false positive is 5.5%, what will Alex conclude? Use Excel to find the probability, rounding to three decimal places.

Answers

The correct statement is test is reliable and authentic as the probability of no false positives is more than 0.5

Given that

[tex]H_o:P= 0.50\\\\H_1:P>0.50[/tex]

Now following calculations to be done to reach the conclusion:

There is no false positive as

= 100 - 5.5

= 94.5%

[tex]\hat P =0.945, n = 12[/tex]

Now

[tex]z = \frac{\hat P - P}{\sqrt\frac{P(1-P)}{n} }\\\\=\frac{0.945-0.5}{\sqrt\frac{0.5\times0.5}{12} } \\\\= 3.08[/tex]

So

P value = P(z >3.08) = 0.0010

Therefore we can conclude that test is reliable and authentic as the probability of no false positives is more than 0.5

what is the answer to this
3x-y=7
2x-2y=2 ​

Answers

Answer:

x = 3

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - y = 7   ------------(i)

2x - 2y = 2 ---------(ii)

Multiply equation (i) by (-2)

(i)*(-2)          - 6x + 2y = -14

(ii)                 2x  - 2y =2     {Add both equation. now y will be eliminated}

                    -4x         = -12          {Divide both sides by -4}

                             x = -12/-4

x = 3

Plug in x = 3 in equation (i)

2*3 - 2y = 2

6 - 2y = 2    

Subtract 6 from both sides

 -2y = 2 - 6

  -2y = -4

Divide both sides by 2

      y = -4/-2

y = 2

Answer:

x = 3, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

3x - y = 7 → (1)

2x - 2y = 2 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by - 2 and adding to (2) will eliminate the y- term

- 6x + 2y = - 14 → (3)

Add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate y

- 4x + 0 = - 12

- 4x = - 12 ( divide both sides by - 4 )

x = 3

Substitute x = 3 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (1)

3(3) - y = 7

9 - y = 7 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

- y = - 2 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

y = 2

solution is (3, 2 )

Calculus!

The volume of a substance, A, measured in cubic centimeters increases according to the exponential growth model dA/dt = 0.3A, where t is measured in hours. The volume of another substance, B, also measured in cubic centimeters increases at a constant rate of 1 cm^3 per hour according to the linear model dB/dt = 1. At t = 0, substance A has a volume A(0) = 3 and substance B has size B(0) = 5. At what time will both substances have the same volume?

Would it be correct to write the growth model of substance B as x + 5? And how could I write the growth model of substance A? Thank you in advance, and sorry for the poor formatting.

Answers

Answer:

The two substances will have the same volume after approximately 3.453 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of substance A (measured in cubic centimeters) increases at a rate represented by the equation:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{dA}{dt} = 0.3 A[/tex]

Where t is measured in hours.

And substance B is represented by the equation:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{dB}{dt} = 1[/tex]

We are also given that at t = 0, A(0) = 3 and B(0) = 5.

And we want to find the time(s) t for which both A and B will have the same volume.  

You are correct in that B(t) is indeed t + 5. The trick here is to multiply both sides by dt. This yields:

[tex]\displaystyle dB = 1 dt[/tex]

Now, we can take the integral of both sides:

[tex]\displaystyle \int 1 \, dB = \int 1 \, dt[/tex]

Integrate. Remember the constant of integration!

[tex]\displaystyle B(t) = t + C[/tex]

Since B(0) = 5:

[tex]\displaystyle B(0) = 5 = (0) + C \Rightarrow C = 5[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]B(t) = t + 5[/tex]

We can apply the same method to substance A. This yields:

[tex]\displaystyle dA = 0.3A \, dt[/tex]

We will have to divide both sides by A:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{A}\, dA = 0.3\, dt[/tex]

Now, we can take the integral of both sides:

[tex]\displaystyle \int \frac{1}{A} \, dA = \int 0.3\, dt[/tex]

Integrate:

[tex]\displaystyle \ln|A| = 0.3 t + C[/tex]

Raise both sides to e:

[tex]\displaystyle e^{\ln |A|} = e^{0.3t + C}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]\displaystyle |A| = e^{0.3t} \cdot e^C = Ce^{0.3t}[/tex]

Note that since C is an arbitrary constant, e raised to C will also be an arbitrary constant.

By definition:

[tex]\displaystyle A(t) = \pm C e^{0.3t} = Ce^{0.3t}[/tex]

Since A(0) = 3:

[tex]\displaystyle A(0) = 3 = Ce^{0.3(0)} \Rightarrow C = 3[/tex]

Therefore, the growth model of substance A is:

[tex]A(t) = 3e^{0.3t}[/tex]

To find the time(s) for which both substances will have the same volume, we can set the two functions equal to each other:

[tex]\displaystyle A(t) = B(t)[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle 3e^{0.3t} = t + 5[/tex]

Using a graphing calculator, we can see that the intersect twice: at t ≈ -4.131 and again at t ≈ 3.453.

Since time cannot be negative, we can ignore the first solution.

In conclusion, the two substances will have the same volume after approximately 3.453 hours.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a system of equations where p is the number of students who passed and f is the number of students who failed:

p + f = 642

p = 5f

Solve by substitution by plugging in 5f as p into the first equation, then solving for f:

p + f = 642

5f + f = 642

6f = 642

f = 107

So, 107 students failed.

Find how many students passed by multiplying this by 5:

107(5)
