The width of a rectangle is 2 cm less than its length. The perimeter is 52 cm. The length is:
14 cm.
12 cm.
9 cm.
None of these choices are correct.
Answer: 14 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Rectangle:
Length = xWidth = x - 2x + x + (x - 2) + (x - 2) = 52
2x + 2(x - 2) = 52
2x + 2x - 4 = 52
4x = 52 + 4
4x = 56
x = 14

The sum of the base and height of a triangle is 14 cm. Which of the following equations could be used to find the maximum area of the triangle?
A) A = 0.5x^2 - 15x
B) A = -0.5x^2 + 7x
C) A = -x^2 + 10x
D) A = x^2 - 10x
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the base of the triangle be b and the height be h.
The sum of the base and height is 14. Thus:
[tex]b+h=14[/tex]
Recall that the area of a triangle is given by:
[tex]\displaystyle A=\frac{1}{2}bh[/tex]
From the first equation, solve for either variable:
[tex]h=14-b[/tex]
Substitute:
[tex]\displaystyle A=\frac{1}{2}b(14-b)[/tex]
Distribute:
[tex]\displaystyle A=\frac{1}{2}(14b-b^2)[/tex]
Distribute:
[tex]\displaystyle A=-0.5b^2+7b[/tex]
Let b = x. Hence:
[tex]A=-0.5x^2+7x[/tex]
Therefore, our answer is B.
Solve the rational equation x+3/3x-2-x-3/3x+2=44/9x^2-4
Answer:
[tex]x=2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
When given the following equation;
[tex]\frac{x+3}{3x-2}-\frac{x-3}{3x+2}=\frac{44}{9x^2-4}[/tex]
One has to solve for the variable (x). Remember, when working with fractions, one must have a common denominator in order to perform operations. Since the denominators on the left side of the equation are unlike, one must change them so that they are like denominators. Multiply each fraction by the other fraction's denominator on the respective side. Remember to multiply both the numerator and denominator by the value to ensure that the equation remains true.
[tex]=\frac{x+3}{3x-2}*(\frac{3x+2}{3x+2})-\frac{x-3}{3x+2}*(\frac{3x-2}{3x-2})=\frac{44}{9x^2-4}[/tex]
Simplify,
[tex]=\frac{(x+3)(3x+2)}{(3x-2)(3x+2)}-\frac{(x-3)(3x-2)}{(3x+2)(3x-2)}=\frac{44}{9x^2-4}\\\\=\frac{3x^2+11x+6}{9x^2-4}-\frac{3x^2-11x+6}{9x^2-4}=\frac{44}{9x^2-4}[/tex]
Distribute the negative sign to simplify the left side of the equation;
[tex]=\frac{3x^2+11x+6}{9x^2-4}-\frac{3x^2-11x+6}{9x^2-4}=\frac{44}{9x^2-4}\\\\=\frac{3x^2+11x+6-(3x^2-11x+6)}{9x^2-4}=\frac{44}{9x^2-4}\\\\=\frac{3x^2+11x+6-3x^2+11x-6}{9x^2-4}=\frac{44}{9x^2-4}\\\\=\frac{22x}{9x^2-4}{=\frac{44}{9x^2-4}[/tex]
Since the denominators on opposite sides of the equation are like, one can now ignore the denominators,
[tex]=22x=44[/tex]
Inverse operations,
[tex]=22x=44[/tex]
÷[tex]2[/tex] ÷[tex]2[/tex]
[tex]x=2[/tex]
Tickets numbered 1 to 20 are mixed up and then a ticket is drawn at random. What is the probability that the ticket drawn has a number which is a multiple of 5?
Answer:
1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability calculates the likelihood of an event occurring. The likelihood of the event occurring lies between 0 and 1. It is zero if the event does not occur and 1 if the event occurs.
For example, the probability that it would rain on Friday is between o and 1. If it rains, a value of one is attached to the event. If it doesn't a value of zero is attached to the event.
probability that the ticket drawn has a number which is a multiple of 5 =
Number of tickets that are a multiple of 5 / total number of tickets
Multiple of 5 = 5, 10, 15, 20
there would be 4 tickets that would be a multiple of 5
= 4/20
To transform to the simplest form. divide both the numerator and the denominator by 4
= 1/5
A jar contains 4 pieces of gum, 7 pieces of candy, and 3 pieces of mint. Each time you draw out an item, you record the outcome and put the item back in the jar before making another draw. What is the probability that you get exactly the following sequence: candy—mintmcandy, in that order?
(a) 0.0300.
(b) 0.0530.
(c) 0.1607.
(d) 1.2143.
Answer:
The correct answer is B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a jar contains 4 pieces of gum, 7 pieces of candy, and 3 pieces of mint, and each time you draw out an item, you record the outcome and put the item back in the jar before making another draw, to determine what is the probability that you get exactly the sequence candy-mint-candy, in that order, the following calculation should be performed:
4 + 7 + 3 = 14
7/14 x 3/14 x 7/14 = X
0.5 x 0.2142 x 0.5 = X
0.053 = X
Therefore, the probability that the chosen sequence will be obtained is 0.0530, or 5.3%.

the answer: $32,776 / $38,821 / leah
Answer:
After 10 years, Julie's account balance will be $ 363.88 and Leah's account balance will be $ 411.75, thus Leah will have more money in her account.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Julie invests $ 200 per month in an account that earns 6% interest per year, compounded monthly, and Leah invests $ 250 per month in an account that earns 5% interest per year, compounded monthly, to determine the amount of each after 10 years, the following calculations must be performed:
200 x (1 + 0.06 / 12) ^ 10x12 = X
200 x 1.005 ^ 120 = X
200 x 1.8193 = X
363.88 = X
250 x (1 + 0.05 / 12) ^ 10x12 = X
250 x 1.00416 ^ 120 = X
250 x 1.647 = X
411.75 = X
Therefore, after 10 years, Julie's account balance will be $ 363.88 and Leah's account balance will be $ 411.75, thus Leah will have more money in her account.

A. (5, 2)
B. (2, 5)
C. (3, 4)
D. (4, 3)
Answer:
A. (5, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]\begin{cases}x+y=7,\\2x+3y=16\end{cases}[/tex],
Multiply the first equation by 2, then subtract both equations to get rid of any terms with [tex]x[/tex]:
[tex]\begin{cases}2(x+y)=2(7),\\2x+3y=16\end{cases}\\\implies 2x+2y=14,\\2x+3y=16,\\2x-2x+2y-3y=14-16,\\-y=-2,\\y=\boxed{2}[/tex]
Substitute [tex]y=2[/tex] into any equation to solve for [tex]x[/tex]:
[tex]x+y=7,\\x+2=7,\\x=7-2=\boxed{5}[/tex]
Since coordinates are written as (x, y), the solution to this system of equations is (5, 2).
Answer:
A. ( 5 , 2 )
Step-by-step explanation:
solve by elimination methodIn order to solve by elimination, coefficients of one of the variables must be the same in both equations so that the variable will cancel out when one equation is subtracted from the other.
x + y = 7, 2x + 3y = 16To make x and 2x equal, multiply all terms on each side of the first equation by 2 and all terms on each side of the second by 1.
2x + 2y = 2 × 7, 2x + 3y = 16Simplify.
2x + 2y = 14, 2x+3y=16Subtract 2x+3y=16 from 2x+2y=14 by subtracting like terms on each side of the equal sign.
2x - 2x + 2y - 3y = 14 - 16Add 2x to -2x. Terms 2x and -2x cancel out, leaving an equation with only one variable that can be solved.
2y - 3y = 14 - 16Add 2y to -3y.
-y = 14 - 16Add 14 to -16.
-y = -2Divide both sides by -1.
y = 2Substitute 2 for y in 2x+3y=16. Because the resulting equation contains only one variable, you can solve for x directly.
2x + 3 × 2 = 16Multiply 3 and 2
2x + 6 = 16Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation.
2x = 10Divide both sides by 2.
x = 10The system is now solved.

A cell site is a site where electronic communications equipment is placed in a cellular network for the use of mobile phones. The numbers y of cell sites from 1985 through 2011 can be modeled byy = 269573/1+985e^-0.308t where t represents the year, with t = 5 corresponding to 1985. Use the model to find the numbers of cell sites in the years 1998, 2003, and 2006.
Answer:
(a) 3178
(b) 14231
(c) 33152
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]y = \frac{269573}{1+985e^{-0.308t}}[/tex]
Solving (a): Year = 1998
1998 means t = 8 i.e. 1998 - 1990
So:
[tex]y = \frac{269573}{1+985e^{-0.308*8}}[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{269573}{1+985e^{-2.464}}[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{269573}{1+985*0.08509}[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{269573}{84.81365}[/tex]
[tex]y = 3178[/tex] --- approximated
Solving (b): Year = 2003
2003 means t = 13 i.e. 2003 - 1990
So:
[tex]y = \frac{269573}{1+985e^{-0.308*13}}[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{269573}{1+985e^{-4.004}}[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{269573}{1+985*0.01824}[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{269573}{18.9664}[/tex]
[tex]y = 14213[/tex] --- approximated
Solving (c): Year = 2006
2006 means t = 16 i.e. 2006 - 1990
So:
[tex]y = \frac{269573}{1+985e^{-0.308*16}}[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{269573}{1+985e^{-4.928}}[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{269573}{1+985*0.00724}[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{269573}{8.1314}[/tex]
[tex]y = 33152[/tex] --- approximated

STEP 1: Find the unknown side lengths.
To find the lengths of the sides not labeled, you have to use the lengths of the sides we already know.
The length of one parallel side is 5, and the length of another parallel side is 2. The length of the unknown side starts at the same place as the top of the side length that is 5, and ends at the top of the side length that is 2. This means that we have to subtract 2 from 5 in order to find the unknown side length.
STEP 2: Add up all the side lengths
P = 2 + 5 + 5 + 2 + 3 + 3
P = 20 ft

Mis directly proportional to r?
When r= 2, M= 14
a) Work out the value of M when r= 12.
b) Work out the value of r when M = 224.
Answer:
M = 84 , r = 32
Step-by-step explanation:
Given M is directly proportional to r then the equation relating them is
M = kr ← k is the constant of proportion
To find k use the condition when r = 2, M = 14 , then
14 = 2k ( divide both sides by 2 )
7 = k
M = 7r ← equation of proportion
(a)
When r = 12
M = 7 × 12 = 84
(b)
When M = 224 , then
224 = 7r ( divide both sides by 7 )
32 = r

The light from a lamp creates a shadow on a wall with a hyperbolic border. Find the equation of the border if the distance between the vertices is inches and the foci are inches from the vertices. Assume the center of the hyperbola is at the origin.
The equation of the hyperbola is,
(x/12)² - 4y²/(527) = 1
The standard equation of the hyperbola is
(x/a)² - (y/b)² = 1
Here (a, 0) and (-a, 0) are vertices and asymptotes y = ± √(b/a)x
Foci are (c, 0) & (-c, 0)
Then a² + b² = c²
Here we have to give that.,
2a = 24
a = 12
And 2c = 7
c = 7/2
Therefore a = 12 and c = 3.5
Substituting a and c in Pythagorean identity;
b² = 527/4
Then, the equation of the hyperbola is
(x/12)² - 4y²/(527) = 1

We have b = 0, which implies that the foci coincide with the vertices, making the hyperbola a degenerate case. In this scenario, the equation of the border would be a vertical line passing through the vertices/foci, given by the equation x = ±a.
To find the equation of the hyperbolic border created by the shadow on the wall, we can start by understanding the properties of a hyperbola. A hyperbola is defined as the set of all points such that the difference of the distances from any point on the hyperbola to two fixed points, called the foci, is constant.
Let's label the vertices of the hyperbola as A and B, and the foci as F1 and F2. The distance between the vertices is given as 2a inches, and the foci are located at a distance c inches from the vertices.
Using the given information, we can find the value of a and c. Since the center of the hyperbola is at the origin, the coordinates of the vertices are (±a, 0), and the coordinates of the foci are (±c, 0).
The distance between the foci is given by the equation:
c = √(a^2 + b^2)
We know that the distance between the foci is given as 2c inches, so:
2c = 2√(a^2 + b^2)
Since c is given as a distance from the vertices, we can substitute c = a - b to simplify the equation:
2(a - b) = 2√(a^2 + b^2)
Squaring both sides to eliminate the square root:
4(a - b)^2 = 4(a^2 + b^2)
Expanding the equation:
4(a^2 - 2ab + b^2) = 4a^2 + 4b^2
Simplifying the equation:
4a^2 - 8ab + 4b^2 = 4a^2 + 4b^2
Canceling out the common terms:
-8ab = 0
Dividing by -8:
ab = 0
This implies that either a = 0 or b = 0. However, since a represents the distance between the vertices and b represents the distance between the foci and vertices, we can rule out a = 0 as it would result in a degenerate hyperbola.

The following measurements (in picocuries per liter) were recorded by a set of argon gas detectors installed in a research facility:
381.3,394.8,396.1,380
Using these measurements, construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean level of argon gas present in the facility. Assume the population is approximately normal.
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval for the mean level of argon gas present in the facility is (374.4, 401.7).
Step-by-step explanation:
Before building the confidence interval, we have to find the sample mean and the sample standard deviation.
Sample mean:
[tex]\overline{x} = \frac{381.3+394.8+396.1+380}{4} = 388.05[/tex]
Sample standard deviation:
[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{(381.3-388.05)^2+(394.8-388.05)^2+(396.1-388.05)^2+(380-388.05)^2}{3}} = 8.58[/tex]
Confidence interval:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, so the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 4 - 1 = 3
95% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 3 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 3.1824
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 3.1824\frac{8.58}{\sqrt{4}} = 13.65[/tex]
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 388.05 - 13.65 = 374.4
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 388.05 + 13.65 = 401.7
The 95% confidence interval for the mean level of argon gas present in the facility is (374.4, 401.7).

Julie and Mona know that that Earth’s average distance from the Sun is approximately 93 million miles and it takes 1 year to complete an orbit of the Sun. A new asteroid has been discovered orbiting the Sun at an average distance of 1,488 million miles. How long will it take for the asteroid, in Earth years, to complete one orbit of the Sun.
Answer:
16 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Earth's distance from sun = 93 million miles
Number of years to complete an orbit = 1 year
Average orbiting distance of new asteroid = 1488 million miles
Number of years to complete an orbit = x
93,000,000 Miles = 1
1488000000 miles = x
Cross multiply :
93000000x = 1488000000
x = 1488000000 / 93000000
x = 16 years
Period taken to orbit the sun = 16 years
Answer: 64 Earth years...
