If MQ = 9, NP = 27, and LQ = 15, calculate the length of LP. Assume ΔLMQ ~ ΔLNP. Image not set to scale.

Answer:

(1) B

(2) D

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)

Let the quadratic function be:

[tex]y = ax^{2} + bx + c[/tex]

For the point, (0,-1),

[tex]y = ax^{2} + bx + c[/tex]

[tex]-1=(a\times0)+(b\times0}+c\\-1=c\\c=-1[/tex]

Then the equation is:

[tex]y = ax^{2} + bx -1[/tex]

For the point (-1, -8) ,

[tex]y = ax^{2} + bx -1[/tex]

[tex]-8=(a\times (-1)^{2})+(b\times -1)-1\\-8=a-b-1\\a-b=-7...(i)[/tex]

For the point (1, 2) ,

[tex]y = ax^{2} + bx -1[/tex]

[tex]2=(a\times (1)^{2})+(b\times 1)-1\\2=a+b-1\\a+b=3...(ii)[/tex]

Add the two equations and solve for a as follows:

[tex]a-b=-7\\a+b=3\\\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\\2a = -4\\a = -2[/tex]

Substitute a = -2 in (i) and solve for b as follows:

[tex]a-b=-7\\-2-b=-7\\b=5[/tex]

Thus, the quadratic function is:

[tex]f(x)=-2x^{2}+5x-1[/tex]

The correct option is (b).

(2)

The ordered pairs are:

(5, 7), (7, 11), (9, 14), (11, 18)

Represent them in an XY table as follows:

X : 5 | 7 | 9 | 11

Y : 7 | 11 | 14 | 18

Compute the difference between the Y values as follows:

Diff = 11 - 7 = 4

Diff = 14 - 11 = 3

Diff = 18 - 14 = 4

Now compute the difference between the Diff values:

d = 3 - 4 = -1

d = 4 - 3 = 1

Since the differences between the differences of the y-values is not consistent, the ordered pairs do not represent a quadratic equation.

The correct option is D.

Answer:

Hey There!! The Correct answer is: The equation is w = 241(1.06)t

And here variable t represents the number of years since 2000.

In 2001 means t=2001 -2000 = 1

So we plug 1 for t in the given expression , that is w = 241(1.06)1 = 241 * 1.06 = 255.46

Therefore in 2001, it should be worth to 255.46.

And in the given expression 1.06=1 +0.06, where 0.06 is the annual percent of growth that is 6 % .

The projected annual percent of growth is 10% and the company worth in 2011 will be $587.74 millions. Then the correct option is C.

Consider the function:

y = a (1 ± r) ˣ

Where x is the number of times this growth/decay occurs, a = initial amount, and r = fraction by which this growth/decay occurs.

If there is a plus sign, then there is exponential growth happening by r fraction or 100r %.

If there is a minus sign, then there is exponential decay happening by r fraction or 100r %.

The projected worth (in millions of dollars) of a large company is modeled by the equation is given as,

[tex]\rm w = 206\times (1.10)^t\\\\w = 206\times (1+0.10)^t[/tex]

Then the projected annual percent of growth is 10%.

The variable t represents the number of years since 2000.

Then the company worth in 2011 will be

w = 206 × 1.1¹¹

w = $587.74 millions

The projected annual percent of growth is 10% and the company worth in 2011 will be $587.74 millions.

Then the correct option is C.

Greetings from Brasil...

Its attached the diagram of the situation.....

The ground is 8 feet from the bottom edge of the window

We start by representing the building, the ladder and the ground in a sketch.

See attachment for diagram

From the diagram, the distance (d) from ground to the bottom edge of the window is calculated using Pythagoras theorem:

10^2 = d^2 + 6^2

Evaluate the squares

100 = d^2 + 36

Evaluate the like terms

d^2 = 64

Take the square root of both sides

d = 8

Answer:

The next three terms are 1.8, 2.0, and 2.2.

Step-by-step explanation: We can subtract a number of the sequence minus the number right before that number. For example, 1-0.8=0.2 and 1.4-1.2=0.2. So, we have to add 0.2 from 1.6 to find the next term which is 1.8, then add 1.8+0.2 to get 2 as the number after that, then add 2+0.2=2.2 to get the final number. Som your answer is 1.8,2.0,2.2.

Answer:

C.) 4(750c-700t) ; D.) 2800t - 3000c

Step-by-step explanation:

Time taken :

Tatenda = t sec/m^2

Ciara = c sec/m^2

Tatenda = 700m^2 per week

Ciara = 750m^2 per week

Which expressions can we use to describe how many more seconds Tatenda spends than Ciara spends mowing lawns during 4

Total Time taken over four weeks :

Tatenda = 4(t * 700) = 4(700c)

Ciara = 4(c * 750) = 4(750c )

Number of seconds Tatenda spends more than Ciara : meaning Tatenda spends more seconds than

Tatenda - Ciara

4(700t) - 4(750c) = 4(700t - 750c)

4(700t - 750c)

Or

4(700t - 750c) = 2800t - 3000c

2800t - 3000c

Answer: g(x) f(x) h(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

The order of the three functions in order from the fastest decreasing average rate of change to the slowest decreasing average rate of change on the interval [0, 3] is is g(x) >f(x) > h(x)

A function from a set X to a set Y assigns to each element of X exactly one element of Y.

A function whose value is a constant raised to the power of the argument, especially the function where the constant is e.

It is a measure of how much the function changed per unit, on average, over that interval.

Given,

[tex]f(x) = 16(\frac{1}{2})^{x}[/tex]

interval = [0,3]

[tex]f(0)= 16(\frac{1}{2})^{0} =16 \\f(3)= 16(\frac{1}{2})^{3} =2[/tex]

Average rate of change = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

Average rate of change= [tex]\frac{2-16}{3-0}=-4.67[/tex]

Consider the function g(x)

g(0)=21

g(3)=1

Average rate of change = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

Average rate of change =[tex]\frac{1-27}{3-0}=-8.67[/tex]

Consider the exponential function

at x=0 the exponential function h =4

at x=0 the exponential function h =-3

Average rate of change = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

Average rate of change =[tex]\frac{-3-4}{3-0}=-2.33[/tex]

Hence, the order of the three functions in order from the fastest decreasing average rate of change to the slowest decreasing average rate of change on the interval [0, 3] is g(x) >f(x) > h(x)

Answer:

This is poorly written, so i will answer it as it was:

"Let f (x) = |2). Write a function g(x) whose graph is a vertical shrink by a factor of  A, followed by a translation 2 units up of the graph of f."

I don't really know what you do mean by I2), so i will answer it in a general way.

First, we do a vertical shrink of factor A.

A must be a number smaller than one and larger than zero., then if g(x) is a vertical shrink of factor A of the graph of f(x), we have that:

g(x) = A*f(x)

As 0 < A < 1

We will have that the graph of g(x) is a vertical compression of the graph of f(x)

Now we do a vertical shift of 2 units up.

A general vertical shift of N units up is written as:

g(x) = f(x) + N

Where N is a positive number.

So in our case, we have:

g(x) = A*f(x) + 2.

Where you will need to replace the values of A and f(x) depending on what the actual question says,

Answer:

1232.000

Step-by-step explanation:

Estimated distance across the river=1,232 meters

Find the approximate distance across the river to

the nearest thousandth of a meter

Note: Thousandth is having 3 values after the decimal point

This means we will round 1,232 meters to the nearest thousandth

1,232 is an whole number and decimal point can only be added at the end like this 1,232.

So we need 3 values after the decimal point.

We must add only values that wouldn't change the original 1,232 meters.

Therefore, zero (0) will be added

1232.000

Is to the nearest thousandth

Answer:

The number of measles vaccines that Dr. Potter give than polio vaccines is 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are;

The number of doses given in a polio vaccine = 6 doses

The number of doses given in a measles vaccine = 3 doses

The number of vaccinations given by Dr. Potter last year = 60 vaccinations

The number of doses given in the 60 vaccinations = 225 doses

Let the number of polio vaccine given last year by Dr. Potter = x

Let the number of measles vaccine given last year by Dr. Potter = y

Therefore, we have;

6 × x + 3 × y = 225.......................(1)

x + y = 60.......................................(2)

From equation (2), we have;

x = 60 - y

Substituting the derived value for x in equation (1), we get;

6 × x + 3 × y = 225

6 × (60 - y) + 3 × y = 225

360 - 6·y + 3·y = 225

360 - 225 = 6·y - 3·y

135 = 3·y

y = 45

x = 60 - y = 60 - 45 = 15

Therefore;

The number of polio vaccine given last year by Dr. Potter = 15

The number of measles vaccine given last year by Dr. Potter = 45

The number of measles vaccines that Dr. Potter give than polio vaccines = 45 - 15 = 30 vaccines.

The number of measles vaccines that Dr. Potter give than polio vaccines =  30 vaccines.

[tex](- \infty, 2), (2, \infty)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function:

[tex]f(x) = \dfrac{x+1}{x-2}[/tex]

To find:

Domain of the function.

Solution:

First of all, let us learn about definition of  domain of a function.

Domain of a function is the valid input values that can be provided to the function for which output is defined.

OR

Domain of a function [tex]f(x)[/tex] are the values of [tex]x[/tex] for which the output [tex]f(x)[/tex] is a valid value.

i.e. The function does not tend to [tex]\infty[/tex] or does not have [tex]\frac{0}0[/tex] form.

So, we will check for the values of [tex]x[/tex] for which [tex]f(x)[/tex] is not defined.

For value to tend to [tex]\infty[/tex], denominator will be 0.

[tex]x-2\neq 0 \\\Rightarrow x \neq 2[/tex]

So, the domain can not have x = 2

Any other value of x does not have any undefined value for the function [tex]f(x)[/tex].

Hence, the answer is:

[tex]\bold{(- \infty, 2), (2, \infty)}[/tex]     [2 is not included in the domain].

Answer:

24 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle can be found using the following formula.

[tex]a=\pi r^2[/tex]

We know that the area is 144pi m^2.

[tex]a= 144\pi m^2[/tex]

Substitute 144pi m^2 in for a.

[tex]144\pi m^2= \pi r^2[/tex]

We want to find the diameter. First, we must find the radius. We have to get the variable, r,  by itself.

Divide both sides of the equation by pi.

[tex]144\pi m^2/ \pi = \pi r^2 / \pi[/tex]

[tex]144\pi m^2/ \pi = r^2[/tex]

[tex]144 m^2= r^2[/tex]

The variable, r , is being squared. The inverse of a square is the square root. Take the square root of both sides of the equation.

[tex]\sqrt{144 m^2} =\sqrt{r^2}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{144 m^2} =r[/tex]

[tex]12 m= r[/tex]

The radius of the circle is 12 meters, but the question asks for diameter. The diameter is twice the radius.

[tex]d= r*2[/tex]

The radius is 12 m.

[tex]d= 12 m*2[/tex]

Multiply

[tex]d= 24 m[/tex]

The diameter of the circle is 24 meters.

Answer:

This is because there are equal counts of both even and odd numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we are concerned with stating the reason why it is likely that a standard number cube have the same probability for showing an even number as well as an odd number.

In the number cube, the odd numbers are 1,3 and 5. While the even numbers are 2,4 and 6.

From here, we can see that there are three set of each number types. What this automatically means is that the probability of selecting an even number will be equal to the probability of selecting an odd number. Thus, we can say that it is just as likely that the cube will show an even number as an odd number because each of the type of numbers have 3 values each.

D. sum of these edges is increased by 24 inches -- True

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a cube and its edge is increased by 2 inches.

To study the effect of this increase in the Volume, area of each face, diagonal and sum of edges.

Solution:

Let the side of original cube = a inches.

Formula for volume of cube:

[tex]V =side^3 = a^3[/tex]

If the side is increased by 2 inches, the side becomes (a+2) inches.

So, new volume, [tex]V' = (a+2)^3[/tex]

Using the formula:

[tex](x+y)^3 =x^3+y^3+3xy(x+y)[/tex]

[tex]V' = (a+2)^3 = a^3+8+3\times 2 \times a(a+2)=a^3+8+6a(a+2)[/tex]

So, [tex]V' = V + 8+6a(a+2)[/tex]

Volume increased by 8+6a(a+2) [which is not equal to 8]

So, statement is false:

A. volume is increased by 8 cubic inches  -- False

Each face in a cube is a square.

Area of each face, A = [tex]side^2 = a^2[/tex]

New area, A' = [tex](a+2)^2[/tex]

Using the formula: [tex](x+y)^2 =x^2+y^2+2xy[/tex]

[tex]A' = a^2+4+4a[/tex]

Area increased by 4+4a [which is not equal to 4 sq inches]

B. area of each face is increased by 4 square inches -- False

Diagonal of each face = [tex]a\sqrt2[/tex]

Increase of 2 in the edge:

New diagonal = [tex](a+2)\sqrt2 = a\sqrt2+2\sqrt2[/tex]

So, increase of [tex]2\sqrt2[/tex] not 2.

C. diagonals of each face is increased by 2 inches -- False

There are 12 number of edges in a square.

So sum of all 12 edges  = 12a

When edge is increased by 2, sum of all edges = 12(a+2) = 12a + 24

An increase of 24.

D. sum of these edges is increased by 24 inches -- True

Step-by-step explanation:

The null and alternate hypothesis are established terms that are used in statistics. Note that the Null hypothesis often represents the expected outcome, as in this example that– "There is no difference in the average start-up costs of the 4 different types of shops".

Meanwhile, the Alternative hypothesis tells the opposite of expected outcome– "There is a difference in the average start-up costs of the shops working statement".

Thus, the forcus of the research would be to prove whether the null hypothesis is true or false. If it is true, then we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
