Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C) [tex] 6.495\: ft^2 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 7 ft, b = 3 ft, c = 5 ft (Given)

Therefore, a + b + c = 7 + 3 + 5 = 15 ft

Let's calculate semi Perimeter of the triangle which is given by s

[tex] s =\frac{a+b+c}{2}=\frac{15}{2} = 7.5 \: ft[/tex]

Now, by Heron's formula, area of triangle ABC is given as:

[tex] A(\triangle ABC) =\sqrt{s(s-a) (s-b)(s-c)} [/tex]

[tex]\therefore A(\triangle ABC) =\sqrt{7.5(7.5-7) (7.5-3)(7.5-5)} [/tex]

[tex]\therefore A(\triangle ABC) =\sqrt{7.5(0.5) (4.5)(2.5)} [/tex]

[tex]\therefore A(\triangle ABC) =\sqrt{42.1875} [/tex]

[tex]\therefore A(\triangle ABC) =6.49519053 [/tex]

[tex]\therefore A(\triangle ABC) =6.495\: ft^2 [/tex]

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

[tex]\tan(\alpha)*\cot^2(\alpha)\\\\[/tex]

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

Explanation:

Recall that [tex]\tan(x) = \frac{\sin(x)}{\cos(x)}[/tex] and [tex]\cot(x) = \frac{\cos(x)}{\sin(x)}[/tex]. The connection between tangent and cotangent is simply involving the reciprocal

From this, we can say,

[tex]\tan(\alpha)*\cot^2(\alpha)\\\\\\\frac{\sin(\alpha)}{\cos(\alpha)}*\left(\frac{\cos(\alpha)}{\sin(\alpha)}\right)^2\\\\\\\frac{\sin(\alpha)}{\cos(\alpha)}*\frac{\cos^2(\alpha)}{\sin^2(\alpha)}\\\\\\\frac{\sin(\alpha)*\cos^2(\alpha)}{\cos(\alpha)*\sin^2(\alpha)}\\\\\\\frac{\cos^2(\alpha)}{\cos(\alpha)*\sin(\alpha)}\\\\\\\frac{\cos(\alpha)}{\sin(\alpha)}\\\\[/tex]

In the second to last step, a pair of sine terms cancel. In the last step, a pair of cosine terms cancel.

All of this shows why [tex]\tan(\alpha)*\cot^2(\alpha)\\\\[/tex] is identical to [tex]\frac{\cos(\alpha)}{\sin(\alpha)}\\\\[/tex]

Therefore, [tex]\tan(\alpha)*\cot^2(\alpha)=\frac{\cos(\alpha)}{\sin(\alpha)}\\\\[/tex] is an identity. In mathematics, an identity is when both sides are the same thing for any allowed input in the domain.

You can visually confirm that [tex]\tan(\alpha)*\cot^2(\alpha)\\\\[/tex] is the same as [tex]\frac{\cos(\alpha)}{\sin(\alpha)}\\\\[/tex] by graphing each function (use x instead of alpha). You should note that both curves use the exact same set of points to form them. In other words, one curve is perfectly on top of the other. I recommend making the curves different colors so you can distinguish them a bit better.

Answers

Answer:

48 minutes

240 at 60mph = 4 hrs.

240 at 50 mph = 4.8 hrs.

it would take an extra 60*.8 or 48 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The trip will be of 48 minutes longer when the speed is decreased by 10 miles per hour.

What is the formula for time?

The time is given by distance/speed. The unit of time is minutes or seconds.

What will be the time difference?

When distance of 240 miles is cover by the speed of 60 miles per hour then the time take to travel this distance will be 240/60=4 hours

When distance of 240 miles is cover by the speed of 50 miles per hour then the time take to travel this distance will be 240/50=4.8 hours

The difference between 4.8 hours and 4 hours is of 0.8 hours or 0.8*60=48 minutes.

Therefore, the trip will be of 48 minutes longer.

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.

What is the shaded area of the figure?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The idea here is to find the area of the circle and then subtract from it the area of the triangle. That will give you the area of what's left in the circle (the shaded part). The area of a circle is:

[tex]A_c=\pi r^2[/tex] so

[tex]A_c=(3.14)(12.4)^2[/tex]   where 12.4 is the radius.

[tex]A_c=482.81[/tex] rounded to the nearest tenth. I used 3.14 for pi.

Now for the area of the triangle. The formula is

[tex]A_t=\frac{1}{2}bh[/tex] where h is the height of 12.4 and the base is the diameter which is 12.4 * 2 = 24.8

[tex]A_t=\frac{1}{2}(24.8)(12.4)[/tex] so

[tex]A_t=153.76[/tex]

Now subtract the triangle's area from the circle's area:

482.81 - 153.76 = 329.05 mm²
