Find the area of the shaded regions.
Answer:
7 pi cm^2 or approximately 21.98 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the area of the large circle
A = pi r^2
A = pi 3^2
A = 9 pi
Then find the area of the small unshaded circle
A = pi r^2
A = pi (1)^2
A = pi
There are two of these circles
pi+ pi = 2 pi
Subtract the unshaded circles from the large circle
9pi - 2 pi
7 pi

the height of a triangle is 2 centimetres more than the base. if the height is increased by 2 centimetres while the base remains the same, the new area becomes 82.5 centimetres square. find the base and the height of the original triangle.
Answer:
Base = 11 cm
Height = 13 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that the height of a triangle is 2 centimetres more than the base.
Let x cm be the base of triangle. So height of the triangle is x+2 cm.
It is given that if the height is increased by 2 centimetres while the base remains the same, the new area becomes 82.5 centimetres square.
New height = (x+2)+2 = x+4 cm
Area of a triangle is
[tex]A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times base\times height[/tex]
[tex]82.5=\dfrac{1}{2}\times x\times (x+4)[/tex]
[tex]165=x^2+4x[/tex]
[tex]x^2+4x-165=0[/tex]
Splitting the middle term, we get
[tex]x^2+15x-11x-165=0[/tex]
[tex]x(x+15)-11(x+15)=0[/tex]
[tex](x+15)(x-11)=0[/tex]
Using zero product property, we get
[tex]x=-15,11[/tex]
Base of a triangle can not be negative, therefore x=11.
Base = 11 cm
Height = 11+2 = 13 cm
Therefore, the base of original triangle is 11 cm and height is 13 cm.

in the diagram, POS,QOT and ROU are straight lines. find the value of x.
==========================================
Explanation:
Angle UOT is vertical to the angle x. This angle combines with 4x and 40 to get a straight angle of 180 degrees
(angle POU) + (angle UOT) + (angle TOS) = 180
4x + x + 40 = 180
5x + 40 = 180
5x = 180-40
5x = 140
x = 140/5
x = 28
Side note: if x = 28, then 4x = 4*28 = 112.
We see that 112+28+40 = 180, which is the sum of the three angles mentioned earlier. Since we got 180, this confirms the answer.

which equation represents a circle with the center at two, -8 and a radius of 11
Answer:
( x-2)^2 + ( y +8) ^2 =121
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a circle can be written as
( x-h)^2 + ( y-k) ^2 = r^2
where ( h,k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius
( x-2)^2 + ( y- -8) ^2 = 11^2
( x-2)^2 + ( y +8) ^2 =121
Answer:
(x - 2)² + (y + 8)² = 11²
Step-by-step explanation:
General equation for a circle
( x - h )² + ( y - k )² = r², where (h,k) is the center and r ,radius..
with center ( 2,-8 ) and radius 11
(x - 2)² + (y + 8)² = 11²
A candy box is to be made out of a piece of cardboard that measures 8 by 12 inches. Squares of equal size will be cut out of each corner, and then the ends and sides will be folded up to form a rectangular box. What size square should be cut from each corner to obtain a maximum volume
Answer:
the size of the square to be cut out for maximum volume is 1.5695 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
cardboard that measures 8 by 12 inches.
We need to determine What size square should be cut from each corner
We were given given the size of the cardboard.
let us denote the length of the square as 'x'.
Then our length, width and height will be:
Length = 8 − 2x
Width = 12− 2x
Then our Height = x
So now, the volume= length×width ×height
Volume = (8 − 2x) x (12− 2x) x (x)
After calculating volume comes out to be:
V = (96 − 40x + 4x²) (x)
V = 4x³ − 40x² + 96x
Now, we can use differentiation to equate it to zero.
So differentiate it with respect to x, we get
dV/dx = 12x² − 80x + 96
12x² − 80x + 96 = 0
So, after solving this, x comes out to be:
x = 5.097 and x = 1.5695
Looking at it the size of the square cut out cannot be 5.097 because we cannot cut out of both sides of the width, since the width is 5 inches.
Therefore, the size of the square to be cut out for maximum volume is 1.5695 inches.

Find the slope of a line perpendicular to the line defined by the equation 3x-5y=12
Answer:
-5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Note the slope intercept form: y = mx + b
Note that:
y = (x , y)
m = slope
x = (x , y)
b = y-intercept
Isolate the variable, y. First, Subtract 3x from both sides:
3x (-3x) - 5y = 12 (-3x)
-5y = -3x + 12
Next, divide -5 from both sides. Remember to divide from all terms within the equation:
(-5y)/-5 = (-3x + 12)/-5
y = (-3x/-5) + (-12/5)
Simplify.
y = (3x/5) - 12/5
y = (3/5)x - 12/5
You are trying to find the perpendicular slope to this line. To do so, simply flip the slope (m) as well as the sign:
Original m = 3/5
Flipped m = -5/3
-5/3 is your perpendicular slope.
Answer:
5
m = - ---- perpendicular slope
3
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 5y = 12 -------->> convert to y = mx + b
- 5y = - 3x + 12
- 5y = - (3x + 12) --- eliminate the negative
5y = 3x + 12
3x + 12
y = -------------

y = -----x + -----

the above equation is the form of y = mx + b
where m is the slope and b is the intercept

therefore, m = - ---- perpendicular slope

Answer:
Median; 60
Step-by-step explanation:
For a data plot as shown in the question above, one easier measure of center that can be used for the data set represented is the median.
From the dot plot, we can easily pinpoint the exact median, which can be used as a measure of center.
There are 11 data points represented on the dot plot by 11 dots. The median, that is the median value of the data set, would be the 6th value represented by the 6th dot on the dot plot.
Thus, the middle value is 60.
60 is the median of the data set.

If the random variable X is normally distributed with mean of 50 and standard deviation of 7, find the 9th percentile.
Answer:
The 9th percentile is 40.52.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the random variable X is normally distributed with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 7.
Let X = the random variable
The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;
Z = [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, [tex]\mu[/tex] = population mean = 50
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation = 7
So, X ~ Normal([tex]\mu=50, \sigma^{2} = 7^{2}[/tex])
Now, the 9th percentile is calculated as;
P(X < x) = 0.09 {where x is the required value}
P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{x-50}{7}[/tex] ) = 0.09
P(Z < [tex]\frac{x-50}{7}[/tex] ) = 0.09
Now, in the z table the critical value of x that represents the below 9% of the area is given as -1.3543, i.e;
[tex]\frac{x-50}{7}=-1.3543[/tex]
[tex]x-50=-1.3543 \times 7[/tex]
[tex]x=50 -9.48[/tex]
x = 40.52
Hence, the 9th percentile is 40.52.
*please help* If multiple forces are acting on an object, which statement is always true?
The acceleration will be directed in the direction of the gravitational force.
The acceleration will be directed in the direction of the applied force.
The acceleration will be directed in the direction of the net force. <-- MY ANSWER
The acceleration will be directed in the direction of the normal force.
Answer: You are correct. The answer is choice C.
The sum of the vectors is the resultant vector, which is where the net force is directed.
An example would be if you had a ball rolling on a table and you bumped the ball perpendicular to its initial velocity, then the ball would move at a diagonal angle rather than move straight in the direction where you bumped it.
Acceleration is the change in velocity over time, so the acceleration vector tells us how the velocity's direction is changing.
The direction of the acceleration on a body upon which multiple forces are applied depends on the direction of the netforce acting on the body.
When multiple forces acts on a body, such that the different forces acts in different directions. The acceleration will be in the direction of the netforce. This is the direction where the Cummulative sum of the forces is greatest. Acceleration due to gravity is always acting downward, if the upward force is greater than the Gravitational force, then the acceleration won't be in that direction.Therefore, acceleration will be due in the direction of the netforce.

In 8 cups it is possible to measure the 2kg or 2000 grams but in three weighs it is not possible to measure the 2kg or 2000 grams.
What is a fraction?Fraction number consists of two parts, one is the top of the fraction number which is called the numerator and the second is the bottom of the fraction number which is called the denominator.
It is given that:
You have 9kg of oats and cup scales that gears of 50g and 200g.
Total oats need to measure = 9kg
As we know in 1 kg there are 1000 grams.
1 kg = 1000 grams
9kg = 9000 grams
2kg = 2000 grams
Cup scales that gears: 50g and 200g
The number of cups if consider one cup is of 250 grams( = 200 + 50)
Number of cups = 2000/250
Number of cups = 8
In three weighs it is not possible to measure the 2kg or 2000 grams.

-7x - 3 = 13 - 3x
Add 3x to both sides:
-4x - 3 = 13
Add 3 to both sides:
-4x = 16
Divide both sides by -4:
x = -4
Literal Equations: 5(x + y) = 2x +7y, Solve for x
Answer:
x=2y/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 2y/3
Step-by-step explanation:
5(x + y) = 2x + 7y
5x + 5y = 2x + 7y
5x - 2x = 7y - 5y
3x = 2y
x = 2y/3
Thus, The value of x = 2y/3
If the normality requirement is not satisfied (that is, np(1p) is not at least 10), then a 95% confidence interval about the population proportion will include the population proportion in ________ 95% of the intervals. (This is a reading assessment question. Be certain of your answer because you only get one attempt on this question.)
Answer:
less than
Step-by-step explanation:
If the normality requirement is not satisfied (that is, np(1 - p) is not at least 10), then a 95% confidence interval about the population proportion will include the population proportion in _less than__ 95% of the intervals.
The confidence interval consist of all reasonable values of a population mean. These are value for which the null hypothesis will not be rejected.
So, let assume that If the 95% confidence interval contains the value for the hypothesized mean, then the sample mean is reasonably close to the hypothesized mean. The effect of this is that the p- value is going to be greater than 0.05, so we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
On the other hand,
If the 95% confidence interval do not contains the value for the hypothesized mean, then the sample mean is far away from the hypothesized mean. The effect of this is that the p- value is going to be lesser than 0.05, so we reject the null hypothesis.
The average daily volume of a computer stock in 2011 was ų=35.1 million shares, according to a reliable source. A stock analyst believes that the stock volume in 2014 is different from the 2011 level. Based on a random sample of 30 trading days in 2014, he finds the sample mean to be 32.7 million shares, with a standard deviation of s=14.6 million shares. Test the hypothesis by constructing a 95% confidence interval. Complete a and b A. State the hypothesis B. Construct a 95% confidence interval about the sample mean of stocks traded in 2014.
Answer:
a
The null hypothesis is [tex]H_o : \mu = 35 .1 \ million \ shares[/tex]
The alternative hypothesis [tex]H_a : \mu \ne 35.1\ million \ shares[/tex]
b
The 95% confidence interval is [tex]27.475 < \mu < 37.925[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question the we are told that
The population mean is [tex]\mu = 35.1 \ million \ shares[/tex]
The sample size is n = 30
The sample mean is [tex]\= x = 32.7 \ million\ shares[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 14.6 \ million\ shares[/tex]
Given that the confidence level is [tex]95\%[/tex] then the level of significance is mathematically represented as
[tex]\alpha = 100-95[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 5\%[/tex]
=> [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]
Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table
The value is [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]
Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{ \sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]E = 1.96 * \frac{ 14.6 }{\sqrt{30} }[/tex]
[tex]E = 5.225[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval confidence interval is mathematically represented as
[tex]\= x -E < \mu < \= x +E[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]32.7 - 5.225 < \mu < 32.7 + 5.225[/tex]
[tex]27.475 < \mu < 37.925[/tex]
if (ax+b)(x-3) = 4x^2+cx-9 for all values of x, what is the value of c? a) -9 b) -6 c) 6 d) 9
Answer:
c=-9
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
[tex](ax+b)(x-3)=ax(x-3)+b(x-3)=ax^2-3ax+bx-3b\\\\=ax^2+(b-3a)x+(-3b) \\\\\text{And it should be equal to } 4x^2+cx-9[/tex]
We can identify the like terms so:
a = 4
b-3a = c
3b = 9 <=> b = 3
So c = 3 - 3*4 = 3-12 = -9
Hope this helps.
Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.
Thank you
