Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since m and k are the parallel lines and a transverse 'l' is intersecting these lines at two different points.
- Opposite angles at the point of intersection of parallel lines and the transverse will be the vertical angles.
∠1 ≅ ∠3, ∠2 ≅ ∠4, ∠5 ≅ ∠8 and ∠6 ≅ ∠7 [Vertical angles]
- Pair of angles between parallel lines 'k' and 'm' but on the opposite side of the transversal are the alternate interior angles.
∠4 ≅ ∠6 and ∠3 ≅ ∠5 [Alternate interior angles]
- Angles having the same relative positions at the point of intersection are the corresponding angles.
∠2 ≅ ∠6, ∠3 ≅ ∠8, ∠4 ≅ ∠7 and ∠1 ≅ ∠5 [Corresponding angles]
- Co interior angles are the angles between the parallel lines located on the same side of the transversal.
∠4 and ∠5, ∠3 and ∠6 [Co interior angles]
- Co exterior angles are the angles on the same side of the transverse but outside the parallel lines.
∠2 and ∠8, ∠1 and ∠7 [Co exterior angles]

A passenger train traveled 180 miles in the same amount of time it took a freight train to travel 120 miles. The rate of the freight train was 15 miles per hour slower than the rate of the passenger train. Find the rate of the passenger train.
Answer:
The passenger train is moving at 45 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount of time it took the two trains to travel the distance = t.
Since the two trains traveled the distance at the same time,
Rate of the passenger train =[tex]\frac{180}{t}[/tex]
Rate of the freight train = [tex]\frac{120}{t}[/tex]
Where t is in hours.
From the problem, we can see that the rate of the freight train was 15 miles per hour slower than the rate of the passenger train. Mathematically, we can represent this as
[tex]\frac{120}{t}= \frac{180}{t}-15[/tex]
from the above equation, we can now get our value for t as
[tex]\frac{120-180}{t}=-15\\\frac{-60}{t}=-15\\t=4 hours[/tex]
We have our time of travel for the two trains as 4 hours.
The rate of the passenger train can now be calculated by 180/4 = 45 miles per hour

105 a + 441b = 315
105a + 575b = 320
134b= 5
b= 0.037 , a= 2.843
Hence the equation for the required straight line is
Y = 2.843+ 0.037 X

The perimeter of a rectangle is 80 inches, if the width is 18 inches what is the area of the rectangle? A.22 sq.in B.324 sq.in C.396 sq.in D.6,400 sq.in
Answer:
396 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of a triangle is given by the formula:
● P = 2w+2L
L is the length and w is the width
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■
The width hereis 18 inches and the perimeter is 80 inches.
Replace w by 18 and P by 80 to find L.
● P= 2L+2w
● 80 = 2L + 2×18
● 80 = 2L + 36
Substrat 36 from both sides
● 80-36 = 2L+36-36
●44 = 2L
Divide both sides by 2
● 44/2 = 2L/2
● 22 = L
So the length is 22 inches

A 160-lb man carries a 5-lb can of paint up a helical staircase that encircles a silo with radius 20 ft. If the silo is 90 ft high and the man makes exactly three complete revolutions, how much work is done by the man against gravity in climbing to the top
Weight of man and paint = 160 + 5 = 165 total pounds.
Gravitational force is independent of the path taken so we can ignore the radius of the silo.
Work done = total weight x height
The problem says he climbs to the top so overall height is 90 feet
Work = 165 lbs x 90 ft = 14,850 ft-lbs
A new fast-food firm predicts that the number of franchises for its products will grow at the rate dn dt = 6 t + 1 where t is the number of years, 0 ≤ t ≤ 15.
Answer:
The answer is "253"
Step-by-step explanation:
In the given- equation there is mistype error so, the correct equation and its solution can be defined as follows:
Given:
[tex]\bold{\frac{dn}{dt} = 6\sqrt{t+1}}\\[/tex]
[tex]\to dn= 6\sqrt{t+1} \ \ dt.....(a)\\\\[/tex]
integrate the above value:
[tex]\to \int dn= \int 6\sqrt{t+1} \ \ dt \\\\\to n= \frac{(6\sqrt{t+1} )^{\frac{3}{2}}}{\frac{3}{2}}+c\\\\\to n= \frac{(12\sqrt{t+1} )^{\frac{3}{2}}}{3}+c\\\\[/tex]
When the value of n=1 then t=0
[tex]\to 1= \frac{12(0+1)^{\frac{3}{2}}}{3}+c\\\\ \to 1= \frac{12(1)^{\frac{3}{2}}}{3}+c\\\\\to 1-\frac{12}{3}=c\\\\\to \frac{3-12}{3}=c\\\\\to \frac{-9}{3}=c\\\\\to c=-3\\[/tex]
so the value of n is:
[tex]\to n= \frac{(12\sqrt{t+1} )^{\frac{3}{2}}}{3}-3\\\\[/tex]
when we put the value t= 15 then,
[tex]\to n= \frac{(12\sqrt{15+1} )^{\frac{3}{2}}}{3}-3\\\\\to n= \frac{(12\sqrt{16} )^{\frac{3}{2}}}{3}-3\\\\\to n= \frac{(12\times 64)}{3}-3\\\\\to n= (4\times 64)-3\\\\\to n= 256-3\\\\\to n= 253[/tex]
Heidi bought a machine that throws tennis balls for her dog to fetch. The height of each ball thrown by the machine, in feet, is modeled by the function f(x) = –x2 + x + 2, where x represents time in seconds. How many seconds after the machine throws the ball does it hit the ground?
Answer:
2 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation:
[tex]f(x) = -x^2 + x + 2[/tex]
Where f(x) represents the height of each ball thrown by machine.
and x represents the time in seconds.
To find:
The number of seconds after which the machine throws the balls hits the ground = ?
Solution:
In other words, we have to find the value of [tex]x[/tex] after which the [tex]f(x) = 0[/tex]
(Because when the ball hits the ground, the height becomes 0).
Let us put [tex]f(x) = 0[/tex] and solve for [tex]x[/tex]
[tex]f(x) = -x^2 + x + 2 =0\\\Rightarrow -x^2 + x + 2 =0\\\Rightarrow x^2 - x - 2 =0\\\Rightarrow x^2 - 2x+x - 2 =0\\\Rightarrow x(x - 2)+1(x - 2) =0\\\Rightarrow (x+1)(x - 2) =0\\\Rightarrow x =-1, 2[/tex]
[tex]x=-1[/tex] sec is not a valid answer because time can not be negative.
So, the answer is after 2 seconds, the ball hits the ground.

n₁ = 10 n₂ = 10
To find:
coefficient of variation for each of the two samples
Solution:
The formula for calculating coefficient of variation of sample is:
Coefficient of Variation (CV) = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
Calculate Mean for Security Service Company data:
Mean = (Σ x₁) / n₁
= (1.5 + 1.7 + 1.6 + 1.4 + 1.7 + 1.5 + 1.8 + 1.4 + 1.4 + 1.5) / 10
= 15.5 / 10
Mean = 1.55
Calculate Standard Deviation for Security Service Company data:
Standard Deviation = √∑(x₁ - Mean)²/n₁-1
= √∑(1.5-1.55)² + (1.7-1.55)² + (1.6-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.7-1.55)² + (1.5-1.55)² + (1.8-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.5-1.55)² / 10-1
=√∑ (−0.05)² + (0.15)² + (0.05)² + (−0.15)² + (0.15)² + (−0.05)² + (0.25)² + (−0.15)² + (−0.15)² + (−0.05)² / 10 - 1
= √∑0.0025 + 0.0225 + 0.0025 + 0.0225 + 0.0225 + 0.0025 + 0.0625 + 0.0225 + 0.0225 + 0.0025 / 9
= √0.185 / 9
= √0.020555555555556
= 0.14337208778404
= 0.143374
Standard Deviation = 0.143374
Coefficient of Variation for Security Service Company:
CV = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
= (0.143374 / 1.55) * 100
= 0.09249935 * 100
= 9.249935
CV = 9.2
CV = 9.2%
Calculate Mean for Other Companies data:
Mean = (Σ x₂) / n₂
= (1.8 + 1.9 + 1.6 + 1.7 + 1.8 + 1.9 + 1.6 + 1.5 + 1.7 + 1.8) / 10
= 17.3 / 10
Mean = 1.73
Calculate Standard Deviation for Other Companies data:
Standard Deviation = √∑(x₂-Mean)²/n₂-1
= √∑[(1.8-1.73)² + (1.9-1.73)² + (1.6-1.73)² + (1.7-1.73)² + (1.8-1.73)² + (1.9-1.73)² + (1.6-1.73)² + (1.5-1.73)² + (1.7-1.73)² + (1.8-1.73)²] / 10 - 1
= √∑ [(0.07)² + (0.17)² + (-0.13)² + (-0.03)² + (0.07)² + (0.17)² + (-0.13)² + (-0.23)² + (-0.03)² + (0.07)²] / 9
= √∑ (0.0049 + 0.0289 + 0.0169 + 0.0009 + 0.0049 + 0.0289 + 0.0169 + 0.0529 + 0.0009 + 0.0049) / 9
= √(0.161 / 9)
= √0.017888888888889
= 0.13374935098493
= 0.13375
Standard Deviation = 0.13375
Coefficient of Variation for Other Companies:
CV = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
= (0.13375 / 1.73) * 100
= 0.077312 * 100
= 7.7312
CV = 7.7
CV = 7.7%
Yes, the limited data listed here shows evidence of stealing by the security service company's employees because there is a significant difference in the variation.
Given the two functions, which statement is true?
fx = 3^4, g(x) = 3^x + 5
Answer:
third option
Step-by-step explanation:
Given f(x) then f(x) + c represents a vertical translation of f(x)
• If c > 0 then shift up by c units
• If c < 0 then shift down by c units
Given
g(x) = [tex]3^{x}[/tex] + 5 ← this represents a shift up of 5 units
Thus g(x) is the graph of f(x) translated up by 5 units
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{\sf{Option \: 3}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
g(x) is translated up 5 units compared to f(x). In a vertical translation, when the graph is moved 5 units up, 5 is added to the function. When the graph is moved 5 units down, 5 is subtracted from the function. The graphs are shifted in the direction of the y-axis.

a) When the speed is constant, the distance traveled is proportional to the travel time, a linear relationship. The distance traveled can be added to the initial distance to obtain the total distance (from town). This relation is a linear function. It can be modeled by the equation ...
d(t) = 4 + 64t . . . where t is travel time in hours, d(t) is the distance in miles
b) After 4 hours, the distance north of town is ...
d(4) = 4 +64(4) = 260
The car is 260 miles from the town after 4 hours.
Answer: Distance is a function of time. The constant rate of change is 64. Write the equation y = 64x + 22. Substitute 4 in for x to get 278 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
find the value of X from the given picture
Answer:
x = 108
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of a circle is 360
90 + x/2 + x+x = 360
Combine like terms
90 + 2x+x/2 = 360
90 + 5/2 x = 360
Subtract 90 from each side
5/2x = 270
Multiply each side by 2/5
5/2x * 2/5 = 270*2/5
x =108
Century Roofing is thinking of opening a new warehouse, and the key data are shown below. The company owns the building that would be used, and it could sell it for $100,000 after taxes if it decides not to open the new warehouse. The equipment for the project would be depreciated by the straight-line method over the project's 3-year life, after which it would be worth nothing and thus it would have a zero salvage value. No new working capital would be required, and revenues and other operating costs would be constant over the project's 3-year life. What is the project's NPV? (Hint: Cash flows are constant in Years 1-3.)
Question Completion:
WACC = 10.0%
Opportunity cost = $100,000
Net equipment cost (depreciable basis) = $65,000
Straight-line deprec. rate for equipment = 33.333%
Sales revenues, each year = $123,000
Operating costs (excl. deprec.), each year = $25,000
Tax rate = 35%
Answer:
Century Roofing
Project's NPV is: ($6,578)
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
WACC = 10.0%
Opportunity cost = $100,000
Net equipment cost (depreciable basis) = $65,000
Straight-line deprec. rate for equipment = 33.333%
Sales revenues, each year = $123,000
Operating costs (excl. deprec.), each year = $25,000
Tax rate = 35%
Cash outflow in year 0 = $165,000 (Opportunity and new equipment costs)
Annual Cash inflow = $123,000 - $25,000 - $34,300 = $63,700
PV of annuity for 3 years at 10% = $158,422 ($63,700 x 2.487)
NPV = Cash inflow minus Cash outflow
= $158,422 - $165,000
= ($6,578)
Negative NPV
b) Since Century Roofing could have realized $100,000 from the sale of the building if it decides not to open the new warehouse, this opportunity cost is factored into the calculation of the Net Present Value. It becomes a present cash outflow. Century Roofing's opportunity cost is defined as the loss of $100,000 being the future return from the best alternative project when it chooses to build the new warehouse instead of selling off the building.
