Answer 1

Answer:

The story tells of a plain-looking little bird (the Ugly Duckling) born in a barnyard. His brothers and sisters as well as the other birds and animals on the farm tease him for being plain and ugly, so he runs off to live with a flock of wild ducks and geese until hunters shoot down the flock. Alone again, the Ugly Duckling finds a home with an old woman, but her cat and hen also tease him, so he doesn't stay there long.

In his wanderings, the Ugly Duckling comes across a flock of migrating swans, and he wishes to join them but can't because he's too young and can't fly well enough. When winter sets in, a farmer rescues the Ugly Duckling, but the farmer's children and other animals frighten him with their noise and teasing, so again, he flees. He spends a cold and lonely winter hiding in a cave until springtime, when the flock of swans comes to the lake near his hiding place.

When the Ugly Duckling approaches the swans, he's delighted to find that they accept him and treat him like one of them. When he looks at his reflection in the lake, he realizes, to his astonishment, that he's matured into a beautiful swan himself. When the swans fly off from the lake, he spreads his wings and joins them, finally having found a family who accepts him.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The IQR is the range between Q1 and Q3. The quartile that represents 25% is Q1 and 75% is Q3. So, to solve find the range between 75% and 25%. The range is the difference. Therefore, subtract 25 from 40 to get the final answer, 15 minutes.

Dad is twice as old as Junior. Gramps is twice as old as Dad. The sum of the three ages is 140. How old is Gramps?​

Answers

Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start of with Junior's age. Then if dad is twice as old as Junior, then we add 2 parts and get 3 parts. Then Gramps is twice as old as Dad so we add 4 parts and get 7 parts. Now we divided 140 by 7. We get 20. This is Junior's age. By looking at that, we know Dad is 40, and Gramps is 80.

Gramps is 80 years old.

Hi! I'm happy to help!

We can say that Junior is x years old. This would mean that Dad is 2x years old, and Gramps is 4x years old. All together, their age is 7x. We can write an equation to solve.

7x=140

Divide both sides by 7 to find out x.

x=20

This means that Junior is 20 years old. Dad is double that, so he is 40 years old. And Gramps is double that so he is 80 years old.

To check our answer we can add all of them together.

20+40+80

140

This means that Gramps is 80 years old.

Factors and rewrite the expression 25x-15​

Answers

Answer:

5(5x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The common factor in this expression is 5 so divide 5 to all the values

25/5=5

-15/5= -3

Put these values into parenthesis and leave the 5 on the left side and out of the parenthesis

5(5x-3)

Answer:

5(5x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest common factor here is 5. Divide each term by 5 and simplify.

25x/5 = 5x

15/5 = 3

Therefore, the answer is 5(5x - 3).

Answers

Answer:

x = 55.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

cos theta = adj / hypotenuse

cos x = 9/16

Taking the inverse cos of each side

cos^-1 (cos x) = cos^-1 (9/16)

x=55.77113

To the nearest tenth

x = 55.8

Answer:

Relative to x, the side of 16 is the hypotenuse, and the side of 9 is adjacent.

So we think, what trigonometric property relates hypotenuse and adjacent sides of a right triangle?

SOH CAH TOA

We can use the COSINE function to solve in this case, as we have both  the ADJACENT SIDE (A) and the HYPOTENUSE (H).

Cosine = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

Cosine (x) = 9/16

Angle x = 55.8 degrees.

After how many years, to the nearest whole year, will an investment of $100,000 compounded quarterly at 4% be worth
$213,022?
Provide your answer below:

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  19 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound interest formula tells you the future value of principal P invested at annual rate r compounded n times per year for t years is ...

  A = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)

Solving for t, we get ...

  t = log(A/P)/(n·log(1 +r/n))

Using the given values, we find t to be ...

  t = log(2.13022)/(4·log(1 +0.04/4)) ≈ 19.000

The investment will be worth $213,022 after 19 years.

Determine the quadrant in which the terminal side of the given angle lies. -750°

Answers

Answer:

Quadrant 4

Step-by-step explanation:

If the given angle was positive, then we go clockwise.

But it's negative so we go counterclockwise.

An alternative way of graphing

Quadrant 1 is 0-90°

Quadrant 2 is 90-180°

Quadrant 3 is 180-270°

Quadrant 4 is 270-360°

Subtract the given angle by 360 until no longer possible

750 - 360 = 390     390 - 360 = 30

Remember that this was originally a negative angle

Instead of going clockwise to quadrant 1, we go counterclockwise to quadrant 4, ending up at 330°

A fruit company delivers its fruit in two types of boxes: large and small. A delivery of 7 large boxes and 9 small boxes has a total weight of 192
kilograms. A delivery of 5 large boxes and 3 small boxes has a total weight of 114 kilograms. How much does each type of box weigh?

Answers

Let L be the weight of a large box and S be the weight of a small box. So we can set up two equations:

2L + 3S = 83
4L + 8S = 197

Solve for L or S in one of the equations and substitute it into the other equation and find the other unknown.

2L = 83 - 3S
L = (83 - 3S)/2

4(83 - 3S)/2 + 8S = 197
166 - 6S + 8S = 197
2S = 31
S = 15.5 kg
L = (83 - 3(15.5))/2 = 18.25 kg

Find the local linear approximation L(x) of the function f(x) = 5−x^2 at x = 2.
Use this to estimate f(2.1).

Answers

Answer:

L(x)=-4x+9

L(2.1)=0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

It's asking us to find the tangent line to curve f(x) = 5−x^2 at x = 2.

Theb use this to estimate f(2.1).

To find slope of tangent line, we must differentiate and then plug in 2 for x.

f'(x)=0-2x by constant and power rule.

f'(x)=-2x

So the slope of the tangent line is -2(2)=-4.

A point on this tangent line shared by the curve is at x=2. We can find it's corresponding y-value using f(x)=5-x^2.

f(2)=5-(2)^2

f(2)=5-4

f(2)=1

So let's rephrase the question a little.

What's the equation for a line with slope -4 and goes through point (2,1).

Point-slope form y-y1=m(x-x1) where m is slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line.

Plug in our information: y-1=-4(x-2).

Distribute: y-1=-4x+8

Add 1 on both sides: y=-4x+9

Let's call this equation L(x), an expression to approximate value for f near x=2.

L(x)=-4x+9

Now the appropriation at x=2.1:

L(2.1)=-4(2.1)+9

L(2.1)=-8.4+9

L(2.1)=0.6

If we did plug in 2.1 into given function we get 5-(2.1)^2=0.59 . This is pretty close to our approximation above.

The length of a rectangle is 3 ft longer than its width.
If the perimeter of the rectangle is 42 ft, find its area.

Answers

Answer:

A = 108 feet²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width is b.

Length = 3+b

Perimeter of the rectangle, P = 42 ft

Perimeter = 2(l+b)

42 = 2 (3+b+b)

21 = (3+2b)

21-3 = 2b

18 = 2b

b = 9 feet

Length, l = 3+9 = 12 feet

Area of the rectangle,

A = lb

So,

A = 12 × 9

A = 108 feet²

So, the area of the rectangle is 108 feet².

  p(a) = 1.09^(a-20)

Adding the present values for the different ages, we get a total of about 2.35528984846. Dividing the inheritance by that amount gives the multiplier for each of the present value numbers. The result is the list of shares shown above. At age 20, each brother will inherit about 636,864.29.

The entrance ticket for a carnival costs $89.97, which includes a royal meal
that costs $10.85, 1 play station game, and 3 water rides (Each water ride
costs the same price). The cost of a water ride is twice as that of a play
station game. Find the cost of a water ride. Estimate to the nearest tenths.

Answers

Subtract the meal:

89.97- 10.85 = 79.12

Let the play station game = x

A water ride is twice that so a water ride is 2x

There is 3 water rides : 3 x 2x =6x

The PlayStation game and water rides = 79.12

6x + x = 79.12

Simplify:

7x = 79.12

Divide both sides by 7:

X = 11.30

The PlayStation game is 11.30

The water ride = 2 x 11.30 = 22.60

Examining and Interpreting a Statistical Report
To help make his case to potential investors in his invention, Martin found a poll conducted by Gallup, a well-known research organization. Take some time to read the report, and then answer the questions to analyze the merits and limitations of this survey.

Part A
The poll report includes a table titled, “Americans Using Cash Now Versus Five Years Ago, by Age.” The age intervals are not equal. Why do you think the Gallup organization chose the age intervals of 23–34, 35–54, and 55+ to display these results?

Answers

The Gallup organization chose the age intervals of 23–34, 35–54, and 55+ to display these results due to they wanted to identify the habits about the use of cash in the different stages of a person's life, differentiated by ranges of unequal age.

Application of statistics in the collection of information.

Although the most common case when preparing a frequency table is to develop equal ranges that allow the behavior of the respondents to be identified every certain number of possible values.

Example:

0.1 - 10 10.1 - 20 20.1 - 30

On some occasions, irregular or uneven ranges are used that refer to a specific market stage or niche.

In part A of the exercise, you can clearly identify the three stages of adult life that could change your money-use habits:

23 - 34: Group that could be called "young adults", possibly made up of university students, and people who recently started their work stage. 35 - 54: Group of "middle-aged people", made up of people who have been working and managing their finances for a long time, even those who are even close to retirement. 55 or more: People of the "third age" or close to said category, made up of pre-pensioners and pensioners or people who are no longer active in employment.

As you can see, each of these groups present great differences that, from the point of view of a person interested in investing in their invention, a poll report like this is more attractive to select the niche of potential investors based on the work stage of said person.

By this reason, The Gallup organization chose the age intervals due to their money-habits, depending on the stage of his/her life.
