Persons taking a 30-hour review course to prepare for a standardized exam average a score of 620 on that exam. Persons taking a 70-hour review course average a score of 749. Find a linear equation which fits this data, and use this equation to predict an average score for persons taking a 57-hour review course. Round your answer to the tenths place.

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

30-hour review course average a score of 620 on that exam.

70-hour review course average a score of 749.

To find:

The linear equation which fits this data, and use this equation to predict an average score for persons taking a 57-hour review course.

Solution:

Let x be the number of hours of review course and y be the average score on that exam.

30-hour review course average a score of 620 on that exam. So, the linear function passes through the point (30,620).

70-hour review course average a score of 749. So, the linear function passes through the point (70,749).

The linear function passes through the points (30,620) and (70,749). So, the linear equation is:

[tex]y-y_1=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)[/tex]

[tex]y-620=\dfrac{749-620}{70-30}(x-30)[/tex]

[tex]y-620=\dfrac{129}{40}(x-30)[/tex]

[tex]y-620=\dfrac{129}{40}(x)-\dfrac{129}{40}(30)[/tex]

[tex]y-620=\dfrac{129}{40}(x)-\dfrac{387}{4}[/tex]

Adding 620 on both sides, we get

[tex]y=\dfrac{129}{40}x-\dfrac{387}{4}+620[/tex]

[tex]y=\dfrac{129}{40}x+\dfrac{2480-387}{4}[/tex]

[tex]y=\dfrac{129}{40}x+\dfrac{2093}{4}[/tex]

We need to find the y-value for [tex]x=57[/tex].

[tex]y=\dfrac{129}{40}(57)+\dfrac{2093}{4}[/tex]

[tex]y=183.825+523.25[/tex]

[tex]y=707.075[/tex]

[tex]y\approx 707.1[/tex]

Therefore, the required linear equation for the given situation is [tex]y=\dfrac{129}{40}x+\dfrac{2093}{4}[/tex] and the average score for persons taking a 57-hour review course is 707.1.

8. Colleen times her morning commute such that there is an equal likelihood that she will arrive early or late to work on any given day. If she always arrives either early or late, what is the probability that Colleen will arrive late to work no more than twice during a five-day workweek

Answers

Solution :

Case I :

If Collen is late on [tex]0[/tex] out of [tex]5[/tex] days.

[tex]$= \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} $[/tex]

[tex]$=\frac{1}{32}[/tex]

Case II :

When Collen is late on [tex]1[/tex] out of [tex]5[/tex] days.

[tex]$= \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times ^5C_1$[/tex]

[tex]$=\frac{1}{32} \times 5$[/tex]

[tex]$=\frac{5}{32}[/tex]

Case III :

When Collen was late on [tex]2[/tex] out of [tex]5[/tex] days.

[tex]$= \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times ^5C_2$[/tex]

[tex]$=\frac{1}{32} \times 10$[/tex]

[tex]$=\frac{5}{16}[/tex]

Therefore, the [tex]\text{probability}[/tex] that Collen will arrive late to work no more than [tex]\text{twice}[/tex] during a [tex]\text{five day workweek}[/tex] is :

[tex]$=\frac{1}{32} + \frac{5}{32} + \frac{5}{16} $[/tex]

[tex]$=\frac{1}{2}$[/tex]

a positive integer n is called special if n is divisible by 4, N+1 is divisible by 5 and n+2 is divisible by 6. how many special integers smaller than 1000 are there?​

Answers

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

these positive integers are :

4, 64, 124, 184 ... , 964

964 = 4 + (n-1) (60)

964 = 4 + 60n -60

964 = 60n -56

60n = 1020

n = 1020/60

n = 17

so, the number of special integers smaller than 1000 are = 17

The digits n, n+1 and n+2 implies that the special numbers are consecutive i.e. they follow one another. The count of special numbers less than 1000 is 17.

Given that:

[tex]\{n,n+1,n+2\} = \{4,5,6\}[/tex]

[tex]Range = 1000[/tex]

First, calculate the LCM of 4, 5 and 6.

[tex]4 = 2 \times 2[/tex]

[tex]5 = 5[/tex]

[tex]6 = 2 \times 3[/tex]

So, the LCM is:

[tex]LCM = 2 \times 2 \times 5 \times 3[/tex]

[tex]LCM = 60[/tex]

This means that the special digit occurs after every other 60 digits (i.e. the difference between a special digit and another is 60)

To calculate the count of special digits, we make use of arithmetic progression formula

[tex]L = a + (n - 1) \times d[/tex]

Where

[tex]L = 1000[/tex] --- the last term

[tex]a = 4[/tex] --- the first special digit

[tex]d = 60[/tex] --- the common difference as explained above

So, we have:

[tex]L = a + (n - 1) \times d[/tex]

[tex]1000 = 4 + (n - 1) \times 60[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]1000 - 4 =(n - 1) \times 60[/tex]

[tex]996 =(n - 1) \times 60[/tex]

Divide both sides by 60

[tex]16.6 =n - 1[/tex]

Add 1 to both sides

[tex]1 + 16.6 =n[/tex]

[tex]17.6 =n[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]n =17.6[/tex]

Remove the decimal part (do not approximate)

[tex]n =17[/tex]

Hence, the special numbers are 17 in total (that are less than 1000).

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is negative since it’s decreasing. So it’s not the first equation. It’s not a quadratic equation because there is no forming U shape for this data. It’s not a exponential function because the slope is not 3 and a exponential function is in the form y=a(b)^x

write an equation of the function in the form y=a(b)^x -c that has a y intercept of -6, asymptote of y= -2 and goes through (2,-18)

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Asymptote: y = 2 y-intercept: (0,8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x) = 6(0.5)^{x} + 2f(x)=6(0.5)

x

+2

This function is of the form:

f(x) = a {b}^{x} + cf(x)=ab

x

+c

where y=c is the horizontal asymptote.

By comparing , we have c=2 hence the horizontal asymptote is

y = 2y=2

To find the y-intercept, we put x=0 into the function to get:

f(0) = 6(0.5)^{0} + 2 = 6 + 2 = 8f(0)=6(0.5)

0

+2=6+2=8

Therefore the y-intercept is (0,8).

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

okay haha

so basically the cosine of an angle is the side adjacent to it, divided by the hypotenuse. the sine is the side opposite to that angle divided by the hypotenuse, and the tangent is the side opposite to that angle divided by the side adjacent to it.

in this case we are given the angle and the side opposite to it which is 10, and we are also given the hypotenuse of 39.

what trig function deals with opposite and hypotenuse?

the answer is sine

so we would find the sine of that angle which equals to opposite over hypotenuse:

sin(angle) = 10/39

but, they are asking for the inverse trig function. the inverse of sine is arcsin.

so :

arcsin(10/39) = angle

in a calculator, this would be equal to about 14.857 which is closest to 15.

O x = -5 and x = 5
O x = -4 and x = 4
O x = -1 and x = 9

Answers

Answer:

4th option, x = -1 and x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x-4)²=75

or, (x-4)²=25

or, x²-8x+16-25=0

or, x²-8x-9=0

or, x²-9x+x-9=0

or, x(x-9)+1(x-9)=0

or, (x-9)(x+1)=0

so, x-9=0 or, x=9

and x+1=0 or, x=-1

The two solutions of the quadratic equation are:

x = -1 and x = 9

How to solve the quadratic equation?

The quadratic equation is:

3*(x - 4)^2 = 75

We can expand it as:

3*x^2 - 3*2*4*x + 3*16 = 75

3x^2 - 24x  -27 = 0

Now, using Bhaskara's formula we get:

[tex]x = \frac{-(-24) \pm \sqrt{(-24)^2 - 4*3*(-27)} }{2*3} \\\\x = \frac{24 \pm 30 }{6}[/tex]

So the two solutions are:

D) $2500

Answers

The answer in image ...
Don't forget put heart ♥️ to me .

The amount invested at 4% is 1500.

How to estimate the amount invested at 4%?

Let x be the amount invested at 4%.

2x be the amount invested at 5%.

0.04x + 0.05(2x) = 210

Multiply by 100 to eliminate decimals

4x + 5(2x) = 21000

Remove parentheses: (a) = a

[tex]4 x+5 \cdot 2 x=21000[/tex]

Multiply the numbers: [tex]$5 \cdot 2=10$[/tex]

4x+10x = 21000

Add similar elements:

4x+10x = 14x

14x=21000

Divide both sides by 14

[tex]$\frac{14 x}{14}=\frac{21000}{14}[/tex]

Simplifying the above equation, we get

x = 1500

The amount invested at 4% is 1500.

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Here the vertex = (- 2, - 3 ) , then

y = a(x - (- 2))² - 3 , that is

y = a(x + 2)² - 3

To find a, substitute any point on the graph into the equation

Using the coordinates of the y- intercept (0, 5 )

5 = a(0 + 2)² - 3 ( add 3 to both sides )

8 = a(2)² = 4a ( divide both sides by 4 )

2 = a

y = 2(x + 2)² - 3 → B
