Step-by-step explanation:
Can somebody explain how trigonometric form polar equations are divided/multiplied?
Answer:
Attachment 1 : Option C
Attachment 2 : Option A
Step-by-step explanation:
( 1 ) Expressing the product of z1 and z2 would be as follows,
[tex]14\left[\cos \left(\frac{\pi \:}{5}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi \:\:}{5}\right)\right]\cdot \:2\sqrt{2}\left[\cos \left(\frac{3\pi \:}{2}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{3\pi \:\:}{2}\right)\right][/tex]
Now to solve such problems, you will need to know what cos(π / 5) is, sin(π / 5) etc. If you don't know their exact value, I would recommend you use a calculator,
cos(π / 5) = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{5}+1}{4}[/tex],
sin(π / 5) = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5-\sqrt{5}}}{4}[/tex]
cos(3π / 2) = 0,
sin(3π / 2) = - 1
Let's substitute those values in our expression,
[tex]14\left[\frac{\sqrt{5}+1}{4}+i\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5-\sqrt{5}}}{4}\right]\cdot \:2\sqrt{2}\left[0-i\right][/tex]
And now simplify the expression,
[tex]14\sqrt{5-\sqrt{5}}+i\left(-7\sqrt{10}-7\sqrt{2}\right)[/tex]
The exact value of [tex]14\sqrt{5-\sqrt{5}}[/tex] = [tex]23.27510\dots[/tex] and [tex](-7\sqrt{10}-7\sqrt{2}\right))[/tex] = [tex]-32.03543\dots[/tex] Therefore we have the expression [tex]23.27510 - 32.03543i[/tex], which is close to option c. As you can see they approximated the solution.
( 2 ) Here we will apply the following trivial identities,
cos(π / 3) = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex],
sin(π / 3) = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex],
cos(- π / 6) = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex],
sin(- π / 6) = [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Substitute into the following expression, representing the quotient of the given values of z1 and z2,
[tex]15\left[cos\left(\frac{\pi \:}{3}\right)+isin\left(\frac{\pi \:\:}{3}\right)\right] \div \:3\sqrt{2}\left[cos\left(\frac{-\pi \:}{6}\right)+isin\left(\frac{-\pi \:\:}{6}\right)\right][/tex] ⇒
[tex]15\left[\frac{1}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right]\div \:3\sqrt{2}\left[\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}+-\frac{1}{2}\right][/tex]
The simplified expression will be the following,
[tex]i\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}[/tex] or in other words [tex]\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}i[/tex] or [tex]\frac{5i\sqrt{2}}{2}[/tex]
The solution will be option a, as you can see.
The chief business officer of a construction equipment company arranges a loan of $9,300, at 12 1 /8 % interest for 37.5 months. Find the amount of interest. (Round to the nearest cent)
a. $2,761.21
b. $3,583.83
c. $3,523.83
d. $3,722.47
Answer:
C). $3523.83
Step-by-step explanation:
loan of principles p= $9,300,
at rate R= 12 1 /8 % interest
Rate R = 12.125%
for duration year T = 37.5 months
T= 37.5/12 = 3.125 years
Interest I=PRT/100
Interest I =( 9300*12.125*3.125)/100
Interest I = (352382.8125)/100
Interest I = 3523.83
Interest I= $3523.83
An evergreen nursery usually sells a certain shrub after 9 years of growth and shaping. The growth rate during those 9 years is approximated by
dh/dt = 1.8t + 3,
where t is the time (in years) and h is the height (in centimeters). The seedlings are 10 centimeters tall when planted (t = 0).
(a) Find the height after t years.
h(t) =
(b) How tall are the shrubs when they are sold?
cm
Answer:
(a) After t years, the height is
18t² + 3t + 10
(b) The shrubs are847 cm tall when they are sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given growth rate
dh/dt = 1.8t + 3
dh = (18t + 3)dt
Integrating this, we have
h = 18t² + 3t + C
When t = 0, h = 10cm
Then
10 = C
So
(a) h = 18t² + 3t + 10
(b) Because they are sold after every 9 years, then at t = 9
h = 18(9)² + 3(9) + 10
= 810 + 27 + 10
= 847 cm

-3(-4x+4)=15+3x
Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
● -3 (-4x+4) = 15 + 3x
Multiply -3 by (-4x+4) first
● (-3) × (-4x) + (-3)×(4) = 15 + 3x
● 12 x - 12 = 15 +3x
Add 12 to both sides
● 12x - 12 + 12 = 15 + 3x +12
● 12 x = 27 + 3x
Substract 3x from both sides
● 12x -3x = 27 + 3x - 3x
● 9x = 27
Dividr both sides by 9
● 9x/9 = 27/9

Answer:
The value of [tex]4^{\dfrac{1}{3}} {\cdot} 4^{\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex] is [tex]4^{\dfrac{8}{15}}[/tex] .
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to simplify the numeric expression using property. The expression is as follows :
[tex]4^{\dfrac{1}{3}} {\cdot} 4^{\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]
The property to be used is : [tex]x^a{\cdot} x^b=x^{a+b}[/tex]
This property is valid if the base is same. Here, base is x.
In this given problem, x = 4, a = 1/3 and b = 1/5
So,
[tex]4^{\dfrac{1}{3}} {\cdot} 4^{\dfrac{1}{5}}=4^{\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{5}}\\\\=4^{\dfrac{5+3}{15}}\\\\=4^{\dfrac{8}{15}}[/tex]
So, the value of [tex]4^{\dfrac{1}{3}} {\cdot} 4^{\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex] is [tex]4^{\dfrac{8}{15}}[/tex] .

[tex]P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Sections = 10[/tex]
[tex]n(Gray) = 5[/tex]
[tex]n(Blue) = 5[/tex]
Required
Determine P(Gray and Blue)
Using probability formula;
[tex]P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = P(Gray) * P(Blue)[/tex]
Calculating P(Gray)
[tex]P(Gray) = \frac{n(Gray)}{Sections}[/tex]
[tex]P(Gray) = \frac{5}{10}[/tex]
[tex]P(Gray) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Calculating P(Gray)
[tex]P(Blue) = \frac{n(Blue)}{Sections}[/tex]
[tex]P(Blue) = \frac{5}{10}[/tex]
[tex]P(Blue) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Substitute these values on the given formula
[tex]P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = P(Gray) * P(Blue)[/tex]

Luke owns a trucking company. For every truck that goes out, Luke must pay the driver $17 per hour of driving and also has an expense of $1.75 per mile driven for gas and maintenance. On one particular day, the driver drove an average of 40 miles per hour and Luke's total expenses for the driver, gas and truck maintenance were $522. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of hours the driver worked and the number of miles the truck drove. Define the variables that you use to write the system.
Answer:
17h+1.75m=522 m=40h
Step-by-step explanation:
Let h= {the number of hours the driver drove}
Let m= the number of miles driven
The driver makes $17 for each hour working, so if the driver worked for hh hours, Luke would have to pay him 17h17h dollars. The cost of gas and maintenance is $1.75 per mile, so for mm miles Luke's costs would be 1.75m1.75m dollars. The total cost of the route 17h+1.75m17h+1.75m equals \$522:$522:
17h+1.75m=522
17h+1.75m=522
Since the driver drove an avearge of 40 miles per hour, if the driver drove hour, he would have driven 40 miles, and if the driver drove hh hours, he would have driven 40h40h miles, therefore mm equals 40h:40h:
m=40h
m=40h
Write System of Equations:
17h+1.75m= 522
m=40h
The truck is going for a run for 6 hours and the system of the equation to solve a further problem related to this is [tex]\rm{Cost}=17x+1.75y[/tex]
The following are the different costs of the truck that Luke must be pay while running a truck:
Luke must pay the driver $17 per hour of driving.A truck has an expense of $1.75 per mile driven for gas and maintenance.Let ' x ' be the total time of driving a truck in hours.
and ' y ' be the total mile distance that is covered by the truck.
Therefore, the system of the equation for the overall running cost for a truck is given below.
[tex]\rm{Cost}=17x+1.75y[/tex]
Now, On one particular day, the driver drove an average of 40 miles per hour, and Luke's total expenses for the driver, gas and truck maintenance were $522.
Thus,
The total distance traveled by truck is 40x.
That is,
[tex]y=40x[/tex]
Substitute the values and solve them further.
[tex]522=17x+1.75y\\522=17x+1.75 \times 40x\\522=17x+70x\\522=87x\\x=6[/tex]
Thus, the truck is going for a run for 6 hours and the system of the equation to solve the further problems related to this is [tex]\rm{Cost}=17x+1.75y[/tex]

On a coordinate plane, a line goes through (negative 3, 3) and (negative 2, 1). A point is at (4, 1). What is the equation, in point-slope form, of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (4, 1)? y − 1 = −2(x − 4) y – 1 = Negative one-half(x – 4) y – 1 = One-half(x – 4) y − 1 = 2(x − 4)
Answer:
y - 1 = -2(x - 4).
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to find the slope. Two sets of coordinates are (-3, 3), and (-2, 1).
(3 - 1) / (-3 - -2) = 2 / (-3 + 2) = 2 / (-1) = -2.
The line will be parallel to the given line, so the slope is the same.
Now that we have a point and the slope, we can construct an equation in point-slope form.
y1 = 1, x1 = 4, and m = -2.
y - 1 = -2(x - 4).
Hope this helps!
The slope of the line passing parallel to the given line and passes through the point (4, 1) is y = -2x + 9
The equation of a straight line is given by:
y = mx + b
where y, x are variables, m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept.
The slope of the line passing through the points (-3,3) and (-2,1) is:
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\\\m=\frac{1-3}{-2-(-3)} \\\\m=-2[/tex]
Since both lines are parallel, hence they have the same slope (-2). The line passes through (4,1). The equation is:
[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\y-1=-2(x-4)\\\\y=-2x+9[/tex]

The force of gravity on an object varies directly with its mass. The constant of variation due to gravity is 32.2 feet per second squared. Which equation represents F, the force on an object due to gravity according to m, the object’s mass? F = 16.1m F = F equals StartFraction 16.1 Over m squared EndFraction. F = 32.2m F = F equals StartFraction 32.2 Over m squared EndFraction.
Answer:
F = 32.2mStep-by-step explanation:
According to newton second law, the force of gravity on an object varies directly with its mass and it is expressed mathematically as Fαm i.e
F = mg where;
F is the force of gravity
m is the mass of the body
g is the proportionality constant known as the acceleration due to gravity.
If the constant of variation due to gravity is 32.2ft/s², the equation that represents F, the force on an object due to gravity according to m, the object’s mass can be gotten by substituting g = 32.2 into the formula above according to the law as shown;
F = m*32.2
F =32.2m
Hence the required equation is F = 32.2m
A cardboard box without a lid is to be made with a volume of 4 ft 3 . Find the dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of cardboard.
Answer:
2ft by 2ft by 1 ftStep-by-step explanation:
Total surface of the cardboard box is expressed as S = 2LW + 2WH + 2LH where L is the length of the box, W is the width and H is the height of the box. Since the cardboard box is without a lid, then the total surface area will be expressed as;
S = lw+2wh+2lh ... 1
Given the volume V = lwh = 4ft³ ... 2
From equation 2;
h = 4/lw
Substituting into r[equation 1;
S = lw + 2w(4/lw)+ 2l(4/lw)
S = lw+8/l+8/w
Differentiating the resulting equation with respect to w and l will give;
dS/dw = l + (-8w⁻²)
dS/dw = l - 8/w²
Similarly,
dS/dl = w + (-8l⁻²)
dS/dw = w - 8/l²
At turning point, ds/dw = 0 and ds/dl = 0
l - 8/w² = 0 and w - 8/l² = 0
l = 8/w² and w =8/l²
l = 8/(8/l² )²
l = 8/(64/I⁴)
l = 8*l⁴/64
l = l⁴/8
8l = l⁴
l³ = 8
l = ∛8
l = 2
Hence the length of the box is 2 feet
Substituting l = 2 into the function l = 8/w² to get the eidth w
2 = 8/w²
1 = 4/w²
w² = 4
w = 2 ft
width of the cardboard is 2 ft
Since Volume = lwh
4 = 2(2)h
4 = 4h
h = 1 ft
Height of the cardboard is 1 ft
The dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of cardboard is 2ft by 2ft by 1 ft
You sell tickets at school for fundraisers. You sold car wash tickets, silly string fight tickets and dance tickets – for a total of 380 tickets sold. The car wash tickets were $5 each, the silly sting fight tickets were $3 each and the dance tickets were $10 each. If you sold twice as many silly string tickets as car wash tickets, and you have $1460 total. Write the matrix in the box below. Write the solution set for this system and include any necessary work.
Answer:
Matrix :
[tex]\begin{bmatrix}1&1&1&|&380\\ 5&3&10&|&1460\\ -2&1&0&|&0\end{bmatrix}[/tex]
Solution Set : { x = 123, y = 246, z = 11 }
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say that x represents the number of car wash tickets, y represents the number of silly sting fight tickets, and z represents the number of dance tickets. We know that the total tickets = 380, so therefore,
x + y + z = 380,
And the car wash tickets were $5 each, the silly sting fight tickets were $3 each and the dance tickets were $10 each, the total cost being $1460.
5x + 3y + 10z = 1460
The silly string tickets were sold for twice as much as the car wash tickets.
y = 2x
Therefore, if we allign the co - efficients of the following system of equations, we get it's respective matrix.
System of Equations :
[tex]\begin{bmatrix}x+y+z=380\\ 5x+3y+10z=1460\\ y=2x\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

And we can continue, canceling the leading co - efficient in each row until this matrix remains,
[tex]\begin{bmatrix}1&0&0&|&\frac{2340}{19}\\ 0&1&0&|&\frac{4680}{19}\\ 0&0&1&|&\frac{200}{19}\end{bmatrix}[/tex]
x = 2340 / 19 = ( About ) 123 car wash tickets sold, y= 4680 / 19 =( About ) 246 silly string fight tickets sold, z = 200 / 19 = ( About ) 11 tickets sold
The radius of a sphere is measured as 7 centimeters, with a possible error of 0.025 centimeter.
Required:
a. Use differentials to approximate the possible propagated error, in cm3, in computing the volume of the sphere.
b. Use differentials to approximate the possible propagated error in computing the surface area of the sphere.
c. Approximate the percent errors in parts (a) and (b).
Answer:
a) dV(s) = 15,386 cm³
b) dS(s) = 4,396 cm²
c) dV(s)/V(s) = 1,07 % and dS(s)/ S(s) = 0,71 %
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The volume of the sphere is
V(s) = (4/3)*π*x³ where x is the radius
Taking derivatives on both sides of the equation we get:
dV(s)/ dr = 4*π*x² or
dV(s) = 4*π*x² *dr
the possible propagated error in cm³ in computing the volume of the sphere is:
dV(s) = 4*3,14*(7)²*(0,025)
dV(s) = 15,386 cm³
b) Surface area of the sphere is:
V(s) = (4/3)*π*x³
dV(s) /dx = S(s) = 4*π*x³
And
dS(s) /dx = 8*π*x
dS(s) = 8*π*x*dx
dS(s) = 8*3,14*7*(0,025)
dS(s) = 4,396 cm²
c) The approximates errors in a and b are:
V(s) = (4/3)*π*x³ then
V(s) = (4/3)*3,14*(7)³
V(s) = 1436,03 cm³
And the possible propagated error in volume is from a) is
dV(s) = 15,386 cm³
dV(s)/V(s) = [15,386 cm³/1436,03 cm³]* 100
dV(s)/V(s) = 1,07 %
And for case b)
dS(s) = 4,396 cm²
And the surface area of the sphere is:
S(s) = 4*π*x³ ⇒ S(s) = 4*3,14*(7)² ⇒ S(s) = 615,44 cm²
dS(s) = 4,396 cm²
dS(s)/ S(s) = [ 4,396 cm²/615,44 cm² ] * 100
dS(s)/ S(s) = 0,71
what are the comparison symbols for 5/6 and 2/5, 4/10 and 7/8, and 3/12 and 1/4
Answer like this: Example
=
<
>
Answer:
5/6 > 2/44/10 < 7/83/12 = 1/4Step-by-step explanation:
The comparison will be the same if you subtract the right side and compare to zero:
a/b ?? c/d . . . . . . . using ?? for the unknown comparison symbol
a/b - c/d ?? 0 . . . . subtract the fraction on the right
(ad -bc)/bd ?? 0 . . . combine the two fractions
ad - bc ?? 0 . . . . . . multiply by bd to make the job easier

5/6 and 2/5
5(5) -6(2) = 25 -12 > 0 ⇒ 5/6 > 2/5
4/10 and 7/8
4(8) -10(7) = 48 - 70 < 0 ⇒ 4/10 < 7/8
3/12 and 1/4
3(4) -12(1) = 0 ⇒ 3/12 = 1/4
_____
Of course, you can use your calculator (or your memory) to change each of these to a decimal equivalent. The comparison should be easy at that point.
0.833 > 0.400
0.400 < 0.875
0.250 = 0.250
) A random sample of size 36 is selected from a normally distributed population with a mean of 16 and a standard deviation of 3. What is the probability that the sample mean is somewhere between 15.8 and 16.2
Answer:
The probability is 0.31084
Step-by-step explanation:
We can calculate this probability using the z-score route.
Mathematically;
z = (x-mean)/SD/√n
Where the mean = 16, SD = 3 and n = 36
For 15.8, we have;
z = (15.8-16)/3/√36 = -0.2/3/6 = -0.2/0.5 = -0.4
For 16.2, we have
z = (16.2-16)/3/√36 = 0.2/3/6 = 0.2/0.5 = 0.4
So the probability we want to calculate is;
P(-0.4<z<0.4)
We can get this using the standard normal distribution table;
So we have;
P(-0.4 <z<0.4) = P(z<-0.4) - P(z<0.4)
= 0.31084
