What is the answer to 5/8 - 1/4^2

Basically, everything except choice A.

=========================================================

Explanation:

All exponential functions can be written into the form y = a*b^x

The b term determines if we have growth or decay.

If 0 < b < 1, then we have decay. If b > 1, then we have growth.

------------

For choice A, we have b = 1.7 which satisfies b > 1. This represents growth. So we cross choice A off the list.

Choice B looks almost identical since it appears b = 1.7 here as well, but note the negative exponent. It might help to rewrite choice B into y = 3( 1.7^(-2) )^x and note how b = (1.7)^(-2) = 0.346 approximately. This represents decay.

Choice C has b = 1/3 = 0.33 approximately which is also decay.

Finally, choice D has b = 2^(-1) = 1/(2^1) = 1/2 = 0.5 which is also decay.

Choices B through D have b values such that 0 < b < 1.

------------

Check out the graph below. It visually confirms the answers mentioned earlier. A growth function goes uphill as we move to the right, while a decay function moves downhill while moving to the right.

I used GeoGebra to make the graph.

Answer:

  D.  5.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The point U divides segment SP into the ratio 1 : 2. So, segment SU is 1/2 the length of segment UP.

  SU = UP/2 = 3.6/2 = 1.8

The length of PS is ...

  PS = PU +US = 3.6 +1.8

  PS = 5.4

Additional comment

If you were asked to find the value of x, you would discover x=1. That is not what you're asked here.

For a geometric sequence

a, ar, ar ², ar ³, …

the n-th term in the sequence is ar ⁿ ⁻ ¹.

The first sequence is

1, 3, 9, 27, …

so it's clear that a = 1 and r = 3, and so the n-th term is 3ⁿ ⁻ ¹.

The second sequence is

400, 200, 100, 50, …

so of course a = 400, and you can easily solve for r :

200 = 400r   ==>   r = 200/400 = 1/2

Then the n-th term is 400 (1/2)ⁿ ⁻ ¹.

Similarly, the other sequences are given by

3rd: … 4 × 2ⁿ ⁻ ¹

4th: … 400 (1/4)ⁿ ⁻ ¹

5th: … 5ⁿ ⁻ ¹

6th: … 1000 (1/2)ⁿ ⁻ ¹

7th: … 2 × 5ⁿ ⁻ ¹

Answer:

x = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles labeled with the pink x are the same.  Line V and Line X are parallel and alternate interior angles are equal when the lines are parallel.

We know the 3 angles inside the triangle and the sum of the angles of a triangle are 180

x+x+ 2x = 180

4x= 180

4x/4 = 180/4

x = 45

...............

Answer: 8/11

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because there are a total of 22 bulbs. 16 of those bulbs work, giving us the fraction: 16/22. If you simplify 16/22 by dividing the numerator and denominator by 2, you get 8/11.

=================================================

Explanation:

There are 16 working bulbs out of 6+16 = 22 bulbs total.

The probability of randomly selecting a working bulb is 16/22

After that first bulb is selected and not put back, the probability of randomly selecting another working bulb is 15/21. Take note that I subtracted 1 from each part of the original fraction.

So we get the answer of

(16/22)*(15/21) = 240/462 = 40/77 which is choice C.

------------

Extra info:

=======================================================

Explanation:

The smaller angles HGE and EGF combine to form the largest angle HGF.

This is an example of the angle addition postulate.

(angle HGE) + (angle EGF) = angle HGF

(3x+11) + (110) = 16x+4

3x+121 = 16x+4

121-4 = 16x-3x

117 = 13x

13x = 117

x = 117/13

x = 9 which is the final answer

We can stop here.

--------------------

Extra info (optional section)

Use this x value to find each angle shown below

Then notice how,

(angle HGE)+(angle EGF) = 38+110 = 148

which is exactly the measure of angle HGF

This confirms that the equation

(angle HGE) + (angle EGF) = angle HGF

is true for that x value of x = 9. Therefore, the answer is confirmed.

Answer:

SORRY I don't know second number . I did only first .

Answer:

13 and 39

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of two numbers = 52

One number is 3 times as large as the other

Equation:

x + 3x = 52

4x = 52

52 / 4 = x

x = 13

13 * 3 = 39

The numbers are 13 and 39

Answer:

38,250

Step-by-step explanation:

Its a 15% discount so youre only paying 85% of the original 45,000. You then multiply 45,000 by .85 to find what youre paying because the decimal version of 85% is .85. You can find the decimal version of a percentage by dividing the percentage by 100; 85/100=.85. Once you multiply 45,000 by .85 you get 38,250.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(N)0.05 + (17-N)0.1 = M; M = amount of money I have.

Or 1.7-0.05N = M.

An expression two different ways to  the amount of money is equals to

1. 5N + 10 (17 -N)  = Y cents

2. N + 2(17 - N) = Y nickels

" Amount is defined as the total of any given quantity."

According to the question,

Total number of coins = 17

Number of nickels coins = N

Number of dimes coin = 17 - N

'Y' express the amount of money

Represent amount of money in cents

1 dime = 10 cents

1 nickel = 5 cents

Expression to represents amount of money in cents,

5N + 10 (17 -N)  = Y cents

Expression to represents amount of money in nickels,

1 dime = 2 nickel

N + 2(17 - N) = Y nickels

Hence, an expression two different ways to  the amount of money is equals to

1. 5N + 10 (17 -N)  = Y cents

2. N + 2(17 - N) = Y nickels

Answer:

m<PQR = 18.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the Law of Sines,

[tex] \frac{Sin A}{a} = \frac{Sin B}{b} [/tex]

Where,

Sin A = Sin 140

a = 100 m

Sin B = Sin R (<PRQ)

b = 50 m

Substitute

[tex] \frac{Sin 140}{100} = \frac{Sin R}{50} [/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex] 100*Sin(R) = 50*Sin(140) [/tex]

Divide both sides by 100

[tex] Sin(R) = \frac{50*Sin(140)}{100} [/tex]

[tex] Sin(R) = 0.32139 [/tex]

[tex] R = Sin^{-1}(0.32139) [/tex]

R ≈ 18.7° (nearest tenth)

m<PQR = 18.7°

The angle PRO is 1.7 degrees.

Given that,

The diagram shows three points P, Q, and R on horizontal ground.

PQ = 50 m, PR = 100 m and angle PQR = 140°.

We have to determine,

The angle PRO.

According to the question,

The value of angle PRO is determined by using the sin rule-following all the steps given below.

[tex]\rm \dfrac{sina}{a} = \dfrac{sinb}{b}[/tex]

Where,  Sin A = Sin 140 , a = 100 m , Sin B = Sin R (<PRQ) , b = 50 m

Substitute all the values in the formula,

[tex]\rm \dfrac{sin140}{100} = \dfrac{sinR}{50}\\\\ \dfrac{0.64}{100} = \dfrac{sinR}{50}\\\\0.0064 = \dfrac{sinR}{50}\\\\0.0064 \times 50 = sinR\\\\0.321 = sinR\\\\R = sin{-1}(0.321)\\\\R = 18.7 \ degree[/tex]

Hence, The angle PRO is 1.7 degrees.

Answer:

(i) 7/10

(ii) 3/10

(iii) 1/5

(iv) Rs 40,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The fraction of the salary spent on food = 1/2

The fraction of the salary spent on rented house fee = 1/5

(i) The fraction spent for both food and rental fee = (1/2) + (1/5) = (5 + 2)/10 = 7/10

(ii) The remainder (rest) of the salary = 1 - 7/10 = 3/10

The fraction of the remainder spent for children's education = 1/3

The fraction of the total salary spent for the children's education = (1/3) × (3/10) = 1/10

(iii) The remaining portion deposited in the bank = 1 - (1/10 + 7/10)) = 2/10 = 1/5

(iv) The amount equal to portion of 1/5 of his salary deposited in the bank is Rs 8000

Let x represent his whole salary, we have;

(1/5) × x = Rs 8,000

x = 5 × Rs 8,000 = Rs 40,000

His whole salary is Rs 40,000.

2^2 + 2^2 = h^2

8 = h^2
