Answer:

50ft by 120ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = L × W

6000ft² = L × W

L = 6000/W

When a diagonal line divides a rectangle into 2 right angled triangles, the diagonal line = Hypotenuse of either of the triangle and it is the longest side.

The formula for a right angle triangle =

a² + b² = c²( c = hypotenuse)

We are told in the question that:

A diagonal between opposite corners is measured to be 10 ft longer than one side of the parcel

Let us assume the side that the hypotenuse is longer than = Width

Hence, the Diagonal = (W + 10)²

Therefore

L² + W² = (W + 10)²

Since L = 6000/W

W² + (6000/W)² = (W + 10)²

W² + (6000/W)² = (W + 10) (W + 10)

W² + (6000/W)² = W² + 10W + 10W + 100

W² + (6000/W)² = W² + 20W + 100

W² - W² + (6000/W)² = 20W+ 100

6000²/W² = 20W + 100

6000² = W²( 20W + 100)

6000² = 20W³ + 100W²

20W³ + 100W² - 6000² = 0

20W³ + 100W² - 36000000 = 0

20(W³ + 5W² - 1800000) = 0

Factorising the quadratic equation,

20(W − 120)(W² + 125W + 15000) = 0

W - 120 = 0

W = 120

Therefore,

W(Width) = 120feet

Since the Width = 120 feet

We can find the length

6000ft² = L × W

L = 6000/W

L = 6000/120

L = 50 feet

The dimensions of the land, correct to the nearest foot is 50ft by 120ft

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that v(x) = g(x)×(3/2*x^4+4x-1)

Let's find V'(2)

V(x) is a product of two functions

● V'(x) = g'(x)×(3/2*x^4+4x-1)+ g(x) ×(3/2*x^4+4x-1)

We are interested in V'(2) so we will replace x by 2 in the expression above.

g'(2) can be deduced from the graph.

● g'(2) is equal to the slope of the tangent line in 2.

● let m be that slope .

● g'(2) = m =>g'(2) = rise /run

● g'(2) = 2/1 =2

We've run 1 square to the right and rised 2 squares up to reach g(2)

g(2) is -1 as shown in the graph.

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Let's derivate the second function.

Let h(x) be that function

● h(x) = 3/2*x^4 +4x-1

● h'(x) = 3/2*4*x^3 + 4

● h'(x) = 6x^3 +4

Let's calculate h'(2)

● h'(2) = 6 × 2^3 + 4

● h'(2) = 52

Let's calculate h(2)

●h(2) = 3/2*2^4 + 4×2 -1

●h(2)= 31

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Replace now everything with its value to find V'(2)

● V'(2) = g'(2)×h(2) + g(2)× h'(2)

● V'(2)= 2×31 + (-1)×52

●V'(2) = 61 -52

●V'(2)= 9

Answer:

perimeter = 20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

consider breaking the rhombus into four equal parts.

and that gives you a triangle.

(refer to image attached for more clarification)

let a = 3, b = 4

to get the side c, use Pythagorean theorem = c² = a² + b²

c = sqrt (3² + 4²)

side c = 5

therefore,

perimeter = 4 x sides (c)

perimeter = 4 x 5

perimeter = 20 cm

∑[tex]\left \ {{5} \atop {j=1}} \right.[/tex] 2j

The sum of series from j=1 to j=5 is:

∑ = 2(1) + 2(2) + 2(3) + 2(4) + 2(5)

  =  2 + 4 + 6 + 8 + 10

∑ = 30

2)

This question is not given clearly so i assume the following series that will give you an idea how to solve this:

∑[tex]\left \ {{4} \atop {k=1}} \right.[/tex] 2k²

The sum of series from k=1 to j=4 is:

∑ = 2(1)² + 2(2)² + 2(3)² + 2(4)²

  = 2(1) + 2(4) + 2(9) + 2(16)

  =  2 + 8 + 18 + 32

∑ = 60

∑[tex]\left \ {{4} \atop {k=1}} \right.[/tex] (2k)²

∑ = (2*1)² + (2*2)² + (2*3)² + (2*4)²

  = (2)² + (4)² + (6)² + (8)²

  = 4 + 16 + 36 + 64

∑ = 120

∑[tex]\left \ {{4} \atop {k=1}} \right.[/tex] (2k)²- 4

∑ = (2*1)²-4 + (2*2)²-4 + (2*3)²-4 + (2*4)²-4

  = (2)²-4 + (4)²-4 + (6)²-4 + (8)²-4

  = (4-4) + (16-4) + (36-4) + (64-4)

  = 0 + 12 + 32 + 60

∑ = 104

∑[tex]\left \ {{4} \atop {k=1}} \right.[/tex] 2k²- 4

∑ = 2(1)²-4 + 2(2)²-4 + 2(3)²-4 + 2(4)²-4

  = 2(1)-4 + 2(4)-4 + 2(9)-4 + 2(16)-4

  = (2-4) + (8-4) + (18-4) + (32-4)

  = -2 + 4 + 14 + 28

∑ = 44

3)

∑[tex]\left \ {{6} \atop {k=3}} \right.[/tex] (2k-10)

∑ = (2×3−10) + (2×4−10) + (2×5−10) + (2×6−10)  

  = (6-10) + (8-10) + (10-10) + (12-10)

  = -4 + -2 + 0 + 2  

∑ = -4

4)

1+1/2+1/4+1/8+1/16+1/32+1/64

This is a geometric sequence where first term is 1 and the common ratio is 1/2 So

a = 1

This can be derived as

1/2/1 = 1/2 * 1 = 1/2

1/4/1/2 = 1/4 * 2/1 = 1/2

1/8/1/4 = 1/8 * 4/1  = 1/2

1/16/1/8 = 1/16 * 8/1  = 1/2

1/32/1/16 = 1/32 * 16/1  = 1/2

1/64/1/32 = 1/64 * 32/1  = 1/2

Hence the common ratio is r = 1/2

So n-th term is:

[tex]ar^{n-1}[/tex] = [tex]1(\frac{1}{2})^{n-1}[/tex]

So the answer that represents the series in sigma notation is:

∑[tex]\left \ {{7} \atop {j=1}} \right.[/tex] [tex](\frac{1}{2})^{j-1}[/tex]

5)

−3+(−1)+1+3+5

This is an arithmetic sequence where the first term is -3 and the common difference is 2. So  

a = 1

This can be derived as

-1 - (-3) = -1 + 3 = 2

1 - (-1) = 1 + 1 = 2

3 - 1 = 2

5 - 3 = 2

Hence the common difference d = 2

The nth term is:

a + (n - 1) d

= -3 + (n−1)2

= -3 + 2(n−1)

= -3 + 2n - 2

= 2n - 5

So the answer that represents the series in sigma notation is:

∑[tex]\left \ {{5} \atop {j=1}} \right.[/tex] (2j−5)

For (1) the sum is 30, for (2) the sum is 90, for (3) the sum is -4, for(4) the sigma notation is  [tex]\rm \sum j = 1(\frac{1}{2})^{j-1}\\[/tex]  where j = 1 to j = 7, and for (5) the sigma notation is  [tex]\rm\sum j = (2j-5)[/tex]  where j = 1 to j = 5.

We have different series in the question.

It is required to find the sum of all series.

In mathematics, a series can be defined as a group of data that followed certain rules of arithmetic.

1) We have:

[tex]\rm \sum j=2j[/tex]   where j = 1 to j = 5

After expanding the series, we get:

= 2(1)+2(2)+2(3)+2(4)+2(5)

=2(1+2+3+4+5)

= 2(15)

=30

2) We have:

[tex]\rm \sum k=(2k^2-4)[/tex]  where k = 1 to k = 4

After expanding the series, we get:

[tex]\rm = (2(1)^2-4)+(2(2)^2-4)+(2(3)^2-4)+(2(4)^2-4)+(2(5)^2-4)\\[/tex]

[tex]\rm = 2[1^2+2^2+3^2+4^2+5^2]-4\times5\\\\\rm=2[55]-20\\\\\rm = 90[/tex]

3) We have:

[tex]\rm \sum k= (2k-10)[/tex]  where k = 3 to k = 6

After expanding the series, we get:

[tex]= (2(3)-10)+(2(4)-10)+(2(5)-10)+(2(6)-10)\\\\=2[3+4+5+6] - 10\times4\\\\=2[18] - 40\\\\= -4[/tex]

4) The series given below:

[tex]1, \frac{1}{2} ,\frac{1}{4},\frac{1}{8},\frac{1}{16},\frac{1}{32},\frac{1}{64}[/tex]

It is a geometric progression:

[tex]\rm n^t^h[/tex] for the geometric progression is given by:

[tex]\rm a_n = ar^{n-1}[/tex]

[tex]\rm a_n = 1(\frac{1}{2})^{n-1}\\\\\rm a_n = (\frac{1}{2})^{n-1}\\[/tex]

In sigma notation we can write:

[tex]\rm \sum j = 1(\frac{1}{2})^{j-1}\\[/tex]  where j = 1 to j = 7

5) The given series:

−3+(−1)+1+3+5, it is arithmetic series.

[tex]\rm n^t^h[/tex] for the arithmetic progression is given by:

[tex]\rm a_n = a+(n-1)d[/tex]

[tex]\rm a_n = -3+(n-1)(2)\\\\\rm a_n = 2n-5[/tex]

In sigma notation we can write:

[tex]\rm\sum j = (2j-5)[/tex]  where j = 1 to j = 5

Thus, for (1) the sum is 30, for (2) the sum is 90, for (3) the sum is -4, for(4) the sigma notation is  [tex]\rm \sum j = 1(\frac{1}{2})^{j-1}\\[/tex]  where j = 1 to j = 7, and for (5) the sigma notation is  [tex]\rm\sum j = (2j-5)[/tex]  where j = 1 to j = 5.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

[tex]\mathsf{f(x) = x^2 -5 } \\ \\ \mathsf{x_1 = 2}[/tex]

The derivative of the first function of (x) is:

[tex]\mathsf{f'(x) =2x }[/tex]

According to Newton's Raphson method for function formula:

[tex]{\mathrm{x_{n+1} = x_n - \dfrac{f(x_n)}{f'(x_n)}}[/tex]

where;

[tex]\mathbf{x_1 =2}[/tex]

The first iteration is as follows:

[tex]\mathtt{f(x_1) = (2)^2 - 5} \\ \\ \mathbf{f(x_1) = -1}[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{f'(x_1) = 2(2)} \\ \\ \mathbf{ = 4}[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{f(x_1)}{f'(x_1)}} = \dfrac{-1}{4}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{f(x_1)}{f'(x_1)} =-0.25}[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{x_1 - \dfrac{f(x_1)}{f'(x_1)}} = \mathtt{2 - (-0.25)}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_1 - \dfrac{f(x_1)}{f'(x_1)} = 2.25}[/tex]

Therefore;

[tex]\mathbf{x_2 = 2.25}[/tex]

For the second iteration;

[tex]\mathtt f(x_2) = (2.25)^2 -5}[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt f(x_2) = 5.0625-5}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{ f(x_2) =0.0625}[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{f'(x_2)= 2(2.25)}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{f'(x_2)= 4.5}[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{ \dfrac{f(x_2)}{f'(x_2)}} = \dfrac{0.0625}{4.5}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{ \dfrac{f(x_2)}{f'(x_2)} = 0.01389}[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{x_2 - \dfrac{f(x_2)}{f'(x_2)}} = \mathtt{2.25 -0.01389}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_2 - \dfrac{f(x_2)}{f'(x_2)} = 2.2361}}[/tex]

Explicación paso a paso:

Verifique el diagrama en el archivo adjunto.

En el diagrama, se puede ver que el lado FC es igual al lado FB de acuerdo con el triángulo isósceles FBC.

Además, el lado FB es igual a AB ya que son paralelos entre sí.

De la declaración anterior, | FC | = | FB | y | FB | = | AB |

Esto significa | FC | = | FB | = | AB |

Answer:

The​ z-score for 1880 is 1.34.

The​ z-score for 1190 is -0.88.

The​ z-score for 2130 is 2.15.

The​ z-score for 1350 is -0.37.

And the z-score of 2130 is considered to be unusual.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is: A standardized​ exam's scores are normally distributed. In recent​ years, the mean test score was 1464 and the standard deviation was 310. The test scores of four students selected at random are ​1880, 1190​, 2130​, and 1350. Find the​ z-scores that correspond to each value and determine whether any of the values are unusual. The​ z-score for 1880 is nothing. ​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.) The​ z-score for 1190 is nothing. ​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.) The​ z-score for 2130 is nothing. ​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.) The​ z-score for 1350 is nothing. ​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.) Which​ values, if​ any, are​ unusual? Select the correct choice below​ and, if​ necessary, fill in the answer box within your choice. A. The unusual​ value(s) is/are nothing. ​(Use a comma to separate answers as​ needed.) B. None of the values are unusual.

We are given that the mean test score was 1464 and the standard deviation was 310.

Let X = standardized​ exam's scores

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

                          Z  =  [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\mu[/tex] = mean test score = 1464

           [tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation = 310

S, X ~ Normal([tex]\mu=1464, \sigma^{2} = 310^{2}[/tex])

Now, the test scores of four students selected at random are ​1880, 1190​, 2130​, and 1350.

So, the z-score of 1880 =  [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

                                      =  [tex]\frac{1880-1464}{310}[/tex]  = 1.34

The z-score of 1190 =  [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

                                =  [tex]\frac{1190-1464}{310}[/tex]  = -0.88

The z-score of 2130 =  [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

                                =  [tex]\frac{2130-1464}{310}[/tex]  = 2.15

The z-score of 1350 =  [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

                                =  [tex]\frac{1350-1464}{310}[/tex]  = -0.37

Now, the values whose z-score is less than -1.96 or higher than 1.96 are considered to be unusual.

According to our z-scores, only the z-score of 2130 is considered to be unusual as all other z-scores lie within the range of -1.96 and 1.96.

Answer:

3.25 + 5.50S ≤ 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Chocolate milk cost $3.25.

Maximum bill that Benjamin wants = $30

Cost of a stack pancake(44) = $5.50

Let number of stacks of pancakes bought = S

Benjamin will spend all the money available on 1 chocolate milk and S number of stacks of pancakes.

Cost of 1 pancake = $5.50

Cost of S number of stacks of pancakes = S*5.50

=5.50S

Total money spent =$3.25+5.50S

The total money spent should either be lesser than or equal to $30

The inequality is

3.25 + 5.50S ≤ 30

Largest number of pancakes Benjamin can afford

3.25 + 5.50S ≤ 30

5.50S ≤ 30-3.25

5.50S ≤ 26.75

Divide both sides by 5.50

S ≤ 4.86

1 stack=44 pancakes

4.86 stacks= 4.86 *44

=213.84 pancakes

Answer:

[tex] d = 7 + 3\sqrt{3} [/tex] and

[tex] d = 7 - 3\sqrt{3} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation, [tex] d^2 - 14d - 22 = 0 [/tex], using the quadratic formula,

Recall: quadratic formula = [tex] \frac{-b ± \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} [/tex]

Where,

a = 1

b = -14

c = 22

Plug in your values into the formula and solve:

[tex] \frac{-(-14) ± \sqrt{(-14)^2 - 4(1)(22)}}{2(1)} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{14 ± \sqrt{196 - 88}}{2} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{14 ± \sqrt{108}}{2} [/tex]

[tex] d = \frac{14 + \sqrt{108}}{2} [/tex]

[tex] d = \frac{14 + 6\sqrt{3}}{2} [/tex]

[tex] d = (\frac{2(7 + 3\sqrt{3})}{2} [/tex]

[tex] d = 7 + 3\sqrt{3} [/tex]

And

[tex] d = \frac{14 - \sqrt{108}}{2} [/tex]

Answer:

Infinite number of solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are an infinite number of solutions.  If you graph both lines, you find they are the same line.  If you multiply the send equation by -4, you’ll end up with the first equation.  I’m not sure what your teacher means by specifying their form.

Answer:

{June, Janet, Jill, Justin, Jeffrey, Jelly,Irina, Irena, Arena, Arina, }

Step-by-step explanation:

A ∪ C

This means union so we join the sets together

A = {June, Janet, Jill, Justin, Jeffrey, Jelly} + C = {Irina, Irena, Arena, Arina, Jelly}

A U C =  {June, Janet, Jill, Justin, Jeffrey, Jelly,Irina, Irena, Arena, Arina, Jelly}

We get rid of repeats

A U C =  {June, Janet, Jill, Justin, Jeffrey, Jelly,Irina, Irena, Arena, Arina, }

Answer:

Deposit value(P) = $17,760 (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Future value (F) = $30,000

Number of Year (n) = 15 year = 15 × 12 = 180 month

rate of interest (r) = 3.5% = 0.035 / 12 = 0.0029167

Find:

Deposit value(P)

Computation:

[tex]A = P(1+r)^n\\\\ 30000 = P(1+0.0029167)^{180} \\\\ 30000 = P(1.68917) \\\\ P = 17760.2018[/tex]

Deposit value(P) = $17,760 (Approx)

Answer:

Hello the options to your question is missing below are the options

 A) if sample means were obtained for a long series of samples, approximately 95 percent of all sample means would be between 10 and 16 miles

B.the unknown population mean is definitely between 10 and 16 miles

C.if these intervals were constructed for a long series of samples, approximately 95 percent would include the unknown mean commute distance for all Californians

D.the unknown population mean is between 10 and 16 miles with probability .95

Answer : if these intervals were constructed for a long series of samples, approximately 95 percent would include the unknown mean commute distance for all Californians  ( c )

Step-by-step explanation:

95%  confidence

interval = 10 to 16 miles

To have 95% confidence signifies that if these intervals were constructed for a long series of samples, approximately 95 percent would include the unknown mean commute distance for all Californians

confidence interval covers a range of samples/values in the interval and the higher the % of the confidence interval the more precise the interval is,

Answer:

a) In the interval  (  55,9  ;   456,7 ) we will find 99,7 % of all values

b) In the interval  (  122,7  ;  389,9 ) we find 95,4 % of all values

Step-by-step explanation:

For a Normal distribution N (μ ; σ ) the Empirical rule establishes that the intervals:

( μ  ±  σ  )          contains 68,3 % of all values

( μ  ±  2σ  )        contains 95,4 % of all values

( μ  ±  3σ  )        contains 99,7 % of all values

If   N ( 256,3 ; 66,8 )

σ  =  66,8        ⇒   3*σ  = 3 * 66,8  = 200,4

Then:     256,3 - 200,4  =  55,9

And        256,3 + 200,4 = 456,7

a) In the interval  (  55,9  ;   456,7 ) we will find 99,7 % of all values

b) 2*σ  = 2 * 66,8  = 133,6

Then  256,3 - 133,6  = 122,7

And    256,3 + 133,6 = 389,90

Then in the interval  (  122,7  ;  389,9 ) we find 95,4 % of all values
