Answer:

[tex]y = -x - 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are trying to get the equation [tex]3x + 3y = -9[/tex] into the form [tex]y = mx+b[/tex], aka slope-intercept form.

To do this we are trying to isolate y.

[tex]3x + 3y = -9[/tex]

Subtract 3x from both sides:

[tex]3y = -9 - 3x[/tex]

Rearrange the terms:

[tex]3y = -3x - 9[/tex]

Divide both sides by 3:

[tex]y = -x - 3[/tex]

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:

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

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The first sentence basically sets up the equation which is given, so we can read it for knowledge but it is not crucial to solve the problem.

We start here:

we are given: $120 - 0.2($120)

= 120 - (0.2)(120)   (factoring out 120)

= 120 (1 - 0.2)

= 120 (0.8)

= 0.8 (120)     (answer c)

Answer:

14 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that the distance of the paths from Cedarburg to Allenville is 22 and 13/16 miles, and we know the distance from Cedarburg to Lakeside is 8 and 13/16 miles.

We know that the total distance is made up of the distance from C to L and L to A.

So 22 and 13/16 = 8 and 13/16 + L to A

We can subtract 22 and 13/16 by 8 and 13/16 to get 14 miles.

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:

3.25+5.50S≤30

Step-by-step explanation:

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]

Therefore, [tex]\mathbf{x_3 = 2.2361}[/tex]

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.

Hello, there!!!

Let ABC be a Right angled triangle,

where, AB = 3

BC= 10

and AC= x

now,

As the triangle is a Right angled triangle, taking angle C asrefrence angle. we get,

h= AC = x

p= AB = 3

b= BC= 10

now, by Pythagoras relation we get,

[tex]h = \sqrt{ {p}^{2} + {b}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex]or ,\: h = \sqrt{ {3}^{2} + {10}^{2} } [/tex]

by simplifying it we get,

h = 10.44030

Therefore, the answer is x= 10.

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We want to isolate y on one side of the equation to see what it equals. To do this, we use inverse operations to cancel out numbers on the y side and find the correct value.

1/3y+4=16

We subtract 4 from both sides, canceling out the +4 on the right but keeping the same y-value by doing the same to the other side.

1/3y=12

We divide both sides by 1/3 (which is multiplying both sides by 3) which will cancel out the 1/3 and tell us what y is equal to.

y=36

Answer:

(A) A 95% confidence for the population mean is [$332.16, $447.84] .

(B) If the confidence level in part (a) changed from 95% to 99%, then the margin of error for the confidence interval would increase.

(C) If the sample size in part (a) changed from 19 to 22, then the margin of error for the confidence interval would decrease.

(D) A 99% confidence interval for the proportion of students who purchase used textbooks is [0.363, 0.477]  .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 19 students are randomly selected the sample mean was $390 and the standard deviation was $120.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for finding the confidence interval for the population mean is given by;

                             P.Q.  =  [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]  ~ [tex]t_n_-_1[/tex]

where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean = $390

            s = sample standard deviation = $120

            n = sample of students = 19

            [tex]\mu[/tex] = population mean

Here for constructing a 95% confidence interval we have used a One-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about population standard deviation.

So, 95% confidence interval for the population mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is ;

P(-2.101 < [tex]t_1_8[/tex] < 2.101) = 0.95  {As the critical value of t at 18 degrees of

                                               freedom are -2.101 & 2.101 with P = 2.5%}  

P(-2.101 < [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < 2.101) = 0.95

P( [tex]-2.101 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]{\bar X-\mu}[/tex] < [tex]2.101 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.95

P( [tex]\bar X-2.101 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]\mu[/tex] < [tex]\bar X+2.101 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.95

95% confidence interval for [tex]\mu[/tex] = [ [tex]\bar X-2.101 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] , [tex]\bar X+2.101 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ]

                        = [ [tex]\$390-2.101 \times {\frac{\$120}{\sqrt{19} } }[/tex] , [tex]\$390+2.101 \times {\frac{\$120}{\sqrt{19} } }[/tex] ]

                        = [$332.16, $447.84]

(A)  Therefore, a 95% confidence for the population mean is [$332.16, $447.84] .

(B) If the confidence level in part (a) changed from 95% to 99%, then the margin of error for the confidence interval which is [tex]Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_) \times \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex] would increase because of an increase in the z value.

(C) If the sample size in part (a) changed from 19 to 22, then the margin of error for the confidence interval which is [tex]Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_) \times \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]  would decrease because as denominator increases; the whole fraction decreases.

(D) We are given that to estimate the proportion of students who purchase their textbooks used, 500 students were sampled. 210 of these students purchased used textbooks.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for finding the confidence interval for the population proportion is given by;

                             P.Q.  =  [tex]\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\hat p[/tex] = sample proportion students who purchase their used textbooks = [tex]\frac{210}{500}[/tex] = 0.42    

            n = sample of students = 500

            p = population proportion

Here for constructing a 99% confidence interval we have used a One-sample z-test statistics for proportions

So, 99% confidence interval for the population proportion, p is ;

P(-2.58 < N(0,1) < 2.58) = 0.99  {As the critical value of z at 0.5%

                                               level of significance are -2.58 & 2.58}  

P(-2.58 < [tex]\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] < 2.58) = 0.99

P( [tex]-2.58 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]{\hat p-p}[/tex] < [tex]2.58 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.99

P( [tex]\hat p-2.58 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] < p < [tex]\hat p+2.58 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.99

99% confidence interval for p = [ [tex]\hat p-2.58 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] , [tex]\hat p+2.58 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ]

= [ [tex]0.42 -2.58 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.42(1-0.42)}{500} } }[/tex] , [tex]0.42 +2.58 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.42(1-0.42)}{500} } }[/tex] ]

= [0.363, 0.477]

Therefore, a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of students who purchase used textbooks is [0.363, 0.477]  .

Answer:

Yes, it is invertible

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find in the matrix determinant is different from zero, since iif it is, that the matrix is invertible.

Let's use co-factor expansion to find the determinant of this 4x4 matrix, using the column that has more zeroes in it as the co-factor, so we reduce the number of determinant calculations for the obtained sub-matrices.We pick the first column for that since it has three zeros!

Then the determinant of this matrix becomes:

[tex]4\,*Det\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&4&6\\0&3&8\\0&0&1\end{array}\right] +0+0+0[/tex]

And the determinant of these 3x3 matrix is very simple because most of the cross multiplications render zero:

[tex]Det\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&4&6\\0&3&8\\0&0&1\end{array}\right] =1 \,(3\,*\,1-0)+4\,(0-0)+6\,(0-0)=3[/tex]

Therefore, the Det of the initial matrix is : 4 * 3 = 12

and then the matrix is invertible

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]

[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]

Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{3x-2}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x-1}{2}[/tex]

Cross-multiply:

2(3x-2) = 2(x-1)

Simplify:

6x - 4 = 2x - 2

Subtract 2x from both sides:

4x - 4 = -2

Add 4 to both sides:

4x = 2

Divide both sides by 4:

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

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:

One pound of chicken is $1.34

Step-by-step explanation:

So, if 9.5 pounds of chicken is $12.73, all you have to do it divide 12.73 and 9.5. That way, you can see how much each pound is separately! Hopefully this helps!

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{1\ pound\ of\ chicken = \$1.34}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

9.5 pounds of chicken = $12.73

Dividing both sides by 9.5

1 pound of chicken = $12.73 / 9.5

1 pound of chicken = $1.34
