x - 3y +3=0
a) The length of the perpendicular drawn from the point (a, 3) on the line
3x + 4y + 5 = 0 is 4. Find the value of a.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

We know that for a line:

y = a*x + b

where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Any line with a slope equal to -(1/a) will be perpendicular to the one above.

So here we start with the line:

3x + 4y + 5 = 0

let's rewrite this as:

4y = -3x - 5

y = -(3/4)*x - (5/4)

So a line perpendicular to this one, has a slope equal to:

- (-4/3) = (4/3)

So the perpendicular line will be something like:

y = (4/3)*x + c

We know that this line passes through the point (a, 3)

this means that, when x = a, y must be equal to 3.

Replacing these in the above line equation, we get:

3 = (4/3)*a + c

c = 3 - (4/3)*a

Then the equation for our line is:

y = (4/3)*x + 3 - (4/3)*a

We can rewrite this as:

y = (4/3)*(x -a) + 3

now we need to find the point where this line ( y = -(3/4)*x - (5/4)) and the original line intersect.

We can find this by solving:

(4/3)*(x -a) + 3 =  y = -(3/4)*x - (5/4)

(4/3)*(x -a) + 3  = -(3/4)*x - (5/4)

(4/3)*x - (3/4)*x = -(4/3)*a - 3 - (5/4)

(16/12)*x - (9/12)*x = -(4/3)*a - 12/4 - 5/4

(7/12)*x = -(4/13)*a - 17/4

x = (-(4/13)*a - 17/4)*(12/7) = - (48/91)*a - 51/7

And the y-value is given by inputin this in any of the two lines, for example with the first one we get:

y =  -(3/4)*(- (48/91)*a - 51/7) - (5/4)

  = (36/91)*a + (153/28) - 5/4

Then the intersection point is:

( - (48/91)*a - 51/7,  (36/91)*a + (153/28) - 5/4)

And we want that the distance between this point, and our original point (3, a) to be equal to 4.

Remember that the distance between two points (a, b) and (c, d) is:

distance = √( (a - c)^2 + (b - d)^2)

So here, the distance between (a, 3) and ( - (48/91)*a - 51/7,  (36/91)*a + (153/28) - 5/4) is 4

4 = √( (a + (48/91)*a + 51/7)^2 + (3 -  (36/91)*a + (153/28) - 5/4 )^2)

If we square both sides, we get:

4^2 = 16 =  (a + (48/91)*a + 51/7)^2 + (3 -  (36/91)*a - (153/28) + 5/4 )^2)

Now we need to solve this for a.

16 = (a*(1 + 48/91)  + 51/7)^2 + ( -(36/91)*a  + 3 - 5/4 + (153/28) )^2

16 = ( a*(139/91) + 51/7)^2 + ( -(36/91)*a  - (43/28) )^2

16 = a^2*(139/91)^2 + 2*a*(139/91)*51/7 + (51/7)^2 +  a^2*(36/91)^2 + 2*(36/91)*a*(43/28) + (43/28)^2

16 = a^2*( (139/91)^2 + (36/91)^2) + a*( 2*(139/91)*51/7 + 2*(36/91)*(43/28)) +  (51/7)^2 + (43/28)^2

At this point we can see that this is really messy, so let's start solving these fractions.

16 = (2.49)*a^2 + a*(23.47) + 55.44

0 = (2.49)*a^2 + a*(23.47) + 55.44 - 16

0 = (2.49)*a^2 + a*(23.47) + 39.44

Now we can use the Bhaskara's formula for quadratic equations, the two solutions will be:

[tex]a = \frac{-23.47 \pm \sqrt{23.47^2 - 4*2.49*39.4} }{2*2.49} \\\\a = \frac{-23.47 \pm 12.57 }{4.98}[/tex]

Then the two possible values of a are:

a = (-23.47 + 12.57)/4.98  = -2.19

a = (-23.47 - 12.57)/4.98 = -7.23

A store is having a sale on chocolate chips and walnuts. For 8 pounds of chocolate chips and 3 pounds of walnuts, the total cost is $34. For 2 pounds of chocolate chips and 5 pounds of walnuts, the total cost is $17. Find the cost for each pound of chocolate chips and each pound of walnuts.

Answers

Answer:

chocolate chips are $2.00 per pound.

nd walnuts must be $3.50 per pound.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the price of walnuts and y the price of chocolate chips.

2x + 5y = 17 (i)

8x + 3y = 34 (ii)

Multiply (i) by 4 to get

8x + 20y = 68

Subtract (ii) to get

 17y = 34

Dividing by 17, we see that chocolate chips are $2.00 per pound.

Substituting y=2 in (i) or (ii), walnuts must be $3.50 per pound.

For the rhombus below, find the measures of ∠1, ∠2, ∠3, and ∠4.

Answers

Answer:

∠1 = 116 °  ,  ∠2 = 32°  , ∠3 = 116 ° and ∠4 = 32°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠2 = 32°  (The diagonals of a rhombus bisect pairs of opposite angles)

Opposite sides of a rhombus are parallel ,so

∠2 = ∠4   (Alternate interior angles )

∠4 = 32°

32° + ∠4 + ∠3 = 180° (angle sum property of a triangle)

64° + ∠3 = 180°

∠3 = 180 - 64

∠3 = 116°

∠3 =∠1    (in a rhombus opposite angles are equal )

∠1 = 116°

I operate a small convenience store. Typically, I get about 10 customers per hour. If the mean time before I get my 25th customer is 2.5 hours, what is the standard deviation associated with the time until I see my 25th customer

Answers

Answer:

The standard deviation associated with the time until I see my 25th customer is of 2.5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we have the mean time between x successes, which characterizes the exponential distribution.

As in this question context, the important thing to note is that for the exponential distribution, the mean and the standard deviation are the same.

Mean time before I get my 25th customer is 2.5 hours, what is the standard deviation associated with the time until I see my 25th customer?

They are the same in the exponential distribution, so 2.5 hours.

A right cylinder has a radius of 3 and a height of 12. What is its surface area?

Answers

Answer:

Option A, [tex]90\pi[/tex] [tex]units^{2}[/tex], is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the surface area of a cylinder is as follows:

A= [tex]2\pi rh+2\pi r^{2}[/tex]

We know that the radius, r, is 3, and the height, h, is 12.

r=3

h=12

Pi will be rounded to 3.14.

Thus, applying the known values to the formula:

A=[tex]2(3.14)(3)(12)+2(3.14)(3)^{2}[/tex]

A=226.08+56.52

A=282.6 [tex]units^{2}[/tex]

In accord with the given options, we must determine which one has a product of around 282.6:

A. [tex]90\pi =282.7433388[/tex]

B.[tex]72\pi =226.1946711[/tex]

C.[tex]108\pi =339.2920066[/tex]

D.[tex]45\pi =141.3716694[/tex]

Therefore, option A, [tex]90\pi units^{2}[/tex], is correct.

Answer:

F statistic = 2.124

Pvalue = 0.0546

A. Fail to reject the null hypothesis. There is insufficient evidence to to support the claim that those given a sham treatment have reductions that vary more than those treated with magnets

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : pain reduction is the same

H1 : pain reduction is varies more with sham.

Sham n= 20 x=0.41 s=1.37

Magnet n= 20 x =0.46 s= 0.94

α - level = 0.05

Using the Ftest statistic

Ftest = larger sample variance / smaller sample variance

Ftest = s1² / s2² = 1.37² / 0.94² = 1.8769 / 0.8836 = 2.124

The degree of freedom :

Numerator = n - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19

Denominator = n - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19

Pvalue(2.124, 19, 19) = 0.0546

Since ;

Pvalue > α ; WE fail to reject the Null ; Result is not significant

a store sells pencils pens and markers that sells two times as many markers as pencils and three times as many pens as pencils is the store sells a total of 1950 pencils and pens and markers in a week how many of each were sold​

Answers

Answer:

Pencils = 325 ; Pens = 975 ; Markers = 650

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Number of Pencils = x

Number of pens = y

Number of markers = z

2 times as many markers as pencils

z = 2x

3 times as many pens as pencils

y = 3x

x + y + z = 1950

Write z and y in terms of x in the equation :

x + 3x + 2x = 1950

6x = 1950

Divide both sides by 6

6x / 6 = 1950 / 6

x = 325

Number of pencils = 325

Pens = 3 * 325 = 975

Markers = 2 * 325 = 650

Pencils = 325 ; Pens = 975 ; Markers = 650

Hemisphere Volume = (2/3) * PI * radius^3

sphere radius^3 = Hemisphere Volume / ((2/3) PI)

sphere radius^3 = 62,617 / 2.0943951024

sphere radius^3 = 29,897.4152147556

sphere radius = 31.0368674154

sphere diameter = 62.1 cm (rounded to nearest tenth of a centimeters)

Answer:

Answers

Answer:  D) 70

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

Explanation:

Label a new point E at the intersection of the diagonals. The goal is to find angle CEB. Notice how angle AED and angle CEB are vertical angles, so angle AED is also x.

Recall that any rectangle has each diagonal that is the same length, and each diagonal cuts each other in half (aka bisect). This must mean segments DE and AE are the same length, and furthermore, triangle AED is isosceles.

Triangle AED being isosceles then tells us that the base angles ADE and DAE are the same measure (both being 55 in this case).

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

To briefly summarize so far, we have these interior angles of triangle ADE

A = 55D = 55E = x

For any triangle, the three angles always add to 180, so,

A+D+E = 180

55+55+x = 180

110+x = 180

x = 180-110

x = 70
