A tree grows exactly one half meter in height per year. The tree is currently 8 meters tall. If someone hammers a nail into the tree at a height of exactly 2 meters, how high will the nail be after 12 years of growth

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]a= 8m[/tex] --- initial

[tex]r = \frac{1}{2}m/year[/tex] --- rate

[tex]t = 12\ yrs[/tex]

[tex]Nail = 2m[/tex]

Required

The height of the nail after 12 years

The top of the tree will continue growing at the given rate, however, the height of the nail will remain unchanged.

This is so because when trees grow, they grow from the top; i.e. the heights are increased at the top while the bottom remains unchanged.

Hence, the height of the nail after 12 years in 2m

y-4/x+3 = -3

y-4 = -3(x+3)

y-4=-3x-9

y+3x +9-4=

y+3x+5=0

Answer:

y = -3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

-3, 4 and 1, -8

1 - -3 = 4

-8 - 4 = -12

[tex]\frac{-12}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-3}{1}[/tex] = -3

gradient/slope = -3

now substituting in the point -3, 4 to find the y intercept:

Which equation is the inverse of y = x2 + 16?
O y = x2 – 16
y=+√x - 16
y=+NX-16
y = x2 - 4

Answers

Hi there!

[tex]\large\boxed{y = \pm \sqrt{x - 16}}[/tex]

To solve for the inverse, swap the x and y variables:

x = y² + 16

Isolate for y by subtracting both sides by 16:

x - 16 = y²

Square root both sides:

√(x - 16) = y

Add the plus/minus sign:

y = ±√(x - 16)

Answer:

[tex]d = 0.112* 10^3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]h = 8.4 * 10^3[/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{\frac{3h}{2}}[/tex]

Required

Find d

We have:

[tex]d = \sqrt{\frac{3h}{2}}[/tex]

Substitute: [tex]h = 8.4 * 10^3[/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{\frac{3*8.4 * 10^3}{2}}[/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{\frac{25.2 * 10^3}{2}}[/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{12.6 * 10^3}[/tex]

Express as:

[tex]d = \sqrt{1.26 *10* 10^3}[/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{1.26 *10^4}[/tex]

Split

[tex]d = \sqrt{1.26} *\sqrt{10^4}[/tex]

[tex]d = 1.122* 10^2[/tex]

To write in form of: [tex]a * 10^b[/tex]

The value of a must be: [tex]0 \le a \le 1[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]d = 0.1122* 10 * 10^2[/tex]

[tex]d = 0.1122* 10^3[/tex]

Approximate

[tex]d = 0.112* 10^3[/tex]

A rectangular garden is to be constructed using a rock wall as one side of the garden and wire fencing for the other three sides. Given that there are 56 meters of fencing available, determine the dimensions that would create the garden of maximum area. You may enter an exact answer or round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

x  =  28 m

y  =  14  m

A(max)  =  392 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangular garden    A (r ) =  x * y

Let´s call x the side of the rectangle to be constructed with a rock wall, then only one x side of the rectangle will be fencing with wire.

the perimeter of the rectangle is  p  =  2*x  +  2*y    ( but in this particular case only one side x will be fencing with wire

56   =   x    +  2*y      56   -  2*y  =  x

A(r)   =  ( 56  -  2*y ) * y

A(y ) =  56*y  -  2*y²

Tacking derivatives on both sides of the equation we get:

A´(y )  =  56  - 4 * y        A´(y) = 0     56  -  4*y  =  0    4*y  =  56

y =  14 m

and x  =  56  - 2*y    =  56 - 28  = 28 m

Then dimensions of the garden:

x  =  28 m

y  =  14  m

A(max)  =  392 m²

How do we know that the area we found is a local maximum??

We find the second derivative

A´´(y)  = - 4     A´´(y)  <  0   then the function A(y) has a local maximum at y = 14 m

BC represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.

To determine tan m∠A, we would apply the tangent trigonometric ratio.

Tan θ = opposite side/adjacent side. Therefore,

Substitute (1) in (2)

2x - 7(2x + 16) = - 64

2x - 14x - 112 = - 64

-12x = -64 + 112

-12x = 48

15                                             20

25                                            let be x

it is in indirect proportion

15/25=x/20

do cross multiplication

therefore ot will take 12 day to complete the same wall by 25 men.  

450 high school freshmen were randomly selected for a national survey. Among survey participants, the mean grade-point average (GPA) was 2.96, and the standard deviation was 0.21. What is the margin of error, assuming a 70% confidence level, to the nearest hundredth

Answers

Answer:

The margin of error is of 0.01.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.7}{2} = 0.15[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.15 = 0.85[/tex], so Z = 1.037.

The margin of error is of:

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

Standard deviation was 0.21.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 0.21[/tex]

Sample of 450:

This means that [tex]n = 450[/tex]

What is the margin of error, assuming a 70% confidence level, to the nearest hundredth?

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]M = 1.037\frac{0.21}{\sqrt{450}}[/tex]

[tex]M = 0.01[/tex]

The margin of error is of 0.01.

left over when he’s finished making the recipe?

Answer for question number 8 is 300 gms.
Can someone help to solve question number 9 in step by step please?

Answers

Answer:

600 butter : 2000 flour : 200 sugar : 400 currants = 72 cakes

120 cakes could be made with 1 kg of butter

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, 72 cakes = 6 dozen cakes

( since 12 cake = 1 dozen cake ).

a. First calculate quantity of each ingredient per dozen by dividing each by 1.5 (18/12).

• Butter - 150/1.5 = 100 g per dozen

For 6 dozen :

100g x 6 = 600 g

• Flour - 500/1.5 = 333.33 g per dozen

For 6 dozen :

333.33 g x 6 = 2000 g

• Sugar - 50/1.5 = 33.33 g per dozen

For 6 dozen :

33.33 x 6 = 200 g

• Currants - 100/1.5 = 66.67 g per dozen

For 6 dozen :

66.67 x 6 = 400 g

b. It is given that,

150g butter is required to make = 18 cakes

Then by using unitary method, we get,

1 g of butter is required to make = 18/150 cakes

Since, 1 Kg = 1000 g

Then,

1000 g of butter is required to make = (18/150) × 1000

= 120 cakes

Hence, with 1 kg of butter 120 whole cakes can be made.

Hope this answer helps you :)

Have a great day :)

He will have 32 g of butter left over.
