Answer: a) base = 1 ft b) height = 4 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Set this up as a right triangle where base = x, height = 2x + 2, and hypotenuse (length of the ladder) = 13
Use Pythagorean Theorem to create a quadratic equation, factor, then apply the Zero Product Property to solve for x.
(x)² + (2x + 2)² = 13²
x² + 4x² + 8x + 4 = 169
5x² + 8x - 165 = 0
(5x + 13) (x - 1) = 0
x = -13/5 x = 1
We know that distance cannot be negative so disregard x = -13/5.
The only valid answer is x = 1
base = x --> x = 1
height = 2x + 2 --> 2(1) + 2 = 4
"Find the surface area of the following shapes. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary." Is this correct? (Bold Mikado is my work.)
Answer:
360 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the area of the bottom
10*10 = 100
The find the area of one of the triangular shapes
A = 1/2 bh since it is a triangle
A = 1/2 ( 10)*13 = 65
Since there are 4 triangles ( 1 for each side), multiply by 4
4*65 = 260
Add the areas together
260+100 = 360

Data on the number of work days missed and the annual salary increase for a company’s employees show that, in general, employees who missed more days of work during the year received smaller raises than those who missed fewer days. A detailed analysis shows that the number of days missed explains 60% of the variation in salary increases. What is the correlation between the number of days missed and salary increase?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Correlation describes how strongly pairs of given variablé are related. In this case, a detailed analysis that was carried out shows that the number of days missed by employees explains 60% of the variation in salary increases and also impressed upon this fact that employees who missed more days of work during the year received smaller raises than those who missed fewer days.
From the analysis, we can draw a conclusion that there is a correction between days missed and variation in salary increase and that this type of correction is a negative correlation where an increase in the number of days missed will lead to a decrease in the raises awarded to each employee.
Consider the differential equation4y'' − 4y' + y = 0; ex/2, xex/2.Verify that the functions ex/2 and xex/2 form a fundamental set of solutions of the differential equation on the interval (−[infinity], [infinity]).The functions satisfy the differential equation and are linearly independent since W(ex/2, xex/2) =
Step-by-step explanation:
Let y1 and y2 be (e^x)/2, and (xe^x)/2 respectively.
The Wronskian of them functions be
W = (y1y2' - y1'y2)
y1 = (e^x)/2 = y1'
y2 = (xe^x)/2
y2' = (1/2)(x + 1)e^x
W = (1/4)(x + 1)e^(2x) - (1/4)xe^(2x)
= (1/4)(x + 1 - x)e^(2x)
W = (1/4)e^(2x)
Since the Wronskian ≠ 0, we conclude that functions are linearly independent, and hence, form a set of fundamental solutions.
Answer:
W = (1/4)(x + 1)e^(2x) - (1/4)xe^(2x)
= (1/4)(x + 1 - x)e^(2x)
W = (1/4)e^(2x)
Step-by-step explanation:
A product is introduced to the market. The weekly profit (in dollars) of that product decays exponentially as function of the price that is charged (in dollars) and is given by P ( x ) = 95000 ⋅ e − 0.05 ⋅ x Suppose the price in dollars of that product, x ( t ) , changes over time t (in weeks) as given by x ( t ) = 53 + 0.95 ⋅ t 2 Find the rate that profit changes as a function of time, P ' ( t ) dollars/week How fast is profit changing with respect to time 7 weeks after the introduction. dollars/week
Answer:
1). [tex]P'(t) = (-9025t).e^{-0.05(53+0.95t^2)}[/tex]
2). (-435.36) dollars per week
Step-by-step explanation:
Weekly price decay of the product is represented by the function,
P(x) = [tex]95000.e^{-0.05x}[/tex]
And the price of the product changes over the period of 't' weeks is represented by,
x(t) = [tex]53+0.95t^2[/tex]
Function representing the rate of change in the profit with respect to the time will be represented by,
1). P'(t) = [tex]\frac{dP}{dx}.\frac{dx}{dt}[/tex]
Since, P(x) = [tex]95000.e^{-0.05x}[/tex]
P'(x) = [tex]95000\times (-0.05).e^{-0.05x}[/tex]
= [tex](-4750).e^{-0.05x}[/tex]
Since, x(t) = 53 + 0.95t²
x'(t) = 1.9t
[tex]\frac{dP}{dx}.\frac{dx}{dt}=(-4750).e^{-0.05x}\times (1.9t)[/tex]
By substituting x = 53 + 0.95t²
[tex]\frac{dP}{dx}.\frac{dx}{dt}=(-4750).e^{-0.05(53+0.95t^2)}\times (1.9t)[/tex]
P'(t) = [tex](-9025t).e^{-0.05(53+0.95t^2)}[/tex]
2). For t = 7 weeks,
P'(7) = [tex](-9025\times 7).e^{-0.05(53+0.95(7)^2)}[/tex]
= [tex](-63175).e^{-4.9775}[/tex]
= (-63175)(0.006891)
= (-435.356) dollars per week
≈ (-435.36) dollars per week

if 3x+2y=72 and y=3x, then x whoever solve I give them all my points
Answer:
[tex]x=8[/tex]
[tex]y=24[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+2y=72
If y=3x, we plug it into our equation and get:
3x+2×3x=72
3x+6x=72
9x=72
Divide both sides by 9
x=8
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 2y = 72
Put y as (3x), and solve for x.
3x + 2(3x) = 72
Multiply 2(3x).
3x + 6x = 72
Add like terms 3x and 6x.
9x = 72
Divide 9 into both sides and isolate x.
x = 72/9
x = 8
The value of x is 8.
A test consists of 580 true or false questions. If the student guesses on each question, what is the standard deviation of the number of correct answers? Round the answer to the nearest hundredth.
Answer:
12.04
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the questions are true and false, that is, there are only two answer options, therefore, you have a success probability = 1/2 = 0.5
The standard deviation can be calculated as follows:
Standard Deviation = (n*p* (1-p)] ^ (1/2)
replacing we have:
SD = (290 * (1-0.5)] ^ (1/2) = 12.04
That is, the standard deviation is 12.04

What type of error is present in the underlined
sentence?
Which is the best revision to fix the error?
Answer:
Type of error: Run-on(comma splice).
Best revision to fix it: Adding a semicolon after beginners .
Explanation:
A run-on sentence is described as a sentence in which two independent clauses are joined inappropriately. It could be either comma splice where the two independent clauses are incorrectly linked using a comma or fused sentence when the two clauses run-on without employing appropriate coordinating conjunction or punctuation marks to separate the two ideas.
In the given sentence, it exemplifies a comma splice type of run-on sentence error. To fix this error, a semicolon after 'beginners' can be employed instead of a comma. This will help in connecting the two ideas appropriately where the first idea leads the second. Thus, the final sentence reads as:

Step-by-step explanation:
A biker’s speed is 1.5 times faster than a walker’s. They started simultaneously from the same point and in 1.5 hours the distance between them was 12.5 miles. What are their speeds?
Answer:
Biker = 25 mph
Walker = 16⅔ mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance = rate × time
If x is the walker's speed and y is the biker's speed, then:
1.5 y − 1.5 x = 12.5
y = 1.5 x
Solve the system of equations.
1.5 y − y = 12.5
0.5 y = 12.5
y = 25
x = 16⅔
Engineers want to design passenger seats in commercial aircraft so that they are wide enough to fit 95 percent of adult men. Assume that adult men have hip breadths that are normally distributed with a mean of 14.4 inches and a standard deviation of 1.1 inches. Find the 95th percentile of the hip breadth of adult men. Round your answer to one decimal place; add a trailing zero as needed. The 95th percentile of the hip breadth of adult men is [HipBreadth] inches.
Answer:
[tex]z=1.64<\frac{a-14.4}{1.1}[/tex]
And if we solve for a we got
[tex]a=14.4 +1.64*1.1=16.204[/tex]
The 95th percentile of the hip breadth of adult men is 16.2 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X the random variable that represent the hips breadths of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:
[tex]X \sim N(14.4,1.1)[/tex]
Where [tex]\mu=14.4[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=1.1[/tex]
For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:
[tex]P(X>a)=0.05[/tex] (a)
[tex]P(X<a)=0.95[/tex] (b)
We can find a quantile in the normal standard distribution who accumulates 0.95 of the area on the left and 0.05 of the area on the right it's z=1.64
Using this value we can set up the following equation:
[tex]P(X<a)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{a-\mu}{\sigma})=0.95[/tex]
[tex]P(z<\frac{a-\mu}{\sigma})=0.95[/tex]
And we have:
[tex]z=1.64<\frac{a-14.4}{1.1}[/tex]
And if we solve for a we got
[tex]a=14.4 +1.64*1.1=16.204[/tex]
The 95th percentile of the hip breadth of adult men is 16.2 inches.
Suppose that, in an experimental setting, 100 students are asked to choose between Gamble A and Gamble B, where: Gamble A: The student will receive $5,100 with a 70 percent probability and $200 with a 30 percent probability. Gamble B: The student will receive $5,100 with a 50 percent probability, $200 with a 25 percent probability, and $0 (nothing) with a 25 percent probability. What is the expected value (EV) of Gamble B
Focus on Gamble B only. Multiply each winnings with their corresponding probabilities.
5100*0.50 = 2550
200*0.25 = 50
0*0.25 = 0
Add up those results: 2550+50+0 = 2600
The expected value of gamble B is $2600

24024 are the total number of ways of choosing 4 campsites out of 14.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that there are a total of 14 campsite out of which 4 campsites are to be chosen.
It is a simple example of selection problem.
Number of ways to choose the first campsite = 14
Now, one campsite is chosen, 13 campsites are left.
Therefore,
Number of ways to choose the second campsite = 13
Now, one more campsite is chosen, 12 campsites are left.
Therefore,
Number of ways to choose the third campsite = 12
Now, one more campsite is chosen, 11 campsites are left.
Therefore,
Number of ways to choose the fourth campsite = 11
So, total number of ways for choosing 4 campsites out of 14:
14 [tex]\times[/tex] 13 [tex]\times[/tex] 12 [tex]\times[/tex] 11 = 24024
Hence, answer is 24024.

Approximately 10% of all people are left-handed. If 200 people are randomly selected, what is the expected number of left-handed people? Round to the whole number. Do not use decimals. Answer:
Answer:
N(L) = 20
The expected number of left handed people is 20.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
Percentage of left handed people P(L) = 10%
Total number of selected people N(T) = 200
The Expected number of left handed people N(L) is;
N(L) = Total number of selected people × Percentage of left handed people/100%
N(L) = N(T) × P(L)/100%
Substituting the given values;
N(L) = 200 × 10%/100%
N(L) = 200 × 0.1
N(L) = 20
The expected number of left handed people is 20.
The population of a city has increased by 35% since it was last measured. If the current population is 29,700 , what was the previous population?
Answer:
19305
Step-by-step explanation:
We simply take the percentage of 29700 to find how many people were added.
29700(0.35) = 10395 <== so 10395 people have been added
Subtract it from the current:
28700 - 10395 = 19305 people before.
Solve x^2 + 4x + 8 = 0
Answer:
x = -2 + 2 i or x = -2 - 2 i
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
x^2 + 4 x + 8 = 0
Subtract 8 from both sides:
x^2 + 4 x = -8
Add 4 to both sides:
x^2 + 4 x + 4 = -4
Write the left hand side as a square:
(x + 2)^2 = -4
Take the square root of both sides:
x + 2 = 2 i or x + 2 = -2 i
Subtract 2 from both sides:
x = -2 + 2 i or x + 2 = -2 i
Subtract 2 from both sides:
Answer: x = -2 + 2 i or x = -2 - 2 i

Kenneth had $5. He spent g cents everyday. How much money he left afterone week? (a) Give you answer in cents (b) Give your answer in dollars.
Answer:
answer in cents = (500 - 7g ) cents
answer in dollars = ((500 - 7g)/100 ) dollar
Step-by-step explanation:
Money with Kenneth = $5
we know that 1 dollar = 100 cents
Money with Kenneth in cents= 5*100 = 500 cents
Money spent in 1 day = g cents
Money spent in 1 day in dollar = g /100 dollar
(a) Give you answer in cents
One week has 7 days
money spent in 7 days = Money spent in 1 day*7 = g*7 = 7g cents
Money left with Kenneth after one week= total money Kenneth had in cents - money spent in 7 days = (500 - 7g ) cents
(b) Give you answer in cents dollars
One week has 7 days
money spent in 7 days in dollars = Money spent in 1 day*7 = g/100*7 = 7g/100 cents
Money left with Kenneth after one week= total money Kenneth had in dollars - money spent in 7 days = (5 - 7g/100 ) dollar
= ((500 - 7g)/100 ) dollar
For every 1% increase in
unemployment, there is a 2%
decrease in potential GDP. This
creates a GDP gap. What is the GDP
gap when there is 4.5%
unemployment?
Answer:
The GDP gap is 9 % when there is 4.5 % unemployment.
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement shows a reverse relationship, where an increase in unemployment is following by decrease in potential GDP and can be translated into the following rate:
[tex]r = \frac{2\,\% \,GDP}{1\,\% unemp.}[/tex]
The GDP gap at a given increase in unemployment can be estimated by the following expression:
[tex]\frac{g}{u} = r[/tex]
[tex]g = r\cdot u[/tex]
Where:
[tex]r[/tex] - GDP gap-unemployment increase rate, dimensionless.
[tex]u[/tex] - Increase in unemployment rate, measured in percentage.
[tex]g[/tex] - GDP gap, measured in percentage.
If [tex]r = \frac{2\,\% \,GDP}{1\,\% unemp.}[/tex] and [tex]u = 4.5\,\%\,unemp.[/tex], the GDP gap is:
[tex]g = \left(\frac{2\,\%\,GDP}{1\,\%\,unemp.} \right)\cdot (4.5\,\%\,unemp.)[/tex]
[tex]g = 9\,\%\,GDP[/tex]
The GDP gap is 9 % when there is 4.5 % unemployment.
Brian invests £8300 into his bank account. He receives 1.4% per year compound interest. How much will Brian have after 7 years? Give your answer to the nearest penny where appropriate.
Answer:
The nearest penny will be £9146.6
Step-by-step explanation:
A = P[1 + (r/n)]^(nt)
A = final amount
P = initial principal balance
r = interest rate
n = number of times interest applied per time period
t = number of time periods elapsed
A = 8300 [ 1 + {1.4 / (7*100)}]^(7*7)
A = 8300 [ 1 + {0.002}]^(49)
A= 8300 [ 1.002 ]^(49)
A = 8300 [ 1.102 ]
A = £9146.6
