The given expression 3x2 -11(2y+1)+4 is a polynomial expression with two variables, x and y. It can be simplified by distributing the -11 to the terms inside the parentheses and combining like terms:

3x2 -11(2y+1)+4 = 3x2 -22y -11 +4

= 3x2 -22y -7

Therefore, the statement "the expression is a polynomial with two variables" is true, while the statements "the expression is in simplest form" and "the expression has a constant term of 11" are false.

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) for All Urban Consumers grew by 9.1%. The all items index rose 9.1%, the largest annual increase since the year that ended in November 1981.

A consumer price index can be defined as a measure of a market basket of goods and services that households have purchased at a weighted average price. The measured CPI fluctuates(differs) to reflect changes in prices over time.

The CPI is one of the most widely(popularly) used indicators of inflation and deflation.

[tex]Annual\ CPI = \frac{Value\ of Basket\ in \ Current \Year}{Value\ of Basket\ in \ Prior\ Year} *100[/tex]

[tex]Inflation\ Rate = \frac{New \ CPI - Prior\ CPI}{Prior\ CPI} *100[/tex]

It is one of the most used methods for measuring inflation and reveals the state and trajectory of the economy.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the worker drove a total of 134 miles on Monday, and received $32.13 for the work-related miles, then we can assume that the work-related miles pay rate is constant, and calculate the total pay for all the miles:

Total pay for all miles = Total miles * Pay rate per mile

Since the worker received $32.13 for the work-related miles, and we assume a constant pay rate, we can find the pay rate per mile:

Pay rate per mile = Total pay for all miles / Total miles

= $32.13 / Total work-related miles

Now we can use this pay rate per mile to calculate the percentage of work-related miles:

Percentage of work-related miles = (Pay for work-related miles / Pay rate per mile) / Total miles * 100

Plugging in the given values, we get:

Percentage of work-related miles = (32.13 / (134 - 32.13)) / (134) * 100

= 0.2874 * 100

= 28.74%

Therefore, approximately 28.74% of the worker's total miles driven on Monday were work-related.

Answer:-225

Step-by-step explanation:The arithmetic series is given by:

a1 = -1, d=-2, n = 15

where a1 is the first term, d is the common difference, and n is the number of terms.

To evaluate this series, we can use the formula for the sum of an arithmetic series:

Sn = n/2 * [2a1 + (n-1)d]

where Sn is the sum of the first n terms.

Substituting the given values, we get:

S15 = 15/2 * [2(-1) + (15-1)(-2)]

= 15/2 * [-2 - 28]

= 15/2 * (-30)

= -225

Therefore, the sum of the first 15 terms of the arithmetic series with a1 = -1, d=-2 is -225.

The first student Z-score= 1.31, the second student= -0.82, the third student = 2.35, the fourth student = -0.37. None of these scores are unusual.

In statistics, a Z-score (also known as a standard score) is a measure of how many standard deviations a data point is from the mean of a population or sample. The Z-score is calculated by subtracting the mean from the data point and then dividing by the standard deviation.

A Z-score of 0 indicates that the data point is equal to the mean, while positive Z-scores indicate that the data point is above the mean and negative Z-scores indicate that the data point is below the mean.

Z-scores are often used in statistics to standardize data so that it can be compared across different populations or samples. Z-scores can also be used to identify outliers, which are data points that are unusually far from the mean and may skew the analysis of the data.

To find the z-score for each student, we use the formula:

z = (x - μ) / σ

where x is the student's score, μ is the mean test score, and σ is the standard deviation.

For the first student with a score of 1940:

z = (1940 - 1534) / 310

z = 1.31

For the second student with a score of 1280:

z = (1280 - 1534) / 310

z = -0.82

For the third student with a score of 2260:

z = (2260 - 1534) / 310

z = 2.35

For the fourth student with a score of 1420:

z = (1420 - 1534) / 310

z = -0.37

To determine if any of these values are unusual, we can use the rule of thumb that considers any z-score greater than 3 or less than -3 to be unusual.

None of the z-scores calculated above are greater than 3 or less than -3, so we can conclude that none of these scores are unusual.

Megan's biking speed was 6.4 mph and her jogging speed was 1.6 mph

A variable is a quantity that may change within the context of a mathematical problem.

Let's use the following variables to represent the unknown speed :

We know that Megan biked for a certain amount of time, and then jogged for one hour longer. Let's use the variable t to represent Megan's biking time, in hours. Then her jogging time is t + 1 hour.

We can use the formula:

distance = rate x time

To create two equations based on the given information.

For the biking distance of 10 miles, we have:

10 = v_bike * t

For the jogging distance of 8 miles, we have:

8 = v_jog * (t + 1)

We also know that Megan's biking speed was 4 times her jogging speed, so we have:

v_bike = 4 * v_jog

We can substitute this equation into the first equation to get:

10 = 4 * v_jog * t

Simplifying this equation, we get:

t = 2.5 * v_jog

We can substitute this equation into the second equation to get:

8 = v_jog * (2.5 * v_jog + 1)

Simplifying this equation, we get:

8 = 2.5 * v_jog^2 + v_jog

Rearranging the terms, we get:

2.5 * v_jog^2 + v_jog - 8 = 0

We can solve this quadratic equation using the quadratic formula:

Finally, we can use the equation v_bike = 4 * v_jog to find Megan's biking speed:

v_bike = 4 * 1.6 mph = 6.4 mph

Therefore, Megan's biking speed was 6.4 mph and her jogging speed was 1.6 mph

An insurance company's anticipated total profit from a single of these policies is $0.08.

Describe insurance. Insurance is a tool for risk management. You acquire security against unforeseen financial losses when you purchase insurance. If something terrible occurs to you, the insurance company compensates you or someone else of your choosing.

The expected net gain can be calculated as:

E(X) = P(Claim) × Net gain (Claim) + P(No claim) × Net gain (No claim)

P(Claim) = 1/500

P(No claim) = 1 - P(Claim) = 499/500

Net gain (Claim) = -$4960 + $5000 = $40

Net gain (No claim) = $40 - $40 = $0

Therefore,

E(X) = (1/500) × $40 + (499/500) × $0

E(X) = $0.08

The area of triangle PYR, obtained using the formula for the area of a triangle; A = (1/2)·a·b·sin(C), is about 87.85 square units

The area of a triangle is the product of half multiplied by the base length and the height of the triangle. The height of the triangle is the length of a side of the triangle multiplied by the sine of the included angle between two sides of the triangle.

The dimensions in the triangle indicates that we get;

Length of the side PQ = 36

Length of the side PR = 22

PQ = QM + MP (Segment addition postulate)

MQ ≅ MP (Definition of bisected segment PQ)

MQ = MP (Definition of congruent segments)

PQ = MP + MP (Substitution property)

PQ = 2 × MP

PQ = 36

36 = 2 × MP

2 × MP = 36

MP = 36/2 = 18

MP = 18

Length of the segment, MY = 8

The Pythagorean Theorem indicates that we get;

PY = √(18² + 8²) = 2·√(97)

∠MPY = arctan(8/18) ≈ 23.92°

Therefore; ∠YPR ≈ 23.92°

The area, A, of the triangle PYR can be obtained from the formula;

A = (1/2)·a·b·sin(C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L be the weight of a large box, and S be the weight of a small box.

L + S = 70

50L + 60S = 3800

We change the first equation into the form of L, and we get:

L = 70 - S

And we plugin L = 70 - S into the second equation.

  50(70 - S) + 60S = 3800

3500 - 50S + 60S = 3800

          3500 + 10S = 3800

         -3500             -3500

                       10S = 300

                          S = 30

 L + S = 70

L + 30 = 70

  - 30     - 30

       L = 40

The arc angle QPS is 258 degrees.

A cyclic quadrilateral is a four sided shape(quadrilateral) that can be inscribed into a circle. The sum of angles in a cyclic quadrilateral is 360 degrees.

The opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral have a total of. 180 ° . In other words, the opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is supplementary angles.

Therefore,

m∠P = 4x - 1

m∠R = 12x - 27

Hence,

4x - 1 + 12x - 27 = 180

16x - 28 = 180

16x = 180 + 28

16x = 208

x = 208 / 16

x = 13

m∠R = 12(13) - 27

m∠R = 156 - 27

m∠R = 129 degrees

Therefore,

m∠R = 1 / 2 (QPS)

129 = 1 / 2 × x

x = 129 ×2

x = 258 degrees

Answer:

hole at (- 1, - 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

If f(x) has terms that cancel , on the numerator/ denominator then a discontinuity  corresponding to that factor is removable and there is a hole.

f(x) = [tex]\frac{x^2-2x-3}{x^2+3x+2}[/tex] ← factor numerator and denominator

    = [tex]\frac{(x-3)(x+1)}{(x+2)(x+1)}[/tex] ← cancel (x + 1) on numerator/ denominator

   = [tex]\frac{x-3}{x+2}[/tex]

this indicates that x + 1 = 0 ( or x = - 1) is a removable discontinuity and the graph has a hole in it.

substitute x = - 1 into the remaining f(x) for y- coordinate of hole

f(- 1) = [tex]\frac{-1-3}{-1+2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-4}{1}[/tex] = - 4

coordinates of hole are (- 1, - 4 )

Answer:

Yes, this function has one hole

This occurs at [tex](-1, -4)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition of hole
A hole on a rational function represents the fact that the function approaches the point, but is not actually defined on that precise x value.

Given function
[tex]f(x) = \dfrac{x^2-2x\:-3}{x^2+\:3x\:+\:2}\\[/tex]

Factor the numerator:
[tex]x^2 - 2x - 3 = (x+1)(x - 3)[/tex]

Factor the denominator:
[tex]x^2+\:3x\:+\:2 = (x + 1)(x + 2)[/tex]

Hence

[tex]\begin{aligned}f(x) & = \dfrac{x^2-2x\:-3}{x^2+\:3x\:+\:2}\\\\& = \dfrac{ (x+1)(x - 3)}{(x + 1)(x + 2)}\\\\ &= \dfrac{x - 3}{x+2} \end{aligned}[/tex]

The common factor is   [tex](x + 1)[/tex]

Set this = 0 to find the hole:
[tex]x + 1 = 0 = > x = -1[/tex]

So at[tex]x = -1[/tex] there is a hole.

Substitute this value of x in the factored function to get the y value for the hole

We have
[tex]f(x) = \dfrac{x - 3}{x+2}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}f(2) &= \dfrac{-1 - 3}{-1 + 2}\\& = \dfrac{-4}{1}\\&= -4\end{aligned}[/tex]

So the hole occurs at   [tex](-1, -4)[/tex]
