Answers

Answer:

C. Cheryl accelerated to 65 mph, drove at a constant speed for 5.5 minutes, and then decelerated to 45 mph.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the graph of Cheryl's commute was like the one below.

We see that she started at 0 mph.  

One minute later, she was up to 65 mph, so she had accelerated (increased her speed).

At 6.5 min (5,5 min later) her speed was still 65 mph, so she was driving at a constant speed.

Over the next 2.5 min, her speed dropped to 45 mph, so she was decelerating.

Which of the following are identities?

Answers

Answer:

A. III only

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, an identity is one of the characteristics of algebraic expressions.

Given variable a and b in an algebraic expression, an identity is defined as an equality that remains the same no matter the values that we choose for either variable a or b.

Identity in mathematics makes it very easy to solve algebraic expressions. The two sides of an identity in an algebra can easily be exchanged for each other.

In the above question, we are given 3 Options.

I) 3(5 + 2x) = 15 + 6x

II) y = x + 3

III) (x² - y²) = (x + y) (x - y)

Option I) 3(5 + 2x) = 15 + 6x

Is showing distributive property in mathematics.

Distributive property is :

a(b + c) = ab + ac

Option I is not an identity , therefore it is wrong.

Option II) y = x + 3 is just an algebraic expression.

Only Option III is an identity. This is because it follows the rule of

(a² - b²) = (a + b) (a - b)

We can prove and confirm this be solving the algebraic expression

(x + y) (x - y)

We expand the bracket

x² - xy +xy - y²

x² - y²

Therefore, option A is the correct option.

(NEED HELP ASAP)Determine whether the situation calls for a survey, an observational study, or an experiment. You want to find new car buyers' opinions on the most important options. Question 7 options: survey observational study experiment

Answers

Answer: The answer is "experiment."

Step-by-step explanation:

This procedure is being used in order to validate a hypothesis, particularly in a research study. In the situation above, you have to validate whether a new reading program can increase reading comprehension or not.

The experiment consists of independent, dependent, and controlled variables. The independent variables are the ones being changed by the researcher, while the dependent variables tell whether the changes in the independent variable is significant. The controlled variables are the ones that are constant.

The dependent variable above is reading comprehension, while the new reading program is the independent variable. Examples of controlled variables are the ages of the participants. The age directly affects the reading comprehension, thus it has to be considered.

HELP PLEASE!!! I need your guys help on this question.

Answers

Answer:

Area of a trapezium = 1/2(a+b)×h

where a and b are parallel sides of the trapezium

h is the height

First question

We must first find the height of the trapezium using Pythagoras theorem

That's

h² = 8² -3²

h =√ 64 - 9

h = √ 55m

a = 7m

b = 10+3 = 13m

Area of the trapezoid = 1/2(7+13)×√55

= 1/2×20×√55

= 74.16

= 74m² to the nearest tenth

Second question

We use sine to find the height

sin30° = h/12

h = 12 sin 30°

h = 6 in

Let the other half of the parallel side be x

To find the other half of the parallel side we use Pythagoras theorem

That's

x² = 12²- 6²

x = √144-36

x = √108

x = 6√3 in

So for this trapezoid

a = 9 in

b = (9 + 6√3) in

h = 6 in

Area of the trapezoid = 1/2(9 + 9+6√3) × 6

= 1/2(18+6√3)×6

= 85.176 in²

= 85 in² to the nearest tenth

Hope this helps you

Answer:

The first (left) trapezoid's area is [tex]10\sqrt{55}[/tex]m or ≈ 74.2m²

The second (right) trapezoid's area is [tex]54 +18\sqrt{3}[/tex] or ≈ 85.2 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

First trapezoid (left):

Because the first trapezoid is a normal trapezoid, we can use the equation [tex]A = \frac{a+ b}{2} * h[/tex] Where a is equal to one base length and b is equal to the other base length and h is the height of the trapezoid.

a = 7

b = 13

h = [tex]\sqrt{55}[/tex]   ([tex]3^{2}+h^{2} = 8^{2}[/tex])

Plug into the equation:

[tex]A = \frac{7+13}{2} *\sqrt{55}[/tex]

A = [tex]10\sqrt{55}[/tex] or ≈74.2m²

Second trapezoid (right):

Not a normal trapezoid (split into a triangle and a square)

Let's solve for the triangle first:

using [tex]sin(30) = \frac{x}{12}[/tex] to find the right-hand side of the triangle we get x = 6

because this is a 30 60 triangle, the last side has to be [tex]6\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Now we can calculate the area of the figure:

Triangle is [tex]\frac{1}{2} * 6 * 6\sqrt{3} = 18\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Rectangle is 6 * 9 = 54

Area = [tex]54 +18\sqrt{3}[/tex] or ≈ 85.2 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Process of elimination. None of the others make sense.

Answer:

x = 2 or x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

-x^2 - 2 x + 8 = 0

Multiply both sides by -1:

x^2 + 2 x - 8 = 0

Add 8 to both sides:

x^2 + 2 x = 8

Add 1 to both sides:

x^2 + 2 x + 1 = 9

Write the left hand side as a square:

(x + 1)^2 = 9

Take the square root of both sides:

x + 1 = 3 or x + 1 = -3

Subtract 1 from both sides:

x = 2 or x + 1 = -3

Subtract 1 from both sides:

Answer: x = 2 or x = -4

A square with area 4 is inscribed in a square with area 5, with one vertex of the smaller square on each side of the larger square. A vertex of the smaller square divides a side of the larger square into two segments, one of length a and the other of length b. What is the value of ab?

Answers

Answer:

ab = 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of the large square have length √5 while the sides of the small one have sides of length 2.

Each corner has a right triangle with legs of length a and b and hypotenuse 2.

So we have the system

a + b = √5

a^2 + b^2 = 2^2 = 4

Using the identity   a^2 + b^2 =  (a + b)^2 - 2ab:

4 = (√5)^2 - 2ab

4 = 5 - 2ab

2ab = 5 - 4 = 1

ab = 1/2.

Answers

Answer:

y = (-1/2)x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The line y = 2x - 6 has a slope of 2 and so any line perpendicular to it has a slope which is the negative reciprocal of 2:  -1/2.

If this perpendicular line passes through (0, -3), then the slope-intercept equation y = mx + b becomes -3 = (-1/2)(0) + b, or -3 = b, and the desired

equation is

y = 70

Step-by-step explanation:

By using the vertical angles theorem we know that x+ y +10 = 90, also simplified to x + y = 80

and 2x + y = 90

By using the substitution method on x + y = 80, it will be y = -x + 80

When you put into the equation 2x + y = 90 you will get 2x -x +80 = 90

Then it will simplify to x = 10

After that plug 10 into x + y = 80 to 10 + y = 80 and get y = 70

Given the equation A=250(1.1)^t, you can determine that the interest is compounded annually and the interest rate is 10%. Suppose the interest rate were to change to being compounded quarterly. Rewrite the equation to find the new interest rate that would keep A and P the same. What is the approximate new interest rate?
Convert your answer to a percentage, round it to the nearest tenth, and enter it in the space provided, like this: 42.53%

Answers

Answer: 2.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the compounded interest formula:  

A = P (1 + r/n) nt  

Where:  

A = Future value of investment (principal + interest)  

P = Principal Amount  

r = Nominal Interest Rate (decimal form, 10/100= 0.1)  

n= number of compounding periods in each year (365)  

Replacing with the values given  

A=250(1+0.1/1)^t/1

A=250(1.1)^t

For a interest compounded annually, n=1, compounded quarterly n= 4 (4quarters in a year )

Interest rate 0.1 /4 = 0.025= 2.5%

Does anyone know how to solve this question. Coach kunal stacks all of the tennis balls in a square pyramid. The number of tennis balls, P(n), in n layers of the square pyramid is given by P(n) = P(n - 1) + n^2. Which could not be the number of tennis balls Coach Kunal has? A. 30 B. 5 C. 14 D. 9

Answers

Answer:

D. 9

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are given the following information:

The number of tennis balls represented by P(n), in n layers of the square pyramid is given as

P(n) = P(n - 1) + n²

In other to solve for n, we would be taking some values for n

Step 1

Let's take the first layer,

n is represented by 1

n = 1

P(1) = P(1 - 1) + 1²

P(1) = 1 tennis ball.

Step 2

Let's take the second layer

n is represented by 2

P(2) = P(2 - 1) + 2²

P(2) = P(1) + 2²

Note that: P(1) above = 1

P(2) = 1 + 2²

P(2) = 5 tennis balls

Step 3

Let's take the third layer

n is represented by 3

P(3) = P(3 - 1) + 3²

P(3) = P(3 - 1) + 3²

P(3) = P(2) + 3²

Note that: P(2) above = 5

P(3) = 5 + 3²

P(3) = 14 tennis balls

Step 4

Let's take the fourth layer

n is represented by 4

P(4) = P(4 - 1) + 4²

P(3) = P(4 - 1) + 4²

P(3) = P(3) + 4²

Note that: P(3) above = 14

P(3) = 14 + 4²

P(3) = 30 tennis balls

We can continue this process, on and on

From the above solution for the number of the tennis balls in first four layers will be: 1, 5, 14, 30,

Hence, the number of tennis balls that Coach Kunal could not have is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets start by defining the numbers in the equation.

This  equation is in slope-intercept form meaning that it is y=mx+b or y = b+mx they are both the same

In slope-intercept form,

m = slope or rateand b = y-intercept

Th equation is y=400+32x so now we know

b=400and m=32

For the first question the change per minute is the rate so it is 32.

For the second question the starting amount is the same as the y-intercept so it is 400.

This equation looks really complicted, but it's actually much easier when you break it down! First, your going to multiply the fraction 3/2 by 6 - since one is a fraction, youre going to find the GCF, or Greatest Common Factor, and reduce it. The GCF in this equation is 2, so we eliminate the two from the fraction (making it just 3) and divide 6 by 2 (getting 3). Thus, we are left with (x^3)^3 -> 3 x 3 = 9. So we are left with x^9.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of tennis balls, P(n) , in n layers of the square pyramid is given. by: P(n) = P(n - 1) + n ^ 2As the stack of the tennis balls is in shape of a square pyramid, that means in the top layer, there will be one ball. So, P(1) = 1Now, if n = 2 , then P(2)=P(2 - 1)+ (2) ^ 2 = P(1) + 4 = 1 + 4 = 5If n = 3 , then P(3)=P(3 - 1)+ (3) ^ 2 = P(2) + 9 = 5 + 9 = 1414If n = 4 then P(4)=P(4 - 1)+ (4) ^ 2 = P(3) + 16 = 14 + 16 = 3014If n = 4 then P(4)=P(4 - 1)+ (4) ^ 2 = P(3) + 16 = 14 + 16 = 30That means, the number of tennis balls from the top layer will be: 1, 5, 14, 30,14If n = 4 then P(4)=P(4 - 1)+ (4) ^ 2 = P(3) + 16 = 14 + 16 = 30That means, the number of tennis balls from the top layer will be: 1, 5, 14, 30,So, the number of tennis balls that Coach Kunal could not have is 9.
