a) sometimes directly and sometimes inversely b) directly
c) inversely d) none of these
ОА
Ов
Ос

Answers

Answer:

c) inversely

Step-by-step explanation:

In Mathematics an inverse relationship can be defined as a relationship between two variables, in which an increase in the value of one variable leads to a decrease in the value of the other variable i.e as the value of one variable becomes large, the value of the other variable becomes small.

Mathematically, an inverse relationship is given by the formula;

A = K/B

Where;

A and B are the variables.

K is the constant of proportionality.

Hence, if an increase in one quantity brings about a corresponding decrease in the other and vice versa, then the two quantities vary inversely.

The diagram below shows some measurements taken from a new bridge. How long is the bridge?

 feet   


Answers

Answer:

1,737.3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume the length of the bridge consists of 2 right triangles as shown in the diagram. Use pythagorean theorem to find the other missing leg of each right triangle.

Let the missing leg for each triangle be x and y respectively.

Length of bridge = x + y

✔️x = √(1115² - 860²) = √503,625

x ≈ 709.7 (nearest tenth)

✔️y = √(1340² - 860²)

y ≈ 1,027.6 (nearest tenth)

✔️ Length of bridge = 709.7 + 1,027.6 = 1,737.3 ft

A real estate agent has 17 properties that she shows. She feels that there is a 50% chance of selling any one property during a week. The chance of selling any one property is independent of selling another property. Compute the probability of selling less than 3 properties in one week. Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

0.0011 = 0.11% probability of selling less than 3 properties in one week.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each property, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are sold, or they are not. The chance of selling any one property is independent of selling another property. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

A real estate agent has 17 properties that she shows.

This means that [tex]n = 17[/tex]

She feels that there is a 50% chance of selling any one property during a week.

This means that [tex]p = 0.5[/tex]

Compute the probability of selling less than 3 properties in one week.

This is

[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{17,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{17} \approx 0[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{17,1}.(0.5)^{1}.(0.5)^{16} = 0.0001[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{17,2}.(0.5)^{2}.(0.5)^{15} = 0.0010[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0 + 0.0001 + 0.0010 = 0.0011[/tex]

0.0011 = 0.11% probability of selling less than 3 properties in one week.

Answer:

Revenue = 1020x  +  118y

Step-by-step explanation:

Revenue = 1020x  +  118y

This is an important question to understand. You will use it very shortly when you try and solve 2 equations with 2 unknown. Just to show you what that means, Suppose the revenue is

Revenue = 5808

and 11 items total were sold

x + y = 11                          Total number of items sold

1020x + 118y= 5808        Revenue

is the kind of problem you will be solving.

Step-by-step explanation:

a computer sell for $1020

x computer will sell for $1020x

a hard drive sell for $118

y hard drive will sell for $118y

The revenue equals $1020x + $118y

Tanisha is graphing the function f(x) = 25(Three-fifths)x. She begins by plotting the point (1, 15). Which could be the next point she plots on the graph?

(2, 9)
(2, –10)
(2, 14Two-fifths)
(2, 5)

Answers

The answer would be 2,9

The next point she plots on the graph is (2,9)

How to determine the next point?

The function is given as:

f(x) = 25(Three-fifths)^x

Rewrite properly as:

f(x) = 25(3/5)^x

The first point has an x value of 1.

So, the next would be x = 2

This gives

f(2) = 25(3/5)^2

Evaluate the product

f(2) = 9

So, we have:

(2, 9)

Hence, the next point she plots on the graph is (2,9)
