Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf \ \ \ a = 1 \ \ \ }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

saying that [tex]x-\sqrt{a}[/tex] is a factor means that [tex]\sqrt{a}[/tex] is a zero which means

[tex]2(\sqrt{a})^4-2a^2(\sqrt{a})^2-3*\sqrt{a}+2a^3-2a^2+3=0\\\\<=> 2a^2-2a^3-3*\sqrt{a}+2a^3-2a^2+3=0\\\\<=>3-3*\sqrt{a}=0\\\\<=>\sqrt{a}=\dfrac{3}{3}=1\\\\<=> a = 1[/tex]

so the solution is a = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

From the attached, we understand that:

The dimension of rectangle A is 2x by 2x

The dimension of rectangle B is x by 2x

Area of rectangle is calculated as thus;

[tex]Area = Length * Breadth[/tex]

Area of Rectangle A

[tex]Area = 2x * 2x[/tex]

Convert 9 feet to inches

Answers

Answer: 108 inches

Step-by-step explanation: The answer would be 108 inches because if you multiply the number that coverts a inch into a foot it would be 12 because 12 inches is equivalent to 1 foot. So you know that 1 foot is equal to 12 inches so you multiply the number of feet by 12. You expression is 9 times 12 and after you multiply the two numbers you get 108 inches.

Answer: 108 inches

Step-by-step explanation: To convert 9 feet into inches, we use the conversion factor for feet and inches which is 12 inches = 1 foot.

Next, notice that we're going from a

larger unit, feet, to a smaller unit, inches.

When we go from a larger unit to a smaller unit, we

multiply 9 by the conversion factor, 12 to get 108.

So 9 feet = 108 inches.

If his total caloric intake from meals was ​, determine his calories for each meal.

Answers

Answer:

let the number of calories from lunch be called L. As such, breakfast is then L + 128, and dinner is 2L - 400. We can then sum the three meals and equate it to the total caloric intake, the known value of 1932.

  So: 1932 = L + L + 128 + 2L - 400 = 4L - 272.

  Lunch = 551

Breakfast = 551 + 128 = 679

Dinner = 2*551 - 400 = 702

Uncle Louise is at least 1 inch shorter than Miriam, and at least 2 inches taller than Jeffery. Jeffery's height is 64 inches. Miriam is not more than 5 inches taller than Jeffery. Which answer could be Uncle Louise's height? Please answer!!!

Answers

Answer:

67 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the height of Louise 'L', the height of Miriam 'M' and the height of Jeffery 'J'.

Then, we can write the following equations and inequations:

[tex]L \leq M - 1[/tex]

[tex]L \geq J + 2[/tex]

[tex]J = 64[/tex]

[tex]M \leq J + 5[/tex]

Substituting J in the second and four inequations, we have:

[tex]L \geq 66[/tex]

[tex]M \leq 69[/tex]

If we assume the maximum value for M, in the first inequation we have that:

[tex]L \leq 68[/tex]

So the height of Uncle Louise is greater than or equal 66, and lesser than or equal 68, so his height could be 67 inches for example.

Find the lateral area of the prism. Use the 10 by 6 rectangle as the base.
5 ft
6 ft
9 ft

Answers

Answer:

lateral area =150 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

lateral area =(perimieter of prism base) times the height of the prism

so, the perimeter of the base is 9 ft*2 + 6 ft*2 which equals 30 ft

then you multiply the perimeter of the base by the height of the prism

so, height of prism =5 ft, so 5 ft times 30 ft =150 feet

therefor, the lateral area of the prism = 150 feet squared

Find the value of x. Then find the measure of each labeled angle. x = 37.5; the labeled angles are 77.5º and 102.5º. x = 37.5; the labeled angles are 37.5º and 142.5º. x = 15; both labeled angles are 55º. x = 25; both labeled angles are 65º.

Answers

Answer:

x = 25; both labeled angles are 65º

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x, recall that the angles formed by two parallel lines on the same line are equal if they correspond to each other.

In the figure given above, we have two parallel line given. The angle formed by each parallel line is corresponding to the other. Therefore, both angles formed are equal.

Thus,

(3x - 10)° = (x + 40)°

Solve for x

3x - 10 = x + 40

Subtract x from both sides

3x - 10 - x = x + 40 - x

3x - x - 10 = x - x + 40

2x - 10 = 40

Add 10 to both sides

2x - 10 + 10 = 40 + 10

2x = 50

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 50/2

x = 25

*Plug in the value of x to find the measure of each labelled angles:

(3x - 10)° = 3(25) - 10 = 75 - 10 = 65°

(x + 40)° = 25 + 40 = 65°

Determine the function which corresponds to the given graph. (3 points) a natural logarithmic function crossing the x axis at negative two and y axis at one.
The asymptote is x = -3.





Answers

Answer:

[tex]y =log_e(x+3)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the graph corresponds to a natural logarithmic function.

That means, the function [tex]y[/tex] has a natural log (Log with base [tex]e[/tex]) of some terms of x.

It is given that asymptote of given curve is at [tex]x= -3[/tex]. i.e. when we put value

[tex]x= -3[/tex], the function will have a value [tex]y \rightarrow \infty[/tex].

We know that natural log of 0 is not defined.

So, we can say the following:

[tex]log_e(x+a)[/tex] is not defined at [tex]x= -3[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow x+a =0\\\Rightarrow x = -a[/tex]

i.e. [tex]x =-a[/tex] is the point where [tex]y \rightarrow \infty[/tex]

a = 3

Hence, the function becomes:

[tex]y =log_e(x+3)[/tex]

Also, given that the graph crosses x axis at x = -2

When we put x = -2 in the function:

[tex]y =log_e(-2+3) = log_e(1) = 0[/tex]

And y axis at 1.

Put x = 0, we should get y = 1

[tex]y =log_e(0+3) = log_e(3) \approx 1[/tex]

So, the function is: [tex]y =log_e(x+3)[/tex]

Suppose that the number of square feet per house are normally distributed with an unknown mean and standard deviation.

The EBM, margin of error, for a 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t. distribution is 66.96.2. Find a 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution.

Answers

Answer:

1. The margin of error is of 66.96 square feet.

2. The 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution is between 1433.04 square feet and 1566.96 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 22 - 1 = 21

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 21 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.08

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.08*\frac{151}{\sqrt{22}} = 66.96[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample.

The margin of error is of 66.96 square feet.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 1500 - 66.96 = 1433.04 square feet

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 1500 + 314 = 1566.96 square feet

The 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution is between 1433.04 square feet and 1566.96 square feet

In a certain section of Southern California, the distribution of monthly rent for a one-bedroom apartment has a mean of $2,075 and a standard deviation of $300. The distribution of the monthly rent does not follow the normal distribution. In fact, it is positively skewed. What is the probability of selecting a sample of 55 one-bedroom apartments and finding the mean to be at least $1,985 per month

Answers

Answer:

Probability is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

mean;μ = $2,075

Standard deviation;σ = $300

n = 55

x' = $1,985

Now, we want to find x' to be at least $1,985 which is P(x' > $1,985).

The z-value is calculated from;

z = (x' - μ)/(√σ/n)

Plugging in the relevant values;

z = (1985 - 2075)/(√300/55)

z = -38.536

So, P(x' > $1,985) = P(z > -38.536)

This transforms to;

P(z < 38.536)

Probability from z distribution table is 1

The given equation has been solved in the table. In which step was the subtraction property of equality applied?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtraction property of equality tells that whatever subtracted from one side of the equation must be subtracted from the other side.

If x + 2 = 2,

By the property of subtraction of equality,

x + 2 - 2 = 2 - 2

x = 0

But in the given question,

[tex]\frac{x}{2}-7=-7[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x}{2}-7+7=-7+7[/tex]

shows the addition property of equality in step (2)

Therefore, subtraction property of equality was not applied.
