Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
a+(-a)=a-a = 0 which means irrational numbers are not closed under addition or subtraction.
False. Irrational numbers are not closed under subtraction.
Given data:
Closure under subtraction means that if you subtract two irrational numbers, the result will always be another irrational number.
However, this is not true for irrational numbers.
For example, consider the irrational numbers √2 and √2 + √2. Both of these numbers are irrational. However, when we subtract √2 from √2 + √2, we get:
(√2 + √2) - √2 = √2
The result, √2, is still an irrational number. But if we subtract two irrational numbers like √2 from √2, we get:
√2 - √2 = 0
The result, 0, is a rational number, not an irrational number.

A company wants to test clear deck sealants for weather resistance. Three brands of sealants will be tested using 60 pieces of decking wood. The company wants to create treatment groups of 20 pieces of wood each, and decide to randomize using slips of paper. Select all the approaches that would result in comparable treatment groups. The numbers 1, 2, and 3 are each written on 20 slips of paper, and the slips are placed in a hat and shaken well. The top piece of wood from a stack is selected and a slip of paper is drawn from the hat. That piece of wood is assigned to the group number on the slip. The slip of paper is returned to the hat. This continues until all pieces of wood have been assigned to a group. The numbers 1, 2, and 3 are written on three slips of paper, put into a hat, and shaken well. A slip is drawn and the first 20 pieces of wood on the stack are assigned to the group number on the slip. Another slip is drawn and the next 20 pieces of wood are assigned to that group. The remaining pieces of wood are assigned to the remaining group. Each piece of decking wood is assigned a number from 1 to 60. The numbers 1–60 are written on slips of paper and placed in a hat and shaken well. Twenty slips are drawn, shaking the hat after each slip of paper is drawn, and the pieces of wood corresponding to those numbers are placed in group 1. Twenty more slips are drawn in the same way, and the pieces of wood corresponding to those numbers are placed in group 2. The pieces of wood corresponding to the numbers on the remaining slips are placed in group 3. The numbers 1, 2, and 3 are each written on 20 slips of paper (20 for each number) and the slips are placed in a hat and shaken well. The top piece of wood from a stack is selected, and a slip of paper is drawn from the hat. That piece of wood is assigned to the group number on the slip. The slip of paper is not returned to the hat. This continues until all pieces of wood have been assigned to a group.

One of the vertices of △PQR is P(2, −1). The midpoint of PQ is M(3, 0). The midpoint of QR is N(5, 3). Show that MN || PR and MN = 1/2 PR.
The coordinates of Q are:
The coordinates of R are:
The slope of MN is:
The slope of PR is:
The line segments are (select)
MN =
PR =
Answer:
See the proof below
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following coordinates
P(2, −1)
Midpoint of PQ M(3, 0)
We can get the coordinate point Q using the midpoint formula;
M(X,Y) = (x1+x2/2, y1+y2/2)
X = x1+x2/2
3 = 2+x2/2
6 = 2+x2
x2 = 6-2
x2 = 4
Y = y1+y2/2
0 = -1+y2/2
0 = -1 + y2
y2 = 0+1
y2 = 1
Hence the coordinate of Q is (4, 1)
Next is to get the coordinate of R
Given the midpoint of QR to be N(5, 3)
(5,3) = (4+x2/2, 1+y2/2)
5 = 4+x2/2
10 = 4+x2
x2 = 10-4
x2 = 6
1+y2/2 = 3
1+y2 = 6
y2 = 6-1
y2 = 5
Hence the coordinate of R is (6,5)
Given the coordinates M(3, 0) and N(5, 3)
Slope is expressed as:
m = y2-y1/x2-x1
m = 3-0/5-3
m = 3/2
Slope of MN = 3/2
Get the slope of PR
Given the coordinates P(2, −1) and R (6,5)
Slope of PR = 5-(-1)/6-2
Slope of PR = 5+1/4
Slope of PR = 6/4 = 3/2
Since the slope of MN is equal to that of PR, hence MN is parallel to PR i.e MN || PR
To show that MN = 1/2PR, we will have to take the distance between M and N and also P and R first as shown:
For MN with coordinates M(3, 0) and N(5, 3)
MN = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²
MN = √(5-3)²+(3-0)²
MN = √2²+3²
MN = √13
Get the length of PR where P(2, −1) and R (6,5)
PR = √(6-2)²+(5+1)²
PR = √4²+6²
PR = √16+36
PR = √52
PR = √4*13
PR = √4*√13
PR = 2√13
Since MN = √13
PR = 2MN
Divide both sides by 2
PR/2 = 2MN/2
PR/2 = MN
Hence MN = 1/2 PR (Proved!)
What is the slope of a line parallel to y=2x + 3
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the line with equation y=2x+3 is 2 . So, any line parallel to y=2x+3 has the same slope 2 .
Hello!
Parallel lines have the same slope. So if one line has a slope of 2, the line parallel to it has a slope of 2 as well.

so half of 18 is 9
15² - 9² = 144
the square root of 144 is 12
the height is 12cm
b)
18 x 20 = 360cm²
c)

Usually Holly leaves home to school at 9:00, however today she left home 20 minutes later. In order to be at school on time she increased her usual speed by 20% and still was at school 15 minutes later than usual. What is her usual time from home to school
Answer:
Her usual time from home to school is 30 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
At any point in time;
distance = speed * time
Here, we want to calculate the normal time she spent going from home to school
Let the normal time be x minutes
And the normal speed be t m/min
Today, she increased her speed by 20%
Her speed today will be t + 20/100 * t =
1.2t m/min
Her distance from how to school normally is
xt meters
Now what this means is that, at the increased speed, she was able to get to school 5 minutes earlier
What we are saying is although, she lost 20 minutes initially, she was able to beat down the lateness by 5 minutes
So, the time spent on her increased speed journey is;
(x-5) minutes
At any point in time, the distance will be equal;
Thus, mathematically;
xt = 1.2t(x-5)
xt = 1.2xt - 6t
6t = 1.2xt-xt
6t = 0.2xt
t cancels out
0.2x = 6
x = 6/0.2
x = 30 minutes
The melting/freezing point of mercury is –39ºC. A scientist put liquid mercury into a freezer that is kept at a constant temperature of –35ºC. Will the liquid mercury freeze?
Answer:
The mercury will not freeze because the freezer is warmer than the freezing point of mercury.
Step-by-step explanation:
A "freezing point" is a point that allows a liquid to solidify. This is lower than the melting point (of course). However, specific liquids freeze at varying freezing points.
For example, the freezing point of water is 0°C while the freezing point of Mercury is -39°C. This means that water will only freeze once it reaches a temperature of 0°C or lower than this. Same goes for Mercury–it needs to reach the temperature of -39°C or lower in order to freeze.

A publisher reports that 55% of their readers own a laptop. A marketing executive wants to test the claim that the percentage is actually different from the reported percentage. A random sample of 280 found that 51% of the readers owned a laptop. Make the decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis at the 0.05 level.
Answer:
We fail to reject the null hypothesis, we accept H₀
Step-by-step explanation:
Population proportion p₀ = 55 % p₀ = 0,55
Sample size n = 280
Sample mean p = 51 % p = 0,51 q = 0,49
n*p and n*q are both bigger than 10 therefore we can approximate the binomial distribution to a normal distribution
Test Hypothesis
Null Hypothesis H₀ p = p₀
Alternative Hypothesis Hₐ p ≠ p₀
Significance level is α = 0,05 but we have a two-tail test then
α/2 = 0,025
z(c) = - 1,96
Computing z(s)
z(s) = ( p - p₀ ) / √(p*q)/n
z(s) = ( 0,51 - 0,55 ) / √(0,51*0,49)/280
z(s) = - 0,04 * 16,73 / 0,5
z(s) = - 1,34
Comparing
z(s) and z(c)
- 1,34 < - 1,96
| z(s) | < | z(c)|
Then z(s) is in the acceptance region, we accept H₀

Did I do this right math functions need fast
Answer:
The rate of change of Function A is less than the rate of change of function B.
Other than that, everything else you put is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
None.
Answer:
Option A, B and D are correct options.
Step-by-step explanation:
First we will find rate of change of function A and function B
Rate of Change of Function A
The formula used to calculate rate of change is: [tex]Rate\:of\:Change=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
We have x_1=1, y_1=5, x_2=2, y_2=7
Putting values in formula and finding rate of change
[tex]Rate\:of\:Change=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Rate\:of\:Change=\frac{7-5}{2-1}\\Rate\:of\:Change=\frac{2}{1}\\Rate\:of\:Change=2[/tex]
So, Rate of change of Function A = 2
Now, finding y-intercept.
y-intercept is found by putting x =0
Looking at the function, we can write the equation: y=2x+3
Now, put x =0
y=2(0)+3
y=3
So, when x =0, y=3
So, y-intercept is 3 for function A.
Rate of Change of Function A
The formula used to calculate rate of change is: [tex]Rate\:of\:Change=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
We have x_1=1, y_1=1, x_2=2, y_2=4
Putting values in formula and finding rate of change
[tex]Rate\:of\:Change=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Rate\:of\:Change=\frac{4-1}{2-1}\\Rate\:of\:Change=\frac{3}{1}\\Rate\:of\:Change=3[/tex]
So, Rate of change of Function B = 3
Now, finding y-intercept.
y-intercept is found by putting x =0
Looking at the graph, when x=0, y is -2
So, y-intercept is -2 for function B.
We get following answers:
Rate of change of Function A = 2
Rate of change of Function B = 3
y-intercept is 3 for function A.
y-intercept is -2 for function B.
So, The correct options are:
The rate of change of function A and B are positive
The rate of change of function A is less than the rate of change of function B. (Because 2 is less than 3)
The y-intercept of function A is positive, while y-intercept of function B is negative.
So, Option A, B and D are correct options.
The waiting time for a bus has a uniform distribution between 2 and 13 minutes. What is the probability that the waiting time for this bus is less than 4.5 minutes on a given day
Answer: 0.2273
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability density function for uniform distribution is given by :-
[tex]f(x)=\dfrac{1}{b-a}[/tex], where x is uniformly distributed in [a,b].
Let x denotes the waiting time for this bus.
Given : The waiting time for a bus has a uniform distribution between 2 and 13 minutes.
Probability distribution function of x for interval [2,13] will be :-
[tex]f(x)=\dfrac1{13-2}=\dfrac{1}{11}[/tex]
Required probability : P(x<4.5) = [tex]\int^{4.5}_{2}f(x)\ dx[/tex]
[tex]=\int^{4.5}_{2}\dfrac1{11}\ dx\\\\=\dfrac1{11}[x]^{4.5}_{2}\\\\ = \dfrac1{11}(4.5-2)\\\\=\dfrac1{11}(2.5)\approx0.2273[/tex]
Hence, the probability that the waiting time for this bus is less than 4.5 minutes on a given day = 0.2273
