Answer 1

Answer:

  p = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between the first two terms is ...

  5p -p = 4p

Since this is an arithmetic sequence, the next term will be 4p more than the last term:

  5p +4p = 9p

Then the sum of the first three terms is ...

  p + 5p + 9p = 90

  15p = 90 . . . . . . . . . . collect terms

  p = 6 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 15

_____

The first three terms are 6, 30, 54.

value of p when q = 80 , if 9= 30 when p = 7

A) 4
B) 6
Ch 10.82

Answers

Answer:

p = 10.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that p is directly proportional to (p-1)² and p is always positive, then;

q = k (p-1)²

If q = 30 and p = 7

30 = k(7-1)²

30 = 6²k

30 = 36k

5 = 6k

k = 5/6

To get p when q = 80

q =k (p-1)²

80 = 5/6((p-1)²

480 = 5(p-1)²

480/5 = (p-1)²

(p-1)² = 96

p-1 = √96

p-1 = 9.8

p = 9.8 + 1

p = 10.8

If you sleep 6 hours a day every day for a year you are sleeping of every year. If there are 365 days in a year, how
many days per year would you sleep? Simplify your answer and write it as a mixed number.
days

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

365 x 24 = 8,760

365 x 6 = 2,190

8,760 - 2,190 = 6,570

6,570 / 24 = 273 3/4

The person sleeps 91 (1/4) days per year.

What is multiplication?

Multiplication is the process of adding a number up to a given number.

Given that, the person sleeps 6 hours a day.

The total hours of sleeping over a year are:

365 × 6

= 2190 hours per year

Since there are 24 hours in a day, divide 2190 by 24 to get the answer in days per hour:

2190/24

= 91 (1/4)

Hence, the person sleeps 91 (1/4) days per year.

You weigh a random sample of adult golden retrievers and get the following results: 55, 64, 58, 61, 69, 64, 59, 69, 72, and 65. Which answer gives a 98% confidence interval for the mean of the population

Answers

Answer:

The 98% confidence interval for the mean of the population is (59, 68.2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to find the sample mean and the sample standard deviation.

Sample mean:

[tex]\overline{x} = \frac{55+64+58+61+69+64+59+69+72+65}{10} = 63.6[/tex]

Sample standard deviation:

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{(55-63.6)^2+(64-63.6)^2+(58-63.6)^2+(61-63.6)^2+(69-63.6)^2+(64-63.6)^2+(59-63.6)^2+(69-63.6)^2+(72-63.6)^2+(65-63.6)^2}{10}} = 5.142[/tex]

Confidence interval:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, and thus, we use the t-distribution.

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 = 10 - 1 = 9

98% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 9 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.99[/tex]. So we have T = 2.821

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.821\frac{5.142}{\sqrt{10}} = 4.6[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 63.6 - 4.6 = 59

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 63.6 + 4.6 = 68.2.

The 98% confidence interval for the mean of the population is (59, 68.2).

find how far away (ground distance) from the catapult will white bird be at its highest. (round to the nearest 2 decimal points)
h= -0.114x^2+2.29x+3.5


Answers

Answer:

The bird will be at a ground distance of 10.04 units away.

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex of a quadratic function:

Suppose we have a quadratic function in the following format:

[tex]f(x) = ax^{2} + bx + c[/tex]

It's vertex is the point [tex](x_{v}, y_{v})[/tex]

In which

[tex]x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

[tex]y_{v} = -\frac{\Delta}{4a}[/tex]

Where

[tex]\Delta = b^2-4ac[/tex]

If a<0, the vertex is a maximum point, that is, the maximum value happens at [tex]x_{v}[/tex], and it's value is [tex]y_{v}[/tex].

Equation for the height:

The height of the bird after x seconds is given by:

[tex]h(x) = -0.114x^2 + 2.29x + 3.5[/tex]

Which is a quadratic equation with [tex]a = -0.114, b = 2.29, c = 3.5[/tex].

When the bird is at its highest?

Quadratic equation with [tex]a < 0[/tex], and thus, at the vertex. The ground distance is the x-value of the vertex. Thus

[tex]x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a} = -\frac{2.29}{2(-0.114)} = 10.04[/tex]

The bird will be at a ground distance of 10.04 units away.

Let f (x) = 10/x-4
What is the average rate of change of f (x) from 2 to 8 ?

Enter your response as a decimal.

Answers

Answer:

1.875

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change is the derivative of the function.

[tex]f(x) = \frac{10}{x-4}\\\\f'(x)=10\times \frac {d}{dx}\frac{1}{x-4}\\\\f'(x)=\frac{-10}{(x-4)^{2}}\\\\f'(2) = \frac{-10}{(2-4)^{2}} =-2.5\\\\f'(8)= \frac{-10}{(8-4)^{2}} =-0.625\\[/tex]

So, the rate of change is

f'(8) -  f'(2) = - 0.625 + 2.5 = 1.875

m 6 = [ ?] ​

Answers

Answer:   55

==============================================

The 125 degree angle and angle 6 are supplementary. This is because of the same side interior angles theorem.

Let x be the measure of angle 6. Add this to 125, set the sum equal to 180, and solve for x.

x+125 = 180

x = 180-125

x = 55

------------

Or you could approach it this way:

y = measure of angle 2

y+125 = 180

y = 55

angle 6 = angle 2 (corresponding angles)

angle 6 = 55 degrees

-------------

Yet another way you could solve:

z = measure of angle 3

z+125 = 180

z = 55

angle 6 = angle 3 (alternate interior angles)

angle 6 = 55 degrees

A similar approach using alternate interior angles would involve angle 5 = 125, and then noticing that x+125 = 180 solves to x = 55

Let 0 be an angle such that sec0= -13/12 and cot0<0. Find the exact values of tan0 and sin0.

Answers

Answer:

tan 0 = -2.4

sin 0 = 0.42

Step-by-step explanation:

sec 0 = -13/12 => cos 0 = -12/13

cot 0 < 0 => tan 0 < 0

so, the angle is on second quadrant

=> tan 0 = -12/5 = -2.4

=> sin 0 = 5/12 = 0.42

Answer:

Solution given;

Sec θ=-[tex]\frac{13}{12}[/tex]

cotθ< 0,

It lies in second quadrant.

where sin and cosec is positive.

Now

[tex] \frac{1}{cosθ}=-\frac{13}{12}[/tex]

cosθ=[tex]\frac{12}{13}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{b}{h}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{12}{13}[/tex]

b=12

h=13

By using Pythagoras law

p=[tex] \sqrt{13²-12²}=5 [/tex]

Now

exact values of tan θ=[tex]\frac{p}{b}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex]

since it lies in II quadrant

tan θ=-[tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex]

and

sinθ=[tex]\frac{p}{h}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{5}{13}[/tex]

since it lies in II quadrant

sin θ=[tex]\frac{5}{13}[/tex]

[tex]b=30.98[/tex]

[tex]r^2 = 0.74476[/tex]

In the result, we have:

[tex]y = ax + b[/tex]

[tex]a =-1.077[/tex]

This implies that:

[tex]y = -1.077x + 30.98[/tex]

To make prediction when [tex]x = 13.5[/tex]

We have:

[tex]y = -1.077*13.5 + 30.98[/tex]
