Cross multiply
[tex] 3(x + 3) = 4(x + 1) [/tex]
[tex] 3x + 9 = 4x + 4 [/tex]
[tex] 3x - 4x = -9 + 4 [/tex]
[tex] -x = -5 [/tex]
[tex] x = 5 [/tex]
Plug in the value of x and find AC and DC
AC = x + 1 = 5 + 1 = 6
DC = x + 3 = 5 + 3 = 8

A market survey shows that 50% of the population used Brand Z computers last year, 4% of the population quit their jobs last year, and 2% of the population used Brand Z computers and then quit their jobs. Are the events of using Brand Z computers and quitting your job independent
Answer:
the events of using Brand Z computers and quitting your job are independent.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A be the event that the population used Brand Z computers and let B be the event that the population quit their jobs.
We are told that 50% of the population used Brand Z computers last year. Thus, the probability of event A is;
P(A) = 50% = 0.5
Also, we are told that 4% of the population quit their jobs last year. Thus the probability of event B is;
P(B) = 4% = 0.04
Since 2% of the population used Brand Z computers and then quit their jobs. Then the probability of the population used Brand Z computers and then quit their jobs is;
P(A ∩ B) = 2% = 0.02
From the law of independent events, if A and B are to be independent events, then;
P(A ∩ B) = P(A) × P(B)
Thus;
P(A ∩ B) = 0.5 × 0.04 = 0.02
This is same value as what was given in the question, thus the events of using Brand Z computers and quitting your job are independent.
find the value of each variable and the measure of each angle
Answer:
Left angle = 60°
Top angle = 120°
Right angle = 60°
Step-by-step explanation:
Use what you know about angle relationships to set up equations you can solve for each variable.
The top top angle, for example, added to one of the other angles must equal 180° because they are supplementary.
You have two variables, so you need at least two equations (I made three but only used two).

A. f(x) = -x^2 - x - 4
B. f(x) = -x^2 + 4
C. f(x) = x^2 + 3x + 4
D. f(x) = x^2 + 4
Answer:
B: -x^2 + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
If the equation was [tex]f(x)=x^2[/tex], then the vertex would be at 0, and the "U" would be facing straight up. Here, the "U" is upside down, so that means the "x^2" would have to be a negative number ([tex]-x^2[/tex]) to get the upside-down "U". Then, we could see that the vertex is at positive 4, so that means that the parabola moved up 4 units, so the equation should end in +4.
Our answer is:
B: -x^2 + 4

Answer: [tex]-\frac{\sqrt{2a}}{8a}[/tex]
=======================================================
Explanation:
The (x-a) in the denominator causes a problem if we tried to simply directly substitute in x = a. This is because we get a division by zero error.
The trick often used for problems like this is to rationalize the numerator as shown in the steps below.
[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to a} \frac{\sqrt{3a-x}-\sqrt{x+a}}{4(x-a)}\\\\\\\lim_{x\to a} \frac{(\sqrt{3a-x}-\sqrt{x+a})(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}{4(x-a)(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\\lim_{x\to a} \frac{(\sqrt{3a-x})^2-(\sqrt{x+a})^2}{4(x-a)(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\\lim_{x\to a} \frac{3a-x-(x+a)}{4(x-a)(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\\lim_{x\to a} \frac{3a-x-x-a}{4(x-a)(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to a} \frac{2a-2x}{4(x-a)(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\\lim_{x\to a} \frac{-2(-a+x)}{4(x-a)(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\\lim_{x\to a} \frac{-2(x-a)}{4(x-a)(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\\lim_{x\to a} \frac{-2}{4(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\[/tex]
At this point, the (x-a) in the denominator has been canceled out. We can now plug in x = a to see what happens
[tex]\displaystyle L = \lim_{x\to a} \frac{-2}{4(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\L = \frac{-2}{4(\sqrt{3a-a}+\sqrt{a+a})}\\\\\\L = \frac{-2}{4(\sqrt{2a}+\sqrt{2a})}\\\\\\L = \frac{-2}{4(2\sqrt{2a})}\\\\\\L = \frac{-2}{8\sqrt{2a}}\\\\\\L = \frac{-1}{4\sqrt{2a}}\\\\\\L = \frac{-1*\sqrt{2a}}{4\sqrt{2a}*\sqrt{2a}}\\\\\\L = \frac{-\sqrt{2a}}{4\sqrt{2a*2a}}\\\\\\L = \frac{-\sqrt{2a}}{4\sqrt{(2a)^2}}\\\\\\L = \frac{-\sqrt{2a}}{4*2a}\\\\\\L = -\frac{\sqrt{2a}}{8a}\\\\\\[/tex]
There's not much else to say from here since we don't know the value of 'a'. So we can stop here.
Therefore,
[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to a} \frac{\sqrt{3a-x}-\sqrt{x+a}}{4(x-a)} = -\frac{\sqrt{2a}}{8a}\\\\\\[/tex]

2. A 10 Mg truck hauls a 20 Mg trailer. If the unit starts from rest on a level road with a
tractive force of 20 kN between the driving wheels of the truck and the road, calculate the
acceleration of the unit and the tension in the horizontal draw-bar.
Drawbar
20 Mg Trailer
10 Mg Truck
a=0.667 m/s2
T= 13.3 KN
Oro
W
Answer:
The acceleration on the unit is 0.667 m/s^2
The tension on the draw-bar is 13.34 kN
Step-by-step explanation:
The mass of the truck = 10 Mg = 10 x 10^3 kg
The mass of the trailer = 20 Mg = 20 x 10^3 kg
Tractive force from the truck = 20 kN = 20 x 10^3 N
The total mass of the unit = 10 Mg + 20 Mg = 30 Mg = 30 x 10^3 kg
The tractive force on the unit will produce an acceleration that is given as
F = ma
where
F is the tractive = 20 x 10^3 N
m is the mass of the unit = 30 x 10^3 kg
a is the acceleration of the unit = ?
substituting into the equation
20 x 10^3 = 30 x 10^3 x a
a = (20 x 10^3)/(30 x 10^3) = 0.667 m/s^2
the tension on the draw-bar T is gotten from considering only the mass that is pulled by the draw-bar which is 20 Mg
The acceleration on the unit = 0.667 m/s^2
The drawn mass = 20 Mg = 20 x 10^3 kg
The tension on the draw bar = ma = 20 x 10^3 x 0.667 = 13340 N
= 13.34 kN
The acceleration is 0.00067m/s^2, while the tension on the horizontal bar is 13.4 N
The given parameters are:
[tex]\mathbf{m = 10Mg}[/tex] -- mass of the truck
[tex]\mathbf{M = 20Mg}[/tex] -- mass of the trailer
[tex]\mathbf{F_T = 20kN}[/tex] --- tractive force
Start by calculating the total mass
[tex]\mathbf{M_T = m + M}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\mathbf{M_T = 10Mg + 20Mg}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{M_T = 30Mg}[/tex]
Convert to kilograms
[tex]\mathbf{M_T = 30 \times 10^3kg}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{M_T = 30000 kg}[/tex]
Force is calculated as:
[tex]\mathbf{F =ma}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\mathbf{20kN =30000kg \times a}[/tex]
Divide both sides by 30000
[tex]\mathbf{a = 0.00067ms^{-2}}[/tex]
The tension on the horizontal bar (i.e. the 20 Mg trailer) is:
[tex]\mathbf{T=ma}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\mathbf{T=20Mg \times 0.00067ms^{-2}}[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]\mathbf{T=20 \times 10^3 kg \times 0.00067m/s}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{T=13.4N}[/tex]
Hence, the acceleration is 0.00067m/s^2, while the tension on the horizontal bar is 13.4 N

Answer:
box plot titled ACT Score with a minimum of 24, quartile 1 of 27, median of 28, quartile 3 of 30, and maximum of 35
Step-by-step explanation:
The scores of the students represented on the dot plot are:
1 dot => 24
3 dots => 26, 26, 26
3 dots => 27, 27, 27
5 dots => 28, 28, 28, 28, 28
3 dots => 30, 30, 30
3 dots => 32, 32, 32
1 dot => 35
Quickly, we can ascertain 3 values from these data points of which we can use to find out which box plot represents the dot plot data.
The minimum score = 24
The maximum score = 35
The median score is the 10th value, which is the middle value of the data point = 28
Therefore, we can conclude that: "box plot titled ACT Score with a minimum of 24, quartile 1 of 27, median of 28, quartile 3 of 30, and maximum of 35".
in chemistry class, 9 Liters of a 40% silver iodine solution must be mixed with a 10% solution to get a 6% solution. How many liters of the 10% solution are needed?
9 L of 40% silver iodine solution contains 0.40 (9 L) = 3.6 L of silver iodine.
x L of a 10% solution contains 0.10 (x L) = 0.1x L of silver iodine.
Mixing these two solutions results in another solution of volume (x + 9) L and containing (0.1x + 3.6) L of silver iodine, which gives it a concentration of 6%.
But this is impossible! Let a < b. You cannot mix two solutions at concentrations of a and b and magically end up with a mixture whose concentration is smaller than a or larger than b, it has to fall somewhere in the middle.
We can still try solving for x to demonstrate this:
(0.1x + 3.6)/(x + 9) = 0.06
0.1x + 3.6 = 0.06 (x + 9)
0.1x + 3.6 = 0.06x + 0.54
0.04x = -3.06
x = -76.5
Nonsense.
Perhaps you meant the target concentration to be 16%? In that case, there is a valid solution:
(0.1x + 3.6)/(x + 9) = 0.16
0.1x + 3.6 = 0.16 (x + 9)
0.1x + 3.6 = 0.16x + 1.44
0.06x = 2.16
x = 36
A clothing business finds there is a linear relationship between the number of shirts, n, it can sell and the price, p, it can charge per shirt. In particular, historical data shows that 1,000 shirts can be sold at a price of $30, while 3,000 shirts can be sold at a price of $10. Find a linear equation in the form p(n)=mn+b that gives the price p they can charge for n shirts.
Answer:
p(n) = -1/100 n 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the two points (n, p): (1000, 30) and (3000, 10).
Now we find the equation of the line that passes through these two points.
m = (10 - 30)/(3000 - 1000)
m = -20/2000
m = -1/100
p(n) = mn + b
30 = -1/100 * 1000 + b
30 = -10 + b
b = 40
The equation is:
p(n) = -1/100 n 40

sum of angle in a triangle = 180°let make the missing angle be A 180 = A + 25 + 35180 = A + 60A = 180 - 60A = 120°so now we use sine rules:
a/(sin A) = b/(sin B) = c/(sin C)Let us make:
The side facing 35° be called bThe side facing 25° be called cThe side facing 120° be called aso :
120/(sin 120°) = b/(sin 35°)120/(0.866) = b/0.574138.57 = b/0.574b = 138.57 x 0.57479.54mso the side facing 35° = 79.54m
b/(sin B) = c/(sin C)79.54/(sin 35) = c/(sin 25)79.54/ (0.574) = c/(0.423)138.57 = c/(0.423)c = 138.57 x 0.423c = 58.62mTo find the area of this triangle

Closing prices of two stocks are recorded for 50 trading days. The sample standard deviation of stock X is 4.665 and the sample standard deviation of stock Y is 8.427. The sample covariance is $35.826.
Calculate the sample correlation coefficient. (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)
Answer:
The sample correlation coefficient r = 0.9113
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are interested in calculating the sample correlation coefficient.
From the question, we are given;
We are given that,
The sample standard deviation of stock X = 4.665
The sample standard deviation of stock Y = 8.427
The sample covariance = 35.826
Mathematically, the Pearson correlation coefficient "r", it is given as;
r = (co-variance of X and Y)/(standard deviation of X * Standard deviation of Y)
Inputing these values, we have;
r = (35.826)/(4.665 * 8.427) = 0.9113

12) A traffic control engineer reports that 75% of the vehicles passing through a checkpoint are from within the state. What is the probability that fewer than 4 of the next 9 vehicles are from out of state
Answer:
0.8343
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we have the following values:
Probability of vehicles that pass within the check point that are from within the state = 75% = 0.75
Probability of vehicles that pass within the check point that are from outsode the state = 100 - 75 = 25% = 0.25
P = 0.25
n = number of random variables = 9
The probability that fewer than 4 of the next 9 vehicles are from out of state is calculated as:
P < 4 = P ≤ 3
n = 9
P(x) = n!/(n - x)! x! × p^x × q^(n - x)
x = 3
p = 0.25
q = 0.75
P(x) = 9! /(9 - 3)! × 3! × 0.25^3 × 0.75^(9 - 3)
P(x) =0.8343
The probability that fewer than 4 (x<4) of the next 9 vehicles are from out of state is 0.83427.
Given information:
75% of the vehicles passing through a checkpoint are from within the state.
So, the probability that the vehicle is from within the state is 0.75.
The probability that the vehicle is from outside the state will be 1-0.75=0.25.
Now, let x be the random variable. So, the value of n=9. and x<4
It is required to calculate the probability that fewer than 4 of the next 9 vehicles are from out of state.
So, [tex]x< 4[/tex], p=0.25 and q=0.75.
So, the required probability can be calculated as,
[tex]P(x\le3) =\sum ^nC_x\times p^x \times q^{(n - x)}\\P(x\le3)=\sum\dfrac{n!}{(n - x)! x!} \times p^x \times q^{(n - x)}\\P(x\le3)= \dfrac{9!}{(9 - 3)! 3!} \times 0.25^3 \times 0.75^{(9 - 3)}+\dfrac{9!}{(9 - 2)! 2!} \times 0.25^2 \times 0.75^{(9 - 2)}+\dfrac{9!}{(9 - 1)! 1!} \times 0.25^1 \times 0.75^{(9 - 1)}+\dfrac{9!}{(9 - 0)! 0!} \times 0.25^0 \times 0.75^{(9 - 0)}\\P(x\le3)=0.83427[/tex]
Therefore, the probability that fewer than 4 of the next 9 vehicles are from out of state is 0.83427.
