[ASAP] Which table represents the graph of a logarithmic function in the form y=log _(b)x when b>1
Answer:
the first table
Step-by-step explanation:
We see that the first table represents the logarithmic function [tex]y = \log_2x[/tex], so it's the first table.
The first table represents the graph of a logarithmic function in the form y=log _(b)x.
What is a logarithm?Exponentiation's inverse function is the logarithm. That is, the logarithm of a given number x is the exponent to which another fixed number, the base b, must be raised in order to obtain that number x.
The given table has data where y is a function of x;
y=F(x)
[tex]y=log _{b}x \\\\ -2 = log _{b}\frac{1}{4} \\\\ \frac{1}{4} = log _{b}{-2} \\\\ -1= log _{b}\frac{1}{2} \\\\ 0=log _{b}1 \\\\ 1=log _{b}2[/tex]
Hence the first table represents the graph of a logarithmic function in the form y=log _(b)x.

Quadrilateral J K L M is shown. A diagonal is drawn from point J to point L. Sides K L and J M are parallel. Sides J K and L M are congruent. The length of J L is 18, the length of J K is 16, and the length of J M is 40. Angle M is 45 degrees.
If KM is drawn on this quadrilateral, what will be its length?
Answer:
KM is 52.55
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that JKLM is a quadrilateral with a diagonal drawn from J to L, we have;
Sides KL is parallel to side JM
Side JK is congruent to side LM
Therefore, sides JK and LM are parallel being the equal distances between two parallel lines
JL = 18, JK = 16, therefore, LM = 16, JM = 40 therefore, KL = 40 (equal distances between parallel lines JK and LM)
∠M = 45° ∴ ∠L = 180° - 45° = 135° (sum of adjacent interior angles of a parallelogram)
By cosine rule, we have;
KM² = LM² + KL² - 2×KL×LM×cos(∠M) = 16² + 40² - 2×16×40×cos(135°)
KM² = 2761.0967
KM = √(2761.0967) = 52.55 units.

Rasheeda sees a garden in a book. She changes the scale because she wants a garden with different dimensions. The figure below shows both scales and a scale drawing of the garden.
Book scale: 1 inch = 2 feet. Rasheeda's Scale: 2 inches = 3 feet. A rectangle with length A of 18 inches and width B of 6 inches.
Which statements about the gardens are true? Select three options.
Answer:
B. Length A of Rasheeda’s garden is 27 ft.
C. Length B of the book’s garden is 12 ft.
E. Length A of the book’s garden is 9 ft longer than length A of Rasheeda’s garden.
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the dimension of the book's garden
we know that
Book scale: 1 inch = 2 feet
That means
1 inch in the drawing represent 2 feet in the actual
To find out the actual dimensions, multiply the dimension in the drawing by 2
so
Length A of the book’s garden
Width B of the book’s garden
step 2
Find the dimension of Rasheeda’s garden
we know that
Rasheeda's Scale: 2 inch = 3 feet
That means
2 inch inches the drawing represent 3 feet in the actual
To find out the actual dimensions, multiply the dimension in the drawing by 3 and divided by 2
so
Length A of Rasheeda's garden
Width B of Rasheeda's garden
Verify each statement
A. Length A of the book’s garden is 18 ft.
The statement is false
Because, Length A of the book’s garden is 36 ft (see the explanation)
B. Length A of Rasheeda’s garden is 27 ft.
The statement is true (see the explanation)
C. Length B of the book’s garden is 12 ft
The statement is true (see the explanation)
D. Length B of Rasheeda’s garden is 6 ft.
The statement is false
Because, Length B of Rasheeda’s garden is 9 ft. (see the explanation)
E. Length A of the book’s garden is 9 ft longer than length A of Rasheeda’s garden.
The statement is true
Because the difference between 36 ft and 27 ft is equal to 9 ft
F. Length B of the book’s garden is 3 ft shorter than length B of Rasheeda’s garden.
The statement is false
Because, Length B of the book’s garden is 3 ft greater than length B of Rasheeda’s garden.

PLEASE HELP ASAP Use mathematical induction to prove the statement is true for all positive integers n, or show why it is false. 1^2+2^2+3^2+...+n^2=n(n+1)(2n+1)/6
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Consider P(1) that is n = 1
[tex]1^2 = \frac{1(1+1)(2*1+1)}{6}=\frac{6}{6}=1 \checkmark[/tex]
Step 2: Suppose the equation is true up to n. That is
[tex]1^2 + 2^2+3^2+........+n^2 = \dfrac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6 }[/tex]
Step 3: Prove that the equation is true up to (n+1). That is
[tex]1^2 + 2^2+3^2+........+n^2 + (n+1)^2 = \dfrac{(n+1)(n+2)(2n+3)}{6 }[/tex]
The easiest way to prove it is to expend the right hand side and prove that the right hand side = the right hand side of step 2 + (n+1)^2
From step 2, add (n+1)^2 both sides. The left hand side will be the left hand side of step 3, now, the right hand side after adding.
[tex]\dfrac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6 }+(n+1)^2 = \dfrac{2n^3+3n^2+n}{6}+\dfrac{6n^2+12n+6}{6}[/tex]
[tex]=\dfrac{2n^3+9n^2+13n+6}{6}[/tex]
If you expend the right hand-side of the step 3, you will see they are same.

Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
1^2+2^2+3^2+...+n^2=n(n+1)(2n+1)/6
Step1
Verify it for n=1
1^2= 1(1+1)(2*1+1)/6= 1*2*3/6= 6/6=1 - correct
Step2
Assume it is correct for n=k
1^2+2^2+3+2+...+k^2= k(k+1)(2k+1)/6
Step3
Prove it is correct for n= k+1
1^2+2^2+3^2+...+(k+1)^2= (k+1)(k+2)(2k+2+1)/6
prove the above for k+1
1^2+2^2+3^2+...+k^2+(k+1)^2= k(k+1)(2k+1)/6 + (k+1)^2=
= 1/6(k(k+1)(2k+1)+6(k+1)^2)= 1/6((k+1)(k(2k+1)+6(k+1))=
=1/6((k+1)(2k²+k+6k+6))= 1/6(k+1)(2k²+4k+3k+6))=
= 1/6(k+1)(2k(k+2)+3(k+2))=
=1/6(k+1)(k+2)(2k+3)
Proved for n= k+1 that:
the sum of squares of (k+1) terms equal to (k+1)(k+2)(2k+3)/6
For many years businesses have struggled with the rising cost of health care. But recently, the increases have slowed due to less inflation in health care prices and employees paying for a larger portion of health care benefits. A recent Mercer survey showed that 52% of U.S. employers were likely to require higher employee contributions for health care coverage. Suppose the survey was based on a sample of 700 companies. Compute the margin of error and a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of companies likely to require higher employee contributions for health care coverage. If required, round your answer to four decimal places. Round intermediate calculations to four decimal places. Margin of Error: Confidence Interval: to
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval estimate of the true population proportion of U.S. employers that were likely to require higher employee contributions for health care coverage is 0.52 +/- 0.0370
= (0.4830, 0.5570)
The margin of error M.E = 0.0370
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.
The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.
p+/-z√(p(1-p)/n)
p+/-M.E
Given that;
M.E = margin of error
Proportion p = 52% = 0.52
Number of samples n = 700
Confidence interval = 95%
z value (at 95% confidence) = 1.96
Substituting the values we have;
0.52 +/- 1.96√(0.52(1-0.52)/700)
0.52 +/- 1.96(0.0189)
0.52 +/- 0.0370
( 0.4830, 0.5570)
The 95% confidence interval estimate of the true population proportion of U.S. employers that were likely to require higher employee contributions for health care coverage is 0.52 +/- 0.0370
= (0.4830, 0.5570)
The margin of error M.E = 0.0370

Answer:
The expected number of adult workers with a high school diploma is 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
This random variable X can be modeled with the binomial distribution, with parameters n=10 (the sample size) and p=0.4 (the probability that a adult worker have a high school diploma).
The expected value of X is then the mean of the binomial distribution with the parameters already mentioned.

Juan told Sylvia he got a $0.50 raise this week and his new hourly rate will be $10.25 an hour. Sylvia wants to know what Juan’s hourly rate was before his raise. Which equation and solution can be used to solve this problem? r minus 10.25 = 0.50: Add 10.25 to both sides. The answer is $10.75. r + 0.50 = 10.25: Subtract .50 from both sides. The answer is $9.75. r minus 0.50 = 10.25: Subtract .50 from both sides. The answer is $10.75 r + 10.25 = 0.50: Subtract .50 from both sides. The answer is $9.75.
Answer:
The correct answer is:
r + 0.50 = 10.25: Subtract .50 from both sides. The answer is $9.75.
This is because Juan got a $0.50 raise which means that his new rate will be $0.50 more than his original rate (r).

The endpoints of the directed line segment AB are A(−7, 4) and B(8, 9). Find the coordinates of point P along line segment AB so that the ratio of AP to PB is 2 to 3. pls help
Answer:
(-1,5)
Step-by-step explanation:
When a line segment is divided in the ratio m:n, we use the section formula to determine the point P which divides the line segment:
The coordinates of x and y are:
[tex](x,y)=\left(\dfrac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n}, \dfrac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}\right)[/tex]
Given:
[tex]A(x_1,y_1)=(-7, 4)\\B(x_2,y_2)=(8, 9)\\AP:PB=m:n=2:3[/tex]
The coordinates of P is:
[tex](x,y)=\left(\dfrac{2*8+3*-7}{2+3}, \dfrac{2*9+3*4}{2+3}\right)\\=\left(\dfrac{-5}{5}, \dfrac{25}{5}\right)\\\\=(-1,5)[/tex]
In our decimal system, we distinguish odd and even numbers by looking at their ones (or units) digits. If the ones digit is even (0, 2, 4, 6, 8), the number is even. If the ones digit is odd (1, 3, 5, 7, 9), the number is odd. Determine whether this same criterion works for numbers expressed in base four
Answer:
Yes. In base 4 numbers if a number ends with 0 or 2 then it is an even number. If it ends with 1 or 3 then it is an odd number.
Step-by-step explanation:
The first 13 numbers in base 4 are written in brackets next to their corrsponding decimal number below
decimal number 0(0) ,1 (1) ,2(2), 3(3), 4(10), 5(11), 6(12), 7(13), 8,(20), 9(21), 10(22), 11(23), 12(30), 13(31) and so on
From above we can deduce that in base-4 any number ending with 0 or 2 is an even nmuber and any number ending with 1 or 3 is an odd number

What is 3/4 divided by 1/6
Answer:
[tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
Multiply and flip
[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] x [tex]\frac{6}{1}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{18}{4}[/tex]

The value of the division of the two numbers 3/4 and 1/6 results in an improper fraction of 9/2.
To divide fractions, we can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
In this case, we want to divide 3/4 by 1/6, so we multiply 3/4 by the reciprocal of 1/6.
The reciprocal of a fraction is obtained by flipping the fraction upside down. The reciprocal of 1/6 is 6/1 or simply 6.
Therefore, to solve 3/4 divided by 1/6, we can multiply 3/4 by 6:
(3/4) x 6
= (3 x 6) / 4
= 18/4
To simplify the result, we can divide the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:
18/4
= (18/2) / (4/2)
= 9/2
So, the division of 3/4 by 1/6 is equal to 9/2.
In mixed number form, 9/2 can be expressed as 4 1/2, meaning there are 4 whole units and 1/2 unit remaining.
Therefore, 3/4 divided by 1/6 is equal to 4 1/2.

Answer:
m=(3+f)/(f-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
To make m the subject of the formula, we want to isolate m. That is, we want to move m to one side of the equation.
First, the fractions need to be taken away. Multiply both sides by m-1 to get: f(m-1)=4m+3.
The distributive property of subtraction tells us a(b-c)=ab-ac. Thus, from this equation we have fm-f=4m+3.
Subtracting 4m, we have fm-4m-f=3
Now, we work the distributive property backwards, where we have ab-ac=a(b-c). Rearrange the terms of fm and 4m, to get mf, and m4. Thus, this can be simplified to m(f-4).
Going back to the equation, we have m(f-4)-f=3.
Add f on both sides, so we have m(f-4)=3+f.
Divide by f-4, so we have m=(3+f)/(f-4)

a realtor uses a lock box to store the keys to a house that is for sale. the access code for the lock consist of five digits. the first digit cannot be 1 and the last digit must be even. how many different codes are avaible
Answer:
45,000 codes
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Code of 5 digits
Condition
First digit can't be 1Last digit must be evenRequired
Calculate the number of codes available
Digits = {0,1,2....9}
n(Digits) = 10
Let the format of the code be represented as follows;
ABCDE
From the conditions given
A can't be 1;
This means that A can be any of 0,2,3,4....9
This implies that A can be any of the above 9 digits
n(A) = 9
There's no condition attached to BCD;
This means that B can be any of 10 digits
This means that C can be any of 10 digits
This means that D can be any of 10 digits
n(B) = n(C) = n(D) = 10
Lastly, E must be an even number;
This means that E can be any of 0,2,4,6,8
This implies that E can be any of the above 5 digits
n(E) = 5
So,
Number of available codes = n(A) * n(B) * n(C) * n(D) * n(E)
Number of available codes = 9 * 10 * 10 * 10 *5
Number of available codes = 45,000
Hence, there are 45,000 available codes

Alex is paid $30/hr at full rate, and $20/hr at a reduced rate. The hours of work are paid at a ratio of 2:1, full rate : reduced rate. For example, if he worked 3 hours, he would be paid 2 hours at full rate and 1 hour at reduced rate. Calculate his pay for 4 hours of work.
Answer:
$106.67
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the example, for 3 hours work, Alex would be paid ...
(2 hr)($30/hr) +(1 hr)($20/hr) = $60 +$20 = $80
At the same rate of pay, for 4 hours work, the pay would be ...
pay/(4 hr) = $80/(3 hr)
pay = $80(4/3) ≈ $106.67
Alex's pay for 4 hours of work is $106.67.

Mary’s taxable income= $68,562
From the table, If taxable income is over $31,850 but not over $77,100
The tax = $4386.25 + 25% of the amount over 31,850
Amount over $31,850=$68,562-$31,850
=$36,712
Therefore:
Mary's tax = $4386.25 + (25% of $36,712)
=$4386.25 +9,178
=$13564.25
=$13564 (to the nearest dollar)
Income tax is the tax charged on individual's or entities' income
Mary owes $13564 income tax
Given that the taxable income is $68,562.
Using the table as a guide, $68,562 falls within the income range $31,850 - $77,100
So, the tax is $4386 added to 25% of the excess over $31850
This is calculated as:
[tex]Tax = \$4386 + 25\% \times (Income -\$31850)[/tex]
Substitute $68,562 for income
[tex]Tax = \$4386 + 25\% \times (\$68562 -\$31850)[/tex]
Solve the expression in the bracket
[tex]Tax = \$4386 + 25\% \times \$36712[/tex]
Evaluate the product
[tex]Tax = \$4386 + \$9178[/tex]
Add the terms of the expression
[tex]Tax = \$13564[/tex]
Hence, Mary owes $13564 income tax

A sport analyst wants to determine the mean salary of a Baseball player for 2015. He believes an estimate of this average salary using a confidence interval is sufficient. How large a sample should he take to be within $497,000 of the actual average with 80% confidence? He calculates the standard deviation of salary for all baseball players for 2015 is about $5,478,384.55. Round your answer to whole number.
Answer:
The large sample size 'n' = 199.6569≅ 200
Step-by-step explanation:
Step(i):-
Given Standard deviation of salary for all baseball players for 2015 is about $5,478,384.55
Standard deviation of of salary for all baseball players for 2015
(S.D ) σ = $5,478,384.55
Given estimate of this average salary for all baseball players for 2015
= $497,000
Given Margin of error of error is = $497,000
Level of significance ∝ = 80%
The critical value Z₀.₂₀ = 1.282
Step(ii):-
Margin of error of error is determined by
[tex]M.E = \frac{Z_{0.20} S.D}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
[tex]497,000 = \frac{1.282 X 5,478,384.55}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
Cross multiplication , we get
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.282 X 5,478,384.55}{497,000 }[/tex]
On calculation , we get
√n = 14.13
Squaring on both sides, we get
n = 199.6569
Conclusion:-
The large sample size 'n' = 199.6569≅ 200
two technicians regularly make repairs when breakdowns occur on an automated production line. the first technican, who services 40% of the breakdowns, has 5% chance of making incomplete repair. the second technican, who services 60% of the breakdowns, has 3% chance of making an incomplete repair. given that there is a problem with the production line due to an incomplete repair, what is the probability that thids intial repair was made by the first technican
Answer:
52.63% probability that thids intial repair was made by the first technican
Step-by-step explanation:
Bayes Theorem:
Two events, A and B.
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
In which P(B|A) is the probability of B happening when A has happened and P(A|B) is the probability of A happening when B has happened.
In this question:
Event A: Incomplete repair
Event B: Made by the first technican.
The first technican, who services 40% of the breakdowns, has 5% chance of making incomplete repair.
This means that [tex]P(B) = 0.4, P(A|B) = 0.05[/tex].
Probability of an incomplete repair:
5% of 40%(first technican) or 3% of 60%(second technican). So
[tex]P(A) = 0.05*0.4 + 0.03*0.6 = 0.038[/tex]
Given that there is a problem with the production line due to an incomplete repair, what is the probability that thids intial repair was made by the first technican
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{0.4*0.05}{0.038} = 0.5263[/tex]
52.63% probability that thids intial repair was made by the first technican
A multiple-choice examination has 20 questions, each with five possible answers, only one of which is correct. Suppose that one of the students who takes the examination answers each of the questions with an independent random guess. What is the probability that he answers at least seventeen questions correctly? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
Answer:
The probability that the student answers at least seventeen questions correctly is [tex]8.03\times 10^{-10}[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the random variable X represent the number of correctly answered questions.
It is provided all the questions have five options with only one correct option.
Then the probability of selecting the correct option is,
[tex]P(X)=p=\frac{1}{5}=0.20[/tex]
There are n = 20 question in the exam.
It is also provided that a student taking the examination answers each of the questions with an independent random guess.
Then the random variable can be modeled by the Binomial distribution with parameters n = 20 and p = 0.20.
The probability mass function of X is:
[tex]P(X=x)={20\choose x}\ 0.20^{x}\ (1-0.20)^{20-x};\ x =0,1,2,3...[/tex]
Compute the probability that the student answers at least seventeen questions correctly as follows:
[tex]P(X\geq 17)=P (X=17)+P (X=18)+P (X=19)+P (X=20)[/tex]
[tex]=\sum\limits^{20}_{x=17}{{20\choose x}\ 0.20^{x}\ (1-0.20)^{20-x}}\\\\=0.00000000077+0.000000000032+0.00000000000084+0.000000000000042\\\\=0.000000000802882\\\\=8.03\times10^{-10}[/tex]
Thus, the probability that the student answers at least seventeen questions correctly is [tex]8.03\times 10^{-10}[/tex].
