The figure shows a square floor plan with a smaller square area that will accommodate a combination fountain and pool.The floor with the fountain pool area removed has an area of 33 Square meters and a perimeter of 36 meters. Find the dimensions of the floor and the dimensions of the square that will accommodate the fountain and pool.
Answer:
(x, y) = (7, 4) meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the floor without the removal is x^2, so with the smaller square removed, it is x^2 -y^2.
The perimeter of the floor is the sum of all side lengths, so is 4x +2y.
The given dimensions tell us ...
x^2 -y^2 = 33
4x +2y = 36
From the latter equation, we can write an expression for y:
y = 18 -2x
Substituting this into the first equation gives ...
x^2 -(18 -2x)^2 = 33
x^2 -(324 -72x +4x^2) = 33
3x^2 -72x + 357 = 0 . . . . write in standard form
3(x -7)(x -17) = 0 . . . . . factor
Solutions to this equation are x=7 and x=17. However, for y > 0, we must have x < 9.
y = 18 -2(7) = 4
The floor dimension x is 7 meters; the inset dimension y is 4 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:
The pink parts are 9 out of total 11 parts.
9/11
Multiply with 66.
9/11 × 66
= 54
Hey there! :)
Answer:
P(Pink) = 54.
Step-by-step explanation:
Begin by calculating the possibility of the spinner landing on pink:
[tex]P(pink) = \frac{pink}{total}[/tex]
Therefore:
[tex]P(Pink) = \frac{9}{11}[/tex]
In this question, the spinner was spun 66 times. Since we have solved for the probability, we can set up ratios to find the probability of the spinner landing on pink out of 66.
[tex]\frac{9}{11}= \frac{x}{66}[/tex]
Cross multiply:
594 = 11x
Divide both sides by 11:
x = 54.
P(Pink) = 54.
In a certainâ state, the recent average critical reading standardized test score was 514. Assume that the standard deviation is 50 and that standardized test scores are Normally distributed. Complete partsâ (a) andâ (b) below. Include a Normal curve for each part.
Required:
a. What percentage of standardized test takers scored 550 or less?
b. What percentage of standardized test takers scored 524?
Answer:
a) Percentage of standardized test takers that scored 550 or less = 76.4%
b) Percentage of standardized test takers that scored 524 = 0.782%
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a normal distribution problem with
Mean = μ = 514
Standard deviation = σ = 50
a) Percentage of standardized test takers scored 550 or less = P(x ≤ 550)
We first normalize or standardize 550
The standardized score for any is the value minus the mean then divided by the standard deviation.
z = (x - μ)/σ = (550 - 514)/50 = 0.72
To determine the required probability
P(x ≤ 550) = P(z ≤ 0.72)
We'll use data from the normal distribution table for these probabilities
P(x ≤ 550) = P(z ≤ 0.72) = 0.76424 = 76.424%
The normal curve for this question and the b part are sketched in the first attached image to this solution.
b) Percentage of standardized test takers that scored 524 = P(x = 524)
On standardizing,
z = (x - μ)/σ = (524 - 514)/50 = 0.20
For this part, since it's an exact probability, we will use the normal distribution formula
P(z = Z) = [1/(σ√2π)] × e^(-z²/2)
Since z = (x - μ)/σ
It can be written properly as presented in the second attached image to this question.
Putting x = 524 or z = 0.20 in this expression, we get
P(x = 524) = P(z = 0.20) = 0.0078208539 = 0.782%
Hope this Helps!!!
Decide whether the method of undetermined coefficients together with superposition can be applied to find a particular solution of the given equation. Do not solve the equation Can the method of undetermined coefficients together with superposition be applied to find a particular solution of the given equation?
A. No, because the right side of the given equation is not the correct type of function
B, Yes °
C. No, because the differential equation is not linear.
D. No, because the differential equation does not have constant coefficients.
Answer:
D. No, because the differential equation does not have constant coefficients.
Step-by-step explanation:
The undetermined coefficient method cannot be applied to non homogeneous variables. The differential equation does not have constant variables therefore the method of undetermined superposition can not be applied. To complete a solution of non homogeneous equation the particular solution must be added to the homogeneous equation.

The average lifetime of a set of tires is 3.4 years. The manufacturer will replace any set of tires failing within three years of the date of purchase. The lifetime of these tires is known to follow an exponential distribution. What is the probability that the tires will fail within three years of the date of purchase?
Answer: the probability that the tires will fail within three years of the date of purchase is 0.12
Step-by-step explanation:
The average lifetime of a set of tires is 3.4 years. It means that μ = 3.4
Decay parameter, m = 1/3.4 = 0.294
The probability density function is
f(x) = me^-mx
Where x is a continuous random variable representing the time interval of interest(the reliability period that we are testing)
Since x = 3 years,
Therefore, the probability that the tires will fail within three years of the date of purchase is
f(3) = 0.294e^-(0.294 × 3)
f(3) = 0.294e^- 0.882
f(3) = 0.12

Answer:
[tex]y(x)=c_1e^{2ix}+c_2e^{-2ix}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
You have the following differential equation:
[tex]3y''+12y=0[/tex] (1)
In order to find the solution to the equation, you can use the method of the characteristic polynomial.
The characteristic polynomial of the given differential equation is:
[tex]3m^2+12=0\\\\m^2=-\frac{12}{3}=-4\\\\m_{1,2}=\pm2\sqrt{-1}=\pm2i[/tex]
The solution of the differential equation is:

Tamar is measuring the sides and angles of Triangle T U V to determine whether it is congruent to the triangle below. For triangle K L M, side K M is 27 millimeters, side L M is 20 millimeters, and side K L is 12 millimeters. Angle K is 45 degrees, angle M is 25 degrees, angle L is 110 degrees. Which pair of measurements would eliminate the possibility that the triangles are congruent? Measure of angle T = 25 degrees and Measure of angle U = 45 degrees Measure of angle T = 110 degrees and Measure of angle V = 25 degrees Measure of angle T = 25 degrees and TU = 12 Measure of angle T = 110 degrees and UV = 27
Answer: Measure of angle T = 25 degrees and Measure of angle U = 45 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Measure of angle T = 25 degrees and TU = 12 is the pair of measurements would eliminate the possibility that the triangles are congruent.
What are congruent triangles?
" Triangles are said to be congruent if the corresponding sides and angles of the one triangle are equals to the other triangles."
According to the question,
In triangle KLM,
KM =27millimeters
LM = 20millimeters
KL = 12 millimeters
∠K= 45degrees
∠M= 25 degrees
∠L = 110degrees
From the given measurements of the triangle we have,
side with measure 27millimeters is opposite to angle 110° .
side with measure 12millimeters is opposite to angle 25° .
side with measure 20millimeters is opposite to angle 45°.
From the conditions in triangle TUV to be congruent to triangle KLM ,
Measure of angle T = 25 degrees and TU = 12 is against the given condition of congruent triangle.
As angle T and side TU are adjacent to each other, which is against the correspondence of the given triangle.
Hence, measure of angle T = 25 degrees and TU = 12 is the pair of measurements would eliminate the possibility that the triangles are congruent.

Consider the set of sequences of seven letters chosen from W and L. We may think of these sequences as representing the outcomes of a match of seven games, where W means the first team wins the game and L means the second team wins the game. The match is won by the first team to win four games (thus, some games may never get played, but we need to include their hypothetical outcomes in the points in order that we have a probability space of equally likely points).A. What is the probability that a team will win the match, given that it has won the first game?B. What is the probability that a team will win the match, given that it has won the first two games? C. What is the probability that a team will win the match, given that it has won two out of the first three games?
Answer:
a) Probability that a team will win the match given that it has won the first game = 0.66
b) Probability that a team will win the match given that it has won the first two games= 0.81
c) Probability that a team will win the match, given that it has won two out of the first three games = 0.69
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a total of seven games to be played. Therefore, W and L consists of 2⁷ equi-probable sample points
a) Since one game has already been won by the team, there are 2⁶ = 64 sample points left. If the team wins three or more matches, it has won.
Number of ways of winning the three or more matches left = [tex]6C3 + 6C4 + 6C5 + 6C6[/tex]
= 20 + 15 + 6 + 1 = 42
P( a team will win the match given that it has won the first game) = 42/64 = 0.66
b) Since two games have already been won by the team, there are 2⁵ = 32 sample points left. If the team wins two or more matches, it has won.
Number of ways of winning the three or more matches left = [tex]5C2 + 5C3 + 5C4 + 5C5[/tex] = 10 + 10 + 5 +1 = 26
P( a team will win the match given that it has won the first two games) = 26/32 = 0.81
c) Probability that a team will win the match, given that it has won two out of the first three games
They have played 3 games out of 7, this means that there are 4 more games to play. The sample points remain 2⁴ = 16
They have won 2 games already, it means they have two or more games to win.
Number of ways of winning the three or more matches left = [tex]4C2 + 4C3 + 4C4[/tex] = 6 + 4 + 1 = 11
Probability that a team will win the match, given that it has won two out of the first three games = 11/16
Probability that a team will win the match, given that it has won two out of the first three games = 0.69

Points a, b, and c are midpoints of the sides of right triangle def. Which statements are true select three options. A B C D E
Answer : The correct statements are,
AC = 5 cm
BA = 4 cm
The perimeter of triangle ABC is 12 cm.
Step-by-step explanation :
As we know that a, b, and c are midpoints of the sides of right triangle that means midpoint divide the side in equal parts.
Now we have to calculate the sides of triangle ABC by using Pythagoras theorem.
Using Pythagoras theorem in ΔACF :
[tex](AC)^2=(FA)^2+(CF)^2[/tex]
Now put all the values in the above expression, we get the value of side AC.
[tex](AC)^2=(3)^2+(4)^2[/tex]
[tex]AC=\sqrt{(9)^2+(16)^2}[/tex]
[tex]AC=5cm[/tex]
Using Pythagoras theorem in ΔDAB :
[tex](Hypotenuse)^2=(Perpendicular)^2+(Base)^2[/tex]
[tex](BD)^2=(AD)^2+(BA)^2[/tex]
Now put all the values in the above expression, we get the value of side BA.
[tex](5)^2=(3)^2+(BA)^2[/tex]
[tex]BA=\sqrt{(5)^2-(3)^2}[/tex]
[tex]BA=4cm[/tex]
Using Pythagoras theorem in ΔBEC :
[tex](Hypotenuse)^2=(Perpendicular)^2+(Base)^2[/tex]
[tex](BE)^2=(CE)^2+(CB)^2[/tex]
Now put all the values in the above expression, we get the value of side CB.
[tex](5)^2=(4)^2+(CB)^2[/tex]
[tex]CB=\sqrt{(5)^2-(4)^2}[/tex]
[tex]CB=3cm[/tex]
Now we have to calculate the perimeter of ΔABC.
Perimeter of ΔABC = Side AB + Side CB+ Side AC
Perimeter of ΔABC = 4 + 3 + 5
Perimeter of ΔABC = 12 cm
Now we have to calculate the area of ΔABC.
Area of ΔABC = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\times 4\times 3=6cm^2[/tex]
Now we have to calculate the area of ΔDEF.
Area of ΔDEF = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\times 8\times 6=24cm^2[/tex]
Area of ΔABC = [tex]\frac{6}{24}\times[/tex] Area of ΔDEF
Area of ΔABC = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] Area of ΔDEF

State whether the data described below are discrete or continuous, and explain why.
The exact lengths (in kilometers) of the ocean coastlines of different countries.
a. The data are continuous because the data can only take on specific values.
b. The data are discrete because the data can only take on specific values.
c. The data are continuous because the data can take on any value in an interval.
d. The data are discrete because the data can take on any value in an interval.
Answer:
c. The data are continuous because the data can take on any value in an interval.
Step-by-step explanation:
A variable is said to be continuous if it can take on any value in an interval. Examples are lengths, temperature, etc
A discrete variable, on the other hand, can only take on specific values. Examples of discrete variables are the number of students and age.
The exact lengths (in kilometers) of the ocean coastlines of different countries is a continuous variable because it can take on any value in an interval.
A stated earlier, Lengths are in general, continuous variables.
