Which table of values represents the exponential function f(x)=(15)x?

Which Table Of Values Represents The Exponential Function F(x)=(15)x?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Unfortunately, f(x)=(15)x is not an exponential function.  I will assume that you meant

f(x) = 5^x

The second table fits this function.  Note that if x = -2, f(-2) = 5^(-2) = 1/25.

1.01 LC)Look at the following numbers: − 4, −1, 0, 4 Which pair of numbers has a sum of 0?

Answers

Answer:

-4 + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

It is -4 + 4 because if you imagine on a number line, you go left 4 (since it is negative) and add 4, so you go to the right 4, which leaves to 0.

Or, you can think of it like this:

+4 - 4

= 4 - 4

= 0.

the answer would be -4 and 4 thess two numbers has a sum of 0

the focal length F of a lens made by combining two lenses of focal length U and V is given I/F=I/U+I/V
A.make V the subject of the formula.
B.find V when F=6,U=10

Answers

Answer:

a). [tex]V=\frac{U.F}{U-F}[/tex]

b). V = 15 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Focal length F of a lens made by combining two lenses of different focal lengths U and V will be,

[tex]\frac{1}{F}=\frac{1}{U}+\frac{1}{V}[/tex]

A). By solving the given formula,

    [tex]\frac{1}{V}=\frac{1}{F}-\frac{1}{U}[/tex]

    [tex]\frac{1}{V}=\frac{U-F}{U.F}[/tex]

    [tex]V=\frac{U.F}{U-F}[/tex]

B). If F = 6 and U = 10 then we have to find the value of V.

    By substituting the given values in the formula,

    [tex]V=\frac{6\times 10}{10-6}[/tex]

    [tex]V=\frac{60}{4}[/tex]

    V = 15 units

    Therefore, focal length (V) of the lens = 15 units

What are the values of sin α and tan α, if α is an acute angle in a right triangle: cosα= 5/13

Answers

Answer:

sin = 12/13 and tan = 12/5

The value of sin α will be 12/13 and tan α  will be 12/5 for the given triangle such that cosα= 5/13.

What is a trigonometric function?

Trigonometric functions are functions for right angle triangle which gives the relation between the angle and sides of the triangle.

The trigonometric function is only valid for the right angle triangle and it is 6 functions which are given as sin cos tan cosec sec cot.

The trigonometric functions are found in the four quadrants, as well as their graphs, domains, and differentiation and integration.

We know that

sin²α  + cos²α  =1  ⇒ sin²α  = 1 - cos²α

Given that cosα = 5/13 so by putting it

sin²α  = 1 - (5/13)²

sin²α  = 144/169  ⇒ sinα = 12/13.

Now since tanα = sinα /cosα  

tanα  = (12/13) ÷ ( 5/13)

tanα = 12/5.

Hence the value of sinα will be 12/13 and tanα will be 12/5.

Answers

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula: Center Not at Origin:

New point = k( x-a) +a, k( y-b) +b  where k is the scale factor and ( a,b) is center of dilation

New point = -2( x-4) +4, k( y-6) +6  

The scale factor is k = -2

Taking the top point ( 1,9)

New point = -2( 1-4) +4, -2( 9-6) +6

                   = -2(-3) +4 , -2(3) +6

                       6+4, -6+6

                         10,0  

Taking the bottom left point ( 1,7)

New point = -2( 1-4) +4, -2( 7-6) +6

                   = -2(-3) +4 , -2(1) +6

                       6+4, -2+6

Given that sin x < cos x and 0°< x < 90°,state a possible value of x. Explain your answer clearly.

Answers

Answer:

30°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sinx< cos x and 0°< x < 90°, to get the possible value of x, we need to solve the given inequality for x.

sinx< cos x

Dividing both sides by cos x

sin x/cos x < cos x/cos x

tan x < 1

x < [tex]tan^{-1}1[/tex]

x < 45°

Since x is less than 45°, then one of the possible value of x can be 30° since 30° is less than 45° and 30° falls within the given range of values.

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent, thus

6x - 15 = x + 15 ( subtract x from both sides )

5x - 15 = 15 ( add 15 to both sides )

5x = 30 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 6

Answer:

X=6 Read explination

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram has the perrimeter of both opposite sides equal

So we know that

6x-15=x+15

This is because in a parrellelogram the opposite sides are equal  

so breaking it down

6x-15=x+15

(add 15 to both sides)

6x=x+30

(subtract x from both sides)

5x=30

(divide both sides by 5)

Bond X is a premium bond making semiannual payments. The bond pays a coupon rate of 11 percent, has a YTM of 9 percent, and has 15 years to maturity. Bond Y is a discount bond making semiannual payments. This bond pays a coupon rate of 9 percent, has a YTM of 11 percent, and also has 15 years to maturity. The bonds have a $1,000 par value. What is the price of each bond today?

Answers

Answer:

Price of Bond X : $1,162.89

Price of bond Y : $854.66

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following information :

Bond X :

Face value = $1000

Yield to maturity (YTM) / market interest rate = 9%

Coupon rate = 11%

Years to maturity = 15 years

Compounding frequency = semianually

Using the online bond price calculator, The bond price will be $1,162.89. The bond is sold at premium, since the par value is lesser than the bond price.

For Bond Y:

Face value = $1000

Yield to maturity (YTM) / market interest rate = 11%

Coupon rate = 9%

Years to maturity = 15 years

Compounding frequency = semianually

Using the online bond price calculator, The bond price will be $854.66. The bond is sold at a discount , since the par value is greater than the bond price.

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to take each number in the dividend (number being divided) and divide it by the number in the divisor (number that is dividing). Here you would take 9, the first number in the dividend and divide it by 6, and you would put that in the first space of the quotient (answer). You would then take that number and multiply it by 6 and place it in the space below. Subtract 6 from 9 and get 3. Drop down the 6 to get 36. Take 36 and divide that by the divisor 6 and get 6 next to the number 1 you calculated earlier to get your answer 16. Take 6 and multiply it back to get 36 and subtract it from 36 to get a remainder of 0.

PLEASE HELP A bag contains red and blue marbles, such that the probability of drawing a blue marble is 3/8 An experiment consists of drawing a marble, replacing it, and drawing another marble. The two draws are independent. A random variable assigns the number of blue marbles to each outcome. What is the probability of drawing one blue marble?

Answers

Answer:

15/64

Step-by-step explanation:

3 blue

5 red marbles.

since the marble is put back in, the denominator will not change,

so to draw ONE marble, the chances would be

chances of picking a blue marble 3/8

chances of picking a red marble 5/8

3/8 * 5/8 - 15/64

please mark me brainly.

Answer:

The probability of drawing one blue marble is 3/8 because you have three blue marbles out of a total of eight marbles. The probability of drawing a second blue marble is also 3/8 but since you have to draw both marbles consecutively you have to multiply the probabilities of drawing each marble. So,

3/8•3/8 = 9/64.

Now you need to change it to a percent.

We do this by

9/64 x 100 = 14% approx

Step-by-step explanation:

The given points are A(-6,-5) and C(4,0).

We need to find the coordinates of point B on segment AC such that AB:BC=2:3.

It means point B divides the line segment AC in the ratio of 2:3.

Section formula: If a point divide a line segment in m:n, then

[tex]Point=\left(\dfrac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},\dfrac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}\right)[/tex]

Using section formula, the coordinates of point B are

[tex]B=\left(\dfrac{2(4)+3(-6)}{2+3},\dfrac{2(0)+3(-5)}{2+3}\right)[/tex]

[tex]B=\left(\dfrac{8-18}{5},\dfrac{0-15}{5}\right)[/tex]

[tex]B=\left(\dfrac{-10}{5},\dfrac{-15}{5}\right)[/tex]

[tex]B=\left(-2,-3\right)[/tex]

Therefore, the coordinates of point B are (-2,-3).
