Which equation represents a circle that has a diameter of 10 units and a
center at (4,-1)?
(x+4)^2+(y+1)^2=5
(x-4)^2+(y+1)^2=5
(x-4)^2+(y+1)^2=25
(x+4)^2+(y-1)^2=10
Answer:
third option
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a circle in standard form is
(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius
Here (h, k) = (4, - 1) and r = 10÷ 2 = 5, thus
(x - 4)² + (y - (- 1))² = 5², that is
(x - 4)² + (y + 1)² = 25 ← equation of circle

Step-by-step explanation:
Each pair of vertices can be one of the diagonals. Then the missing point will be found at the coordinates that are the sum of those, less the coordinates of the third point.
Given points are ...
A(-2, 2), B(1, 1), C(2, -2)
For AB a diagonal, D1 is ...
A+B-C = (-2+1-2, 2+1-(-2)) = (-3, 5)
For AC a diagonal, D2 is ...
A+C-B = (-2+2-1, 2-2-1) = (-1, -1)
For BC a diagonal, D3 is ...
B+C-A = (1+2-(-2), 1-2-2) = (5, -3)

For a lot of parallelogram problems I find it easiest to work with the fact that the diagonals bisect each other. This means they both have the same midpoint, so for quadrilateral ABCD, we have (A+C)/2 = (B+D)/2. Multiplying this by 2 gives the equation we used above, A+C = B+D, so D=A+C-B. Remember, in ABCD, AC and BD are the diagonals.

The local hospital offers an incentive for nurses to work longer shifts. After a regular 8-hour shift, they can make double time on the remainder of their shift. That is, they make twice their salary for each hour they work over 8 hours. Nurse Jane works 12 hour shifts Monday through Friday. Her weekly gross income is $2136.00, what is her base salary?
Answer:
$26.70/hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's look at 1 day.
She works a 12 hour shift. For the first 8 hours, she receives her regular hourly salary. That means 8 hours of pay at her regular hourly salary.
Then she works another 4 hours at her overtime pay. Her overtime pay is twice her regular salary, so the extra 4 hours at overtime pay are paid as if they were 8 hours of regular work. In effect, she is earning 16 hours of regular pay per day.
Monday through Friday means 5 days of work per week.
5 days/week * 16 hours/day = 80 hours/week
She is earning as if she were working 80 hours of regular pay per week.
base salary = (gross weekly income)/(effective number of hours in 1 week)
base salary = $2136/80
base salary = $26.70/hour
If 40% of the total population of a particular town of 2500 are HIV positive. How many people are HIV negative.
Answer:
1500 people
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 40% are HIV positive (that's a lot of people), 60% will be HIV negative. All you have to do is find 60% of 2500.
60% of 2500 = 0.6 * 2500 = 6 * 250 = 1500

A box plot is shown below: *check file attached* What is the median and Q1 of the data set represented on the plot? A. Median = 30; Q1 = 20 B. Median = 33; Q1 = 20 C. Median = 30; Q1 = 25 D. Median = 33; Q1 = 25
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
A box and whisker plot is a super useful tool for finding these kinds of data!
The ends of the whiskers represent the maximum and minimum point in the data set. With this plot, we can immediately see that the maximum is 44 and the minimum is 20.
Then, we have a box. The edges of the box represent the 1st and 3rd quartiles. The 1st quartile is the median or middle of the first half of the data set and the 3rd quartile is the median of the second half. We see that the 1st quartile is 25 because the left edge of the box aligns with 25. The 3rd quartile is 39 by looking at the plot.
The median is the middle number of the data set. The median is represented by the line that splits the box. We see that the median is 33 by looking at the plot.
So, by interpreting the box and whisker plot, we see that the answer is D. Median=33; Q1=25.
Now you can interpret box and whisker plots! Have a wonderful day! :D
What statements is equal to the expression p\11
Answer: "p divided by 11" or "p over 11" or "p by 11".
Step-by-step explanation:
We use mathematical statements to express any algebraic expression.
For example: We write 2x as "2 is multiplied by x " or " product of 2 and x".
p+q as "sum of p and q" or "p is added to q"
The given expression is : [tex]\dfrac{p}{11}[/tex]
In mathematical statements, it can be written as "p divided by 11" or "p over 11" or "p by 11".
Hence, the statements are equal to the expression [tex]\dfrac{p}{11}[/tex] are "p divided by 11" or "p over 11" or "p by 11".
What is the name of the map maker who, according to some, gave Venezuela its name? Salvador Dali Christopher Colombus Amerigo Vespucci Leonardo Da Vinci
The answer is C. Amerigo Vespucci
Explanation:
Venezuela is a South-American country that was first discovered and colonized by Spanish explorers. This process included multiple expeditions that allowed colonizers to better understand the features of the territory and native people. One of these expeditions that took place in 1499, included the Italian mapmaker, Amerigo Vespucci. About this, it is claimed he considered the territory and the houses found near a lake resemble Venice, and due to this, he named the territory as "Veneziola", which later changed to the modern name Venezuela.

The amount A (in grams) of thorium-227 after t days for a 10-gram sample is given by A(t)=10⋅0.5^t/18.72 How long will it take before 1 grams of thorium-227 is left in the sample? Round your answer to the hundredths place. days
Answer:
62.17 days
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the number of days is shown below:
Given that
A(t)=10 × 0.5^(t ÷ 18.72)
1 = 10 × 0.5 ^ (t ÷ 18.72)
0.1 = 0.5 ^ (t ÷ 18.72)
Now consider the log in both sides
ln(0.1) = ln(0.5)^ (t ÷ 18.72)
ln(0.1) ÷ ln(0.5) = (t ÷ 18.72)
3.321928095 = (t ÷ 18.72)
So, t = 62.17 days
With the help of log, we can easily compute it

Tree Diagrams
1. For what type of situation is a tree diagram a suitable way to organize information?
2. Explain how to read a tree diagram to determine the possible outcomes for that situation.
Answer: Use a tree diagram for conditional probability
The first branch lists the elements in the starting field-- how many items or outcomes. Like heads or tails, how many of each color of marbles or socks, etc. The next branch shows the set of outcomes from the first event and what is available for the next event. The branches are labeled with fractions to tell the chances of each outcome.
Step-by-step explanation:
A tree diagram is good for determining probability when there are multiple steps in the "draw" and multiple outcomes-- sometimes chances of event a and b "this and that" or event a or b "this or that"
You use the fractions on each branch to calculate the final outcome. If it's a and b, you multiply the fractions on each "trail" you follow through the branches to get the defined final outcome.
If it is a or b, you add the fractions to get the probability of the defined final outcome.

The equations 2 x minus y = negative 2, 3 x + 2 y = 5, 4 x minus y = 2, and 22 x + 10 y = 7 are shown on the graph below. On a coordinate plane, there are 4 lines. Green line goes through (0, 2.5) and (1.75, 0). Blue line goes through (0.5, 0) and (1, 2). Pink line goes through (negative 1, 0), and (0, 2). Purple line goes through (negative 0.75, 2.5) and (0, 0.75). Which system of equations has a solution of approximately (–0.3, 1.4)? 2 x minus y = negative 2 and 22 x + 10 y = 7 3 x + 2 y = 5 and 4 x minus y = 2 4 x minus y = 2 and 22 x + 10 y = 7 2 x minus y = negative 2 and 3 x + 2 y = 5
Answer:
2 x - y = - 2 and 22 x + 10 y = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the equation to produce a solution of approximately (–0.3, 1.4), we have to solve the equations simultaneously.
a) For line 2 x - y = - 2 and 22 x + 10 y = 7
Multiply line 1 by 10 to give : 20x - 10y = -20
Add 20x - 10y = -20 and 22 x + 10 y = 7 to get:
42x = -13
x = -13/42 = -0.3
Put x = -0.3 in 2 x - y = - 2 to get:
2(-0.3) - y = - 2
-0.6 - y = -2
y = 2 - 0.6 = 1.4
x = - 0.3 and y = 1.4
This is the correct option
b) For line 3 x + 2 y = 5 and 4 x - y = 2
Multiply line 2 by 2 to give : 8x - 2y = 8
Add 8x - 2y = 48 and 3 x + 2 y = 5 to get:
11x = 13
x = 13/11 = 1.2
Put x = 1.2 in 3 x + 2 y = 5 to get:
3 (1.2) + 2 y = 5
y = 1.4
x = 1.2 and y = 1.4
c) For line 4 x - y = 2 and 22 x + 10 y = 7
Multiply line 1 by 10 to give : 40x - 10y = 20
Add 40x - 10y = 20 and 22 x + 10 y = 7 to get:
62x = 27
x = 0.44
Put x = 0.44 in 4x - y = 2 to get:
y = -0.24
d) For line 2 x - y = - 2 and 3 x + 2 y = 5
Multiply line 1 by 2 to give : 4x - 2y = -4
Add 4x - 2y = -4 and 3x + 2 y = 5 to get:
7x = 1
x = 0.14
Put x = 0.14 in 2 x - y = - 2 to get:
y = 2.28

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is 9x³. If x is 3 greater than the number of sides of the polygon, how many sides does the polygon have?
Answer:
n = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is 9[tex]x^2[/tex]. If x is 3 greater than the number of sides of the polygon, how many sides does the polygon have?
The sum of the interior angles of a concave polygon can be found using the formula S = (n - 2)*180.
n= number of sides of the polygon
n-2 * 180 = the sum of the interior angles
9[tex]x^2[/tex]= the sum of the interior angles
9[tex]x^2[/tex]= (n-2) *180
x= 3+ n
9 [tex](3+n)^{2}[/tex]=(n-2) *180
9 (9+6n+n^2) = (n-2) *180
81+54n+9n^2 = (n-2) *180
n = 7

Let y=5x_1+3x_2+〖9x〗_3 find Mean and variance of y. Where x_1,x_2 and〖 x〗_3 are independent uniform random variable with parameter of x_(1 ) as [2:4] for x_2 as [5:10] and for x_3 as [0:4]?
Answer:
Mean value = 55.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Y = 5X1 + 3X2 + 9X3
CASE 1:
X1 = 2, X2 = 5, X3 = 0
Y = 5(2) +3(5) + 9(0) = 10 + 15 + 0 = 25
CASE 2:
X1 = 4, X2 = 10, X3 = 4
Y = 5(4) + 3(10) + 9(4) = 20+30+36 = 86
The mean value of Y is (25 + 86)/2 = 55.5
The variance from the mean is 30.5
In order to clear out room for new merchandise, James decided to mark down some of the items for sale in his electronics store. He marked down DVD players by 36%, and he marked down stereo tuners by 22%. If DVD players cost $41.60 after the markdown and stereo tuners cost $69.42 after the markdown, which item’s price was reduced by more, and by how many dollars more was it reduced? Round all dollar values to the nearest cent.
Answer:
a) Which item’s price was reduced by more, and by how many dollars more was it reduced?
The DVD player's price was reduced more by $3.82 than the stereo tuner's price.
b) Round all dollar values to the nearest cent.
Rounding $3.82 dollars to the nearest cents
$1 = 100 cents
$3.82 =
3.82 × 100 cents
= 382 cents
The DVD player's price was reduced by 382 cents more than the stereo tuner's price
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets day the original price of the DVD player was $100
We are told the price was marked down to 36%
36% of $100 = $36
$100 - $36 = $64
We are told the DVD cost $41.60 after the markdown.
Original cost of DVD =
$41.60/$64 × 100 = $65
Lets the original price of the Stereo player was $100
We are told the price was marked down to 22%
22% of $100 = $22
$100 - $22 = $78
We are told the DVD cost $69.42 after the markdown.
Original cost of Stereo =
$69.42/$78 × 100 = $89
DVD = $65 - $41.60 = $23.40 less
Stereo = $89 - 69.42 = $19.58 less
Difference between the DVD and the Stereo is
$23.40 - $19.58 = $3.82
Therefore,the DVD player's price was reduced by $3.82 more than the stereo tuner's price
Rounding $3.82 dollars to the nearest cents
$1 = 100 cents
$3.82 =
3.82 × 100 cents
= 382 cents

On a block of ten houses, k are not insured. a tornado randomly damages three houses on the block. the probability that none of the damaged houses are insured is 1/120. calculate the probability that at most one of the damaged houses is insured.
Answer:
[tex]P=0.1833[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of ways or combinations in which we can choose x elements from a group of n is calculated as:
[tex]nCx=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
So, the probability that none of the damaged houses are insured can be calculated as:
[tex]\frac{kC3}{10C3}=\frac{kC3}{120}[/tex]
Because there are 120 ways to select 3 houses from the block of 10 houses and there are kC3 ways to select 3 houses from a group of k houses that are not insured.
The probability that none of the damaged houses are insured is 1/120, so:
[tex]\frac{kC3}{120}=\frac{1}{120}\\ kC3=1[/tex]
kC3 is equal to 1, only if k is equal to 3. It means that there are 3 houses that are not insured.
Then, the probability that one of the damaged houses is insured can be calculated as:
[tex]\frac{3C2*7C1}{10C3}=0.175[/tex]
Because we select 2 houses from the 3 that are not insured and select 1 house from the 7 that are insured.
Finally, the probability that at most one of the damaged houses is insured is equal to the sum of the probability that one of the damaged houses is insured and the probability that none of the damaged houses is insured. It is equal to:
[tex]P=\frac{1}{120}+0.175=0.1833[/tex]

Find the equation of the median shown:
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
The median is the line cutting the triangle in this graph. In general, a median connects any of the triangle points to halfway across the side opposite to that point. This median connects R to halfway across the side across from R.
We want to find the equation of this median. We see that T is at (-2,3) and R is (3,-3). The first thing to do when looking for the equation of the line is to find the slope, or incline. Since we have two points, we can do this very easily. You simply divide the difference in the y-values by the difference in the x-values.
DIFFERENCE IN Y-VALUES
3-(-3)
3+3
6
DIFFERENCE IN X-VALUES
-2-3
-5
Now, we divide the two answers, giving us -6/5.
So, we have our slope, which gives us the equation so far y=-6/5x+b. We just need to find the b, which is our y-intercept. Well, to do this, we plug in one of our points and we can solve for b. We will use (3,-3)!
-3=-6/5(3)+b
-3=-3 3/5+b
We add 3 3/5 to both sides to isolate the b.
b=3/5
This means that this median should hit the y-axis at (0,3/5), and it looks like it does. Therefore, the equation of this median is y=-6/5x+3/5.
Now you can find the slope of a median! Have a wonderful day! :D

What is the rate of discount if a pair of shoes is regularly $145.00 and the sales price is $108.75?
Answer:
25%
Step-by-step explanation:
You set up the proportion 108.75/145 is x/100 to find out what percentage of 145 108.75 is. You can then use this proportion to find that percentage with cross multiplying, by doing this you get the equation 108.75 times 100 is equal to 145x. Then you simplify to get 10,875=145x. Then you solve like regular by dividing both sides by 145 to get x=75. Now we know that 108.75 is 75% of 145, but we aren't done yet. Now in order to find the discount price you subtract 75 from 100 to get 25, so you're finding the difference between 100 and the x-value we just found. The final answer is 25%

= 4 / (2^x + 4)
When x = 2 this = 4/8 = 0.5
The limit is the same whether you approach 2 from below or above.
So k = 0.5.

Answer: x=5, y=7
Step-by-step explanation:
Since ΔEFG and ΔHIJ are congruent, we can set the corresponding sides equal to each other.
y+14=3y [subtract both sides by y]
14=2y [divide both sides by 2]
y=7
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10x=x+45 [subtract both sides by x]
9x=45 [divide both sides by 9]
x=5
Lisa is currently taking physics as one of her electives in school. Her grade at the end of the year is determined by the average of four exams, each worth 100 points. On her first test she got an 84, on her second she got a 92, and on her third an 80. What must she score on her fourth exam to get exactly 80% in the course?
Answer: 64
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Lisa is currently taking physics as one of her electives in school and that her grade at the end of the year is determined by the average of four exams, each worth 100 points.
First test = 84,
Second test = 92
Third test = 80
Forth test = y
The fourth test is denoted by y.
Since we are told that she must get exactly 80% in the course and she took 4 exams, that means her total score will be: = 80 × 4 = 320
Therefore,
84 + 92 + 80 + y = 320
256 + y = 320
y = 320 - 256
y = 64
The fourth exam's score is 64
If m∠VWA=120∘ and m∠BWC=(32x−27)∘, what is the value of x?
Answer:
Value of x = 4.6 (Approx)
Step-by-step explanation:
Note:
The statement in given question is missing that both angles are congruent.
Given:
m∠VWA = 120°
m∠BWC = (32 x - 27)°
Find:
Value of x
Computation:
We know that,
⇒ m∠VWA = m∠BWC
⇒ 120 = 32x - 27
⇒ 120 + 27 = 32x
⇒ 147 = 32x
⇒ x = 147 / 32
⇒ x = 4.59375
x = 4.6 (Approx)
Denise bought a box of 560 pieces of candy.4/5 of the pieces of the candy were fruity and 1/4 of the remaining pieces of candy were mint.How many of candy of the other flavors were there?
Answer:
Number of Other flavor candy is 84.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
A total of 560 pieces of candy are there in the box.
[tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] of the pieces are fruity.
Number of Fruity pieces:
[tex]\dfrac{4}{5} \times 560\\\Rightarrow 4 \times 112 =448[/tex]
Now, remaining pieces = Total pieces - Fruity pieces
remaining pieces = 560 - 448 = 112
Also given that [tex]\frac{1}4[/tex] of the remaining pieces are mind.
Number of mint pieces:
[tex]\dfrac{1}{4}\times 112 = 28[/tex]
Other flavors remaining = Total pieces - Fruity pieces - Mint pieces
Other flavors remaining = 560 - 448 - 28
Other flavors remaining = 112 - 28 = 84
Number of Other flavor candy is 84.
