Jaclyn gets a hit 40% of the time while playing softball. She is going to use colored tiles to simulate her chances of getting a hit. Green tiles will represent hits, while red tiles will represent times Jaclyn does not get a hit. She will place the tiles in a bag, and then draw the tiles from the bag one at a time. Jaclyn places 12 green tiles in a bag. How many red tiles should she place in the bag?

The population of a town decreasing at a rate of 1.5% per year from an initial number of 4500 will drop below 4000 in approximately 9 years, around the year 2019.

The topic of this question concerns a decrease in population over time, which is generally described using exponential decay in mathematics. When we talk about a decrease of 1.5% per year, we're looking at an exponential decay factor of 1 - 0.015 = 0.985. We follow this process to determine the duration for the population to reduce below 4000:

Basically, it means:

4500 * (0.985^n) < 4000

. By solving this inequality, we find that

n ≈ 8.29

. Therefore, we can estimate the town's population will drop below 4000 in the 9th year (since we can't have a fraction of a year), which would be

2019

if we start counting from 2010.

The population of the town would drop below 4000 in 2024.

To determine the year when the population of the town drops below 4000, we can use the formula for exponential decay:

Population = Initial population × (1 - Decay rate)^Time

where:

Population is the population at a given time

Initial population is the initial population (in 2010, which is 4500)

Decay rate is the decrease rate per year (1.5% or 0.015)

Time is the number of years since 2010

We want to find the Time when the Population is less than 4000. So, we can set up an inequality:

4000 > 4500 × (1 - 0.015)^Time

Dividing both sides by 4500, we get:

0.889 > (1 - 0.015)^Time

Taking the natural logarithm of both sides, we get:

ln(0.889) > Time × ln(1 - 0.015)

Dividing both sides by ln(1 - 0.015), we get:

Time ≈ 13.92

Since we're looking for the year when the population drops below 4000, we round up to the nearest whole year. Therefore, the population of the town would drop below 4000 in 2024.

The value of exponential function, which completes the table for variable x at 1/3 is 3. The option B is correct.

Exponential function is the function in which the function growth or decay with the power of the independent variable.

The curve of the exponential function depends on the value of its variable.

The exponential function with dependent variable y and independent variable x can be written as,

[tex]y=a^x[/tex]

Here, [tex]x[/tex] is the variable in the power of a number.

Given information-

The given exponential function in the problem is,

[tex]f(x)=8^x+1[/tex]

The value of function at the value of variable x as 1/3 has to be find to complete the table. Put 1/3 in the above equation on the place of x as,

[tex]f(x)=8^{\frac{1}{3}}+1[/tex]

The number 8 can be written as the [tex]2^3[/tex]. Thus,

[tex]f(x)=(2^3)^{\frac{1}{3}}+1\\f(x)=(2)^{\dfrac{3\times1}{3}}+1\\f(x)=(2)^1+1\\f(x)=2+1\\f(x)=3[/tex]

Thus the value of exponential function, which completes the table for variable x at 1/3 is 3. The option B is correct.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find out the price of one bagel by dividing the price by the number of bagels:

350 Bagels = $168

1 Bagel = $0.48

475 Bagels = $209

1 Bagel = $0.44

0.48 > 0.44

This means the second bakery has the lower price.

Louis wants 800 bagels, so multiply the price by 800.

0.44 * 800 = $352

You can check it's lower by comparing it with the first bakery.

0.48 * 800 = $384

384 > 352

to get another point, we simply can pick a random independent variable, namely "x", say hmmmm x = 9, thus

[tex]\bf y=\cfrac{5}{3}(\stackrel{\stackrel{x}{\downarrow }}{9})\implies y=5\cdot \cfrac{9}{3}\implies y=10~\hspace{7em}\boxed{(9, 10)}[/tex]

To find another point with integral coordinates on the graph of the equation representing a direct variation, we can use the given point (6, 10) and the fact that the equation represents a direct variation. By finding the value of the constant of variation, we can substitute an integral x-value to find the corresponding y-value for another point on the graph.

To find another point with integral coordinates on the graph of the equation representing a direct variation, we need to use the given point (6, 10) and the fact that the equation represents a direct variation. A direct variation equation has the form y = kx, where k is the constant of variation. In this case, we can use the given point to find the value of k. When x = 6 and y = 10 in the equation y = kx, we can substitute these values to solve for k: 10 = k * 6. Solving for k, we get k = 10/6 = 5/3.

Now that we know the value of k, we can find another point with integral coordinates. Let's try x = 3. Using the equation y = kx, we can substitute x = 3 and k = 5/3 to find y: y = (5/3) * 3 = 5.

So, another point with integral coordinates on the graph of the equation representing a direct variation is (3, 5).

To find the unit rate, divide total cost by number of cans bought.

To solve this problem you must apply the Intersecting Secant-Tangent Theorem. By definition, when a secant line and a tangent lline and a secant segment are drawn to a circle from an exterior point:

[tex](Tangent\ line)^2=(Secant\ line)(External\ Secant\ line)[/tex]

The total measure of the secant shown is:

[tex]18+Diameter[/tex]

If the radius is 7, then the diameter is:

[tex]D=7*2=14[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]Secant\ line=18+14=32[/tex]

You also know that:

[tex]External\ Secant\ line=18\\Tangent\ line=x[/tex]

Keeping the above on mind, you can substitute values and solve  for x:

[tex]x^{2}=32*18[/tex]

[tex]x=\sqrt{576}\\x=24[/tex]

The measure of the side length of the tangent line PQ to the circle O is 25 units

From the image, Line segment PQ is a tangent line because it touches the curve at point Q.

Therefore, triangle PQO forms a right triangle.

Leg 1 of the right triangle = OQ = 7

Leg 2 of the right triangle = PQ = x

Hypotenuse = PO = 18 + 7 = 25

Now, to solve for the measure of side length x, we use the Pythagoras theorem:

PQ = √( PO² - OQ² )

Plug in the values:

x = √( 25² - 7² )

x = √( 625 - 49 )

x = √576

x = 24

Therefore, the value of x is 24.

The absent-minded professor burned his ear due to the lens effect caused by sunlight reflecting off a concave mirror. When the professor held the mirror close to his ear and exposed it to sunlight, the mirror focused the sunlight onto his ear, causing it to burn.

The concave mirror has a curve that causes the light rays to converge at a specific point called the focal point. This concentrated light energy resulted in the burning sensation on the professor's ear.

This phenomenon is similar to using a magnifying glass to focus sunlight onto an object and create heat. The concave mirror acted as a magnifying glass, amplifying the intensity of the sunlight and leading to the ear burn.

The answer is A because completing the square gives a minimum of 2,-9 and factorising gives roots of 5 and -1 :)

Answer:

Minimum at (2,-9)  and  intercepts are (-1,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = [tex]x^2 -4x-5[/tex]

completing square method adding and subtracting the square of half of coefficient of 4 ,we get

f(x) = [tex]x^2 -4x+4 -4 -5[/tex]

Y=|x|. An absolute value has a V shape.

Final answer:

The equation that will make a V-shaped graph is y = |x|, as it plots the absolute value of x, creating a V shape by reflecting points on the positive side of the y-axis for both positive and negative values of x.

Explanation:

The student asked which of the following equations will make a V-shaped graph. The answer is y = |x|. This is because the absolute value function produces a graph that is V-shaped, reflecting the positive distance from zero for both positive and negative values of x. The other options presented, such as y = 2x, would produce a straight line; x² + 5 = y (correctly read as y = x² + 5) would produce a parabola; and y = 1/3x would also result in a straight line, just with a different slope. Only the graph of y = |x| has the distinct V shape as it plots the absolute value of x, meaning it reflects the points on the positive side of the y-axis for both positive and negative values of x.

The linear equation that models the cost of making a call lasting x minutes using a calling card is y = -0.1x + 1.45.

To write a linear equation that models the cost of making a call lasting x minutes using a calling card, we can use the given information about two calls. If a 5-minute call costs $0.95 and a 13-minute call costs $1.75, we can set up two equations:

0.95 = 5m + b

1.75 = 13m + b

Solving these equations, we find that m = -0.1 and b = 1.45. Therefore, the linear equation that models the cost of making a call lasting x minutes is y = -0.1x + 1.45.

Hello.

We are solving -9.4 > 1.7x + 4.2.
