The area of a rectangular patio is 5 5/8 square yards, and its length is 1 1/2. What is the patio width, in yards

Answers

Answer 1

The width is 3 3/4. you just have to divide 5 5/8 by 1 1/2.

Answer 2

let's firstly convert those mixed fractions to improper fractions and then proceed.

[tex]\bf \stackrel{mixed}{5\frac{5}{8}}\implies \cfrac{5\cdot 8+5}{8}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{45}{8}}~\hfill \stackrel{mixed}{1\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{1\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{3}{2}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill[/tex]

[tex]\bf \textit{area of a rectangle}\\\\ A=Lw~~ \begin{cases} L=length\\ w=width\\ \cline{1-1} L=\frac{3}{2}\\ A=\frac{45}{8} \end{cases}\implies \cfrac{45}{8}=\cfrac{3}{2}w\implies \cfrac{45}{8}=\cfrac{3w}{2}\implies 90=24w \\\\\\ \cfrac{90}{24}=w\implies \cfrac{15}{4}=w\implies 3\frac{3}{4}=w[/tex]

What is Probability ?

Probability is a topic in mathematics  where the likeliness of an event is studied.

The range of probability is 0 to 1 .

0 indicates uncertainty to 1 indicating certainty.

It is given in the question that

30% of the U.S. population is under 20 years old

About 17% of the population is over 60

probability that a person chosen at random is under 20 or over 60 = ?

Let P(A) represents person under 20

Let P(B) represents person over 60

As a person is chosen at random and the events cannot happen together so they are mutually exclusive events.

The probability for mutually exclusive event is given by

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B)

P(A) = 17% = 0.17

P(B) = 30% = 0.3

P(A or B) = 0.30 + 0.17

P(A or B) = 0.47 = 47%

Therefore , the probability that a person chosen at random is under 20 or over 60 is 47% , option C is the correct answer.

An end table costs $69.85 today. If the CPI is 194, what would an end table cost in 1983, to the nearest cent? a. $135.51 b. $124.15 c. $36.00 d. $23.76

Answers

Answer:

$36.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost performance index (CPI) is a measure of the financial effectiveness and efficiency of a project. As a ratio it is calculated by dividing the budgeted cost of work completed, or earned value, by the actual cost of the work performed, that is to say:

CPI = Budgeted cost of work / Actual cost of work

From the statement we know that:

CPI = 1.94

Budgeted cost of work= $69.85

Cost of work in 1983 = Budgeted cost of work / CPI

Cost of work in 1983 = $69.85 / 1.94 = $36.00

  12 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle is ...

  A = 1/2bh . . . . . b represents the base; h represents the height

We are told that the height is 5 m less than the base, so we have ...

  42 = (1/2)(b)(b -5)

  84 = b(b-5) . . . . . . . . multiply by 2

We want two factors of 84 that differ by 5. The factors are ...

  84 = 1·84 = 2·42 = 3·28 = 4·21 = 6·14 = 7·12

The relevant factors are 7 and 12, so now we know b-5 = 7 and b = 12.

The length of the base is 12 m.

y=3cos⁡2π(x−5)+2


y=5cos⁡3π(x−2)+2


y=3cos⁡2π(x+2) / 2+5

Answers

Answer:

Last option

[tex]y = 3cos(\pi(x+2)) + 5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The general cosine function has the following form  

[tex]y = Acos(b(x-\phi)) + k[/tex]

Where A is the amplitude: half the vertical distance between the highest peak and the lowest peak of the wave.  

[tex]\frac{2\pi}{b}[/tex] is the period: time it takes the wave to complete a cycle.

k is the vertical displacement.

[tex]\phi[/tex] is the shift phase

In this problem :

[tex]A = 3[/tex]

[tex]\frac{2\pi}{b}=2\\\\ b=\frac{2\pi}{2}\\\\ b=\pi[/tex]

[tex]\phi =-2\\\\k = 5[/tex]

So  The function is:

[tex]y = 3cos(\pi(x+2)) + 5[/tex]

d. v=(200rtsq3-140rtsq2)i+(200+140rtsq2)j

Answers

ANSWER

Option D is correct

EXPLANATION

We resolve the forces into component forms.

[tex]F_1 = 400 \cos(30) i + 400 \sin(30) j[/tex]

[tex]F_1 = 200 \sqrt{3} i +200j[/tex]

Also the second is resolved to obtain,

[tex]F_2= 280 \cos(135) i + 280 \sin(135) j.[/tex]

[tex]F_2= - 140 \sqrt{2} i + 140 \sqrt{2} j[/tex]

To find the resultant vector, V, We add the corresponding components of the two forces to get:

[tex]V=F_1+F_2 [/tex]

[tex] \implies \: V = (200 \sqrt{3} - 140 \sqrt{2} )i + (200 + 140 \sqrt{2})j[/tex]

The correct answer is D.

Sketch the following in standard position.
Determine the quadrant the angle lies in (if it is on an axis, state which axis it is on and if it is + or - axis)
Then determine the reference angle.​

Answers

Answer: 1) Quadrant: I, reference angle: [tex]\dfrac{2\pi}{5}[/tex]

              2) Quadrant: III, reference angle: 85°

              3) Quadrant: IV, reference angle: [tex]\dfrac{\pi}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle is the angle closest to the x-axis

1) The given angle is (2/5)π. The first quadrantal (π/2) would be (2.5/5)π

Since (2/5)π < (2.5/5)π then it must be in Quadrant 1.

The angle closest to the x-axis is the same as the given angle.

2) The given angle is -95°. It is measured clockwise since it is a negative angle.  Since it is greater than 90°, it is greater than the 270° quadrantal. So it must be in Quadrant III.

The angle closest to the x-axis is 85°.

3) The given angle is (23/4)π.  Since (8/4)π is one rotation, this is greater than one rotation. (23/4)π - (8/4)π - (8/4)π = (7/4)π. So, it rotates two complete rotations and lands at coterminal angle (7/4)π.

The angle closest to the x-axis is π/4

Which polynomial function has a leading coefficient of 1 and roots (7 + i) and (5 – i) with multiplicity 1?

c. f(x) = (x – (7 – i))(x – (5 + i))(x – (7 + i))(x – (5 – i))
d. f(x) = (x + (7 – i))(x + (5 + i))(x + (7 + i))(x + (5 – i))

Answers

Answer:

C. [tex]f(x)=(x-(7-i))(x-(5+i))(x-(7+i))(x-(5-i))[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the equation of a polynomial the following properties;

i. Leading coefficient is 1

ii. roots (7 + i) and (5 – i) with multiplicity 1

Recall the complex conjugate properties of the roots of a polynomial.

According to this property, if

[tex]a+bi[/tex] is a root of a polynomial, then the complex conjugate, [tex]a-bi[/tex]  is also a root.

This means that:

(7 - i) and (5 + i) with multiplicity 1 are also roots of this polynomial.

The complete set of roots are:

[tex]x=(7+i),x=(7-i),x=(5-i),x=(5+i)[/tex]

Therefore the polynomial is:

[tex]f(x)=(x-(7-i))(x-(5+i))(x-(7+i))(x-(5-i))[/tex]

The correct choice is C.

Final answer:

The correct polynomial function with roots (7 + i) and (5 – i), each with multiplicity 1 and a leading coefficient of 1, is given by (c) f(x) = (x – (7 + i))(x – (5 – i))(x – (7 - i))(x – (5 + i)).

Explanation:

The question asks which polynomial function has a leading coefficient of 1 and roots (7 + i) and (5 – i) with multiplicity 1. For a polynomial to have these roots, its conjugates, (7 - i) and (5 + i), must also be roots because complex roots always come in conjugate pairs if the polynomial has real coefficients.

This leads us to option (c) as the correct answer. To form a polynomial with these roots, we take each root, turn it into a binomial by subtracting it from x, and then multiply these binomials together.

Doing so for the given roots, we get:

f(x) = (x – (7 + i))(x – (5 – i))(x – (7 - i))(x – (5 + i))

This polynomial matches option (c), confirming it as the correct answer.

a. (4,7)
b. (4,207)
c.(-2,4)
d.(-2,0)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parametric equation is:

[tex]x=4t[/tex]

[tex]y=12t^2+4t-1[/tex]

We make t the subject in the first equation;

[tex]t=\frac{x}{4}[/tex]

We substitute into the second equation to get:

[tex]y=12(\frac{x}{4})^2+4(\frac{x}{4})-1[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{3}{4}x^2+x-1[/tex]

When x=4 , [tex]y=\frac{3}{4}(4)^2+4-1=15[/tex]

When x=-2 , [tex]y=\frac{3}{4}(-2)^2+-2-1=0[/tex]

Therefore the point (-2,0) lies on the given parametric  curve.

Kenneth brings a partially-filled beaker of red liquid into is his laboratory and uses an apparatus to add drops of blue liquid to the beaker at a constant rate. The equation y = 5x + 15 describes the relationship between the number of minutes (x) since Kenneth began adding drops of blue liquid to the beaker and the total amount of liquid in the beaker (y), in milliliters. Which statement correctly describes a solution of the equation?

Answers

there are two ways you can do

[tex]y = 5x + 15 \\ \\ 1. \: y - 15 = 5x \\ 2. \: \frac{y - 15}{5} = x \\ 3. \: x = \frac{y - 15}{5} \\ \\ \\ 1. \: 5x + 15 = y \\ 2. \: 5x + 15 + - 15 = y + - 15 \\ 5x = y - 15 \\ 3. \: \frac{5x}{5} = \frac{y - 15}{5} \\ x = \frac{1}{5} y - 3[/tex]

Final answer:

A solution of the equation y = 5x + 15 represents a specific moment during Kenneth's experiment, where 'x' is the time elapsed since he started adding the blue liquid, and 'y' is the total volume of the liquid mixture in the beaker.

Explanation:

The equation y = 5x + 15 provided is a linear equation, which is a mathematical expression showing a constant rate of change. In this context, Kenneth's experiment in the laboratory, 'x' is the number of minutes since Kenneth began adding drops of blue liquid to the beaker, and 'y' is the total amount of liquid, in milliliters, in the beaker.

A solution to this equation refers to specific values for 'x' and 'y' which make this equation true. For instance, if we choose x = 1 minute, then we can calculate 'y' by substituting 'x' into the equation which gives y = 5*1 + 15 = 20 mL. This means that after 1 minute, Kenneth has 20 mL of liquid in his beaker. Indeed, every solution to this equation reflects a specific moment (x, or number of minutes) in Kenneth's ongoing experiment and the corresponding total volume (y) of the mixture in the beaker.

y = cos4x
y = cosx + 4
y = cos(x + 4)

Answers

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

1

The cosine function in standard form is

y = acos(bx + c)

where a is the amplitude, period = [tex]\frac{2\pi }{b}[/tex] and

phase shift = - [tex]\frac{c}{b}[/tex]

here b = 2 and c = [tex]\frac{\pi }{2}[/tex], thus

phase shift = - [tex]\frac{\frac{\pi }{2} }{2}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{\pi }{4}[/tex]

2

the amplitude = | a |

which has a maximum of a and a minimum of - a

y = 4cosx ← has a maximum value of 4

Final answer:

The phase shift of the function y = 5cos(2x + π/2) is -π/4 radians. The functions y = 4cosx and y = cosx + 4 both have a maximum y value of 4.

Explanation:

To find the phase shift of the function y = 5cos(2x + π/2), we need to look at the argument of the cosine function. The general form is y = Acos(Bx - C) where C/B is the phase shift. In this case, the argument of the cosine is 2x + π/2, thus the phase shift is -π/2 divided by the coefficient of x, which is 2, giving us a phase shift of -π/4 or -0.785 radians.

To determine which of the provided functions has a maximum y value of 4, consider the amplitude of the cosine functions. For the functions y = 4cosx, y = cos4x, and y = cos(x + 4), the amplitude is 1, and thus the maximum y value is 1 for the latter two, and 4 for the first one. However, y = cosx + 4 is a cosine function shifted upward by 4 units, and hence its maximum y value is also 5. So, the functions with a maximum y value of 4 are y = 4cosx and y = cosx + 4.

Read the excerpt from the fairy tale Hansel and Gretel and answer the question that follows. Hard by a great forest dwelt a poor wood-cutter with his wife and his two children. The boy was called Hansel and the girl Gretel. He had little to bite and to break, and once when great dearth fell on the land, he could no longer procure even daily bread. Now when he thought over this by night in his bed, and tossed about in his anxiety, he groaned and said to his wife: "What is to become of us? How are we to feed our poor children, when we no longer have anything even for ourselves?" "I'll tell you what, husband," answered the woman, "early tomorrow morning we will take the children out into the forest to where it is the thickest; there we will light a fire for them, and give each of them one more piece of bread, and then we will go to our work and leave them alone. They will not find the way home again, and we shall be rid of them." "No, wife," said the man, "I will not do that; how can I bear to leave my children alone in the forest?the wild animals would soon come and tear them to pieces." "O, you fool!" said she, "then we must all four die of hunger, you may as well plane the planks for our coffins," and she left him no peace until he consented. "But I feel very sorry for the poor children, all the same," said the man. The two children had also not been able to sleep for hunger, and had heard what their stepmother had said to their father. Gretel wept bitter tears, and said to Hansel: "Now all is over with us." "Be quiet, Gretel," said Hansel, "do not distress yourself, I will soon find a way to help us." And when the old folks had fallen asleep, he got up, put on his little coat, opened the door below, and crept outside. The moon shone brightly, and the white pebbles which lay in front of the house glittered like real silver pennies. Hansel stooped and stuffed the little pocket of his coat with as many as he could get in. Then he went back and said to Gretel: "Be comforted, dear little sister, and sleep in peace, God will not forsake us," and he lay down again in his bed. When day dawned, but before the sun had risen, the woman came and awoke the two children, saying: "Get up, you sluggards! we are going into the forest to fetch wood." She gave each a little piece of bread, and said: "There is something for your dinner, but do not eat it up before then, for you will get nothing else." Gretel took the bread under her apron, as Hansel had the pebbles in his pocket. Then they all set out together on the way to the forest. When they had walked a short time, Hansel stood still and peeped back at the house, and did so again and again. His father said: "Hansel, what are you looking at there and staying behind for? Pay attention, and do not forget how to use your legs." "Ah, father," said Hansel, "I am looking at my little white cat, which is sitting up on the roof, and wants to say goodbye to me." The wife said: "Fool, that is not your little cat, that is the morning sun which is shining on the chimneys." Hansel, however, had not been looking back at the cat, but had been constantly throwing one of the white pebble-stones out of his pocket on the road. When they had reached the middle of the forest, the father said: "Now, children, pile up some wood, and I will light a fire that you may not be cold." Hansel and Gretel gathered brushwood together, as high as a little hill. The brushwood was lighted, and when the flames were burning very high, the woman said: "Now, children, lay yourselves down by the fire and rest, we will go into the forest and cut some wood. When we have done, we will come back and fetch you away." Hansel and Gretel sat by the fire, and when noon came, each ate a little piece of bread, and as they heard the strokes of the wood-axe they believed that their father was near. It was not the axe, however, but a branch which he had fastened to a withered tree which the wind was blowing backwards and forwards. And as they had been sitting such a long time, their eyes closed with fatigue, and they fell fast asleep. When at last they awoke, it was already dark night. Gretel began to cry and said: "How are we to get out of the forest now?" But Hansel comforted her and said: "Just wait a little, until the moon has risen, and then we will soon find the way." And when the full moon had risen, Hansel took his little sister by the hand, and followed the pebbles which shone like newly-coined silver pieces, and showed them the way.
