Answers

Answer 1
PART A:
Given the table below showing the surface area y, in square feet, of a shrinking lake in x days.

Time (x) (hours):                                5          10         15        20
Surface area (y) (square inches):     90         85         70        61

We can find the correlation coeficient of the data using the table below:
[tex]\begin{center} \begin{tabular} {|c|c|c|c|c|} x & y & x^2 & y^2 & xy \\ [1ex] 5 & 90 & 25 & 8,100 & 450\\ 10 & 85 & 100 & 7,225 & 850\\ 15 & 70 & 225 & 4,900 & 1,050\\ 20 & 61 & 400 & 3,721 & 1,220\\ [1ex] \Sigma x=50 & \Sigma y=306 & \Sigma x^2=750 & \Sigma y^2=23,946 & \Sigma xy=3,570 \end{tabular} \end{center}[/tex]

Recall that the correlation coefitient is given by the equation:
[tex]r= \frac{n(\Sigma xy)-(\Sigma x)(\Sigma y)}{ \sqrt{(n\Sigma x^2-(\Sigma x)^2)(n\Sigma y^2-(\Sigma y)^2)} } \\ \\ = \frac{4(3,570)-(50)(306)}{ \sqrt{(4(750)-(50)^2)(4(23,946)-(306)^2)} } \\ \\ = \frac{14,280-15,300}{ \sqrt{(3,000-2,500)(95,784-93,636)}} = \frac{-1,020}{ \sqrt{500(2,148)}} \\ \\ = \frac{-1,020}{ \sqrt{1,074,000} } = \frac{-1,020}{1,036} =-0.98[/tex]

From the value of the correlation coeffeicient, it can be deduced that the surface area of the lake has a strong negative relationship with the time.

Recall the for the value of the correlation coeficient closer to +1, the relationship is strong positive, for the value closer to -1, the value is strong negative and for the values closer to zero, either way of zero is a weak positive if it is positive and weak negative if it is negative.


PART B:
Recall that the slope of a straight line passing through two points [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex]
is given by
[tex]m= \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Thus, the slope of the graph of surface area versus time between 15 and 20 days, [i.e. the line passes through points (15, 70) and (20, 61)] is given by
[tex]m= \frac{61-70}{20-15}= \frac{-9}{5} =-1.8[/tex]

The value of the slope means that the surface area y, in square feet, of the shrinking lake, shrinks by 1.8 square feet every day between the day 15 and day 20.


PART C:
We can say that the data above represent both correlation and causation.

Recall that correlation expresses the relationship between two variables while causation expresses that an event is as a result of another event.

From the information above, we have seen that there is a relationship (correlation) between the passing of days and the shrink in the surface area of the lake.

Also we can conclude that the shrink in the surface area of the lake is a function of the passing of days, i.e. the shrink in the surface area of the lake is as a result of the passing of days.

Therefore, the data in the table represent both correlation and causation.

If f(x) = –x2 + 3x + 5 and g(x) = x2 + 2x, which graph shows the graph of (f + g)(x)?

Answers

f(x) = –x2 + 3x + 5 and g(x) = x2 + 2x

(f + g)(x) = –x2 + 3x + 5 + x2 + 2x 
(f + g)(x) =   5x + 5  

Answer:

Given the functions: [tex]f(x)= -x^2 +3x+5[/tex] and [tex]g(x) = x^2+2x[/tex]

Now, calculate first [tex](f+g)(x)[/tex] ;

[tex](f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)[/tex]

Substitute the given values we have;

[tex](f+g)(x) = -x^2+3x+5+x^2+2x[/tex]

Combine like terms;

[tex](f+g)(x) =5x+5[/tex]

Let y = [tex](f+g)(x)[/tex]

Then, we have y = 5x+5

Now, Graph the equation of the line y =5x +5

Using slope intercept form: An equation of line is given by :

y = mx +b ; where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

On comparing we get;

m = 5 (Since, slope is positive which means a line moves upward on a graph from left to right)

Now, find the intercepts of the equation: y=5x+5;

x-intercepts: The graph or line crosses the x-axis i.,e

Substitute y = 0 and solve for x;

0 = 5x +5

Subtract 5 on both sides we get;

-5 = 5x

Divide both sides by 5 we get;

x = -1

x-intercepts= = (-1, 0)

Similarly for y-intercept:

Substitute the value of x= 0 and solve for y;

y = 5(0)+5

y = 5

y-intercepts = (0, 5)

Now, using these point we can draw a graph of function [tex](f+g)(x) =5x+5[/tex] as shown below in the attachment.



The depreciating value of a semi-truck can be modeled by y = Ao(0.83)x, where y is the remaining value of the semi, x is the time in years, and it depreciates at 17% per year.
An exponential function comes down from the positive infinity and passes through the points zero comma seventy thousand. The graph is approaching the x-axis. What is the value of the truck initially, Ao, and how would the graph change if the initial value was only $50,000?

$70,000, and the graph would have a y-intercept at 50,000
$60,000, and the graph would have a y-intercept at 70,000
$70,000, and the graph would fall at a slower rate to the right
$70,000, and the graph would fall at a faster rate to the right

Answers

The exponential graph is shown below.

The initial value when the time is zero is 70000. An initial value is normally shown as the point where the graph crosses the y-axis.

If the initial value was to be 50000, the curve would have crossed the y-axis at 50000

The correct answer is the first statement

Answer:

Option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that, the model for the depreciating value of a semi-truck is,

[tex]y = A_{O}(0.83)^x[/tex]

1. It is required to find the value of the truck initially i.e. when x= 0.

So, substituting x= 0, we have,

[tex]y = A_{O}(0.83)^0[/tex]

i.e. [tex]y = A_{O}\times 1[/tex]

i.e. [tex]y = A_{O}[/tex]

Since, the graph passes through the point (0,70,000).

Thus, we get, [tex]A_{O}=70,000[/tex]

Hence, the initial value is 70,000.

2. It is required to find the value of the truck initially i.e. when x= 50,000

That is, when x= 0, the value of y= 50,000.

Graphically, it means that the graph would cut y-axis at the point (0,50,000).

Thus, the y-intercept would be at 50,000.

Change in the initial value will not have any affect on the rate of the graph.

So, from the above, we get,

Option A is correct.

Answers

In scientific notation, 0.00001 is equal to 1 × 10⁻⁵.

FURTHER EXPLANATION

Scientific notation is a way of expressing very big or very small numbers conveniently and with the appropriate number of significant figures.  The general expression for the scientific notation is shown below:

M × 10ⁿ

M is a number that is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10 and n is the number of times you have to multiply M by 10 to get the number.

The value of n can be easily determined by looking at the decimal point and counting the number of times it is moved to the left or to the right until a proper value of M is obtained.

The steps are as follows:

Locate the decimal point in the given. If it's a whole number, there is an implied decimal point at the end or to the right of the last digit.Move the decimal point to the right or to the left until you get a number that is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10. This will be the value of M.Count how many decimal places you moved through to get the value of M. This will be the numerical value of the exponent, n.

        NOTE: If the decimal point was moved to the left, then the

                    exponent n  will be written as positive (+x).

                    If the decimal point was moved to the right, then the

                   exponent  n will be written as negative (-x).

Applying the steps to the problem:

STEP 1: 0.00001

The decimal point is four places away from the digit 1.

STEP 2:  To get a number M that is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10, the decimal point must be moved five places to the right and placed after the digit 1. (000001 or 1)

STEP 3: Since the decimal point was moved five places to the right, the exponent should have a magnitude of 5 and a negative sign. (1 × 10⁻⁵)

Scientific notation is a form that can be used to represent very large or very small numbers

The option that gives the correct representation of 0.00001 is scientific notation (standard form) is the option;

10⁻⁵

Reason:

Required: To convert 0.00001 to a power of 10

Solution:

The method to convert a decimal to a scientific notation is given by moving the decimal point to the right of the first significant digit then multiply the result by 10 raised to the negative of the number of places the decimal point is moved

The general form of the scientific notation is [tex]a \times 10^b[/tex]

Where;

a = The number having only one digit to the left of the decimal point

b = The number of places the decimal point is moved (b is positive moving left and negative for moving right)

The given decimal number is 0.00001

Therefore, the decimal can be moved 5 places to the right to give;

0.00001 = 1.0 × 10⁻⁵ = 10⁻⁵

The correct option is 10⁻⁵

Pam and Meg each have a picture frame. Pam’s picture frame is a square with an area of 3 square feet. Meg’s picture frame is a circle with a radius of 1 foot. The circumference of Meg’s picture frame is the perimeter of Pam’s picture frame by approximately feet

Answers

Answer: So, The circumference of Meg's picture frame is smaller than the perimeter of Pam's picture frame by 0.64 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Area of Pam 's picture frame which is square in shape = 3 sq. ft.

As we know the formula for "Area of square ":

[tex]Area=Side^2\\\\3=Side^2\\\\\sqrt{3}\ ft=Side[/tex]

So, Perimeter of square frame would be

[tex]Perimeter=4\times side\\\\Perimeter=4\times \sqrt{3}\\\\Perimeter=6.93\ ft[/tex]

Radius of Meg's circular frame = 1 foot

So, Circumference of circular frame would be

[tex]2\pi r\\\\=2\times \dfrac{22}{7}\times 1\\\\=\dfrac{44}{7}\\\\=6.29\ ft[/tex]

So, The circumference of Meg's picture frame is smaller than the perimeter of Pam's picture frame by 6.93-6.29=0.64 feet.

Because -(7π)/6 is in the 3rd quadrant, with a reference angle of π/6.
cos(-7π/6) = -cos(π/6) = -√3/2 = -0.866.
Also, -(7π)/12 is in the 2nd quadrant, therefore it's cosine is negative.

How to find if two equations are inverses of each other?

Answers

If you have 2 functions, f(x) and g(x), you would find f(g(x)) and g(f(x)). If, after you simplify both and you end up with just "x" as the answer, they are inverses of each other.  For example, f(x) = 3x - 2 and g(x) = (x+2)/3
f(g(x)) takes the g function and plugs it into the x in the f function, like this:
[tex]f(g(x))=3[ \frac{(x+2)}{3} ]-2 [/tex]
cancel out the 3's to get
f(g(x))=(x+2)-2 which is just x.  Now do it the other way: g(f(x))
[tex]g(f(x))= \frac{[(3x-2)+2]}{3} [/tex]
3x-2+2 is 3x, so we have
[tex]g(f(x))= \frac{3x}{3} =x[/tex]

a. You are given the mean per year. Thus, just convert the unit of time from year to day. 

Mean per day = 35.935.9/year * 1 year/365 days = 98.45

b. Probability is expressed as a fraction or percentage of an event happening. In this case, we should determine when each day, the amount of accidents is 3, 4, 5, 6, and so on. It would be much easier to find the probability of the accident happening once or twice a day.

probability for accidents once and twice a day: 1/98.45 + 2/98.45 = 0.03
Probability for accidents more than twice a day: 1 - 0.03 = 0.97

c. It is not unusual due to the high probability of it happening as quantified in letter b.

A student and a professor each choose a number between 1 and 8 (1 and 8 are both possible choices). what is the probability that the two choose the same number

Answers

Method 1: The student chooses a number x. The professor has 8 possible numbers to choose from, but only one choice is the number x. Therefore, the probability that they both choose the same number is 1/8. Method 2: There are 8*8 = 64 possible pairs of choices that the student and professor can make. Eight of these choices are the same number for the student and the professor, namely (1,1), (2,2),...(8,8). Therefore the probability that they both choose the same number is 8/64 = 1/8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation  [tex]x^2-4=5[/tex]

We have to  Solve the given equation  [tex]x^2-4=5[/tex] graphically.

We first solve the given equation [tex]x^2-4=5[/tex]

Consider the given equation [tex]x^2-4=5[/tex]

Adding 4 both sides, we have

[tex]\Rightarrow x^2-4+4=5+4[/tex]

Simplify, we get,

[tex]\Rightarrow x^2=9[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow x^2-9=0[/tex]

To plot the graph let [tex]x^2-9=y[/tex] be the equation

It will be a parabola with vertex (0,9).

Marisol receives total employee benefits that are 14.5% of her gross annual pay. If Marisol has a gross annual pay of $50,000, how much in total employee benefits does she receive?

Answers

7250! It is that because if you search up 14.5% of 50000 it gives you 7250! I hope this benifits you!

If Marisol has a gross annual pay of $50,000 and receives total employee benefits of 14.5% of her gross annual pay, then you can find how many benefits she receives, using proportion:

[tex] \$50,000 - 100\%,\\ \$x - 14,5\% [/tex].

Then

[tex] \dfrac{50000}{x} =\dfrac{100}{14.5} ,\\\\ x=\dfrac{50000\cdot 14.5}{100}=500\cdot 14.5=7250 [/tex].

In total she will receive $50,000+$7250=$57250.

Answer: $57250.


Without plotting any points other than intercepts, draw a possible graph of the following polynomial:
f(x) = (x + 8)3(x + 6)2(x + 2)(x − 1)3(x − 3)4(x − 6).

Answers

The first thing to do is find the x-intercepts of the function so that you can plot them. Set the function f(x) to zero and find the values of x.

0 = (x + 8)3(x + 6)2(x + 2)(x − 1)3(x − 3)4(x − 6)
There are 6 intercepts:
x+8=0   ---> x= -8 
x+6=0   ---> x=-6
x+2=0   ---> x=-2
x-1=0    ---> x=1
x-3=0    ---> x=3
x-6=0    ---> x=6

The 6 intercepts are plotted as shown in the picture. The tool I used was Microsoft Excel. This is one possible sketch of the graph. The trend could move in any ways as long as it passes these 6 intercepts.

Final answer:

To sketch the polynomial graph without plotting points beyond intercepts, identify the x-intercepts from the factors, note the behavior at these points due to the powers, and connect them considering the end behavior akin to y = x^13.

Explanation:

To sketch a possible graph of the given polynomial f(x) = (x + 8)^3(x + 6)^2(x + 2)(x - 1)^3(x - 3)^4(x - 6), we can use its intercepts and the behavior near these intercepts. The intercepts are the x-values for which f(x) = 0. These are at x = -8, x = -6, x = -2, x = 1, x = 3, and x = 6.

Since these factors are raised to different powers, the graph will behave differently at each intercept. Also, since the highest power in the polynomial is 13 (3+2+1+3+4+1), the end behavior of f(x) as x approaches positive or negative infinity will resemble that of y = x^13.

Here's a step-by-step guide for sketching the graph:

Plot the x-intercepts on the x-axis: (-8, 0), (-6, 0), (-2, 0), (1, 0), (3, 0), (6, 0).

For each intercept, note that if the factor has an odd power, the graph crosses the x-axis, and if it has an even power, the graph touches the x-axis and turns back.

At x = -8, since the power is 3 (odd), the graph crosses the axis and behaves similarly to y = x^3, starting from the bottom.

At x = -6 and x = -2, the powers are 2 (even), so the graph will just touch the axis and turn back.

At x = 1, the power is 3 (odd), so the graph will cross the axis with the behavior of y = x^3.

At x = 3, the power is 4 (even), hence the graph touches the axis and turns back.

At x = 6, as the factor is raised to the first power (odd), the graph crosses the x-axis.

Finally, connect these points with smooth curves, keeping in mind the end behavior of the graph will rise on both ends because the degree is 13, an odd number.

Remember that the final graph should show the pattern of rising and falling appropriately between these intercepts based on the powers of each factor.
