Answer 1

Answer:

Slope of top rail f(x) is 7

Slope of top rail g(x) is 7

Top and bottom rails are parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

The table shows the  distance, in inches, of the top rail f(x) and bottom  rail g(x) from the floor for the middle of each  numbered stęp x.

x        f(x)      g(x)

1          9        43

2          16        50

3          23        57

To find the slope of top rail :

x        f(x)      

1          9        

2          16        

3          23        

[tex](x_1,y_1)=(1,9)\\(x_2,y_2)=(2,16)\\Slope = m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{16-9}{2-1}=7[/tex]

Slope of top rail f(x) is 7

To Find the slope of bottom rail:

x     g(x)

1      43

2      50

3      57

[tex](x_1,y_1)=(1,43)\\(x_2,y_2)=(2,50)\\Slope = m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{50-43}{2-1}=7[/tex]

Slope of top rail g(x) is 7

We know that if the slopes of two lines are equal then are said to be parallel lines

Since the slopes of both the rail are equal . So, Top and bottom rails are parallel.

A person bought some articles at the rate of 5 per rupee (₹) and the same number of articles at the rate of 4 per rupee (₹). He mixed both the types and sold them at the rate of 9 for ₹2. In this business, he suffered a loss of ₹3. The total number of articles bought by him was:
a. 1090

b. 1080

c. 540

d. 545

Answers

Answer:

B. 1080

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets assume the number of articles was x.

Half of the articles was bought at the price 1/5 rupee each and the other half was  bought at the price 1/4 rupee each.

Cost of articles:

1/2x*1/5 + 1/2x*1/4 = 1/2x(1/5 + 1/4) = 1/2x(4/20 + 5/20) = 9/40x

Money made after sale is:

2/9x according to rate

The difference is 3 rupees:

9/40x - 2/9x = 381/360x - 80/360x = 31/360x = 3x = 3*360x = 1080

Correct choice is B

A fancy new brand of laundry detergent just launched an aggressive advertisement campaign in the hope that people will use the brand despite its higher price point. An avid consumer is trying to determine whether this fancy new brand of laundry detergent cleans clothes better than his regular brand of laundry detergent. To do this, over the course of a month he randomly uses one of the detergents in each load of laundry and then, when the wash cycle is complete, assigns a value to how clean the clothes are based on the number of garments that are "sufficiently clean," with higher scores being better. If the consumer were to perform a test to tell the difference between the mean scores of each detergent (ignoring the flaws in this test design), what hypothesis would he use?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the answer to this question,

His hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis:

H0: μ(new) - μ(regular) = 0

Alternate hypothesis:

H1: μ(new) - μ(regular) > 0

The consumer is testing to know if his new detergent is better off in cleaning than the regular. The question says that higher scores after cleaning is used to signify which is better based on sufficiently clean garment. Since he is interested in knowing the mean scores of the differences, he should use the hypothesis I stated above.

Scenario: Stephanie has been driving for four years without any major auto accidents-until today. It was pouring rain when she left class, and within minutes of leaving, she was forced to make an evasive maneuver that caused her to go into a spin on the wet road. After knocking an expensive, high-end luxury car down an embankment, Stephanie came to a stop by smashing into the side of a mid-range sedan.

She was found to be at fault in the accident, so let's look at the extent of the damage she caused:

Luxury car: This car was totaled at a value of $95,000.

Sedan: This car will need $4,000 in repairs.

Hospital bills: The driver of the luxury car had $15,000 in medical bills for a broken arm, while his passenger had $185,000 in medical bills for emergency surgery and recovery.

Like many Americans, Stephanie carries a 100/300/100 liability policy.

What is the total dollar value of the property damage Stephanie caused?

A spinner with 12 equally sized slices has 12 yellow slices. The dial is spun and stops on a slice at random. What is the
probability that the dial stops on a yellow slice?
Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.

Answers

Answer:

1/1

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason why is because the spinner has 12 slices and on that spinner there is 12 yellow slices meaning all the slices on the spinner are yellow.

This means it is a 100% chance to land on yellow but 100% aas a fraction is 100/100.

You can simplify 100/100 a hundred times to 99/99 to 98/98 you can keep doing it but it's lowest form is the lowest number besides zero and that is 1 so it's lowest form is 1 out of 1 or 1/1 or 100%.

Answer:

  1/8(7x +2) +3x = 4x +9

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of x will be smallest when it is most negative. Here, that will occur when the numerator of the rational solution for x is as large a positive number as possible, and the denominator is a small negative number.

If we call the spaces a, b, ..., g, then the value of x is ...

  x = (bg -ad)/(ac +b(e-f))

This is smallest (most negative) when bg is as large as possible (8·9), and ad is as small as possible (1·2). Then values for c, e, f can be chosen to make the denominator -1. The solution for x looks like ...

  x = (8·9 -1·2)/(1·7 +8(3 -4)) = 70/-1 = -70

The smallest possible value of x is -70. One way to obtain that value is ...

  1/8(7x +2) +3x = 4x +9

_____

There are numerous ways to obtain "indeterminate" results where the equation reduces to one with no solution. And there are a number of ways to have the solution be infinity: (ac-b(e-f)) = 0.

Find the value of each variable in the parallelogram.

Answers

Diagonals bisect eachother in a paralleogram

So

2u+2=5u-103u=12u=4

And

v/3=6v=6(3)v=18

Answer:

u = 4

v = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other (bisect means to divide into two equal parts).

   2u + 2 = 5u - 10

Add 10 to both sides:

⇒ 2u + 12 = 5u

Subtract 2u from both sides:

⇒ 12 = 3u

⇒ 3u = 12

Divide both sides by 3:

⇒ u = 4

   [tex]\sf \dfrac{v}{3}=6[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 3:

⇒ v = 18

Find the measure of angle RPF

Answers

Answer: 124°

Step-by-step explanation: Notice that angles CPF and RPB are vertical <'s.

Vertical angles are two angles that share a common

endpoint and whose sides form opposite rays.

Since these angles have the same measure,

we can setup the equation 4t + 88 = 2t + 72.

Now subtract 2t from both sides and we have 2t + 88 = 72.

Now subtract 88 from both sides to get 2t = -16.

Solving from here, we find that t = -8.

Now notice that <FPB is a straight angle which

means that it measures exactly 180 degrees.

So let's substitute a 4 into the measure of angle CPF.

So we have 4(-8) + 88 or -32 + 88 which is 56°.

Since FPC and CPB are a linear pair, we know that are supplementary.

If two angles are supplementary, then the sum of their measures is 180 degrees which means we take 180 minus the measure of <CPF.

So we have 180 - 56 which is 124°.

Now since <CPB and <FPR are vertical angles

So<FPR must also measure 124°
