Carmen planted some corn in the back yard and measures its height regularly. The last time she checked, the stalks were 52.6 inches tall. Now they are the same height. What is the percent of increase in the height of the stalks?

Answer:

-x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

a)  

 8x + 2 + (-9x + 7) = 8x + 2 - 9x + 7

                             = 8x - 9x + 2 + 7

                             = -x + 9

b) We can combine like terms. Like terms have same variable with same power. Here 8x and (-9x) have same variable 'x'. so, combine the coefficients of the like terms which give (-1).

8x - 9x = -1

Combine the constants. 2 + 7= 9

The value of the evaluated function f(x) = -3x² + 2x  at  

(i) f(-2) is -16   ;

(ii) f(a) is -3a² + 2a .

The Function is represented as : f(x) = -3x² + 2x  ;

(i) We have to evaluate the above function at f(-2),

So, we substitute x = -2 into the function:

we get ;

⇒ f(-2) = -3(-2)² + 2(-2)

⇒ f(-2) = -12 - 4 = -16  .

So ,  f(-2) = -16  .

(ii) Next we have to evaluate f(a),

So , we substitute x = a into the function:

⇒ f(a) = -3a² + 2a

So , f(a) = -3a² + 2a   .

The area of the figure is 596.625 in².

A rectangle is a two-dimensional shape where the length and width are different.

The area of a rectangle is given as:

Area = Length x width

We have,

We will consider the figure to have a rectangle and a circle.

Rectangle:

Length = 28 in

Breadth = 15 in

Area = 28 x 15 = 420 in²

Semicircle:

Diameter = 15 in

Radius = 7.5 in

Area = 1/2 πr²

= 1/2 x 3.14 x 7.5²

Area = 176.625/2

Area = 88.3125

There are two semicircles so,

= 2 x 88.3125

= 176.625 in²

Now,

Area of the figure.

b) The determination of the amount of current dividends that preferred stock should receive per year is $75,000.

Cumulative preferred stock is a special class of preferred stock that enjoys cumulative dividends.

Cumulative dividends imply that any year when sufficient dividends are not declared, the arrears are carried forward to subsequent years.

It is the opposite of non-cumulative preferred stock.

On the other hand, the common stockholders can only receive dividends after the preferred stockholders have been paid, including their cumulative dividends.

Number of shares = 25,000

Dividend rate = 2%

Par value = $150

Total cumulative preferred stock = $3,750,000 (25,000 x $150)

Annual dividend = $75,000 ($3,750,000 x 2%)

c. P(10.88 ≤ x ≤ 15.3) is 61.38%

d. P(4.72 ≤ x ≤ 12.46) is 99.45%

Probability is the measure of the likelihood of an event occurring. It is a way of quantifying uncertainty and predicting the likelihood of an outcome. In this question, we will use the normal distribution to calculate probabilities.

The mean is the center of the distribution, and the standard deviation measures the spread of the distribution.

a. P(x ≥ 12.5):

Using a standard normal distribution table, we find that the area to the right of 12.5 is 0.0668. This means that the probability of x being greater than or equal to 12.5 is 0.0668 or 6.68%.

b. P(x ≤ 9):

Using a standard normal distribution table, we find that the area to the left of 9 is 0.0228. This means that the probability of x being less than or equal to 9 is 0.0228 or 2.28%.

c. P(10.88 ≤ x ≤ 15.3):

Using a standard normal distribution table, we find that the area to the left of 15.3 is 0.9987 and the area to the left of 10.88 is 0.3849. Therefore, the area between 10.88 and 15.3 is

=> 0.9987 - 0.3849 = 0.6138.

This means that the probability of x being between 10.88 and 15.3 is 0.6138 or 61.38%.

d. P(4.72 ≤ x ≤ 12.46):

Using a standard normal distribution table, we find that the area to the left of 12.46 is 0.9946 and the area to the left of 4.72 is 0.0001. Therefore, the area between 4.72 and 12.46 is

=> 0.9946 - 0.0001 = 0.9945.

Six friends group is playing poker one night. They have a standard 52-card deck. So, here, total number of possible outcomes of game = 52

Now, the designated cards are , Queen of Clubs, 10 of Hearts. So,

a) Number of cards are in the deck that are not one of the designated cards

= 52 - 2 = 50

Number of cards that need to be dealt in order for each player to have 7 cards

= 5× 7 = 35

Thus total possible number of ways

= ⁵⁰C₃₅ = 2250829575120, which are ways to deal the cards without getting one of the designated cards.

b) Number of cards are in the deck = 52

Number of cards that need to be dealt in order for each player to have 7 cards = 5× 7 = 35

Which are ways to deal each player 7 cards, regardless of whether the designated cards come out.

c) The probability of a successful hand that will go all the way till everyone gets 7 cards is = Number of ways to deal the cards without getting one of the designated cards/Total number of ays to deal the cards

Answer:

To find y'(3), we need to use implicit differentiation to differentiate both sides of the equation with respect to x and then solve for y'.

Differentiating both sides with respect to x, we get:

(2x/25) + (2y/64) * (dy/dx) = 0

Now we can solve for dy/dx:

(2y/64) * (dy/dx) = -(2x/25)

dy/dx = -(2x/25) / (2y/64)

dy/dx = -32x/25y

To find y'(3), we need to substitute x=3 and y=6.4 into the expression for dy/dx:

y'(3) = -32(3)/(25)(6.4)

y'(3) = -0.3

Therefore, the value of y'(3) is -0.3

The value of y'(3) in (2x/25) + (2y/64) = 1, is  - 0.3

Finding the derivative of an implicit function is the process of implicit differentiation.

In other words, this method is utilized to discover the implicit derivative.

To find y'(3), After differentiating both sides of the equation with respect to x using implicit differentiation, we must next solve for y'.

Differentiating both sides with respect to x we get,

(2x/25) + (2y/64)×(dy/dx) = 0

Solving for dy/dx

(2y/64)×(dy/dx) = -(2x/25)

dy/dx = -(2x/25) / (2y/64)

dy/dx = -32x/25y

To find y'(3), Replacing x=3 and y=6.4 into the expression for dy/dx:

y'(3) = -32(3)/(25)(6.4)

y'(3) = -0.3

Therefore, the value of y'(3) is - 0.3

Regression analysis is a linear technique used to model the relationship between a scalar response and/or one or more explanatory variables, also known as the dependent and independent variables here.

Simple linear regression and multiple linear regression are two terms used to describe the process when there is only one explanatory variable present. This statement is different from multivariate linear regression, which thus predicts multiple correlated dependent variables as opposed to a single scalar variable present.

The first regression analysis technique that attracted a lot of research attention and was frequently applied in practical situations was linear regression. This is because models with linear rather than non-linear dependence on their unknown parameters are easier to fit, and it is also easier to determine the statistical properties of the resulting estimators.

"Information available from the question"

The base of a triangle is 8 ft. less than its height.

If the area is 120 [tex]ft^2.[/tex]

We have to find the base and the height of this triangle.

Now, According to the question:

Let the height be x then if the base is 8 ft. less, then the base is x - 8.

We know that:

Area of the triangle is :  (b × h)/2

Area of the triangle is : (x (x - 8)) /2

120 [tex]ft^2[/tex] = ([tex]x^{2} -8x[/tex])/2

240 = [tex]x^{2} -8x[/tex]

[tex]= > x^{2} -8x-240=0[/tex]

For solving equation, Use the quadratic formula :

x = (-b ± [tex]\sqrt{b^2-4ac}[/tex]) / 2a

a = 1

b = -8

c = -240

x = (-(-8) ± [tex]\sqrt{(-8)^2-4.1(-240)})/2.1[/tex]

By solving, we get

x = (8 ± 32)/2

We get the values :

x = 20 and x = -12

We know x = −12 can't be a solution as length can't be negative.

Base = x - 8

Base = 20 - 8

Base = 12
