(please show your steps)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

divide through by the coefficient of [tex]x^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5x^{2} }{5}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{16x}{5} + \frac{-40}{5} = \frac{8}{5}[/tex]

[tex]x^{2} +\frac{16}{5}x -8 =\frac{8}{5}[/tex]

[tex]x^{2} +\frac{16}{5} x = \frac{8}{5} +8[/tex]

[tex]x^{2} + \frac{16}{5} x =\frac{48}{5}[/tex]

Add half of the square of the coefficient of x  to both sides [tex](\frac{1}{2} X \frac{16}{5} ) ^{2}[/tex]

[tex]x^{2} + \frac{16}{5}x + (\frac{1}{2} X \frac{16}{5} )^{2} =[/tex] [tex]\frac{48}{5} +(\frac{1}{2} X \frac{16}{5} )^{2}[/tex]

[tex]x^{2} +\frac{16}{5} x +(\frac{16}{10}) ^{2} =\frac{48}{5} +\frac{64}{25}[/tex]

[tex](x +\frac{16}{10})^{2} =\frac{304}{25}[/tex]

[tex]x +\frac{16}{10} =[/tex]±[tex]\sqrt{\frac{304}{25} }[/tex]

[tex]x = -\frac{16}{10}[/tex] ± [tex]\sqrt{\frac{304}{25} }[/tex]

[tex]x=-\frac{16}{10} + \sqrt{\frac{304}{25} }[/tex] or[tex]-\frac{16}{10} - \sqrt{\frac{304}{25} }[/tex]

The height of the sail on a boat is 7 feet less than 3 times the length of its base. If the
The area of the sail is 68 square feet, find its height and the length of the base.

Answers

Answer:

Base=8 feet

Height=17 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Base=x

Height=3x-7

Area=68 square feet

Area of the sail boat=1/2 * base * height

68 = 1/2 * x * (3x-7)

Cross product

68 * 2 =(1) * (x) * (3x-7)

136 = 3x^2 - 7x

3x^2 - 7x - 136=0

Using quadratic formula

x= -b +or- √b^2 - 4ac / 2a

= -(-7) +or- √(-7)^2 - (4)(3)(-136) / 2(3)

= 7 +or- √49 - (-1632) / 6

= 7 +or- √49+1632) / 6

= 7 +or- √1681 / 6

=7 +or- 41 /6

x= 7+41 / 6 or 7-41 / 6

=48/6 or -34/6

=8 or -17/3

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Base=x

Height=3x-7

Area=68 square feet

Area of the sail boat=1/2 * base * height

68 = 1/2 * x * (3x-7)

Cross product

68 * 2 =(1) * (x) * (3x-7)

136 = 3x^2 - 7x

3x^2 - 7x - 136=0

Base of the boat can't be a negative value

Therefore,

Base = x = 8 feet

Height= 3x-7

=3(8)-7

=24-7

a child's toy train collection contains 5 engines, 5 red cars, 7 blue cars, and 2 cabooses. What is the probability of randomly selecting pieces to make a three-part train of engine, red car, caboose?

Answers

Answer:

25/2907

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability = Expected outcome/Total outcome of events

If a child's toy train collection contains 5 engines, 5 red cars, 7 blue cars, and 2 cabooses, the total collection will be 5+5+7+2 = 19 total collection

Note that if we are choosing this parts to make part engine, his car parts will no longer be replaced. Hence this is a problem of probability without replacement

If we randomly select pieces to make a three-part train of engine, red car and caboose, this can be chosen in that order and the following ways;

Probability of choosing  an engine = 5/19

Probability of choosing a red car = 5/18 (note that the total collection has reduced by 1 since we didn't replace the engine)

Probability of choosing  a carboose= 2/17 (the car chosen was not replaced as well)

Therefore the probability of randomly selecting pieces to make a three-part train of engine, red car, caboose is the product of the three probability calculated above i.e 5/19 * 5/18 * 2/17 = 50/5814

= 25/2907

Answers

Answer:

c. 4,120 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

2 tons = 4000 pounds

1920 ounces = 120 pounds

The amount in pounds of 2 tons 1, 920 ounces by unit conversion will be 4,120 pounds thus, option (C) is correct.

What is unit conversion?

To convert any unit into another is called a unit conversion.

In order to convert units, we need to care about their dimensions their dimension should not be changed.

It is known that,

1 tone = 2000 pounds

2 tons = 4000 pounds

It is also known that,

1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds

1, 920 ounces = 120 pounds.

Total = 4000 + 120 = 4, 120 pounds

Hence "The amount in pounds of 2 tons 1, 920 ounces by unit conversion will be 4,120 pounds".

which variable is the input variable and which is the output variable.

Answers

Answer: The variable in the vertical axis (or y-axis) is the output

The variable in the horizontal axis (or x-axis) is the input.

Step-by-step explanation:

Usually, a graph of a function y = f(x) is represented in an X-Y coordinate axis.

An X-Y coordinate axis is conformed by two perpendicular lines, one vertical (y-axis) and one horizontal (x-axis)

The vertical axis (or the y-axis) is the output, and the horizontal axis (or the x-axis) is the input.

This method will work almost always, as is standardized that the x-axis corresponds to the input, and the y-axis corresponds to the output.

Answers

Answer:

P(x) = 3x - 150

Step-by-step explanation:

● P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

We khow that:

● R(x) = 5x

● C(x) = 2x + 150

● P(x) = 5x -(2x+150)

● P(x) = 5x - 2x -150

● P(x) = 3x - 150

The profit function of P(x)  is 3x - 150.

It is required to find profit function of P(x).

What is function?

A function is defined as a relation between a set of inputs having one output each. function is a relationship between inputs where each input is related to exactly one output. Every function has a domain and codomain or range. A function is generally denoted by f(x) where x is the input.

Given :

Daily revenue

R(x) = 5x where x represents the number of customers that visit the gym each day.

C(x) = 2x + 150

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)...(i)

Put the value of R(x) and C(x) in equation ..(i)

P(x) = 5x -(2x+150)

P(x) = 5x - 2x -150

P(x) = 3x - 150

Therefore, the profit function of P(x)  is 3x - 150.

What is the probability that a household spends between $4000 and $6000?c. What is the range of spending for the 3% of households with the highest daily transportationcost?

Answers

Answer:

(a) The standard deviation of the amount spent is $3229.18.

(b) The probability that a household spends between $4000 and $6000 is 0.2283.

(c) The range of spending for 3% of households with the highest daily transportation cost is $12382.86 or more.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the average annual amount American households spend on daily transportation is $6312 (Money, August 2001). Assume that the amount spent is normally distributed.

(a) It is stated that 5% of American households spend less than $1000 for daily transportation.

Let X = the amount spent on daily transportation

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

                          Z  =  [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\mu[/tex] = average annual amount American households spend on daily transportation = $6,312

           [tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation

Now, 5% of American households spend less than $1000 on daily transportation means that;

                      P(X < $1,000) = 0.05

                      P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{\$1000-\$6312}{\sigma}[/tex] ) = 0.05

                      P(Z < [tex]\frac{\$1000-\$6312}{\sigma}[/tex] ) = 0.05

In the z-table, the critical value of z which represents the area of below 5% is given as -1.645, this means;

                           [tex]\frac{\$1000-\$6312}{\sigma}=-1.645[/tex]                

                            [tex]\sigma=\frac{-\$5312}{-1.645}[/tex]  = 3229.18

So, the standard deviation of the amount spent is $3229.18.

(b) The probability that a household spends between $4000 and $6000 is given by = P($4000 < X < $6000)

      P($4000 < X < $6000) = P(X < $6000) - P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] $4000)

 P(X < $6000) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{\$6000-\$6312}{\$3229.18}[/tex] ) = P(Z < -0.09) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 0.09)

                                                            = 1 - 0.5359 = 0.4641

 P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] $4000) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

                                                            = 1 - 0.7642 = 0.2358  

Therefore, P($4000 < X < $6000) = 0.4641 - 0.2358 = 0.2283.

(c) The range of spending for 3% of households with the highest daily transportation cost is given by;

                    P(X > x) = 0.03   {where x is the required range}

                    P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] > [tex]\frac{x-\$6312}{3229.18}[/tex] ) = 0.03

                    P(Z > [tex]\frac{x-\$6312}{3229.18}[/tex] ) = 0.03

In the z-table, the critical value of z which represents the area of top 3% is given as 1.88, this means;

                           [tex]\frac{x-\$6312}{3229.18}=1.88[/tex]                

                         [tex]{x-\$6312}=1.88\times 3229.18[/tex]  

                          x = $6312 + 6070.86 = $12382.86

So, the range of spending for 3% of households with the highest daily transportation cost is $12382.86 or more.
