A counterexample is x =

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

x=2

x+1=3

and 3 is a prime

Answer 2

Answer:

A counterexample is x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that x is a prime number, and x + 1 is not a prime number. However consider the number 3. We know that 3 is a prime number, as it is present as factors of 1 and itself. However 3 + 1 = 4 - which falls into the category of a composite number, as it can divide into 2 * 2. Therefore your counterexample could be x = 3.

It’s actually a rectangle. So looking at the two lines, they are called axis. The y axis is the vertical one while the x axis is the horizontal line. These are coordinates, where you have to place them onto the grid. For example, coordinates R(-4,-3) is one dot. The first number represents where it is located on the x axis (right or left) and the y axis represents up or down. The scale was One unit = one line so if you look at my drawing you’ll see that if all coordinates are placed, it will form a rectangle.

sanji has a room with a perimeter of 42.5 feet if she wants to hand a curtain along one full side of the room how long dose the curtain need to be

Answers

Answer:

The length of the curtain is 10.625 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the curtain to cover one side of the room depends on the shape of the room

Given a room shape of a square, we have;

Perimeter = 4 × Side length of the room

Length of the curtain = Side length of the room

Therefore;

Perimeter = 4 × Length of the curtain

42.5 feet = 4 × Length of the curtain

Length of the curtain = (42.5 feet)/4 = 10.625 feet

The length of the curtain = 10.625 feet.

Write an equation of the line below.

Answers

Answer: y = -2/5x -4

Step-by-step explanation:

First we can notice that the line is not going through the origin but is is going through the y-intercept which is -4.In this case the the equation of the line has be in slope intercept form as if  y=mx +b where only m and b is indicated and  m is the slope and b is the y intercept. So since we already know the y intercept is -4 we need to find the slope using  the points on the line.

The points (0,-4) and ( -5,-2)   lies on the line and we could use them to find the slope. To find the slope,we need to find the change in the y coordinates and divide it by the change in the x coordinates.

-4 -(-2) =  -2

0 - (-5) = 5      

slope:  -2/5

So since the slope is -2/5 and the y intercept is -4 then we will have the equation,

y= -2/5x - 4

Nearly x=-1.416

Or x=-0.416

Answer:

x=-1/3 or x = -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

6x²+11x+3=0

divide through by 6

x² +11x/6 + 3/6 =0

collect like terms that is those with x should be left on one side nd the one without x should be on the other side

x² +11x/6 = -1/2

add the square of the half of the co efficient of B i.e 11x/6 to both sides

(x+11/12)² = 121/144 -1/2

(x+11/12)² = 121-72/144

square root of both sides

x+11/12 =+or - √49/144

x= -11/12 ± 7/12

x= -1/3 or x= -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Area of Parallelogram Formula

A=bxh

Step 2: Plug in the information and solve

A=7mx8m

A=[tex]56m^2[/tex]

Therefore the area of the parallelogram is [tex]56m^2[/tex]

Answer:

56 Meters Squared

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a Parallelogram is: [tex]A=b*h[/tex]

We are given the base of 7 meters and the height of 8 meters.

[tex]A=7*8\\\\A=\boxed{56}[/tex]

The area of the parallelogram is 56 square meters.  

A researcher at a major clinic wishes to estimate the proportion of the adult population of the United States that has sleep deprivation. How large a sample is needed in order to be 95% confident that the sample proportion will not differ from the true proportion by more than 4%?

Answers

Answer: n = 600.25 ≈ 601 ( sample size)

the minimum sample size of the adults in United State who have sleep deprivation  is 601

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

the confidence level = 95% = 0.05

the Margin of error E = 4% = 0.04

∴  level of significance ∝ = 1 - C.L

∝ = 1 - (95/100)

= 0.05

Z∝/2 = 0.05/2 = 0.025

Z-critical value at 95% confidence level is OR level of significance at 0.025 = 1.96 (z-table)

Now to calculate the sample size, we say

n = (Z(critical) / M.E )² P ( 1 - P)

now we substitute

n =  (1.96 / 0.04)² × 0.5 ( 1 - 0.5)

n = 2401 × 0.5 × 0.5

n = 600.25 ≈ 601

Therefore the minimum sample size of the adults in United State who have sleep deprivation  is 601

Using the formula for the margin of error, it is found that a sample of 601 is needed.

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.95[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]z = 1.96[/tex].

In this problem:

There is no previous estimate, hence [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex] is used.The minimum sample size is n for which M = 0.04, hence:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.04 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5(0.5)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.04\sqrt{n} = 1.96(0.5)[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96(0.5)}{0.04}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.96(0.5)}{0.04}\right)^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 600.25[/tex]

Rounding up, a sample of 601 is needed.

Let f(x) = 5x + 12. Find f−1(x)

Answers

Answer:

(x-12)/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

f⁻¹(x) = (x - 12)/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of f(x), you have to switch the places of the x and y.  You then have to rearrange the equation so that it is equal to y.

f(x) = 5x + 12

x = 5y + 12

x - 12 = (5y + 12) - 12

x - 12 = 5y

(x - 12)/5 = 5y/5

(x - 12)/5 = y

f⁻¹(x) = (x - 12)/5

Does the function model exponential growth or decay f(x)=3*(7/4)^x

Answers

Answer:

Exponential functions are patterns that get continuously multiplied by some number. It's exponential growth when the base of our exponential is bigger than 1, which means those numbers get bigger. It's exponential decay when the base of our exponential is in between 1 and 0 and those numbers get smaller.

Answer:

It models exponential growth.

Step-by-step explanation:

7/4 > 1, so f(x) grows at an exponential rate as x increases.

A graph of f(x) is attached below, showing the exponential growth.

The absolute value for x = 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Leave |x + 3| alone

2/3|x + 3| = 11/6 + 1/2 ➡ 2/3|x + 3| = 14/6

|x + 3| = 14/6 ÷ 2/3 ➡ |x + 3| = 7/2 now we write two equations

x + 3 = 7/2 or x + 3 = -7/2 first we subtract 3 from all

x = 1/6 or x = -13/6 since we are asked to find the absolute value, the answer would be 1/6

What is the perimeter of the given figure? A.19 pie symbol inches B. 24+ 5 pie symbol inches C.29 pie symbol inches D.14 + 5 pie Symbol inches

Answers

Answer:

Perimeter of the shape = (14+5π )inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape is made up of a semicircle and a right angled triangle.

Perimeter of the shape = perimeter of a semicircle + perimeter of the right angle triangle.

Since perimeter of a circle = 2πr

Perimeter of a semicircle = 2πr/2 = πr wherr r is the radius

r = 10in/2 = 5in

Perimeter of the semicircle = 5π in

Perimeter of a triangle = s1+s2+s3 where s1, s2 and s3 are the sides of the triangle.

We only have 2 sdies of the triangle, hence we need to get the third side using pythagoras theorem.

let s1 = 10in, s2 = 6in

10² = 6²+s3²

s3 = √10²-6²

s3 = √100-36

s3 = √64

s3 = 8in

Perimeter of the triangle = 10in+6in+8in = 24in

Perimeter of the shape = (24in + 5π in) - 10in (10 in was subtracted since it is common to both shapes)

Perimeter of the shape = (14+5π )inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A [tex]\triangle GHJ[/tex] in which

[tex]\angle GHJ = 90^\circ[/tex]

Hypotenuse = 10

Length of another side = 5

To find:

HJ = ?

Solution:

Kindly refer to the image attached in the answer area.

We know that there are only 3 sides in a triangle.

We are given hypotenuse is 10.

i.e. GJ = 10
