Answer:
-15
Step-by-step explanation:
If 'a' and 'b' are zeros of the quadratic f(x), its factored form is ...
f(x) = (x -a)(x -b)
and its standard form is ...
f(x) = x^2 -(a+b)x +ab
This tells us that ...
a+b = -7
ab = 7
for the given quadratic.
Then the expression of interest is ...
[tex]a^{-1}+b^{-1}-2ab=\dfrac{1}{a}+\dfrac{1}{b}-2ab=\dfrac{a+b}{ab}-2ab\\\\=\dfrac{-7}{7}-2\cdot7=-1-14=\boxed{-15}[/tex]
Data with 950 observations are drawn from a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 78 and a standard deviation of 19. Approximately how many observations are more than 116
Answer: there are 22 observations that are more than 116.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the random variable.
Given: Sample size = 950
Mean = 78
Standard deviation = 19
The probability that the observations are more than 116 is given by :-
[tex]P(X>116)=P(\dfrac{X-mean}{standard \ deviation}>\dfrac{116-78}{19})\\\\=P(Z>2)\\\\=1-P(Z<2)\\\\=1-0.9772\ \ \ [\text{Using p-value calculator}]\\\\=0.0228[/tex]
Number of observations are more than 116 = [tex]0.0228\times950[/tex]
[tex]=21.66\approx22[/tex]
Hence, there are 22 observations that are more than 116.
Find the fifth term and the nth term of the geometric sequence whose initial term, a, and common ratio, r, are given.
a = 8; r = -5
Answer:
[tex]a_n = 8(-5)^{n-1}[/tex]
The fifth term of the sequence is 5000.
Step-by-step explanation:
Geometric sequence:
In a geometric sequence, the quotient between consecutive terms is always the same, called common ratio. The nth term of a geometric sequence is:
[tex]a_n = a_1(r)^{n-1}[/tex]
a = 8; r = -5
Thus:
[tex]a_n = a_1(r)^{n-1}[/tex]
[tex]a_n = 8(-5)^{n-1}[/tex]
Fifth term:
This is [tex]a_5[/tex]. So
[tex]a_5 = 8(-5)^{5-1} = 5000[/tex]
The fifth term of the sequence is 5000.
Doris has a fish pond 15 by 18 ft. She wants to put grass in a strip of uniform with around the pond. She has enough grass seed for 234 ft squared. How wide will the strip be? Round your answer to the nearest tenth, when appropriate
Check the picture below.
so if we simply subtract the strip area with the pond and the area of the pond only, what's leftover is the area of the strip alone, so
[tex]\stackrel{\textit{area of the grass \underline{with} pond}}{(15+2x)(18+2x)}-\stackrel{\textit{area of the pond}}{(15)(18)}=\stackrel{\textit{their difference}}{232} \\\\\\ 270+30x+16x+4x^2-270=232\implies 46x+4x^2=232 \\\\\\ 23x+2x^2=116\implies 2x^2+23x-116=0[/tex]
[tex]~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{quadratic formula} \\\\ \stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{2}x^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{+23}x\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{-116}=0 \qquad \qquad x= \cfrac{ - b \pm \sqrt { b^2 -4 a c}}{2 a} \\\\\\ x = \cfrac{-23\pm \sqrt{23^2-4(2)(-116)}}{2(2)}\implies x = \cfrac{-23\pm \sqrt{1457}}{4}[/tex]
now, the negative root will simply yield a negative value, which is not applicable here, so we'll only use the positive root, since it's the only feasible one for the phenomena
[tex]x = \cfrac{-23+ \sqrt{1457}}{4}\implies x \approx 3.792667341996157\implies \stackrel{\textit{rounded up}}{x = 3.8}[/tex]
Answer:
3 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the width of the grass strip.
So the length of the grass strip=18+2x
Area of the grass strip =2(18+2x)(x)+2(15)(x)=2(18x+2x^2)+2(15x)=(36x+4x^2)+30x=4x^2+66x^2
But the available grass seed is enough for 234 ft squared
4x^2+66x=234
4x^2+66x-234=0
x={-66+-[(66)^2–4(4)(-234)]^1/2}/2(4)
x={-66+-[4356+3744]^1/2}/8={-66+-[8100]^1/2}/8
x={-66+-(90)}/8
Two values of x: x=(-66+90)/8=24/8=3 and the other value of x=(-66–90)/8=-19.5. Adopt the positive value of x=3 feet (answer)
So the width of the strip is 3 feet.
Check for the area of grass strip around the fish pond : Area=2(18+6)(3)+2(15)(3)=2(24)(3)+90=144+90=234 square feet
Other area check =4x^2+66x=4(3)^2+66(3)=36+198=234 square feet
Therefore the strip is 3 feet wide

Find the measure of the arc or angle indicated. Assume that lines which appear tangent are tangent.
Given:
In the given circle, the measure of major arc TV is 220 degrees.
To find:
The measure of angle TUV.
Solution:
In a circle, the measure central angle of arc is equal to its corresponding arc measure and according to central angle theorem, the measure of subtended angle on an arc is half of the measure of central angle of that arc.
So, the measure of subtended angle is half of the measure of its corresponding arc.
[tex]m\angle TUV=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \text{Measure of major arc TV}[/tex]
[tex]m\angle TUV=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 220^\circ[/tex]
[tex]m\angle TUV=110^\circ[/tex]
Therefore, the measure of angle TUV is 110 degrees.
You roll a die with the sample space s=1,2,3,4,5,6. you define A as (1,2,4) B as (2,3,4,5,6) C as (3,4) and D as (2,4,5). Determine which of the following events are exhaustive and/or mutually exhaustive.
Exhaustive Mutually exclusive
A and B
A and C
A and D
Band C
Answer:
A and B are exhaustive.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]A = \{1,2,4\}[/tex]
[tex]B = \{2,3,4,5,6\}[/tex]
[tex]C =\{3,4\}[/tex]
[tex]D = \{2,4,5\}[/tex]
Solving (a): The mutually exclusive events
These are events that have no common or mutual elements
Events A to D are not mutually exclusive because each of the events have at least 1 common element with one another.
Solving (b): Exhaustive events.
Two events X and Y are said to be exhaustive if:
[tex]S = P(X\ n\ Y)[/tex]
i.e. if the sample space equals the intersection of X and Y
For events A to D, we have:
[tex]A\ n\ B = \{1,2,3,4,5,6\}[/tex]
and the sample space is:
[tex]S = \{1,2,3,4,5,6\}[/tex]
By comparison;
[tex]A\ n\ B = S[/tex]
Hence, A and B are exhaustive.

If a book costs N10,000, at what price will the book be sold to make a profit of 15%?
Answer:
11,500
Step-by-step explanation:
cost price of a book (CP) = 10000
profit percent = 15%
selling price of a book (SP) = ?
SP = CP + profit% of CP
=10000 + 15 / 100 * 10000
=1000000 + 150000/100
=1150000/100
=11500
Therefore, the book will cost 11,500

Seven times a number decreased by three-fourths of the same number is 25. What is the number?
Answer:
103/28
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be 'x'
Equation:-
7x - 3/4 = 25
7x = 25 + 3/4
7x = 100/4 + 3/4
7x = 103/4
x = 103/(4 x 7)
x = 103/28
Answer:
if we make this a algebraic equation it will look like this
7x-3/4x=25
6.25x=25
25 divided by 6.25=4
x=4
to check
28-3=25

During each summer, many families spend part of their vacation time at a beach along the East or West Coast. Due to the popularity of movies like Jaws and The Shallows, and publicity about recent shark attacks on surfers, swimmers, snorkelers, and spearfishermen, Americans have become increasingly concerned about water activities. Research suggests that 58% of all shark attacks involve surfers. One thousand records of shark attacks are selected, and each is categorized by the victim group. Identify the population, sample, and variable for the study.
Population Sample Variable
a. all families who spend part of their vacation at a beach along the East or West coast
b. Americans who are concerned about water activities
c. the percentage of shark attacks that involve surfers
d. the set of groups to which the victims of shark attacks belong
e. all shark attacks
f. the 1000 records of shark attacks that were examined
Answer:
Population = e. all shark attacks.
Sample = f. the 1000 records of shark attacks that were examined.
Variable = d. the set of groups to which the victims of shark attacks belong.
Step-by-step explanation:
The population in a particular study refers to the entire set of people to which the research study encompasses, that is all those who are eligible to be a part of the study or those who the study relates to and the outcome of the study Cann be applied to them. In the research study described above, the population of the study is all events of shark attacks.
The sample is a subset of the larger population ; the subset selected in the scenario above is the 1000 records examined out of all the events of shark attacks.
The variable in the study may refer to a set of independent variables which is according to the scenario is the set of groups to which victims of shark attack belong.
Oakton Manufacturing makes two types of rocking chairs specifically designed for men and women known as the His and Hers models. Each chair requires four legs and two rockers but differing numbers of wooden dowels. Each His chair requires four short dowels and eight long dowels while each Hers chair requires eight short dowels and four long dowels. Each His chair contributes $10 in profit while each Hers chair contributes $12. The company has 900 legs, 400 rockers, 1200 short dowels, and 1056 long dowels available.

Which of the following are situations that can be modeled with a quadratic function? Select all that apply.
Consider rolling two fair dice and observing the number of spots on the resulting upward face of each one. Letting A be the event that at least one of the dice results in 6 spots on its upward face, and E be the event that exactly one of the dice results in 6 spots on its upward face, give the value of P(E|A). (Note: This value can be easily obtained by looking at p. 2.3 of the class notes and using a reduced sample space. In fact, such an approach makes the solution so trivial, that for this problem, you don’t have to give any justification for your answer.)
Answer:
[tex]P(E|A)= \frac{10}{11}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Two rolls of die
[tex]E \to[/tex] one of the outcomes is 6
[tex]A \to[/tex] atleast one is 6
Required
P(E|A)
First, list out the outcome of each
[tex]E = \{(1,6),(2,6),(3,6),(4,6),(5,6),(6,1),(6,2),(6,3),(6,4),(6,5)\}[/tex]
[tex]A = \{(1,6),(2,6),(3,6),(4,6),(5,6),(6,1),(6,2),(6,3),(6,4),(6,5),(6,6)\}[/tex]
So:
[tex]P(E|A)= \frac{n(E\ n\ A)}{n(A)}[/tex]
Where:
[tex]E\ n\ A = \{(1,6),(2,6),(3,6),(4,6),(5,6),(6,1),(6,2),(6,3),(6,4),(6,5)\}[/tex]
[tex]n(E\ n\ A) = 10[/tex]
[tex]n(A) = 11[/tex]
So:
[tex]P(E|A)= \frac{10}{11}[/tex]

Answer:
y = 73 / -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given ;
9x - 6y = 19
Where, x = - 6
Solve for y
9x - 6y = 19
plug the value of x
9 ( -6 ) - 6y = 19
- 54 - 6y = 19
Add 54 to both sides
- 54 + 54 - 6y = 19 + 54
-6y = 73
divide both side by -6
-6y / -6 = 73 / -6
y = 73 / -6
