Find the area of the irregular figure. Round to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]67.5\text{ [square units]}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The composite figure consists of one rectangle and two triangles. We can add up the area of these individual shapes to find the total area of the irregular figure.

Formulas:

Area of rectangle with base [tex]b[/tex] and height [tex]h[/tex]: [tex]A=bh[/tex] Area of triangle with base [tex]b[/tex] and height [tex]h[/tex]: [tex]A=\frac{1}{2}bh[/tex]

By definition, the base and height must intersect at a 90 degree angle.

The rectangle has a base of 10 and a height of 5. Therefore, its area is [tex]A=10\cdot 5=50[/tex].

The smaller triangle to the left of the rectangle has a base of 2 and a height of 5. Therefore, its area is [tex]A=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 2\cdot 5=5[/tex].

Finally, the larger triangle on top of the rectangle has a base of 5 and a height of 5. Therefore, its area is [tex]A=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 5\cdot 5=12.5[/tex].

Thus, the area of the total irregular figure is:

[tex]50+5+12.5=\boxed{67.5\text{ [square units]}}[/tex]

State sales tax y is directly proportional to retail price x. An item that sells for 156 dollars has a sales tax of 14.42 dollars. Find a mathematical model that gives the amount of sales tax y in terms of the retail price x .

What is the sales tax on a 320 dollars purchase.

Answers

Answer:

The sales tax on a 320 dollars purchase is of $29.6.

Step-by-step explanation:

State sales tax y is directly proportional to retail price x.

This means that:

[tex]y = cx[/tex]

In which c is the constant of proportionality.

An item that sells for 156 dollars has a sales tax of 14.42 dollars.

This means that [tex]x = 156, y = 14.42[/tex]. We use this to find c. So

[tex]y = cx[/tex]

[tex]14.42 = 156c[/tex]

[tex]c = \frac{14.42}{156}[/tex]

[tex]c = 0.0924[/tex]

Then

[tex]y = 0.0924x[/tex]

What is the sales tax on a 320 dollars purchase?

y when [tex]x = 320[/tex]. So

[tex]y = 0.0924(320) = 29.6[/tex]

The sales tax on a 320 dollars purchase is of $29.6.

Answers

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

If the quadrilateral ABCD is dilated by a scale factor 'k' to form quadrilateral A'B'C'D',

Scale factor = [tex]\frac{\text{Length of one side of the Image}}{\text{Length of one side of the original}}[/tex]

k = [tex]\frac{BA'}{BA}[/tex]

Distance between B(2, -5) and A(-1, -1) = [tex]\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

                                                               = [tex]\sqrt{(2+1)^2+(-5+1)^2}[/tex]

                                                               = 5 units

Distance between B(2, -5) and A'(-5.5, 5) = [tex]\sqrt{(-5.5-2)^2+(5+5)^2}[/tex]

                                                                    = [tex]\sqrt{(-7.5)^2+(10)^2}[/tex]

                                                                    = 12.5 units

Scale factor 'k' = [tex]\frac{12.5}{5}[/tex]

k = [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Therefore, ABCD is dilated by a scale factor [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex] about point B.

BA and it's image BA' are on the same line and passes through center of dilation B.

Similarly, lines CD and C'D' will be parallel because they do not pass through center of dilation.

Therefore, Option (A) will be the correct option.

If the first term is less than 20, find how many terms are required to give

a sum of 960.

Answers

Answer: [tex]n=13[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Sum of the first 10 terms is equal to sum of 20, 21, and 22 term

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{10}{2}[2a+(10-1)d]=[a+19d]+[a+20d]+[a+21d]\\\\\Rightarrow 5[2a+9d]=3a+60d\\\Rightarrow 10a+45d=3a+60d\\\Rightarrow 7a=15d[/tex]

No of terms to give a sum of 960

[tex]\Rightarrow 960=\dfrac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)d]\\\\\Rightarrow 1920=n[2a+(n-1)\cdot \dfrac{7}{15}a]\\\\\Rightarrow 28,800=n[30a+7a(n-1)]\\\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{28,800}{n[30+7n-7]}\\\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{28,800}{n[23+7n]}[/tex]

Value of first term is less than 20

[tex]\therefore \dfrac{28,800}{n[23+7n]}<20\\\\\Rightarrow 28,800<20n[23+7n]\\\Rightarrow 0<460n+140n^2-28,800\\\Rightarrow 140n^2+460n-28,800>0\\\\\Rightarrow n>12.79\\\\\text{For integer value }\\\Rightarrow n=13[/tex]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

In the previous answer halfway through they used the equation: 960 = (n÷2)×(2a+(n-1)×(7a÷15))

Using this equation we can substitute an number to replace n, the higher the number is the smaller a would be.

When we substitute 15 into a, then it leaves us with the answer to be a = 15 which is a positive integer and also is smaller than 20, this then let’s us know that 15 is how many terms can be summed up to make 960.

To double check this answer you can find that d = 7 by changing the a into 15 in the formula 7a/15 (found in the previous answer.

Then in the expression: (n÷2)×(2a+(n-1)×d)

substitute:

n = 14 (must be an even number for the equation to work)

a = 15

d = 7

This will give you an answer of 847, but this is only 14 terms as we changed n into 14. To add the final term you need to complete the following equation: 847+(a+(n-1)×d)

substituting:

n = 15

a = 15

d = 7

This will give you the answer of 960, again proving that it takes 15 terms to sum together to make the number 960.

I hope this has helped you.

A small radio transmitter broadcasts in a 69 mile radius. If you drive along a straight line from a city 93 miles north of the transmitter to a second city 78 miles east of the transmitter, during how much of the drive will you pick up a signal from the transmitter?

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

We have A small radio transmitter that broadcasts in a 69-mile radius. If you drive along a straight line from a city 93 miles north of the transmitter to a second city 78 miles east of the transmitter.

Thus,

The distance that you get reception is the length of the chord created by the intersection of the circle defining the edge of transmission and the line defining the car trip.

 x2 + y2 = 69²               this is the circle

And,

The Transmitter at the origin

City to the north at (0,93)  & City to the east at (78,0)  

the Slope is M=(-93/78)

Intercept is B= y - mx ⇒  93 - (-93/78)(0) = 93

The equation of the line between the cities is y = (-93/78)x + 93

y = -93x/78 + 93           this is the line

Now, Solve the above two Equations

The intersection is gotten from the picture or solving:

x^2 + [(-93/78)*x + 93]^2 = 69^2

on solving we get, the points approximately are: (67.952,11.98 ) and (23.6277, 64.82)

Now,

From the Pythagorean theorem the total distance of the trip is:  

d1 = √(93^2 + 78^2) ≈ 121.37miles  

And the distance when the signal is picked up is:

d2 =√ [(67.952-23.627)^2 + (64.82 - 11.98)^2] ≈ 68.96 miles

You will pick up a signal from the transmitter in (d2/d1)*100 = 56% of the drive.

Step-by-step explanation:

For simple interest,

I = prt

where I = interest,

p = principal (amount deposited)

r = annual rate of interest

t = time in years

We have r = 2% = 0.02

p = $3,000

I = $420

We need to find t

I = prt

420 = 3000 * 0.02 * t

420 = 60t

t = 420/60

t = 7

Matthew participates in a study that is looking at how confident students at SUNY Albany are. The mean score on the scale is 50.

a) 93.32%
b) 6.68%
c) 0.07%
d) 43.32%

Answers

Answer:

b) 6.68%

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The mean score on the scale is 50. The distribution has a standard deviation of 10.

This means that [tex]\mu = 50, \sigma = 10[/tex]

Matthew scores a 65. What percentage of people could be expected to score the same as Matthew or higher on this scale?

The proportion is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 65. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{65 - 50}{10}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9332.

1 - 0.9332 = 0.0668

0.0668*100% = 6.68%

So the correct answer is given by option b.

A statistician calculates that 8% of Americans own a Rolls Royce. If the statistician is right, what is the probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%

Answers

Answer:

0.007 = 0.7% probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

A statistician calculates that 8% of Americans own a Rolls Royce.

This means that [tex]p = 0.08[/tex]

Sample of 595:

This means that [tex]n = 595[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = p = 0.08[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.08*0.92}{595}} = 0.0111[/tex]

What is the probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%?

Proportion above 8% + 3% = 11% or below 8% - 3% = 5%. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are equal, and so we find one of them and multiply by 2.

Probability the proportion is less than 5%:

P-value of Z when X = 0.05. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.05 - 0.08}{0.0111}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.7[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.7[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0035

2*0.0035 = 0.0070

0.007 = 0.7% probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%

Find the union {6, 11, 15} U Ø​

Answers

Answer:  {6, 11, 15}

Explanation:

The Ø​ means "empty set". It's the set with nothing inside it, not even 0.

We can write Ø​ as { } which is a pair of curly braces with nothing between them.

The rule is that if we union any set A with Ø​, then we'll get set A

A U Ø​ = A

Ø​ U A = A

In a sense, it's analogous to adding 0. So it's like saying A+0 = A and 0+A = A.

So that's why {6, 11, 15} U Ø​ = {6, 11, 15}

There's nothing to add onto the set {6, 11, 15}, so we just get the same thing back again.

Using the conditions for continuity, we find that the function D.) is continuous.

How to check if a function is continuous?

A function f(x) is said to be continuous at a point x = a, in its domain if the following three conditions are satisfied:

f(a) exists (i.e. the value of f(a) is finite)the right-hand limit = left-hand limit, and both are finite.right-hand limit = left-hand limit = f(a)

Since for -4 <= x < -2, -2 <= x < 4 and 4 <= x <= 8, the function f(x) is defined by straight lines , the function will be continuous for all x ≠ -2 and 4. Now for x = -2, 4, let us check all the three conditions:

A.

f(-2) = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2

left hand limit = -2 + 6 = 4

right hand limit = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2

Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit, the function is not continuous at x = -2. No need to check further.

B.

f(-2) = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2

left hand limit = -2 -2 = -4

right hand limit = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2

Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit, the function is not continuous at x = -2. No need to check further.

C.

f(-2) = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2

left hand limit = -2 + 4 = 2

right hand limit = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2

Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit is equal to f(-2), the function is continuous at x = -2.

f(4) = 25 - 3*4 = 13

left hand limit = 0.5 * (4)² = 8

right hand limit = 25 - 3*4 = 13

Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit, the function is not continuous at x = 4.

D.

f(-2) = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2

left hand limit = -2 + 4 = 2

right hand limit = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2

Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit is equal to f(-2), the function is continuous at x = -2.

f(4) = 20 - 3*4 = 8

left hand limit = 0.5 * (4)² = 8

right hand limit = 20 - 3*4 = 8

Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit is equal to f(-2), the function is continuous at x = 4.

Thus, the function is continuous.

P = 4(5.5) + 1  + 2(5.5) + 12 + 5.5 + 5.5

P = 22 + 1 + 11 + 12 + 11

P = 23 + 23 + 11

P = 57

Solve the given system by the substitution method
5x + y 19
7x-2y = 13​

Answers

Answer:

x = 3 , y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + y = 19 --------- ( 1 )

=> y = 19 - 5x

7x - 2y = 13 ------------ ( 2 )

Substitute y in ( 2 ) :

                        7x - 2( 19 - 5x ) = 13

                        7x - 38 + 10x = 13

                        17x = 13 + 38

                        17x = 51

                           x = 3

Substitute x in ( 1 ) :

                           5x + y = 19

                           5( 3 ) + y = 19

                            15 + y = 19

                              y = 19 - 15

                               y = 4

Someone pls help me due in 30 min. Given that x and y show inverse variation, complete the table.

Answers

Answer:

1st blank=[tex]y_{1}[/tex]

2nd blank=[tex]x_{1}[/tex]

3rd blank= [tex]y_{2}[/tex]

3*27=81

so 1*[tex]y_{1}[/tex]=81

hence [tex]y_{1}[/tex]=81

9* [tex]x_{1}[/tex]= 81

[tex]x_{1}[/tex]=9

27*[tex]y_{2}[/tex]=81

[tex]y_{2}[/tex]=3

Thus solved.

Hope this helps.

Midwest Publishing publishes textbooks. The company uses an 800 number where people can call to ask questions about the textbooks and place orders. Currently, there are 2 representatives handling inquiries. Calls occurring when both lines are in use get a busy signal. Each representative can handle 12 calls per hour. The arrival rate is 20 calls per hour.

Required:
a. How many extension lines should be used if the company wants to handle 90% of the calls immediately?
b. What is the probability that a call will receive a busy signal if your recommendation in part (a) is used?
c. What percentage of calls receive a busy signal for the current telephone system with two extension lines?

Answers

Answer:

A. 18 calls

B. 0.9

C. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of representatives=2,

Number of extension lines=2,

Average calls each representative can accommodate per hour = 15 calls,

Arrival rate per hour = 30 calls

(a) 90% of the arrival rate = 0.09 × 20 = 18 calls

To handle 18 calls immediately, 18 extension lines should be used

(b) Probability is given by number of possible outcomes ÷ number of total outcomes

Number of possible outcomes = 18, number of total outcomes = 20

Probability (call will receive busy signal) = 18/20 = 0.9

(c) For one extension line, numbers of calls to receive busy signal = 20 - 10 = 10 calls

Number of calls to receive busy signal for the current telephone system with two extension lines = 2 × 10 = 20 calls
