You start driving north for 32 miles, turn
right, and drive east for another 24 miles,
At the end of driving, what is your straight
line distance from your starting point?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

40 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

In the attached diagram, Point A is the starting point and C is the end point. We want to determine the distance from A to C.

The path driven forms a right triangle in which AC is the hypotenuse.

We therefore use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for the AC.

Pythagorean Theorem: [tex]Hypotenuse^2=Opposite^2+Adjacent^2[/tex]

[tex]|AC|^2=32^2+24^2\\|AC|^2=1600\\|AC|=\sqrt{1600}\\ |AC|=40$ miles[/tex]

The  straight  line distance from the starting point is 40 miles.

in a football tournament at group stage there are five football teams in a group, Brazil, England, Scotland, Argentina and France. Each team plays every other team in their group. There are ten matches altogether. Two teams are picked at random to play the first match. Work out the probability that the first game will be played by a European team and a South American team.

Answers

Answer:

6/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Because england, scotland and france are european team and they make up 3/5 of all the teams, you multiply 3/5 by 2/5 because the south american teams are brazil and argentina which make up 2/5 of the total teams. So the probability that a european team will play a south american team is 3/5*2/5 which is 6/25

Answers

Answer:

(x + 5)² + (y - 7)² = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

Here (h, k) = (- 5, 7) and r = [tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex] , thus

(x - (- 5))² + (y - 7)² = ([tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex] )² , that is

4¹²=4ᵃ‐3, what is the value of a?

Answers

Answer:

a = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Perhaps your question is:

[tex] 4^{12}= 4^{a-3}[/tex]

If it is so then let us solve:

[tex] 4^{12}= 4^{a-3}[/tex]

Since, bases are equal hence exponents will also be equal. Therefore,

12 = a - 3

12 + 3 = a

a = 15

The Acme Class Ring Company designs and sells two types of rings: the VIP and the SST. They can produce up to 24 rings each day using up to 60 total man-hours of labor. It takes 3 man-hours to make one VIP ring, versus 2 man-hours to make one SST ring. How many of each type of ring should be made daily to maximize the company's profit, if the profit on a VIP ring is $40 and on an SST ring is $35?

Answers

Answer:

The combination that gives the most profit is 12 VIP rings and 12 SST rings (900 $/day).

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a linear programming problem.

The objective function is profit R, which has to be maximized.

[tex]R=40V+35S[/tex]

being V: number of VIP rings produced, and S: number of SST rings produced.

The restrictions are

- Amount of rings (less or equal than 24 a day):

[tex]V+S\leq24[/tex]

- Amount of man-hours (up to 60 man-hours per day):

[tex]3V+2S\leq60[/tex]

- The number of rings of each type is a positive integer:

[tex]V, \;S\geq 0[/tex]

This restrictions can be graphed and then limit the feasible region. The graph is attached.

We get 3 points, in which 2 of the restrictions are saturated. In one of these three points lies the combination of V and S that maximizes profit.

The points and the values for the profit function in that point are:

Point 1: V=0 and S=24.

[tex]R=40V+35S=40\cdot 0+35\cdot 24=0+840\\\\R=840[/tex]

Point 2: V=12 and S=12

[tex]R=40V+35S=40\cdot 12+35\cdot 12=480+420\\\\R=900[/tex]

Point 3: V=20 and S=0

[tex]R=40V+35S=40\cdot 20+35\cdot 0=800+0\\\\R=800[/tex]

The combination that gives the most profit is 12 VIP rings and 12 SST rings (900 $/day).

A ladder, leaning against a wall, makes an angle of 20° with the ground. The foot of the ladder is 3 m from the wall. How long is the ladder?

Answers

Answer:

0.136m

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because if you draw a diagram, and label all the sides of the triangle (opp, hyp, adj), the adjacent angle is 3m. You can now use the sine rule to find the hypotenuse (length of ladder) by doing: cos 20= 3/h. You divide cos(20) by 3 and you get the answer of 0.13602m.

A company manufacturing computer chips finds that 8% of all chips manufactured are defective. In an effort to decrease the percentage of defective chips, management decides to provide additional training to those employees hired within the last year. After training was implemented, a sample of 450 chips revealed only 27 defects. A hypothesis test is performed to determine if the additional training was effective in lowering the defect rate. Which of the following statement is true about this hypothesis test?a) The additional training significantly increased the defect rate.b) The additional training significantly lowered the defect rate.c) The additional training did affect the defect rate.d) The additional training did not significantly lower the defect rate.e) None of these.

Answers

Answer:

d) The additional training did not significantly lower the defect rate

Step-by-step explanation:

Let proportion of defective chips be = x

Null Hypothesis [H0] : Additional training has no impact on defect rate             x = 8% = 0.08

Alternate Hypothesis [H1] : Additional training has impact on defect rate          x < 8% , x < 0.08  

Observed x proportion (mean) : x' = 27 / 450 = 0.06

z statistic = [ x' - x ]  / √ [ { x ( 1-x ) } / n ]

( 0.06 - 0.08 ) /  √ [ 0.08 (0.92) / 450 ]

= -0.02 / √ 0.0001635  

= -0.02  / 0.01278

z = - 1.56

Since calculated value of z, 1.56 < tabulated value of z at assumed 0.01 significance level, 2.33

Null Hypothesis is accepted, 'training didn't have defect rate reduction impact' is concluded

Aright triangle with an area of X2-4 square units has a leg that measures
2x + 4 units.
Determine the length of the other leg of the triangle.

Answers

Answer:

x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we know that the area of a triangle can be found using the formula: a = 1/2(bh).

We also know that the area of this triangle can be represented by (x^2-4).

Lastly, we know that one of the legs (let's call it the base) can be represented by (2x+4).

Let's plug in those values to the original formula: x^2 - 4 = 1/2(2x + 4)h

Now, let's solve for h!

We can multiply both sides by 2, then divide each side by (2x + 4) to isolate/solve for h.

.

The experimental probability is
.

Question 2
What do you think will happen to the experimental probability when you spin the spinner 400 times?


The experimental probability will stay the same.

The experimental probability will get farther from the theoretical probability.

The experimental probability will get closer to the theoretical probability.

Answers

Answer:

a) If the spinner is fair, then each color must have the same probability, this means that the probability for each color is the number of times that the color (in this case blue) is in the spinner divided the total amount of colors in the spinner, then the theoretical probability for each color is:

Pt = 1/5 = 0.20

The experimental probability can be found by dividing the number of times that the spinner landed on a given color (in this case for blue we have 15 times) divided the total number of spins ( 50)

Pe = 15/50 = 0.30

B) As we increment the number of spins, we should see that the experimental probability gets closer to the theoretical probability.

Answer:

12.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given the lengths of the legs of a right triangle.

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(6 m)^2 + (11 m)^2 = c^2

36 m^2 + 121 m^2 = c^2

c^2 = 157 m^2

c = sqrt(157 m^2)

c = sqrt(157) m

Consider the polynomial function p(x) = 4x^8- 6x^7+ 3x^3- 10.
What is the end behavior of the graph of p?

Answers

Answer:

As x gets smaller, pointing to negative infinity, the value of p increases, pointing to positive infinity.

As x increases, pointing to positive infinity, the value of p increases, pointing to positive infinity.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the end behaviour of a function f(x), we calculate these following limits:

[tex]\lim_{x \to +\infty} f(x)[/tex]

And

[tex]\lim_{x \to -\infty} f(x)[/tex]

At negative infinity:

[tex]\lim_{x \to -\infty} (4x^{8} - 6x^{7} + 3x^{3} - 10)[/tex]

When the variable points to infinity, we only consider the term with the highest exponent. So

[tex]\lim_{x \to -\infty} (4x^{8} - 6x^{7} + 3x^{3} - 10) = \lim_{x \to -\infty} 4x^{8} = 4*(-\infty)^{8} = \infty[/tex]

Plus infinity, because the exponent is even.

So as x gets smaller, pointing to negative infinity, the value of p increases, pointing to positive infinity.

At positive infinity:

[tex]\lim_{x \to \infty} (4x^{8} - 6x^{7} + 3x^{3} - 10) = \lim_{x \to \infty} 4x^{8} = 4*(\infty)^{8} = \infty[/tex]

As x increases, pointing to positive infinity, the value of p increases, pointing to positive infinity.
