Part A.

We're only told that the product of the mystery factor and the number shown is even. This is true when the number shown is odd as well as even, hence the mystery factor is even.

There are no other conditions on the product that might limit the value of the mystery factor (non-zero, or < 10, for example).

Hence, the mystery factor could be any single-digit even number. In our base-10 number system, there are 5 of them: {0, 2, 4, 6, 8}.

Answers

Answer:

None of the above. All the answers refer to price. The given equation refers to value. We imagine price may stay the same or actually increase year-to-year. The problem statement gives insufficient information to conclude anything about price.

Math is about attention to detail. The equation tells you ...

... The value of the boat decreases by 12% every year.

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of the boat is multiplied by 0.88 each time X increases by 1. That means the value is 88% of what it was the year before, a decrease of 12%.

A)The end behavior of functions f(x) and g(x) are exactly the same.

B)Both functions have exactly three x-intercepts.

C)The function f(x) is an odd degree function.

D)The function g(x) has a positive leading coefficient.

E)The x intercepts for g(x) are (1, 0); (2, 0) and (-3/2, 0)

Answers

Answer:

  B)  Both functions have exactly three x-intercepts.

  C)  The function f(x) is an odd degree function.

  E)  The x intercepts for g(x) are (1, 0); (2, 0) and (-3/2, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The function f is a function of degree 3 (there are 3 x-terms in the product contributing to the highest-degree term), so is of odd degree. The leading coefficient in f(x) is the product of the coefficients of x: 1·1·2 = 2, a positive number.

For a polynomial function of odd degree, the general shape of the graph will be "/" if the leading coefficient is positive, and "\" if the leading coefficient is negative. That is, end behaviors will be opposites of each other. Function f has a positive leading coefficient, so its end behavior will be (-∞, -∞) and (+∞, +∞). Function g has end behavior that is (-∞, +∞) and (+∞, -∞), so is not the same. Apparently, g(x) has a negative leading coefficient.

The graph of g(x) shows it to have 3 x-intercepts. They can be read from the graph as (-3/2, 0), (1, 0) and (2, 0). The factoring of f(x) shows it to have 3 x-intercepts, the same number. There is an x-intercept of f(x) for each factor. (The x-intercept value is the value of x that makes the factor zero.)

Final answer:

The function f(x) is of odd degree and has three x-intercepts at -2, 1, and -3/2. The statements regarding the function g(x) cannot be confirmed without further information.

Explanation:

The function given is f(x) = (x+2)(x-1)(2x+3). The degree of the function is 3 as there are three terms multiplied together. Therefore, f(x) is an odd degree function, which makes option C correct.

The x-intercepts of the function occur where y = 0, i.e. where f(x) = 0. Solving this will give the roots or intercepts for x which are -2, 1, and -3/2. This means that the function f(x) has three x-intercepts, which makes option B correct.

Without information or a graph of function g(x), we cannot accurately answer options A, D and E. We cannot know the end behavior, the leading coefficient or the x intercepts for g(x). Therefore, only options B and C are true statements.

In one year, a bird farm sold 375 total chickens. of these, there were 37 more Cornish hens than turkeys. How many Cornish hens and how many turkeys were sold?

Answers

Answer:

206 Cornish hens

169 turkeys

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the number of Cornish hens sold. Then c-37 is the number of turkeys sold. The total sales would be ...

... c + (c-37) = 375

... 2c = 412 . . . . collect terms, add 37

... c = 206 . . . . Cornish hens sold

... (c-37) = 169 . . . turkeys sold

_____

Comment on this type of problem

Note that the solution to this problem is that the larger number (number of cornish hens) is half the sum of the total and the difference: (375+37)/2 = 206. This is the general solution for this type of "sum and difference" problem.

The larger contributor is half the total plus half the difference; the smaller contributor is half the total minus half the difference.

Cornish hens = (1/2)(375 +37) = 206

Turkeys = (1/2)(375 -37) = 169

Drag each value to the correct location on the tree diagram. Not all values will be used.
$90 $27.84 $66.32 $46.8 $38.48 $29.12 $31.24

Answers

Answer:

See the attachment

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value of store card transactions will be the product of their average value ($58) and their probability of occurrence (48%).

... $58 × 0.48 = $27.84

Transactions are either "store card" or "without a store card", so the probability of a transaction being made without a store card is

... 1 - 0.48 = 0.52

Using the same computatation as for store card expected value, the expected value of transactions made without a store card is ...

... $74 × 0.52 = $38.48

The expected value of the store's transactions is the sum of the expected values of the different ways transactions can be made:

... $27.84 +38.48 = $66.32

_____

The average value of transactions made without a store card is the weighted average of those made with another card and those made with cash or a gift card. Using c to represent the latter, this weighted sum is ...

... 74 = 0.80 × 70 + 0.20 × c

... 74 -56 = 0.20c . . . . . subtract 56

... 18/0.2 = c = 90 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of c

The average transaction made with cash or a gift card is $90.

Each expected value per transaction should be matched to the correct location on the tree diagram as shown in the image below.

How to determine the expected value per transactions?

In this exercise, we would use probability to make each of the decisions. The expected value for transactions made with a store card can be determined by multiplying its probability of occurrence (48%) by the average value ($58) as follows;

Expected value per transaction = 58 × 0.48

Expected value per transaction = $27.84

Since transactions are either made with a store card or without a store card, the probability of a transaction being made without a store card is given by;

Probability (without a store card) = 1 - 0.48 = 0.52

In this context, the expected value per transactions made without a store card is given by;

Expected value per transaction = 74 × 0.52

Expected value per transaction = $38.48

... $74 × 0.52 = $

For the store's expected value transactions, we would add each of the expected values calculated above;

Store's expected value transactions = 27.84 + 38.48

Store's expected value transactions = $66.32.

The average transaction value for transactions that are made with cash or a gift card can be calculated by finding the weighted average of all transactions made without a card;

74 = (0.80 × 70) + 0.20 × m

74 = 56 + 0.20m

0.20m = 74 - 56

0.20m = 18

m = 18/0.20

m = $90.

In trapezoid ABCD with bases AB and DC , diagonals intersect at point O. Find the length of diagonal BD , if BO=6 cm and: AO/OC = 3/1

Answers

Answer:

8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

... BO/OD = AO/OC = 3/1

Written another way, this is ...

... OD : BO = 1 : 3

Now, BD = OD + BO, so we have

... BD : BO = (OD +BO) : BO = (1 +3) : 3 = 4 : 3

That is, BD = 4/3 × BO

... BD = 4/3 × 6 cm = 8 cm

Final answer:

To find the length of diagonal BD in trapezoid ABCD, we set up an equation using the fact that the diagonals bisect each other. We solve for x and then substitute it into the equation for BD.

Explanation:

To find the length of diagonal BD in trapezoid ABCD, we can use the fact that the diagonals of a trapezoid bisect each other. Let AO = 3x and OC = x. Since the diagonals intersect at point O, we can set up the equation (3x + 6) / x = 3 / 1. Solving for x, we find that x = 1.5. Therefore, BD = 2 * x + 6 = 2 * 1.5 + 6 = 9 cm.

Part B: (also explained above). Every month the number of visitors approximately doubles. Starting with 5.74 at month 8, the numbers goes up by about the same amount to 12.0 at month 9. At month 10, a similar increase occurs (doubling would be 24, and the data shows 25, so this is all "aproximate"). This trend continues throughout the table.

Part C:

Month 7 will be estimated as half of month 8 (going backward):

Month 7: 5.74/2=2.87

Estimate for month 7 = 2.87 thousand visitors.

Liam volunteers to help plan the event. The first month, he volunteered for x hours. The next month he volunteered for 1 2/3 times as many hours as he had the first month. If he volunteered for a total of 40 hours, how many hours did he volunteer during the first month? Write an equation to represent the situation and solve.

Answers

Final answer:

To find the number of hours Liam volunteered during the first month, we can set up an equation using the given information. By solving the equation, we find that Liam volunteered for 15 hours during the first month.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can start by representing the number of hours Liam volunteered in the first month as x. The number of hours volunteered in the next month would be 1 2/3 times x, which can be written as (5/3)x. The total number of hours volunteered is given as 40, so we can write the equation: x + (5/3)x = 40. To solve for x, we can combine the like terms and solve the resulting equation.

Combining the x terms, we get (8/3)x = 40. Solving for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 8/3: x = 40 / (8/3).

Simplifying, we have x = 40 * (3/8) = 15. Therefore, Liam volunteered for 15 hours during the first month.

Final answer:

By representing the number of hours in the first month as x, we can find the value of x by using the given information and solving the equation. The solution shows that Liam volunteered for 15 hours during the first month.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can set up an equation representing the total number of hours Liam volunteered. Let's represent the number of hours he volunteered in the first month as x. According to the problem, he volunteered for 1 2/3 times as many hours in the next month. So, the number of hours he volunteered in the next month is 1 2/3 x. The total number of hours is given as 40. Therefore, we have the equation:

x + 1 2/3 x = 40

To solve for x, we can simplify the equation by converting 1 2/3 to an improper fraction. This gives us:

5/3 x + 1 2/3 x = 40

Combining like terms, we get:

8/3 x = 40

To solve for x, we can multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 8/3, which is 3/8. This gives us:

x = (40)(3/8) = 15

Therefore, Liam volunteered for 15 hours during the first month.
