if a and b are real numbers and if a>b and b =7 then >_ 8. Which Of the following is a counterexample to the assertion above?
A) a=6.5
B) a = 7.5
C) a= -8.5
D) a=8.1

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

if a is greater then b and b=7 and A< 8  7.5 is the only one that fits the description

Answer 2

Option B) a = 7.5 is the correct

The question is asking which option is a counterexample to the assertion that if a and b are real numbers with a > b and b = 7, then a ">=_" 8. To find a counterexample, we need an instance where a is greater than b (which is 7), but a is not greater than or equal to 8.

A) a=6.5 cannot be the correct answer because it is not greater than b. B) a = 7.5 is indeed greater than b=7, but it is less than 8 which makes it the correct counterexample. Both C) a= -8.5 and D) a=8.1 are not counterexamples; the former is less than b, and the latter is greater than 8.

Therefore, option B) a = 7.5 is the correct counterexample because it satisfies the condition a > 7 but does not meet the incorrect assertion that a is also ">=_" 8.

John deposited $2,860 in a bank that pays 9% interests, compounded monthly. Find the amount he will have at the end of 3 years?​

Answers

Answer:

The amount he will have at the end of 3 years is $3742.73

Step-by-step explanation:

* The formula for annual compound interest is:

A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt)

Where:

A = Total money after t years

P = the investment amount (the initial deposited amount)

r = the annual interest rate (decimal)

n = the number of times that interest is compounded per year

t = the number of years the money is invested

∵ P = $2860 ⇒ deposited

∵ r = 9% = 9/100 = 0.09 ⇒ annual rate

∵ n = 12 ⇒ compounded monthly

∵ t = 3 years

∴ A = 2860(1 + 0.09/12)^(12 × 3)

∴ A = 2860(1.0075)^36 = $3742.73

* The amount he will have at the end of 3 years is $3742.73

Answer:

The amount he will have at the end of 3 years = $3742

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for compound interest

A = P[1 + R/n]^nt

A - Amount

P - Principle amount

R - rate of interest

n - Number of times in which the amount compounded

t - Number of years

To find the amount

Here,

P = $2,860, R = 9% = 0.09

n = 12 and t = 3 years

A = P[1 + R/n]^nt

 =2860[1 + 0.09/12]^(12*3)

 = 2860[1 + 0.0075]^36 = 3742.7257 ≈ $3742

Which Of the following could not be points on the units circle ?

Answers

answer A , that could not be point

Answer:

Options a and c

Step-by-step explanation:

A unit circle is one which has origin as centre and radius as 1.

The equation of the unit circle would be

[tex]x^2+y^2 =1[/tex]

Thus we find that any point satisfying the above equation lies on the unit circle

Let us try the given points one by one

a) [tex](0.8)^2+(-0,6)^2 =1[/tex]. Hence lies on the circle

b) (1,1)

Cannot lie on circle since [tex]1^2+1^2 \neq 1[/tex]

c) [tex](\frac{-2}{3} ,\frac{\sqrt{5} }{3} )\\(\frac{-2}{3})^2+(\frac{\sqrt{5} }{3} )^2 =1[/tex]. Hence lies on the circle

d) [tex](\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} ,\frac{1}{3} )\\(\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2})^2+(\frac{1}{3} )^2\\\neq 1[/tex]

Hence does not lie on the circle

Only option A,C are right

george works for a garden center where is is paid a salary of 350 per week plus a commission of 6% of the amount of merchandise that he sells. Last week his sales totaled 1,850. What was his gross pay?

Answers

Answer: His gross pay is $461.

Step-by-step explanation: George’s gross pay consists of two parts, his salary and his commission. His salary is $350, regardless of how much he sells. His commission is 6% of the $1,850 in sales that he made.

First, calculate the amount of commission = .06 x $1,850 = $111

$350 + $111 = $461

What is the volume of this aquarium?

Answers

Answer:

2160 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism is calculated using the formula

V = lbh ( l is length, b is breadth, h is height )

here l = 18, b = 10 and h = 12, hence

V = 18 × 10 × 12 = 2160 cm³

Volume = l × b × h

= 18 × 10 × 12

= 2160cm³

What is the probability that the roll of a six-sided die will be either even or odd?

Answers

the probability that the roll of a six-sides die will be either even or odd is 1/2 or 50%

The probability of a six-sided die will be either even or odd is 1/2.

What is the probability?

The Probability in mathematics is the possibility of an event in time. In simple words, how many times that incident is happening in any given time interval.

Given:

A die is rolled once.

The sample space = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

An even number sample space = {2, 4, 6}

Odd number sample space = {1, 3, 5}

The probability of a six-sided die will be either even or odd,

= 3/6

= 1/2

Therefore, 1/2 is the probability.

He multiplied the dividend by 100 instead of 10

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ 1.926 ÷ 0.9 ⇒ means

  1.926 = 1926/1000 ⇒ dividend

  0.9 = 9/10 ⇒ divisor

* [tex]\frac{1926}{1000}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{9}{10}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation: If 3 black circles equal 30, we can divide that by 3 and get 10. If 1 black circle and 2 white circles equal 18, we can subtract 10 and get left with 2 white circles worth 8, which means a white circle is 4. A white circle minus a square is 2, which means a square is 2. So we put this all together and get 16.

Answers

each song cost $1.25

The cost of each song is $1.25.

What is the unitary method?

The unitary method is a technique for solving a problem by first finding the value of a single unit, and then finding the necessary value by multiplying the single unit value.

Given that, Amelia used a $50 gift card to buy digital music online after playing for 16 songs her balance on the gift card was $30.

So, the cost of 16 song is 50-30=$20

Now, the cost of each song = 20/16

= 5/4

= $1.25

Therefore, the price of each song is $1.25.

How would I simplify and solve for X in this trigonometric equation? (Radians)
[tex]cos(x+\pi )^{2} = sinx[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Please, refer to the images below

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve for x in the equation

cos (x+ pi) ^2 = sin (x)

cos (x+ pi) = - cos(x)

(-cos (x)) * (-cos (x)) = sin(x)

cos(x) ^2 = sin(x)

We know that

cos(x) ^2  + sin(x) ^2  = 1

cos(x) ^2 = 1 - sin(x) ^2

1 - sin(x) ^2 = sin(x)

sin(x) ^2 + sin (x) -1 = 0

Let A = sin(x)

A^2 + A - 1 = 0

(solutions attached in picture 1)

This means that

x = arcsin(A)

Manny has 48 feet of wood. He wants to use all of it to create a border around a garden. The equation 2l+ 2w = 48 can be used to find the length and width of the garden, where l is the length and w is the width of the garden. If Manny makes the garden 15 feet long, how wide should the garden be?

Answers

Answer:

2W=9

Step-by-step explanation:

You must first get the Length, which is 15, and multiply it by 2 and you get 30. You then subtract 30 from 48 and get 18. Since the equation has 2W, you have to divide 18 by 2, which gets you the answer 9.

Answer:

width = 9 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given that total length of the wood for the garden is 48 feet only.

The length in represented in the equation given below. In geometry we call it Perimeter.

2l+2w=48

Where l is the length of the garden and the w is width of the garden.

Here also given that , if Manny wants the length to be 15 feet, what will be width of the garden.

In order to find this we put the value of l as 15  in 2l+2w=48 and solve for w

Let us see how

2l+2w=48

2(15)+2w=48

30+2w=48

subtracting 30 from both sides

30+2w-30=48-30

2w=18

Dividing both sides by 2 we get

w=9

Hence the width will be 9 feet
