Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The base is defined as x. The height is said to be 3 less than 2x, so is (2x-3).

The formula for the area of a triangle is ...

  A = (1/2)bh

Filling in the given values, we have ...

  17.5 = (1/2)x(2x-3)

  35 = 2x^2 -3x . . . . multiply by 2

  2x^2 -3x -35 = 0 . . . . put in standard form

  (2x +7)(x -5) = 0 . . . . . factor

The base is 5 meters; the height is 2·5-3 = 7 meters.

The base and height of the triangle satisfying the given conditions are approximately 4.3 and 5.6 meters, respectively.

The area of a triangle is given by the formula 1/2 * base * height. Here, the area is 17.5 square meters, the base of the triangle is x, and the height of the triangle is 3 meters less than twice its base, therefore the height is 2x-3. Plugging these values into the formula, we get 17.5 = 1/2 * x * (2x - 3).

To solve this equation for x, first simplify the right-hand side, yielding 17.5 = x*(2x - 3). Multiplying this out gives 17.5 = 2x^2 - 3x. Then, rearrange to get the equation in standard quadratic form, resulting in 2x^2 - 3x - 17.5 = 0.

Through using quadratic formula we can find the solution(s) to be approximately x = 4.3 or x = -2.0. Since a negative value for x ? the base of a triangle ? is not possible, we discard that solution. Thus, the base of the triangle is 4.3 meters, and the height would then be 2*4.3 - 3 = about 5.6 meters.

Answer:

2.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem says the stations are 260 feet apart.  Assuming that this is the horizontal distance between them, then the grade is:

7.5 / 260 × 100% = 2.9%

This is less than the maximum of 3.5%, so it meets the standards.

Answer: A, inside the circle.

Step-by-step explanation: Because the radius is wider than 4, (4,-1) would be just inside the circle instead of outside. Using the radius, you could determine that all points on the circle extend 5 units from its center, which means that the overall circumference would be past (4,-1).

Answer:

g(x) = x^2 + 4x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In translation of functions, adding a constant to the domain values (x) of a function will move the graph to the left, while subtracting from the input of the function will move the graph to the right.

Given the function;

f(x) = x2 - 6x + 9

a shift 5 units to the left implies that we shall be adding the constant 5 to the x values of the function;

g(x) = f(x+5)

g(x) = (x+5)^2 - 6(x+5) + 9

g(x) = x^2 + 10x + 25 - 6x -30 + 9

g(x) = x^2 + 4x + 4

According to the recursive formula,

[tex]a_2=a_1+4[/tex]

[tex]a_3=a_2+4=(a_1+4)+4=a_1+2\cdot4[/tex]

[tex]a_4=a_3+4=a_2+2\cdot4=a_1+3\cdot4[/tex]

and so on, with the general formula

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)\cdot4[/tex]

Then

[tex]a_n=-2+4(n-1)=4n-6[/tex]

and the answer is C.

Answer:

C. an = 4n -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Only one of the offered choices gives a1=-2 for n=1.

___

The recursive formula tells you ...

a2 -a1 = 4

The only choices that increase by 4 when n increases by 1 are choices C and D. Of these, choice D gives a1=4·1+6 = 10 ≠ -2.

Choice C gives a1 = 4·1 -6 = -2, as required.

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound inequality representing the range of possible values for 'x' (side length BC) in the triangle ABC, given that side lengths AB=13 and AC=21, is 8 < x < 34.

In the triangle ABC with side lengths, AB=13, AC=21, and BC=x, we use the triangle inequality theorem which states that the length of a side of a triangle is less than the sum of the lengths of the other two sides and more than the absolute difference between them. Applying this theorem to your specific situation, we get the compound inequality 8 < x < 34. This inequality represents the range of possible values for the side length x is BC.

https://brainly.com/question/1163433

#SPJ12

For triangle ABC with sides AB = 13, AC = 21, and BC = x, the range of possible values for x is[tex]\( 8 < x < 34 \)[/tex] based on the triangle inequality theorem.

In triangle ABC, the relationship among its side lengths is governed by the triangle inequality theorem, which states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the remaining side.

For the given triangle with side lengths AB = 13, AC = 21, and BC = x, we can express this relationship as a compound inequality. Let \[tex]( a \), \( b \), and \( c \)[/tex]  represent the lengths of the sides of the triangle. According to the triangle inequality theorem, we have:

[tex]\[ a + b > c \][/tex]

Substitute the given values:

[tex]\[ 13 + x > 21 \][/tex]

Now, solve for[tex]\( x \)[/tex]

[tex]\[ x > 8 \][/tex]

Similarly, for the other pair of sides:

[tex]\[ 21 + x > 13 \][/tex]

Solving for \( x \):

[tex]\[ x > -8 \][/tex]

However, since side lengths cannot be negative, we disregard the second inequality. Therefore, the compound inequality representing the range of possible values for [tex]\( x \) is \( 8 < x < 34 \).[/tex] This means that any value of [tex]\( x \)[/tex] between 8 and 34 (exclusive) will satisfy the conditions for the given triangle.

Benji requires 90mL per injection.

From the statement we know that dog's weight is 12 kg, and daily injections are required for 3 days, the dose rate is 7.5 mg/kg, so we need to calculate how many mL per injection does Benji require.

We have that:

[tex]Weight=12Kg\\\\Dose=7.5\frac{mL}{Kg}[/tex]

If the dose rate is 7.5 mL per each Kg, how many mL are required for 12 Kg? We can set it up using the following relation:

[tex]7.5mL=1Kg\\x=12Kg\\\\x=\frac{7.5mL*12Kg}{1Kg}=\frac{90mL.Kg}{1Kg}=90mL[/tex]

Hence, we have that there are needed 90 mL per injection.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If Thaddeus drives the whole 16 hours, the distance between them is ...

  distance = speed · time

  distance = 20 mi/h · 16 h

  distance = 320 miles.

It is 45 miles more than that. For each hour that Ian drives, their separation distance increases by (25 mph -20 mph)·(1 h) = 5 mi. Then Ian must have driven ...

  (45 mi)/(5 mi/h) = 9 h

The rest of the 16 hours is the time that Thaddeus drove: 7 hours.

___

Let x represent the time Ian drives. Then 16-x is the time Thaddeus drives. Their total distance driven is ...

  distance = speed · time

  365 mi = (25 mi/h)(x) + (20 mi/h)(16 h -x)

  45 mi = (5 mi/h)(x) . . . . . . . . subtract 320 miles, collect terms

  (45 mi)/(5 mi/h) = x = 9 h . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

_____

Comment on the solution

You may notice a similarity between the solution of this equation and the verbal discussion above. (That is intentional.) It works well to let a variable represent the amount of the highest contributor. Here, that is Ian's time, since he is driving at the fastest speed.

To solve the problem, we need to set up two equations based on the information given in the problem. Solving the equations simultaneously gives Thaddeus has been driving for 7 hours and Ian has been driving for 9 hours.

First, we'll define the variables. Let's say the time Thaddeus has been driving is T hours, and the time Ian has been driving is I hours. The total distance they covered is the sum of the distances each one traveled, which is 365 miles. Thaddeus travels at a rate of 20 mph, while Ian travels at 25 mph. This is represented by the equation 20T + 25I = 365.

Next, we know that the total time they have been driving is 16 hours, which gives us another equation, T + I = 16. Now we have a system of linear equations that we can solve simultaneously to find the values of T and I. The solution gives T = 7 hours and I = 9 hours. Hence, Thaddeus has been driving for 7 hours and Ian has been driving for 9 hours.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation for interest compounding continuously, the A stands for the amount after the compounding is done, the P is the initial amount invested, the e is Euler's number, the r is the rate in decimal form, and the t is the time in years that the money is invested.  Setting up our equation with the given values looks like this:

[tex]A=22,000e^{(.0385)(11)}[/tex]

Multiply the rate with the time to simplify a bit to

[tex]A=22,000e^{.4235}[/tex]

Raise e to the power of .4235 on your calculator (hit 2nd then the ln button to get your e) and get

[tex]A=22,000(1.527297754)[/tex]

Multiply out to get $33600.55, but rounding up gives you B as your answer.

The balance in the account after 11 years is $33,600.6. Thus, the correct option is B.

Theoretically, long-term average interest means that interest is continuously earned on a current account as well as reinvested into the balance to increase future interest earnings.

The equation is given as,

[tex]\rm P=P_o \times e^{rt}[/tex]

The balance in the account after 11 years is calculated as,

[tex]\rm P = \$22,000 \times e^{0.0385\times 11}[/tex]

Simplify the equation, then we have

P = $22,000 x 1.52729

P = $33,600.6

Thus, the correct option is B.

Answer:

y = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y+z = 50

x/y = 1/4 so y = 4x

Substitute y = 4x into  x+y+z = 50

x + 4x + z = 50

5x + z = 50

y/z = 4/5 --> 4z = 5y so z =5/4 y

Substitute z =5/4 y into 5x + z = 50

5x + 5/4 y = 50

You can solve for x from these 2 equations

5x + 5/4 y = 50

y = 4x

Substitute y = 4x into 5x + 5/4 y = 50

5x + 5/4 (4x) = 50

5x + 5x = 50

10x = 50

  x = 5

y = 4x = 4 (5) = 20

Final answer:

To determine the probability of the instructor finishing grading before 11:00 P.M., calculate the expected time to grade 40 exams, determine the standard deviation, and then use the z-score to find the corresponding probability from the standard normal distribution.

Explanation:

To tackle these statistics problems, there are several concepts we need to apply including expected value, standard deviation, the central limit theorem, hypothesis testing, and probability. Since only one problem can be answered at a time, I'll focus on the first one you've mentioned about the grading times for exams.

The instructor's time to grade each paper is a random variable with an expected value of 6 minutes and a standard deviation of 6 minutes. When considering the grading of 40 papers, we can use the central limit theorem which suggests that the sum of these independent random variables will be approximately normally distributed given the large number of papers (n=40).

We first calculate the expected total time to grade 40 exams by multiplying the individual exam time's expected value by the number of exams: 6 minutes/exam * 40 exams = 240 minutes. Then, we calculate the standard deviation for the total grading time: 6 minutes/exam * √40 ≈ 37.95 minutes.

To find the probability that the instructor finishes grading before 11:00 P.M., we need to calculate the number of minutes from 6:50 P.M. to 11:00 P.M., which is 250 minutes. Next, we convert this problem into a z-score problem where we find the z-score corresponding to 250 minutes. Finally, we look up this z-score in a standard normal distribution table (or use statistical software) to find the corresponding probability.
