Answer:

The standard form is [tex]7x^7 +6x^5-3x^3 + 8x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]6x^5 + 8x-3x^3+7x^7[/tex]

To Find :

standard form of [tex]6x^5 + 8x-3x^3+7x^7[/tex]

Solution:

A polynomial is in standard form when its term of highest degree is first, its term of 2nd highest is 2nd etc.

In order to write any polynomial in standard form, you look at the degree of each term. You then write each term in order of degree, from highest to lowest, left to write.

Now lets check the degree of each term in the polynomial

The degree of 6x is 5

The degree of 8x is 1

The degree of 3x is 3

 The degree of 7x is 7

Now rewrite  the polynomial in the order of the degree, from highest to lowest

[tex]7x^7 +6x^5-3x^3 + 8x[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]x^{4} -18x^{3}+104x^{2} -172x-100[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 roots are given out of which 2 are real and 1 is imaginary. For a polynomial of least degree having real coefficients, it must have a complex conjugate root as the 4th root. Therefore, based on 4 roots, the least degree of polynomial will be 4. Finding the polynomial having leading coefficient=1 and solving it based on multiplication of 2 quadratic polynomials, we get:  

[tex]\\\\x_{1} = 2-\sqrt{6} \\x_{2} = 2+\sqrt{6} \\x_{3}=7-i \\x_{4}=7+i \\\\P(x)=1(x-x_{1})(x-x_{2} )(x-x_{3} )(x-x_{4} ) \\\\=(x-(2-\sqrt{6}))(  x-(2+\sqrt{6} )) (x-(7-i))( x-(7+i))\\=((x-2)+\sqrt{6})( ( x-2)-\sqrt{6} ) ((x-7)+i)( (x-7)-i)\\=((x-2)^{2} -(\sqrt{6} )^{2} )((x-7)^{2}-(i)^{2})\\=(x^{2} -4x-2)(x^{2} -14x+50)\\=x^{4} -18x^{3}+104x^{2} -172x-100\\[/tex]

Answer:

The area of each triangle face is 27 square feet .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The base area of square pyramid = A = 36 square feet

The total surface area of square pyramid = TSA = 144 square feet

Let The area of each triangle face = x square feet

Now, According to question

Total surface Area of square pyramid = Base area of square pyramid + Area of four triangle faces

Or, TSA = A + 4 × x

Or, 144 ft² = 36 ft² + 4 × x  ft²

Or, 4 × x = 144 ft² - 36 ft²

Or  4 ×  x = 108 ft²

∴     x = [tex]\dfrac{108}{4}[/tex]

i.e  x = 27   ft²

So, The area of each triangle face = x = 27 square feet

Hence, The area of each triangle face is 27 square feet . Answer

Answer:

The Sum Of The Integers From -6 To 58 is 1690.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

[tex]a=-6[/tex]

[tex]T_n=58[/tex]

We have to find out the sum of integers from -6 To 58.

Firstly we will find out the total number of terms that is 'n'.

Here [tex]a_1=-6\ and\ a_2=-5[/tex]

[tex]\therefore d=a_2-a_1=-5-(-6)=-5+6=1[/tex]

Now we use the formula of A.P.

[tex]T_n=a+(n-1)d[/tex]

On substituting the values, we get;

[tex]58=-6+(n-1)1\\\\n-1=58+6\\\\n-1=64\\\\n=64+1=65[/tex]

So there are 65 terms in between  -6 To 58.

That means we have to find the sum of 65 terms in between  -6 To 58.

Now we use the formula of Sum of n_terms.

[tex]S_n=\frac{n}{2}(2a-(n-1)d)[/tex]

On substituting the values, we get;

[tex]S_{65}=\frac{65}{2}(2\times-6+(65-1)1)\\\\S_{65}=\frac{65}{2}(-12+64)\\\\S_{65}=\frac{65}{2}\times52\\\\S_{65}=65\times26=1690[/tex]

Hence The Sum Of The Integers From -6 To 58 is 1690.

Final answer:

The sum of the integers from -6 to 58 is calculated using the formula for the sum of an arithmetic series and is found to be 1,690.

Explanation:

To find the sum of the integers from -6 to 58, we can use the formula for the sum of an arithmetic series, which is S = n/2 * (a1 + an), where S is the sum of the series, n is the number of terms, a1 is the first term, and an is the last term.

We first need to determine the number of terms in our series. Since our series starts at -6 and ends at 58, we can find the number of terms by subtracting -6 from 58 and then adding 1 (because both ends are inclusive). That gives us 58 - (-6) + 1 = 65 terms.

Now, we can plug the values into the sum formula:

S = 65/2 * (-6 + 58) = 32.5 * 52 = 1690.

Therefore, the sum of the integers from -6 to 58 is 1,690.

Answer:

4 foot

Step-by-step explanation:

√50.25 / 3.1416 = 4

The diameter of the circular sprinkler is 16 feet.

To find the diameter of the circular sprinkler, we can use the formula for the circumference of a circle: C = πd, where C is the circumference and d is the diameter. In this case, we are given the length of the copper tubing used, which is equal to the circumference. So we can rearrange the formula to solve for the diameter: d = C/π. Plugging in the given values, we have d = 50.25/π. Using the value of π as approximately 3.14, we can calculate the diameter to the nearest whole foot.

d ≈ 50.25/3.14 ≈ 16.01 feet

Therefore, the diameter of the circular sprinkler to the nearest whole foot is 16 feet.

Answer:

Possible numbers for Joshua's house are #13 and #21.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Vacation houses are equally spaced along a street.

The first house is marked with #10 and so on.

Maria lives in house marked as #17.

Joshua lives 4 houses away from Maria.

So, the difference between Joshua's house number and Maria's house number is 4.

Let 'x' be the house number of Joshua's house.

Case 1: If Joshua's house is after Maria's house. So, [tex]x> 17[/tex]

[tex]x-17=4\\x=17+4=21[/tex]

Case 2: If Joshua's house is before Maria's house. So, [tex]x<17[/tex]

[tex]17-x=4\\17-4=x\\13=x\ or\\x=13[/tex]

Therefore, the possible numbers for Joshua's house are #13 and #21.

Answer:

Part 1) [tex]BC=68\ units[/tex]

Part 2) [tex]DE=36\ units[/tex]

Part 3) [tex]CE=34\ units[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The Midpoint Theorem states that the segment joining two sides of a triangle at the midpoints of those sides is parallel to the third side and is half the length of the third side

so

Part 1) Find the length of  BC

Applying the Midpoint Theorem

[tex]DF=\frac{1}{2}BC[/tex]

we have

[tex]DF=34\ units[/tex]

substitute the given value

[tex]34=\frac{1}{2}BC[/tex]

solve for BC

[tex]BC=34(2)=68\ units[/tex]

Part 2) Find the length of  DE

Applying the Midpoint Theorem

[tex]DE=\frac{1}{2}AC[/tex]

we have

[tex]AC=72\ units[/tex]

substitute the given value

[tex]DE=\frac{1}{2}(72)[/tex]

[tex]DE=36\ units[/tex]

Part 3) Find the length of  CE

we know that

[tex]BC=CE+BE[/tex] ----> by addition segment postulate

The point E is the midpoint segment BC

That means

[tex]CE=BE[/tex]

so

[tex]BC=2CE[/tex]

we have

[tex]BC=68\ units[/tex]

substitute

[tex]68=2CE[/tex]

solve for CE

[tex]CE=68/2[/tex]

[tex]CE=34\ units[/tex]

The total commission that will be paid during the two years is $ 225

Solution:

Given that insurance company pays its agents 40% commission on the first year’s premium and 5% on the second year’s premium for life insurance policies

The premiums are 500$ per year

Commission on first year:

40% commission on the first year’s premium

Thus 40 % commission on $ 500

[tex]\rightarrow 40 \% \text{ of } 500\\\\\rightarrow 40 \% \times 500\\\\\rightarrow \frac{40}{100} \times 500\\\\\rightarrow 200[/tex]

Thus commission paid for first year is $ 200

Commission on second year:

5 % commission on the second year’s premium

Thus 5 % commission on 500

[tex]\rightarrow 5 \% \text{ of } 500\\\\\rightarrow 5 \% \times 500\\\\\rightarrow \frac{5}{100} \times 500 = 25[/tex]

Thus commission paid for second year is $ 25

Total commission paid = $ 200 + $ 25 = 225

Thus Total commission paid is $ 225

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a spinner with the colors orange, yellow, purple, and green.....so this spinner only has 4 spaces....and 1 of those spaces is purple...so the ratio of stopping on purple is 1/4 or 0.25

The spinner has 4 colors, and purple is one of these. To find the theoretical probability of it stopping at purple, we divide 1 by 4, resulting in 0.25. Therefore, the theoretical probability of the spinner stopping on purple rounded to nearest hundredth is 0.25.

The probability of the spinner stopping on the color purple can be calculated by dividing the number of ways this can happen (which is 1, as there's only one purple on the spinner) by the total number of outcomes in the sample space (which is 4, as there are 4 colors on the spinner).

So, the probability would be 1 ÷ 4 = 0.25.

To get the value as a rounded decimal to the nearest hundredth, it stays 0.25 as it is already to the nearest hundredth.

Answer:

Segment B'D' will be parallel to segment BD and will be shorter than segment BD. Please see the attached figure (a) for better understanding.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that there are certain rules when a quadrilateral is dilated by a certain scale centered around a certain point.

So,

Let suppose P(a, b) is the point.

The dilation rule by a scale factor of 1 over 3 or (1/3) centered around (1, 2) is

P(a, b) → [tex]P(\frac{x+2}{3}, \frac{y+4}{3})[/tex]

Hence,

            A(1, 2) → A'(1, 2)

            B(2, 3) → B'(4/3, 7/3)

            C(4, 2) → C'(2, 2)

             D(2, 1) → D'(4/3, 5/3)

The attached figure show that if we draw the all these points in the coordinate plan i.e. A(1, 2), B(2, 3), C(4, 2), D(2, 1) and A'(1, 2), B'(4/3, 7/3), C'(2, 2), D'(4/3, 5/3), we can determine that Segment B'D' will be parallel to segment BD and will be shorter than segment BD.

Answer: The second table

Step-by-step explanation:

For the table to show  proportional relationship between x and y , then they must have a common ratio. that is x/y must be the same throughout

Table 1

[tex]x_{1}[/tex] = 1                [tex]y_{1}[/tex] = 2

[tex]x_{2}[/tex] = 3               [tex]y_{2}[/tex] = 5

[tex]x_{3}[/tex] = 4               [tex]y_{3}[/tex] = 8

[tex]x_{4}[/tex] = 7               [tex]y_{4}[/tex] = 14

[tex]\frac{x_{1}}{y_{1}}[/tex] = 1/2

[tex]\frac{x_{2}}{y_{2}}[/tex] = 3/5

[tex]\frac{x_{3}}{y_{3}}[/tex] = 4/8 = 1/2

[tex]\frac{x_{4}}{y_{4}}[/tex]= 7/14 = 1/2

Since the ratio is not the same throughout , then x and y are not proportional

Table 2

[tex]x_{1}[/tex] = 7               [tex]y_{1}[/tex] = 1

[tex]x_{2}[/tex] = 14               [tex]y_{2}[/tex] = 2

[tex]x_{3}[/tex] = 28               [tex]y_{3}[/tex] = 4

[tex]x_{4}[/tex] = 35              [tex]y_{4}[/tex] = 5

[tex]\frac{x_{1}}{y_{1}}[/tex] = 7/1 = 7

[tex]\frac{x_{2}}{y_{2}}[/tex] = 14/2 = 7

[tex]\frac{x_{3}}{y_{3}}[/tex] = 28/4 = 7

[tex]\frac{x_{4}}{y_{4}}[/tex]= 35/5 = 7

Since the ratio is the same throughout , it means that x and y are proportional.

Doing the same for table 3 and 4 , x and y are not proportional

Answer:

Answer:

a. Fraction of games won by team is [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex].

b. Total games played by Katy as catcher is 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question: A baseball team played 32 games and lost 8 Katy was the catcher in 5/8 of the winning games and 1/4 of the losing games.

a. What fraction of the games did the team win?

b. In how many games did Katy play catcher?

Given: Total number of games= 32

           Total games lost= 8.

           Katy was the catcher in 5/8 of the winning games.

           Katy was the catcher in 1/4 of the losing games.

Now, finding total number games that team won.

Winning total= [tex]32-8= 24[/tex]

∴ Total number of games that team won is 24.

Next finding fraction of the games did the team win.

Fraction of games won by team is [tex]\frac{Games\ won}{Total\ number\ of\ games}[/tex]

∴ Fraction of games won by team = [tex]\frac{24}{32} = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Fraction of games won by team is [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Lets find out numbers of games Katy play chatcher.

We know, Katy was the catcher in 5/8 of the winning games.

∴ Katy was catcher= [tex]\frac{5}{8} \times 24= 5\times 3[/tex]

Katy was catcher in 15 of the wining games.

We also know, Katy was the catcher in 1/4 of the losing games.

∴ Katy was catcher= [tex]\frac{1}{4} \times 8= 1\times 2[/tex]

Katy was the catcher in 2 of the losing games.

Total games played by Katy as catcher= Catcher in wining games+ catcher in losing games.

∴ Total games played by Katy as catcher= [tex]15+2= 17 games.[/tex]

Hence, total games played by Katy as catcher is 17.

Final answer:

To find out how many medals Germany secured in the 2006 Winter Olympics, we denote the number of medals Sweden won as S and create an equation based on the problem's description. Solving for S, we find that Sweden won 14 medals, so Germany, with one more than twice the number of Sweden's medals, secured 29 medals in total.

Explanation:

The question requires us to solve a problem that involves understanding and creating equations based on the given information.

Let's denote the number of medals Sweden won as S. According to the problem, China won S - 3 medals, and Germany won 2S + 1 medals. The total number of medals won by all three countries is 54, so the equation to represent this information is:

S + (S - 3) + (2S + 1) = 54

By combining like terms, we get:

4S - 2 = 54

Now, we will solve for S:

4S = 56 ⇒ S = 14

Now that we know Sweden won 14 medals, we can determine the number of medals Germany secured, which is 2S + 1:

2(14) + 1 = 29

Therefore, Germany secured 29 medals in the 2006 Winter Olympics.

If a ordered pair is a solution of  a equation, then the ordered pair, must satisfy the equation (makes the equation true)

If a ordered pair is a solution of the system of equations, then the ordered pair, must satisfy the equations of the system (makes both equations true)

we have

[tex]x+y=4[/tex] ----> first equation

[tex]x-y=-6[/tex] ----> second equation

step 1

Verify if the ordered pair satisfy  the first equation

Substitute the values of x and y of the ordered pair in the first equation  

For x=-1, y=5

The ordered pair is a solution to the first equation because it makes the first  equation true

step 2

Verify if the ordered pair satisfy  the second equation

Substitute the values of x and y of the ordered pair in the second equation  

For x=-1, y=5    

[tex]-1-5=-6[/tex]

[tex]-6=-6[/tex] ---> is true

The ordered pair satisfy the second equation

so

The ordered pair is a solution to the second equation because it makes the second  equation true

therefore

The ordered pair (-1, 5) is a solution to the system because it makes both equations true

Step-by-step explanation:

The dividend is [tex]8,[/tex] the divisor is [tex]\dfrac{1}{6}.[/tex] Divide the dividend by the divisor (division by fraction means multiplication by its reciprocal):

[tex]8\div \dfrac{1}{6}=8\times \dfrac{6}{1}=8\times 6=48,[/tex]

so the quotient is 48, not [tex]\dfrac{1}{48}.[/tex]

To check the answer, Patel has to multiply the quotient by the divisor to get the dividend. Check answer:

[tex]48\times \dfrac{1}{6}=\dfrac{48}{6}=8[/tex]

Hence, Patel found the incorrect quotient and checked his work using multiplication incorrectly.

The most accurate description of Patel's work is option D. Patel found an incorrect quotient and checked his work using multiplication incorrectly. therefore, option D. Patel found an incorrect quotient and checked his work using multiplication incorrectly.

Patel initially calculated 8 divided by 1/6 as 1/48, which is incorrect.

The correct quotient is 48.

When Patel multiplied 1/48 by 6, he got 1/8, which is also incorrect.

The correct result should be 48, not 1/8.

So, Patel's division was incorrect, and his check using multiplication was also incorrect.

In summary, Patel made an error in the initial division and didn't accurately check his work using multiplication, leading to an incorrect final result in both cases.

Answer: (1)  x²y (2) 7pqr  (3) a  (4) 6a²  (5) y³z²

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)  x^4y³ and x²y

    x²y      = x²y

Therefore the Highest Common factor

               x²y which is the common factor.

(2) 14p²qr^4 = 2 x 7 x p² x q  x r^4

   49p²q²r    = 7 x 7 x p² x q² x r

   35pqr       = 5 x 7 x p x q x r

Therefore HCF =  7 x p x q x r

AM ≅ BM     ……….{Given}

∠ AMO ≅ ∠ BMO    …………..{measure of each angle is 90° given}

MO ≅ MO      ……….{Reflexive property}

ΔAMO  ≅ Δ BMO ….{ By Side-Angle-Side test}

∴ AO ≅ BO ...{corresponding sides of Congruent triangles or CPCT}

on substituting the values we get

[tex]5x-8=3x\\\\5x-3x=8\\\\2x=8\\\\x=\frac{8}{2}=4[/tex]

Therefore the value of x is 4.

Answer:

I'm not Certain but I'm thinking that it would be 4 boxes of the regular tea and 5 of the herbal tea.

Step-by-step explanation:

herbal- $1.50

regular- $1

$1*4 =$4

$1.50*5 = $7.50

$4.00+ $7.50=11.50

Answer:

Herbal tea box = 3

Regular tea box =  7

Step-by-step explanation:

Le x be the number of herbal tea box and y be the number of regular tea box.

The herbal tea variety cost $1.50 per box and the regular variety cost $1.00 per box they bought A total of 10 boxes and spent $11.50.

[tex]x+y=10\Rightarrow y=10-x[/tex]          .... (1)

[tex]1.50x+1.00y=11.50[/tex]             ... (2)

From (1) and (2) we get

[tex]1.50x+1.00(10-x)=11.50[/tex]

[tex]1.50x+10-1.00x=11.50[/tex]

[tex]0.50x=11.50-10[/tex]

[tex]0.50x=1.50[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{1.50}{0.50}=3[/tex]

Substitute x=3 in equation (1).

[tex]y=10-x=10-3=7[/tex]

Therefore, the number of herbal tea boxes is 3 and the number of regular tea boxes is 7.
