Answer 1
I'm pretty sure it's b.. when in doubt choose b
Answer 2
Final answer:

The correct statement is (a), 'There is a correlation of 0.54 between the social intelligence of a 6-year old and his weight.' Correlation values range from -1 to +1, and units or nominal variables can't be used.

Explanation:

The correct statement among the given options is (a) 'There is a correlation of 0.54 between the social intelligence of a 6-year old and his weight.' In a correlation, the value ranges from -1 to +1 where -1 indicates a perfect negative correlation, +1 indicates a perfect positive correlation, and 0 indicates no correlation. The other statements, (b), (c), (d) and (e), are blunders because the correlation value (r) in (d) exceeds +1 which is impossible, the units in (b) and (c) are incorrectly applied as correlation doesn't have physical units, and in (e), gender is a nominal variable for which correlation cannot be calculated.

A rectangle is drawn with perimeter 75 cm. The length is 13 more than the width. What is the length?

Answers

The length of the rectangle is 25.25.

The perimeter of the rectangle is 75 cm, then the length of the rectangle will be equal to 25.25 cm.

What is the perimeter?

A shape's perimeter is the whole distance encircling it. It is the perimeter or length of the contour of any geometric two-dimensional shape. The circumference of several figures could be comparable based on the measurements.

As per the information provided by the question,

The perimeter of the rectangle = 75 cm

Let the width of the rectangle is w.

Then, length (l) is 13 more than,

l = w + 13   (i)

As per the formula of the perimeter of a rectangle,

[tex]P=2(l+w)[/tex]

75 = 2(w + 13 + w)

75 = 4w + 26

4w = 49

w = 12.25 cm

Substitute w = 12.25 cm in equation (i)

l = 12.25 + 13

l = 25.25 cm.

Nellie is buying bird seed to put in her bird feeders. She uses about 10 pounds of bird seed each week, but has room to store any extra that she purchases.The bird seed comes in 3 different sizes as given below: 3.5 pounds for $2.52 7.5 pounds for $5.40 11 pounds for $7.92 Nellie is trying to be a smart shopper and get the best deal on the bird seed. Which size bag of bird seed should Nellie buy?

Answers

All the bird seed bags Nellie is considering have the same cost per pound ($0.72). She should choose based on her weekly usage and storage preference. Any size will be cost-effective.

To determine the best deal on bird seed, Nellie needs to calculate the unit price for each option. The unit price is the price per pound of bird seed.

For the 3.5-pound bag:

[tex]\[ \text{Unit price} = \frac{\$2.52}{3.5 \text{ pounds}} \approx \$0.72/\text{pound} \]\\For the 7.5-pound bag:\[ \text{Unit price} = \frac{\$5.40}{7.5 \text{ pounds}} = \$0.72/\text{pound} \]For the 11-pound bag:\[ \text{Unit price} = \frac{\$7.92}{11 \text{ pounds}} \approx \$0.72/\text{pound} \][/tex]

Since all three options have the same unit price of approximately $0.72 per pound, Nellie should choose the size that offers her the most pounds of bird seed for the best value, as he has anyway room for storing extra purchase. Here, can choose to buy any of them.

What is the radical form of each of the given expressions? 4 1/7 AND 4 7/2 AND 7 1/4 AND 7 1/2 I WILL UPVOTE

Answers

assuming these are 4^(1/7), 4^(7/2), 7^(1/4) and 7^(1/2), the conversion process is pretty quick. the denominator, or bottom, of your fraction exponent becomes the "index" of your radical -- in ∛, "3" is your index, just for reference. the numerator, aka the top of the fraction exponent, becomes a power inside the radical.

4^(1/7) would become ⁷√4  .... the bottom of the fraction becomes the small number included in the radical and the 4 goes beneath the radical
in cases such as this one, where 1 is on top of the fraction radical, that number does technically go with the 4 beneath the radical--however, 4¹ = 4 itself, so there is no need to write the implied exponent.

4^(7/2) would become √(4⁷)  ... the 7th power goes with the number under your radical and the "2" becomes a square root

7^(1/4) would become ⁴√7  ... like the first answer, the bottom of the fraction exponent becomes the index of the radical and 7 goes beneath the radical. again, the 1 exponent goes with the 7 beneath the radical, but 7¹ = 7

7^(1/2) would become, simply, √7

This is a little it hard... I am wondering if others have a better way to solve it.

============================= 

2sin2x−cosx=1 

4sinxcosx = 1 + cosx 

16sin^2xcos^2x = 1 + 2cosx + cos^2x 

16(1 - cos^2x)cos^2x = 1 + 2cosx + cos^2x 

16cos^2x - 16cos^4x = 1 + 2cosx + cos^2x 

16cos^4x - 15cos^2x + 2cosx + 1 = 0 

let cosx = Y 

16Y^4 - 15Y^2 + 2Y + 1 = 0 

(Y + 1)(16Y^3 - 16Y^2 + Y + 1) = 0 


there are four values for Y, -1, -0.2, 0.367, 0.836. 

Then you solve for Y. 

For example, Y = -1 means cosx = -1, x = π.

The following list shows the items and prices for a restaurant order. Calculate the total amount if there is 7.5% tax and the customer leaves a 15% gratuity.
1 appetizer: $8.99
2 entrees: $14.99 each
1 entree: $12.99
3 drinks: $1.99 each
a. $70.96
b. $71.62
c. $75.31
d. $75.97

Answers

The first thing we are going to do to find the total cost of the meal before tax:

Total cost before tax = $8.99 + 2($14.99) + $12.99 + 3($1.99)

Total cost before tax = $8.99 + $29.98 + 12.99 + $5.97

Total cost before tax = $57.93

Regarding the 15% gratuity, remember that the unofficial rule for tipping at restaurants is to tip according to the actual value of the meal and not the tax, so we calculate the value of the tip first, and then we add it to the total at the end of our calculations.

Tip = 15%($57.93) = $8.69

Now, lets calculate the tax

Tax = 7.5%($57.93) = $4.34

Finally, we can calculate the total cost of the meal

Total cost = cost before tax + tip + tax

Total cost = $57.93 + $8.69 + $4.34 = $70.96

We can conclude that the correct answer is a. $70.96

Answer:

$70.96

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 1 appetizer = $8.99

Cost of 1 entrees= $14.99

Cost of 2 entrees= [tex]14.99 \times 2 = 29.98[/tex]

Cost of 1 entree: $12.99

Cost of 3 drinks = 1.99 \times 3 =5.97

Total cost before tax = $8.99 + $29.98 + 12.99 + $5.97

Total cost before tax = $57.93

there is 7.5% tax

So, tax =[tex]7.5 \% \times 57.93 = \frac{7.5}{100} \times 57.93 =4.34[/tex]

The customer leaves a 15% gratuity.

Gratuity=[tex]15 \% \times 57.93 = \frac{15}{100} \times 57.93 =8.69[/tex]

So, Total cost including tax and gratuity = $57.93 + $8.69 + $4.34 = $70.96

So, Option A is true

mary purchased 3 1/2 pounds of bananas. If the loaf of banana bread requires 3/4 pounds of bananas, how many loaves of banana bread can she make with the bananas.

Answers

for this one a simple way that you can think of it is that 1 pound of banana is equivalent to 100, 3/4 pounds of banana is 75, 1/2 pounds of banana is 50, etc. 

3 1/2 pounds of banana = 350 

3/4 pounds of banana = 75 

If i want to find out how many loafs of banana bread I can make if ONE loaf requires 3/4 pounds of banana, and i have 3 1/2 pounds of banana then I divide:

350 / 75 = 4.66 

So, with 3 1/2 pounds of bananas you can successfully create 4 loafs of banana bread. the remaining .66 is not enough banana to make another loaf. 

what is the largest perfect square of 45? ...?

Answers

You need to factor this number into a product of two numbers, one of which must be a perfect square. Then you take the square root of this perfect square and get a rational number.
So, the factors of 45 are 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, and 45.
As you can see, number 9 is the largest perfect square here. 
Final answer:

The largest perfect square less than or equal to 45 is 36, which is the square of 6. Squaring numbers less than 7 shows that 36 is the perfect square closest to, but not exceeding 45.

Explanation:The largest perfect square that is less than or equal to 45 is the result of the greatest integer squared that does not exceed 45. To find this, you would look for the highest whole number whose square is less than or equal to 45. The numbers less than 45 are 1, 2, 3, ..., and so on. Squaring these: 12=1, 22=4, 32=9, 42=16, 52=25, 62=36. The next number, 7, squared is 49, which is greater than 45. Therefore, 62=36 is the largest perfect square less than or equal to 45. This concept is essential when simplifying square roots or in problems dealing with areas of squares.

The range of which function includes -4?
A. y=sqrt(x)-5
B. y=sqrt(x)+5
C. y=sqrt(x+5)
D. y=sqrt(x-5)

Answers

Answer: The correct answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Range is defined as the set of 'y' values for which the function is defined.

The graph of [tex]y=\sqrt{x}[/tex] passes through the origin and lies in the first quadrant and in the shape of half parabola. The image is attached below.

The alteration in the 'x' term will transform the graph in the x-direction. In order to find the range we will consider the y-values only. So, we can neglect option C and D.

When we add some constant 'C' in the function, then the graph will shift upward by C-units.

When we subtract some constant 'C' in the function, then the graph will shift downward by C-units.

Therefore, the graph of [tex]y=\sqrt{x}-5[/tex] starts with the point (0,-5) and hence, the graph will lie above this point. The image of the graph is attached below.

As, the range of the function is [tex]y\in {-5,\infty}[/tex], it means that -4 is also included in this range.

Hence, the correct option is A.

The correct option where the range includes -4 is y = sqrt(x) - 5. Other options do not produce negative values in their ranges. Hence, Option A is the correct answer.

To determine which function's range includes -4, we will analyze each option:

Option A: y = sqrt(x) - 5
The range of sqrt(x) is [0, ∞). Thus, y = sqrt(x) - 5 ranges from [-5, ∞). This includes -4 as -4 is between -5 and ∞.Option B: y = sqrt(x) + 5
The range of sqrt(x) is [0, ∞). Therefore, y = sqrt(x) + 5 ranges from [5, ∞), and this does not include -4.Option C: y = sqrt(x+5)
The range of sqrt(x+5) is [0, ∞). This does not include negative values like -4.Option D: y = sqrt(x-5)
The range of sqrt(x-5) is [0, ∞). This range does not include -4.

Based on the above analysis, the correct answer is Option A: y = sqrt(x) - 5.
