Answer:
13,200 yearsExplanation:
These steps explain how you estimate the age of the parchment:
1) Carbon - 14 half-life: τ = 5730 years
2) Number of half-lives elapsed: n
3) Age of the parchment = τ×n = 5730×n years = 5730n
4) Exponential decay:
The ratio of the final amount of the radioactive isotope C-14 to the initial amount of the same is one half (1/2) raised to the number of half-lives elapsed (n):
A / Ao = (1/2)ⁿ5) The parchment fragment had about 74% as much C-14 radioactivity as does plant material on Earth today:
⇒ A / Ao = 74% = 0.74⇒ A / Ao = 0.74 = (1/2)ⁿ ⇒ ln (0.74) = n ln (1/2) [apply natural logarithm to both sides]⇒ n = ln (1/2) / ln (0.74)⇒ n ≈ - 0.693 / ( - 0.301) = 2.30Hence, 2.30 half-lives have elapsed and the age of the parchment is:
τ×n = 5730n = 5730 (2.30) = 13,179 years Round to the nearest hundred years: 13,200 yearsIf 15% of the customer's total is $22.05, then the customer's total is _______."
let's say is "x", so "x" is then 100% of the whole bill.
we know 15% is 22.05, what is "x"?
[tex]\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 22.05&15\\ x&100 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{22.05}{x}=\cfrac{15}{100}\implies 2205=15x \\\\\\ \cfrac{2205}{15}=x\implies 147=x[/tex]
Answer:
$147
Step-by-step explanation:
15% over 100 is .15
So you get .15x= 22.05
Get x by itself by dividing .15 by .15
whatever you do to one side you have to do to the other so divide 22.05 by .15 and you get $147
Suppose you graphed every single point of the form $(2t + 3, 3-3t)$. For example, when $t=2$, we have $2t + 3 = 7$ and $3-3t = -3$, so $(7,-3)$ is on the graph. Explain why the graph is a line, and find an equation whose graph is this line.
Answer:

3x +2y = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
The x-coordinate and the y-coordinate are both linear functions of t, so their relationship to each other is linear. A graph of those (x, y) points must be a line.
___
You can find an equation by solving one of the expressions for t, then substituting that into the other.
x = 2t +3
t = (x -3)/2
Substituting into the y expression, we get ...
y = 3 -3(x -3)/2
y = (-3/2)x + 15/2
3x +2y = 15 . . . . . . . add 3/2x and multiply by 2 to put into standard form
_____
The attached graph shows a portion of the line defined parametrically (0 ≤ t ≤ 1). It is dotted so you can see it overlays the line defined by the linear equation in x and y.
A couple is planning to have 3 children. Assuming that having a boy and having a girl are equally likely, and that the gender of one child has no influence on (or, is independent of) the gender of another, what is the probability that the couple will have exactly 2 girls? The "random experiment" in this case is having 3 children, as odd as that may sound in this context. The next and most important step is to determine what all of the possible outcomes are, and list them (i.e., list the sample space S). In this case, each outcome represents a possible combination of genders of 3 children (note that examples with the same number of boys and girls but a different birth order must be listed separately).
Answer:
44.444%, (B, B, B), (B, B, G), (B, G, B), (B, G, B), (B, G, G), (G, B, B), (G, B, G), (G, G, B), (G, G, G)
Step-by-step explanation:
We will start with the second part of the question, listing out all of the possible combinations that can occur from this data set. There is a 50/50 chance of having a girl or a boy, and there are three children. For now we'll use B to represent a boy and G for a girl. It goes as follows:
(B, B, B), (B, B, G), (B, G, B), (B, G, B), (B, G, G), (G, B, B), (G, B, G), (G, G, B), (G, G, G)
I often find it easy to write out a branch diagram to help me visualize this problem and make sure I have all possibilities. (See attached image)
Count the total number of combinations (9). Next, count the number that include exactly 2 girls (4). With this information, we now know that there is a 4 out of 9 chance of having exactly 2 girls and one boy. 4/9 is in simplest form, so all you have to do is find the percentage (44.444%)

the kerns pen company makes ballpoint pens. the fixed cost of operation for one month averages $53500. the cost of producing one pen is $.75 and the pens are sold for $1.05 each. how many pens must be sold in order for the oay to break even?
Answer:
178,334 pens
Step-by-step explanation:
The company makes $0.30 above the variable cost on each pen, so must sell $53,500/$0.30 ≈ 178,334 pens to cover the cost of operation.
_____
Sale of 178,333 pens will result in a total cost of $0.10, so doesn't quite make the company break even. Sale of 178,334 pens will result in profit of $0.20.
A cricular arena is lit by 5 lights equally spaced around the perimeter of the arena. What is the measure of each angle formed by the lights on the perimeter?
Answer:
108°
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that circle with center A is a circular arena. Points B, C, D, E and F are 5 lights. These 5 points form regular pentagon (because these 5 lights are equally spaced around the perimeter of the arena).
The sum of all interior angles of pentagon can be calculated using following formula
[tex](n-2)\cdot 180^{\circ},\\ \\(5-2)\cdot 180^{\circ}=3\cdot 180^{\circ}=540^{\circ}[/tex]
All interior angles in regular pentagon are of equal measure, so
[tex]\dfrac{540^{\circ}}{5}=108^{\circ}[/tex]
Thus, the measure of each angle formed by the lights on the perimeter is 108°.

The sum of two numbers is 842. The difference is 314. Find the numbers.
Let's call the two numbers x and y.
We know that x+y = 842 and that x-y = 314
Now that we have two equations, we can solve using substitution by solving for one variable in one of the equations, and plugging that in for the same variable in the other equation.
Lets solve for x in the second equation to get:
x = 314 + y
Now plug in 314+y for x in the first equation:
(314 + y) + y = 842
Combine like terms:
314 + 2y = 842
Now solve for y:
2y = 842-314
2y = 528
y = 264
Finally, plug 264 in for y to solve for x:
x + 264 = 842
x = 842-264
x = 578
The two numbers are 578 and 264.

2. Drag and drop an answer to each box to correctly explain the derivation of the formula for the volume of a pyramid.
3. The equation for a circle is x2−8x+y2−2y−8=0 .
What is the equation of the circle in standard form?
Answer:-
Central angle , Ф/2π , A = Ф/2 r²
The ratio is 1/3 , V = 1/3 Bh
The equation of the circle in standard form is (x - 4)² + (k - 1)² = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets revise the rules of the area of the sector of a circle
- The area of the sector which has a central angle Ф° is
(Ф°/360°) × πr², where 360° is the measure of the circle and r is
the radius of the circle
- The area of the sector which has a central angle Ф radians is
(1/2) r²Ф
* Lets complete the missing in the 1st picture
- The ratio of the sector's area A to the circle's area is equal to the
ratio of the central angle to the measure of a full rotation of the circle
- A full rotation of a circle is 2π. This proportion can written as
A/πr² = Ф/2π
- Multiply both sides by πr² to get A = Ф/2 r² where Ф is the measure
of the central angle and r is the radius of the circle
* Lets revise the rules of the volume of the prism and the volume
of the pyramid, where they have the same base and height
- The volume of the prism = area of the base × its height
- The volume of the pyramid = 1/3 × area of the base × its height
- From them the ratio of the volume of the pyramid to the volume
of the prism is 1/3
- The formula of the volume of the prism is V = Bh, where B is the
area of the base and h is the height, the formula of the volume
of the pyramid is V = 1/3 Bh
* Lets revise the standard form of the equation of a circle with
center (h , k) and radius r
- The equation is: (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
∴ x² - 2hx + h² + y² - 2ky + k² - r² = 0
∵ x² - 8x + y² - 2y - 8 = 0
- Lets equate the two equation
∴ x² - 2hx + h² + y² - 2ky + k² - r² = x² - 8x + y² - 2y - 8 = 0
∵ -2h = -8 ⇒ ÷ -2
∴ h = 4
∵ -2k = -2 ⇒ ÷ -2
∴ k = 1
∵ h² + k² - r² = -8
∴ (4)² + (1)² - r² = -8
∴ 16 + 1 - r² = -8
∴ 17 - r² = -8 ⇒ subtract 17 from both sides
∴ -r² = -15 × -1
∴ r² = 25
* Substitute the values of h , k , r in the equation of the standard
form of the circle
∴ (x - 4)² + (k - 1)² = 25
* The equation of the circle in standard form is (x - 4)² + (k - 1)² = 25

Answer:
462 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The centerline of the cloth area has a radius of (28 cm + 14 cm)/2 = 21 cm, so its length will be 1/4 of the circumference of a circle of that radius:
cloth centerline length = (1/4)·2πr = (π/2)·21 cm = (22/7)/2 · 21 cm = 33 cm
The width of the cloth portion is ...
28 cm - 14 cm = 14 cm
so the area of the cloth portion will be the product of centerline length and width:
(33 cm)(14 cm) = 462 cm^2
Which of the following is the third term of the expansion (a + b)^n ?
C(n, 2)a^n - 2b^2
C(n, 3)a^n - 3b
C(n, 2)a^2b^n - 2
Answer:
C(n, 2)a^(n-2)b^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Generally, the expansion is written in decreasing powers of "a", so the first few terms would have variable constellations that look like ...
a^n, a^(n-1)b, a^(n-2)b^2, ...
The coefficients would be (in order), C(n, k) for k increasing from 0, so the coefficient of the 3rd term would be C(n, 2).

For flights from a particular airport in January, there is a 30 percent chance of a flight being delayed because of icy weather. If a flight is delayed because of icy weather, there is a 10 percent chance the flight will also be delayed because of a mechanical problem. If a flight is not delayed because of icy weather, there is a 5 percent chance that it will be delayed because of a mechanical problem. If one flight is selected at random from the airport in January, what is the probability that the flight selected will have at least one of the two types of delays?
Answer:
0.335
Step-by-step explanation:
1. There is a 30 percent chance of a flight being delayed because of icy weather ,then the probability of being delayed is 0.3 and of being not delayed is 0.7.
2. If a flight is delayed because of icy weather, there is a 10 percent chance the flight will also be delayed because of a mechanical problem, then the probability of being delayed is 0.1 and the probabilty of not being delayed is 0.9.
3. If a flight is not delayed because of icy weather, there is a 5 percent chance that it will be delayed because of a mechanical problem (MP), then the probability of being delayed is 0.05 and the probabilty of not being delayed is 0.95. (See attached probability tree)
Delayed of icy weather - 0.3
Delayed of MP when weather is not icy - 0.7·0.05=0.035
Now, if one flight is selected at random from the airport in January, the probability that the flight selected will have at least one of the two types of delays is
0.3+0.035=0.335
The probability that the flight selected will have at least one of the two types of delays is [tex]0.335[/tex].
1. There is a [tex]30[/tex]% chance of a flight being delayed because of icy weather, [tex]\therefore[/tex] probability of being delayed is [tex]P(a)=0.3[/tex]
probability of not being delayed is [tex]P(a')=1-0.3=0.7[/tex].
2. If a flight is delayed because of icy weather, there is [tex]10[/tex]% chance the flight will also be delayed because of a mechanical problem,
[tex]\therefore[/tex] probability of being delayed is [tex]P(b)=0.1[/tex]
probability of not being delayed is [tex]P(b')=1-0.1=0.9[/tex].
3. If a flight is not delayed because of icy weather, there is [tex]5[/tex]% chance that it will be delayed because of a mechanical problem ,
[tex]\therefore[/tex]probability of being delayed is [tex]P(c)=0.05[/tex]
probability of not being delayed is [tex]P(c')=1-0.05=0.95[/tex].
Delayed of mechanical problem when weather is not icy is:
[tex]P(a'\cap c)=P(a').P(c)=0.7\times 0.05=0.035[/tex]
Now, if one flight is selected at random from the airport in January, the probability that the flight selected will have at least one of the two types of delays is
[tex]P(a'\cap c)+P(a)=0.035+0.3=0.335[/tex]

How does the range of g(x)=6/x compare with the range of the parent function f(x)=1/x?
The range of the function g(x)=6/x is the same as the range of the parent function f(x)=1/x, which is all real numbers except zero, despite the scaling factor '6'. This is because transformations other than shifts do not change the range.
Explanation:The comparison between the functions g(x)=6/x and f(x)=1/x lies in the understanding of how modifications to a parent function affect its range. The function f(x)=1/x is a parent function and its range is all real numbers except for zero. This is because as x approaches zero, the output of the function approaches infinity, thus, zero is not included in the range.
When we look at the function g(x)=6/x, the multiplier '6' just scales the values of the parent function by a factor of 6. This means the range will still be all real numbers except for zero, just like in the parent function. This is because the function transformations do not affect the range of the function that has a rational form like f(x)=1/x unless there are additional horizontal or vertical shifts.

Measure of angle LOI= 38 degrees
Measure of angle JOP= 84 degrees
Find measure of angle JKP
Answer:
The measure of angle JKP is 61°
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If the measure of angle m<LOI=38°
then
m arc IL=38° -----> by central angle
and
If the measure of angle m<JOP=84°
then
m arc JP=84° -----> by central angle
Remember that
The measure of the interior angle is the semi-sum of the arcs that comprise it and its opposite.
so
m<JKP=(1/2)[arc IL+arc JP]
substitute the values
m<JKP=(1/2)[38°+84°]=61°

Someone explain to me how I do this law of sines problem
Answer:
44.1 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the length of side "a", you need to know the measure of angle A. That is found by making use of the fact that the sum of angles in a triangle is 180°.
102° + 28° + A = 180°
A = 180° -130° = 50°
Now, you can fill in the given information in the given equation and solve for "a":
sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b
sin(50°)/a = sin(28°)/(27 cm)
Multiplying by a(27 cm) gives ...
sin(50°)(27 cm) = a·sin(28°)
Dividing by the coefficient of "a", we get ...
a = (27 cm)sin(50°)/sin(28°) ≈ 44.0563 cm
Rounded to the nearest tenth, this is ...
a ≈ 44.1 cm
_____
Since we're looking for a side length (not an angle), I prefer to write the Law of Sines formula "upside down" from that shown:
a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)
Then it is one step to get to ...
a = b·sin(A)/sin(B) . . . . . . multiply by sin(A)
Preston wants to create a garden that backs up to an existing fence in his yard. He won't need to enclose the garden with fencing and he only has 85 feet of fencing available. What was the largest dimensions of the garden be if you could encloses the three sides of the garden and use the existing fence as the fourth side? If necessary, round answer to the nearest tenth.
Answer:
42.5 ft by 21.3 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The largest area is obtained when half the available fence is used parallel to the existing fence, and the other half is used to fence the two ends of the rectangle. Here, that means the dimension parallel to the existing fence is ...
(85 ft)/2 = 42.5 ft
and the ends of the rectangular garden are ...
(42.5 ft)/2 = 21.25 ft ≈ 21.3 ft
_____
You can figure this as follows:
Let x represent the length of fence parallel to the existing fence. Then the other dimension of the fenced area is (85 -x)/2 and the fenced area is the product of these dimensions.
area = x(85-x)/2
This expression describes a downward-opening parabola with zeros at x=0 and at x=85. The vertex (maximum) will be found where x is halfway between these values, at x = (0 +85)/2 = 42.5.
Area is maximized when 42.5 ft of fencing is used parallel to the existing fence, and the other half of the fencing is used for the other two sides of the enclosure.

Answer:
15°
Step-by-step explanation:
If CB is a diameter, the arc BKAC is a semicircle and has a degree measure of 180. If the measure of angle BCK is 20 and it is an inscribed angle, then the measure of the arc it intercepts is twice that. So arc BK measures 40 degrees. That means that arc KA has a measure that is found by subtracting arc AC and arc BK from 180. 180 - 40 - 110 = 30. If that arc is 30 and the angle that intercepts it is inscribed, then the angle measure is half the measure of the arc. So the angle is 15°
