Assignment 01.11 Estimating
Step 1- Read the passage Who was Leonardo da Vinci?


Who was Leonardo da Vinci?
Leonardo da Vinci trained as a painter during the Renaissance and became a true master of the craft. His amazing powers of observation and skill as an illustrator enabled him to notice and recreate the effects he saw in nature, and added a special liveliness to all of his portraits. Curious as well as observant, he constantly tried to explain what he saw, and described many experiments to test his ideas. Because he wrote down and sketched so many of his observations in his notebooks, we know that he was among the very first to take a scientific approach towards understanding how our world works and how we see it. He had a keen eye and quick mind that led him to make important scientific discoveries, yet he never published his ideas. He was a gentle vegetarian who loved animals and despised war, yet he worked as a military engineer to invent advanced and deadly weapons. He was one of the greatest painters of the Italian Renaissance, yet he left only a handful of completed paintings.

Step 2- In the paragraph above, estimate the number of words by using the following three methods, and answer the the four questions that follow. You must show all work. Even if you have the right answer you will not get full credit without work.

Method 1 - Count the number of words in one sentence
and then multiply that number by the number of sentences in the paragraph.
Method 2 - Count the number of words in one line
and then multiply that number by the number of lines in the paragraph.
Method 3 - Find the number of words in three lines
and then divide by three to find out the average number of words in these lines.
Then multiply this by the number of lines in the paragraph.

Question 1
What is estimate of the total number of words with method 1? What sentence did you use?
Question 2
What is estimate of the total number of words with method 2? What line did you use?
Question 3
What is estimate of the total number of words with method 3?
Question 4
Which estimation method is the closest to the actual number of words?

Problem

If you deposit $500 into an account paying 12% annual interest compounded yearly , how much money will be in the account after 30 years?

Result

The amount is $14979.96 and the interest is $14479.96.

Final answer:

The investment grows to $1,555.88 in 10 years, $4,822.49 in 20 years, and $14,974.46 in 30 years.

Explanation:

To calculate the future value of an investment with compound interest, you can use the formula A = P(1 + r/n)[tex]^{(nt)}[/tex], where:

P is the principal amount (the initial amount of money)

r is the annual interest rate (decimal)

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

t is the time the money is invested for, in years

For your case, where you invest $500 at 12% compounded annually, this becomes:

A = 500(1 + 0.12/1)[tex]^{(1t)}[/tex]

Calculating for 10, 20, and 30 years:

A = 500(1 + 0.12)¹⁰ = $1,555.88 after 10 years

A = 500(1 + 0.12)²⁰ = $4,822.49 after 20 years

A = 500(1 + 0.12)³⁰ = $14,974.46 after 30 years

Answer: 10 inches per year.

If the snake is now 3 foot 9 inches, we can add up how many inches that is by converting feet to inches. 1 foot=12 inches, so 3 feet is 36 inches. We then add the 9 inches.

36+9= 45

Since the snake had already accomplished being 5 inches at birth, we can subtract 5 from 45.

This gives us 40.

Since the snake was born 4 years ago we divide 40 by 4.

40÷4= 10

Answer:

73.21% annual percentage rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 foot 9 inches = 45 inches

45 = 5(1 + r)4

9 = (1 + r)4

91/4 = 1 + r

r = 0.73205

therefore,

r = 73.21%

Answer:

the price of a 250-milligram bottle is $8

he price of a 500-milligram bottle is $12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

x = price of a 250 mg dosage

y = price of a 500 mg dosage

Last month, the company sold 2,200 bottles of 250-milligram tablets and 1,800 bottles of 500-milligram tablets. The total sales revenue was $39,200

2200*x + 1800*y = 39200

The sales team has targeted sales of $44,000 for this month, to be achieved by selling of 2,200 bottles of each dosage.

2200*x + 2200*y = 44000

The system of equations result

2200*x + 1800*y = 39200

2200*x + 2200*y = 44000

We can easily solve it by graphing both equations, please see attached image

The answer is

x = $8

y = $12

In quadrant II, if sinΘ = 1/2, the value of cosΘ is -√(3/4).

In quadrant II, sine is positive and cosine is negative. Since sinΘ = 1/2, we can use the Pythagorean identity to find the value of cosΘ:

sin²Θ + cos²Θ = 1

Plugging in the value of sinΘ and solving for cosΘ, we get:

(1/2)² + cos²Θ = 1

1/4 + cos²Θ = 1

cos²Θ = 3/4

Taking the square root, we get:

cosΘ = ±√(3/4)

Since Θ lies in quadrant II where cosine is negative, the value of cosΘ is:

cosΘ = -√(3/4)

EXPLANATION

We want to find the difference;

[tex] \frac{9x}{3x + 5} - \frac{2}{3x { + 5}} [/tex]

This are like fractions or equivalent fractions.

We keep one of the denominators and subtract the numerators.

The difference is:

[tex]\frac{9x - 2}{3x + 5} [/tex]

Note that, we cannot simplify this further.

So we live the difference as it is.

Answer:

The correct answer is,

(9x - 2)/(3x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given two expression with variable x

9x/(3x + 5) and 2/(3x + 5)

To find the difference

Here the denominators of two expression are same, so we can write,

9x/(3x + 5) - 2/(3x + 5) = (9x - 2)/(3x + 5)

Therefore the correct answer is

(9x - 2)/(3x + 5)

Answer:

The percent of error in the measurement is 2%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percent of error associated with a reported measurement is calculate using the formula;

[tex]percenterror=\frac{error}{measurement}*100[/tex]

The error associated with a measurement is defined as half of the smallest unit of measurement used. The measurement reported was 2.5. The smallest unit of measurement for this reading is 0.1. The error is thus;

error = 0.1/2 = 0.05

The percent of error is thus;

[tex]\frac{0.05}{2.5}*100=2[/tex]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

1,048,576

Step-by-step explanation:

We can tell that this is a geometric sequence because each new term is a multiple of the previous term.  The common ratio is -2.

The pertinent formula is a(n) = -2 · (-2)^(n-1).

Thus, the 20th term of this sequence is a(20) = -2 · (-2)^(20-1), or

a(20) = -2 · (-2)^19, or 2^20, which comes out to 1,048,576 (same as the fourth possible answer).

The number that is impossible to divide by is 0, and your original number (X) cannot be 0 either. The possible values for your number are 11 and 22, and the corresponding numbers you divided it by are 1 and 2.

Let's assume the number you thought of is X, and the number you divided it by is Y. Based on the given information, we have the following equation:

X / Y = 11

To find the possible values for X and Y, we need to consider the factors of 11, which are 1 and 11. These factors provide us with potential pairs of X and Y:

X = 11 and Y = 1: When dividing 11 by 1, the result is indeed 11.

X = 22 and Y = 2: Dividing 22 by 2 gives us 11 as well.

So, the possible values for your number (X) are 11 and 22, and the corresponding numbers you divided it by (Y) are 1 and 2.

Now, let's discuss the numbers that are impossible to divide by or cannot be your original number. Any number divided by zero is undefined in mathematics. Hence, dividing by zero is not possible in this scenario. Therefore, the number 0 is impossible to divide by.

Additionally, your original number (X) cannot be 0. If X were 0, the equation would be:

0 / Y = 11

But any number divided by 11 is not equal to 0, which means X cannot be 0.

Answer:

3.  x = 4, NOT extraneous

4. x=12, extraneous

Step-by-step explanation:

3. Solve for x, √(2x +1) = 3 and identify if it's an extraneous solution or not.

Since the square root is already isolated on its side, the first step is to put both sides to their square value to get rid of the square root.  We then get:

2x + 1 = 9  =>   2x = 8   =>   x = 4

To see if x = 4 is an extraneous solution, we enter it in the original equation and see if it works:

√(2x +1) = √(2 * 4 +1)  = √9 = 3

3  equals 3... so it's NOT an extraneous solution

4. Solve for x, -4√(x-3) = 12 and identify if it's an extraneous solution or not.

This time the square root isn't alone on its side yet... so we have to isolate it, by dividing each side by -4:

-4√(x-3) = 12 becomes √(x-3) = -3

Then we raise each side to their square value to get rid of the square root:

x - 3 = 9  which becomes x = 12

To see if x = 12 is an extraneous solution, we enter it in the original equation and see if it works:

-4√(x-3) = -4√(12-3) = -4√(9) = -4 (3) = -12

-12 does not equal 12... so it's an extraneous solution

Answer:

C) 40% of 84

Step-by-step explanation

i don't know how to explain it T~T

The expression to estimate 36% of 84 is option D, 35% of 84, as it is the closest value to 36% that is also straightforward to calculate. Hence correct option D.

To estimate 36% of 84, you would want to choose the option that is closest to 36% without being too complicated to calculate quickly in your head. Among option A (30% of 84), option B (25% of 84), option C (40% of 84), and option D (35% of 84), the best estimate would be option D (35% of 84). This is because 35% is the closest value to 36% listed in the options and it would provide a reasonably accurate estimate that is easy to compute.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of the gambler winning the jackpot is calculated using the hypergeometric distribution, dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the total outcomes.

The scenario describes a hypergeometric distribution because the gambler's selections are made without replacement. The total number of outcomes, i.e., possible ways to draw nine numbers from twelve, is given by combination C(12,9).

The gambler wins if all four selected numbers are among the drawn numbers, which is represented by the combination C(4, 4) and the remaining five numbers are from the eight not selected by the gambler, represented by C(8, 5). Therefore, the favorable number of outcomes is C(4,4)*C(8,5).

To calculate the probability that the gambler wins the jackpot, we divide the favorable outcomes by the total outcomes: P(win) =  [C(4,4)*C(8,5)] / C(12,9).

The probability that the gambler wins the jackpot is: 0.0000092

To calculate the probability that the gambler wins the jackpot, we need to determine the total number of ways the casino can draw nine numbers from the first twelve positive integers and then divide this by the number of ways that the casino can draw nine numbers from the twelve positive integers without including any of the gambler's four selected numbers.

The total number of ways the casino can draw nine numbers from the first twelve positive integers is 12C9 = 220.

To calculate the number of ways that the casino can draw nine numbers from the twelve positive integers without including any of the gambler's four selected numbers, we first need to calculate the number of ways the casino can draw nine numbers from the eight positive integers that are not selected by the gambler. This is 8C9 = 8.

However, this does not take into account the order in which the numbers are drawn. Since the numbers are drawn without replacement, the order matters. Therefore, we need to multiply 8C9 by 9! to account for all the possible orderings of the nine numbers. This gives us 8C9 * 9! = 302,400.

Therefore, the probability that the gambler wins the jackpot is:

220 / (302,400 * 8) ≈ 0.0000092

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

In one complete rotation the wheel rotates 360°

Assuming the seats are equally spaced around the wheel then the

angle between each seat = [tex]\frac{360}{15}[/tex] = 24°

The angle measurement between each bucket is 24 degrees if the Ferris wheel has 15 seat buckets option (B) 24° is correct.

When two lines or rays converge at the same point, the measurement between them is called a "Angle."

We have:

A Ferris wheel has 15 seat buckets.

The total angle of the wheel is 360 degrees, which is a complete revolution of the wheel.

The angle measurement between each bucket is:

= 360/15

= 24 degree

Thus, the angle measurement between each bucket is 24 degrees if the Ferris wheel has 15 seat buckets option (B) 24° is correct.
