Identify the surface area of the composite figure. HELP PLEASE!!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of EA is the difference between AD (6) and ED (5), so is ...

  6 - 5 = 1

That is, the distance ED is 5 times the distance EA.

The two triangles are similar, so the distance BC will be 5 times the distance BA:

  BC = 5·AB

  BC = 5·2 = 10 . . . . . substitute for length AB

  x +4 = 10 . . . . . . . . . substitute for length BC

  x = 10 -4 = 6 . . . . . . subtract 4

We already know BC = 10. Of course AC = AB + BC = 2+10 = 12.

The lengths of interest are x=6, BC=10, AC=12.

A destructive earthquake happens once per year.

The exponential equation would be f(x) = 1-e^-x

The probability of going 3 months out of a year would be

P(X≥3/12)  ( divide 3 months by 12 months per year).

Now x equals 3/12

Now you have

P = 1-(1-e^-3/12)

= e^-1/4

= 0.7788

The probability that at least 3 months elapse would be 0.7788

(Round answer as needed).

The probability that at least 3 months elapse before the first earthquake of destructive magnitude occurs is; 0.7788

We are told that a destructive earthquake happens once per year.

Thus, the exponential equation in this scenario is;

f(x) = 1 - e⁻ˣ

Thus, the probability that at least 3 months elapse before the first earthquake of destructive magnitude occurs is given as;

P(X ≥ ³/₁₂)  since 12 months make a year

This will be;

P(X ≥ ³/₁₂) = 1 - (1 - e^(⁻³/₁₂))

P(X ≥ ³/₁₂) = e^-1/4

P(X ≥ ³/₁₂)= 0.7788

In conclusion, the probability that at least 3 months elapse would be 0.7788

For a rectangular prism whose side lengths are [tex]a,\:b\:and\:c[/tex] the internal diagonal can be calculated as:

[tex]d=\sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}+c^{2}}[/tex]

So here, we know that:

[tex]a=l=18 \\ \\ b=w=10 \\ \\ c=h=2[/tex]

So:

[tex]d=\sqrt{l^{2}+w^{2}+h^{2}} \\ \\ d=\sqrt{18^{2}+10^{2}+2^{2}} \\ \\ d=\sqrt{324+100+4} \\ \\ d=\sqrt{428} \\ \\ \boxed{d=2\sqrt{107}}[/tex]

Answer : The value of diagonal of the rectangular solid is, 20.69 unit.

Step-by-step explanation :

First we have to calculate the side AC.

Using Pythagoras theorem in ΔABC :

[tex](Hypotenuse)^2=(Perpendicular)^2+(Base)^2[/tex]

[tex](AC)^2=(AB)^2+(BC)^2[/tex]

Given:

Side AB = l = 18

Side BC = w =  10

Now put all the values in the above expression, we get the value of side AC.

[tex](AC)^2=(18)^2+(10)^2[/tex]

[tex]AC=\sqrt{(18)^2+(10)^2}[/tex]

[tex]AC=\sqrt{324+100}[/tex]

[tex]AC=\sqrt{424}[/tex]

Now we have to calculate the side AD (diagonal).

Using Pythagoras theorem in ΔACD :

[tex](Hypotenuse)^2=(Perpendicular)^2+(Base)^2[/tex]

[tex](AD)^2=(AC)^2+(CD)^2[/tex]

Given:

Side AC = [tex]\sqrt{424}[/tex]

Side CD = h =  2

Now put all the values in the above expression, we get the value of side AD.

[tex](AD)^2=(\sqrt{424})^2+(2)^2[/tex]

[tex]AD=\sqrt{(\sqrt{424})^2+(2)^2}[/tex]

[tex]AD=\sqrt{424+4}[/tex]

[tex]AD=\sqrt{428}[/tex]

[tex]AD=20.69[/tex]

Thus, the value of diagonal of the rectangular solid is, 20.69 unit.

2:6 so simplify it 1:3. This means the scale ratio is 1:3 for the figures. To find w, sub in the 3 from the smaller figure to the ratio so 3×3=9, 3:9 w=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

we know that

If a ordered pair satisfy a function, then the function pass through the ordered pair

Verify each function with the points (1,4), (2,9) and (3,16)

case a) we have

[tex]y=(x+1)^{2}[/tex]

Part 4) we know that

The y-intercept of the graph is (0,4)

The x-intercept of the graph is (-2,0)

therefore

the function is [tex]y=2x+4[/tex]

because

For x=0 -----> y=2(0)+4 -----> y=4

For y=0 ----> 0=2x+4 --------> x=-2

Part 5) we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

substitute the values

[tex]y-2=4(x+3)[/tex]

Convert to slope intercept form

[tex]y=4x+12+2[/tex]

[tex]y=4x+14[/tex]

Part 7) we know that

If two lines are parallel, then their slopes are the same

The equation of the given line is [tex]y=4x-2[/tex]

so

The slope of the given line is [tex]m=4[/tex]

therefore

The line [tex]y=4x+5[/tex] is parallel to the given line

The equation expressing the height as a function of elapsed time for the provided Ferris wheel scenario is: h = 35 cos 2π (t - 30) / 60 + 36. This assumes the highest point is reached halfway through the rotation and uses a cosine function to map the cycle.

The subject of this question is mathematics, specifically it's about trigonometric functions and their applications to real world scenarios. The question is seeking for an equation that can express the height of a point on a Ferris wheel as a function of elapsed time.

Here's the solution: The highest height will be the radius of the Ferris wheel (35m) plus the height of the wheel's center above the ground (36m), which is a total of 71m. This height will be reached halfway through the rotation period of the wheel (30s). So, as the function of time, height can be represented by a cosine function shifted to the right by 30s with a period of 60s. Therefore, the equation to represent this scenario correctly is:

In this equation, 'h' stands for height, 't' represents time, 'cos' is the cosine function, 'π' is pi, and '35', '60', '30', and '36' are specific constants representing the radius of the Ferris wheel, the period of rotation, the time shift, and the wheel's center height respectively.

Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that (x-3) is a factor of  P(x)=x^3-7x^2+15x-9. If we divide the P(x) by (x-3) we will get a second grade polynomial, which is easier to factorize.

Dividing x^3-7x^2+15x-9 by (x-3), the answer is: x^2 - 4x + 3 with a remainder of zero.

Now, to factorize x^2-4x+3 we just need to find two numbers that equal -4 when added and 3 when multiplied. These two numbers are -1 and -3.

So the complete factorization of P(x) is: (x-3)(x-1)(x-3)

Answer:

  D. a constant function divided by the sum of a constant function and an exponential function

Step-by-step explanation:

It's all about the meaning of the math symbols used to create the function. The exponential function is called that because the variable (t) is in the exponent of the expression.

The "numerator" is the part of the expression above the "divided by" line. The "denominator" is the part below that line. When describing a fraction like this, we say, "<the numerator> divided by <the denominator>."

The numerator is a number with no math symbols or variables: it is a constant. The same is true of the left term of the denominator.

The plus sign between the denominator terms indicate these terms are added together. The result of that addition is called a "sum." The terms either side of the plus symbol are those that the symbol is indicating the sum of.

So, we can describe the expression as ...

  a constant function divided by the sum of a constant function and an exponential function

The logistic equation is a model of population growth, correctly described as a constant function divided by the sum of a constant function and an exponential function. This matches option D from the choices provided.

The logistic equation is a model of population growth where the growth rate decreases as the population approaches its carrying capacity. The equation structure is generally given as a constant function divided by the sum of a constant function and an exponential function. Thus, the correct description from the options provided would be D. A constant function divided by the sum of a constant function and an exponential function.

As an example, the basic form of a logistic function is P(t) = c / (1 + ae-bt). Here c is the constant function representing the maximum achievable population and ae-bt is an exponential function that models the population growth over time 't'.

1) Write the model for the volume and base area of the rectangular sotorage container:

       base width, w = x

       base length, l = 2x

        B = (2x) (x) = 2x²

        height = h

        V = 2x² h = 10 ⇒ h = 10 / (2x²)

2) Total area, A

        S₁ = (x) . (h) = (x) . 10 / (2x²) = 10 / (2x) = 5 / x

        S₂ = S₁ = 5 / x

        S₃ = (2x) . (h) = (2x) . 10 / (2x²) = 10 / x

        S₄ = S₃ = 10 / x

3) Cost

        $ 10 (2x²) = 20x²

$6 (S₁ + S₂ + S₃ + S₄) = 6 (5/x + 5/x + 10/x + 10/x ) = 6 ( 30/x) = 180/x

4) Cheapest container

Minimum cost ⇒ find the minimum of the function 20x² + 180 / x, which formally is done by derivating the function and making the derivative equal to zero.

Solve to find the value of x that makes the first derivative equal to zero:

Replace x = 1.65 in the equations of costs to find the minimum cost:

That is the final answer, already rounded to the nearest cent: $163.54

The question is about the optimization of the costs for constructing a rectangular container with a specific volume of 10 m^3.  This is done by creating equations for volume and cost, and then optimizing the cost using calculus.

The subject of this question is Optimization in Calculus. Here, we trying to minimize the cost of a rectangular storage container with given constraints. First, we need to setup equations for the volume, V = length x width x height and cost, as given. Since the volume of the box is fixed at 10 m3 and given that the length is twice the width we have:

We solve for h in terms of w from the volume equation and substitute it in the cost, we can then take the derivative of the cost equation and solve it to get the width. Lastly, we plug the width value in the cost equation to get the minimal cost.

When both the radius and slant height of a right cone are multiplied by 1/4, the effect on the surface area is that it is multiplied by 1/16.

In the case of a right cone, the total surface area is given by the formula πr(r + l), where r is the radius and l is the slant height. If both the radius and slant height are multiplied by 1/4, then the new surface area becomes π(1/4r)((1/4r)+(1/4l)) = π(1/16)r(r+l). This tells us our new surface area is 1/16 of the original surface area.

Therefore, the correct effect on the surface area when both the radius and slant height of a right cone are multiplied by 1/4 is that the surface area is multiplied by 1/16.

Notice we have 4 tens on top and 3 on bottom, so we can eliminate the bottom 3 altogether and leave just one on top.  And we have 2 fives on the top and 3 on bottom, so we can eliminate the 2 on the top and leave one on the bottom.  Now that looks like this:

[tex](\frac{10}{5})^3[/tex]

10 divided by 5 is 2, and 2 cubed is 8

Final answer:

To find the value of the expression ((10⁴)(5²)/(10³)(5³))³, we simplify the powers of 10 and 5 and then raise the result to the power of 3, obtaining the final answer of 8.

Explanation:

To solve the expression ((10⁴)(5²)/(10³)(5³))³, we start by simplifying inside the parentheses. We use the properties of exponents to divide the powers of tens and fives separately:

So the inside of the parentheses simplifies to (10 * 1/5) which is 2. Then, we raise 2 to the power of 3 as indicated by the expression:

(2)^3 = 2*2*2 = 8

Therefore, the value of the expression ((10⁴)(5²)/(10³)(5³))³ is 8.

ANSWER

[tex]x ^{2} = - 4(y - 1).[/tex]

EXPLANATION

Since the parabola has the (0, 0) and the directrix at y=2.

The equation is of the form

[tex] {(x - h)}^{2} = - 4p(y - k)[/tex]

where (h,k) is the vertex.

The vertex is half way between the directrix and the focus.

The vertex will be at (0,1)

and is the distance from the vertex to the focus which is 1.

[tex]{(x - 0)}^{2} = - 4(1)(y - 1)[/tex]

[tex]x ^{2} = - 4(y - 1)[/tex]

Answer:

x=18

Step-by-step explanation:

The two triangles are similar. The ratio of the sides are the same.

20/20=40/(40+x)

Cross multiply and solve. Hint: the easiest way to solve is to simplify, then solve.
