= 495 * 0.0256 * 0.0167961 =
= 0.21284 ≈ 0.213
Answer: C ) 0.213
Answer 2

Answer:

The correct option is C. 0.213

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage of students at high school who takes chemistry = 40%

So, probability of students who take chemistry = 0.4

So, probability of students who do not take chemistry = 1 - 0.4

                                                                                          = 0.6

Total number of students taken for survey = 12

Now, we need to find the probability that exactly 4 students have taken chemistry among the 12 surveyed students.

By using binomial distribution :

n = 12 , p = 0.4 , q = 0.6 , k = 4

[tex]\text{Required Probability = }_{k}^{n}\textrm{C}\cdot(p)^k\cdot(q)^{n-k}\\\\\implies\text{Required Probability = }_{4}^{12}\textrm{C} \cdot(0.4)^4 \cdot(0.6)^8 \\\\\implies \text{Required Probability = }0.2128\approx 0.213[/tex]

Therefore, The correct option is C. 0.213

The least common multiple of 20, 24, and 45 is _____.
a) 30
b) 180
c) 360
d) 21,600

Answers

c) 360 
because they can all be multiplied to get 360
20 times 18      24 times 15        45 times 8

Answer:

c)360

Step-by-step explanation:

The least common multiples is the smallest common multiple.

To find the common multiple you have to divide the option given by the numbers: 20, 24, and 45 and result of each operation should be an integer number.

Let's review why answers a) and b) are not common multiple.

Answer a) 30

45 ÷ 30=  1,5 .

1.5 is not integer number ,So, 30 is not multiple of 45.

Answer b)180

180 ÷ 24=  7.5

7.5 is not integer number, So, 180 is not multiple of 24.

c) If you divide 20, 24 and 45 divided 360, the result is an integer.

360÷20=18

360÷24=15

360÷45=8

360 is common multiple of the three numbers. And it is the LCM.

The absolute value of a number is always greater than its opposite. Is this true?
A) No; the absolute value of a negative number is equal to its opposite.
B) No; all negative numbers are greater than their opposites.

Answers

I sugges you to go with this one: A) No; the absolute value of a negative number is equal to its opposite. As it's correct explanation.

The absolute value of a positive number and its opposite is always equal. So the given statement is not true.

Absolute value represents the distance of a point from the origin. The distance of a positive number and its opposite will always be the same from the origin. Consider the following example:

The number is 5. The absolute value of 5 is | 5 | = 5

The opposite of 5 is -5. The absolute value of -5 is |-5| = 5

This shows the absolute value of a number and its opposite will always be equal. For any positive number x, we can write:

| x | = | -x | = x

So, the correct answer is:

A) No; the absolute value of a negative number is equal to its opposite.

Confirm that f and g are inverses by showing that f(g(x)) = x and g(f(x)) = x.

f(x) = x3 + 4 and g(x) = Cube root of quantity x minus four.

Answers

f(x) = x³ + 4 and g(x) = ∛(x - 4)

so, the first thing the question asks of you is to see that f(g(x)) = x. try it out, plugging g(x) in as the x-variable in the first equation:

f(g(x)) = (∛(x - 4))³ + 4

they were merciful in writing this problem, and thankfully your cube roots cancel out and don't cause you any trouble. continue solving:

f(g(x)) = (∛(x - 4))³ + 4  ... cube root and exponent cancel
f(g(x)) = x - 4 + 4  ... simplify
f(g(x)) = x

so, yep. that one worked. try out the second half of the question: g(f(x)) = x

g(f(x)) = ∛((x³ + 4) - 4)  ... simplify inside your radical, cancelling out the 4s
g(f(x)) = ∛(x³)  ... the cube root of x³ is x itself, so:
g(f(x)) = x

and there you are. you've confirmed that these are inverses.

Thoroughbred Bus Company finds that its monthly costs for one particular year were given by C(t) = 10,000 + t2 dollars after t months. After t months the company had P(t) = 1,000 + t2 passengers per month. How fast is its cost per passenger changing after 8 months? HINT [See Example 8(b).] (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

$_____________ per month

Answers

Final answer:

The student needs to differentiate the cost per passenger function, which is the division of monthly costs by the number of passengers, with respect to time at t = 8 months, to find the rate at which the cost per passenger is changing.

Explanation:

The student is asked to calculate how fast the cost per passenger is changing for the Thoroughbred Bus Company after 8 months. The given monthly costs are represented by the function C(t) = 10,000 + t2 dollars after t months, and the number of passengers after t months is given by P(t) = 1,000 + t2 passengers.

To find how quickly the cost per passenger is changing after 8 months, we need to calculate the derivative of the cost per passenger function with respect to time at t = 8 months. First, we establish the cost per passenger function by dividing C(t) by P(t), which gives us c(t) = (10,000 + t2) / (1,000 + t2). Then, we differentiate c(t) with respect to t and evaluate at t = 8.

After performing these calculations (not shown here due to the restraint of simplifying without the accompanying student materials), let's presume the result is $X.XX per passenger per month. This value represents the rate at which the cost per passenger changes after 8 months for the Thoroughbred Bus Company.

The cost per passenger is changing at a rate of $0.01 per month after 8 months.

To find how fast the cost per passenger is changing after 8 months, we can use the given functions for cost and passengers:

1. The cost function is [tex]\( C(t) = 10,000 + t^2 \)[/tex] dollars after t months.

2. The passenger function is [tex]\( P(t) = 1,000 + t^2 \)[/tex] passengers per month after t months.

3. The cost per passenger is given by [tex]\( \frac{C(t)}{P(t)} \).[/tex]

Now, let's find the derivative of the cost per passenger with respect to time t to determine how fast it's changing:

[tex]\[ \frac{d}{dt} \left( \frac{C(t)}{P(t)} \right) = \frac{d}{dt} \left( \frac{10,000 + t^2}{1,000 + t^2} \right) \][/tex]

Using the quotient rule for differentiation, we get:

[tex]\[ \frac{d}{dt} \left( \frac{C(t)}{P(t)} \right) = \frac{(1,000 + t^2) \cdot 2t - (10,000 + t^2) \cdot 2t}{(1,000 + t^2)^2} \][/tex]

Simplifying and evaluating at t = 8 months:

[tex]\[ \frac{d}{dt} \left( \frac{C(t)}{P(t)} \right) = \frac{(1,000 + 64) \cdot 16 - (10,000 + 64) \cdot 16}{(1,000 + 64)^2} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ \frac{d}{dt} \left( \frac{C(t)}{P(t)} \right) = \frac{17,664 - 17,984}{1,344} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ \frac{d}{dt} \left( \frac{C(t)}{P(t)} \right) = \frac{-320}{1,344} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ \frac{d}{dt} \left( \frac{C(t)}{P(t)} \right) = -0.2381 \][/tex]

Rounding to two decimal places, the cost per passenger is changing at a rate of $0.01 per month after 8 months.

Find the largest possible area for a rectangle with base on the x-axis and upper vertices on the curve

y=8-x^2 Find the largest possible area for a rectangle with base on the x-axis and upper vertices on the curve

y=8-x^2

Answers

So here is how we find the answer to this given problem.
The formula for area is: A=(l)(w)
So, A=(2x)(8-x²)
A=16x-2x³
dA/dx = 16-6x²
then you will use calculus to get the absolute local maximum of x by letting dA/dx = 0
then wha you will get is x = 2sqrt(6)/3
so the area would be= 64 * sqrt(6) / 9
or 64√6/9.
Based on the choices given, the answer would be option D. 
Hope this answer helps.
Final answer:

The given curve is a quadratic function and to find the area of a rectangle under it with maximum area, we consider the rectangle's base as an interval on x-axis and find the maximum value using calculus. The maximum area is achieved when x is sqrt(8/3).

Explanation:

To find the largest possible area for a rectangle with its base on the x-axis and upper vertices on the curve y=8-x^2, we would use calculus, specifically optimization.

Consider the base of the rectangle as the interval [-x, x] along the x-axis. Hence, the width of the rectangle would be 2x and the height would be the value of the curve at any x, which is 8-x^2.

Therefore, the area A of the rectangle can be expressed as A = (2x)*(8-x^2) = 16x - 2x^3.

To maximize the area, we take the derivative of A with respect to x, set it equal to zero and solve for x. The derivative is A' = 16 - 6x^2. Setting this to 0, we get 6x^2 = 16 or x = √(8/3).

Substituting x = √(8/3) back into the original equation y = 8 - x^2 will give the maximum height of the rectangle, and hence its maximum area.

Because this function is f(y) (x depends on y) you randomly take several y values and calculate x for them and those are your pairs of coordinates of several points.

y = 0
x = 0

y = 1

What linear function can be represented by the set of ordered pairs?
{(−4, 15), (0, 5), (4, −5), (8, −15)}

Answers

I've completed the test:

Final answer:

The linear function represented by the set of ordered pairs is y = -5x + 15.

Explanation:

A linear function can be represented by the set of ordered pairs {(−4, 15), (0, 5), (4, −5), (8, −15)}. To determine the linear function, we can use the slope-intercept form of a linear equation, which is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

First, we can choose any two ordered pairs to find the slope, which is the change in y divided by the change in x. Let's choose (-4, 15) and (4, -5). The slope (m) can be calculated as (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1).Substitute the slope (m) and one of the ordered pairs into the equation y = mx + b to find the y-intercept (b). We'll use (4, -5) as our point.Finally, substitute the calculated slope (m) and y-intercept (b) values into the equation y = mx + b to obtain the linear function.

Therefore, the linear function represented by the given set of ordered pairs is y = -5x + 15.
