Answer 2

The [tex]a_{1} =\frac{d}{2}[/tex]  and [tex]r=\frac{1 }{2 }[/tex] are for the infinite Geometric sequence.

What is geometric sequence  ?

Geometric sequence a sequence of non-zero numbers where each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous one by a fixed, non-zero number called the common ratio.

i.e. [tex]a+ar+ar^2+ar^3+......[/tex]

Here, [tex]a=[/tex] First term and [tex]r=[/tex] common ratio

Next term formula, [tex]a_{n} =a_{1}\ *\ r^{n-1}[/tex]

We have,

[tex]d=[/tex] distance to her destination,

Now,

According to the question;

Zeno has to travel half that distance i.e. [tex]\frac{d}{2}[/tex],

Then half of half of distance i.e. [tex]\frac{d}{4}[/tex],

Then half of [tex]\frac{d}{4}[/tex] distance i.e. [tex]\frac{d}{8}[/tex]  and so on.

So,

Here, we have,

[tex]\frac{d}{2},\frac{d}{4},\frac{d}{8}, .........[/tex]

So,

We have Geometric Sequence,

Here,

[tex]a_{1} =\frac{d}{2}[/tex] and

Now,

[tex]r=[/tex] common ratio,

[tex]r=\frac{a_{2} }{a_{1} }[/tex]

[tex]r=\frac{\frac{d}{4} }{\frac{d}{2} }[/tex]

We get,

[tex]r=\frac{1 }{2 }[/tex]

So, These are [tex]a_{1} =\frac{d}{2}[/tex]  and [tex]r=\frac{1 }{2 }[/tex] of the Geometric sequence.

Hence, we can say that he [tex]a_{1} =\frac{d}{2}[/tex]  and [tex]r=\frac{1 }{2 }[/tex] are for the infinite Geometric sequence.

The graph of g(x) is obtained by reflecting the graph of f(x)=4|x| over the x-axis.

Which equation describes g(x)?

 

g(x)=|x+4|g(x)=|x|−4g(x)=|x−4|g(x)=−4|x|

Answers

I believe the answer is g(x) = -4|x| , because the negative changes the direction of the slope.

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

[tex]f(x)=4|x|[/tex]

It is given that the graph of g(x) is obtained by reflecting the graph of f(x)=4|x| over the x-axis.

If a figure reflected across x-axis, then the rule of reflection is

[tex](x,y)\rightarrow (x,-y)[/tex]

Using the above rule, if the given function reflected across x-axis, then g(x)=-f(x).

[tex]g(x)=-(4|x|)[/tex]

[tex]g(x)=-4|x|[/tex]

The equation g(x)=-4|x| describes g(x).

Therefore, the correct option is D.

The function h(t) = –16t2 + 96t + 6 represents an object projected into the air from a cannon. The maximum height reached by the object is 150 feet.

If you've started pre-calculus, then you know that the derivative of  h(t)

The derivative is            h'(t) = -32 t  +  96 .

At the maximum ...        h'(t) = 0

                                       32 t = 96 sec

                                           t  =  3 sec .

In that case, the question GIVES you the maximum height.
Just write it in place of  h(t), then solve the quadratic equation
and find out what  't'  must be at that height.

                                       150 ft = -16 t²  +  96  t  +  6 

Subtract 150ft from each side:    -16t²  +  96t  -  144  =  0 .

Before you attack that, you can divide each side by  -16,
making it a lot easier to handle:

                                                         t²  -  6t  +  9  =  0

Answer: 
100 feet by 250 feet or 25,000 sq. feet

Explanation: 
Okie-dokie - here we go:
So, think about it, and maybe sketch this out as you are going. You have a barn, so make a little square on a paper with a big x on it. The top side is the north facing wall that you don't need any fence along. The side that will be on the left is the side that will be half the cost since your neighbor is splitting it with you. So lets think about the other two sides first:

Keep in mind that the barn wall will not grow with the size of the area you are making, so the "vertical" sides on the left and right will get longer but the "horizontal" fence at the top of the area will always be as wide as the barn. This isn't very helpful in finding the area or even the perimeter, but is helpful to keep in mind visually. 

You are the farmer. You have $8,000 , and you are a stickler, so no more than that. You can go under by a bit, but no more than that limit. So see how many linear feet of fence you can buy at $16 per foot. 
8000 ÷ 16 = 500. You can get 500 feet out of this amount of money. But you can get more on the fence you are sharing with your neighbor, since it is half the price. Don't think about that for now. 


Let's set a width for the barn. I'm going to say the barn is 100 feet wide, so the top part of the fence will be 100 feet long. That is 400 feet left to build. If you were paying full price for both sides, that would be 200 feet on each side. However, you have a discount on the left fence, so you can stretch each side out another 1/2 the distance because he is splitting the cost of that fence with you. In other words: 
two 200 foot sides = $6400 at full price 
one 200 foot side = $3200
Find how much the neighbor is paying for: 
3200 ÷ 2 = 1600. 
So you only paying for 1 and a half sides, or:
1600 + 3200 = $4800 for 300 feet. 
You now have an extra 1600 to spend, which is another 100 feet. Split this between your two sides, so now each side is 250 feet long. 
But your neighbor is paying for half of that 50 feet you just added, so:
50 • 16 = $800 
So he pays for $400, giving you another $400 to buy fence with. 
If you understand what is happening, I'm just going to keep going mathematically without explanations:
$400 ÷ $16 = 25 feet
25 feet ÷ 2 = 12.5 feet  (250 + 12.5 = 262.5 feet)
12.5 • $16 = $200 ÷ 2 = $100
$100 ÷ $16 = 6.25 feet  
6.25 ÷ 2 = 3.125  (262.5 + 3.125 = 265.625 feet) 
3.125 • $16 = $50 ÷ 2 = $25
$25 ÷ $16 = 1.5625 feet
1.5625 ÷ 2 = .78125 (265.625 + .78125 = 266.40625 feet) 
And so on, this could keep going until you run out of money, but you'd really be milking it. Plus, let's say that you can only buy full linear feet, and not fractions, then you would stop at 250 feet per side. Which is: 
100 feet + 250 feet + (250 feet – 125 feet) = 475 feet 
475 feet • $16 = $7600 Under the limit! But you do have $400, which you could keep adding to your sides, or maybe your width is longer. Either way, find the area of 100 feet by 250 feet: 
A = l • w
A = 250 • 100 = 25,000 sq. feet
Length parallel to north wall of barn = 250 feet. Width parallel to shared western border = 166 2/3 feet. Assumptions are that the barn is a long as needed and that the property line shared with the neighbor is also as long as needed. With that in mind, let's create some equations. L = Length of plot. This will be parallel to the north wall of the barn. W = Width of plot. This will be parallel to the shared border. For each foot of length, the cost will be $16 per foot due to the fencing cost on the north being full price, plus the free length on the south due to the northern wall of the barn. For each foot of width, the cost will be $24 per foot due to the full cost of the eastern side plus the half cost on the western side. Since the maximum price is $8000, let's express L as a function of W, giving. L = (8000 - 24W)/16 The expression for area is A = W * L Substituting the expression for L into the area expression gives. A = W * (8000 - 24W)/16 A = (8000W - 24W^2)/16 A = 500W - 1.5W^2 Since you're looking for the maximum area, that will happen when the first derivative has a value of 0. So A = 500W - 1.5W^2 A' = 500 - 3W 0 = 500 - 3W 3W = 500 W = 166 2/3 So the width should be 166 feet, 8 inches. And using the equation for the length, the length will be L = (8000 - 24W)/16 L = (8000 - 24* (166 2/3))/16 L = (8000 - 4000)/16 L = 4000/16 L = 250

Final answer:

A unit test for the function addInventory() can be written in JavaScript using Jest. The test checks that the quantity of red sweaters increases correctly after calling addInventory(). If the test fails, an error message will be shown.

Explanation:

Based on the information given, you can create a unit test in many programming languages. Here we are going to illustrate with JavaScript and use the Jest testing framework.

Firstly, let's name the unit test file as redSweater.test.js. In this file, we call the addInventory() of the redSweater object with sweaterShipment as parameter.  Note that addInventory() is a method that increases the quantity of red sweaters in inventory by a certain amount provided by sweaterShipment.

Here is a sample unit test for your needs:

const redSweater = require('./redSweater'); // path to your redSweater.js file

test('addInventory() unit test', () => {

let initialQty = 10;

redSweater.qty = initialQty;

let shipmentQty = 50;

redSweater.addInventory(shipmentQty);

expect(redSweater.qty).toBe(initialQty + shipmentQty);

});

This script tests that the quantity of red sweaters increases correctly after calling the addInventory() method. If the quantity is not correct after the method call, the test will fail and show an error message.

Salespeople make an average of $1,000 per week. There are nine salespeople. What would the ninth person need to earn for the mean to be $1,000 if the other eight salespeople earned $550, $600, $600, $800, $950, $950, $1,000, and $1,100?

Answers

all numbers equal 6550
(6550+x)/9=1000
6550+x=9000
x=2450
Final answer:

To get an average earnings of $1,000 for all nine salespeople, the ninth salesperson needs to earn $2,450.

Explanation:

The subject of this question is mathematics, specifically statistics, and it involves the concept of 'mean' or 'average'. To find out what the ninth person needs to earn to keep the average earn of $1,000, we first need to calculate the total earnings of all nine people. Since the average earnings of a salesperson is $1,000, we multiply $1,000 by 9, which gives us $9,000. Then we need to subtract the sum of the earnings of the first eight salespeople from $9,000 to find out the earnings of the ninth person.  

Here is the breakdown with the given figures:

The sum of the earnings of the first eight salespeople is: $550 + $600 + $600 + $800 + $950 + $950 + $1,000 + $1,100 = $6,550Subtract this from the total ($9,000): $9,000 - $6,550 = $2,450

So, the ninth person would need to earn $2,450 for the average earnings to remain at $1,000.

A 90% confidence interval for a population mean is (65, 77). the population distribution is approximately normal and the population standard deviation is unknown. this confidence interval is based on a simple random sample of 25 observations. calculate the sample mean, the margin of error, and the sample standard deviation.

Answers

Part A:

The sample mean is at the midpoint of the lower and the upper values of the confidence interval.

Thus, the sample mean is given by:

(77 + 65) / 2 = 71

Therefore, the sample mean is 71.



Part 2:

The margin of error is the distance between the upper and the lower confidence interval values from the sample mean.

Thus, margin of error is given by 77 - 71 = 71 - 65 = 6.

Therefore, margin of error is 6.



Part 3:

The margin of error is given by

[tex]ME= t_{\alpha/2}\left(\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}\right) [/tex]

where [tex]t_{\alpha/2}[/tex] is the value of the t-distribution given the degree of freedom; s is the sample standard deviation and n is the sample size.

Since the sample size is 25, the degree of freedom is 25 - 1 = 24.
[tex] \frac{\alpha}{2} = \frac{(1-0.9)}{2} = \frac{0.1}{2} =0.05[/tex]

From the t-distrbution table, we have:

[tex]t_{\alpha/2}=1.710882[/tex]

Thus, margin of error is given by:

[tex]6=1.710882\left( \frac{s}{\sqrt{25}} \right) \\ \\ \Rightarrow\left( \frac{s}{\sqrt{25}} \right)= \frac{6}{1.710882} \\ \\ \Rightarrow\frac{s}{5}=3.506963 \\ \\ \Rightarrow s=5(3.506963)=\bold{17.53}[/tex]
Final answer:

The sample mean for the given 90% confidence interval (65, 77) is 71. The margin of error is 6. The sample standard deviation cannot be specifically calculated without the t-value, but presuming a common t-value for such datasets (1.96), it approximates to 3.072.

Explanation:

The subject at hand pertains to confidence intervals and basic statistics calculations. Given a 90% confidence interval of (65, 77), we can find the sample mean by adding the two limits and dividing by 2. So (65 + 77) / 2 equals 71.

The margin of error for the confidence interval is calculated by subtracting the sample mean from the upper limit. That gives us 77 - 71 equals 6.

Unfortunately, without knowing the value of the t-statistic, we can't calculate the sample standard deviation, as it's calculated via the formula: standard deviation = margin of error / (t-value/sqrt(sample size)). But, usually, for a sample size of 25 observations and a 90% confidence level, the t-value is about 1.96. Using that assumed t-value, the standard deviation calculation gives us 6/(1.96/sqrt(25)) equals approximately 3.072.

Final answer:

To find the area of the surface above the given rectangle, we need to determine the intersection of the cylinder with the plane of the rectangle. The surface area above the rectangle is equal to the area of the rectangle multiplied by the range of the z-coordinate.

Explanation:

To find the area of the surface that lies above the given rectangle, we need to determine the intersection of the cylinder with the plane of the rectangle. The equation of the cylinder is y^2+z^2=9, and the vertices of the rectangle are (0,0), (4,0), (0,2), and (4,2). At the x=0 and x=4 cross sections, we can see that the y-coordinate ranges from 0 to 2 and the z-coordinate ranges from -3 to 3. Therefore, the surface area above the rectangle is equal to the area of the rectangle multiplied by the range of the z-coordinate.

The area of the rectangle is (4-0)(2-0) = 8 square units. The range of the z-coordinate is -3 to 3, so the surface area above the rectangle is 8 * (3 - (-3)) = 48 square units.

Square root is a 2nd root which is even so there can be negative solutions.

Sqrt(0.0625) = 0.25 or -0.25
Final answer:

The real square roots of 0.0625 are -0.25 and 0.25, as both of these numbers squared equal 0.0625.

Explanation:

The student has asked to find all the real square roots of 0.0625. The square root of a number is a value that, when multiplied by itself, gives the original number. In this case, we're looking for a number which, when squared, equals 0.0625.

To find this, we can recognize that the square root of 0.0625 could be thought of in fraction form as the square root of 625/10000, which simplifies to the square root of 625 divided by the square root of 10000. This reduces to 25/100 because 625 is a perfect square (25 * 25) and 10000 is also a perfect square (100 * 100). Therefore, the principal square root of 0.0625 is 0.25.

However, since every positive number has two square roots, one positive and one negative, and because the square of both -0.25 and 0.25 gives 0.0625, we conclude that the real square roots of 0.0625 are -0.25 and 0.25.

What is irrational number?

Real numbers that can not be written in the form of fraction is called irrational number. Real number that can be written in form of fraction is called rational number.

In option (1)  π is an irrational number as it contains infinite decimals when we divide 22 by 7

In option (2)  1.33 is a fixed number so it can be written in fractions so this number is rational number

In option (3) √196, it is square root of 14 so it can be written in fraction so it is rational number.

In option (4) √20  is an irrational number as on finding its square root there will be infinite decimals so it cannot be written in form of fraction

Therefore π and √20 are irrational number.  Therefore option A, D are correct option

Find three distinct fractions between -7/8 and -4/5

Answers

first off,  you'd want to put both fractions with the same denominator, and we simply do so by multiplying each other by the other's denominator.

[tex]\bf -\cfrac{7\cdot 5}{8\cdot 5}\implies -\cfrac{35}{40}\qquad \qquad\qquad \qquad -\cfrac{4\cdot 8}{5\cdot 8}\implies -\cfrac{32}{40} \\\\\\ \textit{since there's no enough room for three fractions there,}\\\\ \textit{let's multiply each by 2, to make room for three fractions}[/tex]

Given: 2x + 11 = 15 Prove: x = 2 Statements Reason 1. 2x + 11 = 15 1. Given 2. 2x = 4 2. 3. x = 2 3. Division Property of Equalit

Answers

2x + 11 = 15 ⇒  Given

2x + 11 - 11 = 15 - 11 ⇒ Subtracting 11 from both sides, this is the Property of Equality

2x = 4 ⇒ Carried on from the previous line of working out

2x ÷ 2 = 4 ÷ 2 ⇒ Divide both sides by 2, this is the property of division equality

x = 2 ⇒ Proved as required

Of all the rectangles with a perimeter of 168 feet, find the dimension of the one with the largest area

Answers

The rectangle with the largest area with a given perimeter will be a square - so the sides will be equal. So we need to find length of side, L, such that 4*L=168. L = 168/4 L=42. So the dimensions of the rectangle that maximizes the area with a perimiter of 168 feet are: 42 feet by 24 feet.

Final answer:

The largest area for a rectangle with a fixed perimeter of 168 feet is achieved by a square, and the dimensions of that square are 42 feet by 42 feet.

Explanation:

To find the dimensions of a rectangle with the largest area given a fixed perimeter, we need to understand that the rectangle with the largest area for a given perimeter is a square.

In this problem, the perimeter is 168 feet, which can be expressed by the formula 2l + 2w = 168, where l is the length and w is the width of the rectangle. Knowing that a square has all four sides equal, we simply divide the perimeter by 4 to get the side length, which gives us l = w = 168/4 = 42 feet.

Therefore, the dimensions of the rectangle with the largest area, which in this case is a square, are 42 feet by 42 feet.

Jessie has a piece of wood that is 8 feet long. He needs to cut pieces that are 7/8 of a foot long. How many pieces will he be able to make?

Answers

8 / (7/8) =
8 * 8/7 =
64/7 =
9.14.....so he can cut 9 full pieces

Answer:

9 full pieces.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this we have to divide the total feets of wood that Jessie has, by the size of the pieces that Jessie needs:

[tex]\frac{8}{\frac{7}{8} }\\\frac{\frac{8}{1} }{\frac{7}{8} }\\\frac{8*8}{7*1}\\\frac{64}{7} =9.14[/tex]

Since Jessie will be able to cut 9.14 pieces of wood, he will have only 9 full pieces, so the total amount of pieces that he would be able to cut will be 9.

A bag contains 8 red marbles, 3 blue marbles, and 1 green marble. Find P(not blue)


a.9
b.4/3
c 1/4
d. 3/4

Answers

The answer is D because P(not blue) is 9/12. Once it is simplified you get 3/4

To find the probability of not drawing a blue marble from the bag, one must divide the number of non-blue marbles by the total number of marbles, resulting in a probability of 3/4

The question asks to find the probability of not drawing a blue marble from a bag that contains 8 red marbles, 3 blue marbles, and 1 green marble. The total number of marbles is 8 + 3 + 1 = 12. The probability of not drawing a blue marble (P(not blue)) is the number of marbles that are not blue divided by the total number of marbles. This is (8 red + 1 green) / 12 total marbles. Calculated, the probability is 9/12, which simplifies to 3/4
