The sum of four consecutive integers is -62. What is
the least of the four integers?

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  -17

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the smallest of the integers. Then their sum is ...

  x +(x+1) +(x+2) +(x+3) = -62

  4x +6 = -62 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms

  4x = -68 . . . . . . . . . .subtract 6

  x = -17 . . . . . . . divide by 4

The least of the four is -17.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is (b).

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution of the given polynomial is :

[tex](-\dfrac{1}{3},4)[/tex]

x = 1/3 and y = -4

i.e.

Sum of roots = (1/3-4) = -11/3

Product of roots = (1/3)(-4) = -4/3

The quadratic equation is as follows :

[tex]x^2+(\text{sum of roots})x+\text{Product of roots}=0[/tex]

Put all the values,

[tex]x^2+\dfrac{-11}{3}x+\dfrac{-4}{3}=0\\\\3x^2-11x-4=0[/tex]

So, the correct option is (b).

There are several vehicles in a parking lot. Some of them are motorcycles
(with 2 wheels), and some are cars (with 4 wheels). There are 10 vehicles in
the lot, and there are 32 wheels. How many vehicles of each type are in the
lot?

Answers

Answer:

There are four motorcycles and six cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m represent the number of motorcycles and c represent the number of cars.

Since there are ten vehicles in total, the sum of the number of motorcycles and the number of cars must total ten. Hence:

[tex]m+c=10[/tex]

And since each motorcycle has two wheels and each car has four wheels and there are 32 wheels in total:

[tex]2m+4c=32[/tex]

Solve the system of equations. First, we can divide the second equation by two:

[tex]m+2c=16[/tex]

From the first equation, we can subtract c from both sides:

[tex]m=10-c[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex](10-c)+2c=16[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]10+c=16[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]c=6[/tex]

There are six cars.

Using the modified equation:

[tex]m=10-c[/tex]

Solve for m:

[tex]m=10-(6)=4[/tex]

So, there are four motorcycles and six cars.

A comet travels at an average speed of 233,000 km/h.
It takes 7 days for the comet to reach Earth.
Find the distance, in km, the comet travelled.

Answers

Answer:

39,144,000 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Distance traveled = time * speed

Given speed: 233000 km/h

Given time: 7 days

It's important to note that our speed is given in per hours and out time is given in days. So in order to find how far the comet has traveled we must convert days to hours.

There are 24 hours in 1 day.

So to convert days to hours simply multiply amount of days by 24

24 * 7 = 168

So the comet has traveled for 168 hours

Now we can find distance traveled

Once again distance traveled = time * speed

Given speed is 233000 km/h

Given time is 168 hours

Distance = 168 * 233000 = 39,144,000

So the comet has traveled for a total distance of 39,144,000 km

x=ky a. if x=15 when y=14.find the value of k.. b..Find x when y=70 c...find y when x=45​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

a. x = 15 and y = 14

The equation is :

x = ky

or

[tex]k=\dfrac{x}{y}[/tex]

Put all the values,

[tex]k=\dfrac{15}{14}\\\\k=1.07[/tex]

b. Now, put y = 70 and k = 1.07.

x = 1.07×70

x = 74.9

c.

Put x = 45 and k = 1.07.

[tex]y=\dfrac{x}{k}\\\\y=\dfrac{45}{1.07}\\\\y=42.05[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.

A museum conducts a survey of its visitors in order to assess the popularity of a device which
is used to provide information on the museum exhibits. The device will be withdrawn if fewer
than 20% of all of the museum’s visitors make use of it. Of a random sample of 100 visitors,
15 chose to use the device.
i. Carry out an appropriate hypothesis test at the 5% significance level to
see if the device should be withdrawn and state your conclusions.
ii. Calculate the p-value of the test

Answers

Answer:

i:

The appropriate null hypothesis is [tex]H_0: p \geq 0.2[/tex]

The appropriate alternative hypothesis is [tex]H_1: p < 0.2[/tex]

The p-value of the test is 0.1057 > 0.05, which means that there is not sufficient evidence that fewer than 20% of the museum visitors make use of the device, and so, it should not be withdrawn.

ii:

The p-value of the test is 0.1057

Step-by-step explanation:

Question i:

The device will be withdrawn if fewer than 20% of all of the museum’s visitors make use of it.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of at least 20%, that is:

[tex]H_0: p \geq 0.2[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion is less than 20%, that is:

[tex]H_1: p < 0.2[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.2 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.2, \sigma = \sqrt{0.2*0.8} = \sqrt{0.16} = 0.4[/tex].

The device will be withdrawn if fewer than 20% of all of the museum’s visitors make use of it. Of a random sample of 100 visitors, 15 chose to use the device.

This means that [tex]n = 100, X = \frac{15}{100} = 0.15[/tex]

Test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{0.15 - 0.20}{\frac{0.4}{\sqrt{100}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -1.25[/tex]

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample proportion below 0.15, which is the p-value of z = -1.25.

Looking at the z-table, z = -1.25 has a p-value of 0.1057.

The p-value of the test is 0.1057 > 0.05, which means that there is not sufficient evidence that fewer than 20% of the museum visitors make use of the device, and so, it should not be withdrawn.

Question ii:

The p-value of the test is 0.1057

Using pythagoras theorem, you will find that AC= 12,

[tex]\sqrt{13^2-5^2}= 12[/tex]

Sin A = Opposite / Hypotenuse, in this case the opposite of A is CB which is 5ft, and then Hypotenuse of the right angled triangle is AB. which is 13ft.

So, Sin A = 5/13

Tan A= Opposite/ Adjacent,

Opposite is CB, which is 5ft, adjacent is AC, which  is 12ft.

So, Tan A= 5/12

Cos A= Adjacent/Hypotenuse,

we know adjacent is 12ft and that hypotenuse is 13ft.

So Cos A= 12/13

However Sec A is the inverse of cos A.

So, Sec A= 13/12.

A pair of shoes that normally cost $24 is 25% off. what is the selling price of the jeans?​

Answers

Answer:

The selling price of the shoe is $18

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

According to the question, the normal cost price of pair of shoes is $24 (i.e $24 is MP= marked price).

Also, there is 25% off. (i.e discount)

Now,

SP (selling price) = MP - discount% of MP

or, SP = 24 - 25% of 24

or, SP= 24 - 6

Therefore, the SP of the shoes is $18.

Hope it helps!

A person's Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measure of the amount of fat in their body. The relationship between antioxidant food consumption per day in cups and the BMI of an individual is modeled by the following line of best fit: [tex]y=-1.2x+26[/tex] . Interpret the slope and intercept of the trend line within the context of the data.

DIRTY ANSWERS REPORTED
NO LINKS ALLOWED!

Answers

Answer:

The slope of -1.2 means that for each cup of antioxidant a person consumes per day, it's BMI decreases by 1.2.

The intercept of 26 means that a person that does not consume any cup of antioxidant food a day should have an BMI around 26.

Step-by-step explanation:

Line of best fit:

[tex]y = -1.2x + 26[/tex]

Slope:

The slope is the number that multiplies x, that is, -1.2. The slope of -1.2 means that for each cup of antioxidant food a person consumes per day, it's BMI decreases by 1.2.

Intercept:

Value of y when x = 0, that is, 26. The intercept of 26 means that a person that does not consume any cup of antioxidant food a day should have an BMI around 26.

Answer:

the slope is -1.2 and the intercept is 26.

Step-by-step explanation:

our line's equation is y= -1.2x + 26

In the equation y = mx + b, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. So in this equation, look for where the numbers are placed and that it what you get.
