What Did She Do Wrong ?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

She wrongly added the equations

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]-3x + y = 8[/tex]

[tex]-3x + y = -4[/tex]

Required

Her mistake

The mistake is when she added the equations.

When both equations are added, the result is:

[tex]-3x -3x + y+y=8-4[/tex]

[tex]-6x +2y=4[/tex]

and not

[tex]2y = 4[/tex]

The suggestion to avoid such mistake is for the student to check the appropriate signs of each term before adding/subtracting.

Find the answer to b and check if a is correct and explain plsss

Answers

Answer:

a. 105.84 cm²

b. 136 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The prism is a cube

Surface area of the cube = 6a²

a = 4.2 cm

Plug in the value

Surface area = 6*4.2²

Surface area = 105.84 cm²

b. The prism is a triangular prism

Surface area of triangular prism = bh + L(s1 + s2 + s3)

b = 6 ft

h = 4 ft

L = 7 ft

s1 = 5 ft

s2 = 5 ft

s3 = 6 ft

Surface area = 6*4 + 7(5 + 5 + 6)

Surface area = 24 +7(16)

Surface area = 24 + 112

Surface area = 136 cm²

The company has only two division division eight and division be last year division a made 60% of the companies total revenue and division be made 40% of the total revenue this year division as revenue has decreased by 35% and division bees revenue has decreased by 5% which division had higher revenue this year?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  Division A

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose last year's revenue for the company was 100 units.

Last year's Division A revenue was 0.60×100 = 60. This year's revenue is 1-35% = 65% of last year's, so is ...

  60 × 0.65 = 39 . . . . units

__

Last year's Division B revenue was 0.40×100 = 40. This year's revenue is 1-5% = 95% of last year's, so is ...

  40 × 0.95 = 38 . . . . units

__

At 39 units this year, Division A still has the higher revenue than Division B at 38 units.

Answer:

bbbb,

bbbg, bbgb, bgbb, gbbb,

bbgg, bgbg, bggb, gbgb, gbbg, ggbb,

bggg, gbgg, ggbg, gggb,

gggg

Step-by-step explanation:

3 children: bbb, bbg, bgb, gbb, bgg, gbg, ggb, ggg

4 children: bbbb, bbbg, bbgb, bgbb, gbbb, bbgg, bgbg, bggb, gbgb, ggbb, bggg, gbgg, ggbg, gggb, gggg

You need to take a methodological approach;

The 2 easiest are the possibility of all boys and all girls;

Then consider 3 boys and 1 girl:

bbbg, bbgb, bgbb, gbbb

Then 2 boys and 2 girls:

bbgg, bgbg, bggb, gbgb, gbbg, ggbb

Lastly, 1 boy and 3 girls:

bggg, gbgg, ggbg, gggb

In total, there are 16 possibilities

P.S. interesting to note is that the number of possibilities here follows the pattern of Pascal's triangle:

       1

     1   1

   1  2  1

 1  3  3  1

1  4  6  4  1

The last row is relevant here;

There is 1 possibility where there are 4 boys;

There are 4 possibilities (in terms of the order of birth) where there are 3 boys and 1 girl;

There are 6 possibilities where there are 2 boys and 2 girls

There are 4 possibilities where there is 1 boy and 3 girls;

There is 1 possibility where there are 4 girls;

The pattern ∴ is 1 4 6 4 1, as the 5th row of Pascal's triangle reads;

If your talking about 3 children, it would match the 4th row of Pascal's triangle;

So, 1 possibility of 3 boys;

3 possibilities of 2 boys and 1 girl;

3 possibilities of 1 boy and 2 girls;

And 1 possibility of 3 girls;

If your talking about 10 children, it would match the 11th row of Pascal's triangle.

What is the median of 6, 7, 3, 15, 4, 4.

Answers

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the middle when the numbers are lined up from smallest to largest

3,4,4,6,7,15

There are 6 number so the middle is the  between the 3rd and 4th number

3,4,4,    6,7,15

Take the 3rd and 4th numbers and average

(4+6)/2 = 10/2 = 5

Answer:

median = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Arrange the data in ascending order :

3 , 4 , 4 , 6 , 7 , 15

Choose the middle number.

Here there are even number of data. Take the average of the middle

numbers .

4 and 6 are the middle number. average of 4 and 6 = ( 4 + 6 ) /2 = 5

Therefore , median = 5

Geometry question finding radius and area
Thank You!!

Answers

Answer:

The radius of Circle D is 8 cm.

The perimeter of ΔABC is (24 + 6√7) cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let the intersection point below D be K and let the intersection point between A and B be J.

Since segment BK, which passes through the center of the circle, is perpendicular to chord AC, BK also bisects AC. Hence, AK = CK.

Connect points A and D to create radius AD. Note that BD is also a radius. Hence, AD = BD.

For ΔABK, by the Pythagorean Theorem:

[tex]AB^2=(BD+1)^2+AK^2[/tex]

Since AB = 12:

[tex]144=(BD+1)^2+AK^2[/tex]

For ΔADK, by the Pythagorean Theorem:

[tex]AD^2=1^2+AK^2[/tex]

Since AD = BD:

[tex]BD^2=1+AK^2[/tex]

Subtract the second equation into the first:

[tex]144-(BD^2)=(BD+1)^2+AK^2-(1+AK^2)[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]144-BD^2=BD^2+2BD+1-1[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]2BD^2+2BD-144=0[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]BD^2+BD-72=0[/tex]

Factor:

[tex](BD+9)(BD-8)=0[/tex]

By the Zero Product Property:

[tex]BD=-9\text{ or } BD=8[/tex]

Since the radius must be positive, the radius is 8 cm.

Since we already know AB and BC, we need to find AC to find the perimeter.

Note that AC = AK + CK = 2AK.

From the second equation:

[tex]BD^2=1+AK^2[/tex]

Thus:

[tex]AK=\sqrt{BD^2-1}=\sqrt{(8)^2-1}=\sqrt{63}=3\sqrt{7}[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]AC=2(AK)=2(3\sqrt7)=6\sqrt7[/tex]

Therefore, the perimeter of ΔABC is:

[tex]P=(12)+(12)+(6\sqrt7)=24+6\sqrt7\text{ cm}[/tex]

The graph of which function has an amplitude of 3 and a right phase shift of π/4?

A: y= 3sin2(x- π/4)

B: y = 3 + sin2(x- π/4)

C:y = 3 + sin2(x+ π/4)

D:y = 3sin2(x+π/4)​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]D.\ y = 3\sin(2(x + \frac{\pi}{4}))[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]A = 3[/tex] --- Amplitude

[tex]C = \frac{\pi}{4}[/tex] --- Right phase shift

Required

Identify the function

A sinusoidal function is defined as:

[tex]y = A\sin(B(x + C)) + D[/tex]

Substitute values for A and C

[tex]y = 3\sin(B(x + \frac{\pi}{4})) + D[/tex]

By comparison, only option (D) has the above format where

[tex]y = 3\sin(2(x + \frac{\pi}{4}))[/tex]

Hence (D) is correct

Three squares are joined below at their vertices to form a right triangle. Find X, the side
length of the square marked in the diagram.

12 feet

144 feet

48 feet

17.5 feet

Answers

Answer:

12 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

we know the areas of the 2 top squares.

the area of a square is simply the square of its side length.

=>

81 ft² means side length is 9 ft.

225 ft² means side length is 15 ft.

these are also 2 of the sides of the right triangle.

the third side we get by using Pythagoras :

c² = a² + b²

with c being the side opposite of the 90 degree angle.

so,

225 = 81 + x²

as x is also the third side of the triangle.

=> 144 = x²

x = 12 ft

h(-2) = 11/(-8)

h(-3) - h(-2) = -(5/8)

Step-by-step explanation:

h(x) = (2x^2-x+1) / (3x-2)

h(2) = (2*2^2 - 2 + 1) / (3*2 - 2)

       = (8 - 2 + 1) / (6 - 2)

       = 7/4

h(-3) = {2*(-3)^2 - (-3) + 1} / {3*(-3) - 2}

        = (18 + 3 + 1) / (-9 - 2)

        = 22/(-11)

        = -2

h(-2) = {2*(-2)^2 - (-2) + 1} / {3*(-2) - 2}

        = (8 + 2 + 1) / (-6 - 2)

        = 11/(-8)

h(-3) - h(-2) = (-2) - {11/(-8)}

Answer:

A = $3,198.17

A = P + I where

P (principal) = $1,600.00

I (interest) = $1,598.17

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert R as a percent to r as a decimal

r = R/100

r = 7.72/100

r = 0.0772 rate per year,

Then solve the equation for A

A = P(1 + r/n)nt

A = 1,600.00(1 + 0.0772/12)(12)(9)

A = 1,600.00(1 + 0.006433333)(108)

A = $3,198.17

Summary:

The total amount accrued, principal plus interest, with compound interest on a principal of $1,600.00 at a rate of 7.72% per year compounded 12 times per year over 9 years is $3,198.17.
