A rectangular city is 3 miles long and 10 miles wide. What is the distance between opposite corners of the city? The exact distance is ______ miles How far is it to the closest tenth of a mile? Answer: The distance is approximately ______ miles.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The exact distance is [tex]\sqrt{109}[/tex] miles.

The distance is approximately 10.4 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a rectangular city is 3 miles long and 10 miles wide. So,

Length = 3 miles

Width = 10 miles

We need to find the distance between opposite corners of the city. It means, we need to find the length of the diagonal of the rectangle.

Using Pythagoras theorem, the length of diagonal is

[tex]d=\sqrt{l^2+w^2}[/tex]

where, l is length and w is width.

Substitute l=3 and w=10.

[tex]d=\sqrt{(3)^2+(10)^2}[/tex]

[tex]d=\sqrt{9+100}[/tex]

[tex]d=\sqrt{109}[/tex]

The exact distance is [tex]\sqrt{109}[/tex] miles.

Now,

[tex]d=\sqrt{109}[/tex]

[tex]d=10.4403065[/tex]

[tex]d\approx 10.4[/tex]

The distance is approximately 10.4 miles.

IQ scores have a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. What percentile corresponds to an IQ score of 115? Explain the steps you took to find the percentile.

Answers

Answer:

The percentile that corresponds to an IQ score of 115 is 34.13 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the percentile that corresponds to an IQ score of 115.

To calculate this percentile, we start with making observations. From the question, we are told that the mean score is 100 while the standard deviation is 15.

Now we want to find the percentile for a score if 115. For a score of 115, we can see that the difference between this score and the mean is 15 which is exactly equal to the standard deviation.

What this means is that the score is within +1 SD of the mean.

For a score of within +1 SD of the mean, the percentile is 34.13%

A score at the mean is the 50th percentile, a score which is 1 SD above or below the mean has a percentile value of 34.13%

Please, I will like you to check the attachment to see how percentiles are valued given the number of standard deviations a particular value is from the mean.

Answer:

To solve for a, you will need to get that variable alone on one side. First you will multiply each side by variable b. This will give you the equation pb = 3a + 4. Next you subtract 4 from each side. This puts it at pb - 4 = 3a. After that you’ll divide both sides by 3 and get a alone. This gives you (pb - 4)/3 = a or, if you switch it around, a = (pb - 4)/3. This is the simplest form when solving for a in this equation.

An apple orchard has an average yield of 32 bushels of apple per acre. For each unit increase in tree density, yield decreases by 2 bushels per tree. How many trees per acre should be planted to maximize yield

Answers

An apple orchard has an average yield of 32 bushels of apples per tree if tree density is 26 trees per acre. For each unit increase in tree density, the yield decreases by 2 bushels per tree. How many trees per acre should be planted to maximize the yield?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Let assume that  26+x trees per acre  are planted

then the  yield per acre will be (26+x)(32-2x)

However;

As x = 0 (i.e. planting 26 per acre), we have;

= (26+0) (32 - 2 (0))

= 26 × 32

= 832

As x = 1 (i.e planting 19 per acre), we have:

= (26+1) (32-2(1)

= 27 × 30

= 810

As x = 2 (i.e. planting 20 per acre), we have:

= (26 +2 ) ( 32 - 2(2)

= 28 × 28

= 784

The series continues in a downward direction for the yield per acre.

Thus,  for maximum plant 19 per acre, it can achieved by method of calculus given that the differentiation of the maximum point of x = 1

Finally, due to integer solution, it is not advisable to use calculus as such other methods should be applied.

If y varies directly with x and y = -11.7 when x = -3, find the value of y when x = 7.

Answers

Answer:

y = 27.3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of y when x = 7 we must first find the relationship between them.

The statement

y varies directly with x is written as

y = kx

where k is the constant of proportionality

From the question

when y = - 11.7

x = - 3

We have

- 11.7 = -3k

Divide both sides by - 3

k = 3.9

So the formula for the variation is

y = 3.9k

When x = 7

y = 3.9(7)

y = 27.3

-3(-4x+4)=15+3x

Answers

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

● -3 (-4x+4) = 15 + 3x

Multiply -3 by (-4x+4) first

● (-3) × (-4x) + (-3)×(4) = 15 + 3x

● 12 x - 12 = 15 +3x

Add 12 to both sides

● 12x - 12 + 12 = 15 + 3x +12

● 12 x = 27 + 3x

Substract 3x from both sides

● 12x -3x = 27 + 3x - 3x

● 9x = 27

Dividr both sides by 9

● 9x/9 = 27/9

● x = 3

Given the two functions, which statement is true?

Answers

Answer:

third option

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x) then f(x) + c represents a vertical translation of f(x)

• If c > 0 then shift up by c units

• If c < 0 then shift down by c units

Given

g(x) = [tex]3^{x}[/tex] + 5 ← this represents a shift up of 5 units

Thus g(x) is the graph of f(x) translated up by 5 units

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf{Option \: 3}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) is translated up 5 units compared to f(x). In a vertical translation, when the graph is moved 5 units up, 5 is added to the function. When the graph is moved 5 units down, 5 is subtracted from the function. The graphs are shifted  in the direction of the y-axis.

A 100.0 m long polymer cable of uniform circular cross section and of diameter 0.4cm has a mass of 1885.0 gm. What is the mass density, of the polymer in kg/m3?

Answers

The answer is option b.15

Don't forget put heart ♥️

The mass density in kg/m3 will be -  15 x [tex]10^{-2}[/tex] Kg/m3.

We have a 100.0 m long polymer cable of uniform circular cross section and of diameter 0.4cm has a mass of 1885.0 gm.

We have to determine its mass density in kg/m3.

What is Mass density ?

The amount of mass per unit volume present in the body is called its mass density.

According to question, we have -

Length of polymer cable = 100.0 m

diameter of polymer cable = 0.4 cm = 0.004 m

Therefore, its radius = 0.002 m

The mass density of the wire will be -

[tex]\rho =\frac{m}{\pi r^{2} l}[/tex]

[tex]\rho[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1885}{3.14 \times0.002 \times 0.002 \times 100 }[/tex]

[tex]\rho = \frac{1885}{0.001256}[/tex] = 1500796.1 g/m3

1 Kg = 1000g

1g = 1/1000kg

1500796.1g = 1500.7 Kg = 15 x [tex]10^{-2}[/tex] Kg

Therefore, mass density = 15 x [tex]10^{-2}[/tex] Kg/m3

Hence, the mass density in kg/m3 will be -  15 x [tex]10^{-2}[/tex] Kg/m3.

A fruit company delivers its fruit in two types of boxes: large and small. A delivery of 2 large boxes and 12 small boxes has a total weight of 223 kilograms. A delivery of 5 large boxes and 3 small boxes has a total weight of 139 kilograms. How much does each type of box weigh?

Answers

Answer:

A large box weighs 18.5 kilograms and a small box weighs 15.5 kilograms

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a system of equations where l is the weight of one large box and s is the weight of one small box.

2l + 12s = 223

5l + 3s = 139

Solve by elimination by multiplying the bottom equation by -4:

2l + 12s = 223

-20l - 12s = -556

Add these together and solve for l:

-18l = -333

l = 18.5

So, a large box weighs 18.5 kilograms. Plug in 18.5 as l into one of the equations, and solve for s:

5l + 3s = 139

5(18.5) + 3s = 139

92.5 + 3s = 139

3s = 46.5

s = 15.5

A large box weighs 18.5 kilograms and a small box weighs 15.5 kilograms.

9514 1404 393

Answer:

large: 18.5 kgsmall: 15.5 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Two equations for the total weight can be written in general form as ...

  2L +12S -223 = 0

  5L +3S -139 = 0

These can be solved using the "cross multiplication method" by computing three differences:

  d1 = (2)(3) -(5)(12) = 6 -60 = -54

  d2 = (12)(-139) -(3)(-223) = -1668 +669 = -999

  d3 = (-223)(5) -(-139)(2) = -1115 +278 = -837

Then the weighs of the boxes are ...

  1/d1 = L/d2 = S/d3

  L = d2/d1 = -999/-54 = 18.5

  S = d3/d1 = -837/-54 = 15.5

The large box weighs 18.5 kg; the small box weighs 15.5 kg.

_____

Additional comment

If the coefficients are written in two rows of four numbers, with the first repeated at the end, the pattern of differences can be seen to be (ad -cb) for [a, b] in the first row and [c, d] in the second row of a pair of adjacent columns. This method of solution is fully equivalent to solution using Cramer's Rule for a system of equations represented by a matrix equation.
