As a burglar reaches for something on the mantel, accidentally knocks over a clock. It falls to the floor, breaks, and stops. The next morning, however, pol.ice aren't able to determine what time the robbery took place. Why not?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: There is no way of finding out if the clock worked before then, and if it stopped at P.m or A.m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the robber broke the clock at 3 a.m, the police would first of all not have any idea if the clock was indeed broken before the robber knocked it over, and the clock has no way of saying whether it was broken at 3 a.m. or 3 p.m, therefore it's rendered useless.

the volume of a cube is 125cm cubed. The area of a square is 64cm squared. How does the length of one edge of the cube compare to the length of one side of the square? Explain

Answers

Answer:

One edge of the cube is 5 cm, one edge of the square is 8 cm, so the edge of the cube is 3 cm shorter than the edge of the square.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the cube is found by the formula

V = s³,

where s is the side length (called the edge in this problem)

Since V = 125 cm³, we can take the cube root of 125 to find the edge length.

The cube root of 125 is 5, ( 5³ = 125)

So the edge of the cube is 5 cm

The are of a square is found by the formula

A = s² ,  

where s is the side length (called the edge in this problem)

Since A = 64 cm², we can take the square root of 64 to find the edge length.

The square root of 64 is 8  (8² = 84)

So the edge of the square is 8cm

Comparing the two edges tells us that the edge of the cube is 3cm shorter than the edge of the square.

Find the surface area of a
sphere with a diameter of
15 in.
Can someone please explain how?

Answers

Answer:

About 706.5 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of a sphere is: [tex]SA=4\pi r^2[/tex]

The radius is half the diameter. So, the radius of the given sphere is 7.5 in.

15/2 = 7.5

Find the surface area:

I use 3.14 for pi.

[tex]SA=4*3.14*7.5^2\\\\SA=4*3.14*56.25\\\\SA=12.56*56.25\\\\\boxed{SA=706.5}[/tex]

The surface area is about 706.5 square inches.

Hope this helps.

Answer:

SA=706.86 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

surface area of a sphere = 4πr²

radius r=d/2=15/2=7.5

SA=4(π)(7.5)²

SA=706.86 in²

A police car is located 40 feet on a small straight road perpendicular to main highway. A red car is driving along a highway in the direction of an intersection with that small road and is 180 feet away from the intersection. The police radar reads that the distance between the police car and the red car (this distance is straight between them - not on either road) is decreasing at a rate of 100 feet per second. How fast is the red car actually traveling along the road

Answers

Answer:

the red car is traveling at 102.44 ft/s along the road

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Let consider p be how far the car is up the road and  q be how far the police is off the road.

Also, suppose that r is the distance between the police and the car.

Then, we can have a right triangle in which  we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the r (distance between the cop and the car)

NOW,

p² + q² = r²

r² = 40² + 180²

r² = 1600 + 32400

r² = 34000

r = [tex]\sqrt{34000}[/tex]

r = 184.39

If we consider q'  to be how fast the car is traveling down the road.

And, p' be how fast the police is traveling toward the road.

r' be how fast the distance between the police and the car is changing.

then , the derivative of our equation, p² + q² = r² with respect to time can now be:

2p(p') +2q(q') = 2r(r')

p(p') +q(q') = r(r')

By replacing our values; we have:

40(0) +180(y') = [tex]\sqrt{34000} \times 100[/tex]    (given that the police is not moving p' =0)

180(y') = [tex]\sqrt{34000} \times 100[/tex]

[tex](y') = \dfrac{\sqrt{34000} \times 100}{180}[/tex]

[tex](y') = \dfrac{184.39 \times 100}{180}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{(y') = 102.44 \ ft/s}[/tex]

the red car is traveling at 102.44 ft/s along the road

In a study on the placebo effect on 100 students, 64 were found to perform better on tests after taking a fake pill to improve concentration. What is the experimental probability the placebo pill induced better concentration on the student exams?

Answers

Answer:

16/25 or 64%

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we see that 64 out of the 100 students did better on the exams. So, to find the answer we must find the percentage form of 64 out of 100.

Step one:

what exactly is 64 out of 100? Well, in the math world when we see 'out of' we know that means 'divided by'. So, 64 out of 100 is 64/100.

Step two:

now we have to turn 64/100 into a percentage. We know that 1/100 is 1% so lets multiply 1 by 64. 64*1 = 64. This means that 64/100 = 64%.

I'm not 100% sure what form you need your answer in but if you need it in percentage for the answer is 64%. If you need your answer in a fraction form the answer would be 64/100 or 16/25 if we simplify the answer.

Answer:

The teacher gives each student in the class a pretest. Then she teaches a lesson using a computer program. Afterwards, she gives each student a post-test. The teacher wants to see if the difference in scores will show an improvement.

Step-by-step explanation:

In hypothesis testing, there is  a premise or a claim where an analyst want to test or to investigate in an experiment. In this study, different sampling methods are being carried out.

In hypothesis testing, we usually have the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis.

The null hypothesis is an established hypothesis which is usually denoted by [tex]H_o[/tex] and it is a currently accepted value or default  for a parameter.

On the other hand the alternative hypothesis or the research hypothesis denoted by [tex]H_a[/tex] came into place to challenge the study to be tested.

In the given question , the teacher wants to see the difference in the outcome of the test scores if there will be an improvement.  The same is true for hypothesis testing, we tends to see the difference in the test statistics result maybe it is significant or not  in order to determine the conclusion on the null hypothesis.

if the side length of a square can be represented by 4x + 4 and its area is 1024 square units, find the value of x

Answers

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it’s the area of a square, we can simply do square root of 1024. (Because to get area of square you do side x side). Which is 32.

So basically 4x + 4 = 32... x = 7

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 1024

side length of a square = 4x + 4

A = s²

s = √A

s = √1024

s = 32

using the side length to get the value of x

s = 32

4x + 4 = 32

4x = 32 - 4

x = 28 / 4

x = 7

check:

A = side length * side length

A = (4x + 4) * (4x + 4)

A = (4*7 + 4) * (4*7 + 4)

A = 32 * 32

A = 1024  ok

Barry has been watching the geese that live in his neighborhood. The number of geese changes each week. n f(n) 1 56 2 28 3 14 4 7 Which function best shows the relationship between n and f(n)? f(n) = 28(0.5)n f(n) = 56(0.5)n−1 f(n) = 56(0.5)n f(n) = 112(0.5)n−1

Answers

Answer:

B. f(n) = 56(0.5)^n-1

Step-by-step explanation:

 First, You have to find out the starting population, if you look at the problem you see the population starts at 56

f(x) = 56

Second, you know that the population goes down 50% each week so it has a decay of 0.5

f(x) = 56(0.5)

 Third,  you need to add the exponent of n to make it exponential.  But, if you just add n then the the population would be 28 on week 1 which is incorrect. To fix that you make the exponent n-1 so when you are on week 1 it doesn't become 28 but it stays on 56, and on week 2 it's 28, ect

f(x) = 56(0.5)^n-1

which has a steeper slope y=-2x or y=-3x

Answers

Answer:

y=-3x

Step-by-step explanation:

3>2. It doesn't matter if some or all of the numbers are negative.

Answer:  y = -3x has the steeper slope

==========================================

Explanation:

Any linear equation is of the form y = mx+b, where m is the slope.

For y = -2x, the slope is -2. For y = -3x, the slope is -3.

We just look at the number to the left of x to find the slope.

To figure out which slope is steeper, we simply look to see which slope value is furthest from 0 on the number line. A slope of 0 itself is completely horizontal and flat. As the slope value moves away from zero, in either positive or negative direction, then the slope gets steeper and steeper.

In short, a slope of -3 is more steep compared to a slope of -2. Therefore, y = -3x is the answer.

The graph below helps visually confirm that y = -3x is indeed steeper. We drop one extra unit down each time we move to the right one space.
