Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have:

[tex]\frac{x^{\frac{2}{3}}}{y^{\frac{-3}{4}}}[/tex]

First, we recall that we can switch an exponent from the denominator to the numerator if we multiply the exponent by -1 and vice versa. Therefore:

[tex]=x^{\frac{2}{3}}}\cdot {y^{\frac{3}{4}}[/tex]

Now, use the following property:

[tex]a^{x/n}=\sqrt[n]{a^x}[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]x^{\frac{2}{3}}=\sqrt[3]{x^2}[/tex]

And:

[tex]y^{\frac{3}{4}}=\sqrt[4]{y^3}[/tex]

And so together:

[tex]=x^{\frac{2}{3}}}\cdot {y^{\frac{3}{4}}\\=\sqrt[3]{x^2}\cdot\sqrt[4]{y^3}[/tex]

Female. 11. 28. 39
Total. 43. 36. 79
A. 28 of the cats in the distribution are female
B. In the distribution of cats, 8 are female
C. 28 of the dogs in the distribution are female
D. 28 animals in the distribution are female cats and dogs

Answers

The correct answer is A. 28 of the cats in the distribution are female

Explanation:

The table presented shows the number of female/male dogs and cats, as well as the total of animals in each category. Moreover, in this, the columns show the type of animal (dog or cat), while the rows show its gender (female/male). Also, these categories intersect to show the frequency. For example, number 32, which is the intersection of the categories Dog and Male shows there are 32 male dogs. In this context, if the number 28 joints the categories female and cat, this means 28 of the total animals are female cats and out of the total cats 28 are female. This makes option A the correct answer.

Round to the nearest dollar $7,563.27

Answers

Answer:

$7,563

Step-by-step explanation:

We will round to the nearest whole number to round to the nearest dollar

$7,563.27

since we have 27 cents ( .27), that is less than 50 cents, we leave it alone

$7,563.00 or $7,563

Answer:

$7,563

Step-by-step explanation:

Rounding to the nearest dollar is just like rounding to the nearest whole number.

The number we are given is:

$7,563.27

To round to the nearest dollar, look to the tenths place. If it is less than or equal to 4, round down. If it is greater than or equal to 5, round up.

The tenths place has a 2. Therefore, we leave the number as is.

$7, 563

$7,563 rounded to the nearest dollar is $7,563.00

Find the standard form of the equation of the ellipse with the given characteristics. Center: (1, 2); vertex: (−7, 2); minor axis of length 12

Answers

Answer:

(x-1)²/64 + (y-2)²/ 144= 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

The standard form for an ellipse is

(x-h)/a² + ( y-k)/b²=1

So

h, k

is the centre of the ellipse, and

a is the distance from the centre to the vertices and c is the distance from the centre to the foci.

b is the minor axis.

So b² + c²= a²

In this example

a= -7-1= -8

Below is the table of values of a function. Write the output when the input is n. input 3 8 72 ñ
output 6 11 12 []​

Answers

Answer:

n + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

6 is 3 + 3, 11 is 8 + 3 and 12 is 9 + 3 so the output seems to be the input plus 3. Therefore, when the input is n, the output is n + 3.

Answer:

  output = n+3

Step-by-step explanation:

When the input changes by 5 units (from 3 to 8), the output changes by 5 unis (from 6 to 11). So the rate of change of the output with respect to the input is 1. However, each output is 3 more than the input, so ...

for input n

output = n+3

Sum of the areas of two squares is 260 m². If the difference of their perimeters is 24 m then find the sides of the two squares.​

Answers

Answer: x=14 and y=8

*Note: x and y are used as variables to solve the problem. Just know that the sides for one square is 14 and the other, 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we can use system of equations to solve. Let's use x for one side of a square and y for the other.

Equation 1:

x²+y²=260

We get this equation from the sum of the areas. The x² and y² are from the area. Since all sides of a square are equal lengths, we can directly square them.

Equation 2:

4x-4y=24

This equation comes from the difference of the perimeters. 4x and 4y are perimeters because perimeter is adding all sides of the square together. There are 4 sides to a square, therefore we get 4x and 4y.

We can use substitution method to solve.

4x-4y=24                                   [add both sides by 4y]

4x=24+4y                                  [divide both sides by 4]

x=6+y

Now that we have x, we can plug it into any equation and solve.

(6+y)²+y²=260                            [expand]

y²+12y+36+y²=260                    [combine like terms]

2y²+12y+36=260                       [subtract both sides by 36]

2y²+12y=224                              [factor out 2]

2(y²+6y)=224                             [divide both sides by 2]

y²+6y=112                                   [subtract both sides by 112]

y²+6y-112=0                                [factor equation]

(y-8)(y+14)=0                              [set each factor equal to 0 to solve]

y=8 and y=-14

We know that y=8 because (y+14)=0 gives you y=-14, but a length or area can NEVER be negative, only positive.

Now that we have y, we can plug it into any equation to find x.

4x-4(8)=24                                 [combine like terms]

4x-32=24                                   [add both sides by 32]

4x=56                                         [divide both sides by 4]

x=14

Now, we have x and y. x=14 and y=8.

If the volume of a cube is increased by a factor of 10, by what factor does the surface area per unit volume change

Answers

Answer:

  (1/10)∛100 ≈ 0.4642

Step-by-step explanation:

For a cube of volume V, the edge length is ...

  s = ∛V

and the area is ...

  A = 6s² = 6V^(2/3)

Then the ratio of area to volume is ...

  r1 = A/V = 6V^(2/3)/V = 6V^(-1/3)

If the value of V is increased by a factor of 10, the ratio of area to volume is now ...

  r2 = 6(10V)^(-1/3)

The factor by which the ratio changed is ...

  r2/r1 = (6(10V)^(-1/3))/(6V^(-1/3)) = 10^(-1/3) = (1/10)∛100

The surface area per unit volume changes by a factor of (∛100)/10.

___

Example

For a cube of side length 2, the volume is 2³ = 8 and the surface area is 6·2² = 24. The ratio of surface area to volume is 24/8 = 3.

Multiplying the edge length by ∛10, we now have a volume of (2∛10)³ = 80, and a surface area of 6(2∛10)² = 24(10^(2/3)). The ratio of surface area to volume is ... 24(10^(2/3))/80 = 0.3∛100.

The ratio of area to volume changed by a factor of (0.3∛100)/3 = (∛100)/10, as above.

To solve the expression, expand the terms

That's

[tex] \sqrt{ {4}^{2} \times 10 {c}^{4} \times {cd}^{4} } [/tex]

Using the rule

The square root of a product is equal to the product of the roots of each factor.

Expand

That's

[tex] \sqrt{ {4}^{2} } \times \sqrt{ {c}^{4} } \times \sqrt{ {d}^{4} } \times \sqrt{10c} [/tex]

Reduce the surds

Thats

[tex] \sqrt{ {4}^{2} } = 4 \\ \sqrt{ {c}^{4} } = {c}^{2} \\ \sqrt{ {d}^{4} } = {d}^{2} [/tex]

We have

[tex]4 \times {c}^{2} \times {d}^{2} \times \sqrt{10c} [/tex]

We have the final answer as

[tex]4 {c}^{2} {d}^{2} \sqrt{10c} [/tex]
