The length of the segment between the points $(2a, a-4)$ and $(4, -1)$ is $2\sqrt{10}$ units. What is the product of all possible values for $a$? LOTS OF POINTS AND BRAINLIEST TO CORRECT ANSWER!

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of a segment is

sqrt( ( y2-y1)^2 + (x2-x1) ^2) = 2 sqrt(10)

sqrt( ( a-4 - -1)^2 + (2a -4) ^2) = 2 sqrt(10)

sqrt( ( a-4 +1)^2 + (2a -4) ^2) = 2 sqrt(10)

Combine like terms

sqrt( ( a-3)^2 + (2a -4) ^2) = 2 sqrt(10)

Square each side

( a-3)^2 + (2a -4) ^2) = 4 *(10)

FOIL the left side

a^2 -6a +9   + 4a^2 -16a +16 = 40

Combine like terms

5a^2 -22a +25 = 40

Subtract 40 from each side

5a^2 -22a -15 =0

Factor

(a - 5) (5 a + 3) = 0

Using the zero product property

a-5 =0   5a +3 = 0

a = 5       5a = -3

a=5     a = -3/5

The product of the terms is

5 * -3/5 = -3

A chemical company makes two brands

antifreeze. In order to obtain 80 gallons of a
mixture that contains 70o£ pure antifreeze, hov
mabry gallons of each band ot antifneze must
bo used?​

Answers

Answer:

16 bags for the first(30% pure) and 64 bags of the second(80% pure)

Step-by-step explanation:

If they are mixed in a ratio of x bags to y bags

(0.3x+0.8y)/(x+y) = 0.7

0.3x + 0.8y = 0.7(x+y)

Multiply both sides with 10

3x + 8y = 7(x+y)

4x = y ——(1)

x + y = 80 ——(2)

Solve simultaneously

x + 4x = 80

5x = 80

x = 16 bags

y = 4x = 64 bags

If f(x)=ax+b and f(2)=1 and f(-3)=11, what is the value of A?

Answers

Answer:

a = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=ax+b

f(2)=1  

f(-3)=11

f(2) = 1   means   2a+b =1

f(-3)=11   means   -3a + b = 11

Subtracting the two equations

-(-3a +b =11) becomes 3a -b = -11   so we can add

2a+b =1

3a - b = -11

----------------------

5a = -10

Divide by 5

5a/5 = -10/5

Find the maximum and minimum values of the function f(x,y)=2x2+3y2−4x−5 on the domain x2+y2≤100. The maximum value of f(x,y) is:

Answers

First find the critical points of f :

[tex]f(x,y)=2x^2+3y^2-4x-5=2(x-1)^2+3y^2-7[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=2(x-1)=0\implies x=1[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=6y=0\implies y=0[/tex]

so the point (1, 0) is the only critical point, at which we have

[tex]f(1,0)=-7[/tex]

Next check for critical points along the boundary, which can be found by converting to polar coordinates:

[tex]f(x,y)=f(10\cos t,10\sin t)=g(t)=295-40\cos t-100\cos^2t[/tex]

Find the critical points of g :

[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm dg}{\mathrm dt}=40\sin t+200\sin t\cos t=40\sin t(1+5\cos t)=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies\sin t=0\text{ OR }1+5\cos t=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies t=n\pi\text{ OR }t=\cos^{-1}\left(-\dfrac15\right)+2n\pi\text{ OR }t=-\cos^{-1}\left(-\dfrac15\right)+2n\pi[/tex]

where n is any integer. We get 4 critical points in the interval [0, 2π) at

[tex]t=0\implies f(10,0)=155[/tex]

[tex]t=\cos^{-1}\left(-\dfrac15\right)\implies f(-2,4\sqrt6)=299[/tex]

[tex]t=\pi\implies f(-10,0)=235[/tex]

[tex]t=2\pi-\cos^{-1}\left(-\dfrac15\right)\implies f(-2,-4\sqrt6)=299[/tex]

So f has a minimum of -7 and a maximum of 299.

Solve the equation. - 2(2x-4)= 4x​

Answers

-2(2x-4) = -4x+8 or 2(2x-4) ≠ 4x ; -4x+8 ≠ 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

Did you accidentally write =4x after your expression? If so, then let me explain why my answer is correct. I used distributive property of multiplication, so I multiplied -2 with 2x to get -4x, and -2 multiplied with -4 to get 8. So my final answer was -4x+8. If you did not accidentally put -4x, then my answer would be, 2(2x-4) ≠ 4x or -4x+8 ≠ 4x. Hope this helped.

Find the measure of a.
A. 60
B. 57
C. 40
D. 80

Answers

Answer:

Option (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since angle 'a' is the inscribed angle of the given triangle

Therefore, angle measure of the intercepted arc will be equal to the double of the inscribed angle.

x = 2a ⇒ a = [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex]

By the tangent-chord theorem,

"Angle between a chord and tangent measure the half of the angle measure of intercepted minor arc"

[tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] = 40°

Therefore, a = [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] = 40°

Option (C) will be the answer.

A population culture begins with 20 strands of bacteria and then doubles every 4 hours. This can be modeled by , where t is time in hours. How many strands of bacteria are present at 20 hours?

Question 13 options:


A)


425 strands of bacteria


B)


567 strands of bacteria


C)


640 strands of bacteria


D)


375 strands of bacteria

Answers

Answer:

C) 640 strands of bacteria

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told in the question that the population doubles every 4 hours

Hence, formula to solve this question =

P(t) = Po × 2^t/k

From the question, we have the following information:

Beginning amount (Po) = 20 strands of bacteria

Rate(k) = 4 hours

Time(t) = 20 hours

Ending time (P(t)) = unknown

Ending amount = 20 × 2^20/4

= 20 × 2^5

= 20 × 320

= 640 strands of bacteria.

Therefore, the number of strands left after 20 hours is 640 strands of bacteria.

So we can use ANOVA

Null hypothesis

H0: µA = µB=µC

all the means are equal

Alternative hypothesis

The significance level is set at α-0.005

The test statistic to use is

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (2, 3)? x + 2y = 4 x + 2y = 8 2x + y = 4 2x + y = 8

Answers

Answer:

x + 2y = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Line goes through (-4, 0) and (4, -4).

The slope is (-4 - 0) / (4 - -4) = -4 / (4 + 4) = -4 / 8 = -1/2.

Since we are looking for the equation of the line parallel to that line, the slope will be the same.

We have an equation of y = -1/2x + b. We have a point at (2, 3). We can then say that y = 3 when x = 2.

3 = (-1/2) * 2 + b

b - 1 = 3

b = 4.

So, we have y = -1/2x + 4.

1/2x + y = 4

x + 2y = 8.

In 2018, the population of a district was 25,000. With a continuous annual growth rate of approximately 4%, what will the
population be in 2033 according to the exponential growth function?
Round the answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

40,000 populations

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial population in 2018 = 25,000

Annual growth rate (in %) = 4%

Yearly Increment in population = 4% of 25000

= 4/100 * 25000

= 250*4

= 1000

This means that the population increases by 1000 on yearly basis.

To determine what the  population will be in 2033, we need to first know the amount of years we have between 2018 and 2033.

Amount of years we have between 2018 and 2033 = 2033-2018

= 15 years

After 15 years, the population will have increased by 15*1000 i.e 15,000 more than the initial population.

Hence the population in 2033 will be Initial population + Increment after 15years = 25,000+15000 = 40,000 population.

A manufacturer of chocolate chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 407 gram setting. It is believed that the machine is underfilling the bags. A 20 bag sample had a mean of 397 grams with a standard deviation of 13. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. State the null and alternative hypotheses.

Answers

Answer:

Null hypothesis: μ = 407

Alternative hypothesis: μ < 407.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, the machine is SUPPOSED to fill the bag so that the bag weighs 407 grams. So, the null hypothesis will be that the machine is doing what it is supposed to be doing. And so, μ = 407 grams would be the null.

The worker thinks the machine is filling the bags to LESS THAN what it is supposed to. So, the alternative hypothesis is that the machine is NOT doing what it is supposed to and μ < 407 grams.

What is the slope of the line showed?

Answers

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the slope of a line is rise over run. We know that the slope of the line will be positive because the line is going up from left to right.

Rise is the change on the y-axis, going up and down. Run is the change on the x-axis, going from left to right.

Let's start from the origin (0,0). To reach the next point on the line, we have to go up two points (rise) and over one point (run).

Slope = rise/run

Slope = 2/1

Slope = 2
