Problem at the River-A girl with a fox ,a goose and a bag of corn wanted to cross a river she could only take one animal or object at a time the fox first,the goose if they were left alone together.if the girl took the fox first the goose would eat the corn . How did the girl get all there safely across the river?

Answers

This is a great riddle to get people thinking, because it's not an obvious answer!

River A, you have: a fox, a goose, and a bag of corn.

So, you've probably gone through this looking for some way to bring one of them over, but if she takes the cornmeal, the fox will eat the goose, if she takes the fox, the goose will eat the corn, and if she takes the goose, then the fox and the cornmeal will be left together (which isn't bad until you have to pick one of them to take over with the goose).

Let's start by picking one of the animals (or objects) to take over first. Because it takes two trips for things to get bad with the goose, will do it first.

We take the goose across river A, and come back to the fox and the cornmeal. Nothing bad has happened. Now we know that if we leave the goose with the fox or the cornmeal, the cornmeal or the goose will be eaten.

There is one other thing we can do! The girl can only take one thing back and forth, but she can bring something back when she takes one of them across!

This means that:

She can take the goose first and the cornmeal second, but when she takes the cormeal, she can grab the goose and bring it back with her, so now the cornmeal is across river A but the goose isn't! Then, she can drop off the gosse and grab the fox, because the fox won't do anything to the cornmeal, and then come back for the goose!

Please help me figure out the equation too.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A "difference" indicates subtraction is being used. The difference between these 2 numbers is found the same way we find the distance between 2 points on a number line. Since both the difference and the distance have to be positive numbers, the formula to find it is

|a - b| which is the absolute value of a - b.

If a = -52 and b = -79:

| -52 - (-79) | = | -52 + 79 | = 27 OR

If a = -79 and b = -52:

| -79 - (-52) | = | -79 + 52 | = | -27 | = 27

find the value s of.. a and b if 0 and 2 are the zeros of the polynomial p(x) =2xcube minus 5xsquare plus ax plus b find the third zero of the polynomial ​

Answers

Answer:

a = 2, b = 0 , x = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that x = 0 and x = 2 are zeros of p(x) , then

p(0) = 0 and p(2) = 0

p(0) = 2(0)³ - 5(0)² + a(0) + b = 0 , that is

0 - 0+ 0 + b = 0, then b = 0

p(2) = 2(2)³ - 5(2)² + 2a + b = 0 , that is

16 - 20 + 2a + 0 = 0

- 4 + 2a = 0 ( add 4 to both sides )

2a = 4 ( divide both sides by 2 )

a = 2

Then

p(x) = 2x³ - 5x² + 2x ← factor out x from each term

      = x(2x² - 5x + 2)

      = x(2x - 1)(x - 2)

To find zeros equate p(x) to zero

x(2x - 1)(x - 2) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x = 0

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

These are the 2 zeros already known (given)

2x - 1 = 0 ⇒ 2x = 1 ⇒ x = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ← third zero of p(x)

Trigonometric ratios
class 9
please answer my questions​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Please see the answer in the picture.

Hope it helps!

1. Approach

One is given a trigonometric equation with and one is asked to prove that it is true. Using the attached image, combined with the knowledge of trigonometry, one can evaluate each trigonometric function. Then one can simplify each ratio to solve. To yield the most accurate result, one has to each of the ratios in a fractional form, rather than simplifying it into a decimal form. Remember the right angle trigonometric ratios, these ratios describe the relationship between the sides and angles in a right triangle. Such ratios are as follows,

[tex]sin(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\\\\cos(\theta)=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}\\\\tan(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}\\\\csc(\theta)=\frac{hypotenuse}{opposite}\\\\sec(\theta)=\frac{hypotenuse}{adjacent}\\\\cot(\theta)=\frac{adjacent}{opposite}[/tex]

Please note that the terms (opposite) and (adjacent) are relative to the angle uses in the ratio, however the term (hypotenuse) refers to the side opposite the right angle, this side never changes its name. Use these ratios to evaluate the trigonometric functions. Then simplify to prove the identity.

2. Problem (9)

[tex]\frac{sin(60)+cos(30)}{1+sin(30)+cos(60)}=sin(60)[/tex]

As per the attached image, the following statements regarding the value of each ratio can be made:

[tex]sin(60)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\\\\cos(30)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\\\\sin(30)=\frac{1}{2}\\\\cos(60)=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Substitute,

[tex]\frac{sin(60)+cos(30)}{1+sin(30)+cos(60)}=sin(60)[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{1+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex]\frac{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{1+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{2}}{1+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{2}}{1+1}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\sqrt{3}}{1+1}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex]

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

Thus, this equation is true.

2. Problem (10)

Use a similar strategy to evaluate this equation,

[tex]\frac{1-cos(30)}{sin(30)}=\frac{1-cot(60)}{1+cot(60)}[/tex]

Use the attached image to evaluate the ratios.

[tex]cos(30)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\\\\sin(30)=\frac{1}{2}\\\\cot(60)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}[/tex]

Substitute,

[tex]\frac{1-cos(30)}{sin(30)}=\frac{1-cot(60)}{1+cot(60)}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{1-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}{1+\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex]\frac{1-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{1-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}{1+\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\frac{2-\sqrt{3}}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{1-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}{1+\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\frac{2-\sqrt{3}}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{\frac{\sqrt{3}-1}{\sqrt{3}}}{1+\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\frac{2-\sqrt{3}}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{\frac{\sqrt{3}-1}{\sqrt{3}}}{\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{\sqrt{3}}}[/tex]

[tex]2-\sqrt{3}=\frac{\frac{\sqrt{3}-1}{\sqrt{3}}}{\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{\sqrt{3}}}[/tex]

[tex]2-\sqrt{3}=\frac{\sqrt{3}-1}{\sqrt{3}}*\frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}+1}}[/tex]

[tex]2-\sqrt{3}=\frac{\sqrt{3}-1}{\sqrt{3}+1}[/tex]

Rationalize the denominator,

[tex]2-\sqrt{3}=\frac{\sqrt{3}-1}{\sqrt{3}+1}[/tex]

[tex]2-\sqrt{3}=\frac{\sqrt{3}-1}{\sqrt{3}+1}*\frac{\sqrt{3}-1}{\sqrt{3}-1}[/tex]

[tex]2-\sqrt{3}=\frac{(\sqrt{3}-1)^2}{3-1}[/tex]

[tex]2-\sqrt{3}=\frac{3-2\sqrt{3}+1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]2-\sqrt{3}=\frac{4-2\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]2-\sqrt{3}=2-\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Therefore, this equation is also true.

find the lower quartile for the data {47.2, 33.8, 43, 62, 5.8, 9, 61.4, 30.8, 68.2, 51.6, 13.2, 17.4, 64.2, 50.6, 29.4, 40.4}

Answer:

The lower quartile is 23.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data are;

47.2, 33.8, 43, 62, 5.8, 9, 61.4, 30.8, 68.2, 51.6, 13.2, 17.4, 64.2, 50.6, 29.4, 40.4

Rearranging the data, we have;

5.8, 9, 13.2, 17.4, 29.4, 30.8, 33.8, 40.4, 43, 47.2, 50.6, 51.6, 61.4, 62, 64.2, 68.2

The lower quartile, Q₁, is the (n + 1)/4 th term which is (16 +1)/4 = 4.25th term

However since we have an even set of numbers, we place a separator at the middle and we look for the median of the left half as follows

5.8, 9, 13.2, 17.4, 29.4, 30.8, 33.8, 40.4║ 43, 47.2, 50.6, 51.6, 61.4, 62, 64.2, 68.2

We have two numbers (17.4 + 29.4) at the median of the left set of numbers, we find the average of the two numbers to get the lower quartile

The lower quartile is therefore = (17.4 + 29.4)/2 = 23.4.

after allowing 20% discount an article is sold for rs.672 levying 12% VAT, find its market price​

Answers

The market price is Rs. 750 which was obtained by creating a mathematical relationship from the given parameters.

PERCENTAGE DISCOUNT = 20%

VAT LEVIED= 12%

Hence,

market price * (1 - discount) * (1 + VAT) = price sold

m * (1 - 20%) * (1 + 12%) = 672

m * (1 - 0.2) * (1 + 0.12) = 672

m * 0.8 * 1.12 = 672

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference.

To find the number of terms given [tex]a_{n}[/tex] = - 10 , d = - 2 and a₁ = 100, then

100 - 2(n - 1) = - 10 ( subtract 100 from both sides )

Sammy and Hannah both want to get leeks as their star ingredient. Sammy will draw first, followed by Hannah.
What is the probability that NEITHER contestant draws leeks?
Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answers

The probability that neither of them draws the Leeks card is P = 4/6 = 0.667

Here we can assume that all the cards have the same probability of being randomly drawn.

The cards are:

Cabbage Spinach Kale Leeks Carrots Turnips

So we have 6 cards. We want to find the probability that neither contestant draws the "Leeks" card.

Sammy draws first, the probability of drawing the Leeks card will be equal to the quotient between the number of Leeks cards (one) and the total number of cards (6).

Then the probability of drawing the leeks card is p = 1/6

This means that the probability of NOT drawing the leeks card is:

q = 1 - 1/6 = 5/6.

Now draws Hanna, now there are 5 cards in the deck (because one was already drawn). With the same approach as before, the probability of drawing the Leeks card is p = 1/5, then the probability of NOT drawing the card is:

q = 1 - 1/5 = 4/5.

The joint probability (this is, the probability of both of these events to happen together) is just the product of the individual probabilities.

Then the probability that neither of them draws the Leeks card is:

P = (4/5)*(5/6) = 4/6 = 0.667
