Round your answers to the nearest cent.

Answer:

x = 5 and -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the intersecting chord theorem which states that the products of the lengths of the line segments on each chord are equal.

Hence:

let

a = 6, b = 5, c = x+1 and d = x

Therefore, ab = cd

6*5 = x(x+1)

30 = x²+x

x²+x - 30 = 0

x²+ 6x - 5x - 30 = 0

x(x+6) - 5(x+6) =0

(x-5)(x+6) = 0

x-5 =0 and x+6 = 0

x = 5 and -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

there are infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

if you add y-3 to both sides of the first equation, you will see that it is equal to the second equation, so they are the same line. Therefore, there are infinite solutions to this system

Answer:

The rate at which the distance between the two cars is increasing is 30 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

speed of the first car, v₁ = 24 mi/h

speed of the second car, v₂ = 18 mi/h

Two hours later, the position of the cars is calculated as;

position of the first car, d₁ = 24 mi/h  x 2 h  = 48 mi

position of the second car, d₂ = 18 mi/h  x 2 h = 36 mi

The displacement of the two car is calculated as;

displacement, d² = 48² + 36²

                        d² = 3600

                        d = √3600

                        d = 60 mi

The rate at which this displacement is changing = (60 mi) / (2h)

                                                                                 = 30 mi/h

Answer:

  x = 14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We can only solve for x if the triangles are similar. The arrows on the left and right legs say those are parallel. Since alternate interior angles at each of the transversals are congruent, the triangles are AA similar.

ΔABC ~ ΔDEC, so we have ...

  EC/ED = BC/BA

  x/(18 cm) = (35 cm)/(45 cm)

  x = (18 cm)(7/9) = 14 cm

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

8 and 3/5 = 8.2 and 8.2 is between 8 and 9 so the answer is D.

Answer:

17 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula, [tex]d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

Plug in the points and simplify:

[tex]d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{(-8 - 7)^2 + (0-8)^2}[/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{(-15)^2 + (-8)^2}[/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{225 + 64[/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{289[/tex]

[tex]d = 17[/tex]

So, the distance between the points is 17 units

Answer:

0.0625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of toppings = 4 (ground beef, black beans, refried beans, and sour cream)

The probability of choosing any particular topping at random from the four is :

Probability = required / total possible outcomes

Hence, P = 1 / 4 = 0.25

Hence, the probability of choosing : getting refried bean and sour cream :

P(refried bean) = 1/4

P(sour cream) = 1/4

P(refried bean and sour cream) = 1/4 * 1/4 = 1/16 =

0.0625

Answer:

1250 supermarkets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\frac{dN}{dt} = N(1 - 0.0008N)[/tex]

[tex]N(0) = 1[/tex]

Required

Number of supermarkets over a long period of time

To do this, we simply set

[tex]\frac{dN}{dt} = 0[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]N(1 - 0.0008N) = 0[/tex]

Split

[tex]N = 0\ or\ 1 - 0.0008N = 0[/tex]

Solve: [tex]1 - 0.0008N = 0[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]0.0008N = 1[/tex]

Make N the subject

[tex]N = \frac{1}{0.0008}[/tex]

[tex]N = 1250[/tex]

So:

[tex]\lim_{t \to \infty} N(t) = 1250[/tex]

Answer:

isosceles acute

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two sides that are equal so the triangle is isosceles

None of the angles are larger than 90 degrees so non of the angles are obtuse,  and none of the angles are 90 degrees, so the triangle is acute ( which means the angles are all less than 90 degrees)

Answer:

x = 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

5(3x + 4) = 23

Distribute

15x+20 = 23

Subtract 20 from each side

15x+20-20 = 23-20

15x = 3

Divide by 15

15x/15 = 3/15

x = 1/5

Answer:

[tex]x = 0.2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Distribute

[tex]5(3x + 4) = 23[/tex]

[tex](5 * 3x) + (5 * 4) = 23[/tex]

[tex](15x) + 20 = 23[/tex]

Step 2:  Subtract 20 from both sides

[tex](15x) + 20 - 20 = 23 - 20[/tex]

[tex]15x = 3[/tex]

Step 3:  Divide both sides by 15

[tex]\frac{15x}{15} = \frac{3}{15}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

[tex]x = 0.2[/tex]

Answer:  [tex]x = 0.2[/tex]

Answer:

B. The question may not be directly stated.

Answer:

[tex]35.36,44.64[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size [tex]n=40[/tex]

Mean weight [tex]\=x =67[/tex]

Standard deviation [tex]\sigma=11.4[/tex]

Confidence Interval [tex]CI=0.99[/tex]

\alpha==0.01

Therefore

[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=Z_[0.005][/tex]

From table

[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=2.576[/tex]

Generally, the equation for Margin of error is mathematically given by

[tex]M.E=Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}*(\frac{\sigma}{sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]M.E=2.576*(\frac{11.4}{\sqrt{40}}[/tex]

[tex]M.E=4.64[/tex]

Therefore Estimated mean is

[tex]\=x-M.E<\mu <\=x +E[/tex]

[tex]40-4.64<\mu< 40+4.64[/tex]

[tex]35.36<\mu < 44.64[/tex]

[tex]35.36,44.64[/tex]

Let it be x

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{3}{5}=\dfrac{x}{x+4}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 3(x+4)=5x[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 3x+12=5x[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 5x-3x=12[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 2x=12[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{12}{2}[/tex]

Answer:

c. The researchers are 95% confident that the true mean difference in ALT values between the population of drinkers and population of non-drinkers is between 24.32 and 39.68.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Groups:

x1 = 69 ; s1 = 19 ; n1 = 38

x2 = 32 ; s2 = 14 ; n2 = 37

1 - α = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05

Using a confidence interval calculator to save computation time, kindly plug the values into the calculator :

The confidence interval obtained is :

(24.32 ; 39.68) ; This means that we are 95% confident that the true mean difference in ALT values between the two population lies between

(24.32 ; 39.68) .

Answer:

[tex]x^\frac{3}{5} = (x^3 )^\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

[tex]x^\frac{3}{5} = \sqrt[5]{x^3}[/tex]

[tex]x^\frac{3}{5} = (\sqrt[5]{x})^3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]x^\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Required

The equivalent expressions

We have:

[tex]x^\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Expand the exponent

[tex]x^\frac{3}{5} = x^{ 3 * \frac{1}{5}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]x^\frac{3}{5} = (x^3 )^\frac{1}{5}[/tex] ----- this is equivalent

Express 1/5 as roots (law of indices)

[tex]x^\frac{3}{5} = \sqrt[5]{x^3}[/tex] ------ this is equivalent

The above can be rewritten as:

[tex]x^\frac{3}{5} = (\sqrt[5]{x})^3[/tex] ------ this is equivalent

Step-by-step explanation:

1. In an arithmetic sequence, the general term can be written as

xₙ = y + d(a-1), where xₐ represents the ath term, y is the first value, and d is the common difference.

Given the third term and the fifth term, and knowing that the difference between each term is d, we can say that the 4th term is x₃+d and the fifth term is the fourth term plus d, or (x₃+d)+d =

x₃+2d. =x₅ Given x₃ and x₅, we can subtract x₃ from both sides to get

x₅-x₃ = 2d

divide by 2 to isolate d

(x₅-x₃)/2 = d

This lets us solve for d. Given d, we can say that

x₃ = y+d(2)

subtract 2*d from both sides to isolate the y

x₃ -2*d = y

Therefore, because we know x₃ and d at this point, we can solve for y, letting us plug y and d into our original equation of

xₙ = y + d(a-1)

2.

Given the third and fifth term, with a common ratio of r, we can say that the fourth term is x₃ * r. Then, the fifth term is

x₃* r * r

= x₃*r² = x₅

divide both sides by x₃ to isolate the r²

x₅/x₃ = r²

square root both sides

√(x₅/x₃) = ±r

One thing that is important to note is that we don't know whether r is positive or negative. For example, if x₃ = 4 and x₅ = 16, regardless of whether r is equal to 2 or -2, 4*r² = 16. I will be assuming that r is positive for this question.

Given the common ratio, we can find x₆ as x₅ * r, x₇ as x₅*r², and all the way up to x₁₀ = x₅*r⁵. We don't know the general term, but can still find the tenth term of the sequence

Answer:

The original height of the plant was 2 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]y = 2 + 4x[/tex]

Required

Interpret the y-intercept

The y-intercept is when [tex]x = 0[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]y = 2 + 4 *0[/tex]

[tex]y = 2 + 0[/tex]

[tex]y = 2[/tex]

This implies that the original or initial height was 2 mm
