Spencer is draining his swimming pool. The expression - 720x + 4,000 represents the amount of water, in gallons, remaining in the pool
after x hours. What does 4,000 represent?
A the time left until the pool is empty

B the gallons of water initially in the pool
Cthe total hours required to drain the pool
D the amount of water being drained per hour

Answers

Answer 1

Using linear function concepts, it is found that the representation of the value of 4,000 is given by:

B the gallons of water initially in the pool.

What is a linear function?

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

In this problem, the amount of water in the pool after x hours is modeled by:

y = -720 x + 4000.

4000 is the y-intercept, which is the initial amount of water in the pool, hence option B is correct.

What is the positive solution to the problem?

Answers

Answer:

The positive solution is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

(4x+3)(6x-3) = 0

We can use the zero product property to find the zeros

4x+3 =0   6x-3 =0

4x =-3          6x = 3

x = -3/4           x = 3/6

x = -3/4             x = 1/2

The positive solution is 1/2

A 90% confidence interval is centered at a _____ and is 90% sure to contain the _______.

a) statistic, variable
b) parameter, statistic
c) statistic, parameter
d) parameter, variable
e) variable, parameter

Answers

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

A 90% confidence interval is centered at a parameter and is 90% sure to contain the statistic.

When you are running a statistical test, you can create a confidence interval centered at the appropriate parameter (such as the mean) to see if the statistic stated in your null hypothesis is true if it's contained in the interval. Whatever the confidence level is determines how wide the interval will be, and as such, will determine how likely the interval will catch the statistic in question.

Quadrilateral FGHI is similar to quadrilateral JKLM. Find the measure of side JK
Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

Heyyyy!!

The answer is 66.9

please read the explanation... it will help... I promise

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay... Here we go...

The context mentions that the two quadrilaterals are similar... meaning their sides are proportional...

So... you basically have to find the scale factor...

(the math itself is easier than the explanation...

51/16 = 3.1875 (that is the number we multiplied the sides of quadrilateral FGHI to get quadrilateral JKLM...

so to get side JK all you have to do is multiply that scale factor by side FG... which after the use of a calculator results in 66.9 (i rounded, and used a calculator... lol)

Apply Pythagorean theorem

PR²=4²+15²=16+225=241

PR=√241

Answer:

a) not safe

b) 15.5 ft (nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

Part (a)

Tan trig ratio

[tex]\sf \tan(\theta)=\dfrac{O}{A}[/tex]

where:

[tex]\theta[/tex] is the angleO is the side opposite the angleA is the side adjacent the angle

Given:

[tex]\theta[/tex] = xO = PV = 4 ftA = RV = VQ = 15 ft

Substituting the given values into the formula and solving for x:

[tex]\implies \sf \tan(x)=\dfrac{4}{15}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf x=\tan^{-1}\left(\dfrac{4}{15}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf x=14.9^{\circ}\:(nearest\:tenth)[/tex]

As 14.9° is not between 18° and 27°, the roof is not safe.

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

Part (b)

Pythagoras’ Theorem

[tex]\sf a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

(where a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse, of a right triangle)

Given:

a = RV = VQ = 15 ftb = PV = 4 ftc = PR

Substituting the given values into the formula and solving for PR:

[tex]\implies \sf 15^2+4^2=PR^2[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf 225+16=PR^2[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf PR^2=241[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf PR=\sqrt{241}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf PR=15.5\:ft\:(nearest\:tenth)[/tex]

Consider parallelogram ABCD below.
Use the information given in the figure to find m of angle B, x, and m of angle BCA.​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Opposite angles in a parallelogram are congruent, so angle B measures 82 degrees.

2) Opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent, so 12=6x. Hence, x=2.

3) Opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent, so by the alternate interior angles theorem, the answer is 62 degrees.

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

the opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent , then

∠ B = ∠ D = 82°

the opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and congruent , then

AD = BC , that is

6x = 12 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 2

∠ BCA and ∠ DAC are alternate angles and are congruent , then

∠ BCA = ∠ DAC = 62°

Answers

Answer:

it should be C I did something very very similar to this but different questions

Answer:

 a) {-6, 2}

 b) -12

 c) minimum: -16

Step-by-step explanation:

I find a graphing calculator to be a big help. Its graph is attached.

a) The function can be factored as:

 f(x) = (x -2)(x +6)

The factors are zero at the x-intercepts: x = 2, x = -6.

b) The y-intercept is the function value when x=0. That is the constant in the function. The y-intercept is -12.

c) The leading coefficient of the function is positive, so its graph opens upward. The extreme value is a minimum. It is found on the axis of symmetry, at the x-value that is halfway between the x-intercepts: x = (2-6)/2 = -2. The function value there is ...

f(-2) = (-2-2)(-2+6) = -4(4) = -16

The minimum is f(-2) = -16.

somebody please help me with this​

Answers

Answer:

P(A) = 13/18

P(B) = 7/18

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Sum greater than 5

If the sum needs to be >5, then it can be 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12.

There are 26 out of 36 events where the sum is >5, thus P(A) = 26/36 = 13/18.

B) Sum divisible by 4 or 6

The sum ranges from 2 to 12, there are two methods to calculate this:

B1) Method 1: Calculate the frequency one by one

The sums divisible by 4 or 6 are S = {4, 6, 8, 12}. There are 9 of them, n(S) = 14. Thus P(B) = 14/36 = 7/18.

B2) Method 2: Use the rule of not mutually exclusive events

Not mutually exclusive events (might also be called mutually inclusive) happens when two events can happen together at the same time. In this problem, the sum might be divisible by 4 and 6 at the same time, i.e. the number 12.

The common formula for not mutually exclusive events is P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B). Nb: P(A) isn't talking about the previous problem, nor does P(B) talk about the second section as a whole; the terms P(A) and P(B) will be utilized next, explained with their uses.

P(A) = probability of the sum being divisible by 4, i.e. the number 4, 8 and 12

P(A) = (3+5+1) / 36 = 9/36 = 1/4

P(B) = probability of the sum being divisible by 6, i.e. the number 6 and 12

P(B) = (5+1) / 36 = 6/36 = 1/6

P(A∩B) = probability of the sum being divisible both by 4 and 6, i.e. the number 12

P(A) = 1 / 36 = 1/36

Here comes the use of formula P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B)

P(A∪B) = 1/4 + 1/6 - 1/36 = 7/18

Nb: As you can see, both method B1 and B2 give the same answer. Method B1 is usually easier to use when facing simpler problems like this. I'd recommend using method B2 for more complex and difficult questions, such as when you can't visualize the problem with a table because there are too much sets of variables.
