In the accompanying diagram of circle o, chords AB and CD
intersect at E. If AE = 3, EB = 4, CE = x, and ED = x +1,
find CE

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

AE = 3, EB = 4, CE = x, and ED = x +1,

Equating chord AB and CD

AE*EB = CE*ED

3*4 = x*(x+1)

12 = x² + x

x² + x - 12 = 0

x² +4x - 3x - 12 = 0

x(x + 4) - 3(x + 4)

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

x = - 4 or x = 3

Distance can't be negative :

x = 3

Raw scores on behavioral tests are often transformed for easier comparison. A test of reading ability has mean 67 and standard deviation 10 when given to third graders. Sixth graders have mean score 86 and standard deviation 9 on the same test. To provide separate "norms" for each grade, we want scores in each grade to have mean 100 and standard deviation 20.

Answers

Answer:

a.) a = -34 and b = 2

b.) a = -91.11 b = 2.22

c.) David scored 124, nancy scored 84.27

David scored higher

Step-by-step explanation:

for those in the 3rd grade

mean u = 67

s = 10

we used the z formula

[tex]z=\frac{x-u}{s}[/tex]

[tex]z=\frac{x-67}{10}[/tex]

we have the new score

u = 100

s = 20

we use this formula [tex]z*s+u[/tex]

[tex][\frac{x-67}{10} ]20\\[/tex] + 100

multiply through by 20

[tex][\frac{20x-1340}{10} ] +100[/tex]

dividing the bracket by 10

= [tex]2x-134+100[/tex]

= [tex]2x-34[/tex]

from this solution above,

a = -34 and b = 2

b.)

we solve for those in the 6th grade

u = 86

s = 9

[tex]\frac{x-86}{9}[/tex]

for new score,

y = 100

s = 20

[tex][\frac{x-86}{9} ]20+100[/tex]

[tex]2.22x-191.11+100\\= 2.22x - 91.11[/tex]

from this solution

a = -91.11

b = 2.22

c.) if David scored 79

[tex]= 2(x)-34[/tex]

= 2(79) - 34

= 158 - 34

= 124

if nancy scored 79

= 2.22(79) - 91.11

= 175.38 - 91.11

= 84.27

from these scores we can see that David scored higher in his grade

you and your friend start biking to opposite directions from the same point. You travel 108 feet every 8 seconds. Your friend travels 63 feet every 6 seconds. a) how far apart are you and your friend after 15 minutes? b) after 20 minutes you take a 5- minutes rest, but your friend does not. How far apart are you and your friend after 40 minutes? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

To find your distance apart, you can convert 15 minutes to seconds because that is what the rate is given in.

15 mins x 60 seconds = 900 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 900 seconds, there are 900/8=112.5 groups of 8 seconds. This means there are 112.5 groups of 108 feet.

112.5 x 108 = 12150 feet

12150 feet/5280 feet is approximately 2.3 miles.

For your friend you take 900/6 = 150 groups of 6 seconds.

150 x 63 = 9540 feet

9540 feet/5280 feet = 1.79 miles

1.79 miles + 2.3 miles = 2.09 miles

You and your friend are about 2.09 miles apart after 15 minutes.

B). If you go 2.3 miles every 15 minutes, that means you travel about 0.77 miles every 5 minutes. If you travel 20 more minutes (40-15-5) that would be 0.77x 4=3.07 miles more

3.07 + 2.3 = 5.37 miles after 40 minutes (you).

Your friend travels 1.79 in 15 minutes, so 1.79/3 = 0.6 miles every 5 minutes

0.6 x 5 (5 x 5 = 25 minutes)= 3 miles

1.79 + 3 miles= 4.79 miles (friend)

4.79 + 5.37 = 10.16 miles

You and your friend are about 10.16 miles apart after 40 minutes.

A research team conducted a study showing that approximately 30% of all businessmen who wear ties wear them so tightly that they actually reduce blood flow to the brain, diminishing cerebral functions. At a board meeting of 30 businessmen, all of whom wear ties, what are the following probabilities?

a. at least one tie is too tight
b. more than two ties are too tight
c. no tie is too tight
d. at least 18 ties are not too tight

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.9998

b) 0.9979

c) 0.7

d) 0.9155

Step-by-step explanation:

P( people who wear their ties tightly ) = 0.3

P( people who do not wear their ties tightly ) = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7

sample size ( n ) = 30

Given that the events are independent and there are only two outcomes we will apply Binomial distribution

a) P( at least one tie is too tight )

P ( x ≥ 1 ) = 1 - P ( x < 1 ) = 1 - P ( x = 0 )

       = 1 - 0.00002 = 0.9998 ( excel function: 1 - BINOMDIST(0,30,0.3,0) )

b) P( more than two ties are too tight )

P ( x > 2 ) = 1 - P ( x ≤ 2 ) = 1 - BINOMDIST(2, 30, 0.3, 1 )

                                       = 1 - 0.002113178

                                       = 0.9979

c) P ( no tie is tight )

P ( x = 0 ) = 0.7

d) P( at least 18 ties are not too tight )    i.e. ( P = 0.7 )

   P ( x ≥ 18 ) = 1 - P( x ≤  17 )

                     = 1 - BINOMDIST ( 17, 30, 0.7, 1 )

                     = 1 -  0.08447006

                    = 0.9155

Determine whether the events are independent.Numbers are written on slips of paper in a hat; one person pulls out a slip of paper without replacing it, then a second person pulls out a slip of paper.Independent Not independent

Answers

Answer:

Not independent

Explanation:

Two events are not independent/dependent if the result of one event affects the outcome of the other. In the case above, numbers are picked without replacement, therefore if one slip is picked then the other slip will be picked(slips are picked only once not twice or more as in independent events). Events would be independent if there was a replacement.

Dan's car depreciates at a rate of 7% per year.
By what percentage has Dan's car depreciated after 6 years?
Give your answer to the nearest percent.

Answers

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

The car is depreciated at a rate of 7% per year

We need to find out the percentage when the car is depreciated after 6 years

So,

Since the car is depreciated by 7% so we can say it can be 0.93 times in a year

Now after 6 years, it would make

= 0.93^3

= 0.80

So, the percentage is

= 1 - 0.80

= 0.20

= 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the first equation by 3,and multiply the second equation by 1.

3(3x+y=−11)

1(4x−3y=7)

Becomes:

9x+3y=−33

4x−3y=7

Add these equations to eliminate y:

Then solve13x=−26for x:

13x=−26

(Divide both sides by 13)

Now that we've found x let's plug it back in to solve for y.

The most commonly seen Pythagorean triples are (3, 4, 5), (5, 12, 13), (7, 24, 25), (8, 15, 17) and their multiples.

In problem 4, once you see that the differences of the coordinates are 3 and 4, you can consult your memory of the (3, 4, 5) Pythagorean triple to recognize the hypotenuse length of a triangle with sides 3 and 4 is 5.

Similarly, in problem 5, you recognize the coordinate differences as 5 and 12, so you know from the (5, 12, 13) Pythagorean triple that the distance will be 13.

1. A drama club earned $662.50 from a production where 85 adult tickets were sold and 65
student tickets were sold. An adult ticket costs $2.50 more than a student ticket. Which
system of equations can be used to find a, the cost of an adult ticket, and s, the cost of a
student ticket?

Answers

Answer: The cost of adult ticket is $6.1 and that of student ticket is $2.44

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of adult ticket be 'x' and cost of student ticket be 'y'

From the question, the equations formed are:

[tex]662.5=85x+65y[/tex]                .....(1)

[tex]x=2.5y[/tex]                                ......(2)

Putting value of 'y' from equation 2 to equation 1:

[tex]662.5=85(2.5x)+65y\\\\662.5=271.5y\\\\y=\frac{662.5}{271.5}=\$ 2.44[/tex]

Now, solving for 'x', we get:

[tex]x=2.5(2.44)=\$ 6.1[/tex]

Hence, the cost of adult ticket is $6.1 and that of student ticket is $2.44

This means that the time between logons follows an exponential distribution, which mean is given by:

[tex]E(X) = \frac{1}{\lambda}[/tex]

For this question, we have that [tex]\lambda = 3[/tex], and thus:
