Answer:

First we convert the sentence to an equation so:

[tex] \frac{3}{4} x = 24[/tex]

Now to isolate x divide by the recuprical of 3 over 4 which is 4/3

[tex] \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{4}{3} = 24 \times \frac{4}{3} [/tex]

24x4= 96 and 3 remains.

[tex]x = \frac{96}{3} [/tex]

Now we can simplify by 3 and we will get the final answer which is

[tex]x = 32[/tex]

The three geometric mean between 2 and 512 are

The first term = 2

Consider the common ratio as r

Then the second term = 2r

The third term = [tex]2r^2[/tex]

The fourth term is = [tex]2r^3[/tex]

The fifth term is given that 512

The fifth term = [tex]2r^4[/tex]

Then the equation will be

[tex]2r^4[/tex] = 512

[tex]r^4[/tex] = 512 / 2

[tex]r^4[/tex] = 256

r = ±4

When r = 4

The three geometric mean between 2 and 512 are

2r = 2×4 = 8

[tex]2r^2[/tex] = 2×4×4 = 32

[tex]2r^3[/tex] = 2×4×4×4 = 128

When r = -4

The three geometric mean between 2 and 512 are

2r = 2×-4 = -8

[tex]2r^2[/tex] = 2×-4×-4 = 32

[tex]2r^3[/tex] = 2×-4×-4×-4 = -128

Hence, the three geometric mean between 2 and 512 are

As gradients multiplied we get [tex]\frac{-4}{3}[/tex] the line segments AB and BC are not perpendicular

How to find lines are perpendicular?

Perpendicular lines are those that cross at a right angle when two non-vertical lines in the same plane. Vertical and horizontal lines, or the axes of the coordinate plane, are perpendicular to one another. Two parallel lines' slopes have negative reciprocal slopes.

To find whether the line segments are perpendicular we have to first find the gradient of AB and BC

Finding the gradient of AB

A(1,3) and B(2,1)

[tex]m_{AB}[/tex]=(1-3)/(2-1)

       = [tex]\frac{-2}{1}[/tex]

       =-2

Finding the gradient of BC

B(2,1) and C(5,3)

[tex]m_{BC}[/tex]=(3-1)/(5-2)

      =[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

When we multiply the two gradients if we get -1 then the two line segments are perpendicular.

[tex]m_{AB}X m_{BC} = -2X\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

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

Answer:

a = 108°

b = 72°

c = 48°

d = 48°

Step-by-step explanation:

• ∠a and the 72° angle are on a straight line. Therefore they add up to 180°:

∠a + 72° = 180°

⇒ ∠a = 180 - 72°

⇒ ∠a = 108°

• ∠b and the 72° angle are corresponding angles (the angles make an F-shape). Therefore, they are equal:

∠b = 72°

• ∠d and the 48° angle are alternate angles (the angles make a z-shape). Therefore they are equal:

∠d = 48°

• ∠c and ∠d are vertically opposite angles. Therefore, they are equal:

∠c = ∠d

⇒ ∠c = 48°

Considering a discrete distribution modeling the situation, it is found that:

a) The expected value of each $1 bet in roulette is of: -$0.988.

b) The interpretation is given as follows: Over time, you should expect to lose about 999 cents for every dollar you bet.

The expected value of a discrete distribution is calculated as the sum of each outcome multiplied by it's respective probability.

The total number of outcomes for the three-number bet is of:

10 x 10 x 10 = 1000.

As three numbers are taken, and for each number, there are 10 possible outcomes.

Hence the probability of winning is of:

p = 1/1000.

As there is only one correct sequence.

The probability of losing is of:

p = 1 - 1/1000 = 999/1000.

Considering a payout of $11 for a $1 bet, the distribution of earnings is presented as follows:

Hence the expected value of a $1 bet is calculated as follows:

E(X) = 11/1000 - 999/1000 = -$0.988.

Which means that you are expected to lose approximately 99 cents for every dollar that you bet.

The solution of the inequalities is x < - 3 / 2 or x > 48 / 5

In mathematics, an inequality is a relation which makes a non-equal comparison between two numbers or other mathematical expressions.

Inequality expression always have the symbols <, >, ≤ and ≥.

Therefore, let's solve the inequalities.

12x + 7 < - 11 or 5x - 8 > 40

12x + 7 < - 11

subtract 7 from both sides of the inequalities.

12x + 7 - 7 < - 11 - 7

12x < - 18

divide both sides by 12

x < - 18 / 12

x < - 3 / 2

5x - 8 > 40

add 8 to both sides of the inequalities

5x - 8 + 8 > 40 + 8

5x > 48

The height of the goalpost is 16.45 m.

Given, Anand uses a mirror on the ground to measure the height of his school’s football goalpost.

He walks a distance of 14.75 meters from the goalpost, then places a mirror on flat on the ground, marked with an X at the center.

He then steps 1.3 meters to the other side of the mirror, until he can see the top of the goalpost clearly marked in the X.

His partner measures the distance from his eyes to the ground to be 1.45 meters.

we are asked to determine the height of the goalpost = ?

As per the rule of reflection in physics,

Angle of incidence = Angle of reflection

As we can see in the picture attached, both the angles (θ) are equal.

m∠ACB = m∠ECD = 90° - θ

m∠ABC = m∠ADC = 90°

Therefore, both the triangles ΔABC and ΔEDC will be similar.

And by the property of similar triangles, their corresponding sides will be proportional.

AB/ED = CB/CD

1.45/ED = 1.3/14.75

ED = 14.75×1.45/1.3

ED = 16.45 m

Hence the height of the goal post is 16.45 m

The first step is finding the roots of the characteristic equation, which is given as follows:

r² - 4r - 5.

The equation can be factored as follows:

r² - 4r - 5 = (r - 5)(r + 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for simple interest is:

Where A is the final amount, P is the principal, r is the rate, and t is the time in years.

The question does not specify whether the interest rate is annual or not, but I will assume it is! To convert 15 months to years, divide it by 12 months!

[tex]\frac{15}{12}=\frac{5}{4}=1.25[/tex]

I also need the percent to be a decimal. To convert a percent to a decimal, divide by 100.

The y-intercept is (0, 400), which represents the amount of money the radio station originally had. The x-intercept is (8, 0), which represents the number of weeks it will take for the radio station to have $0 left.

In Mathematics, the y-intercept of any graph such as a linear function, generally occur at the point where the value of "x" is equal to zero (x = 0).

Similarly, the x-intercept can be defined as the point at which the graph of any function crosses the x-coordinate and the value of "y" is equal to zero (0).

For the y-intercept, x = 0 and we have the following:

y = 400 - 50x

y = 400 - 50(0)

y = 400.

For the x-intercept, y = 0 and we have the following:

y = 400 - 50x

0 = 400 - 50x

50x = 400

x = 400/50

Answer:

  B. The graph of K has a greater y-intercept

  D. The graph of J has a greater slope.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a table for function J and an equation for function K, you want to know which has the greater slope, and which has the greater y-intercept.

The y-intercept is the value of the function when x=0. We see from the table that y=2 corresponds to x=0 for function J.

We see from the equation for function K that the constant is 8. This is the value of y when x=0.

Function K has the greater y-intercept (8 vs. 2).

The slope is the change in y-value when x increases by 1 unit. We see from the table that y=7 when x=1, so the change in y from x=0 to x=1 is 7-2 = 5. The slope of function J is 5.

The equation for function K has an x-coefficient of 3. This means a change in x of 1 unit will result in a change in y of 3 units. The slope of function K is 3.

Function J has the greater slope (5 vs. 3).

Additional comment

Both functions are graphed in the attachment. The y-intercepts have their points labeled. The graph with the steeper slope is the blue line, function J.
