Step-by-step explanation:
Find lim x→3 sqrt 2x+3-sqrt 3x/ x^2-3x. you must show your work or explain your work in words plsss I need help
I'm assuming the limit is supposed to be
[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{x\to3}\frac{\sqrt{2x+3}-\sqrt{3x}}{x^2-3x}[/tex]
Multiply the numerator by its conjugate, and do the same with the denominator:
[tex]\left(\sqrt{2x+3}-\sqrt{3x}\right)\left(\sqrt{2x+3}+\sqrt{3x}\right)=\left(\sqrt{2x+3}\right)^2-\left(\sqrt{3x}\right)^2=-(x-3)[/tex]
so that in the limit, we have
[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{x\to3}\frac{-(x-3)}{(x^2-3x)\left(\sqrt{2x+3}+\sqrt{3x}\right)}[/tex]
Factorize the first term in the denominator as
[tex]x^2-3x=x(x-3)[/tex]
The [tex]x-3[/tex] terms cancel, leaving you with
[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{x\to3}\frac{-1}{x\left(\sqrt{2x+3}+\sqrt{3x}\right)}[/tex]
and the limand is continuous at [tex]x=3[/tex], so we can substitute it to find the limit has a value of -1/18.
The top of a lighthouse is 100 m above sea level. The angle of elevation from the
deck of the sailboat to the top of the lighthouse is 28°. Calculate the distance
between the sailboat and the lighthouse.
Answer:
188 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The tangent of the angle is the ratio of the side opposite (height of the lighthouse) to the side adjacent (distance to the lighthouse):
tan(28°) = (100 m)/distance
distance = (100 m)/tan(28°) ≈ 188 m
The distance between the sailboat and the lighthouse is about 188 m.
Triangles E F G and K L M are shown. Angles E F G and K L M are congruent. The length of side K L is 6, the length of side M L is 5, and the length of K M is 8. The length of E G is 24, the length of G F is 15, and the length of E F is 18. Can the triangles be proven similar using the SSS or SAS similarity theorems? Yes, △EFG ~ △KLM only by SSS. Yes, △EFG ~ △KLM only by SAS. Yes, △EFG ~ △KLM by SSS or SAS. No, they cannot be proven similar by SSS or SAS.?
Answer:
The Answer is C: Yes, △EFG~ △KLM by SSS or SAS
Step-by-step explanation:
SSS is for side-side-side
Both triangles have all three sides given, so the SSS similarity theorem is one way to prove these triangles are similar.
SAS is for side-angle-side
Both triangles have one angle measurement given, and two side lengths given, therefore we can also use the SAS similarity theorem to prove the two triangles are similar.
Since both SSS and SAS work to prove the triangles are similar, the correct answer is C: Yes, △EFG~ △KLM by SSS or SAS

Engineers must consider the breadths of male heads when designing helmets. The company researchers have determined that the population of potential clientele have head breadths that are Normally distributed with a mean of 6.5 inches and a standard deviation of 1.2 inches. According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, we expect 95% of head breadths to be:___________.
Answer:
"According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, we expect 95% [95.45%] of head breadths to be" between 4.1 inches and 8.9 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, approximately:
68% (more precisely, 68.27%) of the data from the normal distribution lie one standard deviation, [tex] \\ \sigma[/tex], above and below the population mean, [tex] \\ \mu[/tex].95% (more precisely, 95.45%) of the data lie two standard deviations, [tex] \\ 2\sigma[/tex], above and below the population mean, [tex] \\ \mu[/tex], and finally,99.7 (or more precisely, 99.73%) of the data lie three standard deviations, [tex] \\ 3\sigma[/tex], above and below the population mean, [tex] \\ \mu[/tex].Then, if we have--from the question--that:
The random variable is head breadths.This variable follows a normal distribution.The population's mean for this distribution is [tex] \\ \mu = 6.5[/tex] inches.The population's standard deviation is [tex] \\ \sigma =1.2[/tex] inches.We have to remember that two parameters characterize a normal distribution: the population's mean and the population's standard deviation. So, mathematically, the distribution we have from question is [tex] \\ N(6.5, 1.2)[/tex].
For 95% (95.45%) of the head breadths, we expect that they are two standard deviations below and above the population's mean.
For solving this, we need to use the cumulative standard normal distribution (in case we need to find probabilities) and also use standardized values or z-scores:
[tex] \\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [1]
A z-score "tells us" the distance from the mean in standard deviations units. If the z-score is positive, it is above the mean. If it is negative, it is below the mean.
Since 95% (95.45%) of the head breadths are two standard deviations (above and below the mean), we have (using [1]):
[tex] \\ \pm2 = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
But we already know that [tex] \\ \mu=6.5[/tex] inches and [tex] \\ \sigma=1.2[/tex] inches.
Thus (without using units) for values above the population's mean:
[tex] \\ 2 = \frac{x - 6.5}{1.2}[/tex]
Solving the equation for x, we multiply by 1.2 at each side of [1] :
[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = \frac{x - 6.5}{1.2} * 1.2[/tex]
[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = (x - 6.5)\frac{1.2}{1.2}[/tex]
[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = (x - 6.5)\frac{1.2}{1.2}[/tex]
[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = (x - 6.5)*1[/tex]
[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = x - 6.5[/tex]
Adding 6.5 at each side of the previous equation:
[tex] \\ (2 * 1.2) + 6.5 = x - 6.5 + 6.5[/tex]
[tex] \\ (2 * 1.2) + 6.5 = x + 0[/tex]
[tex] \\ (2 * 1.2) + 6.5 = x[/tex]
Therefore, the raw value, x, in the distribution that is two standard deviations above the population's mean is:
[tex] \\ x = (2 * 1.2) + 6.5[/tex]
[tex] \\ x = 2.4 + 6.5[/tex]
[tex] \\ x = 8.9[/tex] inches.
For two standard deviations below the mean, we proceed in the same way:
[tex] \\ -2 = \frac{x - 6.5}{1.2}[/tex]
[tex] \\ -2*1.2 = x - 6.5[/tex]
[tex] \\ (-2*1.2) + 6.5 = x[/tex]
[tex] \\ x = (-2*1.2) + 6.5[/tex]
[tex] \\ x = -2.4 + 6.5[/tex]
[tex] \\ x = 4.1[/tex] inches
Therefore, "according to the 68-95-99.7 rule, we expect 95% [95.45%] of head breadths to be" between 4.1 inches and 8.9 inches.
The graph below shows these values, and the shaded area represents 95% of the data, or, to be more precise, 95.45% (0.954499).

I need help with all three :(
Answer:
1: Glide
2: Reflection
3: Reflection
Step-by-step explanation:
1): The first one is glide because you are just moving the triangle and not changing anything to the angle and the size.
2): The second one is a reflection because you are reflecting across an invisable line. Basicly think of it as a mirror. In the picture below, you can see the line of reflection.
3): The third one is also a reflection for the same reason as the second, (view attached image below for line of reflection.

At a local college, 138 of the male students are smokers and are non-smokers. Of the female students, are smokers and are non-smokers. A male student and a female student from the college are randomly selected for a survey. What is the probability that both are non-smokers?
Answer:
The probability that both the male and female student are non-smokers is 0.72.
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is:
At a local college,178 of the male students are smokers and 712 are non-smokers. Of the female students,80 are smokers and 720 are nonsmokers. A male student and a female student from the college are randomly selected for a survey. What is the probability that both are non-smokers?
Solution:
Let, X denote the number of non-smoker male students and Y denote the number of non-smoker female students.
It is provided that:
X' = 178
X = 712
Tx = 890
Y' = 80
Y = 720
Ty = 800
Compute the probability of selecting a non-smoker male student as follows:
[tex]P (\text{Non-smoker Male student})=\frac{712}{890}=0.80[/tex]
Compute the probability of selecting a non-smoker female student as follows:
[tex]P (\text{Non-smoker Female student})=\frac{720}{800}=0.90[/tex]
Compute the probability that both the male and female student are non-smokers as follows:[tex]P(\text{Non-smoker Male and Female})=P(\text{Non-smoker Male})\times P(\text{Non-smoker Female})[/tex]The event of any female student being a non-smoker is independent of the male students.
[tex]P(\text{Non-smoker Male and Female})=0.80\times 0.90[/tex]
[tex]=0.72[/tex]
Thus, the probability that both the male and female student are non-smokers is 0.72.

John has grades of 82 and 98 on his first two history tests. What must he score on his third test so that his average is at least 88?
John's average on all three tests, assuming a score of S on the third test, would be
(82 + 98 + S)/3
He wants the average to be at least 88, so solve the inequality:
(82 + 98 + S)/3 ≥ 88
82 + 98 + S ≥ 264
180 + S ≥ 264
S ≥ 84
So John needs to obtain a grade of at least 84 on the third test to get the average he wants.
The score on his third test is 84 so that his average is at least 88 given first two grades 82 and 98. This can be obtained by using the formula to find average.
What is the formula to find average?Average of observations is the ratio of sum of observations to total number of observations.
How do we find the third grade using average formula?
Grade of first test=82
Grade of second test = 98
let grade of third test be x
Average of the grades = [tex]\frac{82+98+x}{3}[/tex] ≥ 88
[tex]\frac{180+x}{3}[/tex] ≥ 88 ⇒ x ≥ 246-180 ⇒ x ≥ 84
Hence we can say that the score on his third test is 84 so that his average is at least 88 given first two grades 82 and 98.

x ≅ 12 mins
Step-by-step explanation:
(MISSING PART OF THE QUESTION: AVERAGE WAITING TIME = 2.5 MINUTES)
Step 1For such problems, we can use probability density function, in which probability is found out by taking integral of a function across an interval.
Probability Density Function is given by:
[tex]f(t)=\left \{ {{0 ,\-t<0 }\atop {\frac{e^{-t/\mu}}{\mu}},t\geq0} \right. \\[/tex]
Consider the second function:
[tex]f(t)=\frac{e^{-t/\mu}}{\mu}\\[/tex]
Where Average waiting time = μ = 2.5
The function f(t) becomes
[tex]f(t)=0.4e^{-0.4t}[/tex]
Step 2The manager wants to give free hamburgers to only 1% of her costumers, which means that probability of a costumer getting a free hamburger is 0.01
The probability that a costumer has to wait for more than x minutes is:
[tex]\int\limits^\infty_x {f(t)} \, dt= \int\limits^\infty_x {}0.4e^{-0.4t}dt[/tex]
which is equal to 0.01
Step 3Solve the equation for x
[tex]\int\limits^{\infty}_x {0.4e^{-0.4t}} \, dt =0.01\\\\\frac{0.4e^{-0.4t}}{-0.4}=0.01\\\\-e^{-0.4t} |^\infty_x =0.01\\\\e^{-0.4x}=0.01[/tex]
Take natural log on both sides
[tex]ln (e^{-0.4x})=ln(0.01)\\-0.4x=ln(0.01)\\-0.4x=-4.61\\x= 11.53[/tex]
ResultsThe costumer has to wait x = 11.53 mins ≅ 12 mins to get a free hamburger

The lengths of a professor's classes has a continuous uniform distribution between 50.0 min and 52.0 min. If one such class is randomly selected, find the probability that the class length is between 50.1 and 51.1 min. P(50.1 < X < 51.1) =
Answer:
P(50.1 < X < 51.1) = 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
An uniform probability is a case of probability in which each outcome is equally as likely.
For this situation, we have a lower limit of the distribution that we call a and an upper limit that we call b.
The probability that we find a value X between c and d is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(c < X < d) = \frac{d - c}{b - a}[/tex]
The lengths of a professor's classes has a continuous uniform distribution between 50.0 min and 52.0 min.
This means that [tex]a = 50, b = 52[/tex]
So
[tex]P(50.1 < X < 51.1) = \frac{51.1 - 50.1}{52 - 50} = 0.5[/tex]
