Answer:
x=55,y=14
Step-by-step explanation:
<M = <{opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent and equal}
Hence 3x-55 = 2x=>3x-2x= 55 =>x=55
Simarly;
M+N=180°{ sum of angles in a parallelogram is 180°}
N= 180°-M=>N=180-(3x-55)=180-(3x55-55)= 180- 110=70°
N=70°=>5y=70=>y=70/5=14
therefore x=55,y=14

f(x)<0 over (-∞, -3) and what other interval?
O (-2.4, - 1.1)
O (-3, - 1.1)
O (-1.1, 2)
O (-1.1, 0.9)
Answer:
Option (4). (-1.1, 0.9)
Step-by-step explanation:
In a graph of any function, values of f(x) are represented by the values on the y-axis for the different input values on x-axis.
For the given graph, values of f(x) are less than zero.
That means interval in which the values of the function are negative for the different values of x.
Negative values of the given function are in the intervals (-∞, -3), (-1.1, 9).
Therefore, from the given options, Option (4) will be the answer.
Answer is (-1.1,0.9)
Step-by-step explanation:
A mail carrier can deliver mail to 36 houses in 30 minutes. Mark wants to determine how many houses the carrier can deliver mail to in 7.5 minutes at this rate. He thinks that to find the answer, he should do the following.
1. First divide 36 houses by 30 minutes to find a unit rate of 1.2 houses per minute.
2. Then multiply 1.2 houses per minute by 7.5 minutes to get 9 houses.
Which statement is correct?
-Mark’s method is wrong, because it is impossible to deliver mail to 1.2 houses in a minute. The carrier can only deliver to a whole number of houses.
-Mark’s method is wrong, because it is impossible to deliver mail for 7.5 minutes. The carrier can only deliver mail for a whole number of minutes.
-Mark’s method is correct, because even though it is impossible to deliver mail to 1.2 houses in a minute, 1.2 represents the unit rate of houses per minute.
-Mark’s method is correct, because it is possible to deliver mail for 7.5 minutes; 7.5 represents the unit rate of 7.5 minutes per house.
The correct answer is C. Mark’s method is correct because even though it is impossible to deliver mail to 1.2 houses in a minute, 1.2 represents the unit rate of houses per minute.
Explanation:
To begin Mark should determine the rate of delivery (number of houses the carrier can deliver in 1 minute). This can be found by dividing the houses by the minutes (36 / 30 = 1.2 houses per minute). This means the 1.2 rate found by Mark is correct; also, in this case, it is important to clarify, the carrier will not deliver to 1.2 houses at the same time, but this is the delivery rate or number used to understand the relationship between the number of houses, and the time.
Moreover, you can use this rate, and multiply it by 7.5 and this will show you how many houses the carrier can deliver in this time (7.5 (minutes) x 1.2 (delivery rate) = 9 houses). Thus, the method is correct, and in it, 1.2 represents the unit rate, this is why even when it is not possible to deliver to 1.2 houses all the process is correct.

Answer:
y = 5x + 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The initial percent is 20.
Every minute, the percent goes up 5%, so the slope is 5.
So the equation of the line is y = 5x + 20.
Want Brainliest? Get this Correct The x-values in the table for f(x) were multiplied by -1 to create the table for g(x) What is the relationship between the graphs of the two functions? A. They are reflections of each other across the y-axis B. They are reflections of each other across the x-axis C. The graphs are not related D. They are reflections of each other over the line x = y
Answer:
Option (A).
Step-by-step explanation:
We choose a point from table of f(x), that is (-2, -31)
1). If this point is reflected across x-axis, rule to be followed,
(x, y) → (x, -y)
That means y coordinate of the point gets changed with opposite notation.
If (-2, -31) is reflected over the x-axis,
(-2, -31) → (-2, 31) ----------(1)
2). When a point is reflected over the y-axis,
Rule to be followed,
(x, y) → (-x, y)
(-2, -31) → (2, -31) ----------(2)
3). When a point is reflected over the line y = x
Rule to be followed,
(x, y) → (y, x)
(-2, -31) → (-31, -2) -----------(3)
By comparing f(x) and g(x) we find the relation between the functions as,
f(-2, -31) → g(2, -31)
Rule between the functions f and g matches with the rule number (2).
Therefore, function 'f' has been reflected across y axis to get the function 'g'.

A. The number of adults.
B. The type of training exercises performed by each participant.
C. The size of the physiological blind spot.
D. The number of times an adult performed training exercises.
Question:
The physiological blind spot refers to a very small zone of functional blindness in the eye where the optic nerve passes through the retina. We do not notice it because our nervous system compensates for it. Can eye training reduce the size of a person's physiological blind spot? Researchers recruited a representative sample of 10 adults with normal vision. Each participant performed training exereises with one eye for three weeks. The size of the physiological blind spot was measured (in degrees of visual angle squared) with a motion detection task both prior to training and again after the training was completed. Which of the options is the response variable?
A) The size of the physiological blind spot
B) The number of adults.
C) The type of training exercises performed by each participant.
D) The size of the physiological blind spot.
E) The number of times an adult performed training exercises.
Answer:
The correct answer is A)
Explanation:
The response variable (when experimenting) is the variable or factor about which the researcher is concerned. It can also be (as the name entails) the variable which respond to changes in the experiment.
The changes in the experiment is the training. The variable which the researcher is concerned about and which may or may not change with the introduction of training is the size of the physiological blind spot.

A rectangular plot of farmland will be bounded on one side by a river and on the other three sides by a single-strand electric fence. With 1100 m of wire at your disposal, what is the largest area you can enclose, and what are its dimensions?
Answer:
Length = 550 m
Width = 275 m
Area = 151,250 m2
Step-by-step explanation:
One side of the farmland is bounded by the river, so the perimeter we will need to enclose is:
[tex]Perimeter = Length + 2*Width = 1100\ m[/tex]
And the area of the farmland is given by:
[tex]Area = Length * Width[/tex]
From the Perimeter equation, we have that:
[tex]Length = 1100 - 2*Width[/tex]
Using this in the area equation, we have:
[tex]Area = (1100 - 2*Width) * Width[/tex]
[tex]Area = 1100*Width - 2*Width^2[/tex]
Now, to find the largest area, we need to find the vertex of this quadratic equation, and we can do that using the formula:
[tex]Width = -b/2a[/tex]
[tex]Width = -1100/(-4)[/tex]
[tex]Width = 275\ m[/tex]
This width will give the maximum area of the farmland. Now, finding the length and the maximum area:
[tex]Length = 1100 - 2*Width = 1100 - 550 = 550\ m[/tex]
[tex]Area = Length * Width = 550 * 275 = 151250\ m2[/tex]
Find the constant of variation for the relation and use it to write and solve the equation.
if y varies directly as x and as the square of z, and y=25/9 when x=5 and z=1, find y when x=1 and z=4
Answer:
When x = 1 and z = 4, [tex]y=\frac{80}{9}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The variation described in the problem can be written using a constant of proportionality "b" as:
[tex]y=b\,\,x\,\,z^2[/tex]
The other piece of information is that when x = 5 and z = 1, then y gives 25/9. So we use this info to find the constant "b":
[tex]y=b\,\,x\,\,z^2\\\frac{25}{9} =b\,\,(5)\,\,(1)^2\\\frac{25}{9} =b\,\,(5)\\b=\frac{5}{9}[/tex]
Knowing this constant, we can find the value of y when x=1 and z=4 as:
[tex]y=b\,\,x\,\,z^2\\y=\frac{5}{9} \,\,x\,\,z^2\\y=\frac{5}{9} \,\,(1)\,\,(4)^2\\y=\frac{5*16}{9}\\y=\frac{80}{9}[/tex]

How many quarts of pure antifreeze must be added to 4 quarts of a 10% antifreeze solution to obtain a 20% antifreeze solution?
quart(s) of pure antifreeze must be added.
(Round to the nearest tenth as needed)
Answer:
q = 0.5 quarts of 100% antifreeze
Step-by-step explanation:
q = quarts of pure antifreeze
Set this up as a weighted combination of the mixtures.
(100%)(q) + (10%)(4) = (20%)(q + 4)
100q + 40 = 20(q + 4)
5q + 2 = q + 4
4q = 2
q = 0.5 quarts of 100% antifreeze
A student is interested in becoming an actuary. The student knows that becoming an actuary takes a lot of schooling and will have to take out student loans and wants to make sure the starting salary will be higher than $55,000/year. The student takes a random sample of 30 starting salaries for actuaries and finds a p-value of 0.0392. Use α = 0.05.
a. Choose the correct hypotheses.
H0:μ≠55,000 H1:μ=55,000
H0:μ>55,000 H1:μ≤55,000
H0:μ<55,000 H1:μ≥55,000
H0:μ=55,000 H1:μ>55,000
H0:μ=55,000 H1:μ≠55,000
H0:μ=55,000 H1:μ<55,000
b. Should the student pursue an actuary career?
No, since we can reject the null hypothesis
No, since we can reject the claim
Yes, since we can reject the claim
Yes, since we can can reject the null hypothesis
Answer:
a) H0:μ=55,000 H1:μ>55,000
b) Yes, since we can can reject the null hypothesis
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The null hypothesis (H0) tries to show that no significant variation exists between variables or that a single variable is no different than its mean. While an alternative Hypothesis (Ha) attempt to prove that a new theory is true rather than the old one. That a variable is significantly different from the mean.
For this case;
Null hypothesis is that the starting salary will be equal to $55,000/year.
H0:μ=55,000
Alternative hypothesis is that the starting salary will be greater than $55,000/year.
H1:μ>55,000
b) Decision Rule;
P-value > significance level --- accept Null hypothesis
P-value < significance level --- reject Null hypothesis
For this case;
P-value = 0.0392
α = 0.05
Since P-value < 0.05, we can reject null hypothesis.
Therefore, we can accept alternative hypothesis which is the starting salary will be greater than $55,000/year, so the student should pursue an actuary career because the starting salary will be greater than $55,000/year.
- Yes, since we can can reject the null hypothesis
Tacoma's population in 2000 was about 200 thousand, and has been growing by about 8% each year. If this continues, what will Tacoma's population be in 2013?
Answer: The population will be 408,000 people.
Step-by-step explanation:
So in 2000 there were 200,000 people and it started to grow 8% every year so up to 2013.
so find 8% of 200,000 and then multiply it by the the number of years.
8% * 200,000 = 16,000
Find the difference between the years.
2013 - 2000 = 13 years
13 * 16000 = 208000 This is the amount of new people from 2000 to 2013 so add it to the original population.
208,000 + 200,000 = 408,000

Here is rectangle A. Block A. Rectangle B is ¹/₅ longer than A Block B. Rectangle C is ¹/₃ longer than B Block C. The total length of all three rectangles is 133 cm. How much longer is rectangle C than B?
Answer:
Rectangle C is 14 cm longer than B
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the length of Rectangle A. Rectangle B is ¹/₅ longer than A Block B,
Therefore the length of rectangle B is:
[tex]x+\frac{1}{5}x[/tex]
Rectangle C is ¹/₃ longer than B, therefore the length of rectangle c is:
[tex]x+\frac{1}{5}x+\frac{1}{3}(x+\frac{1}{5}x) =x+ \frac{1}{5}x+\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{1}{15}x=x+\frac{9}{15}x[/tex]
The total length of all three rectangles is 133 cm.
Length of rectangle A + Length of rectangle B + Length of rectangle C = 133 cm
[tex]x+x+\frac{1}{5}x +x+\frac{9}{15}x=133\\x+x+x+\frac{1}{5}x +\frac{9}{15}x=133\\3x+\frac{12}{15}x=133\\ 45x+12x=1995\\57x=1995\\x=35cm[/tex]
Therefore the length of rectangle A is 35 cm, the length of rectangle B is [tex]35+\frac{1}{5}*35=42\ cm[/tex] and the length of rectangle C is [tex]35+\frac{9}{15}*35=56\ cm[/tex]
Rectangle C is ¹/₃ longer than B, which is 14 cm (42\3) longer than B

Now this is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]\frac{\delta E}{\delta m} = \frac{\delta }{\delta m} [mc^2 ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2} } } -1 )][/tex]
[tex]= c^2 [\frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2 } } } -1 ] \frac{\delta m}{\delta m}[/tex]
[tex]= c^2 [\frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2} } } -1 ][/tex]
Also we are asked to find [tex]\frac{\delta E}{\delta V}[/tex]
Now this is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]\frac{\delta E}{\delta V} = \frac{\delta }{\delta v } [mc^2 ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2} } } - 1 )][/tex]
[tex]\frac{\delta E}{\delta V} = mc^2 [\frac{\delta }{\delta v} (\frac{c}{\sqrt{c^2 -v^2} } - 1 )][/tex]
[tex]= mc^2 [c* [\frac{\delta }{\delta v} (c^2 - v^2 )^{-\frac{1}{2} }] - 0][/tex]
[tex]= mc^3 [- \frac{1}{2} (c^2 - v^2 )^{-\frac{3}{2} } * (-2v)][/tex]

resolvemos para encontrar y:
[tex]2y^2+y=253\\2y^2+y-253=0[/tex]
usando la formula general para resolver la ecuación cuadrática:
[tex]y=\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}[/tex]
donde
[tex]a=2,b=1,c=-253[/tex]
Sustituyendo los valores:
[tex]y=\frac{-1+-\sqrt{1-4(2)(-253)} }{2(2)} \\\\y=\frac{-1+-\sqrt{2025} }{4}\\ \\y=\frac{-1+-45}{4} \\[/tex]
usando el signo mas obtenemos que y es:
[tex]y=\frac{-1+45}{4} \\y=\frac{44}{4}\\ y=11[/tex]
(no usamos el signo menos, debido a que obtendriamos fracciones y buscamos numeros enteros)
con este valor de y, podemos encontrar x usando:
[tex]x=2y+1[/tex]
sustituimos [tex]y=11[/tex]
[tex]x=2(11)+1\\x=22+1\\x=23[/tex]
y comprobamos que el producto sea 253:
[tex]xy=253[/tex]

A mountain bike is priced at $413. If the sales tax is 6.5 percent, what is the cost to purchase the mountain bike? Round to the
nearest cent if necessary.
$26.85
$28.91
$437.78
$439.85
answer: D) 439.85
Step-by-step explanation:
we are given the price of the bike which is $413.
we are also given the sales tax which is 6.5%.
sales tax is added to the original price to give us our total. so in order to find the total cost we need to find what the 6.5% sales tax is and add it to our original price. to find the sales tax number in dollars we need to set up our formula. The easiest formula is to use a proportion. X is out of 413 = 6.5% is out of 100%. X/413=6.5/100. We can then cross multiply then divide. 6.5 times 413=2,684.5. then divide 2684.5÷100= 26.845.
we need to round up to the nearest cent since we are working with dollars and cents 26.85. 26.85 is 6.5% of the price of the bike which is 413. Now we just simply add the tax to the original price and we get the cost. 413+26.85=439.85

A quality control consultant is to select 4 of these workers for in-depth interviews. Suppose the selection is made in such a way that any particular group of 4 workers has the same chance of being selected as does any other group (drawing 4 slips without replacement from among 24).
(a) How many selections result in all 4 workers coming from the day shift? What is the probability that all 4 selected workers will be from the day shift? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
(b) What is the probability that all 4 selected workers will be from the same shift? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
(c) What is the probability that at least two different shifts will be represented among the selected workers? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
(d) What is the probability that at least one of the shifts will be unrepresented in the sample of workers? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
The probability that all 4 selected workers will be from the day shift is, = 0.0198
The probability that all 4 selected workers will be from the same shift is = 0.0278
The probability that at least two different shifts will be represented among the selected workers is = 0.9722
The probability that at least one of the shifts will be unrepresented in the sample of workers is P(A∪B∪C) = 0.5257
To solve this question properly, we will need to make use of the concept of combination along with set theory.
What is Combination?In mathematical concept, Combination is the grouping of subsets from a set without taking the order of selection into consideration.
The formula for calculating combination can be expressed as:
[tex]\mathbf{(^n _r) =\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)! }}[/tex]
From the parameters given:
Workers employed on the day shift = 10Workers on swing shift = 8Workers on graveyard shift = 6A quality control consultant is to select 4 of these workers for in-depth interviews:
Using the expression for calculating combination:
(a)
The number of selections results in all 4 workers coming from the day shift is :
[tex]\mathbf{(^n _r) = (^{10} _4)}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{=\dfrac{(10!)}{4!(10-4)!}}[/tex]
= 210
The probability that all 5 selected workers will be from the day shift is,
[tex]\begin{array}{c}\\P\left( {{\rm{all \ 4 \ selected \ workers\ will \ be \ from \ the \ day \ shift}}} \right) = \dfrac{{\left( \begin{array}{l}\\10\\\\4\\\end{array} \right)}}{{\left( \begin{array}{l}\\24\\\\4\\\end{array} \right)}}\\\end{array}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{= \dfrac{210}{10626}} \\ \\ \\ \mathbf{= 0.0198}[/tex]
(b) The probability that all 4 selected workers will be from the same shift is calculated as follows:
P( all 4 selected workers will be) [tex]\mathbf{= \dfrac{ \Big(^{10}_4\Big) }{\Big(^{24}_4\Big)}+\dfrac{ \Big(^{8}_4\Big) }{\Big(^{24}_4\Big)} + \dfrac{ \Big(^{6}_4\Big) }{\Big(^{24}_4\Big)}}[/tex]
where;
[tex]\mathbf{\Big(^{8}_4\Big) = \dfrac{8!}{4!(8-4)!} = 70}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{\Big(^{6}_4\Big) = \dfrac{6!}{4!(6-4)!} = 15}[/tex]
P( all 4 selected workers is:)
[tex]\mathbf{=\dfrac{210+70+15}{10626}}[/tex]
The probability that all 4 selected workers will be from the same shift is = 0.0278
(c)
The probability that at least two different shifts will be represented among the selected workers can be computed as:
[tex]= 1-\dfrac{ (^{10}_4) }{(^{24}_4)}+\dfrac{ (^{8}_4) }{(^{24}_4)} + \dfrac{ (^{6}_4) }{(^{24}_4)}[/tex]
[tex]=1 - \dfrac{210+70+15}{10626}[/tex]
= 1 - 0.0278
= 0.9722
The probability that at least two different shifts will be represented among the selected workers is = 0.9722
(d)
The probability that at least one of the shifts will be unrepresented in the sample of workers is:
[tex]P(AUBUC) = \dfrac{(^{6+8}_4)}{(^{24}_4)}+ \dfrac{(^{10+6}_4)}{(^{24}_4)}+ \dfrac{(^{10+8}_4)}{(^{24}_4)}- \dfrac{(^{6}_4)}{(^{24}_4)}-\dfrac{(^{8}_4)}{(^{24}_4)}-\dfrac{(^{10}_4)}{(^{24}_4)}+0[/tex]
[tex]P(AUBUC) = \dfrac{(^{14}_4)}{(^{24}_4)}+ \dfrac{(^{16}_4)}{(^{24}_4)}+ \dfrac{(^{18}_4)}{(^{24}_4)}- \dfrac{(^{6}_4)}{(^{24}_4)}-\dfrac{(^{8}_4)}{(^{24}_4)}-\dfrac{(^{10}_4)}{(^{24}_4)}+0[/tex]
[tex]P(AUBUC) = \dfrac{1001}{10626}+ \dfrac{1820}{10626}+ \dfrac{3060}{10626}-\dfrac{15}{10626}-\dfrac{70}{10626}-\dfrac{210}{10626} +0[/tex]
The probability that at least one of the shifts will be unrepresented in the sample of workers is P(A∪B∪C) = 0.5257
