One number is six times as large as another. The sum of their reciprocal is 7. What are the numbers

X=6y

sum of their reciprocals
(1/x)+(1/y)=7
x=6y
1/6y+1/y=7
1/6y+6/6y=7
7/6y=7
times both sides by 6y
7=42y
divide both sides by 42
1/6=y

x=6y
x=6(1/6)
x=6/6
x=1

the numbers are 1 and 1/6

PART A: Mrs. konsdorf claims that angle R is a right angle.Is Mrs. konsdorf correct? explain your reasoning PART B: if T is trab
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Part A: Angle R is not a right angle.

Part B; Angle GRT' is a right angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

From the given figure it is noticed that the vertices of the triangle are G(-6,5), R(-3,1) and T(2,6).

Slope formula

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

The product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is -1.

Slope of GR is

\text{Slope of GR}=\frac{1-5}{-3-(-6)}=\frac{-4}{3}

Slope of RT is

\text{Slope of RT}=\frac{6-1}{2-(-3)}=\frac{5}{5}=1

Product of slopes of GR and RT is

\frac{-4}{3}\times 1=\frac{-4}{3}\neq -1

Therefore lines GR and RT are not perpendicular to each other and angle R is not a right angle.

Part B:

If vertex T translated by rule

(x,y)\rightarrow(x-1,y-2)

Then the coordinates of T' are

(2,6)\rightarrow(2-1,6-2)

(2,6)\rightarrow(1,4)

Slope of RT' is

\text{Slope of RT'}=\frac{4-1}{1-(-3)}=\frac{3}{4}

Product of slopes of GR and RT' is

\frac{-4}{3}\times \frac{3}{4}=-1

Since the product of slopes is -1, therefore the lines GR and RT' are perpendicular to each other and angle GRT' is a right angle.

] It is claimed that 42% of US college graduates had a mentor in college. For a sample of college graduates in Colorado, it was
Bad White [126]

Answer:

z=\frac{0.480 -0.42}{\sqrt{\frac{0.42(1-0.42)}{1045}}}=3.930  

The p value for this case would be given by:

p_v =P(z>3.930)=0.0000443  

For this case the p value is lower than the significance level so then we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis so then we can conclude that the true proportion is significantly higher than 0.42

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

n=1045 represent the random sample selected

X=502 represent the college graduates with a mentor

\hat p=\frac{502}{1045}=0.480 estimated proportion of college graduates with a mentor

p_o=0.42 is the value that we want to test

z would represent the statistic

p_v represent the p value

Hypothesis to test

We want to test if the true proportion is higher than 0.42, the system of hypothesis are.:  

Null hypothesis:p \leq 0.42  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.42  

The statistic is given by:

z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}} (1)  

Replacing the info we got:

z=\frac{0.480 -0.42}{\sqrt{\frac{0.42(1-0.42)}{1045}}}=3.930  

The p value for this case would be given by:

p_v =P(z>3.930)=0.0000443  

For this case the p value is lower than the significance level so then we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis so then we can conclude that the true proportion is significantly higher than 0.42

Identify the volume of a cone with base area 64π m2 and a height 4 m less than 3 times the radius, rounded to the nearest tenth.
melomori [17]
V=basearea times 1/3 times height
basearea=6<span>4π m2
hmm, they try to make it difficult

basearea=circle=pir^2
pir^2=64pi
divide by pi
r^2=64
sqrt
r=9

h is 4 les than 3 time r
h=-4+3(8)
h=-4+24
h=20

v=1/3*64pi*20=1280pi/3 m^3=1350.4
