Answer:

q(-1)=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

1) flip the equation:

4x+7=-1

2) subtract 7 from both sides:

4x=-8

3) divide both sides by 4:

x=-2

Statuary Hall is an elliptical room in the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C. The room is also called the Whispering Gall

dalvyx [7]

Answer: a) $\frac{x^{2} }{2352.25 }$ + $\frac{y^{2} }{529}$ = 1

b) The distance of two foci is 85.4 feet

c) Area = 3502.67 square feet

Step-by-step explanation: a) An ellipse has the equation in the form of:

$\frac{x^{2} }{a^{2} }$ + $\frac{y^{2} }{b^{2} }$ = 1, where a is the horizontal axis and b is the vertical axis.

For the Statuary Hall, a = $\frac{97}{2}$ = 48.5 and b = $\frac{46}{2}$ = 23, so the equation will be

$\frac{x^{2} }{2352.25 }$ + $\frac{y^{2} }{529}$ = 1.

b) To determine the distance of the foci, we have to calculate 2c, where c is the distance between one focus and the center of the ellipse. To find c, as a, b and c create a triangle with a as hypotenuse:

$a^{2}$ = $b^{2} + c^{2}$

$c^{2} = a^{2} - b^{2}$

c = $\sqrt{48.5^{2} - 23^{2} }$

c = 42.7

The distance is 2c, so 2·42.7 = 85.4 feet.

The two foci are 85.4 feet apart.

c)The area of an ellipse is given by:

A = a.b.π

A = 48.5 · 23 · 3.14

A = 3502.67 ft²

The area of the floor room is 3502.67ft².

11. The length of a rectangle is three times its width. The perimeter of the

Elenna [48]

Answer: The length of the rectangle is 37.5 inches and the width is 12.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation: The dimensions of the rectangle is not given but we have clues given. The length is given as three times it’s width which means if the width is W, then the length would be given as 3W (three times the width). Also the perimeter is given as 100 inches and the formula for the perimeter is;

Perimeter = 2(L + W)

We can now insert the known values as follows;

100 = 2(3W + W)

100 = 2(4W)

100 = 8W

Divide both sides of the equation by 8

12.5 = W

Having calculated the width as 12.5 inches, the length now becomes

L = 3W

L = 3 x 12.5

L = 37.5

Hence the length is 37.5 inches and the width is 12.5 inches

A Gallup Poll in July 2015 found that 26% of the 675 coffee drinkers in the sample said they were addicted to coffee. Gallup ann

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the percent of all coffee drinkers who would say they are addicted to coffee is between 21% and 31%.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

The margin of error is:

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

A confidence interval has two bounds, the lower and the upper

Lower bound:

$\pi - M$

Upper bound:

$\pi + M$

In this problem, we have that:

$\pi = 0.26, M = 0.05$

Lower bound:

$\pi - M = 0.26 - 0.05 = 0.21$

Upper bound:

$\pi + M = 0.26 + 0.05 = 0.31$

The 95% confidence interval for the percent of all coffee drinkers who would say they are addicted to coffee is between 21% and 31%.

Can someone help with this problem

WARRIOR [948]

35+25=60
y=60

If you add the opposite side values of the triangle (not the one touching the y), you get the value of y). 35+25=y
This works because y+x= 180 and the three angles of a triangle add to 180.
