Increase 14187.13 by 4.5%

1 answer:

7 0

If you increase a number by 4.5%, then you're adding 4.5% of that number to 100% of that number. So essentially you just multiply 14187.13 by 104.5%, or 1.045 to find the answer, which is 14,825.55.

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (1,-5) and (3,5)?

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

a) 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Put them into slope intercept form AKA y=mx+b: -5=m1+b and 5=m3+b

Subtract the equations to get -10=-2m

Divide both sides by two to get: 5=m

Hope this helps! (^-^)

The playing time X of jazz CDs has the normal distribution with mean 52 and standard deviation 7; N(52, 7).

natita [175]

Answer:

68% of jazz CDs play between 45 and 59 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is: The playing time X of jazz CDs has the normal distribution with mean 52 and standard deviation 7; N(52, 7).

According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, what percentage of jazz CDs play between 45 and 59 minutes?

Let X = playing time of jazz CDs

SO, X ~ Normal( $\mu=52, \sigma^{2} =7$ )

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

Z = $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ ~ N(0,1)

Now, according to the 68-95-99.7 rule, it is stated that;

68% of the data values lie within one standard deviation points from the mean.

95% of the data values lie within two standard deviation points from the mean.

99.7% of the data values lie within three standard deviation points from the mean.

Here, we have to find the percentage of jazz CDs play between 45 and 59 minutes;

For 45 minutes, z-score is = $\frac{45-52}{7}$ = -1

For 59 minutes, z-score is = $\frac{59-52}{7}$ = 1

This means that our data values lie within 1 standard deviation points, so it is stated that 68% of jazz CDs play between 45 and 59 minutes.

A pumpkin is launched directly upwards at 72 feet per second from a platform 24 feet high. The pumpkins height, h, at time t sec

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer: Maximum height = 105 feet

And, It takes 9/4 seconds to reach that point.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the given function that shows the height of the pumpkin,

$h(t) = -16t^2 + 72t + 24$ --------(1)

Where t is the time in second.

Differentiating equation (1) with respect to t,

We get, $h'(t) = -32 t + 72$

Again differentiating above equation with respect to t,

We get, $h''(t) = -32$

For maximum or minimum, $h'(t) = 0$

$- 32 t + 72 = 0$

$32 t = 72$

$t = \frac{9}{4}$

At t = 9/4 , h''(t) = Negative value,

Therefore, At t = 9/4 seconds, h(t) is maximum,

And, the maximum value is,

$h(\frac{9}{4} ) = -16(\frac{9}{4})^2 + 72(\frac{9}{4}) + 24$

$h(\frac{9}{4} ) = -16(\frac{81}{16})+ 72(\frac{9}{4}) + 24$

$h(\frac{9}{4} ) = -81 + 162 + 24=105$

Therefore, the maximum height of the pumpkin is 105 feet at 9/4 seconds
