Since

$3^2=9,\quad 4^2=16$

The square root of 11 is somewhere between 3 and 4. In order to round it to the nearest tenth, we have to try all numbers between 3 and 4 with one decimal digit, and see which is closest to 11 when squared. We have

$\begin{array}{c|c}n&n^2\\3&9\\3.1&9.61\\3.2&10.24\\3.3&10.89\\3.4&11.56\end{array}\right]$

So, the square root of 11 is somewhere between 3.3 and 3.4.

Answer:

y = -2x+11

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have a slope and a line, we can use the slope intercept form of a line

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

where (x1,y1) is the point and m is the slope.

Substitute in what we know

y-5 = -2 (x-3)

We want it in slope intercept form which is y = mx+b

Distribute the -2

y-5 = -2x+6

Add 5 to each side

y-5+5 = -2x +11

What is the equation of the quadratic graph with a focus of (-4,17/8) and a directrix of y=15/8

Temka [501]

So hmm notice the graph below

based on where the focus point is at, and the directrix, then, the parabola is opening upwards, meaning the squared variable is the "x"

$\bf \begin{array}{llll}
(y-{{ k}})^2=4{{ p}}(x-{{ h}}) \\\\
\boxed{(x-{{ h}})^2=4{{ p}}(y-{{ k}})}\\
\end{array}
\qquad 
\begin{array}{llll}
vertex\ ({{ h}},{{ k}})\\\\
{{ p}}=\textit{distance from vertex to }\\
\qquad \textit{ focus or directrix}
\end{array}$

now, keep in mind, the vertex is at coordinates h,k
the vertex itself is half-way between the focus and directrix
the directrix is at y=15/8 and the focus is at y=17/8
so, half-way will then be $\bf \cfrac{17}{8}-\cfrac{15}{8}=\cfrac{2}{8}\iff \cfrac{1}{4}$

well, so is 1/4 between the focus point and the directrix, half of that is 1/8
so, if you move from the focus point 1/8 down, you'll get the y-coordinate for the vertex, or 1/8 up from the directrix, since the vertex is equidistant to either

what's the "p" distance? well, we just found it, is just 1/8

so, the x-coordinate is obviously -4, get the y-coordinate by 17/8 - 1/8 or 15/8 + 1/8

and plug your values (x-h)² = 4p(y-k) and then solve for "y", that's the equation of the quadratic

azamat

Answer:

6.9%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a university class has 26 students: 12 are art majors, 9 are history majors, 5 and are nursing majors, and the professor is planning to select two of the students for a demonstration, where the first student will be selected at random, and then the second student will be selected at random from the remaining students, to determine what is the probability that the first student selected is a history major and the second student is a nursing major the following calculations must be performed:

26 = 100

9 = X

9 x 100/26 = X

900/26 = X

34.61 = X

25 = 100

5 = X

500/25 = X

20 = X

0.2 x 0.3461 = X

0.069 = X

Thus, the probability that the first student selected is a history major and the second student is a nursing major is 6.9%.

Eduardo has a recipe that uses 2/3 cup of flour for each batch. If he makes 4 batches, how many cups of flour will he need? How

34kurt

Answer:

4 batches: $2\frac{2}{3}$ cups

7 batches: $4\frac{2}{3}$ cups

Step-by-step explanation:

If he uses 2/3 cup of flour for each batch, then that is 2/3 four times, or 2/3 · 4.

$\frac{2}{3}$ × $\frac{4}{1}$

= $\frac{8}{3}$ = $2\frac{2}{3}$

If he makes three more, than that will be 7 batches in total. We can multiply 2/3 by 3 to find out how much will be needed for those extra three, then add that product to $2\frac{2}{3}$ .

$\frac{2}{3}$ × $\frac{3}{1}$
