2.60

$\frac{2.60}{4} = \frac{13}{20} \times 5 = 3.25$

so 5 pounds of pepper would cost 3.25

Please help!! x = 2 - 3 cos t, y = 1 + 4 sin t in rectangular form? thank you! :)

Answer:

$\frac{(x-2)^2}{9}+\frac{(y-1)^2}{16}=1$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x=2-3\cos(t)$

$y=1+4\sin(t)$

Let's solve for $\cos(t)$ in the first equation and then solve for $\sin(t)$ in the second equation.

I will then use the following identity to get right of the parameter, $t$ :

$\cos^2(t)+\sin^2(t)=1$ (Pythagorean Identity).

Let's begin with $x=2-3\cos(t)$ .

Subtract 2 on both sides:

$x-2=-3\cos(t)$

Divide both sides by -3:

$\frac{x-2}{-3}=\cos(t)$

Now time for the second equation, $y=1+4\sin(t)$ .

Subtract 1 on both sides:

$y-1=4\sin(t)$

Divide both sides by 4:

$\frac{y-1}{4}=\sin(t)$

Now let's plug it into our Pythagorean Identity:

$\cos^2(t)+\sin^2(t)=1$

$\frac{x-2}{-3})^2+(\frac{y-1}{4})^2=1$

$\frac{(x-2)^2}{(-3)^2}+\frac{(y-1)^2}{4^2}=1$

$\frac{(x-2)^2}{9}+\frac{(y-1)^2}{16}=1$

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The population in the study are those male university graduates who have a white collar job.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a common statistics practice, when we want to study something from a population, we find a sample of this population.

For example:

I want to estimate the proportion of New York state residents who are Buffalo Bills fans. So i ask, lets say, 1000 randomly selected New York state residents wheter they are Buffalo Bills fans, and expand this to the entire population of New York State residents.

In this problem, we have that:

Sample of 1172 male university graduates who have a white collar job and asks whether or not they had received a raise atnbsp work nbspduring the past 4 months.

What is the population in the study?

The sample is of male university graduates who have a white collar job.

So the population in the study are those male university graduates who have a white collar job.
