What is the distance between P(-4,3) and Q(6,1)? Round to the nearest tenth.

Mathematics
1 answer:
dimulka [17.4K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>10.2 units </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be found by using the formula

d =  \sqrt{ ({x1 - x2})^{2} +  ({y1 - y2})^{2}  }  \\

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

P(-4,3) and Q(6,1)

The distance between them is

|PQ|  =  \sqrt{ ({ - 4 - 6})^{2} +  ({3 - 1})^{2}  }  \\  =  \sqrt{ ({ - 10})^{2} +  {2}^{2}  }  \\  =  \sqrt{100 + 4}  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \\  =  \sqrt{104}  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \\  = 2 \sqrt{26}  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:   \\  = 10.1980390271

We have the final answer as

<h3>10.2 units to the nearest tenth</h3>

Hope this helps you

Suppose that the duration of a particular type of criminal trial is known to be normally distributed with a mean of 22 days and
Alika [10]

Answer:

25.5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean number of days (μ) = 22 days

Standard deviation (σ) = 6 days

Z-score for the 72nd percentile (according to tabulated values) = 0.583

The z-score for any number of days, X, is determined by:

z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}

The value of X that is greater than 72% of the trial times is:

0.583=\frac{X-22}{6}\\ X=25.5\ days

Therefore, 72% of all of these types of trials are completed within 25.5 days.

Given that the expression 2x^3 + mx^2 + nx + c leaves the same remainder when divided by x -2 or by x+1 I prove that m+n =-6
Alla [95]

Given:

The expression is:

2x^3+mx^2+nx+c

It leaves the same remainder when divided by x -2 or by x+1.

To prove:

m+n=-6

Solution:

Remainder theorem: If a polynomial P(x) is divided by (x-c), thent he remainder is P(c).

Let the given polynomial is:

P(x)=2x^3+mx^2+nx+c

It leaves the same remainder when divided by x -2 or by x+1. By using remainder theorem, we can say that

P(2)=P(-1)              ...(i)

Substituting x=-1 in the given polynomial.

P(-1)=2(-1)^3+m(-1)^2+n(-1)+c

P(-1)=-2+m-n+c

Substituting x=2 in the given polynomial.

P(2)=2(2)^3+m(2)^2+n(2)+c

P(2)=2(8)+m(4)+2n+c

P(2)=16+4m+2n+c

Now, substitute the values of P(2) and P(-1) in (i), we get

16+4m+2n+c=-2+m-n+c

16+4m+2n+c+2-m+n-c=0

18+3m+3n=0

3m+3n=-18

Divide both sides by 3.

\dfrac{3m+3n}{3}=\dfrac{-18}{3}

m+n=-6

Hence proved.

At a certain university, 42% of the students are women and 18% of the students are engineering majors. Of the engineers, 22% are
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

The probability that the selected person is a woman engineering major is 0.0396.

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion of students at the university who are women is 0.42.

<em>P (W) = 0.42</em>

The proportion of students at the university who are engineering majors is 0.18.

<em>P (E) = 0.18</em>

The proportion of engineering majors that are women is 0.22.

<em>P (W|E) = 0.22</em>

The proportion of students at the university that are woman and engineering major is:

P (W|E)=\frac{P(W\cap E)}{P(E)} \\P(W\cap E)=P(W|E)\times P(E)\\= 0.18\times0.22\\=0.0396

Thus, the probability that the selected person is a woman engineering major is 0.0396.
