Answer:

<h2>B. 468</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

a_1=156,\ r=\dfrac{2}{3}

If |r| < 1, then the formula of a sum of an infinite geometric sequence is:

S=\dfrac{a_1}{1-r}

Substitute:

S=\dfrac{156}{1-\frac{2}{3}}=\dfrac{156}{\frac{1}{3}}=156\cdot\dfrac{3}{1}=468

How do I algebraically solve |4x-3|=5√(x+4)
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

|4x-3|=5√(x+4)  ⇔ |4x-3|²=5²(√(x+4))²  and x+4 ≥ 0

                         ⇔ (4x-3)² = 25(x+4)  and x+4 ≥ 0  ( because : /a/² = a²)

                         ⇔16x²-24x+9 = 25x +100  and x+4 ≥ 0

                         ⇔ 16x² -49x - 91 =0 and x+4 ≥ 0 quadratic equation

Δ = (-49)²-4(16)(-91) = 8225

two solution : X1 = (49-√8225)/32  ≅ - 1.3 accept (-1.3+4 ≥ 0)

                     X2 = (49+√8225)/32  ≅4.37 accept (4.37+4 ≥ 0)

Plot and connect the points A (2, -2), B (-4, -4), C (-4, -1), D (-2, 3), E (1, 3), F (2, 5), and find the length of BC.
Paul [167]

Answer:

BC = 3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points:

  • A = (2, -2)
  • B = (-4, -4)
  • C = (-4, -1)
  • D = (-2, 3)
  • E = (1, 3)
  • F = (2, 5)

<u>Plot the points</u> on the coordinate plane (x, y) and connect them in alphabetical order with straight lines (see attached).

From visual inspection of the <u>drawn polygon</u>, we can see that the length of BC is 3 units.

It is fairly simple to calculate the length of BC without plotting the points.

As points B and C have the same x-value, this means that the distance between them is simply the difference between their y-values.

⇒ distance = |-4 - (-1)| = |-3| = 3 units

A study examines the relationship between being a registered nurse (yes/no) and passing a cultural competency exam (yes/no) amon
Leni [432]

Answer:

The appropriate test to determine if there is an association between being a registered nurse and passing a cultural competency exam among a group of 987 randomly selected hospital employees is a:

Chi-square Test.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Chi-Square Test uses either a diagram (like a scatter plot) or a hypothesis test to show the existence of an association between two variables or statistically demonstrate that a relationship exists between the two variables.  Using the computed t-score, the significant association between two categorical variables can be measured and established.

A little brown bat has eaten 1400 mosquitoes. It can eat 900 mosquitoes per hour. Let x be the number of hours it needs to hunt
Nikitich [7]
1400+ 900x= 4100

Subtract 1400 from each side

900x= 2700

Divide each side by 900

X= 3

It needs to eat 3 mosquitos each hour
