In a circle, the measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of the intercepted arc.

m∠XYZ = 68/2 = 34°

Answer:

Option B 34° is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the inscribed angle theorem, the measure of an inscribed angle is half of the intercepted arc.

Here intercepted arc is xz = 68° and inscibed angle is ∠xyz.

Therefore, by theorem,

∠xyz = $\frac{1}{2}$ m(xz)

∠xyz = $\frac{1}{2}$ (68)°

∠xyz = 34°

Option B 34° is the answer.

A company has 8 mechanics and 6 electricians. If an employee is selected at random, what is the probability that they are an ele

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

$Probability = \frac{3}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Electrician = 6

Mechanic = 8

Required

Determine the probability of selecting an electrician

First, we need the total number of employees;

$Total = n(Electrician) + n(Mechanic)$

$Total = 6 + 8$

$Total = 14$

Next, is to determine the required probability using the following formula;

$Probability = \frac{n(Electrician)}{Total}$

$Probability = \frac{6}{14}$

Divide numerator and denominator by 2

$Probability = \frac{3}{7}$

<em>Hence, the probability of selecting an electrician is 3/7</em>

celine mixes raisins and peanuts to make a snack. she uses 0.75 cup raisins for every 0.5 cup peanuts. write a proportion and us

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

6.375 cups of raisins

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of raisins to peanuts is 3:2. This is because 0.5 divided by 2 and then multiplied by 3 is equal to 0.75.

So to find the number of raisins we need to divide the number of peanuts by 2 and then multiply it by 3:

(4.25 ÷ 2) × 3 = 6.375

Prove or disprove (from i=0 to n) sum([2i]^4) <= (4n)^4. If true use induction, else give the smallest value of n that it doe

ddd [48]

Answer:

The statement is true for every n between 0 and 77 and it is false for $n\geq 78$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, observe that, for n=0 and n=1 the statement is true:

For n=0: $\sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4=0 \leq 0=(4n)^4$

For n=1: $\sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4=16 \leq 256=(4n)^4$

From this point we will assume that $n\geq 2$

As we can see, $\sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4=\sum^{n}_{i=0} 16i^4=16\sum^{n}_{i=0} i^4$ and $(4n)^4=256n^4$ . Then,

$\sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4 \leq(4n)^4 \iff \sum^{n}_{i=0} i^4 \leq 16n^4$

Now, we will use the formula for the sum of the first 4th powers:

$\sum^{n}_{i=0} i^4=\frac{n^5}{5} +\frac{n^4}{2} +\frac{n^3}{3}-\frac{n}{30}=\frac{6n^5+15n^4+10n^3-n}{30}$

Therefore:

$\sum^{n}_{i=0} i^4 \leq 16n^4 \iff \frac{6n^5+15n^4+10n^3-n}{30} \leq 16n^4 \\\\ \iff 6n^5+10n^3-n \leq 465n^4 \iff 465n^4-6n^5-10n^3+n\geq 0$

and, because $n \geq 0$ ,

$465n^4-6n^5-10n^3+n\geq 0 \iff n(465n^3-6n^4-10n^2+1)\geq 0 \\\iff 465n^3-6n^4-10n^2+1\geq 0 \iff 465n^3-6n^4-10n^2\geq -1\\\iff n^2(465n-6n^2-10)\geq -1$

Observe that, because $n \geq 2$ and is an integer,

$n^2(465n-6n^2-10)\geq -1 \iff 465n-6n^2-10 \geq 0 \iff n(465-6n) \geq 10\\\iff 465-6n \geq 0 \iff n \leq \frac{465}{6}=\frac{155}{2}=77.5$

In concusion, the statement is true if and only if n is a non negative integer such that $n\leq 77$

So, 78 is the smallest value of n that does not satisfy the inequality.

Note: If you compute $(4n)^4- \sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4$ for 77 and 78 you will obtain:

$(4n)^4- \sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4=53810064$

$(4n)^4- \sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4=-61754992$
