Answer:

4ab² + 20b - 3a

Step-by-step explanation:

This question most likely asks us to simplify the expression, as factoring is not possible...

(ab² + 13b - 4a) + (3ab² + a + 7b),

ab² + 13b - 4a + 3ab² + a + 7b,

ab² + 3ab² + 13b + 7b - 4a + a,

Solution : 4ab² + 20b - 3a

e 400 trials in which the assistant maintained a neutral expression, the driver stopped in 229 out of the 400 trials. Find a 95%

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

n = 400

Proportion p = 229/400= 0.5725

For 95% confidence interval we use Z value as 1.96

Std error = 0.025

margin of error = 1.96*0.025

Confidence interval 95% = 0.5725±Margin of error

= (0.524, 0.621)

b) When smiled x becomes 277

p = 0.6925

Std error = 0.023

Margin of error= 1.96*0.023

Confidence interval = (0.647, 0.738)

Smiling increases the chances of stopping since mean and conidence interval bounds are showing increasing trend.

In the diagram below, ST is parallel to PQ. If ST is 4 more than PS,SR = 12, and PQ = 15, find the length of PS. Figures are not

Tpy6a [65]

Since segments ST and PQ are parallel, triangles SRT and PRQ are similar due to the AAA postulate. In general, the ratio between the corresponding sides of two similar triangles is constant; therefore,

$\frac{SR}{PR}=\frac{RT}{RQ}=\frac{TS}{QP}$

Furthermore,

$PS=PR-RS$

Finding PR and RS,

$\begin{gathered} ST=4+PS \\ SR=12 \\ PQ=15 \end{gathered}$

Then,

$\frac{12}{PR}=\frac{TS}{15}$ $\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow\frac{12}{PR}=\frac{4+PS}{15} \\ \Rightarrow\frac{12}{PS+12}=\frac{4+PS}{15} \end{gathered}$

Solving for PS,

$\begin{gathered} 12\cdot15=(PS+12)(PS+4) \\ \Rightarrow180=PS^2+16PS+48 \end{gathered}$

Solve the quadratic equation in terms of PS, as shown below

$\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow PS^2+16PS-132=0 \\ \Rightarrow PS=\frac{-16\pm\sqrt[]{16^2-4(-132)}}{2}=\frac{-16\pm28}{2} \\ \Rightarrow PS=-22,6 \end{gathered}$

And PS is a segment; therefore, it has to be positive.

Hence, the answer is PS=6

The Surface Area of a square pyramid is 3600 ft. The slant height is 80 feet and the base is 20 feet. At most how many 1 foot cu

amm1812

Answer:

10,583 flexible cubes

9915 rigid cubes

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the surface area of a square pyramid is area of base plus perimeter of base multiplied by the slant height

Surface area = A + 1/2·p·s

The volume of the pyramid = 1/3×A×h

Where:

A = Area of the base = 20 × 20 = 400 ft²

h = The height of the pyramid = √((slant height)² - ((base side length)/2)²)

h = √(80² - (20/2)²) = 30·√7

The volume of the pyramid = 1/3*400*30·√7 = 4000·√7 ft³ = 10,583.005 ft³

If the cubes are flexible, approximately 10,583 cubes

For rigid cubes we have

Given that the height of the pyramid = 30·√7

The slope of the pyramid = 30·√7/10 = 3·√7

So an increase in height of 1 foot gives a reduction in width of 2/(3·√7)

The bottom can hold 400 cubes

The next layer can hold 19×19 = 361

3rd 361

4th 361

5th 324

6th 324

7th 324

8th 324

9th

Continuing, we get a total of about 9915 rigid cubes in the pyramid.

An animal shelter houses dogs, cats, and rabbits. there are 126 animals at the shelter. of the animals, 1/3 are cats. three four

viva [34]

Given that an animal shelter houses three kinds of animals: dogs, cats and rabbits and it has a total of 126 animals. 1/3 of the animals are cats. This means, 1/3 of 126 is 42. So there are 42 cats. 3/4 of the remaining animals, which is 84 are dogs. So 3/4 of 84 is 63. So there are 63 dogs. 63 dogs plus 42 cats is 105 animals. 126 minus 105 is 21. Therefore, there are only 21 rabbits. Hope this helps.
