A manager samples the receipts of every fifth person who goes through the line. Out of 50 people, 6 had a mispriced item. If 1,6

00 people go to this store each day, how many people would you expect to have a mispriced item?

8 0

Answer:

48 people

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 4/50 = x/600 do 4x600 and 50 times x

2.50x=2400

3. divide both sides by 50 to get a result of x=48.

For f(x)=4sin(x2) between x=0 and x=3, find the coordinates of all intercepts, critical points, and inflection points to two dec

telo118 [61]

Answer:

Intercepts:

x = 0, y = 0

x = 1.77, y = 0

x = 2.51, y = 0

Critical points:

x = 1.25, y = 4

x = 2.17 , y = -4

x = 2.8, y = 4

Inflection points:

x = 0.81, y = 2.44

x = 1.81, y = -0.54

x = 2.52, y = 0.27

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the intercept by setting f(x) = 0

$4sin(x^2) = 0$

$sin(x^2) = 0$

$x^2 = n\pi$ where n = 0, 1, 2,3, 4, 5,...

$x = \sqrt(n\pi)$

Since we are restricting x between 0 and 3 we can stop at n = 2

So the function f(x) intercepts at y = 0 and x:

x = 0

x = 1.77

x = 2.51

The critical points occur at the first derivative = 0

$f^{'}(x) = 4cos(x^2)2x = 8xcos(x^2) = 0$

$xcos(x^2) = 0$

$x = 0$ or

$cos(x^2) = 0$

$x^2 = \frac{\pi}{2} + n\pi$ where n = 0, 1, 2, 3

$x = \sqrt{\pi(n+1/2)}$

Since we are restricting x between 0 and 3 we can stop at n = 2

So our critical points are at

x = 1.25, $y = f(1.25) = 4sin(1.25^2) = 4$

x = 2.17 , $y = f(2.17) = 4sin(2.17^2) = -4$

x = 2.8, $y = f(2.8) = 4sin(2.8^2) = 4$

For the inflection point, we can take the 2nd derivative and set it to 0

$f^[''}(x) = 8(cos(x^2) - xsin(x^2)2x) = 8cos(x^2) - 16x^2sin(x^2) = 0$

$cos(x^2) = 2x^2sin(x^2)$

$tan(x^2) = \frac{1}{2x^2}$

We can solve this numerically to get the inflection points are at

x = 0.81, $y = f(0.81) = 4sin(0.81^2) = 2.44$

x = 1.81, $y = f(1.81) = 4sin(1.81^2) = -0.54$

x = 2.52, $y = f(2.52) = 4sin(2.52^2) = 0.27$

Find the angle between 0° and 360° that is coterminal with a 443° angle.

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

If you rotate an angle 360 degrees around, your final angle will be facing the same direction

Thus, the coterminal angle is $443^\circ-360^\circ=83^\circ$

Find the coordinates of point X that lies along the directed line segment from Y(-8, 8) to T(-15, -13) and partitions the segmen

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

C. (-13, -7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The location of a point O(x, y) that divides a line AB with location A $(x_1,y_1)$ and B $(x_2,y_2)$ in the ratio m:n is given by:

$x=\frac{m}{m+n} (x_2-x_1)+x_1\\\\y=\frac{m}{m+n} (y_2-y_1)+y_1$

Therefore the coordinates of point X That divides line segment from Y(-8, 8) to T(-15, -13) in the ratio 5:2 is:

$x=\frac{5}{5+2} (-15-(-8))+(-8)\\\\x=\frac{5}{7} (-15+8)-8=\frac{5}{7}(-7)-8=-5-8=-13 \\\\\\y=\frac{5}{5+2} (-13-8)+8\\\\y=\frac{5}{7} (-21)+8=5(-3)+8=-15+8=-7$

Therefore the coordinates of point X is at (-13, -7)
