Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Data:

total distance= 850 miles

gas tank holds gas= 15 gallons

mileage = 72/3.2 miles/gallon

if

72 miles uses= 3.2 gallon

then

850 miles uses= x gallons

by cross-multiplication we get

72x=3.2(850)

x=37.778

i.e. 850 miles will use 37.7778 gallon of gas

Asgas tank holds 15 gallons

number of times gas tank is used up= 37.3/15

                                                            = 2.518

rounding off

number of times gas tank is used up=3

As they filled the gas tank at the start of the road trip, hence 3-1=2

ADDITIONAL STOPS FOR GAS WILL THEY NEED TO MAKE TO GET TO THEIR DESTINATION =2 !

Drag the tiles to the boxes to form correct pairs. Not all tiles will be used.
KatRina [158]

Answer:

# x² + y² - 4x + 12y - 20 = 0 ⇒ (x - 2)² + (y + 6)² = 60

# 3x² + 3y² + 12x + 18y - 15 = 0 ⇒ (x + 2)² + (y + 3)² = 18

# 2x² + 2y² - 24x - 16y - 8 = 0 ⇒ (x - 6)² + (y - 4)² = 56

# x² + y² + 2x - 12y - 9 = 0 ⇒ (x + 1)² + (y - 6)² = 46

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets study the problem to solve it

- Use the terms of x and y in the general form to find the standard form

∵ x² + y² - 4x + 12y - 20 = 0

- Use the term x term

∵ -4x ÷ 2 = -2x ⇒ x × -2

∴ (x - 2)²

- Use the term y term

∵ 12y ÷ 2 = 6y ⇒ y × 6

∴ (y + 6)²

∵ (-2)² + (6)² + 20 = 4 + 36 + 20 = 60

∴ x² + y² - 4x + 12y - 20 = 0 ⇒ (x - 2)² + (y + 6)² = 60

∵ x² + y² + 6x - 8y + 10 = 0

- Use the term x term

∵ 6x ÷ 2 = 3x ⇒ x × 3

∴ (x + 3)²

- Use the term y term

∵ -8y ÷ 2 = -4y ⇒ y × -4

∴ (y - 4)²

∵ (3)² + (-4)² - 10 = 9 + 16 - 10 = 5

∴ x² + y² + 6x - 8y + 10 = 0 ⇒ (x + 3)² + (y - 4)² = 5 ⇒ not in answer

∵ 3x² + 3y² + 12x + 18y - 15 = 0 ⇒ divide all terms by 3

∴ x² + y² + 4x + 6y - 5 = 0

- Use the term x term

∵ 4x ÷ 2 = 2x ⇒ x × 2

∴ (x + 2)²

- Use the term y term

∵ 6y ÷ 2 = 3y ⇒ y × 3

∴ (y + 3)²

∵ (2)² + (3)² + 5 = 4 + 9 + 5 = 18

∴ 3x² + 3y² + 12x + 18y - 15 = 0 ⇒ (x + 2)² + (y + 3)² = 18

∵ 5x² + 5y² - 10x + 20y - 30 = 0 ⇒ divide both sides by 5

∴ x² + y² - 2x + 4y - 6 = 0

- Use the term x term

∵ -2x ÷ 2 = -x ⇒ x × -1

∴ (x - 1)²

- Use the term y term

∵ 4y ÷ 2 = 2y ⇒ y × 2

∴ (y + 2)²

∵ (-1)² + (2)² + 6 = 1 + 4 + 6 = 11

∴ 5x² + 5y² - 10x + 20y - 30 = 0 ⇒ (x - 1)² + (y + 2)² = 11 ⇒ not in answer

∵ 2x² + 2y² - 24x - 16y - 8 = 0 ⇒ divide both sides by 2

∴ x² + y² - 12x - 8y - 4 = 0

- Use the term x term

∵ -12x ÷ 2 = -6x ⇒ x × -6

∴ (x - 6)²

- Use the term y term

∵ -8y ÷ 2 = -4y ⇒ y × -4

∴ (y - 4)²

∵ (-6)² + (-4)² + 4 = 36 + 16 + 4 = 56

∴ 2x² + 2y² - 24x - 16y - 8 = 0 ⇒ (x - 6)² + (y - 4)² = 56

∵ x² + y² + 2x - 12y - 9 = 0

- Use the term x term

∵ 2x ÷ 2 = x ⇒ x × 1

∴ (x + 1)²

- Use the term y term

∵ -12y ÷ 2 = -6y ⇒ y × -6

∴ (y - 6)²

∵ (1)² + (-6)² + 9 = 1 + 36 + 9 = 46

∴ x² + y² + 2x - 12y - 9 = 0 ⇒ (x + 1)² + (y - 6)² = 46

What is the square root of -1​
Romashka [77]

Answer:

i

Step-by-step explanation:

Now, before you think I'm just stealing points, let me explain. The square root of a number is the number that, if you multiply it by itself, it equals that number. The square root of 4 is 2, because 2 * 2 = 4.

Also, a negative number times another negative number, is a positive number. -2 * -2 = 4

With both of those true, then what number could be multiplied by itself to equal a negative number? i.

i is a weird number that I don't really know how to explain all that well. I am sorry, but that is all that I can give you. i is very complex and has various different equivalents, and different meanings, but i is equal to \sqrt{-1}.

Hope that this helps!

A researcher compares two compounds (1 and 2) used in the manufacture of car tires that are designed to reduce braking distances
wariber [46]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The objective of this experiment is to compare two compounds, designed to reduce braking distance, used in tire manufacturing to prove if the braking distance of SUV's equipped with tires made with compound 1 is shorter than the braking distance of SUV's equipped with tires made with compound 2.

So you have 2 independent populations, SUV's equipped with tires made using compound 1 and SUV's equipped with tires made using compound 2.

Two samples of 81 braking tests are made and the braking distance was measured each time, the study variables are determined as:

X₁: Braking distance of an SUV equipped with tires made with compound one.

Its sample mean is X[bar]₁= 69 feet

And the Standard deviation S₁= 10.4 feet

X₂: Braking distance of an SUV equipped with tires made with compound two.

Its sample mean is X[bar]₂= 71 feet

And the Standard deviation S₂= 7.6 feet

We don't have any information on the distribution of the study variables, nor the sample data to test it, but since both sample sizes are large enough n₁ and n₂ ≥ 30 we can apply the central limit theorem and approximate the distribution of both variables sample means to normal.

The researcher's hypothesis, as mentioned before, is that the braking distance using compound one is less than the distance obtained using compound 2, symbolically: μ₁ < μ₂

The statistical hypotheses are:

H₀: μ₁ ≥ μ₂

H₁: μ₁ < μ₂

α: 0.05

The statistic to use to compare these two populations is a pooled Z test

Z= \frac{(X[bar]_1-X[bar]_2)-(Mu_1-Mu_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{S^2_1}{n_1} +\frac{S^2_2}{n_2} } }

Z ≈ N(0;1)

Z_{H_0}= \frac{69-71-0}{\sqrt{\frac{108.16}{81} +\frac{57.76}{81} } }= -1.397

The rejection region if this hypothesis test is one-tailed to the right, so you'll reject the null hypothesis to small values of the statistic. The critical value for this test is:

Z_{\alpha  } = Z_{0.05}= -1.648

Decision rule:

If Z_{H_0} > -1.648 , then you do not reject the null hypothesis.

If Z_{H_0} ≤ -1.648 , then you reject the null hypothesis.

Since the statistic value is greater than the critical value, the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis.

At a 5% significance level, you can conclude that the average braking distance of SUV's equipped with tires manufactured used compound 1 is greater than the average braking distance of SUV's equipped with tires manufactured used compound 2.

I hope you have a SUPER day!
