If an average person in the United States throws away 4.5 × 10² g of trash per day and the number of persons is <span>3.2×10^6, then the mass of trash thrown away in United States would be 1.44 x 10^9 grams. This is obtained by multiplying the mass of trash thrown by one person to the number of persons in the U.S.</span>

The earth has an average diameter of 12.800km. If you walked 24 hours a day, 5 days a week (and if you could walk on water)at a
Dimas [21]
1) Circumference of Earth: Diameter x π → 12,800 x π = 40,212.39 km 

2) time in Hour = distance/speed → distance = 40,212.39 and speed = 2 Mi/h 

1st: convert miles into km : 1 mile = 1.609344 km and 2 miles = 3.218688 km
2nd: convert speed into km/h → speed = 3.218688 km/h
And time in hour = 40,212.39 / 3.218688 → time = 12,493 hours  OR in days:
12,493 / 24 = 521 days (OR 104 weeks, including 2 days of rest)

Classify the triangle with side lengths 11 cm, 30 cm, and 39 cm as acute, right, or obtuse​
Ahat [919]

Answer:

This triangle is a obtuse traingle.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, it is impossible that this triangle is actute since the sides are different length.

Right is also not possible ( in this case ) because there are two pretty far sides.

30, 39

A obtuse triangle have a short side of 11 cm pointing top right and a side of 30 cm pointing directly to the right and the 39 cm side connecting the ends of the other sides.

                                        \                   Third side ( 39 cm , the one connecting

First side ( 11 cm )              \                   the ends of side 1 and 2)

                                            \______________

                                               Second side ( 30 cm )

A researcher was testing the number of popcorn kernels that popped out of a mini bag of 100 kernels after being cooked for the s
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The percentage of the bag that should have popped 96 kernels or more is 2.1%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>X</em> can be defined as the number of popcorn kernels that popped out of a mini bag.

The mean is, <em>μ</em> = 72 and the standard deviation is, <em>σ</em> = 12.

Assume that the population of the number of popcorn kernels that popped out of a mini bag follows a Normal distribution.

Compute the probability that a bag popped 96 kernels or more as follows:

Apply continuity correction:

P( X\geq 96)=P( X>96+0.50)

                 =P( X>96.50)\\=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{96.50-72}{12})\\=P(Z>2.04)\\=1-P(Z

*Use a <em>z</em>-table.

The probability that a bag popped 96 kernels or more is 0.021.

The percentage is, 0.021 × 100 = 2.1%.

Thus, the percentage of the bag that should have popped 96 kernels or more is 2.1%.

Literal equations 2x-3y=8 solve for y
vichka [17]
2x-3y = 8

Add 3y on both sides

2x = 8 + 3y

Subtract 8 on both sides

3y = 2x - 8

Divide 3 on both sides

y= \frac{2}{3}x- \frac{8}{3}

Find a compact form for generating functions of the sequence 1, 8,27,... , k^3
pantera1 [17]

This sequence has generating function

F(x)=\displaystyle\sum_{k\ge0}k^3x^k

(if we include k=0 for a moment)

Recall that for |x|, we have

\displaystyle\frac1{1-x}=\sum_{k\ge0}x^k

Take the derivative to get

\displaystyle\frac1{(1-x)^2}=\sum_{k\ge0}kx^{k-1}=\frac1x\sum_{k\ge0}kx^k

\implies\dfrac x{(1-x)^2}=\displaystyle\sum_{k\ge0}kx^k

Take the derivative again:

\displaystyle\frac{(1-x)^2+2x(1-x)}{(1-x)^4}=\sum_{k\ge0}k^2x^{k-1}=\frac1x\sum_{k\ge0}k^2x^k

\implies\displaystyle\frac{x+x^2}{(1-x)^3}=\sum_{k\ge0}k^2x^k

Take the derivative one more time:

\displaystyle\frac{(1+2x)(1-x)^3+3(x+x^2)(1-x)^2}{(1-x)^6}=\sum_{k\ge0}k^3x^{k-1}=\frac1x\sum_{k\ge0}k^3x^k

\implies\displaystyle\frac{x+4x^3+x^3}{(1-x)^4}=\sum_{k\ge0}k^3x^k

so we have

\boxed{F(x)=\dfrac{x+4x^3+x^3}{(1-x)^4}}
