Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Lets Combine Like Terms. The only combineable terms are 8 and 8. So if we combine them they will equal 16. And we will have (2n+2)=16

2. Let's isolate the variable. We can do this by subtracting 2 from both sides. This will come out to 2n+14.

3. Let's further isolate the variable. We can do this by dividing both sides by two, which will finally come out to n=7

If 180° < α < 270°, cos⁡ α = −817, 270° < β < 360°, and sin⁡ β = −45, what is cos⁡ (α + β)?

eduard

Answer:

$cos(\alpha+\beta)=-\frac{84}{85}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

$cos(\alpha+\beta)=cos(\alpha)*cos(\beta)-sin(\alpha)*sin(\beta)$

Remember the identity

$cos^{2} (x)+sin^2(x)=1$

step 1

Find the value of $sin(\alpha)$

we have that

The angle alpha lie on the III Quadrant

The values of sine and cosine are negative

$cos(\alpha)=-\frac{8}{17}$

Find the value of sine

$cos^{2} (\alpha)+sin^2(\alpha)=1$

substitute

$(-\frac{8}{17})^{2}+sin^2(\alpha)=1$

$sin^2(\alpha)=1-\frac{64}{289}$

$sin^2(\alpha)=\frac{225}{289}$

$sin(\alpha)=-\frac{15}{17}$

step 2

Find the value of $cos(\beta)$

we have that

The angle beta lie on the IV Quadrant

The value of the cosine is positive and the value of the sine is negative

$sin(\beta)=-\frac{4}{5}$

Find the value of cosine

$cos^{2} (\beta)+sin^2(\beta)=1$

substitute

$(-\frac{4}{5})^{2}+cos^2(\beta)=1$

$cos^2(\beta)=1-\frac{16}{25}$

$cos^2(\beta)=\frac{9}{25}$

$cos(\beta)=\frac{3}{5}$

step 3

Find cos⁡ (α + β)

$cos(\alpha+\beta)=cos(\alpha)*cos(\beta)-sin(\alpha)*sin(\beta)$

we have

$cos(\alpha)=-\frac{8}{17}$

$sin(\alpha)=-\frac{15}{17}$

$sin(\beta)=-\frac{4}{5}$

$cos(\beta)=\frac{3}{5}$

substitute

$cos(\alpha+\beta)=-\frac{8}{17}*\frac{3}{5}-(-\frac{15}{17})*(-\frac{4}{5})$

$cos(\alpha+\beta)=-\frac{24}{85}-\frac{60}{85}$

$cos(\alpha+\beta)=-\frac{84}{85}$

What is the base 8 representation of the number 11100111(2)

kondor19780726 [428]

Remark

You could convert base two to base 10 and then convert base 10 to base 8. That's the long way. The procedure below is the short way.

Step One

Write the base 2 number in groups of 3 starting from the right and going left

11 100 111

Step Two

Convert the base 2 numbers in groups of 3 to base 8. The largest result will be a 7

11 = 2*1 + 1 = 2 + 1 = 3

100 = 1*2^2 = 4

111 = 1*2^2 + 1*2 + 1 = 7

Step Three

Read the answer going down.

347 is the answer

Answer

347(8) = C

How do I solve these problems? ln(x) = 5.6 + ln(7.5) and log(x) = 5.6 - log(7.5)

SOVA2 [1]

Use the rules of logarithms and the rules of exponents.

... ln(ab) = ln(a) + ln(b)

... e^ln(a) = a

... (a^b)·(a^c) = a^(b+c)

_____

1) Use the second rule and take the antilog.

... e^ln(x) = x = e^(5.6 + ln(7.5))

... x = (e^5.6)·(e^ln(7.5)) . . . . . . use the rule of exponents

... x = 7.5·e^5.6 . . . . . . . . . . . . use the second rule of logarithms

... x ≈ 2028.2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . use your calculator (could do this after the 1st step)

2) Similar to the previous problem, except base-10 logs are involved.

... x = 10^(5.6 -log(7.5)) . . . . . take the antilog. Could evaluate now.

... = (1/7.5)·10^5.6 . . . . . . . . . . of course, 10^(-log(7.5)) = 7.5^-1 = 1/7.5

... x ≈ 53,080.96

What is the variance of a portfolio invested 21 percent each in a and b and 58 percent in c?

Given the following information:

$\begin{tabular}
{|p{1.5cm}|p{1.5cm}|p{1.2cm}|p{1.2cm}|p{1.2cm}|}
\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.5cm}|}{State of economy}\multicolumn{1}{|p{2.6cm}|}{Probability of State of economy}\multicolumn{3}{|p{4.8cm}|}{Rate of Return if State Occurs}\\[1ex] 
\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.5cm}|}{}\multicolumn{1}{|p{2.6cm}|}{}\multicolumn{1}{|c|}{Stock A}&StockB&Stock C\\[2ex]
\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.5cm}|}{Boom}\multicolumn{1}{|p{2.6cm}|}{0.66}\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.27cm}|}{0.09}&0.03&0.34\\
\end{tabular}$
$\begin{tabular}
{|p{1.5cm}|p{1.5cm}|p{1.2cm}|p{1.2cm}|p{1.2cm}|}
\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.5cm}|}{Bust}\multicolumn{1}{|p{2.6cm}|}{0.34}\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.27cm}|}{0.23}&0.29&-0.14\\
\end{tabular}$

Part A:

The expected return on an equally weighted portfolio of these three stocks is given by:

$0.66[0.33 (0.09) + 0.33 (0.03) + 0.33(0.34)] \\ +0.34[0.33 (0.23) + 0.33(0.29) +0.33(-0.14)] \\ \\ =0.66(0.0297 + 0.0099 + 0.1122)+0.34(0.0759+0.0957-0.0462) \\ \\ =0.66(0.1518)+0.34(0.1254)=0.1002+0.0426=0.1428=\bold{14.28\%}$

Part B:

Value of a portfolio invested 21 percent each in A and B and 58 percent in C is given by

For boom: 0.21(0.09) + 0.21(0.03) + 0.58(0.34) = 0.0189 + 0.0063 + 0.1972 = 0.2224 or 22.24%.

For bust: = 0.21(0.23) + 0.21(0.29) + 0.58(-0.14) = 0.0483 + 0.0609 - 0.0812 = 0.028 or 2.8%

Expected return = 0.66(0.2224) + 0.34(0.028) = 0.1468 + 0.00952 = 0.1563 or 15.63%

The variance is given by

$0.66(0.2224-0.1563)^2+0.34(0.028-0.1563)^2 \\ \\ =0.66(0.0661)^2+0.34(-0.1283)^2=0.66(0.00437)+0.34(0.01646) \\ \\ =0.00288+0.0056=\bold{0.00848}$

A community center is serving a free meal to senior citizens. The center plans to feed 700 people in 4 hours. Write and solve an

Arada [10]

A. If the center plans to feed 700 people in 4 hours, then in order to find the average number of people the center is planning to feed each hour is 700/4 which is equal 175. So, the center is planning to feed 175 people per hour.

B. If during the first hour and a half, the center fed 270 people, find the remaining people to feed left: 700 - 270 = 430 people left to feed.
