The steering wheel on Becky’s car has a 16-inch diameter, and its center is at (0, 0). Point X at the top of the wheel has coord

inates (0, 8). To turn left off her street, Becky must rotate the steering wheel by 300°. Find the coordinates of X when the steering wheel is rotated. Round to the nearest tenth.

Rotating the steering wheel left 300 degrees is the same as turning it right 60 degrees.  Well, not if you're driving, but the same as far as where the points on the wheel end up.

In polar coordinates X is P(8, 90°), which is how I'll write magnitude 8, angle 90 degrees.  In rectangular coordinates that's (8 cos 90°, 8 sin 90°) = (0,8) as we're told.

After rotation by 300° the angle of X is 90° + 300° = 390° so our coordinates are

P(8, 390°) = (8 cos 390°, 8 sin 390°) = (8 cos 30°, 8 sin 30°)

= (8 (√3/2), 8 (1/2)) = (4√3, 4)

Answer:  (4√3, 4)

I'll leave the rounding to you; I hate ruining a nice exact answer with an approximation.

As we see we would have reached the same 30° point if we had rotated -60° instead of 300°.

Mode is the number that shows up the most

in this case, it is 71,500 which shows up twice, one more than any of the other numbers

hope this helps

The Widget Company is planning to produce widgets. The company has rented space for its manufacturing operation at $4,000 per mo
Helen [10]
I'll try to explain in the simplest way possible:

Total cost for a single widget: $32 + $44 = $76 for one widget.

So, since we know the cost of one widget is $76, then the price of 350 widgets would be = $76 x 350 = $26,600.

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

B. The width of the confidence interval would be smaller.

Step-by-step explanation:

By reducing the confidence level from 99% to 95%, the student assumes that there is more uncertainty about the new confidence interval than the previous one. That, being said, since the results aren't as certain, the confidence interval is widened towards a central average point because the new interval isn't as accurate.

Therefore, the answer is B. The width of the confidence interval would be smaller.

It makes the addition easier if you combine like terms like the two 1/2s and then make them all have the denominator of 12 (changing the numerators to equal it out)
