A center-pivot sprinkler system operated by Colorado Land & Agriculture, Inc., is used to water the alfalfa in a circular fi

eld. The circumference of the field is 2 miles. As the sprinkler travels in an arc around the field, sprinkler nozzles get clogged and must be cleaned. The distance around the circumference of the field from the starting point to the point when a nozzle becomes clogged is the value of a random variable X that is uniformly distributed over the 2-mile circumference of the field. As a part of a simulation comparing farm maintenance policies, an input is the point at which sprinklers become clogged. If a random number 0.724 is generated, at what distance from the starting point would we simulate that a nozzle becomes clogged? Give your answer to 3 decimal places.

Answer:

The answer is "1.448 miles".

Step-by-step explanation:

X= The distance to both the nozzle clogged from of the starting point.

X \sim Uniform(0,2) miles.

They are simulating the random number Y=0.724, and the Y has both a distribution uniform(0,1). Therefore 2Y is distributed evenly (0.2). And They model the clogging of its nozzle at 2Y=1.448 miles

Answer: 30x\sqrt{2y}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sqrt{6x} x \sqrt{15xy} x \sqrt{20}

This can also be written as :

\sqrt{6x.15xy.20}

= \sqrt{1800x^{2}y}

which could be written as :

\sqrt{900x^{2}} x \sqrt{2y}

= 30x\sqrt{2y}

Please help me with this!!!!!
Orlov [11]

Answer:

C. ΔJKL, in which m∠J = 15° and m∠L = 45°

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, let's find the missing angle of the triangle:

180 - 120 - 15 = 45°

That means a solution should have at least 2 solutions from the solution set (15 , 45, 120)

C, is the correct choice.

If my answer is incorrect, pls correct me!

The varsity basketball team started selling T-shirts online in 1994. The number of T-shirts sold online, s, is modeled by the gr
-Dominant- [34]

(PART-A): s-intercept in this case represents the y-intercept of the graph, whereas the t-intercept in this case represents the x-intercept of the graph.

Always remember that y-intercept represents the value of y where the curve (or line) crosses the y-axis, and x-intercept represents the value of x where the curve (or line) crosses the x-axis.

In the graph attached with the question, at point (0,6) the curve crosses the y-axis. Therefore, the <em>y-intercept (s-intercept) in this case is 6</em>. It means that in year 2000 (t=0), 6 hundred shirts were sold.

However, there is no point on the graph where the curve crosses the x-axis, meaning there is <em>no x-intercept (t-intercept)</em>. It means that there is <em>not</em> a single year when the number of shirts sold is 0.


(PART B): As you can see in the graph (attached with the question) that the <em>f(t)</em> is increasing (exponentially) with the increase in <em>t. </em>Therefore, we can safely say that as t increases without bound, the f(t) increases (also). In this context, it means that the sale of shirts increases as the years go by. Hence, the correct blank is "increases."


(PART C): The average rate of change is actually the slope. To find the slope, we can use the following formula:

slope = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} --- (X)

Given points: (5, 12.5) and (7, 22). Plug the values in equation (X),

slope = \frac{22-12.5}{7-5} = 4.75

Hence, the average rate of change for the function between t=5 and t=7 is 4.75 (answer).


(PART D): This part is bit tricky. Therefore, read the explanation carefully!

You can see in the graph that number of Shirts sold is in <em>hundreds. </em>It means that 1 unit (of y-axis in a graph) represents 100 shirts. Therefore, as in the question it is mentioned that there are 1000 T-shirts sold, it will become 10 units (since 10*100 = 1000). So, the function g(t) will become the following:

g(t) = f(t) + 10 --- (Y)

Why did I add f(t)? Because in the question, the word "<em>and</em>" is underlined. It means that g(t) represents not only 1000 T-shirts (10*100 = 1000) sold at the basketball games each year, but it also has the number of T-shirts sold ONLINE, which is f(t).

Now insert f(t) in (Y) and solve:

g(t) = f(t) + 10\\g(t) = (1.5)^t + 5+ 10\\g(t) = (1.5)^t + 15

Hence, g(t) is (1.5)^t + 15
