Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

When a secant and a tangent are drawn to a circle from a point outside the circle, the lengths are related this way:

The square of the length of the tangent equals the product of the length of the secant and the length of the segment of the secant outside the circle.

(x + 2)² = x(x + 5)

x² + 4x + 4 = x² + 5x

x = 4

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

By intersecting tangent and secant theorem:

{(x + 2)}^{2}  = x(x + 5) \\  \\  {x}^{2}  + 4x + 4 =  {x}^{2}  + 5x \\  \\ 4x + 4 = 5x \\  \\ 4 = 5x - 4x \\  \\ 4 = x \\  \\ x = 4

Tammy's home cost her S184,000. She lives in an area with a lively real estate market, and her hormincreases in value by 3.5%
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

  • D. $103800

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Initial value of house:</u>

  • $184000

<u>Yearly increase rate of value:</u>

  • 3.5%

<u>Time </u>

  • 13 years

Since the increase is concerning the current price it would be exponential growth.

<u>The function would be:</u>

  • V(t) = 184000*(1 + 3.5/100)^t, where V is the value after t years

<u>For t= 13 we get:</u>

  • V(13) = 184000*(1.035)^13 = 287800

<u>Profit made would be:</u>

  • 287800 - 184000 = 103800

Correct option is D.

An Internet reaction time test asks subjects to click their mouse button as soon as a light flashes on the screen. The light is
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

(a) 0.20

(b) 31%

(c) 2.52 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>Y</em> models the amount of time the subject has to wait for the light to flash.

The density curve represents that of an Uniform distribution with parameters <em>a</em> = 1 and <em>b</em> = 5.

So, Y\sim Unif(1,5)

(a)

The area under the density curve is always 1.

The length is 5 units.

Compute the height as follows:

\text{Area under the density curve}=\text{length}\times \text{height}

                                          1=5\times\text{height}\\\\\text{height}=\frac{1}{5}\\\\\text{height}=0.20

Thus, the height of the density curve is 0.20.

(b)

Compute the value of P (Y > 3.75) as follows:

P(Y>3.75)=\int\limits^{5}_{3.75} {\frac{1}{b-a}} \, dy \\\\=\int\limits^{5}_{3.75} {\frac{1}{5-1}} \, dy\\\\=\frac{1}{4}\times [y]^{5}_{3.75}\\\\=\frac{5-3.75}{4}\\\\=0.3125\\\\\approx 0.31

Thus, the light will flash more than 3.75 seconds after the subject clicks "Start" 31% of the times.

(c)

Compute the 38th percentile as follows:

P(Y

Thus, the 38th percentile is 2.52 seconds.

Can someone please explain this to me? I’m really confused on how to find the limit with the piecewise function.
ryzh [129]

Answer:   2

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

You only need to evaluate at the limit point.

f(x) = 4 - x  ; x ≠ 2

Consider the solution if x = 2 (because the limit is x → 2)

                                          f(2) = 4 - (2)

                                                =   2

We know that f(x) = 0  ; x = 2

                                         f(2) = 0

but we are looking for the y- value it approaches - not the y-value it is.

Look at the graph.  You will see that as x gets closer and closer to 2, the y-value gets closer and closer to 2.  This is the limit.
