1,6, 11, 16 .. Find the 12th term of this Ap.?

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line that has a slope of 4/5 and contains the point (−5, −3).

ankoles [38]

y = mx + b, where m = slope, and b = y-intercept.

Since you are not given the y-intercept, you have to solve for it through the equation, y = (4/5)x (which is the slope you are given) + b, and replace x and y with values given, which are (-5,-3)

y = (4/5)x + b

-3 = (4/5)(-5) + b

-3 = -4 + b

1 = b

Then replace b in the first equation to get the answer

y = (4/5)x + 1

A sociologist was investigating the ages of grandparents of high school students. From a random sample of 10 high school student

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

$(69.8-71.6) -2.101 \sqrt{\frac{8.38^2}{10} +\frac{6.65^2}{10}}= -8.908$

$(69.8-71.6) +2.101 \sqrt{\frac{8.38^2}{10} +\frac{6.65^2}{10}}= 5.308$

So then the confidence interval for the difference of means is given by:

$-8.908 \leq \mu_M -\mu_F \leq 5.308$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X_{M}= 69.8$ represent the mean for the age of grandmother

$\bar X_{F}= 71.6$ represent the mean for the age of grandfather

$s_{M}= 8.38$ represent the sample deviation for the age of grandmother

$s_{F}= 6.65$ represent the sample deviation for the age of grandfather

$n_M = n_F= 10$

Solution to the problem

For this case the confidence interval is given by:

$(\bar X_{M} -\bar X_F) \pm t_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{s^2_M}{n_M} +\frac{s^2_F}{n_F}}$

In order to calculate the critical value $t_{\alpha/2}$ we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

$df=n_M +n_F-2=10+10-2=18$

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of $\alpha=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.025,18)".And we see that $t_{\alpha/2}=2.101$

And replacing we got:

$(69.8-71.6) -2.101 \sqrt{\frac{8.38^2}{10} +\frac{6.65^2}{10}}= -8.908$

$(69.8-71.6) +2.101 \sqrt{\frac{8.38^2}{10} +\frac{6.65^2}{10}}= 5.308$

So then the confidence interval for the difference of means is given by:

$-8.908 \leq \mu_M -\mu_F \leq 5.308$

Assume that a company sold 5.75 million motorcycles and 3.5 million cars in the year 2010. The growth in the sale of motorcycles

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Final answer is approx 6.644 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a company sold 5.75 million motorcycles and 3.5 million cars in the year 2010. The growth in the sale of motorcycles is 16% every year and that of cars is 25% every year.

So we can use growth formula:

$A=P\left(1+r\right)^t$

Then we get equation for motorcycles and cars as:

$A=5.75\left(1+0.16\right)^t$

$A=3.5\left(1+0.25\right)^t$

Now we need to find about when the sale of cars will be more than the sale of motorcycles. So we get:

$3.5\left(1+0.25\right)^t>5.75\left(1+0.16\right)^t$

$3.5\left(1.25\right)^t>5.75\left(1.16\right)^t$

$\frac{\left(1.25\right)^t}{\left(1.16\right)^t}>\frac{5.75}{3.5}$

$\left(\frac{1.25}{1.16}\right)^t>1.64285714286$

$t\cdot\ln\left(\frac{1.25}{1.16}\right)>\ln\left(1.64285714286\right)$

$t>\frac{\ln\left(1.64285714286\right)}{\ln\left(\frac{1.25}{1.16}\right)}$

$t>6.6436473051$

Hence final answer is approx 6.644 years.

Triangle FGH with vertices F(6,6), G(8,8), and H(8,3): (a) Reflection: in the line x = 5 (b) Translation: (x,y)→ (x - 7, y - 9)

irakobra [83]

(a) The vertices after the reflection in the line x = 5 are F'(4,6) , G'(2,8) , H'(2,3) .

and (b) after translation , the vertices are F''(-1,-3) , G'' (1,-1) , H''(1,-6) .

In the question a triangle FGH with vertices F(6,6) , G(8,8) and H(8,3) is given

Part (a)

the rule for reflection of point (x,y) by the line x = p is

(x,y) → (2×p - x , y)

reflection by the line x = 5 ,

we get

the vertices as

$F'$ (2×5-6,6) = (4,6)

G'(2×5-8,8) = (2,8)

H'(2×5 - 8 ,3) = (2,3)

Part (b)

the rule of translation is given as (x,y)→ (x - 7, y - 9)

So , the vertices after translation are

F''(6-7 , 6-9) = (-1,-3)

G''(8-7,8-9) = (1,-1)

H''(8-7,3-9) = (1,-6)

Therefore , (a) The vertices after the reflection in the line x = 5 are F'(4,6)

G'(2,8) , H'(2,3) .

and (b) after translation , the vertices are F''(-1,-3) , G'' (1,-1) , H''(1,-6) .

Write the standard equation for a circle with center (−6, −8), that passes through (0, 0)

chubhunter [2.5K]

Standard equation: (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

Here, (0-[-6])^2 + (0-[-8])^2 = r^2
Find r: 36 + 64 = 100, so r = 10

Then the desired equation is (x+6)^2 + (y+8)^2 = 10^2
