Answer:

40 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

If two polygons are congruent to one another, therefore, it implies that the angles and sides of one is congruent to the corresponding sides and angles of the other.

Given that ABCD is congruent to EFGH, therefore:

CD ≅ GH

Since CD = 40 ft, therefore, GH will be 40 ft.

Complete the steps to solve the polynomial equation x3 – 21x = –20. According to the rational root theorem, which number is a po

jeka94

Answer:

Zeroes : 1, 4 and -5.

Potential roots: $\pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 4, \pm 5, \pm 10, \pm 20$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

$x^3-21x=-20$

It can be written as

$x^3+0x^2-21x+20=0$

Splitting the middle terms, we get

$x^3-x^2+x^2-x-20x+20=0$

$x^2(x-1)+x(x-1)-20(x-1)=0$

$(x-1)(x^2+x-20)=0$

Splitting the middle terms, we get

$(x-1)(x^2+5x-4x-20)=0$

$(x-1)(x(x+5)-4(x+5))=0$

$(x-1)(x+5)(x-4)=0$

Using zero product property, we get

$x-1=0\Rightarrow x=1$

$x-4=0\Rightarrow x=4$

$x+5=0\Rightarrow x=-5$

Therefore, the zeroes of the equation are 1, 4 and -5.

According to rational root theorem, the potential root of the polynomial are

$x=\dfrac{\text{Factor of constant}}{\text{Factor of leading coefficient}}$

Constant = 20

Factors of constant ±1, ±2, ±4, ±5, ±10, ±20.

Leading coefficient= 1

Factors of leading coefficient ±1.

Therefore, the potential root of the polynomial are $\pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 4, \pm 5, \pm 10, \pm 20$ .

Allied Corporation is trying to sell its new machines to Ajax. Allied claims that the machine will pay for itself since the time

kvasek [131]

Answer:

z(s) is in the acceptance region. We accept H₀ we did not find a significantly difference in the performance of the two machines therefore we suggest not to buy a new machine

Step-by-step explanation:

We must evaluate the differences of the means of the two machines, to do so, we will assume a CI of 95%, and as the interest is to find out if the new machine has better performance ( machine has a bigger efficiency or the new machine produces more units per unit of time than the old one) the test will be a one tail-test (to the left).

New machine

Sample mean x₁ = 25

Sample variance s₁ = 27

Sample size n₁ = 45

Old machine

Sample mean x₂ = 23

Sample variance s₂ = 7,56

Sample size n₂ = 36

Test Hypothesis:

Null hypothesis H₀ x₂ - x₁ = d = 0

Alternative hypothesis Hₐ x₂ - x₁ < 0

CI = 90 % ⇒ α = 10 % α = 0,1 z(c) = - 1,28

To calculate z(s)

z(s) = ( x₂ - x₁ ) / √s₁² / n₁ + s₂² / n₂

s₁ = 27 ⇒ s₁² = 729

n₁ = 45 ⇒ s₁² / n₁ = 16,2

s₂ = 7,56 ⇒ s₂² = 57,15

n₂ = 36 ⇒ s₂² / n₂ = 1,5876

√s₁² / n₁ + s₂² / n₂ = √ 16,2 + 1.5876 = 4,2175

z(s) = (23 - 25 )/4,2175

z(s) = - 0,4742

Comparing z(s) and z(c)

|z(s)| < | z(c)|

z(s) is in the acceptance region. We accept H₀ we did not find a significantly difference in the performance of the two machines therefore we suggest not to buy a new machine

The very hight dispersion of values s₁ = 27 is evidence of frecuent values quite far from the mean

Translate into an algebraic expression and simplify if possible. I have a total of 10 gigabytes of data on my computer, xgigabyt

pogonyaev

Answer:

(20-3x)/2 GB

Explanation:

Total amount of data on my computer = 10GB

Total amount of data occupied by movies = x GB

If pictures take up half the amount of space that movies do, then;

Total amount of data occupied by pictures = 1/2 of space occupied by movies = 1/2 x

If the remaining are music, the amount of space occupied by music will be expressed as shown;

Total space -(space occupied by movies + space occupied by pictures)

= 10 - (x+1/2 x)

Total amount of data occupied by music = 10 - (x+1/2 x) GB

On simplification;

= 10 - (x+1/2 x)

= 10-{(2x+x)/2}

= 10 - {3x/2}

= (20-3x)/2 GB

Hence, amount of gigabytes of music stored on my computer is expressed as (20-3x)/2 GB.

What is the value of 4p-2 when p=8

3241004551 [841]

Answer: Hence, the value of expression is 30 when p = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

$4p-2$

and we have p = 8.

So, we substitute the value of p in the above expression.

so, it becomes,

$4(8)-2\\\\4\times 8-2\\\\=32-2\\\\=30$

Hence, the value of expression is 30 when p = 8.
