Step-by-step explanation:
To write an equivalent expression, we can combine like terms. So m +7m is 8 and we get 6(8m+2).
Here are a few others:
48m+12
6(m+m+m+m+m+m+m+m+2)
3(16m+4)
6m+12+42m
6m+6m+6m+6m+6m+6m+6m+6m+2
and the list goes on...
Part A: x = -5/4, 3 || (-5/4, 0) (3, 0)
To find the x-intercepts, we need to know where y is equal to 0. So, we will set the function equal to 0 and solve for x.
4x^2 - 7x - 15 = 0
4 x 15 = 60 || -12 x 5 = 60 || -12 + 5 = -7
4x^2 - 12x + 5x - 15 = 0
4x(x - 3) + 5(x - 3) = 0
(4x + 5)(x - 3) = 0
4x + 5 = 0
x = -5/4
x - 3 = 0
x = 3
Part B: minimum, (7/8, -289/16)
The vertex of the graph will be a minimum. This is because the parabola is positive, meaning that it opens to the top.
To find the coordinates of the parabola, we start with the x-coordinate. The x-coordinate can be found using the equation -b/2a.
b = -7
a = 4
x = -(-7) / 2(4) = 7/8
Now that we know the x-value, we can plug it into the function and solve for the y-value.
y = 4(7/8)^2 - 7(7/8) - 15
y = 4(49/64) - 49/8 - 15
y = 196/64 - 392/64 - 960/64
y = -1156/64 = -289/16 = -18 1/16
Part C:
First, start by graphing the vertex. Then, use the x-intercepts and graph those. At this point we should have three points in a sort of triangle shape. If we did it right, each of the x-values will be an equal distance from the vertex. After we have those points graphed, it is time to draw in the parabola. Knowing that the parabola is positive, we draw in a U shape that passes through each of the three points and opens toward the top of the coordinate grid.
Hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution to this problem is very much similar to your previous ones, already answered by Sqdancefan.
Given:
mean, mu = 3550 lbs (hope I read the first five correctly, and it's not a six)
standard deviation, sigma = 870 lbs
weights are normally distributed, and assume large samples.
Probability to be estimated between W1=2800 and W2=4500 lbs.
Solution:
We calculate Z-scores for each of the limits in order to estimate probabilities from tables.
For W1 (lower limit),
Z1=(W1-mu)/sigma = (2800 - 3550)/870 = -.862069
From tables, P(Z<Z1) = 0.194325
For W2 (upper limit):
Z2=(W2-mu)/sigma = (4500-3550)/879 = 1.091954
From tables, P(Z<Z2) = 0.862573
Therefore probability that weight is between W1 and W2 is
P( W1 < W < W2 )
= P(Z1 < Z < Z2)
= P(Z<Z2) - P(Z<Z1)
= 0.862573 - 0.194325
= 0.668248
= 0.67 (to the hundredth)
Answer:
a) $13588.08
b) $688.08
Step-by-step explanation:
Melissa had to purchase $12,900 worth of machinery for her business.
She made a down payment of $2100 and after that made monthly payments of $478.67 for the business loan for the rest.
Given that after years of paying monthly payments of $478.67, she finally paid off the loan.
Assume that she took 2 years to repay the loan.
a) Therefore, the total amount Melissa ended up paying for the machinery was $[2100 + (478.67 × 24)] = $13588.08 (Answer)
b) Therefore, the amount of interest that Melissa pay on the loan is $(13588.08 - 12900) =$688.08. (Answer)
Answer: x=100
Step-by-step explanation:
In parallelograms the opposite angles are equal. As the bottom left angle is 80° the opposite angle (top right), is also 80°. All 4 angles in a quadrilateral must add up to 360. Because you know 2 angles added together are 160° the other two angles must equal 200°. As opposite angles are equal you know 2x=200, divide by 2 x=100
