Answer:

4,5,6 / 6,8,10 / 5,12,13 / ....

Step-by-step explanation:

Base on the pythagorean theorem, we have : a² + b² = c².
The first set : 4,5,6 - 4² + 5² = 6² (a possible set)
The second set : 6² + 8² = 10² (another possible set)
The last set : 5² + 12² = 13² (also possible)

There are a lot more sets, but I'll only list 3. Hope this helps :)

Connecticut families were asked how much they spent weekly on groceries. Using the following data, construct and interpret a 95%

Amanda [17]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the population mean amount spent on groceries by Connecticut families is ($73.20, $280.21).

Step-by-step explanation:

The data for the amount of money spent weekly on groceries is as follows:

S = {210, 23, 350, 112, 27, 175, 275, 50, 95, 450}

n = 10

Compute the sample mean and sample standard deviation:

$\bar x =\frac{1}{n}\cdot\sum X=\frac{ 1767 }{ 10 }= 176.7$

$s= \sqrt{ \frac{ \sum{\left(x_i - \overline{x}\right)^2 }}{n-1} } = \sqrt{ \frac{ 188448.1 }{ 10 - 1} } \approx 144.702$

It is assumed that the data come from a normal distribution.

Since the population standard deviation is not known, use a t confidence interval.

The critical value of t for 95% confidence level and degrees of freedom = n - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9 is:

$t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}=t_{0.05/2, (10-1)}=t_{0.025, 9}=2.262$

*Use a t-table.

Compute the 95% confidence interval for the population mean amount spent on groceries by Connecticut families as follows:

$CI=\bar x\pm t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}\cdot\ \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$

$=176.7\pm 2.262\cdot\ \frac{144.702}{\sqrt{10}}\\\\=176.7\pm 103.5064\\\\=(73.1936, 280.2064)\\\\\approx (73.20, 280.21)$

Thus, the 95% confidence interval for the population mean amount spent on groceries by Connecticut families is ($73.20, $280.21).

A rock thrown vertically upward from the surface of the moon at a velocity of 36m/sec reaches a height of s = 36t - 0.8 t^2 met

Verdich [7]

Answer:

a. The rock's velocity is $v(t)=36-1.6t \:{(m/s)}$ and the acceleration is $a(t)=-1.6 \:{(m/s^2)}$

b. It takes 22.5 seconds to reach the highest point.

c. The rock goes up to 405 m.

d. It reach half its maximum height when time is 6.59 s or 38.41 s.

e. The rock is aloft for 45 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Velocity is defined as the rate of change of position or the rate of displacement. $v(t)=\frac{ds}{dt}$
Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity. $a(t)=\frac{dv}{dt}$

The rock's velocity is the derivative of the height function $s(t) = 36t - 0.8 t^2$

$v(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(36t - 0.8 t^2) \\\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:Sum/Difference\:Rule}:\quad \left(f\pm g\right)'=f\:'\pm g'\\\\v(t)=\frac{d}{dt}\left(36t\right)-\frac{d}{dt}\left(0.8t^2\right)\\\\v(t)=36-1.6t$

The rock's acceleration is the derivative of the velocity function $v(t)=36-1.6t$

$a(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(36-1.6t)\\\\a(t)=-1.6$

b. The rock will reach its highest point when the velocity becomes zero.

$v(t)=36-1.6t=0\\36\cdot \:10-1.6t\cdot \:10=0\cdot \:10\\360-16t=0\\360-16t-360=0-360\\-16t=-360\\t=\frac{45}{2}=22.5$

It takes 22.5 seconds to reach the highest point.

c. The rock reach its highest point when t = 22.5 s

Thus

$s(22.5) = 36(22.5) - 0.8 (22.5)^2\\s(22.5) =405$

So the rock goes up to 405 m.

d. The maximum height is 405 m. So the half of its maximum height = $\frac{405}{2} =202.5 \:m$

To find the time it reach half its maximum height, we need to solve

$36t - 0.8 t^2=202.5\\36t\cdot \:10-0.8t^2\cdot \:10=202.5\cdot \:10\\360t-8t^2=2025\\360t-8t^2-2025=2025-2025\\-8t^2+360t-2025=0$

For a quadratic equation of the form $ax^2+bx+c=0$ the solutions are

$x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$\mathrm{For\:}\quad a=-8,\:b=360,\:c=-2025:\\\\t=\frac{-360+\sqrt{360^2-4\left(-8\right)\left(-2025\right)}}{2\left(-8\right)}=\frac{45\left(2-\sqrt{2}\right)}{4}\approx 6.59\\\\t=\frac{-360-\sqrt{360^2-4\left(-8\right)\left(-2025\right)}}{2\left(-8\right)}=\frac{45\left(2+\sqrt{2}\right)}{4}\approx 38.41$

It reach half its maximum height when time is 6.59 s or 38.41 s.

e. It is aloft until s(t) = 0 again

$36t - 0.8 t^2=0\\\\\mathrm{Factor\:}36t-0.8t^2\rightarrow -t\left(0.8t-36\right)\\\\\mathrm{The\:solutions\:to\:the\:quadratic\:equation\:are:}\\\\t=0,\:t=45$

The rock is aloft for 45 seconds.

If a=4b^2 and b=-1/2e^2, what is the value of a to the nearest tenth?

Maru [420]

To answer, it is assumed that e here is the Euler number which is equal to 2.718. Substitute this value to the e of the second equation to get the value of b.
b = 0.5(2.718^2) = 3.6945
Then, we substitute this value to the first equation to get the value of a.
a = 4(3.6945^2) = 54.498
Thus, the answer is approximately equal to 54.5.
