The area of a rectangular room is 750 square feet. The width of the room is 5 feet less than the length of the room. Which equations can be used to solve for y, the length of the room? Select three options. y(y + 5) = 750 y2 – 5y = 750 750 – y(y – 5) = 0 y(y – 5) + 750 = 0 (y + 25)(y – 30) = 0

Answers

The three equations that can be used to solve for y, the length of the room, are:

1. y(y + 5) = 750

2. y^2 – 5y = 750

3. (y + 25)(y – 30) = 0

Explanation:

Let's assume that the length of the room is y and the width of the room is y - 5.

We know that the area of the room is the product of its length and width, so we can write an equation:

y(y - 5) = 750

Simplifying this equation, we get:

y^2 - 5y - 750 = 0

Now we can solve this quadratic equation using the quadratic formula or factoring method. By factoring, we can get equation 3. By using the quadratic formula, we can get equation 2. Equation 1 is just another form of equation 2. Therefore, options 1, 2, and 3 can be used to solve for y. Option 4 is not a valid equation as it doesn't represent the area of the room.

Consider the following proposition: For each integer a, a = 2 (mod 8) if and only if (a^2 + 4a) = 4 (mod 8).
(a) Write the proposition as the conjunction of two conditional statements.
(b) Determine if the two conditional statements in Part (a) are true or false. If a conditional statement is true, write a proof, and if it is false, provide a counterexample.
(c) Is the given proposition true or false? Explain.

Answers

This question is about to determine the conditional statement,  proposition and either that is true or false.

The explanation of each part in this question is given below:

a) The given proposition can be written as the conjunction of two conditional statements as follows:

If a = 2 (mod 8), then [tex](a^2 + 4a) = 4 (mod 8)[/tex].

If [tex](a^2 + 4a) = 4 (mod 8)[/tex], then a = 2 (mod 8).

b) To prove the first conditional statement, assume a = 2 (mod 8). Then, there exists an integer k such that a = 8k + 2. Substituting this value of a into [tex](a^2 + 4a)[/tex], we get:

[tex]a^2 + 4a = (8k + 2)^2 + 4(8k + 2) = 64k^2 + 36k + 8[/tex]

Reducing this expression modulo 8, we get:

a^2 + 4a ≡ 64k^2 + 36k + 8 ≡ 0 + 4k + 0 ≡ 4 (mod 8)

Therefore, we have shown that if a = 2 (mod 8), then (a^2 + 4a) = 4 (mod 8).

To prove the second conditional statement, assume (a^2 + 4a) = 4 (mod 8). Then, there exists an integer k such that (a^2 + 4a) = 8k + 4. Substituting this value of (a^2 + 4a) into the equation a^2 + 4a - 8k = 0, we can use the quadratic formula to solve for a:

a = (-4 ± √(16 + 32k))/2 = -2 ± √(4 + 8k)

Since a is an integer, it follows that √(4 + 8k) must be an integer as well. This implies that 4 + 8k is a perfect square. The only perfect squares that are congruent to 4 (mod 8) are those of the form 8m + 4 for some integer m. Therefore, we have:

4 + 8k = 8m + 4

k = m

Substituting k = m back into the expression for a, we get:

a = -2 + √(4 + 8k) = -2 + √(8m + 4) = -2 + 2√(2m + 1)

Since a is an integer, it follows that √(2m + 1) must be an integer as well. This implies that 2m + 1 is a perfect square. The only perfect squares that are congruent to 1 (mod 8) are those of the form 8n + 1 for some integer n. Therefore, we have:

2m + 1 = 8n + 1

m = 4n

Substituting m = 4n back into the expression for a, we get:

a = -2 + 2√(2m + 1) = -2 + 2√(8n + 1) = 2(√(2n + 1) - 1)

Therefore, we have shown that if (a^2 + 4a) = 4 (mod 8), then a = 2 (mod 8).

Since both conditional statements have been proven, the given proposition is true.

(c) The given proposition is true, as shown in the proofs of the two conditional statements in part (b).

The limit of the difference quotient must not exist at any location z0 in the complex plane in order to demonstrate that f(z) = z is nowhere differentiable.

For f(z), the difference ratio is as follows:

As h gets closer to 0, we take the maximum and obtain:

This limit is constant at 1 and is unaffected by the number of z. The limit of the difference quotient must not exist at any location z0 in the complex plane in order to demonstrate that f(z) = z is nowhere differentiable.

Set up the integral that would give the volume V generated by rotating the region bounded by the given curves about the y-axis. y = x3, y = 0, x = 5 Disk/Washer Method v= V = --Select-- 4 ---Select--- Cylindrical Shells Method V= V = ---Select---

Answers

The integral that would give the volume V generated by rotating the region bounded by the given curves about the y-axis is V = ∫[from x=0 to x=6] π[(13 - x²/3)² - 13²]dx

To find the volume of a rotational solid, we can use the method of disks/washers, which involves slicing the solid into thin disks or washers, calculating the volume of each slice, and then adding them up using integration.

To use the method of disks/washers, we need to first determine the radius of each disk or washer. Since we're rotating the region around a horizontal line, the radius will be the distance from each point on the curve to the line of rotation, which in this case is y = 16. To find this distance, we subtract 16 from the y-coordinate of each point on the curve.

The outer radius is the distance from the point on the curve y = x^2/3 + 3 to the line y = 16, which is

=>  r = 16 - (x²/3 + 3) = 13 - x²/3.

The inner radius is the distance from the point on the curve y = 3 to the line y = 16, which is

=> r = 16 - 3 = 13.

Next, we need to express the volume of each disk or washer in terms of these radii.  This gives us the following formula for the volume of each slice:

dV = π[(13 - x²/3)² - 13²]dx

Finally, we can find the total volume of the solid by integrating over the range of x values that define the region we're rotating:

V = ∫[from x=0 to x=6] π[(13 - x²/3)² - 13²]dx

Evaluating this integral will give us the volume of the solid created by rotating the region between y = x²/3 + 3  and y = 3 about the line y = 16.

No, it is not possible to create a regular tessellation with a regular heptagon. A regular tessellation, also known as a tiling, is a repeating pattern of identical regular polygonal shapes that cover a plane without any gaps or overlaps. The only regular polygonal shapes that can be used to form a regular tessellation are the equilateral triangle, square, and hexagon. These shapes have interior angles that are multiples of 60 degrees, which allows them to fit together seamlessly to form a repeating pattern. The interior angle of a regular heptagon is roughly 128.5714 degrees, which does not divide evenly into 360 degrees, so it cannot be used to form a regular tessellation.

Answers

Out of a population of 100,000, the number of people who read at least two newspapers is = 33,000.

Let's approach this problem using the inclusion-exclusion principle.

First, we can add up the proportions of people who read each paper to get:

P(I) + P(II) + P(III) = 10% + 30% + 5% = 45%

However, this includes the people who read two or more papers multiple times, so we need to subtract those out. We can calculate these as follows:

P(I&II) + P(I&III) + P(II&III) = 8% + 2% + 4% = 14%

2P(I&II&III) = 2%

Using the inclusion-exclusion principle, we can now find the proportion of people who read at least two papers:

P(at least 2 papers) = P(I) + P(II) + P(III) - (P(I&II) + P(I&III) + P(II&III)) + 2P(I&II&III)

Plugging in the values, we get:

P(at least 2 papers) = 45% - 14% + 2% = 33%

So, the number of people who read at least two newspapers is:

susan currently walks to school from her apartment, which is 1.3 miles away from her first class. she typically walks at a speed of 3 miles per hour. she is considering buying a used bicycle from deseret industries to ride to campus. susan assumes that if she were riding a bike, she could go about 5 miles per hour.How many minutes could susan save getting to class each morning if she were to ride the bike?

Answers

Susan could save 10.4 minutes getting to class each morning if she were to ride the bike.

As per the data given:

The distance is given between the school and the apartment = 1.3 miles

Susan's walking speed = 3 miles/hr

Now we know that speed = distance ÷ time

Putting values in the above formulae, we get the time for walking situation

3 miles/hr = 1.3 ÷ time

Time = 1.3 ÷ 3 miles

Time = (13 ÷ 30 )hr

= (13 ÷ 30) × 60 minutes

= 13 × 2

= 26 minutes

The time taken when she is walking is 26 minutes.

Here we have to determine how many minutes could Susan save getting to class each morning if she were to ride the bike.

Now if she uses a bike, the speed is 5 miles/hr

Again applying same formulae speed = distance ÷ time

5 miles/hr= 1.3 ÷ time

Time= 1.3 ÷  5 miles

= (13 ÷ 50)hr

= (13 ÷ 50) × 60 minutes

= 15.6 minutes

Time taken by bike is 15.6 minutes

Total time saved = time taken when walking - time taken using the bike

= 26 - 15.6

= 10.4 minutes

Hence, Susan could save 10.4 minutes if she uses a bike.

Answers

A: The correct statement is c. Statistics are used to estimate parameters.

Statistics is the science of collecting and analyzing data to gain insight into a population of interest. It involves the collection, organization, analysis, interpretation, and presentation of data. The goal of using statistics is to draw conclusions about a population of interest and to estimate parameters of the population.

A parameter is a numerical value that is used to describe a population. For example, the mean of a population is a parameter. Statistics are used to estimate parameters of a population from a sample of the population. This process is called estimation. A statistic is a numerical value that is used to describe a sample.

For example, the sample mean is a statistic that is used to estimate the population mean. Estimation is done using the formula for a sample statistic, which is given by:

Estimate= (Statistic) / (Sample Size)

Here, the statistic is the sample mean, and the sample size is the number of observations in the sample. For example, if the sample mean is 10 and the sample size is 5, then the estimate of the population mean is 2 (10/5).

Statistics can also be used to construct confidence intervals to describe population parameters, such as means and proportions. A confidence interval is an interval of values around a sample statistic, such as a mean or a proportion, that is expected to contain the population parameter with a certain level of confidence.

In conclusion, statistics are used to estimate parameters of a population from a sample of the population. Estimation is done using the formula for a sample statistic, and confidence intervals can be used to describe population parameters.

Now,

Let's call the amount Grace invested at 7% "x".

Then the amount she invested at 9% would be "9000 - x", since she invested the rest at the higher rate.

We know that her annual income from the investments was $741.60.

The amount of money she made from the 7% investment would be 0.07x (7% expressed as a decimal multiplied by the amount invested), and the amount of money she made from the 9% investment would be 0.09(9000 - x) (9% expressed as a decimal multiplied by the amount invested).

So we can set up the equation:

0.07x + 0.09(9000 - x) = 741.60

Simplifying and solving for x:

0.07x + 810 - 0.09x = 741.60

-0.02x = -68.4

x = 3420

Therefore, by the given interest rate answer will be $5580, at 9%.

The angle measure of x, y and z are 104, 76 and 104 degrees respectively

Determining the angles in a parallelogram

The given. figure is a parallelogram with 4 interior angles. In a parallelogram, the sum of its adjacent angle is 180 degrees and its opposite angles are equal.

<A = <C

x = 104 degrees

For the measure of y:

x + y = 180

104 + y = 180

y = 180 - 104

y = 76 degrees

Since the sum of angles on a straight line is 180 degrees, hence;

y + z = 180

76 + z = 180

z = 104 degrees

Hence the measure of x, y and z are 104, 76 and 104 degrees respectively

A store made $650 on Monday. It made $233 on Tuesday
morning and $378 on Tuesday afternoon.
Leah says the store made more money on Tuesday.
Her work is shown at the right.

1. What is Leah's argument? How does she support it?

2. Tell how you can analyze Leah's reasoning.

3. Does Leah's reasoning make sense?

Answers

Leah's argument is that the rounded up figures for Tuesday sales are greater than the sales for Monday. She supports it by summing up the sales figures.

Leah's reasoning is wrong because she rounded up $ 233 to $ 300 instead of to $ 200.

Leah's reasoning therefore does not make sense.

What should Leah have done ?

Leah attempts to round the Tuesday sales figures to the nearest 100. In doing so, she rounded $ 233 to $ 300 instead of $ 200 which was the closest.

If she had done so, the result would be :

= 200 + 400

= $ 600

This would then show that Monday's figures were higher than Tuesday.

An airplane on a transatlantic flight took 2 hours 30 minutes to get form New York to its destination, a distance of 3,000 miles. To avoid a storm, however, the pilot went off his course, adding a distance of 600 miles to the flight. How fast did the plane travel?

A) 1440mph
B) 1461mph
C) 1480mph
D) 1466mph
E) 1380mph

Please Help

Answers

Answer:

We can use the formula speed = distance / time to calculate the speed of the plane.

The total distance traveled by the plane is 3,000 + 600 = 3,600 miles.

The total time taken by the plane is 2 hours 30 minutes, which is equivalent to 2.5 hours.

Therefore, the speed of the plane is:

speed = distance / time

     = 3,600 / 2.5

     = 1,440 miles per hour

So the answer is (A) 1440mph

find invertible matrices such that is non-invertible. choose so that (1) neither is a diagonal matrix and (2) are not scalar multiples of each other.

Answers

Invertible matrices P = [1 -2; 0 1] and Q = [1 0; 2 1] such that

A = PQ =  [1 2; 2 -3]  is non-invertible.

To find invertible matrices such that a given matrix is non-invertible, we can use the fact that if A is non-invertible, then the system of linear equations Ax = 0 has a non-trivial solution. This means that there exists a non-zero vector x such that Ax = 0.

Let's start with a non-invertible matrix A, for example:

A = [1 2; 2 4]

The determinant of A is 0, which means that A is non-invertible.

To find a non-zero vector x such that Ax = 0,

We can solve the system of linear equations:

x + 2y = 0

2x + 4y = 0

This system is equivalent to the single equation:

x + 2y = 0

If we choose y = 1, then x = -2, and we get the non-zero vector:

x = [-2; 1]

Now we can use x to construct invertible matrices P and Q such that

PQ = A, as follows:

P = [1 -2; 0 1]

Q = [1 0; 2 1]

The inverse of P is:

P^-1 = [1 2; 0 1]

And the inverse of Q is:

Q^-1 = [1 0; -2 1]

We can verify that P and Q are invertible and that PQ = A:

PQ = [1 -2; 0 1][1 0; 2 1]

PQ = [1 -2; 2 -4 + 1]

PQ = [1 2; 2 -3] = A

Therefore, we have found invertible matrices P and Q such that A = PQ is non-invertible.

Note:- that neither P nor Q is a diagonal matrix, and they are not scalar multiples of each other.
