Five students in the chess club went to the state tournament. If 20% of the chess club went to the tournament, how many students are in the chess club?

Thomas Sowell's speech "Morality vs. Sanctimoniousness" addresses the distinction between genuine moral actions and the outward appearance of moral superiority.

The keynote of his speech is to prioritize practical and fruitful measures over merely appearing sensible or righteous. According to Sowell, it is crucial to solve prevalent social problems with pragmatic, yet effective solutions instead of adopting self-righteous attitudes that lack meaningful outcomes.

Essentially, he opines that authentic ethical principles should be anchored in consideration for others' welfare and empirical evidence rather than being fueled by personal moral validation or pretentiousness.

Answer: To show that log5 7 = 1/(2n-1)(2mn-m-2), we'll start by using logarithmic properties and the given information.

First, let's express log9 75 in terms of the base 5 logarithm, using the change of base formula:

log9 75 = log5 75 / log5 9

Next, let's simplify the expression inside the logarithm by breaking down 75 and 9 into their prime factors:

log5 (3^2 * 5^2) / log5 (3^2)

Now, using logarithmic properties, we can split the logarithm of a product into the sum of logarithms:

log5 (3^2) + log5 (5^2) - log5 (3^2)

Simplifying further, we have:

2 log5 3 + 2 log5 5 - 2 log5 3

The 2 log5 3 and -2 log5 3 terms cancel each other out, leaving:

2 log5 5

Now, let's substitute the value of m from the given information (log5 21 = m) into the expression:

2 log5 5 = 2 (log5 (5^2)) = 2(2 log5 5) = 4 log5 5 = 4m

Now, let's substitute the value of n from the given information (log9 75 = n) into the expression:

4m = 4(log5 5) = 4(1/2 log5 (5^2)) = 4(1/2 log5 25) = 4(1/2 log5 (5^2 * 5^2))

Using logarithmic properties, we can split the logarithm of a product into the sum of logarithms:

4(1/2 (log5 5^2 + log5 5^2)) = 4(1/2 (2 log5 5 + 2 log5 5)) = 4(1/2 (4 log5 5))

Simplifying further, we have:

4(1/2) (4 log5 5) = 4(2 log5 5) = 8 log5 5 = 8n

Finally, substituting the values of m and n into the expression:

log5 7 = 1/(2n-1)(2mn-m-2) = 1/(2(8) - 1)(2(4m) - m - 2) = 1/(16 - 1)(8m - m - 2) = 1/15(7m - 2)

Therefore, we have shown that log5 7 = 1/(2n-1)(2mn-m-2) = 1/15(7m - 2), using the given values of log5 21 = m and log9 75 = n.

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

D.  (-2, 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given inequalities:

    [tex]y > -\dfrac{5}{3}x+2[/tex]

    [tex]y > 3x+2[/tex]

Both inequalities have been given in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The first equation has a negative slope, which means that as x increases, y decreases. Therefore, it is the dashed line that begins in quadrant II and ends in quadrant IV.

The second equation has a positive slope, which means that as x increases, y increases. Therefore, it is the dashed line that begins in quadrant III and ends in quadrant I.

When graphing inequalities, the inequality sign ">" indicates a dashed line and shading above the line.

As both inequalities should be shaded above the lines, the region where the shaded regions overlap is the upper "V" of the graph (see attachment).

A point that satisfies both inequalities is any point that is located in the overlapping shaded region, but not found on the dashed lines.

Therefore, the point that satisfies both inequalities is (-2, 10).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For a rectangle,

area = length × width

Let length = y.

Then the width is y - 5.

A = LW

750 = y(y - 5)

y(y - 5) = 750

y² - 5y - 750 = 0

All equations that can be put in the form above are correct.

A) y(y + 5) = 750

y² + 5y - 750 = 0

No

B) y² – 5y = 750

y² - 5y - 750 = 0

Yes

C) 750 – y(y – 5) = 0

750 - y² + 5y = 0

y²- 5y - 750 = 0

Yes

D) y(y – 5) + 750 = 0

y² - 5y + 750 = 0

No

E) (y + 25)(y – 30) = 0

y² + 25y - 30y - 750 = 0

y² - 5y - 750 = 0

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The explanation is attached below.

The measure of p in the diagram is,

m∠P = 45°

We have to given that;

PM is perpendicular to MO.

Now, If m ∠P = m∠2

then it's an isosceles triangle.

And, m ∠M = 90°, therefore it's an isosceles right triangle.

We know that,

the sum of measures of angles in a triangle is equal 180°.

Therefore we have the equation:

m∠P + m∠2  + m∠M = 180°

Substitute m∠M = 90° and m∠P = m∠2 = x:

x + x + 90° = 180°    

substract 90° from both sides

2x = 90°      

divide both sides by 2

x = 45°

m∠P = 45°

Thus, The measure of p in the diagram is,

m∠P = 45°

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for g (x) is,

⇒ g(x) = x² -3

Since, The function is,

⇒ f (x) = x²

when x = 0, f(x) = 0

hence it has vertex at (0,0)

Since, g(x) is shifter version of f(x) and has vertex at (-1, 4),

Then, g(x) must be shifted along y axis.

So, We get;

g(x)= x²+c

when x = - 1, g(x)= 4

Answer:The employer pays .90 * 12240 = $ 11016. The emplyee pays .10 *12240 = $ 1224 = annual contribution. Contribution rate = (100% - 90%) = 10%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

a) $1,224

b) $51

Step-by-step explanation:

a) To calculate Darrell's annual contribution, we need to determine the portion he pays out of the total premium.

Given that the employer pays 90% of the cost, Darrell is responsible for the remaining 10%.

Annual contribution = Total premium × 10%

= $12,240 × 0.10

= $1,224

Therefore, Darrell's annual contribution is $1,224.

b) To find Darrell's semimonthly deduction, we divide his annual contribution by the number of semimonthly periods in a year.

Number of semimonthly periods in a year = 12 (months) × 2 (semimonthly periods per month) = 24

Semimonthly deduction = Annual contribution / Number of semimonthly periods

= $1,224 / 24

= $51

Therefore, Darrell's semimonthly deduction is $51.

Answer:

? = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line parallel to another line will have the same slope. The given line y = 7x + 2 has a slope of 7.

To find the equation of the line that passes through the point (3, -1) and is parallel to the given line, we use the point-slope form of a linear equation, which is y - y1 = m(x - x1), where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is the given point.

So, the equation of the line parallel to y = 7x + 2 and passing through the point (3, -1) is:

y - (-1) = 7(x - 3)

Simplifying this, we get:

y = 7x - 21 - 1

y = 7x - 22

So, the equation of the line is y = 7x - 22.

Given the form of the equation y + 1 = ?(x -3). We then know the answer is y + 1 = 7 (x - 3)

The line's equation is :

Solution:

If two lines are parallel then their slopes are equal.

The slope of [tex]\sf{y=7x+2}[/tex] is 7, so the slope of the line parallel to it is 7.

Now, we should plug the slope and the point into the point slope equation. See, we're even given a hint :

Remember : y - y₁ = m(x - x₁).

This hint tells us the point slope equation.
