In the expansion of (1/ax +2ax^2)^5 the coefficient of x is five. Find the value of the constant a.
Answers
Answer:
80x⁴
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex](\frac{1}{ax} + 2ax^2)^5 = 5C_0(\frac{1}{ax})^5(2ax^2)^0 + 5C_1(\frac{1}{ax})^4(2ax^2)^1 + 5C_2(\frac{1}{ax})^3 (2ax^2)^2[/tex]

[tex]5C_0(\frac{1}{ax})^5(2ax^2)^0 =1 \times (\frac{1}{ax})^5 \times 1 = \frac{1}{a^5x^5}\\\\5C_1(\frac{1}{ax})^4(2ax^2)^1 = 5 \times (\frac{1}{ax})^4 \times (2ax^2)^1 = 10 ax^2 \times \frac{1}{a^4x^4} = \frac{10}{a^3x^2}\\\\5C_2 (\frac{1}{ax})^3 (2ax^2)^2= 10 \times (\frac{1}{ax})^3 \times (2ax^2)^2 = 10 \times \frac{1}{a^3x^3} \times 4a^2x^4 = \frac{40x}{a}\\\\5C_3 (\frac{1}{ax})^2 (2ax^2)^3 = 10 \times (\frac{1}{ax})^2 \times (2ax^2)^3 = 10 \times \frac{1}{a^2x^2} \times 8a^3 x^6 = 80ax^4\\\\[/tex]
[tex]5C_4(\frac{1}{ax})^1(2ax^2)^4 = 5 \times \frac{1}{ax} \times 16a^4x^8 = 80a^3x^7\\\\5C_5(\frac{1}{ax})^0(2ax^2)^5 = 1 \times 1 \times 32a^5x^{10}[/tex]
The fourth term of the expansion has the constant a,
the coefficient of a is 80x⁴

An isosceles triangle has legs of length 12 and base angles that measure 28°. What is the measure of its base to the nearest tenth? Be careful on this one.
Answers
Answer:
base = 21.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the base be 2x
Drawing a perpendicular bisector divides the bases into 2 equal parts.
Then using trigonometric ratio :
[tex]cos \theta = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex] , [tex][ \ where \ \theta = 28^{ \circ} , \ adjacent = x,\ hypotenuse = 12 \ ][/tex]
The trigonometric function gives the ratio of different sides of a right-angle triangle. The length of the base of the isosceles triangle is 21.19 units.
What are Trigonometric functions?The trigonometric function gives the ratio of different sides of a right-angle triangle.
[tex]\rm Sin \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}\\\\\\Cos \theta=\dfrac{Base}{Hypotenuse}\\\\\\Tan \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}[/tex]
where perpendicular is the side of the triangle which is opposite to the angle, and the hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle which is opposite to the 90° angle.
In order to solve the problem, we will draw a line between the triangle such that it will bisect the angle at the top(∠A) and the base(BC). As shown in the image below.
Now, as we know that the line(AD) is perpendicular to the base(BC) of the isosceles triangle, therefore, using the function of trigonometry in the Δ ABD we can write,
[tex]Cos \theta=\dfrac{BD}{AB}\\\\\\Cos (\angle B)=\dfrac{BD}{12}\\\\\\Cos 28^o \times 12={BD}\\\\BD = 10.5953[/tex]
Now, we know that the line BD divides the base BC into two equal parts, therefore, BD=BC.
BC = BD + DC
BC = 10.5953 +10.5953
BC = 21.19 units
Hence, the length of the base of the isosceles triangle is21.19 units.

Find an equation for the line perpendicular to y= -4/3x+5 with y-intercept (0,-12). Write the answer in slope-intercept form
Answers
Answer:
y=3/4x−12.
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope of the perpendicular line is negative inverse: m=34.
The equation of the perpendicular line is y=3x4+a.
To find a, we use the fact that the line should pass through the given point: −12=(34)⋅(0)+a.
a=−12.

An installation technician for a specialized communication system is dispatched to a city only when 3 or more orders have been placed. Suppose the orders follow a Poisson distribution with a mean of 0.25 per week for a city with a population of 100,000 and suppose your city contains 800,000.
a. What is the probability that a technician is required after a one-week period?
b. If you are the first one in the city to place an order, what is the probability that you have to wait more than two weeks from the time you place your order until a technician is dispatched?
Answers
Answer:
0.3233
0.09
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Mean, λ = 0.25 for a 100,000 per week
For a population of 800,000 :
λ = 800,000 / 100,000 * 0.25 = 8 * 0.25 = 2 orders per week
Probability that technician is required after one week ;
After one week, order is beyond 2 ; hence, order, x ≥ 3
P(x ≥ 3) = 1 - [p(x=0) + p(x= 1) + p(x =2)]
P(x ≥ 3) = 1 - e^-λ(1 + 2¹/1! + 2²/2!)
P(x ≥ 3) = 1 - e^-2(1+2+2) = 1 - e^-2*5 = 1 - e^-10
P(x ≥ 3) = 1 - e^-2 * 10
P(x ≥ 3) = 1 - 0.6766764
P(x ≥ 3) = 0.3233
B.)
Mean, λ for more than 2 weeks = 2 * 2 = 4
P(x < 2) = p(x = 0) + p(x = 1)
P(x < 2) = e^-4(0 + 4^1/1!)
P(x < 2) = e^-4(0 + 4) = e^-4(5)
P(x < 2) = e^-4(5) = 0.0183156 * 5 = 0.0915
P(x < 2) = 0.09

If he travelled at 15 km per hour, he would arrive one hour too early.
If he travelled at 10 km per hour, he would arrive one hour too late.
Questions : 1- At what time did he leave?
2- What distance did he travel?
3- At what speed did he travel?
Answers
Answer:
He had to arrive at 5:00pm
If he traveled at 15km per hour, he would arrive one hour too early
If he traveled at 10km per hour, he would arrive one hour too late.
At what time did he leave, what distance did he travel, and at what speed did he travel
:
Let d = distance traveled
:
Write an time equation; time = dist/speed
Travel time at 10 km/hr - travel time at 15 km/h = 2 hrs
d%2F10 - d%2F15 = 2
Multiply by 30
3d - 2d = 30(2)
d = 60 km is the distance
:
Find the travel time at 15 km/hr
60%2F15 = 4 hrs
:
let s = speed required to get there on time
:
required travel time - 15km/hr travel time = 1
60%2Fs - 4 = 1 hr
60 - 4s = 1s
60 = 1s + 4s
60 = 5s
s = 12 km/hr to arrive on time
:
Required travel time: 60%2F12 = 5 hrs
He would have to leave at noon
;
Summarize, depart at noon, travel for 5 hrs at 12 km/hr, a dist of 60 km

Which percentage is the best estimate for the shaded area under this normal curve?
Answers
=========================================================
Explanation:
It appears that -20 is the mean. It's not entirely clear however. If that assumption is correct, then the distance from -30 to -20 is 10 units. So the left endpoint is 1 standard deviation below the mean (because the standard deviation is 10 units).
Recall that through the empirical rule, roughly 68% of the distribution is within 1 standard deviation of the mean. This cuts in half to 34%. So the area from x = -30 to x = -20 is roughly 0.34
We'll use this value later so let A = 0.34
-------------------
The area under the curve from x = -20 to x = -10 is also 0.34
The area under the curve from x = -20 to x = 0 is 0.95/2 = 0.475
For the second part there, I'm using the idea that 95% of the normal distribution (roughly) is within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
So the area from x = -20 to x = -5 is somewhere between 0.34 and 0.475
Let B = 0.34 and C = 0.475
-------------------
The full shaded blue area is somewhere between A+B = 0.34+0.34 = 0.68 and A+C = 0.34+0.475 = 0.815
Based on that alone, the answer is between B and C.
-------------------
Unfortunately, we can't nail down an actual value unless we use a Z table or a calculator.
When I use a calculator, I'm getting 0.7745 (approximate) which rounds to 0.775 and converts to 77.5%
As for how to get this without a table or calculator, I'm not entirely sure what your teacher wanted you to do.

For the following right triangle find the side length x
Answers
Answer:
the answer should be 120 as the hypotenuse is obtained by √(a²+b²=c² )
Answer:
x = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
We're given a right triangle with the measures of two legs . We're also given as measures of hypotenuse as x .We need to find x.
Using Pythagorean theorem
a ² + b ² = c²
Where, a and b is the length of measures of legs and c is the measures of hypotenuse.Lebels the values , we get
( 15 ) ² + ( 8 )² = ( x ) ²
Expand the exponent
225 + 64 = x²
Add the numbers
289 = x²
Taking square root of both side
√289 = √x²
17 = x.
Hence, the length of side x is 17.

Answer:
A) The probability that Kevin will win the spring break cruise is 0.42%.
B) Kevin's expected earnings are $ 8.4.
C) Kevin effectively contributed with $ 50.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the college student senate is sponsoring a spring break Caribbean cruise raffle, and the proceeds are to be donated to the Samaritan Center for the Homeless, ya local travel agency donated the cruise, valued at $ 2000, and the students sold 2357 raffle tickets at $ 5 per ticket, to determine A) if Kevin bought ten tickets, what is the probability that Kevin will win the spring break cruise to the Caribbean; B) Kevin's expected earnings and C) how much did Kevin effectively contribute to the Samaritan Center for the Homeless; the following calculation must be performed:
A) 10/2357 = 0.0042 x 100 = 0.42
Therefore, the probability that Kevin will win the spring break cruise is 0.42%.
B) 2000 x 0.0042 = 8.4
Therefore, Kevin's expected earnings are $ 8.4.
C) 5 x 10 = 50
Kevin effectively contributed with $ 50.

Kyle works at a donut factory, where a 10-oz cup of coffee costs 95¢, a 14-oz cup costs $1.15, and a 20-oz cup costs $1.50. During one busy period, Kyle served 14 cups of coffee, using 204 ounces of coffee, while collecting a total of $16.70. How many cups of each size did Kyle fill?
Kyle filled ___ 10-oz cup(s), ___ 14-oz cup(s), and ___ 20-oz cup(s).
Answers
Answer:
Kyle filled 4 10-oz cups, 6 14-oz cups, and 4 20-oz cups.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 10-oz, 14-oz, and 20-oz coffees be represented by the variables a, b, and c, respectively.
Since a total of 14 cups of coffee was served:
[tex]a+b+c=14[/tex]
A total of 204 ounces of coffee was served. Therefore:
[tex]10a+14b+20c=204[/tex]
A total of $16.70 was collected. Hence:
[tex]0.95a+1.15b+1.5c=16.7[/tex]
This yields a triple system of equations. In order to solve a triple system, we should isolate the system to only two variables first.
From the first equation, let's subtract a and b from both sides:
[tex]c=14-a-b[/tex]
Substitute this into both the second and third equations:
[tex]10a+14b+20(14-a-b)=204[/tex]
And:
[tex]0.95a+1.15b+1.5(14-a-b)=16.7[/tex]
In this way, we've successfully created a system of two equations, which can be more easily solved. Distribute:
For the Second Equation:
[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} 10a+14b+280-20a-20b&=204\\ -10a-6b&=-76\\5a+3b&=38\end{aligned}[/tex]
And for the Third:
[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} 0.95a+1.15b+21-1.5a-1.5b&=16.7\\ -0.55a-0.35b&=-4.3\end{aligned}[/tex]
We can solve this using substitution. From the second equation, isolate a:
[tex]\displaystyle a=\frac{1}{5}(38-3b)=7.6-0.6b[/tex]
Substitute into the third:
[tex]-0.55(7.6-0.6b)-0.35b=-4.3[/tex]
Distribute and simplify:
[tex]-4.18+0.33b-0.35b=-4.3[/tex]
Therefore:
[tex]-0.02b=-0.12\Rightarrow b=6[/tex]
Using the equation for a:
[tex]a=7.6-0.6(6)=4[/tex]
And using the equation for c:
[tex]c=14-(4)-(6)=14-10=4[/tex]
Therefore, Kyle filled 4 10-oz cups, 6 14-oz cups, and 4 20-oz cups.
