A line contains points (−2,−2) and (1,4). Find the distance between the line and the point (6,−1).

Answers

Answer 1
In analytical geometry, derived equations are already available for finding the distance between a point and a line. The equation is

[tex]d = \frac{|Ax + By+ C|}{ \sqrt{ A^{2}+ B^{2} } } [/tex]

This is basing on the standard equation of a line in the form of:
Ax + By + C = 0, where A, B and C are coefficients.
These constants are coming from the equation of the line, while the point (x,y) is substituted to the x and y terms of the equation.

However, we must first know the equation of the line. Let us use the slope-intercept form: y = mx + b, where m is the slope which is equal to (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) while b is the y-intercept. For points (−2,−2) and (1,4), the slope is

m = (4--2)/(1--2) = 2

Then, we substitute any of those points to determine b. The answer would be the same either way. Let's use (-2,-2).
-2 = 2(-2) + b
b = 2

Thus, the equation of the line is y = 2x + 2. Rearranging into the standard form, it becomes 2x - y + 2 = 0. Therefore, A=2, B=-1 and C=2. Substituting the values to the equation by replacing x and y with coordinates of point (6,−1),

[tex]d = \frac{|2(6) + (-1)(-1)+ 2|}{ \sqrt{ 2^{2}+ (-1)^{2} } }[/tex]

d = 3√5 or 6.71 units

Scientists studied two animal populations. Function f(x) = 830(0.8)^x models a bear population in a given region x years after the study began. The table models the cougar population in the same region.
Year after study began: 0, 1, 2, 6, 15
Cougar population: 790, 735, 683, 511, 266
In the year the study began, how many more bears than cougars were in the given region.

Answers

Cougar population was 790 at the beginning
 830-790=40

Answer:

There were 40 more bears than cougars when the study started.

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens:

[tex]f(x)=830(0.8)^{x}[/tex]; where [tex]x[/tex] refers to years after the study began, about bear population.Table given is for cougar population.

So, the problem is asking how many more bears than cougars were in the given region. From the table, we know that there where 790 cougar when the study started.

Now, we have to calculate the initial condition of the function, because it's modelling bear population. Initial condition means when the study started, which is when [tex]x=0[/tex].

So, we have:

[tex]f(0)=830(0.8)^{0}=830(1)=830[/tex]

So, there were 830 bears when the study started.

If we compare, we find that there were 40 more bears than cougars when the study started, because 830-790 = 40.

the quadratic equation whose roots are the am and hm between the roots of the equation 2x2 - 3x+5=0

Answers

The first thing to do is to find the roots.

The sum of the roots, x1 + x2 = -b / a

x1 + x2 = 3 / 2

The product of the roots, x1 * x2 = c / a

x1 * x2 = 5 / 2

 

The AM means arithmetic mean and is calculated using the formula:

AM = (x1 + x2) / 2

AM = (3 / 2) / 2

AM = 3 / 4 = y1

 

The HM means harmonic mean and is calculated using the formula:

2 / HM = 1 / x1 + 1 / x2

or

2 / HM = (x1 + x2) / x1 * x2

Rewriting in terms of HM alone on the left side:

HM = 2 x1*x2 / (x1 + x2)

HM = 2 (5 / 2) / (3 / 2)

HM = 10 / 3 = y2

 

Creating an equation from y1 and y2:

(y – ¾) (y – 10/3) = 0

y^2 – 10/3 y – ¾ y + 30/12 = 0

y^2 - 49/12 y + 30/12 = 0       (ANSWER)

In addition to the trigonometric ratios, what other methods can be used to solve a right triangle? Give situations for when you might want to use them

Answers

Consider the right triangle shown below.
We shall discuss two methods for solving the right triangle.

Method 1. Use of trigonometric ratios
To use trigonometric ratios requires that either m∠A or m∠B is known and that one of the sides a, b, or c is known.
Example:
Assume that m∠A is known, then m∠B = 90° - m∠A.
Also, assume that b is known.
By definition,
tan A = a/b  => a = b*tan A
cos A = b/c  => c = b/cos A, or
sin A = a/c  =>  c = a/sin A 

Method 2. Algebraic method
When neither m∠A nor m∠B is known, then it is necessary to know the values of two sides: (a and b), (a and c), or (b and c).
The Pythagorean theorem states that
a² + b² = c²
(a) If a and b are known, then
c = √(a² + b²)
(b) If a and c are known, then
b = √(c² - a² )
(c) If b and c are known, then
a = √(c² - b²)

Once all sides are known, trigonometric ratios can be used t determine m∠A and m∠B.
Example:
Because a and c are known,
sin A = a/c
A = sin⁻¹ (a/c), which can be determined from the calculator.

Interpret the average rate of change of –14/3 that you found previously. What does this mean in terms of the waterslide, from x = 0 to x = 15?

Answers

Solution: The average rate of change of [tex]\frac{-14}{3}[/tex] represents that the second variable is decrease by 14 if the first variable increase by 3. In terms of water slide the vertical height of slide is decreased at the rate of 4.66 per unit. The vertical height of the slide decrease 70 units from x = 0 to x = 15.

Explanation:

The rate of change shows the change in first variable with respect to change in second variable.

If the rate of chang is given by [tex]\frac{-14}{3}[/tex] it means second variable is decrease by 14 if the first variable increase by 3.

In the context of water slide it shows that the vertical height of slide is decreased by 14 units as we cover the distance of 3 units.

If we cover the distance from x = 0 to x = 15, it means we cover the distance of 15 units.

Let the vertical height of the slide covered from x = 0 to x =15 be y.

It means when distance increased by 15 units the height of slide decreased by y units.

So rate of change = [tex]\frac{-y}{15}[/tex].

It is given that the rate of change is [tex]\frac{-14}{3}[/tex].

Equate both equations.

[tex]\frac{-y}{15}=\frac{-14}{3}[/tex]

[tex]y=15(\frac{14}{3} )[/tex]

[tex]y=5(14)[/tex]

[tex]y=70[/tex]

Therefore, the average rate of change of [tex]\frac{-14}{3}[/tex] represents that the second variable is decrease by 14 if the first variable increase by 3. In terms of water slide the vertical height of slide is decreased at the rate of 4.66 per unit. The vertical height of the slide decrease 70 units from x = 0 to x = 15.

What this mean in terms of the waterslide, from x = 0 to x = 15 is:

The vertical height of slide is decreased at the rate of 4.66 per unit.The vertical height of the slide decreased by 70 units from x= 0 to x=15

What is Rate of Change?

This refers to how fast or slow a thing is required before it changes form from one form to another.

With this in mind, we can see that with the water slide, there exists the decrease of the vertical height by 14 units over a distance of 3 units.

Therefore, the rate of change is -y/15

Answers

The probability that she scores at least once on one of the subsequent two throws is 37.5%. It is said that on the first row, she has a 50% chance of scoring. If she takes an additional throw, she has a 75% chance of scoring on this throw if she scored on the immediately previous throw, but only a 25% chance of scoring on this throw if she didn't score on the immediately previous throw. You are asked if she has to take a set of three free throws in a row, and she doesn't score on the first one and so multiply 75% by 50% and you will get 37.5%.

B is between a and c ac=15.8 and ab=9.9. find bc

Answers

Answer:

The value of bc is 5.9 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: b is between a and c, ac=15.8 and ab=9.9.

We need to find the measure of bc.

Since b is between a and c, therefore the segment ac is the sum of two segments ab and bc.

[tex]ac=ab+bc[/tex]

Substitute ac=15.8 and ab=9.9 in the above equation.

[tex]15.8=9.9+bc[/tex]

Subtract 9.9 from both sides.

[tex]15.8-9.9=9.9+bc-9.9[/tex]

[tex]5.9=bc[/tex]

Therefore the value of bc is 5.9 units.

If assumption of Collinearity is not for granted, then the length of Segment BC is defined by [tex]BC = \sqrt{347.65 -312.84\cdot \cos \beta}[/tex], for [tex]\beta \in [0^{\circ}, 180^{\circ}][/tex].

Reminder - Given that statement seems to be incomplete, we assume that we are talking about Line Segments and that Segments AC and BC may be Collinear.

By Geometry and, being more specific, by definition of Triangles, if we assume that all segment are not necessarily Collinear, then a Triangle may exist and can be modelled by the Law of Cosine:

[tex]BC = \sqrt{AC^{2}+AB^{2}-2\cdot AC\cdot AB\cdot \cos \beta}[/tex] (2)

Where [tex]\beta[/tex] is the angle at point B, in sexagesimal degrees and is between 0° and 180°.

If we know that [tex]AC = 15.8[/tex] and [tex]AB = 9.9[/tex], then the expression for the length of BC is:

[tex]BC = \sqrt{347.65 -312.84\cdot \cos \beta}[/tex]

If assumption of Collinearity is not for granted, then the length of Segment BC is defined by [tex]BC = \sqrt{347.65 -312.84\cdot \cos \beta}[/tex], for [tex]\beta \in [0^{\circ}, 180^{\circ}][/tex].

Find the probability that 3 randomly selected people all have the same birthday. ignore leap years. round to eight decimal places.\

Answers

Final answer:

The probability that 3 randomly selected people all have the same birthday is 1 in 48,627,125.

Explanation:

In order to find the probability that 3 randomly selected people all have the same birthday, we need to consider the total number of possible outcomes and the number of favorable outcomes. There are 365 days in a year (excluding leap years) and each person's birthday is independent of the others. Therefore, the probability of each person having the same birthday as the previous person is 1/365. To calculate the probability that all 3 people have the same birthday, we multiply the probabilities together:

P(3 people have the same birthday) = (1/365) * (1/365) * (1/365) = 1/48,627,125

Thus, the probability that 3 randomly selected people all have the same birthday is approximately 0.0000000206, rounded to eight decimal places.

Which statement about the estimate is true?A. The value will be greater than 1 because 4.296 x 10^11 is a very large number and multiplication always increases the size of a number.B. The value will be greater than 1 because 4 x 2 = 8 and 8 is larger than 1.C. The value will be less than 1 because (4.296 x 10^11) x (1.8614 x 10^-14) will be a negative number. All negative numbers are less than one.D. The number will be less than 1 because when adding the exponents, 11 + (-14) = 3, and a number in scientific notation with a negative exponent is less than 1. When fast moving electrons are released from an atom by way of a beta particle, the atom ends up with...one less proton and one more neutron. one more proton and one less neutron. the same number of protons and two more neutrons. two more neutrons and the same number of protons.
