What is the y-intercept of the quadratic function f(x) = (x – 6)(x – 2)? (0,–6) (0,12) (–8,0) (2,0)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(0,12)

Step-by-step explanation:

Just plug in 0 for x so (0-6)(0-2) = 12 so that's the y value.

Also, a y intercept has to be of the form (0,y) where y is some number.  The x value has to be 0, so that eliminates the last two options automatically, but if we put the x and y value we got together we get (0,12)

Answer 2

Answer:

(0,12)

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]f(x) = (x - 6)(x - 2)[/tex]

To find out y intercept , plug in 0 for x and find out f(0)

y intercept are the value where the graph crosses y axis

[tex]f(x) = (x - 6)(x - 2)[/tex]

[tex]f(0)= (0-6)(0 - 2)=12[/tex]

When x is 0 the value of y is 12

Write y intercept as (0,y) that is (0,12)

The given logarithmic expression is

[tex]log_{3}(x^4y)[/tex]

Recall and use the product property of logarithm: [tex]\log_a(MN)=\log_a(M)+\log_a(N)[/tex];

This implies that;

[tex]\log_{3}(x^4y)=\log_{3}(x^4)+\log_{3}(y)[/tex]

The calibration of a scale is to be checked by weighing a 10-kg test specimen 25 times. Suppose that the results of different weighings are independent of one another and that the weight on each trial is normally distributed with σ = .200 kg. Let µ denote the true average weight reading on the scale. (a) What hypotheses should be tested? (b) With the sample mean itself as the test statistic, what is the P-value when x = 9.85, and what would you conclude at significance level .01? (c) For a test with α = .01, what is the probability that recalibration is judged unnecessary when in fact µ = 10.2?

Answers

Answer:

a:  That the mean weight of the trials is 10 kg

b:  See attached photo for work

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to see if the scale is weighing properly and are using a 10 kg weight to calibrate it.  That means our hypothesis test is that the mean weight of the trails (in this case 25) is 10 kg.

The hypothesis we will use are

H0:  µ = 10

Ha:  µ ≠ 10

The alternate hypothesis has a not equals to sign because if the scale weighs too much or to little, then it needs to be better calibrated, so it's a two tailed test.

The calibration of the scale follows a normal distribution.

The null and the alternate hypotheses are: [tex]\mathbf{H_o: \mu = 10}[/tex] and [tex]\mathbf{H_a: \mu \ne 10}[/tex]The p-value when [tex]\mathbf{\bar x = 9.85}[/tex] is [tex]\mathbf{p=0.000494}[/tex]The scale needs to be calibratedThe probability that  recalibration is judged unnecessary is less than 0.00001

The given parameters are:

[tex]\mathbf{\sigma = 0.200}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\mu = 10}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{n = 25}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\bar x = 9.85}[/tex]

(a) The null and the alternate hypotheses

The true average weight is to be tested.

So, the null and the alternate hypotheses are:

[tex]\mathbf{H_o: \mu = 10}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{H_a: \mu \ne 10}[/tex]

(b) The p-value when [tex]\mathbf{\bar x = 9.85}[/tex]

First, we calculate the test statistic

[tex]\mathbf{t = \frac{\bar x - \mu}{\sigma/\sqrt n}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{t = \frac{9.85 - 10}{0.2/\sqrt{25}}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{t = \frac{9.85 - 10}{0.2/5}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{t = \frac{-0.15}{0.04}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{t = -3.75}[/tex]

Using p-value calculator, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{p=0.000494}[/tex]

The critical regions of [tex]\mathbf{t = -3.75}[/tex] are t >2.797 and t < -2.797

Because -3.75 < -2.797, we reject the null hypothesis.

This means that, the scale needs to be calibrated

(c) Probability that recalibration is judged when [tex]\mathbf{\mu = 10.2}[/tex]

First, we calculate the test statistic

[tex]\mathbf{t = \frac{\bar x - \mu}{\sigma/\sqrt n}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{t = \frac{9.85 - 10.2}{0.2/\sqrt{25}}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{t = \frac{-0.35}{0.04}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{t = -8.75}[/tex]

Using p-value calculator, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{p<0.00001}[/tex]

The probability that  recalibration is judged unnecessary is less than 0.00001

B) 128.6


C) 84.7


D) 59.8

Answers

Answer:

D) 59.8

Step-by-step explanation:

m<B = 120 deg

Since we know the measure of an angle and the length of the opposite side, we can establish the ratio of the law of sines, so we use the law of sines to find the length of side BA.

[tex] \dfrac{\sin A}{a} = \dfrac{\sin B}{b} = \dfrac{\sin C}{c} [/tex]

[tex] \dfrac{\sin A}{BC} = \dfrac{\sin B}{AC} = \dfrac{\sin C}{AB} [/tex]

Linda saves $1.55 every day. Tyron saves $3.90 every day. Linda started saving 3 days earlier than Tyron. On which day will Tyron's savings be more than Linda's savings?

Answers

Step 1: Write the amount of savings in equation
Linda's savings: s=1.55d
Tyron's savings: m=3.90d

Step 2: Add on the extra days to Linda's savings
Linda's savings s=1.55d+3(1.55)

Step 4: Simplify equation
s=1.55d+3(1.55)
s=1.55d+4.66

Step 5: Substitute numbers for d days until Tyron's m savings is greater than Linda's s saving
m=3.90d s=1.55(2)+4.66
m=3.90(2) s=3.10+4.66
m=7.80 s=7.76

On Tyron's second day he will have more money in his savings than Linda does.

To determine when Tyron's savings will surpass Linda's, we can set up an inequality using their daily saving rates and the fact that Linda started 3 days earlier. Solving for the number of days Tyron needs to save, we find that Tyron will surpass Linda's savings after saving for 2 full days.

Linda and Tyron are saving money on a daily basis, but Linda started saving 3 days earlier than Tyron. To find out on which day Tyron's savings will be more than Linda's, we need to set up an equation.

Let's define x as the number of days after which Tyron starts saving. Since Linda starts 3 days earlier, she has been saving for x + 3 days by the time Tyron starts saving.

Linda's daily savings: $1.55
Tyron's daily savings: $3.90

 Linda's total savings after x + 3 days: $1.55(x + 3)
Tyron's total savings after x days: $3.90x

We want to find the value of x at which Tyron's total savings exceed Linda's, so we set up the inequality:
$3.90x > $1.55(x + 3)

Now, solve for x:

$3.90x > $1.55x + $4.65
$3.90x - $1.55x > $4.65
$2.35x > $4.65
x > $4.65 / $2.35
x > 1.978

Since x represents the number of days and we cannot have a fraction of a day in this context, x must be at least 2 days. Therefore, Tyron's savings will be more than Linda's after he has saved for 2 days.

Final answer:

The area of a parking lot measuring 2/3 km long and 1/2 km wide is 1/3 km². This is found by multiplying the length by the width.

Explanation:

The question is asking for the area of a rectangular parking lot that measures 2/3 km long and 1/2 km wide. The formula for the area of a rectangle is length times width. Applying this formula, we multiply 2/3 km by 1/2 km.

It's important to remember that when multiplying fractions, you just multiply the numerators (top numbers) and the denominators (bottom numbers) separately. So, (2/3) x (1/2) = 2/6 km², which simplifies to 1/3 km².

∵ Area of any Δ = 1/2 (side 1)(side 2)(sin the angle between them)

∴ The area of the Δ = 1/2 (b)(c) sin(∠A)

∵ b = 11 feet

∵ c = 10 feet

∵ m∠A = 35°

∴ Area of the Δ = 1/2 (11)(10) (sin(35)) = 31.547 feet²

∴ The area of the triangle = 31.5 feet²

∴ The answer is (c)

Write an equation for the nth term of the geometric sequence 3584, 896, 224... Find the sixth term of this sequence

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

r = [tex]\frac{a_n}{a_{n-1}} = \frac{896}{3584} =  \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Using the geometric series formula for the nth term:

[tex]S_n = a \cdot \frac{1-r^n}{1-r} => S_{6} = 3584 \cdot \frac{1 - (\frac{1}{4})^{6} }{1 - \frac{1}{4} }  = 4777\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Final answer:

The equation for the nth term of the geometric sequence is a_n = a_1 * r^(n-1), where a_1 is the first term and r is the common ratio. The sixth term of the sequence is 14.

Explanation:

The given sequence is a geometric sequence. In a geometric sequence, each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a common ratio. To find the equation for the nth term of the geometric sequence, we need to find the common ratio. We can do this by dividing any term in the sequence by the previous term.

For example, dividing the second term 896 by the first term 3584 gives us a common ratio of 1/4.

So, the equation for the nth term of the sequence is:

an = a1 × r(n-1)

where a1 is the first term and r is the common ratio.

To find the sixth term, we can substitute n = 6 into the equation:

a6 = 3584 × (1/4)(6-1)

a6 = 3584 × (1/4)5

a6 = 14
