C.
456, 216, 96, 36
D.

Answers

Answer 1
a(4) = 1/2 a(n - 1) + 12 = 36
1/2 * 3a  + 12 = 36
3/2 a = 24
a = 16
 
so first term = 1/2 * 16 (1 - 1) + 12 = 12
which  is different from any of the choices.

The lifetime of a supertough aaa battery is normally distributed with mean of 28.5 hours and standard deviation of 5.3 hours. for a battery selected at random, what is the probability that the lifetime will be 25 hours or less?

Answers

To answer this item, we are first to determine the z-score of the presented data using the equation,

                          z-score = (x - μ) / σ

where x is the data, μ is the mean, and σ is the standard deviation.

Substituting the known values,

                          z-score = (25 - 28.5)/5.3

                          z-score = -0.66

This translates to a percentage equal to 25.46%.

Therefore, from the supertough aaa batteries, approximately 25.46% has a lifetime that is only about 25 hours or less.

Examine the graph at right. Then in a sentence suggest why the graph rises at 11:00am and drops at 1:15pm

Answers

The x-axis of the graph is the time while y-axis of the given plot is the money inside Lucy's purse in dollars. we can see that from 6 am to 11 am, Lucy's money is equal to about $60 while around 11 am it rose up to around $125 and then decreased to $100. This means that in the given range of time, only one transaction per time range was done by Lucy. One scenario here was that before lunch, say 11 am, her money was $60 and found out that she has to buy something after work, in which her money was not enough. She went to withdraw some cash that's why she had $125 in total and has to spend a portion of it at lunch with the remaining cash of $100. 

A personal identification code consists of five digits (0 through 9). how many codes are possible?
a. 50
b. 252

Answers

The answer is C, 
on each place you have 10 possible digit,
so for 5 places it will be 10^5 = 100, 000

There are 30,240 codes that are possible which consist of five digits (0 through 9).

What is a permutation?

A permutation is defined as a mathematical process that determines the number of different arrangements in a set of objects when the order of the sequential arrangements.

There are 10 options for each of the 5 digits in the personal identification code (0 through 9). Since the order of the digits matters, we can use the formula for the number of permutations of n items taken r at a time, which is:

n!/(n-r)!

In this case, n is the number of options (10) and r is the number of items (5). Plugging these values into the formula gives us:

10!/(10-5)! = 10!/(5!) = 109876 = 30,240

Therefore, the correct answer is (d) 30,240.

if a 24-day single payment loan has a periodic interest rate of 8.4% what is the approximate APR of the loan?
A. 201.6%
B. 127.8%
C. 12.8%
D. 20.2%

Answers

365 days by 24 = 15.20833 periods multiplied by 8.4 % = 127.8%

Answer:

Option B, 127.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

If a 24-day single payment loan has a periodic interest rate of 8.4%.

First we divide 365 by 24 to make periods of 24 days in one year.

365 ÷ 24 = 15.21

periodic interest rate of 8.4%

then Annual Percentage Rate = 15.21 × 8.4 = 1 27.76 ≈ 127.8%

127.8% is the approximate APR of the loan.

There are 4 ways to get a royal flush. Those ways are
* You have a royal flush with nothing but hearts 
* You have a royal flush with nothing but diamonds 
* You have a royal flush with nothing but spades
* You have a royal flush with nothing but clubs

An acute angle θ is in a right triangle with sin θ = two thirds . What is the value of cot θ?

Answers

check the picture below.

Answer:

six divided by the square root of thirteen

Step-by-step explanation:

hey there,

< sin θ = [tex]\frac{O}{H}[/tex]

So that means O = 2 and H = 3. In order to find cot θ, first let's find tan θ.

tan θ = [tex]\frac{O}{B}[/tex]

We only know what O is equal to, not B. So let's draw out a triangle.

7  

◢   6

 B

As you can see (sorry for the poor triangle), this is a right triangle. In order to find an unknown part, use [tex]a^2 + b^2 = c^2[/tex]!

[tex]6^2 + B^2 = 7^2[/tex]

B = ±√13

Obviously, a side of a triangle can't be negative, so it stays positive. Now we can find tangent!

tanθ =  [tex]\frac{6}{\sqrt{13} }[/tex]

But, we're not done here. We're trying to find cotθ.

cotθ = [tex]\frac{1}{tan}[/tex]θ

[tex]\frac{1}{\frac{6}{\sqrt{13} } }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{13} }{6}[/tex]

That's your final answer! >

Hope this helped! Feel free to ask anything else.

Problem 1)

AC is only perpendicular to EF if angle ADE is 90 degrees

(angle ADE) + (angle DAE) + (angle AED) = 180
(angle ADE) + (44) + (48) = 180
(angle ADE) + 92 = 180
(angle ADE) + 92 - 92 = 180 - 92
angle ADE  = 88

Since angle ADE is actually 88 degrees, we do NOT have a right angle so we do NOT have a right triangle

Triangle AED is acute (all 3 angles are less than 90 degrees)

So because angle ADE is NOT 90 degrees, this means AC is NOT perpendicular to EF

-------------------------------------------------------------

Problem 2)

a) The center is (2,-3) 

The center is (h,k) and we can see that h = 2 and k = -3. It might help to write (x-2)^2+(y+3)^2 = 9 into (x-2)^2+(y-(-3))^2 = 3^3 then compare it to (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

---------------------

b) The radius is 3 and the diameter is 6

From part a), we have (x-2)^2+(y-(-3))^2 = 3^3 matching (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

where
h = 2
k = -3
r = 3

so, radius = r = 3
diameter = d = 2*r = 2*3 = 6

---------------------

c) The graph is shown in the image attachment. It is a circle with center point C = (2,-3) and radius r = 3.

Some points on the circle are

A = (2, 0)
B = (5, -3)
D = (2, -6)
E = (-1, -3)

Note how the distance from the center C to some point on the circle, say point B, is 3 units. In other words segment BC = 3.

Two spheres of the same density have a ratio of 4 to 9 in surface area. If the small sphere weighs 10 kg, what does the large sphere weigh?

Answers

w= 33.75, the weight of the larger sphere
We know the surface areas:

Sphere Surface Area     =     4 • π • r²
radius^2 = Surface Area / 4* PI
Let's say area of smaller sphere is 4 PI
radius^2 = 1
radius = 1
9/4 = 2.25
Area of the larger sphere = 4 * PI * 2.25
radius^2 = 2.25
radius = 1.5

Volume of a sphere = 4/3 • π • r³
Volume of larger sphere = 4/3 • π • 1.5^3
Volume of larger sphere = 3.375 times volume of smaller sphere

Mass of larger sphere = 3.375 * 10 kg
The larger sphere weighs 33.75 kg

Which of the following statements is the converse of the statement "If each of two angles has a measure of 28 degrees, then the two angles are equal in measure"?

Answers

the converse would be

If the 2 angles are equal in measure the each of the 2 angles has a measure of 28 degrees.

AS you see in this example , the converse is not necessarily true.

Answer:

If two angles are equal in measure then each of the two angles has a measure of 28 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

The converse of a statement is found by switching the hypothesis and conclusion of a conditional statement.

The hypothesis is the part that comes after "if" and the conclusion is the part that comes after "then."

This means the hypothesis is "each of two angles has a measure of 28 degrees" and the conclusion is "the two angles are equal in measure."

This gives us the converse "If two angles are equal in measure then each of the two angles has a measure of 28 degrees."

What is the equation of a circle with a center (-2, 3) and a radius r = 5?

Answers

The formula for the equation of a circle is:
(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2

(h, k) is the center.

So the equation would be:
(x + 2)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 5^2
or
(x + 2)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 25

What are the discontinuities of the function f(x) = the quantity x squared minus 16 over the quantity 4x plus 24

Answers

x^2 - 16
--------
4x + 24


when x = -6 the denominator 4x+24 = 0   so there is a discontinuity at x = -6

This is a vertical asymptote x = -6

There is also a sloping asymptote  - you find this by getting the quotient 
which is y = 0.25x - 1.5  This is the equation of this asymptote.

Answer:

x= -6 is the point of discontinuity.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the expression

[tex]\frac{x^2-16}{4x+24}[/tex]

The first thing to find the discontinuity is to factorize the given rational function:

After factorization  we get:

We will use [tex]a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)[/tex]

[tex]here, a=x\text{and}b=4[/tex] we will get:

[tex](x+4)(x-4)=x^2-4^2[/tex]

we will get:

[tex]\frac{(x+4)(x-4)}{4(x+6)}[/tex]

Discontinuity is the point where value of the function becomes not defined

Here, the point of discontinuity is -6 because when denominator becomes zero. function becomes not defined.

It has vertical asymptote but function is not defined.

Hence it is the point of discontinuity.

Which formula is used to find circular mil area?

Answers

The term circular mil is common in expressing the cross sectional area of a wire. Electrical wires have very minute diameters that are often measured a thousandth of an inch. Hence, when you find the area of the circular wire, for convenience, the unit used is circular mil which is equivalent to one-thousandth of an inch. 

For example, a wire has a diameter of 6×10⁻⁵ inches. To find its area:

A = πr² = π( 6×10⁻⁵ /2)² = 2.83×10⁻⁹ in²

Since 1 mil = 1/1000 (inch) or 0.001 inch

A =  (2.83×10⁻⁹ in²)* (1 mil/ 0.001 inch)²
A = 0.00283 circular mils

Ship A receives a distress signal from the northeast and ship B receives a distress signal from the same vessel from the west. At what location is the vessel in distress located? Describe how you arrived at your conclusion using complete sentences.

Answers

First plot the points.
Second based on the two directions from the points you know that up is north, Right is east, West is left, and down is south on the graph.
Draw a line from the two points in the direction that it says the ship received the call from. 
so the ship is at Ordered pair 3,3 :) 

Coordinate geometry is the use of a 2D plane to represent the location of points. The position or location of the distress is in the first quadrant.

The coordinates of ship A and B are not given. So, I will give a general explanation.

On the four cardinal points,

North is upwardsEast is at the rightWest is at the leftSouth is downward

So, if ship A receives a distress from the northeast, then it means that the distress is coming from a location at the top right of A. i.e. the first quadrant.

Also, ship B receives distress from the west. This means that ship B is at the right-hand side of the distress.

So, we can conclude that the position or location of the distress is at the first quadrant.

It is impossible to determine the actual coordinates of the distress because the coordinates are not given (see attachment possible illustration)

Answers

Final answer:

To calculate the amount of cardboard used for each box, we need to find the surface area of the hexagonal base and the lateral surface area. We can use the formula for the surface area of a hexagon to find the base area. Then, we multiply it by the height of the box and add the two areas together.

Explanation:

To find the amount of cardboard used for each box, we need to calculate the surface area of the hexagonal base and the lateral surface area. The surface area of a hexagon can be found using the formula:

Surface Area = 3 x √3 x s^2

where s is the length of the side of the hexagon. Given that the side length is 39 cm, we can substitute this into the formula to find the surface area of the hexagonal base. Once we have the surface area, we can calculate the lateral surface area by multiplying it by the height of the box, which is 4.7 cm. Adding the two areas together will give us the total amount of cardboard used for each box.
