If 8,x,y ,-4 are in A.p find x and y

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

firstly, 8+d=x and y+d= -4 where d is the common difference of the AP.

Also,

x+d=y;

therefore d=y-x;

so,

8+y-x=x (from the first equation)

=>8+y=2x

=>y=2x-8

Now from the second equation,

y+d= -4

(2x-8)+(y-x)= -4

=>x-8+2x-8= -4

=>3x=12

=>x=4

similarly,

y=2(4)-8

=>y=0

her house to the hospital is 9.9 miles
and the route back to her house is
10.5 miles. About how far does she
travel for work each week?

Answers

She travels 61.2 miles for work each week.

What is addition?

Addition is one of the mathematical operations. The addition of two numbers results in the total amount of the combined value.

We have been given that the healthcare worker has 3 shifts each week. The route from her house to the hospital is 9.9 miles and the route back to her house is 10.5 miles.

The distance from her house to the hospital = 9.9 miles

The distance back to her house = 10.5 miles.

The total distance travel in one shift = 9.9 + 10.5 = 20.4 miles

The total distance travel in 3 shift = 3 x 20.4 = 61.2 miles

Hence, She travels 61.2 miles for work each week.

A triangle has all three angles summing up to 180. If two of the sides measure 40 degrees and 50 degrees, then the third side measures as follows;

[tex]\begin{gathered} 40+50+A=180 \\ A=180-40-50 \\ A=90 \end{gathered}[/tex]

The third angle, which is labelled as angle A measures 90 degrees, and that means the triangle is a "right angled triangle."

Kirby is buying a new grill that has been reduced for an end of summer sale by 25% to $496. what was the original price of the grill?

Answers

Given:

current price of the grill = $496

Let the original price of the grill be x

We can calculate percentage decrease using the formula:

[tex]\text{Percent decrease = }\frac{Orig\text{ inal value - new value}}{Orig\text{ inal value}}\text{ }\times\text{ 100}[/tex]

Substituting the given values we have:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 25\text{ = }\frac{x-496}{x}\times\text{ 100} \\ 25\text{ = }\frac{(x-496)\times100}{x} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Cross-Multiply:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 25x\text{ = 100x - 49600} \\ \text{Collect like terms:} \\ -75x\text{ = -49600} \\ \text{Divide both sides by -75} \\ \frac{-75x}{-75}\text{ = }\frac{-49600}{-75} \\ x\text{ }\approx\text{661.33} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Roger and Rita each drive at a constant speed between Phoenix and San Diego. Each driver’s distance (miles) is shown for the same elapsed time (hours) of the trip. Who had a head start, and how many miles was the head start?

Answers

If each driver’s distance (miles) is shown for the same elapsed time (hours) of the trip. The person that had a head start is: Rita had a 28-mile head start.

Determining the speed

Slope for speed = (y² - y1) / (x² - x1)

Slope for speed = (130 - 65) / (2 - 1)

Slope for speed= 65 / 1

Slope for speed= 65 mph

Determining Roger's starting position if Roger distance is 65.

Hence,

Mile of head start = Slope of speed - Roger distance

Mile of head start = 65 mph - 65 miles

Mile of head start = 0 miles

Rita  starting position if Rita distance is 93

Slope for speed = (y² - y1) / (x² - x1)

Slope for speed = (158 - 93) / (2 - 1)

Slope for speed = 65 / 1

Slope for speed = 65 mph  

Mile of head start = Slope of speed - Rita distance

Mile of head start =  93 - 65

Mile of head start= 28 miles

Therefore we can conclude that Rita has a head start of 28 miles.

what is an equation of the line that passes through the points (5,-6) and (-5,-2)

Answers

The equation of line is 11y + 3x + 37 = 0

What is Equation of Line ?

The equation y = mx + c is the general equation of any straight line where m is the gradient of the line (how steep the line is) and c is the y -intercept (the point in which the line crosses the y -axis).

The given points are, (5, -6) and (-5, -2)

To find slope we have formula ,

m = (y2 - y1 ) / (x2 - x1)

where,

(x1, x2) = (5, -6) and,

(y1, y2) = (-5, -2)

Put the values in given formula of slope,

m = (-2 - (-5) ) / (-6 - 5)

m = (-2 + 5) / (-11)

m = - (3/11)

we get the slope, now to find the equation of line.

We know, the equation of the line with slope intercept is

y = mx + b

Now, for x and y value take any point and put it into this equation and find 'b'

let's take (-5, -2)

-2 = -(3/11) * -5 + b

-2 = 15/11 + b

-2 = (15 + 11b) / 11

-22 = 15 + 11b

-22 - 15 = 11b

-37 = 11b

b = -37/11

We got m = - 3/11 and b = -37/11

Now put these value in equation of line and form the equation

y = mx + b

y = -3/11 x - 37/11

11y = -3x - 37

3x + 11y + 37 = 0

Hence, the equation of line is 11y + 3x + 37 = 0

Answers

a) The expected value is 75, the standard deviation is 3 and the shape is approximately normal.

b) 0.9387 = 93.87% probability that the average aptitude test in the sample will be between 70.14 and 82.14.

c) 0.0052 = 0.52% probability that the average aptitude test in the sample will be greater than 82.68.

d) 0.8907 = 89.07% probability that the average aptitude test in the sample will be less than 78.69.

e) The value of C = 81.51.

What is meant by Normal probability distribution?

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]$\mu$[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]$\sigma$[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]$Z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$[/tex]

The Z-score calculates the deviation of the measure from the mean in standard deviations. We glance at the z-score table after determining the Z-score to determine the p-value connected to it. The likelihood that the measure's value is less than X, or the percentile of X, is represented by this p-value. The likelihood that the value of the measure is greater than X is obtained by deducting 1 from the p-value.

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]$\mu$[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]$\sigma$[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]$\mu$[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]$s=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$[/tex].

The scores on the test are normally distributed with a mean of 75 and a standard deviation of 15.

This means that [tex]$\mu=75, \sigma=15$[/tex]

a. By the Central Limit Theorem, it will be approximately normal, with expected value [tex]$\mu=75$[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]$s=\frac{15}{\sqrt{25}}=3$[/tex]

b. The p-value of Z when X = 82.14 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 70.14.

X = 82.14

[tex]$Z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]$Z=\frac{X-\mu}{s}$[/tex]

[tex]$Z=\frac{82.14-75}{3}$[/tex]

Z = 2.38

Z = 2.38 has a p-value of 0.9913.

[tex]$Z=\frac{X-\mu}{s}$[/tex]

substitute the values in the above equation, we get

[tex]$Z=\frac{70.14-75}{3}$[/tex]

Z = -1.62 has a p-value of 0.0526

0.9913 - 0.0526 = 0.9387

0.9387 = 93.87% probability that the average aptitude test in the sample will be between 70.14 and 82.14.

c. This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X=82.68.

[tex]$Z=\frac{X-\mu}{s}[/tex]

substitute the values in the above equation, we get

[tex]$&Z=\frac{82.68-75}{3} \\[/tex]

Z = 2.56 has a p-value of 0.9948.

1 - 0.9948 = 0.0052

0.0052 = 0.52% probability that the average aptitude test in the sample will be greater than 82.68

d. This is the p-value of Z when X=78.69. So

[tex]$&Z=\frac{X-\mu}{s} \\[/tex]

substitute the values in the above equation, we get

[tex]$&Z=\frac{78.69-75}{3} \\[/tex]

Z = 1.23 has a p-value of 0.8907

0.8907 = 89.07 % probability that the average aptitude test in the sample will be less than 78.69.

e. Find a value, C, such that P((x>C) = 0.015.

This is X when Z has a p-value of 1 - 0.015 = 0.985.

So X when Z = 2.17.

[tex]$Z=\frac{X-\mu}{s}$[/tex]

substitute the values in the above equation, we get

[tex]$2.17=\frac{X-75}{3}$[/tex]

X - 75 = 3 × 2.17

X = 81.51

Therefore, the value of C = 81.51

(b) use differentials to estimate the maximum error (in cm3) in the calculated volume. (round your answer to the nearest integer.) cm3 what is the relative error? (round your answer to three decimal places.)

Answers

a) the maximum error in surface area  and  the relative error  is 25.4 cm² and 1.25%

b) the maximum error in the volume and  the the relative error  is 162.1 cm³ and 1.875%

   

As we know  the  formula for surface area is

                                    Surface Area , S= 4*π*r^2.

So  differentiating both sides we get

                                     dS/dr = 8*π*r .....1

and  the  formula for  the circumference is :2*π*r

, so the error on the circumference will be respect to radius

=> Δc = 2*π*Δr  

=> Δr = ΔC / (2*π)

substituing the value ofΔr in  the equation 1, we get

The maximum error in surface area which is :

ΔS = 8*π*r*Δr = 4*r*Δc

      = (2/π)*c*Δc.

    = 25.4

where for the relative error

                 ΔS/S = 4*r*Δc/(4*π*r^2)

                          = Δc/(π*r)

                          = 2*Δc/c

                        = 1.25%

Now Since  the formula for  the volume of a sphere  is :

                                       V = 4/3*π*r^3

dofferentiating both sides we get ,

                           => dV/dr = 4*π*r^2.

So,  the   the maximum error in the calculated volume  will be :

ΔV = 4*π*r^2*Δr

       = 2*r^2*Δc

       = 1/(2*π^2)*c^2*Δc

      =162.1

Where as the relative error for the volume will be

ΔV/V = 3*Δr / r = 3*ΔC/C = 1.875%

distance = 9 mph *  (x + 4)

Calculation of distance covered by the car

average speed = distance / time

distance = 21 mph *  x

equating both gives

9 mph *  (x + 4) = 21 mph *  x

9x + 36 = 21x

36 = 21x - 9x

12x = 36

x = 3

hence the car will meet the cyclist in 3 hours

If m2 = 12x - 15 and m27 = 3x + 21, what is the measure of 21?

Answers

In the given figure, m∠2 and m∠7 are "Alternate Exterior Angles" and they are always congruent (equal).

So we can equate them and solve for x.

[tex]\begin{gathered} m\angle2=m\angle7 \\ 12x-15=3x+21 \\ 12x-3x=21+15_{} \\ 9x=36 \\ x=\frac{36}{9} \\ x=4 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So, m∠2 is

[tex]\begin{gathered} m\angle2=12x-15 \\ m\angle2=12(4)-15 \\ m\angle2=48-15 \\ m\angle2=33\degree \end{gathered}[/tex]

According to the straight-line angle property, the sum of m∠1 and m∠2 must be equal to 180°

[tex]\begin{gathered} m\angle1+m\angle2=180\degree \\ m\angle1+33\degree=180\degree \\ m\angle1=180\degree-33\degree \\ m\angle1=147\degree \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the measure of m∠1 is 147°

taylor is repairing a gate and needs to nail a brace diagnally to strengthen the posts. if the height of the post is 48 inches and there is 64 inches between posts, in inches, what should the length of the diagonal brace be in order to fit between the posts?

Answers

The hypotenuse bracing must be 80 inches long in order to fit between the posts, when the height of the post is 48 inches and there is 64 inches between posts i.e base.

We must understand that a right angle is formed by the height of a post and the horizontal space between posts. The hypotenuse of a right triangle is then the diagonal that connects one post's highest point to its lowest point. The length of this hypotenuse can then be determined using the Pythagorean theorem.

The Pythagorean theorem states that H2 = P2 + D2, where P is the height of a post (cathetus), D is the distance between posts (cathetus), and H is the hypotenuse (diagonal).

We can substitute these values since we are aware of them: ​

H² = (48inches)² + (64inches)² = 2,304inches² + 4,096inches² = 6,400inches²​

H= [tex]\sqrt{6400}[/tex] inches

H   = 80inches​

Therefore, The length of the diagonal brace be in order to fit between the posts is 80 inches.
