If RT = 36, RS = 2x + 3 and ST = 7x + 6, find RSand ST.

Answers

Answer 1

We know that RT=36 and that RS=2x+3 and ST=7x+6. We notice that

[tex]RT=RS+ST[/tex]

Then, plugging the corresponding values and expressions we have

[tex]36=(2x+3)+(7x+6)[/tex]

Solving this equation for x,

[tex]\begin{gathered} 36=(2x+3)+(7x+6) \\ 36=2x+3+7x+6 \\ 36=9x+9 \\ 36-9=9x \\ 27=9x \\ x=\frac{27}{9} \\ x=3 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then te value of x is 3.

Once we have the value of x we are able to find the value of RS and ST, we just have to substitute said value in the expressions. Then

[tex]\begin{gathered} RS=2(3)+3=6+3=9 \\ ST=7(3)+6=21+6=27 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore RS=9 and ST=27.

The administrator at your local hospital states that on weekends the average wait time for emergency room visits is 11 minutes. Based on discussions you have had with friends who have complained about how long they wait to be seen in the ER over a weekend, you dispute the administrator's claim. You decide to test your hypothesis. Over the course of a few weekends, you record the wait time for 28 randomly selected patients. The average wait time for these selected patients is 12 minutes with a standard deviation of 2.5 minutes. Do you have enough evidence to support your hypothesis that the average ER wait time is longer than 11 minutes? Conduct your test with a 5% level of significance.

Answers

This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.

The claim is that on weekends the average wait time for emergency room visits is more than 11 minutes.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]\begin{gathered} H_0\colon\mu=11 \\ H_a\colon\mu>11 \end{gathered}[/tex]

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample has a size n=28.

The sample mean is M=12.

As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=2.5.

The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:

[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{2.5}{\sqrt{28}}=0.4725[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

[tex]t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{12-11}{0.4725}=\dfrac{1}{0.4725}=2.117[/tex]

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

[tex]df=n-1=28-1=27[/tex]

This test is a right-tailed test, with 27 degrees of freedom and t=2.117, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

[tex]\text{P-value}=P(t>2.117)=0.0218[/tex]

As the P-value (0.0218) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is significant.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

Conclusion: at a significance level of 0.05, there is enough evidence to support the claim that, on weekends, the average wait time for emergency room visits is more than 11 minutes.

Louis borrowed $500 from his bank. His bank will charge Louis 8% simple interest per year to loan him the money. If he paid back the total amount he owed the bank, including interest, in 6 months, how much should he have paid?​

Answers

The amount that he owed the bank and paid is $520.

What will the interest be?

The simple interest is calculated as:

= Principal × Rate × Time / 100

Principal = $500

Rate = 8%

Time = 6 months = 6/12 = 0.5 years

The interest will be:

= PRT / 100

= (500 × 8 × 0.5)/100

= 2000/100

= $20

The amount paid back will be:

= Principal + Interest

= $500 + $20

= $520

What is equation of line in slope intercept form?

The most general form of equation of line in slope intercept form is given by y = mx + c

Where m is the slope of the line and c is the y intercept of the line.

Slope of a line is the tangent of the angle that the line makes with the positive direction of x axis.

If [tex]\theta[/tex] is the angle that the line makes with the positive direction of x axis, then slope (m) is given by

m = [tex]tan\theta[/tex]

The distance from the origin to the point where the line cuts the x axis is the x intercept of the line.

The distance from the origin to the point where the line cuts the y axis is the y intercept of the line.

The volume of a rectangular prism is 2 x cubed + 9 x squared minus 8 x minus 36 with height x + 2. Using synthetic division, what is the area of the base?

Answers

The base area of the prism is 2x² + 5x - 18

How to determine the area of the base?

From the question, the given parameters are

Volume = 2 x cubed + 9 x squared minus 8 x minus 36

Height =  x + 2

Rewrite properly as

Volume = 2x³ + 9x² - 8x - 36

Height =  x + 2

The base area is calculated as

Base area = Volume/Height

Using the synthetic division, we have

Set the divisor to 0

x + 2 = 0

This gives

x = -2

So, we have the representation to be

-2 | 2   9  - 8  - 36

Write out 2

So, we have

-2 | 2   9  - 8  - 36

     2

Multiply 2 and -2

This gives

-2 | 2   9  - 8  - 36

          -4

     2

So, we have

-2 | 2   9  - 8  - 36

          -4

     2    5

Repeat the process

So, we have

-2 | 2   9  - 8  - 36

          -4  -10

     2    5   -18

Repeat the process

So, we have

-2 | 2   9  - 8  - 36

          -4  -10   36

     2    5   -18    0

This means that

Uptown Tickets charges $7 per baseball game tickets plus a $3 process fee per order. Is the cost of an order proportional to the number of tickets ordered?

Answers

The cost of an order is proportional to the number of tickets if the relation between them is constant.

Then, if we order 1 ticket the cost will be $7 + $3 = $10

And if we order 2 tickets, the cost will be $7*2 + $3 = $17

So, the relation between cost and the number of tickets is:

For 1 ticket = $10 / 1 ticket = 10

For 2 tickets = $17/ 2 tickets = 8.5

Since 10 and 8.5 are different, the cost of an order is not proportional to the number of tickets ordered.

Suppose that the future price p(t) of a certain item is given by the following exponential function. In this function, p(t) is measured in dollars and t is the number of years from today. p(t) = 3000 * (1.019) ^ t

Answers

Explanation

The growth or decay of an original quantity C that increases or decreases in a p% per year after t years is given by the following equation:

[tex]p(t)=C\cdot(1\pm\frac{p}{100})^t[/tex]

If the quantity increases (i.e. it growths) we use the + symbol inside the parenthesis. If the quantity decreases we use the - symbol. This implies that for a growth the term that is raised to t is greater than 1 and for a decay that term is smaller than 1.

Now let's compare that generic equation with the function given by the question:

[tex]3000\cdot(1.019)^t=C\cdot(1\pm\frac{p}{100})^t[/tex]

One of the first things you can notice is that C=3000 which means that the initial price was $3000. Just to be sure that this is correct we can evaluate p(t) at t=0:

[tex]p(0)=3000\cdot(1.019)^0=3000[/tex]

So the initial price was $3000.

Now let's compare the terms inside parenthesis that are raised to t:

[tex]1.019=1\pm\frac{p}{100}[/tex]

As I stated before, if the term raised to t is greater than 1 then we are talking about a growth. 1.019 is greater than 1 so this function represents a growth. What's more, in the right side of the equation we must use the + symbol. This way we have an equation for the yearly percentage of change of the price:

[tex]1.019=1+\frac{p}{100}[/tex]

We can substract 1 from both sides of this equation:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 1.019-1=1+\frac{p}{100}-1 \\ 0.019=\frac{p}{100} \end{gathered}[/tex]

And we multiply both sides by 100:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 100\cdot0.019=\frac{p}{100}\cdot100 \\ 1.9=p \end{gathered}[/tex]

So each year the price increases in a 1.9%.

What is the slope and y-intercept? ​

Answers

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

Slope = m

 y₂ - y₁

---------- = m

 x₂ - x₁

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

y - intercept = b

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

If there's an equation I can solve it, but I hope this helps!

When looking at a graph of a line, there are two things you should look for straight off the bat. First, the y-intercept. And second, the slope.

The equation of a line is y = mx + b, where m is the slope, b is the y-intercept, and x is the input.

What is slope?
Slope is a number that determines how the line changes. It is often referred to as the "rate of change" because it represents how much the y-value of the line changes when the input (x) changes. The formula for slope is:
[tex]m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }[/tex]
Breakdown: This formula represents the change in the line, typically left to right. It shows the change in x-value over the change in corresponding y-value. This is also known as "rise over run," because the y-value is how much the line changes vertically, while the x-value is how much it changes horizontally.

Example: Let's say our line has a slope of 4, or m = 4/1. This means the y-value will change 4 units when the x-value changes by 1.

What is y-intercept?
Y-intercept is a value that determines the location of the line. When x = 0, the value of b will be the y-value. Essentially, when the line crosses the y-axis, that will be the y-value of the line.

Solve for x: 3x + 2 = 11 A : 11/5 B: 3. C : 11/3. D : 13/3. E : 6

Answers

Answer: x = 3 ( Option B)

Explanation:

The equation is given as:

3x + 2 = 11

The first step is to collect like terms ( Note that if 2 crosses to the other side of the equality sign, it becomes -2)

3x = 11 - 2

3x = 9

The next step is to divide both sides by 3:

3x/3 = 9/3

x = 3

A number multiplied by 2/5 is 3/20, Find the number

Answers

Answer:

3/8

Explanation:

Let the number be x.

A number multiplied by 2/5 = (2/5)x

Therefore:

[tex]\frac{2}{5}x=\frac{3}{20}[/tex]

To solve for x, first, we cross-multiply.

[tex]\begin{gathered} 2x\times20=3\times5 \\ 40x=15 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Next, we divide both sides of the equation by 40.

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{40x}{40}=\frac{15}{40} \\ x=\frac{3}{8} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The number is 3/8.
