(D) a = 2, b = 4
(E) a = 6, b = 4

Answers

Answer 1

Another possible values for a and b are a = 12 and b = 4

How to find another possible value for a and b?

A variation is a relation between a set of values of one variable and a set of values of other variables

Given that:  a is inversely related to the square of b, and a = 3 when bis

8.

This can be written as:

a α 1/b²

a = k/b²               (where k is  a constant)

k = ab²

since a = 3 and b = 8.

Thus, k = 3 × 8² = 3 × 64 = 192

For a value to be another possible value for a and b, they must give k = 192 when substituted into the equation k = ab²:

a = 4, b = 12: k = 4 × 12² = 576

a = 12, b = 4: k =  12 × 4² = 192

a = 8, b = 3:  k =  8 × 3² = 72

a = 2, b = 4: k =  2 × 4² = 32

a = 6, b = 4: k =  6 × 4² = 96

The values that produce k = 192 are a = 12 and b = 4. Therefore, another possible value for a and b is a = 12 and b = 4. So option B is the answer

Can anyone write equation of the graph?

Answers

The equation of given graph is y = |x - 3| + 5.

The graph of a absolute or modulus function is a V- shape graph. The function of absolute is f(x) = |x|. The general form of absolute function is f(x)=a |x - h| + k. Where (h,k) is the vertex of graph.

Here, we can see that graph is in the form of V shape, so the function will be absolute function. Now, we have to find the vertex of graph.

As seen from the graph the minimum point on the graph is located at the point (3, 5) and the value of a should be 1.

So, by putting the value of vertex in general equation we get the equation of the graph,

y = |x - 3| + 5

In triangle ABC, what is the measure of angle C if A = 120°, a = 25, and b = 20? Round the answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

The angle C = 103.85° using the sine rule and rounded to the nearest hundredth.

What is the sine rule?

In trigonometry, the sine rule is an equation relating the lengths of the sides of any triangle to the sines of its angles.

Considering the ∆ABC, the sine rule states that;

(a/sinA) = (b/sinB) = (c/sinC)

so

25/sin120° = 20/sinB

sinB = (20 × sin120°)/25 {cross multiplication}

sinB = 0.6928

B = sin^(-1)[0.6928)] {sine inverse}

B = 43. 85°

Sum of interior angles in ∆ABC is 180° so;

C = 180° - (120° + 43.85°)

C = 180° - 76.15°

C = 103.85°

With the application of the sine rule, we can conclude that the value of the angle C is 103.85° rounded to the nearest hundredth.

As per the given percentage, Sherry want to invest $2,000 amount in mutual fund and $13,200 amount in bonds.

Percentage:

Percentage means the number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100. It is often denoted using the percent sign, "%".

Given,

Sherry has 15,200 dollars to invest in mutual funds and in bonds. Sherry has selected a mutual fund that earns 1% a year and a bond that earns 4% a year.

Here we need to find if she wants to earn 548 at the end of the first year, how much does she need to invest in each type of account.

It is given that the total amount is 15200.

So, let us consider x be the amount invested in mutual funds then 15200 - x be the amount invested in bonds.

Therefore, it can be written in the following matrix,

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}x & 15200-x\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

Now, we have know that the total interest amount after 1 year is 548,

So, it can be written like the following expression

amount invested x percentage = final amount

Therefore,

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}x & 15200-x\end{bmatrix}\times\begin{bmatrix}\frac{1}{100} \\\frac{4}{100}\end{bmatrix}=548[/tex]

It can be simplified as,

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}x\times(\frac{1}{100})+(15200-x)\times(\frac{4}{100}) \end{bmatrix}=[548][/tex]

=> x/100 + 60800-4x/100 = 548

=> x + 60800 - 4x = 54800

=> -3x = 54800 - 60800

=> -3x = -6000

=> x = 2000

=> 15200 - 2000 = 13200

Therefore, she invests $2,000 in mutual funds and $13, 200 in bonds.

Find an equation for the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose
endpoints are (6, -5) and (-2, -9)

Answers

The perpendicular bisector of the line segment with endpoints (6, -5) and (-2, -9) is 7x,2y = 6.

What is standard form equation?Ax+By=C is the standard form for linear equations in two variables. 2x+3y=5, for example, is a standard linear equation. It is relatively simple to find both intercepts when an equation is given in this form (x and y).In mathematics, a number is written in standard form. The simplest form of decimal numbers is standard form, which can be easily read and written. The standard form of the decimal number 0.007, for example, is 7 10-3. It can be difficult to read or write very large or very small numbers at times. As a result, we write them in standard form.The standard form of numbers (also known as "scientific notation") has different meanings depending on where you are in the world.

Therefore,

The coordinates of the end points:

(6, -5) and (-2, -9)

((6, -5) +(-2, -9))/2

= ((6,-9)/2, (-2, -5)/2)

= (1.5, 3.5)

The difference in endpoint coordinates will be;

(Δx, Δy) = (9-(-5), (-2)-6) = (14, 8)

Then the ratio of these values, so we need to divide both by the common factor of 2:

(Δx, Δy) = (7, 2)

A line perpendicular to this segment through the point (h, k) can be written as;

Δx·x +Δy·y = Δx·h +Δy·k

7x ,2y = 7(2) 2(4)

7x, 2y = 6 .

The probability that Rupert picked 2 green balls is 1/21.

What is probability?

The area of mathematics known as probability deals with numerical descriptions of how likely it is for an event to happen or for a claim to be true. It's value ranges from 0 to 1.  

Main Body:

total balls = 7  , green balls =2

1st try:  

probability of getting green ball = 2/7

As there is no replacement so now,

total balls = 6  , green balls = 1

2nd try:  

probability of getting green ball = 1/6

total probability = (2/7)*(1/6)

                          = 1/21

Hence the answer is 1/21.

The number of books each classroom received = 185

In this question, we have been given two libraries donated books to a local school. One library donated 786 books and the other library donated 1,245 books. The school divided the books evenly among 11 classrooms.

We need to find the number of books each classroom received.

Total number of books received:

786 + 1245 = 2031

The school divided the books evenly among 11 classrooms.

Let x be the number of books each classroom received.

By unitary method,

x = 2031 /11

x ≈ 185

Therefore, the number of books each classroom received = 185

a coin is altered so that the probability that it lands on heads is less than 1 2 12 and when the coin is flipped four times, the probability of an equal number of heads and tails is 1 6 16. what is the probability that the coin lands on heads?

Answers

The probability that the coin lands on heads is D = (3±√3)/6

Probability is a branch of mathematics that studies the likelihood of a random event occurring. For example, when a coin is tossed into the air, the possible outcomes are Head and Tail.

Let x be the probability of flipping heads. As a result, the probability of flipping tails is 1- x.

The probability of flipping two heads and two tails is equal to the number of ways to flip it multiplied by the product of the probabilities

(4+2)x2(1-x)2 = 1/6

6x2(1-x)2 = 1/6

x2(1-x)2 = 1/36

x(1-x) = ±1/6

As for the desired probability x, both x and 1 - x are nonnegative, we only need to consider the positive root, hence

x(1-x) = 1/6

6x2 – 6x +1 = 1/6

Using the quadratic formula, we can determine that the roots of this equation are

(3±√3)/6

Therefore the probability that the coin lands on heads is D = (3±√3)/6

Answer:

The object has fallen [tex] \boxed{\sf 289} [/tex] feet from ts intial position.

Step-by-step Explanation:

Given:

Formula:

[tex] \rm v = \sqrt{2gh} [/tex]

Where,

v = velocity (in feet per second)

h = Height fallen (in feet)

g = acceleration due gravity (in feet per second squared) = approximately 32 ft/s²

To find:

How far an object has fallen if its velocity (v) is 136 ft/s

Solution:

By substituting the value of g & v in the formula we get:

[tex]\rm \implies 136 = \sqrt{2 \times 32 \times h} \\ \\ \rm \implies 136 = \sqrt{64h} \\ \\ \rm \implies 64h = {136}^{2} \\ \\ \rm \implies h = \dfrac{ {136}^{2} }{64} \\ \\ \rm \implies h = \dfrac{18496}{64} \\ \\ \rm \implies h = 289 \: ft[/tex]
