Thomas is on a road trip to San Francisco. At this point, he is already 140 miles away from his house. He continues driving at a rate of 65 miles every hour. Which equation represents the number of hours, h, it takes Thomas to be 500 miles away from his house. Based on the given information, how many hours will it take Thomas to be exactly 335 miles away from his house?

A. 1 hour
B. 2 hours
C. 3 hours
D. 4 hours

Answers

Given this situation, we can note that:

• Thomas is already 140 miles from his house
• He drives at a rate of 65 mph

Using this information, we want to know first how many hours it takes for Thomas to be 500 miles away from his house. We can set up a series of equations to find this out:

500 - 140 = 360
65h = 360
h ≈ 5.5

It will take Thomas approximately 5hrs 30 minutes to be 500 miles from his house.

We now need to identify how many hours it will take for Thomas to be exactly 335 miles away from his house:

335 - 140 = 195
65h = 195
h = 3

Hence, it will take Thomas 3 hours to be exactly 335 miles away from his house. This is represented best by option C.

The solutions to the equation |2x - 11| = 7 are x = 2 and x = 9. Option D

To find the numbers that satisfy the given condition, we can set up an equation based on the information provided.

Let's assume the number we're looking for is x. According to the problem, twice the number is 7 units from 11. Mathematically, we can represent this as:

|2x - 11| = 7

To find the possible values of x, we need to solve this equation. We can split it into two cases:

Case 1: 2x - 11 = 7

In this case, we have:

2x = 7 + 11

2x = 18

x = 18/2

x = 9

Case 2: -(2x - 11) = 7

In this case, we have:

-2x + 11 = 7

-2x = 7 - 11

-2x = -4

x = -4/-2

x = 2

Therefore, the solutions to the equation |2x - 11| = 7 are x = 2 and x = 9. These are the numbers that satisfy the condition where twice the number is 7 units from 11.

The correct answer is:

x = 2, 9 Option D

(4x + 2y = -6)/(-3x -2y = 7)

Answers


Answer:

= 1 and = -5.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the system of equations:
(4 + 2 = -6)
(-3 - 2 = 7)

We can use the method of elimination or substitution. Let's solve it using the elimination method:

Step 1: Multiply the first equation by 3 and the second equation by 4 to make the coefficients of in both equations equal and opposite:

3(4 + 2) = 3(-6) => 12 + 6 = -18
4(-3 - 2) = 4(7) => -12 - 8 = 28

Step 2: Add the two new equations together to eliminate :

(12 + 6) + (-12 - 8) = -18 + 28

Simplifying, we get:
-2 = 10
= -5

Step 3: Substitute the value of = -5 back into one of the original equations, let's use the first equation:

4 + 2(-5) = -6
4 - 10 = -6
4 = -6 + 10
4 = 4
= 1

So the solution to the system of equations is = 1 and = -5.

Answer:

  61.03°

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the angle opposite the side of length 7 in the triangle with other sides of lengths 4 and 8.

Law of Cosines

The law of cosines relates the angles of a triangle to the side lengths. For triangle ABC with opposite sides a, b, c, the relation is ...

  c² = a² +b² -2ab·cos(C)

Application

Solving for angle C, we have ...

  cos(C) = (a² +b² -c²)/(2ab)

  C = arccos((a² +b² -c²)/(2ab))

In this triangle, that means ...

  C = arccos((4² +8² -7²)/(2·4·8)) = arccos(31/64)

  C ≈ 61.03°

The angle of interest is about 61.03°.

Which shows one way to determine the factors of x3 - 12x7 - 2x + 24 by grouping?

Answers

The factored form of the polynomial x^3 - 12x^2 - 2x + 24 by grouping is (x - 12)(x^2 - 2).

To determine the factors of the polynomial x^3 - 12x^2 - 2x + 24 by grouping, we can follow these steps:

Step 1: Group the terms in pairs. In this case, we can pair the first two terms and the last two terms:

(x^3 - 12x^2) + (-2x + 24)

Step 2: Factor out the greatest common factor from each pair. From the first pair, we can factor out x^2, and from the second pair, we can factor out -2:

x^2(x - 12) - 2(x - 12)

Step 3: Notice that we now have a common binomial factor of (x - 12) in both terms. Factor out this common binomial factor:

(x - 12)(x^2 - 2)

Therefore, the factored form of the polynomial x^3 - 12x^2 - 2x + 24 by grouping is (x - 12)(x^2 - 2).

Answer:

  x ≈ 21.8

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the side length opposite the 98° angle in a triangle with side length 10 between that angle and one marked 55°.

Law of Sines

The law of sines can be used when angles are known and at least one side is known. The unknown angle is found by using the fact that the sum of angles is 180°.

  angle opposite 10 = 180° -98° -55° = 27°

The law of sines tells you ...

  a/sin(A) = b/sin(B)

  x/sin(98°) = 10/sin(27°)

  x = 10(sin(98°)/sin(27°)) ≈ 21.8

The value of x is about 21.8 units.

The equation Y= X^2/2 - 8 and Y= 2X -2 are graphed below what are the solutions to the equation X^2/2 - 8 = 2X -2 

Answers

The equation X^2/2 - 8 = 2X - 2 has two solutions, X = 6 and X = -2. These are the values of X that satisfy the equation and make both equations Y = X^2/2 - 8 and Y = 2X - 2 intersect on the graph.

To find the solutions to the equation X^2/2 - 8 = 2X - 2, we need to set the two equations equal to each other and solve for X.

The equation is:

X^2/2 - 8 = 2X - 2

To simplify the equation, let's multiply both sides by 2 to eliminate the fraction:

X^2 - 16 = 4X - 4

Next, we rearrange the equation to have all terms on one side:

X^2 - 4X - 12 = 0

Now, we can solve this quadratic equation by factoring, completing the square, or using the quadratic formula. Let's use factoring in this case:

(X - 6)(X + 2) = 0

Setting each factor equal to zero gives us two possible solutions:

X - 6 = 0 --> X = 6

X + 2 = 0 --> X = -2

So the solutions to the equation X^2/2 - 8 = 2X - 2 are X = 6 and X = -2.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

12 = - 7x - x² ( add x² to both sides )

x² + 12 = - 7x ( add 7x to both sides )

x² + 7x + 12 = 0 ← in standard form

consider the factors of the constant term (+ 12) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 7)

the factors are + 4 and + 3 , then

(x + 4)(x + 3) = 0 ← in factored form

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4

x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3

solutions are x = - 4 and x = - 3

with a = - 4 and b = - 3

then

a² + b² + a + b

= (- 4)² + (- 3)² + (- 4) + (- 3)

What was your BAC or state if your DUI was drug related or a refusal?

Answers

If you are ever charged with a DUI, it is important to seek legal counsel and understand your rights and options for Defense.

Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) is a measure of the amount of alcohol present in a person's bloodstream. In most states, it is illegal to operate a motor vehicle with a BAC of 0.08% or higher. For drivers under the age of 21, the legal BAC limit is often lower, usually 0.02% or 0.01%.A DUI (driving under the influence) charge can result from operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of drugs or alcohol, with a BAC above the legal limit, or with impairing substances in the bloodstream. If a person refuses to take a chemical test (such as a breathalyzer or blood test) to determine their BAC, they may still be charged with DUI based on other evidence of impairment such as the officer's observations, field sobriety tests, or witness statements.DUI charges can have serious consequences, including fines, license suspension, and possible imprisonment. The severity of the charges and penalties may vary depending on the individual's BAC, the presence of drugs in their system, and other factors such as prior DUI convictions or injuries caused by the impaired driving.

In conclusion, it is always important to make responsible decisions when it comes to operating a motor vehicle and to avoid consuming drugs or alcohol before getting behind the wheel. If you are ever charged with a DUI, it is important to seek legal counsel and understand your rights and options for defense.

Look for Relationships Does increasing the
3 to 6 change the mode? If so, how?

Answers

Increasing the value from 3 to 6 can potentially change the mode of a dataset. The mode represents the most frequently occurring value(s) in a dataset. If there are no repeated values or if the repeated values remain the same, then increasing the value from 3 to 6 will not change the mode. If there are new values introduced or if the frequency of certain values changes as a result of increasing the value, then the mode may indeed change.

1. Identify the initial dataset: Take note of the dataset where the mode is currently determined based on a value of 3.

2. Determine the mode: Calculate the mode of the dataset when the value is 3. The mode represents the most frequently occurring value(s) in the dataset.

3. Increase the value to 6: Modify the dataset by increasing the value from 3 to 6.

4. Analyze the dataset: Examine the modified dataset to observe any changes in the frequency distribution of values.

5. Compare the modes: Calculate the mode of the modified dataset with the value of 6 and compare it to the initial mode.

6. Assess changes: If the mode remains the same, it implies that the most frequently occurring value(s) in the dataset did not change. However, if the mode differs from the initial mode, it indicates that the increase from 3 to 6 has affected the frequency distribution and altered the most frequently occurring value(s).

7. Determine the impact: Analyze the specific changes in the dataset that led to the mode alteration. Identify any newly introduced values or shifts in the frequency of existing values.

8. Conclude: Based on the comparison of the initial mode and the mode with the increased value, determine whether increasing from 3 to 6 has changed the mode and describe the nature of the change.

solve for x and y in the equation shown

Answers

Answer:

x = 13 and y = (7 - 3x) / (-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for X

The given equation is:

3x - 7 = 2x + 6

To solve for x, we can simplify and rearrange the equation as follows:

3x - 2x = 6 + 7 (subtracting 2x and adding 7 to both sides)

x = 13 (combining like terms)

Therefore, the solution to the given equation is x = 13.

Thus, the correct answer is 13.

The given equation is:

3x - 2y = 7

solving for y

To solve for y, we need to isolate y on one side of the equation.

First, we can subtract 3x from both sides of the equation:

3x - 3x - 2y = 7 - 3x

Simplifying, we get:

-2y = 7 - 3x

Next, we can divide both sides by -2 to get y by itself:

y = (7 - 3x) / (-2)

Therefore, the solution for y is y = (7 - 3x) / (-2).

Thus, the above is the solution for y.

What is the y-intercept of f(x) = (1/2)^x?​

Answers

The y-intercept of [tex]f(x) = (1/2)^x[/tex] is option d D. (0, 1)

To find the y-intercept of a function, we need to evaluate the function when x = 0. In the given function f(x) = (1/2)^x, we substitute x = 0 and calculate the corresponding y-value.

f(0) = [tex](1/2)^0[/tex] = 1

Therefore, the y-intercept of the function is the point (0, 1). This means that when x is 0, the function has a y-value of 1.

The y-intercept represents the point where the function intersects the y-axis, which corresponds to the value of the function when x is 0. In this case, as x approaches 0, the value of [tex](1/2)^x[/tex] approaches 1. This is because any number raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1.

Option D. (0, 1) correctly represents the y-intercept of the function f(x) = [tex](1/2)^x[/tex]. The point (0, 1) indicates that when no units of the base (1/2) are multiplied together, the result is 1.

The other options (A. (0, 0), B. (1, 1/2), and C. (1, 0)) do not correctly represent the y-intercept because they either have incorrect y-values or are not on the y-axis (x ≠ 0). The y-intercept specifically refers to the point where the function crosses the y-axis, which occurs when x = 0.

2. Use the substitution method to solve this linear system:
(1) 8x + y = -458 (2) -5x + 3y = 221

Answers

1. In the equations provided, the like terms are 6x and -3x. They are related because they both represent the coefficient of x in their respective equations. Similarly, 4y and 5y are like terms because they represent the coefficient of y in their respective equations.

2. To solve the linear system using the substitution method, we can solve one equation for one variable and substitute that expression into the other equation.

From equation (1):
8x + y = -458
=> y = -8x - 458

Substitute the value of y in equation (2):
-5x + 3(-8x - 458) = 221
Simplify:
-5x - 24x - 1374 = 221
Combine like terms:
-29x - 1374 = 221
Add 1374 to both sides:
-29x = 595
Divide by -29:
x = -20.5

Substitute the value of x into equation (1) to find y:
8(-20.5) + y = -458
-164 + y = -458
y = -458 + 164
y = -294

Therefore, the solution to the linear system is x = -20.5 and y = -294.

Answers

Q1. The standard error of the average sample weight when 15 participants are randomly selected for the sample is approximately 9.05 lbs.

Q2.  the probability that the average sample weight is greater than 185 lbs when 15 participants are randomly selected for the sample is approximately 0.8643, or 86.43%

Question 1:

To calculate the standard error of the average sample weight, we can use the formula:

Standard Error = Standard Deviation / √(Sample Size)

In this case, the standard deviation is given as 35 lbs and the sample size is 15 participants. Plugging in these values into the formula, we get:

Standard Error = 35 / √(15) ≈ 9.05 (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, the standard error of the average sample weight when 15 participants are randomly selected for the sample is approximately 9.05 lbs.

Question 2:

To calculate the probability that the average sample weight is greater than 185 lbs, we need to standardize the average sample weight using the standard error.

First, we calculate the z-score using the formula:

z = (Sample Mean - Population Mean) / Standard Error

The population mean is given as 175 lbs, the sample mean is 185 lbs, and the standard error is 9.05 lbs. Plugging in these values, we get:

z = (185 - 175) / 9.05 ≈ 1.10 (rounded to two decimal places)

Next, we use a standard normal distribution table or a calculator to find the probability corresponding to a z-score of 1.10. From the table, we find that the probability is approximately 0.8643.

Therefore, the probability that the average sample weight is greater than 185 lbs when 15 participants are randomly selected for the sample is approximately 0.8643, or 86.43% (rounded to two decimal places).

Answer:

a. My quadrilateral has four equal sides.

Must be: Rhombus.

Could be: Square.

b. My quadrilateral has two sets of parallel sides.

Must be: Parallelogram.

Could be:  Rectangle, Rhombus, Square

c. My quadrilateral has four right angles.

Must be: Rectangle.

Could be: Square.

Explanation:

a. A quadrilateral with four equal sides must be a rhombus. It could also be a square, but a square is a special type of rhombus, so a rhombus is the "must be" shape.

b. A quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides must be a parallelogram. It could also be a rectangle, a rhombus, or a square. However, a rectangle, rhombus, or square is also a parallelogram, so a parallelogram is the "must be" shape.

c. A quadrilateral with four right angles must be a rectangle. It could also be a square, but a square is a special type of rectangle, so a rectangle is the "must be" shape.

Answer:

a)  Must be a rhombus.
     Could be a square, a rectangle, a parallelogram, a trapezoid, or a kite.

b)  Must be a parallelogram.
     Could be a square, a rectangle, a kite, or a rhombus.

c)  Must be a rectangle.
     Could be a square, a kite, a rhombus or a parallelogram.

Step-by-step explanation:

The six basic types of quadrilaterals are:

Square: All interior angles are 90°. Side lengths are equal.Rectangle: All interior angles are 90°. Opposite sides lengths are equal.Rhombus: Side lengths are equal.Trapezoid: One pair of parallel sides.Parallelogram: Opposite sides are parallel.Kite: Two pairs of equal length sides (these sides are adjacent to each other).

a)  "My quadrilateral has four equal sides"

A quadrilateral by definition is a four-sided shape. Therefore, it is possible for all types of quadrilateral to have four equal sides. However, for it to be a square and a rhombus, it must have four equal sides.

The interior angles of a square are all right angles, and its opposite sides are parallel. So as we haven't been told anything about the interior angles of the quadrilateral, or if any of its sides are parallel, we can conclude that:

The quadrilateral must be a rhombus.The quadrilateral could be a square, a rectangle, a parallelogram, a trapezoid, or a kite.

b)  "My quadrilateral has two sets of parallel sides"

The types of quadrilateral that can have two sets of parallel sides are square, rectangle, rhombus, parallelogram and kite (all squares are kites).

The interior angles of a square and a rectangle are 90°.

The side lengths of a rhombus are congruent.

As we haven't been told anything about the interior angles or the side lengths of the quadrilateral, we can conclude that:

The quadrilateral must be a parallelogram.The quadrilateral could be a square, a rectangle, a kite, or a rhombus.

c)  "My quadrilateral has four right angles"

All quadrilaterals, apart from a trapezium, can have interior angles that are all right angles. However, for a quadrilateral to be a square or a rectangle, it must have interior angles that are right angles.

As we don't know if the side lengths of the quadrilateral are equal, we cannot know if it's a square. Therefore, we can conclude that:

The quadrilateral must be a rectangle.The quadrilateral could be a square, a kite, a rhombus or a parallelogram.

Note: It may be different in these cases.

Answer:

Rhombus

Rectangle

Parallelogram

Quadrilateral

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadrilateral is a polygon with four sides and four vertices. It is a closed two-dimensional figure formed by connecting four line segments. The interior angles of a quadrilateral add up to 360 degrees. Quadrilaterals can have various shapes and properties depending on the lengths of their sides and the angles between them. Examples of quadrilaterals include squares, rectangles, parallelograms, trapezoids, rhombuses, and kites.

The first shape has identical tick marks on each side, meaning that each side is equal in length. It does not have any interior angles marked, or any indication if any sides are parallel. Therefore, it is a rhombus.

All interior angles of the second shape are right angles. This means that adjacent sides are perpendicular, and therefore opposite sides are parallel. It does not have any indication of the lengths of the sides. Therefore, it is a rectangle.

The third shape has two sets of arrows on opposite sides, meaning that  each pair of opposite sides is parallel.  It does not have any interior angles marked. It does not have indication of the lengths of the sides, however, as the opposite sides are parallel, this means that the opposite sides will be equal in length. Therefore, it is a parallelogram.

The fourth shape does not have any markings to indicate the length of its sides, the measure of its interior angles, or if any sides are parallel. Therefore, it is a quadrilateral.

What is the measure of the unknown angle? A straight angle divided into a thirty-seven-degree angle and an unknown angle. 123° 127° 143° 147°

Answers

The measure of the unknown angle is 143 degrees.

To find the measure of the unknown angle, we need to use the properties of straight angles. A straight angle is a line, and it measures 180 degrees.

In this case, we have a straight angle divided into a 37-degree angle and an unknown angle. So, we can set up the equation:

37° + unknown angle = 180°

To solve for the unknown angle, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation.

Subtracting 37° from both sides of the equation:

unknown angle = 180° - 37°

Simplifying:

unknown angle = 143°

As a result, the unknown angle is 143 degrees in length.

Juana pilots a motorboat 30 miles upstream. The trip takes 5 hours. The next day it takes 3 hours to make the return trip downstream. Find the rate of the motorboat in still water and the rate of the current.​

Answers

The Rate of the motorboat in still water is 8 miles per hour, and the rate of the current is 2 miles per hour.

To solve this problem, let's denote the rate of the motorboat in still water as "b" and the rate of the current as "c".

When Juana is going upstream, she is going against the current, so her effective speed is reduced. The formula for the time it takes to travel a certain distance is distance divided by speed. Therefore, for the upstream trip:

Time = Distance / (Boat's speed - Current's speed)

5 = 30 / (b - c)   -- (1)

On the return trip downstream, Juana is going with the current, so her effective speed is increased. Therefore, for the downstream trip:

Time = Distance / (Boat's speed + Current's speed)

3 = 30 / (b + c)   -- (2)

We now have a system of two equations with two variables. We can solve this system to find the values of "b" and "c".

First, let's solve equation (1) for (b - c):

5 = 30 / (b - c)

(b - c) = 30 / 5

(b - c) = 6   -- (3)

Next, let's solve equation (2) for (b + c):

3 = 30 / (b + c)

(b + c) = 30 / 3

(b + c) = 10  -- (4)

Now, we have two equations (3) and (4) that represent the sum and difference of (b + c) and (b - c) respectively. We can solve this system of equations to find the values of "b" and "c".

Adding equations (3) and (4), we get:

2b = 6 + 10

2b = 16

b = 8

Substituting the value of "b" back into equation (3), we get:

(8 - c) = 6

c = 8 - 6

c = 2

Therefore, the rate of the motorboat in still water is 8 miles per hour, and the rate of the current is 2 miles per hour.

Answer:

7. a. 16 units         b. 96 square units.

8. 30 units

Step-by-step explanation:

7.

a. The perimeter of a rhombus is 40, and PR is 12.

This means that all four sides are equal, and each side is 10.

Since diagonal bisect each other creating right angle.

so

In ΔPMS

PS=10

PM=1/2 of PR= 1/2*12=6

Now by using Pythagoras theorem:

PS²=MS²+PM²

10²=MS²+6²

MS²=100-36

MS²=64

MS=[tex]\sqrt{64}=8[/tex]

Therefore, diagonal QS=2*MS=2*8=16 units

b.

Since the area of a rhombus is half the product of its diagonals. The diagonals of this rhombus are QS=16 and PR=12,

So, Area=1/2*PR*QS

=1/2*12*16

=96 square units.

8.

The perimeter of a rhombus is the total length of all four sides.

Since the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of one side of the rhombus.

let d1=9 and d2=12

[tex]s = \sqrt{(d1/2)^2 + (d2/2)^2}[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{(9/2)^2 + (12/2)^2}[/tex]

s=7.5

we have

P = 4s where p is perimeter

P=4*7.5

Therefore, the perimeter of the rhombus is 30 units.

Answer:

7a)  QS = 16 units

7b)  96 square units

8)  30 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 7a

The sides lengths of a rhombus are equal.

Therefore, if the rhombus has a perimeter of 40, each side length is 10, since 40 ÷ 4 = 10.

PQ = QR = RS = SP = 10

The diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular bisectors of each other.

Therefore, if PR is 12, then PM = 6.

Also, if QM + MS = QS, and QM = MS, then QS = 2·QM.

As the diagonals bisect each other at right angles, triangle PMQ is a right triangle, where:

PM = 6PQ = 10m∠PMQ = 90°

Using Pythagoras Theorem to find the length of QM:

[tex]PM^2+QM^2=PQ^2[/tex]

   [tex]6^2+QM^2=10^2[/tex]

   [tex]36+QM^2=100[/tex]

           [tex]QM^2=64[/tex]

             [tex]QM=8[/tex]

As QS = 2·QM, then:

[tex]QS = 2 \cdot 8[/tex]

[tex]QS = 16[/tex]

[tex]\hrulefill[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{\begin{minipage}{5 cm}\underline{Area of a rhombus} \\\\$A=\dfrac{1}{2}pq$\\\\where:\\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $p$ and $q$ are the diagonals.\\\end{minipage}}[/tex]

Therefore, given the diagonals of the rhombus are PR = 12 and QS = 16, the area of the rhombus is:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\textsf{Area}&=\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot 12 \cdot 16\\\\&=6 \cdot 16\\\\&=96\; \sf square\;units\end{aligned}[/tex]

If the diagonals are 9 and 12, the perimeter is:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\textsf{Perimeter}&=2\sqrt{9^2+12^2}\\&=2\sqrt{81+144}\\&=2\sqrt{225}\\&=2 \cdot 15\\&=30\end{aligned}[/tex]

Khosrowshahi has "dramatically reshaped Uber's famously "toxic" corporate culture" Discuss the validity of the statement above by explaining Khosrowshahis various approaches and characteristics that contributed to the transformation of Ubers organisational culture. (15) "Ubers culture reflected the personality of the person at the top: overly aggressive and willing to do anything to win" In light of the statement above, critically discuss the roles, functions and implications of organizational culture in business. Complete the Code You are given the following information about a program that someone else has written. temps is a list of integers selected_temps is an empty list stopping_criteria () is a function with the following definition def stopping_criteria (num) : ''' (num) -> bool Return True if stopping criteria is met. Otherwise return False Your job is to write code containing a loop to iterate through the elements of temps and if the stopping_criteria () applied on an element of temps is False, append the element to selected_temps and keep iterating. if you reach the end of temps, stop. if the stopping_criteria () applied on an element of temps is True, stop iterating and DO NOT append the element to selected_temps. The two questions below ask you to write a function, extract_nums, that does what is specified above, in two different ways. PART A [5 marks]: Complete the code specified above using a while-loop. def extract_nums (temps, selected_temps): '' ([num, num,...], [])-> None Type''' PART B [5 marks]: Complete the code specified above using a for-loop. def extract_nums (temps, selected_temps): ''' ([num, num, ...], [])-> None Type''' The purpose of this assignment is to support understanding of how to interpret and explain different values both statistically and graphically. . Think of three variables that use the following scales Define a class called Circle with data members radius, area, and circumference. The class has the following member functions void set(double); void get(double&, double&, double&) const; ;void print() const (void calculate Area void calculateCircumference(); The function print prints the values of the components. The function calculate Area calculates the area of the circle using the formula p/ where r is the radius. The function calculateCircumference calculates the circumference of the circle using the formula 2 pr. Hint: To find the value of p use the formula 4 * atan(1.0).
