Section 1 Mathematics Multiple-C 6 Isla can run 800 metres in 10 minutes. At this rate, how many kilometres can she run in 50 minutes?​

Answers

To find out how many kilometers Isla can run in 50 minutes, we can use a proportion based on her running rate.

We know that Isla can run 800 meters in 10 minutes. Let's set up a proportion to find the distance she can run in 50 minutes:

Distance in meters / Time in minutes = Distance in meters / Time in minutes

800 meters / 10 minutes = x kilometers / 50 minutes

To solve for x, we cross-multiply and then divide:

(800 meters) * (50 minutes) = (10 minutes) * x kilometers

40,000 meters = 10x kilometers

Dividing both sides by 10:

40,000 meters / 10 = x kilometers

4,000 meters = x kilometers

Therefore, Isla can run 4,000 meters (or 4 kilometers) in 50 minutes.

I hope this helps! :)

find inverse of function y=x2 x>=0

Answers

Answer:

The inverse function is:

f(x)=√x−2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse function of y=f(x) you have to transform the formula to calculate x in terms of y.

y=x2+2

x2=y−2

x=√y−2

Now we can change the letters to follow the convention that x is the independent variable and y is the function's value:

y=√x−2

You have to calculate the domain of the result function.

Here you have the expression under square root sign, so the domain is the set where x−2≥0

x−2≥0⇒x≥2

Ryan is building two gardens.
The flower garden is 6 feet long
and 4 feet wide. The vegetable
garden is the same length as the
flower garden. The area of the
flower garden is half the area of
the vegetable garden. What is the
width of the vegetable garden?

Answers

The width of the vegetable garden is 8 feet.

To determine the width of the vegetable garden.

Given information:

Flower garden length = 6 feet

Flower garden width = 4 feet

Vegetable garden length = Flower garden length

Area of the flower garden = half the area of the vegetable garden

To find the width of the vegetable garden, we need to find the area of both gardens.

Area of the flower garden = length × width

Area of the flower garden = 6 feet × 4 feet

Area of the flower garden = 24 square feet

Since the area of the flower garden is half the area of the vegetable garden, we can set up the following equation:

24 square feet = (1/2) × Area of the vegetable garden

To solve for the area of the vegetable garden, we multiply both sides of the equation by 2:

2 × 24 square feet = Area of the vegetable garden

48 square feet = Area of the vegetable garden

Now that we know the area of the vegetable garden is 48 square feet, we can find the width.

Area of the vegetable garden = length × width

48 square feet = 6 feet × width

To solve for the width of the vegetable garden, we divide both sides of the equation by 6:

48 square feet / 6 feet = width

8 feet = width

Therefore, the width of the vegetable garden is 8 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The quickest way to sketch the given functions, given that the coordinate plane is restricted to -5 ≤ x ≤ 5, is to substitute the values of x into the functions to find the points for the given interval. Plot these points on the given coordinate plane, and draw a continuous curve through the points.

Part (a)

Given function:

[tex]y=\dfrac{5}{x}-2, \quad x > 0[/tex]

Substitute the values of x = 1, x = 2, x = 3, x = 4 and x = 5 into the function:

[tex]\begin{aligned}x=1 \implies y&=\dfrac{5}{1}-2\\&=5-2\\&=3\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}x=2 \implies y&=\dfrac{5}{2}-2\\&=2.5-2\\&=0.5\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}x=3 \implies y&=\dfrac{5}{3}-2\\&=-0.333...\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}x=4 \implies y&=\dfrac{5}{4}-2\\&=1.25-2\\&=-0.75\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}x=5 \implies y&=\dfrac{5}{5}-2\\&=1-2\\&=-1\end{aligned}[/tex]

Plot the points (1, 3), (2, 0.5), (3, -0.333...), (4, -0.75) and (5, -1) on the given coordinate plane and draw a continuous curve through them.

End behaviour:

As x approaches 0 from the positive side, x tends to ∞.As x approaches ∞, y approaches -2.

[tex]\hrulefill[/tex]

Part (b)

Given function:

[tex]y=\dfrac{-2}{x+1}+3, \quad x < -1[/tex]

Substitute the values of x = -2, x = -3, x = -4 and x = -5 into the function:

[tex]\begin{aligned}x=-2 \implies y&=\dfrac{-2}{-2+1}+3\\&=2+3\\&=5\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}x=-3 \implies y&=\dfrac{-2}{-3+1}+3\\&=1+3\\&=4\end{aligned}[/tex]

Essay Question.
You are purchasing a new car. In order to determine which car will provide maximum savings, you’ve researched miles per gallon (mpg) ratings of cars. If gas is $3.45 per gallon and you drive an average of 18,000 miles per year, the following rational equation is given:

Answers

a. You will find the gallons of gas consumed by the old car in one year when you divide [tex]\frac{18,000}{old\;miles\;per\;gallon}[/tex].

b. The amount of dollars you would save in the first year by switching to the 27 mpg car is $1,150.

c. The amount of dollars you would save after 5 years is $5,750.

d. Yes, the additional savings in gas be worth the extra $3000 over a 5 year loan.

e. The gas mileage your new car would have to be if you saved $800 per year over your 18 mpg current car is 23.4 mpg.

How to evaluate the rational equation?

Based on the information provided about the car that would provide maximum savings, the following rational equation models the situation:

[tex]g(x)=3.45(\frac{18,000}{old\;miles\;per\;gallon})-3.45(\frac{18,000}{new\;miles\;per\;gallon})[/tex]

Note: "g(x) is used for calculating the amount of dollar savings for one year for driving a car that gets higher miles per gallon rate."

Part a.

Based on the rational equation, we can logically deduce that the expression [tex]\frac{18,000}{old\;miles\;per\;gallon}[/tex] would help to determine the gallons of gas consumed by the old car in one year.

Part b.

The amount of dollars you would save in the first year by switching to the 27 mpg car can be calculated as follows:

[tex]g(x)=3.45(\frac{18,000}{18})-3.45(\frac{18,000}{27})[/tex]

g(x) = 3,450 - 2,300

g(x) = $1,150.

Part c.

The amount of dollars you would save after five years can be calculated as follows:

f(5) = 5g(x)

f(5) = 5 × $1,150

f(5) = $5,750

Part d.

[tex]g(x)=3.45(\frac{18,000}{27})-3.45(\frac{18,000}{33})[/tex]

g(x) = 2,300 - 1,881.82

g(x) = $418.18.

f(5) = 5g(x)

f(5) = 5 × $418.18

f(5) = $2,090.9

Next, we would subtract the cost in 5 years as follows;

Difference = $5,750 - $2,090.9

Difference = $3,659.1.

Therefore, $3,659.1 is greater than $3,000, so an additional savings is worth it.

Part e.

Lastly, we would determine the gas mileage your new car would have to be if you saved $800 per year over your 18 mpg current car;

[tex]800=3.45(\frac{18,000}{18})-3.45(\frac{18,000}{y})[/tex]

800 = 3,450 - 62,100/y

62,100/y = 3,450 - 800

62,100/y = 2,650

y = 62,100/2,650

y = 23.4 mpg.

The researcher is using the General Social Survey which has the following questions:

Generally speaking, would you say that people can be trusted or that you can't be too careful in dealing with people? The response options for this variable are (Always trusted, Usually trusted, Usual not trusted, Always not trusted)

This trust variable is coded in the dataset with the name “cantrust”

In addition, in its demographic questions the GSS asks respondents to state their highest education degree achieved. The response options for this variable are: high school or less- college or higher. This educational attainment variable is coded “college” in the dataset.



Research question #1: What percentage of Americans believe strangers can always be trusted?



Create a frequency distribution table for the variable “cantrust”. Make sure you filter out all nonvalid responses (i.e. responses coded “IAP” or “NA” or are “Blank”).



Create and show a (relative) frequency distribution table

Calculate and interpret the 95% confidence interval and make a statement of what proportion of Americans say strangers can “always be trusted”


Explain why we go through the trouble of calculating margin of errors and confidence intervals.

Answers

The solution to all parts is shown below.

First, let's filter out all non-valid responses, such as "IAP" (Inapplicable), "NA" (Not Applicable), or "Blank."

Frequency distribution table for the variable "can trust":

| Response                | Frequency |

| Always trusted        |     x     |

| Usually trusted        |     y     |

| Usually not trusted  |    z    |

| Always not trusted  |     w     |

Relative frequency distribution table for the variable "cantrust":

| Response                | Relative Frequency |

| Always trusted        |         x/n        |

| Usually trusted        |         y/n        |

| Usually not trusted |       z/n       |

| Always not trusted  |         w/n        |

Pie chart with the distribution of responses:

To find the percentage of respondents who say strangers can be "always trusted," we calculate the relative frequency or proportion for the "Always trusted" category.

Percentage of respondents who say strangers can be "always trusted"

= (x/n) x 100%

Now, let's calculate the 95% confidence margin of error for the proportion of Americans who answer strangers can "always be trusted":

Margin of error = (z-score) (standard error)

The z-score depends on the desired confidence level. For a 95% confidence level, the z-score is approximately 1.96.

The standard error can be calculated as:

Standard error = √[(p (1 - p)) / n]

Once we have the margin of error, we can calculate the 95% confidence interval as follows:

Confidence interval = p ± margin of error

The confidence interval provides a range within which the true proportion of Americans who say strangers can be "always trusted" is likely to fall.

By interpreting margin of errors and confidence intervals is essential because survey data is collected from a sample rather than the entire population.

Using unit rate, the number of maters of copper wire produced in a 12 hour work day is 4554 m

What is unit rate?

Unit rate is the rate at which a unit of a obect is done

if a factor can produce 6.6 M of copper wire a minute. To determine how many meters of copper can the factory produce in 12-hour work day provided the factory stressed out for a half hour lunch​.

Now, we know that the factor produces 6.6 m of copper per minute. So, the unit rate is 6.6 m/min

Now since we have a 12 hour work day and and 1/2 hour lunch, the total time used to produce the copper wire is 12 h - 1/2 h = 12 h - 0.5 h = 11.5 h

We now convert this to minutes 11.5 h = 11.5 × 60 min

= 690 min

So, the number of meters of coppper wire produced in a 12 hour work day A = unit rate × time

= 6.6 m/min × 690 min

Item a:

The proportion is one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 16.8, hence:

Z = (16.8 - 12)/2.9

Z = 1.66.

Z = 1.66 has a p-value of 0.9515.

1 - 0.9515 = 0.0485, hence the percentage is of 4.85%.

Item b:

The proportion is the p-value of Z when X = 13.8, hence:

Z = (13.8 - 12)/2.9

Z = 0.62.

Z = 0.62 has a p-value of 0.7324.

Item c:

The proportion is the subtraction of the p-values, hence:

0.9515 - 0.7324 = 0.2191 = 21.91%.

2. The perimeter of a regular polygon is 72 feet. An exterior angle of the polygon measures 40°. Find the length of each side.

3. If the perimeter of a regular pentagon is 50 in. Find the area. Show a drawing and work please.

Answers

Answer:

1)  695.3 m²

2)  8 ft

3)  172.0 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1

To find the area of a regular polygon, we can use the following formula:

[tex]\boxed{\begin{minipage}{5.5cm}\underline{Area of a regular polygon}\\\\$A=\dfrac{s^2n}{4 \tan\left(\dfrac{180^{\circ}}{n}\right)}$\\\\\\where:\\\phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $n$ is the number of sides.\\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $s$ is the side length.\\\end{minipage}}[/tex]

Given the polygon is an octagon, n = 8.

Given each side measures 12 m, s = 12.

Substitute the values of n and s into the formula for area and solve for A:

[tex]\implies A=\dfrac{(12)^2 \cdot 8}{4 \tan\left(\dfrac{180^{\circ}}{8}\right)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies A=\dfrac{144 \cdot 8}{4 \tan\left(22.5^{\circ}\right)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies A=\dfrac{1152}{4 \tan\left(22.5^{\circ}\right)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies A=\dfrac{288}{\tan\left(22.5^{\circ}\right)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies A=695.29350...[/tex]

Therefore, the area of a regular octagon with side length 12 m is 695.3 m² rounded to the nearest tenth.

[tex]\hrulefill[/tex]

Question 2

The sum of an interior angle of a regular polygon and its corresponding exterior angle is always 180°.

If the exterior angle of a polygon measures 40°, then its interior angle measures 140°.

To determine the number of sides of the regular polygon given its interior angle, we can use this formula, where n is the number of sides:

[tex]\boxed{\textsf{Interior angle of a regular polygon} = \dfrac{180^{\circ}(n-2)}{n}}[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]\implies 140^{\circ}=\dfrac{180^{\circ}(n-2)}{n}[/tex]

[tex]\implies 140^{\circ}n=180^{\circ}n - 360^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\implies 40^{\circ}n=360^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\implies n=\dfrac{360^{\circ}}{40^{\circ}}[/tex]

[tex]\implies n=9[/tex]

Therefore, the regular polygon has 9 sides.

To determine the length of each side, divide the given perimeter by the number of sides:

[tex]\implies \sf Side\;length=\dfrac{Perimeter}{\textsf{$n$}}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf Side \;length=\dfrac{72}{9}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf Side \;length=8\;ft[/tex]

Therefore, the length of each side of the regular polygon is 8 ft.

[tex]\hrulefill[/tex]

Question 3

The area of a regular polygon can be calculated using the following formula:

[tex]\boxed{\begin{minipage}{5.5cm}\underline{Area of a regular polygon}\\\\$A=\dfrac{s^2n}{4 \tan\left(\dfrac{180^{\circ}}{n}\right)}$\\\\\\where:\\\phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $n$ is the number of sides.\\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $s$ is the side length.\\\end{minipage}}[/tex]

A regular pentagon has 5 sides, so n = 5.

If its perimeter is 50 inches, then the length of one side is 10 inches, so s = 10.

Substitute the values of s and n into the formula and solve for A:

[tex]\implies A=\dfrac{(10)^2 \cdot 5}{4 \tan\left(\dfrac{180^{\circ}}{5}\right)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies A=\dfrac{100 \cdot 5}{4 \tan\left(36^{\circ}\right)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies A=\dfrac{500}{4 \tan\left(36^{\circ}\right)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies A=\dfrac{125}{\tan\left(36^{\circ}\right)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies A=172.047740...[/tex]

Therefore, the area of a regular pentagon with perimeter 50 inches is 172.0 in² rounded to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

1.695.29 m^2

2.8 feet

3. 172.0477 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The area of a regular octagon can be found using the formula:

[tex]\boxed{\bold{Area = 2a^2(1 + \sqrt{2})}}[/tex]

where a is the length of one side of the octagon.

In this case, a = 12 m, so the area is:

[tex]\bold{Area = 2(12 m)^2(1 + \sqrt{2}) = 288m^2(1 + \sqrt2)=695.29 m^2}[/tex]

Therefore, the Area of a regular octagon is 695.29 m^2

2.

The formula for the exterior angle of a regular polygon is:

[tex]\boxed{\bold{Exterior \:angle = \frac{360^o}{n}}}[/tex]

where n is the number of sides in the polygon.

In this case, the exterior angle is 40°, so we can set up the following equation:

[tex]\bold{40^o=\frac{ 360^0 }{n}}[/tex]

[tex]n=\frac{360}{40}=9[/tex]

Therefore, the polygon has n=9 sides.

Perimeter=72ft.

We have

[tex]\boxed{\bold{Perimeter = n*s}}[/tex]

where n is the number of sides in the polygon and s is the length of one side.

Substituting Value.

72 feet = 9*s

[tex]\bold{s =\frac{ 72 \:feet }{ 9}}[/tex]

s = 8 feet

Therefore, the length of each side of the polygon is 8 feet.

3.

Solution:

A regular pentagon has five sides of equal length. If the perimeter of the pentagon is 50 in, then each side has a length = [tex]\bold{\frac{perimeter}{n}=\frac{50}{5 }= 10 in.}[/tex]

The area of a regular pentagon can be found using the following formula:

[tex]\boxed{\bold{Area = \frac{1}{4}\sqrt{5(5+2\sqrt{5})} *s^2}}[/tex]

where s is the length of one side of the Pentagon.

In this case, s = 10 in, so the area is:

[tex]\bold{Area= \frac{1}{4}\sqrt{5(5+2\sqrt{5})} *10^2=172.0477 in^2}[/tex]

Answers

The number that belongs in the green box is 57.8 degrees.

We are given that;

The triangle sides 11 12 20

Now,

The interior angles of a triangle always add up to 180 degrees. To find the interior angles of a triangle whose sides are 11 cm, 12 cm and 20 cm, we can use the law of cosines1.

Let’s call the angle opposite the side of length 11 cm as A, the angle opposite the side of length 12 cm as B, and the angle opposite the side of length 20 cm as C. Using the law of cosines, we can find that:

[tex]cos(A) = (b^2 + c^2 - a^2) / (2bc) = (12^2 + 20^2 - 11^2) / (2 * 12 * 20) = 0.55cos(B) = (a^2 + c^2 - b^2) / (2ac) = (11^2 + 20^2 - 12^2) / (2 * 11 * 20) = 0.6cos© = (a^2 + b^2 - c^2) / (2ab) = (11^2 + 12^2 - 20^2) / (2 * 11 * 12) = -0.45[/tex]

We can then use inverse cosine function to find the angles:

[tex]A = cos^-1(0.55) ≈ 57.8 degreesB = cos^-1(0.6) ≈ 53.1 degreesC = cos^-1(-0.45) ≈ 129.1 degrees[/tex]

The interior angles of this triangle are approximately 57.8 degrees, 53.1 degrees, and 129.1 degrees.

Therefore, by the angle answer will be 57.8 degrees.

The endpoints of segment XY are X(-2,3) and Y(7,4). The segment is translated along the vector <-3,1> and then rotated 90 degrees. What is the coordinate of X"?

Answers

The coordinate of point X" after translating segment XY along the vector <-3, 1> and then rotating it 90 degrees is X" (4, 5).

To find the coordinate of point X" after translating segment XY along the vector <-3, 1> and then rotating it 90 degrees, we need to follow these steps:

Translation: Add the components of the translation vector <-3, 1> to the coordinates of point X(-2, 3) to get the new coordinates of X'.

X' = (-2 + (-3), 3 + 1) = (-5, 4)

Now, we have the translated endpoint X'.

Rotation: To rotate the point X' by 90 degrees, we need to swap the x and y coordinates and negate the new x coordinate.

X" = (y-coordinate of X', -x-coordinate of X')

X" = (4, -(-5))

X" = (4, 5)

Therefore, the coordinate of point X" after translating segment XY along the vector <-3, 1> and then rotating it 90 degrees is X" (4, 5).

In summary, we first translate point X(-2, 3) along the vector <-3, 1> to get X' (-5, 4). Then, we rotate X' by 90 degrees to obtain X" (4, 5).

The difference of the same side interior angles of two parallel lines is 50 degrees. Find all angles

Answers

If the difference between the same side interior angles of two parallel lines is 50 degrees, we know that those angles must sum up to 180 degrees (because they are opposite each other).are supplementary angles. As a result, each of the four angles is 65 degrees, 115 degrees, 65 degrees, and 115 degrees..

Let's call one of the angles "x". Then, the other angle must be (x+50).

Now, let's look at the angles formed by a transversal intersecting those two parallel lines. There are eight angles in total, but we only need to find four of them since the other four are congruent (due to alternate interior angles being congruent).

The angles we need to find are:

1. x (one of the same side interior angles)

2. (x+50) (the other same side interior angle)

3. the corresponding angle to x (opposite x, on the other side of the transversal)

4. the corresponding angle to (x+50) (opposite (x+50), on the other side of the transversal)

Since corresponding angles are congruent when two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, we know that angles 3 and 4 are equal to angles 1 and 2, respectively.

To determine all four angles, we just solve for x:

x + (x+50) = 180

2x + 50 = 180

2x = 130

x = 65

Therefore, our four angles are:

1. x = 65 degrees

2. (x+50) = 115 degrees

3. the angle corresponding to x = 65 degrees

4. the corresponding angle to (x+50) = 115 degrees

The horseman rode slowly toward the west, stopping once or twice to examine the wide circle of the horizon with eyes that were trained to note every aspect of the wilderness. On his right the plains melted away in gentle swell after swell, until they met the horizon. On his left was the wide bed of a river which flowed through the sand, breaking here and there into several streams, and then reuniting, only to scatter its volume a hundred yards further into three or four channels. A bird of prey flew on strong wing over the water, but there was no other sign of life. The horseman looked most often into the south. His glances into the north were few and brief. His was an attractive face. He was young, only a boy, but the brow was broad and high, and the eyes, grave and steady. He was clad completely in buckskin. A rifle held in one hand lay across the pommel of his saddle and there were weapons in his belt. Two lights and blankets, folded closely, were tied behind him. The tanned face, strong figure showed a wonderful degree of health and strength. Several hours passed and the horseman rode on steadily though slowly. He never failed to search the plains on either side, but chiefly in the south. But the lonesome gray land, cut by the coiling yellow river, still rolled before him. It was the depth of the Texan winter, and, at times, icy gusts, born in far mountains, swept across the plains.
