Answers

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles add to 90

x+60 = 90

x+60-60 = 90-60

x = 30

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles sum up to 90 degrees. Thus, we can write that:

90=angle1+angle2

90-angle1=angle2

90-60=angle2

What is the domain of the square root function graphed below?

Answers

Answer:

Set the expression inside the square root greater than or equal to zero. We do this because only nonnegative numbers have a real square root, in other words, we can not take the square root of a negative number and get a real number, which means we have to use numbers that are greater than or equal to zero.

Step 2: Solve the equation found in step 1. Remember that when you are solving equations involving inequalities, if you multiply or divide by a negative number, you must reverse the direction of the inequality symbol.

Step 3: Write the answer using interval notation.

Gemma, a scuba diver, begins a dive on the side of a boat 4 feet above sea level. She descends 28 feet. Which integer represents Gemma’s position with respect to sea level?
–32

Answers

Answer:

-24 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Boat is 4 feet above sea level => +4 feet

She descends 28 feet => -28 feet

Position = +4-28 = -24 feet

Therefore,

Gemma is 24 feet below the sea level

Answer:

-24 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Because she is 4 feet above sea level, she can descend 4 feet to be at sea level. Now she only has to descend 24 feet below sea level, which is -24 feet.

Solve the following system of equations and show all work. y = 2x2-3 y = 7x + 1 (10 points)​

Answers

Answer:

x = -1/2 , y = -5/2

x = 4, y = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x² - 3

y = 7x + 1

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

set equal

2x² - 3 = 7x + 1

Subtract 7x + 1 from both sides

2x² - 7x - 4 = 0

Factor

(2x + 1)(x - 4) = 0

x = {-1/2, 4}

For x = -1/2

y = 7(-1/2) + 1

y = -5/2

(-1/2 , -5/2)

For x = 4

y = 7(4) + 1

y = 29

Preview
years.

Answers

Answer:

The time required is of 17.53 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound interest:

The compound interest formula is given by:

[tex]A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

Where A(t) is the amount of money after t years, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year and t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

Find the time required for an investment of 7,000 dollars to grow to 14,000 dollars at an interest rate of 4% per year, compounded monthly.

This is t for which [tex]A(t) = 14000[/tex], considering [tex]P = 7000, r = 0.04, n = 12[/tex]. So

[tex]A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

[tex]14000 = 7000(1 + \frac{0.04}{12})^{12t}[/tex]

[tex](1.0033)^{12t} = 2[/tex]

[tex]\log{(1.0033)^{12t}} = \log{2}[/tex]

[tex]12t\log{1.0033} = \log{2}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{\log{2}}{12\log{1.0033}}[/tex]

[tex]t = 17.53[/tex]

The time required is of 17.53 years.

A scientist is studying the growth of a particular species of plant. He writes the following equation to show the height of the plant f(n), in cm, after n days:


f(n) = 10(1.02)n


Part A: When the scientist concluded his study, the height of the plant was approximately 11.04 cm. What is a reasonable domain to plot the growth function? (4 points)


Part B: What does the y-intercept of the graph of the function f(n) represent? (2 points)


Part C: What is the average rate of change of the function f(n) from n = 1 to n = 5, and what does it represent? (4 points)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

11.04 = 10(1.02)^n

1.104 = 1.02^n

ln 1.104 = ln 1.02^n

ln 1.104 = n ln 1.02

n = ln 1.104/ ln 1.02

n = 4.99630409516

4.99 can be rounded to 5.

So a reasonable domain would be 0 ≤ x < 5

PART B)

f(0) = 10(1.02)^0

f(0) = 10(1)

f(0) = 10

The y-intercept represents the height of the plant when they began the experiment.

f(1) = 10(1.02)^1

f(1) = 10(1.02)

f(1) = 10.2

(1, 10.2)

f(5) = 10(1.02)^5

f(5) = 10(1.1040808)

f(5) = 11.040808

f(1)=10(1.02)^1

f(1)=10.2

Average rate= (fn2-fn1)/(n2-n1)

                     =11.04-10.2/(5-1)

                    =0.22

the average rate of change of the function f(n) from n = 1 to n = 5 is 0.22.  

Answer:

Part A

The domain should be 0 ≤n≤5

Part B

f(n) = 10(1.02)^n

The function is in the form y =a b^x  where a is the y intercept

The y intercept is 10.  This is the value when n =0 days.

Part C

The average rate of growth over the 4 days is .21 cm per day

Step-by-step explanation:

f(n) = 10(1.02)^n

Part A

Let f(n) = 11.04

11.04 = 10 * 1.02 ^n

Divide each side by 10

11.04/10 = 1.02^n

1.104 = 1.02^n

Taking the log of each side

log 1.104 = log 1.02^n

We know log a^b = b log a

log 1.104 = n log 1.02

log 1.104 / log 1.02 = n

4.99630=n

Rounding n to 5

The domain should be 0 ≤n≤5

Part B

f(n) = 10(1.02)^n

The function is in the form y =a b^x  where a is the y intercept

The y intercept is 10.  This is the value when n =0 days.

Part C

To find the average rate of change

f(5) - f(1)

-----------

5-1

f(5) = 11.04  

f(1) = 10 *1.02 =10.2

11.04 - 10.2

Complete the function, count_bases(s). It takes as input a DNA sequence as a string, s. It should compute the number of occurrences of each base (i.e., 'A', 'C', 'G', and 'T') in s. It should then return these counts in a dictionary whose keys are the bases.

Answers

Answer:

The function is as follows:

def count_bases(DNA_str):

   retDNA = {}

   for i in DNA_str:

       if i in retDNA:

           retDNA[i]+=1

       else:

           retDNA[i] = 1

   return retDNA

Step-by-step explanation:

This defines the function

def count_bases(DNA_str):

This initializes a dictionary

   retDNA = {}

This iterates through the dictionary

   for i in DNA_str:

If an item exists in the dictionary

       if i in retDNA:

The count is updated by 1

           retDNA[i]+=1

Otherwise

       else:

The count is set to 1

           retDNA[i] = 1

This returns the DAN

   return retDNA

Consider a fishery in which harvesting is taking placeat a constant rateh. The population at the fisherywill be modeled by

Required:
Find the general solution to this DE.

Answers

Answer:

The general solution to this differential equation is [tex]P(t) = \frac{Ke^{kt} + h}{k}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following differential equation:

[tex]\frac{dP}{dt} = kP - h[/tex]

Solving by separation of variables:

[tex]\frac{dP}{kP-h} = dt[/tex]

Integrating both sides:

[tex]\int \frac{dP}{kP-h} = \int dt[/tex]

On the left side, by substitution, u = kP - h, du = kDp, Dp = du/k. Then

[tex]\frac{1}{k} \ln{kP-h} = t + K[/tex]

In which K is the constant of integration.

[tex]\ln{kP-h} = kt + K[/tex]

[tex]e^{\ln{kP-h}} = e^{kt + K}[/tex]

[tex]kP - h = Ke^{kt}[/tex]

[tex]kP = Ke^{kt} + h[/tex]

[tex]P(t) = \frac{Ke^{kt} + h}{k}[/tex]

The general solution to this differential equation is [tex]P(t) = \frac{Ke^{kt} + h}{k}[/tex]

The points P and Q have coordinates (-1, 6) and (9, 0) respectively.
The line l is perpendicular to PQ and passes through the mid-point of PQ.
Find an equation for l, giving your answer in the form ax + by + c =0, where a, b and c are integers.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]3y - 5x +11=0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]P(x_1,y_1) = (-1,6)[/tex]

[tex]Q(x_2,y_2) = (9,0)[/tex]

Required

The equation of l

First, calculate the slope (m) of PQ

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{0-6}{9--1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{-6}{10}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{-3}{5}[/tex]

Since l is perpendicular to PQ, the slope of l is:

[tex]m_2 = -\frac{1}{m}[/tex]

[tex]m_2= -\frac{1}{-3/5}[/tex]

[tex]m_2 = \frac{5}{3}[/tex]

Next, calculate the midpoint of PQ

[tex]M = \frac{1}{2}(x_1 + x_2,y_1+y_2)[/tex]

[tex]M = \frac{1}{2}(-1+9,6+0)[/tex]

[tex]M = \frac{1}{2}(8,6)[/tex]

[tex]M = (4,3)[/tex]

The equation of l is:

[tex]y = m(x -x_1) + y_1[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{5}{3}(x -4) +3[/tex]

Multiply through by 3

[tex]3y = 5(x -4) +9[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]3y = 5x -20 +9[/tex]

[tex]3y = 5x -11[/tex]

Rewrite as:

Answer:

The null (H[tex]_{0}[/tex]) and alternative (H[tex]_{1}[/tex]) hypotheses can be stated as follows:

H[tex]_{0}[/tex]:  μ[tex]_{1}[/tex] = μ[tex]_{2}[/tex].

H[tex]_{1}[/tex]: μ[tex]_{1}[/tex] > μ[tex]_{2}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, the given assertion is that carpeted rooms have more bacteria than uncarpeted rooms, i.e. μ[tex]_{1}[/tex] > μ[tex]_{2}[/tex].

The assertion made in the question can either be the null hypothesis (H[tex]_{0}[/tex]) or the alternate hypothesis (H[tex]_{1}[/tex]). An equality must be present in the null hypothesis. The alternative hypothesis expresses the exact opposite of the null hypothesis if the claim is the null hypothesis.

Therefore, the null (H[tex]_{0}[/tex]) and alternative (H[tex]_{1}[/tex]) hypotheses can be stated as follows:

H[tex]_{0}[/tex]:  μ[tex]_{1}[/tex] = μ[tex]_{2}[/tex].
