Find the amount of the increase:
27800 - 23400 = 4,400
Find number of years: 2012 - 2008 = 4 years
Divide amount of change by number of years:
4,400 / 4 = 1,100 people per year.
Now there is a square city of unknown size with a gate at the center of each side. There is a tree 20 b from the north gate. That tree can be seen when one walks 14 bu from the south gate, turns west and walks 1775 bu. Find the length of each side of the city.
Answer:
The length of each side of the city is 250b
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]a = 20[/tex] --- tree distance from north gate
[tex]b =14[/tex] --- movement from south gate
[tex]c = 1775[/tex] --- movement in west direction from (b)
See attachment for illustration
Required
Find x
To do this, we have:
[tex]\triangle ADE \sim \triangle ACB[/tex] --- similar triangles
So, we have the following equivalent ratios
[tex]AE:DE = AB:CB[/tex]
Where:
[tex]AE = 20\\ DE = x/2 \\ AB = 20 + x + 14 \\ CB = 1775[/tex]
Substitute these in the above equation
[tex]20:x/2 = 20 + x + 14: 1775[/tex]
[tex]20:x/2 = x + 34: 1775[/tex]
Express as fraction
[tex]\frac{20}{x/2} = \frac{x + 34}{1775}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{40}{x} = \frac{x + 34}{1775}[/tex]
Cross multiply
[tex]x *(x + 34) = 1775 * 40[/tex]
Open bracket
[tex]x^2 + 34x = 71000[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]x^2 + 34x - 71000 = 0[/tex]
Expand
[tex]x^2 + 284x -250x - 71000 = 0[/tex]
Factorize
[tex]x(x + 284) -250(x + 284)= 0[/tex]
Factor out x + 284
[tex](x - 250)(x + 284)= 0[/tex]
Split
[tex]x - 250 = 0 \ or\ x + 284= 0[/tex]
Solve for x
[tex]x = 250 \ or\ x =- 284[/tex]
x can't be negative;
So:
[tex]x = 250[/tex]

1/5 = b
QUESTION 2
A board is 86 cm. in lenght and must be cut so that one piece is 20 cm. longer than the other piece
Find the lenght of each piece.
A26 cm and 60 cm
b. 33 cm and 53 cm
C 30 cm and 56 cm
d. 70 cm and 16 cm
One piece will be length x and the other piece will be 20 cm longer, so it will be x + 20 cm long.
Added together the length of these two boards will equal 86 cm. So you can write an equation:
x + (x + 20) = 86
Remove the parentheses and add the two x's together to get:
2x + 20 = 86
Subtract 20 from both sides:
2x = 66
Divide both sides by 2 and you have:
x = 33
The short piece is 33 cm and the other piece is 20 cm longer or 33 + 20 = 53 cm.

[tex](x,y)=(2,-1)[/tex] --------- [tex]R_{y=x}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex](x,y) = (-1,2)[/tex]
Required
[tex]R_{y-axis}[/tex]
[tex]R_{y=x}[/tex]
[tex]R_{y-axis}[/tex] implies that:

So, we have: (-1,2) becomes
[tex](x,y) = (1,2)[/tex]
[tex]R_{y=x}[/tex] implies that
[tex](x,y) = (y,x)[/tex]
So, we have: (-1,2) becomes

Emily, Yani and Joyce have a total of 3209 stickers. Yani has 2 times
as many stickers as Joyce. Emily has 279 more stickers than Yani. How
many more stickers does Emily have than Joyce?
Answer:
279+x
Step-by-step explanation:
Emily + Yani + Joyce=3209 stickers
if Yani has 2 times as many stickers as Joyce:this statement states that Joyce has x stickers and Yani has 2x stickers because x multiplied by 2"Emily has 279 more stickers than Yani":therefore the equation for Emily will be ;279+2xhow many stickers does Emily have than Joyce:
(279+2x)-(x)
279+2x-x
=279+x

Consider rolling a fair die twice and tossing a fair coin nineteen times. Assume that all the tosses and rolls are independent.
The chance that the total number of heads in all the coin tosses equals 9 is(Q)_____ , and the chance that the total number of spots showing in all the die rolls equals 9 is(Q)__________ The number of heads in all the tosses of the coin plus the total number of times the die lands with an even number of spots showing on top (Q)______(Choose A~E)
a. has a Binomial distribution with n=31 and p=50%
b. does not have a Binomial distribution
c. has a Binomial distribution with n=21 and p=50%
d. has a Binomial distribution with n=21 and p=1/6
e. has a Binomial distribution with n=31 and p=1/6
Answer:
Hence the correct option is option c has a Binomial distribution with n=21 and p=50%.
Step-by-step explanation:
1)
A coin is tossed 19 times,
P(Head)=0.5
P(Tail)=0.5
We have to find the probability of a total number of heads in all the coin tosses equals 9.
This can be solved using the binomial distribution. For binomial distribution,
P(X=x)=C(n,x)px(1-p)n-x
where n is the number of trials, x is the number of successes, p is the probability of success, C(n,x) is a number of ways of choosing x from n.
P(X=9)=C(19,9)(0.5)9(0.5)10
P(X=9)=0.1762
2)
A fair die is rolled twice.
Total number of outcomes=36
Possibilities of getting sum as 9
S9={(3,6),(4,5)(5,4),(6,3)}
The total number of spots showing in all the die rolls equals 9 =4/36=0.1111
3)
The event of getting a good number of spots on a die roll is actually no different from the event of heads on a coin toss since the probability of a good number of spots is 3/6 = 1/2, which is additionally the probability of heads. the entire number of heads altogether the tosses of the coin plus the entire number of times the die lands with a good number of spots has an equivalent distribution because the total number of heads in 19+2= 21 tosses of the coin. The distribution is binomial with n=21 and p=50%.
If a and b are positive numbers, find the maximum value of f(x) = x^a(2 − x)^b on the interval 0 ≤ x ≤ 2.
Answer:
The maximum value of f(x) occurs at:
[tex]\displaystyle x = \frac{2a}{a+b}[/tex]
And is given by:
[tex]\displaystyle f_{\text{max}}(x) = \left(\frac{2a}{a+b}\right)^a\left(\frac{2b}{a+b}\right)^b[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the function:
[tex]\displaystyle f(x) = x^a (2-x)^b \text{ where } a, b >0[/tex]
And we want to find the maximum value of f(x) on the interval [0, 2].
First, let's evaluate the endpoints of the interval:
[tex]\displaystyle f(0) = (0)^a(2-(0))^b = 0[/tex]
And:
[tex]\displaystyle f(2) = (2)^a(2-(2))^b = 0[/tex]
Recall that extrema occurs at a function's critical points. The critical points of a function at the points where its derivative is either zero or undefined. Thus, find the derivative of the function:
[tex]\displaystyle f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx} \left[ x^a\left(2-x\right)^b\right][/tex]
By the Product Rule:
[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} f'(x) &= \frac{d}{dx}\left[x^a\right] (2-x)^b + x^a\frac{d}{dx}\left[(2-x)^b\right]\\ \\ &=\left(ax^{a-1}\right)\left(2-x\right)^b + x^a\left(b(2-x)^{b-1}\cdot -1\right) \\ \\ &= x^a\left(2-x\right)^b \left[\frac{a}{x} - \frac{b}{2-x}\right] \end{aligned}[/tex]
Set the derivative equal to zero and solve for x:
[tex]\displaystyle 0= x^a\left(2-x\right)^b \left[\frac{a}{x} - \frac{b}{2-x}\right][/tex]
By the Zero Product Property:
[tex]\displaystyle x^a (2-x)^b = 0\text{ or } \frac{a}{x} - \frac{b}{2-x} = 0[/tex]
The solutions to the first equation are x = 0 and x = 2.
First, for the second equation, note that it is undefined when x = 0 and x = 2.
To solve for x, we can multiply both sides by the denominators.
[tex]\displaystyle\left( \frac{a}{x} - \frac{b}{2-x} \right)\left((x(2-x)\right) = 0(x(2-x))[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]\displaystyle a(2-x) - b(x) = 0[/tex]
And solve for x:
[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} 2a-ax-bx &= 0 \\ 2a &= ax+bx \\ 2a&= x(a+b) \\ \frac{2a}{a+b} &= x \end{aligned}[/tex]
So, our critical points are:
[tex]\displaystyle x = 0 , 2 , \text{ and } \frac{2a}{a+b}[/tex]
We already know that f(0) = f(2) = 0.
For the third point, we can see that:
[tex]\displaystyle f\left(\frac{2a}{a+b}\right) = \left(\frac{2a}{a+b}\right)^a\left(2- \frac{2a}{a+b}\right)^b[/tex]
This can be simplified to:
[tex]\displaystyle f\left(\frac{2a}{a+b}\right) = \left(\frac{2a}{a+b}\right)^a\left(\frac{2b}{a+b}\right)^b[/tex]
Since a and b > 0, both factors must be positive. Thus, f(2a / (a + b)) > 0. So, this must be the maximum value.
To confirm that this is indeed a maximum, we can select values to test. Let a = 2 and b = 3. Then:
[tex]\displaystyle f'(x) = x^2(2-x)^3\left(\frac{2}{x} - \frac{3}{2-x}\right)[/tex]
The critical point will be at:
[tex]\displaystyle x= \frac{2(2)}{(2)+(3)} = \frac{4}{5}=0.8[/tex]
Testing x = 0.5 and x = 1 yields that:
[tex]\displaystyle f'(0.5) >0\text{ and } f'(1) <0[/tex]
Since the derivative is positive and then negative, we can conclude that the point is indeed a maximum.
Therefore, the maximum value of f(x) occurs at:
[tex]\displaystyle x = \frac{2a}{a+b}[/tex]
And is given by:
[tex]\displaystyle f_{\text{max}}(x) = \left(\frac{2a}{a+b}\right)^a\left(\frac{2b}{a+b}\right)^b[/tex]

Answer:
1+3x = -89x = -30Step-by-step explanation:
If we let x represent "a number", then "three times a number" is 3x. The usm of that and 1 is ...
1 +3x . . . . . . the sum of 1 and 3 times a number
That is said to be -89, so we have the equation ...
1 +3x = -89
__
To solve this equation, we can subtract 1 from both sides:
3x = -90
Then we can divide by 3 to find x.
(3x)/3 = -90/3
x = -30

Question
Express all real numbers less than -2 or greater than or equal to 3 in interval notation.
Real numbers can be expressed using the following interval,
[tex]\mathbb{R}=(-\infty,\infty)[/tex]
Of course infinities are not just normal infinities but thats out of the scope of this question.
Real numbers less than two can be expressed with,
[tex](-\infty,\infty)\cap(-\infty,-2)=\boxed{(-\infty,-2)}[/tex]
The [tex]\cap[/tex] is called intersection ie. where are both intervals valid. First we took real numbers then we intersected them with real numbers valued less than -2 and we got real numbers which are less than -2.
Similarly we can perform with "greater than or equal to 3" real numbers,
[tex](-\infty,\infty)\cap[3,\infty)=\boxed{[3,\infty)}[/tex]
So we have one interval stretching from negative infinity to (but not including) -2, and another interval stretching from including 3 to positive infinity.
If we want numbers in both intervals we can express this two ways,
First way is to use [tex]\cup[/tex] union operator to denote we want numbers from two intervals,
[tex]\boxed{(-\infty,2)\cup[3,\infty)}[/tex]
The second way is to specify which numbers we do not want, we do not want -2 and everything up to but not including 3, which is expressed with the following interval
[tex][-2,3)[/tex]
Now we just take out the not wanted interval from real numbers and we will remain with all wanted numbers,
[tex]\boxed{(-\infty,\infty)-[-2,3)}[/tex]
Hope this helps.
Alice and Bob each choose a number uniformly (and independently) from the interval [0, 10]. What is the probability that the absolute value of the difference between their two numbers is less than 1/4
Answer:
The probability is zero (0)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
interval of numbers to be chosen = 0, 1, 2, 3 , 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 , 10
total possible outcome = 11
The possible numbers whose absolute difference is greater than ¹/₄ includes the following;
(0,1), (1,2), (2,3), (3,4), (4,5), (5,6), (6,7), (7,8), (8,9), (9,10), (10,0)
The probability of this = 11 / 11 = 1
The probability that the absolute value of the difference between their two numbers is less than 1/4
[tex]P(less \ than \ \frac{1}{4} ) = 1 - P(greater \ than \ \frac{1}{4} )\\\\P(less \ than \ \frac{1}{4} ) = 1 - 1 \\\\P(less \ than \ \frac{1}{4} ) = 0[/tex]
