Question: find the x- or t intercepts of the polynomial function:
c(t)=2(t-4)(t+1)(t-6).
Solution:
the t-intercept (zeros of the function) of the given polynomial function occurs when c (t) = 0, that is when:
[tex]c(t)\text{ = 0 = }2\mleft(t-4\mright)\mleft(t+1\mright)\mleft(t-6\mright)[/tex]this can only happen when any of the factors of the polynomial are zero:
t-4 = 0, that is when t = 4
t + 1 = 0 , that is when t = -1
and
t-6 = 0, that is when t = 6.
then, we can conclude that the t-intercept (zeros of the function) of the given polynomial are
t = 4, t = -1 and t = 6.

In the diagram below, quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in circle P.What is m< DCB?
ANSWER
A) 70º
EXPLANATION
In quadrilaterals inscribed in a circle, opposite angles are supplementary - their measures add up 180º. Therefore:
[tex]\begin{gathered} m\angle DAB+m\angle DCB=180º \\ 110º+m\angle DCB=180º \\ m\angle DCB=180º-110º \\ m\angle DCB=70º \end{gathered}[/tex]I need help with this question... the correct answer choice
Since the polygon shown is a regular one, a rotation will carry it onto for every angle that makes a vertex to the place of another vertex.
So, we can fisrt figure the angle we need to rotate to get a vertex onto the next one, that is, we want to find the following angle:
We know tha the polygon is regular, so this angles is the same as the angles between the other consecutive vertexes. Since we have 5 vertexes, this angle is 1/5 of the role 360°. So, this angles is:
[tex]\frac{360\degree}{5}=72\degree[/tex]That means that a rotation of 72° will always endup in the same figure.
This also means that a rotation of any multiple of 72° will also end up in the same figure.
Thus, we just have to check which alternative is a multiple of 72°.
- 60° isn't a multiple, because it is lower.
- 108° also isn't because the 2*72 = 144, which is higher than 108°.
- 540° isn't, because 7*72 = 504 and 576, which passed through 540°
- 216° is a multiple because 3*72 = 216 exactly.
This means that if we rotate the figure by 210° it will end up in the same figure.
So, the correct alternative is the last one: 216°.
solve the equation: y+2.4=15.6
Use the properties of equalities to solve the given equation:
[tex]y+2.4=15.6[/tex]Substract 2.4 from both sides of the equation:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y+2.4-2.4=15.6-2.4 \\ \Rightarrow y=13.2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the solution to the equation is:
[tex]y=13.2[/tex]5 Three pipes are connected to a water tank. One of the pipes can fill the tank in 30 minutes. The second pipe can fill it in 20 minutes. The third pipe can fill the tank in 40 minutes. How long will it take to fill the tank if all three pipes are opened together? If the slowest pipe is shut off after 3 minutes and the fastest pipe is shut off 3 minutes later, how long will it take the remaining open pipe to finish filling the tank?
Let's call the total volume of the tank as V. The rate each pipe fills the tank is given by the total volume of the tank divided by the amount of time it takes to fill the tank. Let's call the rate of the first pipe as r1, the rate of the second pipe as r2 and the rate of the third pipe as r3.
[tex]\begin{gathered} r_1=\frac{V}{30} \\ r_2=\frac{V}{20} \\ r_3=\frac{V}{40} \end{gathered}[/tex]The product between the rate and the time that has passed will give to us the fraction of the tank that has been filled. When we open the three pipes at once, we sum their rates. When the tank is filled, the product between the rate and the time passed must give the total volume of the tank, therefore, we have the following equation:
[tex]\begin{gathered} (\frac{V}{30}+\frac{V}{20}+\frac{V}{40})t=V \\ \frac{13V}{120}t=V \\ \frac{13}{120}t=1 \\ t=\frac{120}{13} \\ t=9.23076923077... \\ t\approx9.23 \end{gathered}[/tex]It will take approximately 9.23 minutes to fill the tank if all pipes are opened together.
When the three pipes are opened, the fraction that has been filled(let's call it as x) is given by:
[tex]\begin{gathered} (\frac{1}{30}+\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{40})\cdot3=x \\ x=\frac{13}{40} \end{gathered}[/tex]Then, the slowest pipe(the third pipe) is closed, then, after 3 more minutes we're going to fill an extra y amount of water, given by:
[tex]\begin{gathered} (\frac{1}{30}+\frac{1}{20})\cdot3=y \\ \frac{1}{10}+\frac{3}{20}=y \\ \frac{5}{20}=y \\ y=\frac{1}{4} \end{gathered}[/tex]Then, after a time t with the first pipe open, we're going to fill the tank(remember that it has been filled already by the amounts x and y, therefore, we must subtract it from the total volume).
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{30}\cdot t=1-\frac{13}{40}-\frac{1}{4} \\ \frac{t}{30}=\frac{27}{40}-\frac{10}{40} \\ t=30\cdot\frac{17}{40} \\ t=12.75 \end{gathered}[/tex]If the slowest pipe is shut off after 3 minutes and the fastest pipe is shut off 3 minutes later, it will take 12.75 minutes for the remaining open pipe to finish filling the tank.
2. Given that the indicated lines in figure 10.30(a) are parallel, determine the unknown angles without actually measuring them. Explain your reasoning briefly.
The opposie angles are equal
c is opposite to a, so
[tex]c=a=34^o[/tex]The angle p is opposite to that of n, so
[tex]p=118^o[/tex]The total angle of rotation in a line is 180°. so,
[tex]o=180-118=62[/tex]This o is the oppsite to m, and hence m=o.
similarly,
[tex]d=180-34=146[/tex]And hence, b=d=146
Find each value if f(x) = 2x - 1 and g(x) = 2 - x2.9. f(0)
ANSWER
f(0) = -1
EXPLANATION
We just have to replace x by 0 into f(x):
[tex]\begin{gathered} f(x)=2x-1 \\ f(0)=2\cdot0-1 \\ f(0)=0-1 \\ f(0)=-1 \end{gathered}[/tex]Given sinx= 5/13 andπ/2 < x < π find the exact value of tan 2x
Given sin(x)=5/13
First, lets find cos(x).
It is known that:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \sin ^2(x)+\cos ^2(x)=1 \\ (\frac{5}{13})^2+\cos ^2(x)=1 \\ \cos ^2(x)=1-\frac{25}{169} \\ \cos ^2(x)=\frac{169-25}{169}=\frac{144}{169} \\ \cos (x)=\pm\sqrt[]{\frac{144}{169}}\text{ = }\frac{\sqrt[]{144}}{\sqrt[]{169}} \\ \cos (x)=\pm\frac{12}{13} \end{gathered}[/tex]Since π/2 < x < π, we are in 2nd quadrant. Then, cos(x) is negative.
[tex]\cos (x)=-\frac{12}{13}[/tex]Since we know the values for sin and cos, we can find tan(x):
[tex]\begin{gathered} \tan (x)=\frac{\sin(x)}{\cos(x)} \\ \tan (x)=\frac{\frac{5}{13}}{-\frac{12}{13}} \\ \tan (x)==-\frac{5}{12} \end{gathered}[/tex]Now, lets work with the expression tan(2x)
It is known that:
[tex]\tan (2x)=\frac{2\tan(x)}{1-\tan^2(x)}[/tex]
Since we know tan(x), we can substitute in the expression above and find the value of tan(2x):
[tex]\begin{gathered} \tan (2x)=\frac{2\tan(x)}{1-\tan^2(x)} \\ \tan (2x)=\frac{2\cdot(-\frac{5}{12}_{})}{1-(-\frac{5}{12})^2} \\ \tan (2x)=\frac{-\frac{10}{12}}{1-\frac{25}{144}}=\frac{-\frac{10}{12}}{\frac{144-25}{144}}=\frac{-\frac{10}{12}}{\frac{119}{144}}=-\frac{10}{12}\cdot\frac{144}{119} \\ \tan (2x)=-\frac{120}{119} \end{gathered}[/tex]Answer: -120/119
can two rays be put together to form a line
ANSWER:
Only in the case that the rays are opposite.
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
We have that a ray is part of a line that has an end point and continues infinitely in a single direction.
Therefore, a pair of opposite rays are two rays that have the same end point and extend in opposite directions. So together a pair of opposing rays always form a straight line.
Graphically a ray and a line are like this:
Answer: if the rays are opposite they will always form a straight line but if the are not opposite they will not form a line
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose Piper eats out twice a week 15% of the time, she eats out once a week 35% of the time, and she does not eat out any time during the week 50% of the time.What is the expected value for the number of times Piper eats out during the week? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth if needed.
Solution
We are given
Probability of eating out twice in a week = 15% = 0.15
Probability of eating out once in a week = 35% = 0.35
Probability of not eating out in a week = 50% = 0.50
Let X be a random variable of the number of times Piper eats out in a week
So we have the table
Note: The Formula For finding the Expected value E(X) is given by
[tex]E(X)=\sum ^{}_{}xp(x)[/tex]Substituting we get
[tex]\begin{gathered} E(X)=0(0.50)+1(0.35)+2(0.15) \\ E(X)=0+0.35+0.30 \\ E(X)=0.65 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the expected value is
[tex]E(X)=0.65[/tex]The strength of a beam varies inversely with the square of its length. If a 10-foot beam can support 500 pounds how many pounds can a 13 foot beam support? Round the answer to the nearest pound.
The beam varies inversely with the square of it's length. Let's call S the strength and L the length.
Then we can write:
[tex]S=\frac{k}{L^2}[/tex]For a constant k.
Then, we know that if L = 10ft then S = 500 pounds
We write:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 500=\frac{k}{(10)^2} \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]And solve for k:
[tex]k=500\cdot10^2=500\cdot100=50,000[/tex]Then the inverse relation equation is:
[tex]S=\frac{50,000}{L^2}[/tex]Then, for L = 13ft, the strength is:
[tex]S=\frac{50,000}{13^2}=\frac{50,000}{169}=295.857[/tex]To the nearest pound, a beam of 13ft can support 296 pounds.

Given:
The slope of the line is m = -2.
The line passes throught the point (6,-9).
The objective is to find the equation of line.
Explanation:
Consider the point as,
[tex](x_1,y_1)=(6,-9)[/tex]The general equation to find the equation of line in slope intercept form is,
[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]Substitution:
On plugging the given values in the general equation,
[tex]\begin{gathered} y-(-9)=-2(x-6) \\ y+9=-2x+12 \\ y=-2x+12-9 \\ y=-2x+3 \end{gathered}[/tex]Here, slope of the line is -2 and y- intercept is 3.
Hence, the equation of the line in slope intercept form is y = -2x + 3.

It is known that the lengths of trout (centimetres) in dams in North America is Normally distributed with a standard deviation of 5 cm. For monitoring purposes, a sample of 15 trout were captured, measured and released. The sample gave a mean of 50 cm and a standard deviation of 2 cm.The 99% confidence interval for the population average length of trout isSelect one:a.(49.3 ; 50.2)b.(49.2 ; 50.9)c.(46.7 ; 53.3)d.(47.8 ; 52.3)e.(46.2 ; 53.8)
The average length of the trout in the area with a 99% confidence interval is between 46.7 cm and 53.3 cm.
The distribution used should be t distribution as the sample standard deviation is to be used.
We need to build the 99% confidence interval for the population mean . The following information is provided:
Sample Mean = 50
Sample Standard Deviation = 2 cm
Sample Size = 15
The confidence interval for the trout population is computed as shown below:
[tex]\Pr \left({\bar {X}}-{\frac {cS}{\sqrt {n}}}\leq \mu \leq {\bar {X}}+{\frac {cS}{\sqrt {n}}}\right)=0.99\,[/tex]
now we will substitute the values in the equation of the CI.
[tex]{\bar {X}}-{\frac {2.7}{\sqrt {15}}}\leq \mu \leq {\bar {X}}+{\frac {2.7}{\sqrt {15}}}=0.99\,[/tex]
now solving for the confidence interval we get : 47.8 ; 52.3
Lower limit = 50 - 3.307 = 46.69 ≈ 46.7
upper limit = 50 + 3.307 = 53.307 ≈ 53.3
Hence the average length of the trout in the area is between 46.7 cm and 53.3 cm.
