Find the measure of a positive angle and a negative angle that are coterminal with 100° sketch of three angles labeling clearly with directional arrows.
Coterminal angles are different angles that have the same terminal side.
A positive angle has one turn more around so it has a measure of 100°+360° = 460°.
A negative angle will have a measure that is represented in clockwise rotation and be equal to 100° - 360° = -260°.
We can sketch an angle of measure 100°, a positive coterminal angle and a negative coterminal angle as:
The results of a survey show that the percent of adults in a certain town who want to add bike lanes to amajor roadway is in the interval (0.57, 0.65) (9 points)(a) What is the point estimate for the percent who want to add the bike lanes?(b) What is the poll's margin of error?(c) If the town's adult population is 31,526, what is the best estimate for the number of people whowould support the bike lanes?
If we know the confidence interval for the proportion, the point estimate will be at the center of this interval.
Then, we can calculate the point estimate p as the average between the boundaries of the interval:
[tex]p=\frac{0.57+0.65}{2}=\frac{1.22}{2}=0.61[/tex]The margin of error can be calculated, knowing the interval, as half the difference between the upper boundary and the lower boundary of the interval:
[tex]\text{MOE}=\frac{UB-LB}{2}=\frac{0.65-0.57}{2}=\frac{0.08}{2}=0.04[/tex]The margin of error is 0.04. This margin of error is also the absolute difference between any boundary of the interval and the point estimate.
If the town's population is 31,526, the best estimate for the number of people who
would support the bike lanes is to use the point estimate as the proportion:
[tex]X=p\cdot N=0.61\cdot31526\approx19231[/tex]Answer:
a) The point estimate is p=0.61
b) The margin of error is MOE = 0.04
c) The best estimate is X=19231

Linda is adding padding to all of the surfaces inside her attic for extra warmth in the winter.She needs to find the approximate surface area of the attic, including the walls, floor, andceiling. The attic is in the shape of a triangular prism. Linda draws the net and writesthe expression below to represent the surface area of the attic. Are Linda's net andexpression correct?15 ft45 ft25 ft40 ft25 ft25 ft25 ft- 15 ft45 ft40 ft15 ftExpression for Surface Area of Attic:45 (40 + 25 + 25) + ] (40 x 15)
We can formulate an expression for the surface area of the attic like this:
The area of a triangle is given by the following formula:
[tex]A=\frac{b\times h}{2}[/tex]Where b is the base and h is the height of the triangle.
The area of a rectangle is given by the following formula:
[tex]A=w\times l[/tex]Where w is the width and l is the length of the rectangle.
In this case, the attic has three rectangular faces, all of them have a width of 45 ft. two of them have a length of 25 ft and one has a width of 40 ft, then we can calculate the areas of these faces like this:
[tex]\begin{gathered} A1=45\times40 \\ A2=45\times25 \\ A3=45\times25 \end{gathered}[/tex]By summing up these areas, we get the area of the rectangular faces:
[tex]A=45\times40+45\times25+45\times25[/tex]From this expression, we can factor 45 to get:
[tex]A=45\times(40+25+25)[/tex]For the two triangular faces, their height equals 15 ft and the length of the bases equals 40 ft, then their areas are:
[tex]\begin{gathered} A1=\frac{15\times40}{2} \\ A2=\frac{15\times40}{2} \end{gathered}[/tex]By summing them up, we get the area of the triangular faces:
[tex]A=\frac{15\times40}{2}+\frac{15\times40}{2}=15\times40[/tex]By summing the area of the rectangular faces and the area of the triangular faces, we get the expression to calculate the total surface area of the attic, like this:
[tex]A=45(40+25+25)+40\times15=4650[/tex]Then, the net Linda draw is correct. The first term of Linda's expression 45(40+25+25) is correct. The second term of Linda's equation missing a factor of 2. The surface area of Linda's attic is 4650 square feet
Evaluate the function when x= -2,0, and 5 h(x)= -2x+9
Given:
a function is given as h(x) = -2x + 9
Find:
we have to evaluate the function at x = -2 , 0 and 5.
Explanation:
when x = -2
h(-2) = -2(-2) + 9 = 4 + 9 = 13
when x = 0
h(0) = -2(0) + 9 = 0 + 9 = 9
when x = 5
h(5) = -2(5) + 9 = - 10 + 9 = -1
Therefore, the values of given function h(x) are 13, 9 , -1 at x = -2, 0 , 5 respectively.

Suppose that you decide to buy a car for $32,635, including taxes and license fees. You saved $9,000 for a down payment and can get a four year car loan at 6.31%. Find the monthly payment and the total interest for the loan. Equation below.
SOLUTION:
Step 1:
In this question, we are given the following:
Suppose that you decide to buy a car for $32,635, including taxes and license fees.
You saved $9,000 for a down payment and can get a four-year car loan at 6.31%.
Find the monthly payment and the total interest for the loan.
Step 2:
In this question, we are given:
Cost of the car = $ 32, 635
Down payment = $ 9000
Principal on the Car loan = $ ( 32,635 - 9,000 ) = $ 23, 635
Rate = 6. 31%

16 The water level of a river was measured each day during a two-week period. The graph models the linear relationship between the water level of the river in feet and the number of days the water level was measured. Water Level of River 28 20 16 Water Level (0) 3 4 6 8 10 12 14 Number of Days Which statement best describes the y-intercept of the graph?
From the graph, it can be observed that line intersect the y-axis at (0,16) and after that level of water increases with increase in number of days.
So 16 feet represents the initial water level of the river. The correct answer is,
The initial water level was 16 ft.

Add Solve: n + 7 = 31
Answer:
n = 24
Explanation:
The initial expression is:
n + 7 = 31
So, to solve the equation, we need to subtract 7 from both sides:
n + 7 - 7 = 31 - 7
n = 24
Therefore, the solution is n = 24

The data is of even number, so;
Median = [(n/2) + (n/2 + 1)] / 2
Here,
n/2 = 8/2 = 4th term
n/2 + 1 = 5th term
Then,
Median = (3.9 + 4.8) / 2 = 8.7/2 = 4.35
Mode;The mode of the given data is 1.9

If the measures of the angles of a triangle arerepresented by 2x, 3x - 15, and 7x +15, the triangleis1) an isosceles triangle2) a right triangle3) an acute triangle4) an equiangular triangle
Answer
Option 1 is correct.
The triangle is an isosceles triangle.
Explanation
Noting that the sum of angles in a triangle is 180°.
We can solve for each of the angles in this triangle to obtain the type of triangle it is.
The angles of the triangle are 2x, (3x - 15) and (7x + 15)
2x + 3x - 15 + 7x + 15 = 180°
2x + 3x + 7x - 15 + 15 = 180°
12x = 180°
Divide both sides by 12
(12x/12) = (180°/12)
x = 15°
We can then solve for the measures of the three angles now
2x = 2 (15°) = 30°
3x - 15 = 3 (15°) - 15° = 45° - 15° = 30°
7x + 15 = 7 (15°) + 15° = 105° + 15° = 120°
So, the angles of the triangle are 30°, 30° and 120°
A tringle that has two of its angles equal to each other is called an isosceles triangle.

The given polynomial here can be factorized
We can express it as;
[tex]x^4-2x^3-4x^2+2x+3\text{ = (}x-1)(x+1)^2(x-3)[/tex]So what we have here is to simply equate individual linear factor to zero
Thus, we have the factors as;
1 , -1 twice and 3
3. *Which of the following equations has x intercepts at 4 and -2? (A) y = 3x^2 - 10x - 8 (B) y = x^2 + 2x - 8 (C) y = 3x^2 – 2x – 8 (D) y = x^2 - 2x - 8
Given data:
The x-intercepts given are 4 and -2.
Substitute 0 for y in the first option.
[tex]\begin{gathered} 0=3x^2-10x-8 \\ 3x^2-12x+2x-8=0 \\ 3x(x-4)+2(x-4)=0 \\ x=4,\text{ -}\frac{2}{3} \end{gathered}[/tex]Substitute 0 for y in the second option.
[tex]\begin{gathered} 0=x^2+2x-8 \\ x^2+2x-8=0 \\ x^2+4x-2x-8=0 \\ x(x+4)-2(x+4)=0 \\ (x-2)(x+4)=0 \\ x=2,\text{ -4} \end{gathered}[/tex]Substitute 0 for y in the third option.
[tex]\begin{gathered} 0=3x^2-2x-8 \\ 3x^2-2x-8=0 \\ 3x^2-6x+4x-8=0 \\ 3x(x-2)+4(x-2)=0 \\ (x-2)(3x+4)=0 \\ x=2,\text{ -}\frac{4}{3} \end{gathered}[/tex]Substitute 0 for y inlast option.
[tex]\begin{gathered} 0=x^2-2x-8 \\ x^2-4x+2x-8=0 \\ x(x-4)+2(x-4)=0 \\ (x-4)(x+2)=0 \\ x=4,\text{ -2} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, option (D) is correct.
Find the starting value and the base for the exponential function f(x)=kb^x that passes through the two points:(0,3) and (2,12).The starting value k is: AnswerThe base b is: Answer
The exponential equation given is,
[tex]f(x)=kb^x[/tex]Given the points
[tex](0,3)\text{ and (2,12)}[/tex]Therefore, the values for k and b will be resolved graphically.
