Answer 2

I'll do the first four problems to get you started

====================================================

Problem 15

Answer:  40%

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

Explanation:

The price dropped by $60, since 150-90 = 60. This is the discount, which is the amount you save. Divide this over the original price ($150) and we get 60/150 = 0.40 = 40%

Therefore, the price has been reduced by 40%. If we take 40% of 150, then 0.40*150 = 60 showing that 40% of $150 is 60 dollars. This matches up with the discount value mentioned earlier. So it helps verify the answer.

====================================================

Problem 16

Answer: 20%

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

Explanation:

The pay raised by 12-10 = 2 dollars. So the percent increase is 2/10 = 0.20 = 20%

Note how 20% of 10 = 0.20*10 = 2 is the pay raise amount; meaning that 2 is 20% of 10.

====================================================

Problem 17

Answer: 50%

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

Explanation:

I'll use a formula this time, but we could follow the same idea as the previous problems. This is to give another approach.

A = old value = 8

B = new value = 12

C = percent change

C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%

C = [ (12-8)/8 ] * 100%

C = (4/8)*100%

C = 0.50*100%

C = 50%

50% is the same as half of the value. Note how half of 8 is 4, ie 50% of 8 = 0.50*8 = 4. So this is the amount of increase when going from 8 to 12.

Side note: The "B-A" portion in the numerator represents the change in value. We divide this change over the original amount "A" and then multiply by 100% to get the percent change we're after.

====================================================

Problem 18

Answer:  24%

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

Explanation:

I'll use the formula again

A = old value = 3.00

B = new value = 2.28

C = percent change

C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%

C = [ (2.28-3.00)/3.00 ] * 100%

C = (-0.72/3.00)*100%

C = -0.24*100

C = -24%

The negative percent change means we have a percent decrease. So we have a 24% decrease. Since your teacher is asking about how much the percent reduction is, we'll write the positive version of this percentage.

Problems 19 through 22 will follow the same ideas as shown in the previous problems.

A company produces remote-controlled helicopters. The company’s profit, in thousands of dollars, as a function of the number of helicopters produced per week can be modeled by a quadratic function. When 1 helicopter is produced per week, the company’s profit is 4 thousand dollars. The maximum profit, 22 thousand dollars, occurs when 4 helicopters are produced per week.

The function that models the scenario, where h is the number of helicopters produced per week, is

f(h) = –2(h – 4)2 + 22.

Amit Almor, a psychology researcher at the University of South Carolina, conducted a series of experiments on conversation and attention level. He found that subjects were four times more distracted while preparing to speak or speaking than when they were listening. This research has many implications, including those for the issue of using cell phones while driving.

You decide to explore this issue by having three different groups try tracking a fast-moving target on a computer screen. The first group is preparing to speak, the second group is speaking, and the third group is listening to a conversation.
The sample mean and sum of squares of the scores for each of the three groups are presented in the following table.

Group Sample Mean Sum of Squares
Preparing to speak 98.3 7,2810.0900
Speaking 101.5 6,6156.8100

Answers

Answer:

SSbetween / SStotal

η² = 0.0145757

Step-by-step explanation:

Effect size, η² = SSbetween / SStotal

SSbetween is the sum of square between the groups in the experiment. It is sometimes denoted as SSb.

The sum of square Total, SStotal measures the entire variability in these dataset.

SSbetween = 3,095.00 ; SStotal = 212,339.66

η² = SSbetween / SStotal

Effect size η²= 3,095.00 / 212,339.66

Step-by-step explanation:

Once again we want to use the relationship stated earlier

Where A * B = C * D

Once again imagine that the segments in the given problem have letters

A = x

B = 12

C = x + 1

D = 9

Now we create an equation using the relationship

12 * x = 9(x+1)

now we solve using basic algebra

step 1 distribute the 9 to the x and the 1

9 * x = 9x

9 * 1 = 9

now we have 12x = 9x + 9

step 2 subtract 9x from each side

12x - 9x = 3x

9x - 9x cancels out

now we have 3x = 9

step 3 divide each side by 3

3x/3=x

9/3=3

we're left with x = 3

What is Geometric sequence?

An sequence has the ratio of every two successive terms is a constant, is called a Geometric sequence.

Given that;

The series is,

⇒ 16, 20, 25,

Now, We get;

Common ratio = 20 / 16 = 5 / 4

And, 25 / 20 = 5 / 4

Thus, The series is geometric series.

Hence, The sum of the first 8 terms of the series, to the nearest integer is,

⇒ S₈ = 16 ((5/4)⁸ - 1) / (5/4 - 1)

⇒ S₈ = 16 (390625/65,536 - 1) / (1/4)

⇒ S₈ = 16 × 4 (325,089 / 65,536)

⇒ S₈ = 317.46

⇒ S₈ = 317

Thus, The sum of the first 8 terms of the series, to the nearest integer is,

⇒ S₈ = 317

Answers

Complete question :

a. Of less than$720?

b. Of more than $840?

c. Between $680 and $760?

Answer:

0.500 ; 0.0013 ; 0.6827

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean, μ = 720

Standard deviation, σ = 40

P(Z < x)

x = (x < 720)

Obtain the standardized value of x

P(x < 720) = (x - μ) / σ

P(x < 720) = (720 - 720) / 40

P(x < 720) = 0

P(Z < 0) = 0.5

B.) More than $840

P(x > 840)

P(x > 840) = (x - μ) / σ

P(x > 840) = (840 - 720) / 40

P(x > 840) = 120 / 40 = 3

P(Z > 3) = 0.0013499 (Z probability calculator)

c. Between $680 and $760?

P(760 < x < 680)

P(760 < x < 680) = ((x - μ) / σ) - ((x - μ) / σ)

P(760 < x < 680) = ((760 - 720) / 40) - (680 - 720) / 40)) = P( Z < - 1) - P(Z < - 1)

P(680 < x < 760) = 0.84134 - 0.15866 = 0.68268

now.

<B=4x=4×15=60° is your answer

The required measure of ∠B is 60° for the given triangle.

What is the Exterior Angle?

An exterior Angle is defined as an angle produced on the outside of a polygon by extending the sides of the polygon.

According to the shown figure, we have:

The external angle is ∠BCG = 10x - 45.

And, two interior angles as ∠A = 3x, and ∠B = 4x.

As we know that the sum of two opposite interior angles equals the exterior angle.

So, we can be written as follows:

4x + 3x = 10x - 45

45 = 10x - 7x

x = 45/3

x = 15

So, the measure of ∠B is:

∠B = 4x

∠B = 4 × 15

∠B = 60°

Thus, the required measure of ∠B is 60°.

Find the exact value for the expression under the given conditions.
cos(α+β), sin α= -8/17 for α in Quadrant lll and cosβ= -8/15 for β in Quadrant ll.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle \cos(\alpha+\beta)=\frac{120+8\sqrt{161}}{255}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the conditions:

[tex]\displaystyle \sin(\alpha)=-\frac{8}{17}\text{ and } \cos(\beta)=-\frac{8}{15}[/tex]

Where α is in QIII and β is in QII and we want to find the exact value of cos(α + β).

The first ratio gives us the opposite side and the hypotenuse with respect to α . Then the adjacent side is (we can ignore negatives):

[tex]a=\sqrt{(17)^2-(8)^2}=15[/tex]

The second ratio gives us the adjacent side and the hypotenuse with respect to β. Then the opposite side is:

[tex]o=\sqrt{(15)^2-(8)^2}=\sqrt{161}[/tex]

Therefore, for α, ignoring negatives, the adjacent side is 15, the opposite side is 8, and the hypotenuse is 17.

And for β, ignoring negatives, the adjacent side is 8, the opposite side is √(161), and the hypotenuse is 15.

We can rewrite our expression as:

[tex]\displaystyle \cos(\alpha+\beta)=\cos(\alpha)\cos(\beta)-\sin(\alpha)\sin(\beta)[/tex]

Since α is in QIII, sin(α), cos(α) < 0, and tan(α) > 0.

And since β is in QII, cos(β), tan(β) < 0, and sin(β) > 0.

Using this information, substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle \cos(\alpha+\beta)=\left(-\frac{15}{17}\right)\left(-\frac{8}{15}\right)-\left(-\frac{8}{17}\right)\left(\frac{\sqrt{161}}{15}\right)[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]\displaystyle \cos(\alpha+\beta)=\frac{120+8\sqrt{161}}{255}[/tex]
