The population in the year 2015 is 31296.

In 1995 the population was 7824. It was found that the population gets double every 10 years.

We have to find the population in the year 2015.

Rate = 200% = 2

Time =( 2015 - 1995) / 10

        = 20/10

        = 2

The population in 2015 = population in 1995 ×[tex]rate^{time}[/tex]

                                       = 7824 × [tex]2^{2}[/tex]

                                       = 7824 × 4

                                       = 31296

Therefore the population in the year 2015 is 31296.

The percentage 20% of the costs y is given as 0.20y thus the expression which represents the price of the item after the discount is P = y - 0.20y.

The percentage is just like the amount of that value but between 1 to 100 and it is very useful to predict for example if you say 678 then we have to know about the full number also but if you say 80% then it becomes clear.

It is known that x% of something y is given as,

x% of y = (x/100)y

Given that discount of 20% of y

20% of y = (20/100)y

20% of y = 0.20y

Now the final price = initial price - discount

Final price (P) = y - 0.20y

Hence"The percentage 20% of the costs y is given as 0.20y thus the expression which represents the price of the item after the discount is P = y - 0.20y".

The actual area of the apartment's living room is 10 [tex]m^{2}[/tex]

Given

Room is in the shape of a rectangle

Length of the room  (L)= 10 cm

Width of the room    (W) = 4 cm

Also the scale of floor plan is 2 cm for every 1 meter

Initially the are of the living room = area of rectangle

Area of the rectangle = length × width

                                   = 10 × 40

                                   = 40  [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

To find actual floor area we need to scale the dimensions

Since 2cm = 1 m

10cm = 5m and 4 cm = 2m

Now calculating the actual area

Area = length × width

        = 5×2

        =10 [tex]m^{2}[/tex]

Assume √2 is rational, so

√2 = p/q

for some relatively prime integers p,q - meaning we can't reduce p/q any further - and q ≠ 0.

Then

p = √2 q

and squaring both sides gives

p² = 2q²

This tells us that p² is even, so 2 divides p². But if 2 divides p², it must also divide p, since p is a square number. So p = 2r for some integer r, and we have

(2r)² = 2q²

4r² = 2q²

2r² = q²

We're in the same situation as before - 2 divides q², so 2 divides q. Both p and q are thus divisible by 2, but this contradicts our assumption that p and q are relatively prime, which means √2 cannot be expressed as a rational number p/q. Therefore √2 is irrational.

What you've written in your proof is technically correct, but it doesn't help in the irrationality proof.

Step-by-step explanation:

The goalpost is 15.13 meters tall which is labeled as X in the figure which has been attached below.

She walks 13.45 meters away from the goalpost, then places a mirror flat on the ground with an X in the center. She next walks 1.2 meters to the opposite side of the mirror, where she can easily see the top of the goalpost depicted in the X. Her partner determines that the distance between her eyes and the ground is 1.35 meters.

The ratio is defined as a relationship between two quantities, it is expressed as one divided by the other.

As per the given information, the figure has been attached below.

Set up the proportional and solve for x

1.2 : 13.45 = 1.35 : x

⇒ 1.2 / 13.45 = 1.35 / x

Cross multiplication, and we get

⇒ 1.2x  = 1.35 × 13.45

Divided by 1.2 into both sides of the above equation,

⇒ x = (1.35 × 13.45) / 1.2

⇒ x = 15.13

Therefore, the goalpost is 15.13 meters tall.

The equation which is useful to find the amount in gallons of water to the number of minutes since filling started is 25 + 11x therefore, it takes 5 minutes to have 80 gallons of water.

Determine the known quantities and designate the unknown quantity as a variable while trying to set up or construct a linear equation to fit a real-world application.

The amount of water initially in the trough = 25 gallons.

The rate of adding water = 11 gallons per minute

Therefore, the total amount (A) of water in x minutes will be,

A = 25 + 11x

The number of minutes to have 80 gallons of water is,

80 = 25 + 11x

11x = 55

x = 5 minutes.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b ) a point on the line

calculate m using the slope formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, 7) ← 2 points on the line

m = [tex]\frac{7-1}{1-(-2)}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6}{1+2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6}{3}[/tex] = 2

use either of the 2 points on the line

The percentage of students that use other means to travel school is  24%

Percentage is the ratio of  the number for which you want to find  percentage to the total number with which you want to compare or out of and multiply this ratio with 100.

percentage = (part / whole) ×100

Given that a school has 825 total students.

Percentage of students travelling by car = 20%

Percentage of students travelling by bus = 48%

Percentage of students travelling by bicycle = 8%

Number of students travelling by car = 20% of 825 = (20/100)×825 = 165

Number of students travelling by bus = 48% of 825

= (48/100)×825 = 396

Number of students travelling by bus  = 8% of 825 = (8/100)×825 = 66

Number of students travelling by other means = 825-165-396-66 = 198

Therefore, the Percentage of students travelling by other means  = (198/825) ×100 = 24%

The set of the value for which the curve and line have no common point are is k ∈ (0 , 4).

The value for which the line is a tangent is k = 4.

The coordinates of the point where the line touches the curves is point of tangency = ( 1/2 , 2).

What is tangent?

Tangents in geometry are lines or planes that contact curves or surfaces at points where they are closer to the curve than any other lines or planes drawn through those points.

Given equations in the question:

y = kx² + 1  

y = kx

Equating y

kx² + 1   = kx

kx² -kx  + 1 =  0

This is Quadratic equation is of the form ax²+bx+c=0  where a  , b and c are real also  a≠0.

D =  b²-4ac is called discriminant.

and we know that,

D >0 roots are real and distinct

D =0 roots are real and equal

D < 0 roots are imaginary ( not real ) and different

For no common solution  D < 0

For tangent  D = 0

so,

kx² -kx  + 1 =  0

D = (-k)² - 4k  = k² - 4k = k(k - 4)

k(k - 4) < 0

if  0 < k < 4

Hence values of k for which the curve and the line have no common points is k ∈ (0 , 4).

for tangent

k(k - 4)  = 0

k is non zero

Hence k = 4

After putting the value of k, given equations are:

y = 4x² + 1  

y = 4x

solving these equations to get value of x and y:

4x² + 1   = 4x

4x² - 4x + 1 = 0

(2x - 1)² = 0

x = 1/2

y = 2

The zeros of the given polynomial function are 1, -1 and 2

Given the polynomial function

First, we need to assume a value of x to check if it will give us zero after substituting:

Assuming x = 1

Since f(1) =0, hence x - 1 is a factor

Dividing x - 1 by the given polynomial function, we will have:

Equating the result to zero

x + 1 = 0 and x - 2 = 0

x = -1 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = rise/run = (difference in y)/(difference in x)

First, we find a difference in y.

Subtract any two values of y.

For example: 35 - 14 = 21

Now we find the corresponding difference in x.

Now subtract the x values corresponding to those y values in the same order.

-1 in x corresponds to 35 in y.

-4 in x corresponds to 14 in y.

That means your difference in x is the subtraction -1 - (-4) = -1 + 4 = 3

The difference in y is 21.

The difference in x is 3.
