Mary sees 40 elephants and 15 baby elephants at the zoo. What is the ratio of elephants to baby elephants?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

8:3

Step-by-step explanation:

You divide them both by 5.

Answer 2

Answer:

40:15 = 8:3

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because:

1) Since there are 40 elephants and 15 baby elephants, the answer would be 40:15, but we want to simplify the ratio. In order to simplify the ratio, just divide each number by 5:

40 ÷ 5 = 8

15 ÷ 5 = 3

8:3

Therefore, the answer is 8:3.

Hope this helps! :D

What are the mean and standard deviation for the weight of the suitcases of a married couple, if the man’s suitcase is given the 5 pound calculator added to it?

Answers

Answer:

1) The mean = 41

The standard deviation = 13.379

2) The mean = 40.67

The standard deviation = 12.365

3) The mean and standard deviation will remain the same

4) The new mean = 44.5  

The new standard deviation = 13.58

5) The mean = 42.25

The standard deviation = 13.83

Step-by-step explanation:

The combines mean is given by the formula;

[tex]\overline {x_{12}} = \dfrac{n_1 \bar x + n_2 \bar x}{n_1 + n_2}[/tex]

The combined standard deviation is given as follows;

[tex]\sigma_{12} = \sqrt{\dfrac{n_1 \times \left (\sigma^2_{1} + d^2_1 \right) + n_2 \times \left (\sigma^2_{2} + d^2_2 \right)}{n_1 + n_2} }[/tex]

d₁ = [tex]\overline{x_{12}}[/tex] - [tex]\overline {x_1}[/tex]

d₂ = [tex]\overline{x_{12}}[/tex] - [tex]\overline {x_2}[/tex]

Substituting the known values, we have;

[tex]\overline {x_{12}} = \dfrac{ 42 + 40}{2}=41[/tex]

d₁ = 41 - 42 = -1

d₂ = 41 - 40 = 1

[tex]\sigma_{12} = \sqrt{\dfrac{ \left (16^2 + 1 \right) + \left (10^2 +1 \right)}{2} } = 13.379[/tex]

2) When n₁ = 1, n₂ = 2, we have;

[tex]\overline {x_{12}} = \dfrac{ 2 \times 42 + 4 \times 40}{6} \approx 40.67[/tex]

d₁ = 40.67 - 42 = -1.33

d₂ = 40.67 - 40 = 0.67

[tex]\sigma_{12} = \sqrt{\dfrac{ 2 \times \left (16^2 + 1.33^2 \right) + 4 \times \left (10^2 +0.67^2 \right)}{6} } \approx 12.365[/tex]

3) The mean and standard deviation will remain the same

4) The new mean = (42 + 47)/2 = 44.5  

The new standard deviation [tex]\sigma_{12} = \sqrt{\dfrac{ \left (16^2 + 2.5^2\right) + \left (10^2 +2.5^2\right)}{2} } \approx 13.58[/tex]

5) [tex]\overline {x_{12}} = \dfrac{ 44.5 + 40}{2}=42.25[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_{12} = \sqrt{\dfrac{ \left (16^2 + 2.5^2\right) + \left (10^2 +4.5^2\right)}{2} } \approx 13.83[/tex]

V = π × 4² × 3

If k(x) = x^2 and p(x) = k(x) + n, what is the value of n?


Pleaseee help ASAP!

I will give brainliest :)

Answers

Answer:

The value of n is -6

Step-by-step explanation:

If the function f(x) is translated k units up, then its image is g(x) = f(x) + kIf the function f(x) is translated k units down, then its image is g(x) = f(x) - kThe vertex form of the quadratic function is f(x) = a(x - h)² + k, where a is the coefficient of x² and (h, k) is the vertex

k(x) = x²

→ Its graph is a parabola with vertex (0, 0)

∴ The vertex of the prabola which represents it is (0, 0)

∵ The given graph is the graph of p(x)

∵ Its vertex is (0, -6)

∴ h = 0 and k = -6

∵ a = 1

→ Substitute them in the form above

∴ p(x) = 1(x - 0)² + -6

∴ p(x) = x² - 6

→ Substitute x² by k(x)

∴ p(x) = k(x) - 6

∵ p(x) = k(x) + n

→ By comparing the two right sides

∴ n = -6

The value of n is -6

Look at the attached figure for more understanding

The red parabola represents k(x)

The blue parabola represents p(x)

The value of the n is -6.

Equation of a parabola

y = a(x-h)2 + k

where,

(h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex of the parabola in form (x, y);

a defines how narrower is the parabola, and the "-" or "+" that the parabola will open up or down.

Given to us

k(x) = x^2

p(x) = k(x) + n

Substitutionsubstituting the value of k(x) in p(x).

p(x) = k(x)+n

p(x) = x² + n

Comparing

Comparing with the Equation of a parabola,

y = a(x-h)2 + k

p(x) = x² + n

Therefore, the value of n is k which is the y coordinate of the vertex of the parabola.

Coordinates of the vertex of the parabola

Looking at the coordinates of the vertex of the parabola,

(h, n) = (0, -6)

Hence, the value of the n is -6.

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

[tex] \longrightarrow [/tex] 5 (x - 6) = 2(x + 3)

Expand out terms of the left hand side:

[tex] \longrightarrow [/tex] 5x - 30 = 2(x + 3)

Expand out terms of the right hand side:

[tex] \longrightarrow [/tex] 5x - 30 = 2x + 6

Subtract 2x from both sides:

[tex] \longrightarrow [/tex] (5x - 2x) - 30 = (2x - 2x) + 6

5x - 2x = 3x:

[tex] \longrightarrow [/tex] 3x - 30 = (2x - 2x) + 6

2x - 2x = 0:

[tex] \longrightarrow [/tex] 3x - 30 = 6

Add 30 to both sides:

[tex] \longrightarrow [/tex] 3x + (30 - 30) = 30 + 6

30 - 30 = 0:

[tex] \longrightarrow [/tex] 3x = 6 + 30

6 + 30 = 36:

[tex] \longrightarrow [/tex] 3x = 36

Answers

Answer:

Axis is a vertical line at x = 2

Vertex is (2, -1)

y-intercept is (0, 3)

Solutions are x = 1 and x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To draw the graph of the quadratic equation you must find at least 5 points lie on the graph by choose values of x and find their values of y

Let us do that

Use x = -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

∵ y = x² - 4x + 3

∵ x = -1

∴ y = (-1)² - 4(-1) + 3 = 1 + 4 + 3 = 8

→ Plot point (-1, 8)

∵ x = 0

∴ y = (0)² - 4(0) + 3 = 0 + 0 + 3 = 3

→ Plot point (0, 3)

∵ x = 1

∴ y = (1)² - 4(1) + 3 = 1 - 4 + 3 = 0

→ Plot point (1, 0)

∵ x = 2

∴ y = (2)² - 4(2) + 3 = 4 - 8 + 3 = -1

→ Plot point (2, -1)

∵ x = 3

∴ y = (3)² - 4(3) + 3 = 9 - 12 + 3 = 0

→ Plot point (3, 0)

∵ x = 4

∴ y = (4)² - 4(4) + 3 = 16 - 16 + 3 = 3

→ Plot point (4, 3)

∵ x = 5

∴ y = (5)² - 4(5) + 3 = 25 - 20 + 3 = 8

→ Plot point (5, 8)

→ Join all the points to form the parabola

From the graph

∵ The axis of symmetry is the vertical line passes through the vertex point

∵ x-coordinate of the vertex point is 2

Axis is a vertical line at x = 2

∵ The coordinates of the vertex point of the parabola are (2, -1)

Vertex is (2, -1)

∵ The parabola intersects the y-axis at point (0, 3)

y-intercept is (0, 3)

∵ x² - 4x + 3 = 0

∵ The solutions of the equation are the values of x at y = 0

→ That means the intersection points of the parabola and the x-axis

∵ The parabola intersects the x-axis at points (1, 0) and (3, 0)

Solutions are x = 1 and x = 3

ΔABC is dilated by a scale factor of 0.5 with the origin as the center of dilation, resulting in the image ΔA′B′C′. If A = (2, 2), B = (4, 3), and C = (6, 3), what is the length of ?

Answers

Answer:

Fourth option is correct. The length of B'C' is 1 unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertices of triangle ABC are A = (2, 2), B = (4, 3), and C = (6, 3).

Distance formula:

The length of BC is 2 units.

It is given that ΔABC is dilated by a scale factor of 0.5 with the origin as the center of dilation, resulting in the image ΔA′B′C′.

It means the ΔABC and ΔA′B′C′ are similar and corresponding sides of ΔA′B′C′ and ΔABC are proportional.

The scale factor is 0.5.

Therefore the length of B'C' is 1 unit and fourth option is correct
