why is earth known as diatomaceous Earth​???
From biology

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Diatomaceous earth is made from the fossilized remains of tiny, aquatic organisms called diatoms. Their skeletons are made of a natural substance called silica. Over a long period of time, diatoms accumulated in the sediment of rivers, streams, lakes, and oceans. Today, silica deposits are mined from these areas.

What is the greatest possible error if Irina measured the weight of her dog as 13 pounds?

Answers

Answer:

0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Irina measured the weight of her dog to be 13 pounds.

The greatest possible error that could have to occur will be the maximum error.

Let assume that the 13th value obtained was rounded between the range of 12.5 → 13.49 to 13 pounds

Then;

The greatest possible error that could have to occur = 13.0 - 12.5 pounds

The greatest possible error that could have to occur = 0.5 pounds

Answer:

8 pm and 8 am

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the equation

[tex]2|(x-2)|-12=0[/tex]

There is a modulus in the equation this means that one value of the modulus will be positive and the other will be negative

Let us solve for the positive first

[tex]2(x-2)-12=0\\\Rightarrow 2x-4-12=0\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{16}{2}\\\Rightarrow x=8[/tex]

Now we add this value with 12 noon

So

[tex]12+8=8\ \text{pm}[/tex]

Let us solve for the negative

[tex]2(-(x-2))-12=0\\\Rightarrow 2(2-x)-12=0\\\Rightarrow 4-2x-12=0\\\Rightarrow x=-\dfrac{8}{2}\\\Rightarrow x=-4[/tex]

So

[tex]12-4=8\ \text{am}[/tex]

The times when the serving time is as advertised is 8 pm and 8 am.

Explanation:

Check out the diagrams below. I posted two of them. Start with figure 1.

Notice how I've copied the first two columns and placed them on the right side of the matrix.

After that, I've highlighted the diagonals. The numbers in each diagonal grouping multiply together. I've used color coding to show this.

Once you find all those products, you add up the values. Figure 1 shows a result of 42. This isn't the final answer, but it helps us get there.

Figure 2 is a similar idea, but we're doing the off diagonals instead of the main diagonals. The result here is 15.

The last step is to subtract the results found in figures 1 and 2. We get 42-15 = 27 as the final answer.

You could use co-factor expansion as an alternative method. For me, I prefer this method of multiplying diagonals. Unfortunately the method only works for 3x3 matrices.

Household incomes are normally distributed with a mean of $47,500 and a standard deviation of $12,500. What is the probability of having incomes of $60,000
or more?
a) 2.50%
O b) 5.0096
C) 15.87%
od) 7.8096

Answers

Answer:

Option C: 15.87 is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Mean = $47500

SD = $12500

We have to find the probability of having $60000 or more

So,

x = $60000

The z-score will be:

[tex]z-score = z = \frac{x-mean}{SD}\\z = \frac{60000-47500}{12500}\\= \frac{12500}{12500}\\= 1[/tex]

Looking in the z-score table, we get

P(Z<60000) = 0.8413

In order to find the probability P(Z>60000) => 1-P(Z<60000)

= 1-0.8413

=0.1587

Converting into percentage: 0.1587*100 = 15.87%

Hence,

Option C: 15.87 is the correct answer

Luis rounded each value and estimated that he does not have enough money to cover the cost of the apples before sales tax is applied. Which best explains how his estimate relates to the actual product? Because each value rounds up, his estimate is higher than the actual product. He might have enough money to buy the apples. Because each value rounds up, his estimate is higher than the actual product. He does not have enough money to buy the apples. Because each value rounds up, his estimate is lower than the actual product. He does not have enough money to buy the apples. Because each value rounds up, his estimate is lower than the actual product. He might have enough money to buy the apples.

Answers

Answer: Hope this helps.

Because each value rounds up, his estimate is higher than the actual product. He might have enough money to buy the apples. So A.

Step-by-step explanation:

We don't actually know what it was that Luis was estimating. Assuming he was estimating the cost of the apples he wants to buy, rounding up both the price and quantity will give an estimate of $2/lb × 7 lb = $14, which is more than he has to spend.

Luis could refine his estimate by realizing the actual price is 10% less than the vaue he used, and the actual quantity is not quite 6% less than the value he used. The amount Luis has is about 14% less than the cost he estimated, so considering estimation errors, he probabaly has enough money.

A quadratic function y=f(x)y=f(x) is plotted on a graph and the vertex of the resulting parabola is (-4, -5)(−4,−5). What is the vertex of the function defined as g(x)=f(x+2)+3g(x)=f(x+2)+3?

Answers

Answer:

The vertex of the function g(x) = f(x + 2) + 3 is (-6, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

If the graph of the function f(x) is translated h units to the left, then its image g(x) = f(x + h)If the graph of the function f(x) is translated k units up, then its image g(x) = f(x) + k

Let us use these facts above to solve the question

∵ The quadratic function f(x) = y has a vertex point (-4, -5)

g(x) = f(x + 2) + 3

→ By using the two facts above

∴ f(x) is translated 2 units to the left

∴ f(x) is translated 3 units up

→ That means the vertex point must move 2 units left and 3 units up

∵ The rule of translation is T (x, y) → (x - 2, y + 3)

∵ The coordinates of the vertex point of f(x) are (-4, -5)

∴ Its image is (-4 - 2, -5 + 3)

∴ Its image is (-6, -2)

The vertex of the function g(x) = f(x + 2) + 3 is (-6, -2)

Answer:

DF = 17.12

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

From ΔABC and ΔEFD,

m∠ABC = m∠EFD = 28°

m∠BAC = m∠EDF = 68°

By AA property of similarity, ΔABC and ΔEFD will be similar.

And their corresponding sides will be proportional.

[tex]\frac{AB}{EF}=\frac{BC}{DF}=\frac{AC}{ED}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{4}{EF}=\frac{BC}{DF}=\frac{2}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{4}{EF}=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

EF = 16

Now by applying cosine rule in ΔDEF,

DF² = ED² + EF² - 2(ED)(EF)cos(E)

DF² = 8² + (16)² - 2(8)(16)cos(84)°

DF² = 320 - 26.76

DF = √(293.24)

DF = 17.12

Step-by-step explanation:

c - 3/4 = 1/8

First I will make sure that they all have the same denominator.

[tex]\frac{3}{4} * 2= \frac{6}{8}[/tex]

Our new equation will look like:

c - 6/8 = 1/8

Now we will add 6/8 to both sides.

c = 1/8 + 6/8

c = 7/8

how much ₹ each will get if 242.46₹ is distributed equally among the students​

Answers

Complete Question:

How much ₹ will each get if 242.46₹ is distributed equally among the 6 students​

Answer:

Each of the 6 students will get ₹40.41

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Amount = 242.46[/tex]

[tex]Students = 6[/tex]

Required

Determine how much each student gets

To do this, we simply divide the total amount by the number of students

i.e.

[tex]Each\ Students = \frac{Amount}{Number\ Students}[/tex]

[tex]Each\ Students = \frac{242.46}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Each\ Student = 40.41[/tex]
