From 2008 to 2010, the cost of houses rose by 60%. if the cost of houses rose by 40% from 2008 to 2009, to the nearest percent, how much did the cost rise from 2009 to 2010?

Answers

Answer 1

The increase in cost from 2009 to 2010 is 14.28%

In order to solve this question we will be taking the following example:

Let the cost of the house in 2008  = $1000

Increase in cost from 2008 to 2010 = 60%

Cost of the house in 2010 = 1000 + 60%*1000 = $1600

Increase in cost from 2008 to 2009 = 40%

Cost of the house in 2009 = 1000 + 40%*1000 = $1400

Increase in cost from 2009 to 2010 = 1600 - 1400 = $200

Percentage increase in cost from 2009 to 2010 = (Increase in cost/Cost of the house in 2009)*100

=(200/1400)*100

= 14.28% or 14%

Therefore, there has been an increase of 14.28% in the cost of houses from 2009 to 2010

The function f(x)=80(1.5)x models a bacteria population after x hours. how does the average rate of change between hour 4 and hour 8 compare to the average rate of change between hour 0 and hour 4?

Answers

The average rate of change between hour 4 and hour 8 is equal to the  average rate of change between hour 0 and hour 4.

Function is an expression, rule, or law that defines a relationship between one variable (the independent variable) and another variable (the dependent variable).

Given,

The function f(x)=80(1.5)x

where x is the time in hours

Then,

f(4)=80(1.5)4=480

f(8)=80(1.5)8=960

f(0)=80(1.5)0=0

Then the average rate of change between 4 and 8 hours =[tex]\frac{960-480}{4}[/tex]

=120 units per hour

The average rate of change between 0 and 4 hours=[tex]\frac{480-0}{4}[/tex]

=120 units per hour

Hence, the average rate of change between hour 4 and hour 8 is equal to the  average rate of change between hour 0 and hour 4.

consider randomly selecting a student at a large university, and let a be the event that the selected student has a visa card and b be the analogous event for mastercard. suppose that

Answers

It is not possible that the intersection case is P(A B)=0.5 .

What is intersection?

The set of all objects that are members of both sets A and B is represented by the intersection of the two sets A and B, abbreviated as A∩B.

If there is any element x that is an element of both A and B, then we can also say that A intersects (meets) B at x. If A∩B is an inhabited set, which means that there must be some x such that x∈A∩B exists, then A intersects B equivalently.

If A does not intersect B, then A and B are said to be disjoint. They share no elements, to put it simply. If the intersection of A and B contains nothing—A∩B=Ф—then A and B are disjoint.

Explanation:

The likelihood of occurring of an event is called probability.

Consider two events A and B are occurred with probabilities P(A) and P(B)  respectively.

The probability that both the events occurs is,

P(A and B)=P(A∩B)

When both the events are independent,

P(A and B)=P(AB) = P(A)x P(B)

The probability that either A or B occurs is,

P(A or B)= P(AUB) = P(A)+P(B)-P(A∩B)

When both the events are mutually exclusive the probability that either A or B occurs is,

P(A or B)=P(AUB) = P(A)+P(B)

The compliment of the probability is,

P(A)=1-P(A)

The conditional probability of occurring of an event A when it is given that B had already occurred is,

P(A|B)=P(A∩B)/P(B)

Let A represent the situation where the chosen person has a Visa credit card and B represent the situation where they have a Master card. The probability of occurring event A is 0.6 and the probability of occurring event B is 0.4 that is, P(A)=0.6, P(B)=0.4 .

It is known that P(A B)∠P(A) and P(A B)∠P(B) . So, it is not possible that the intersection case, P(A B)=0.5 .

use vectors to prove that the line joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half its length.

Answers

The line joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half its length.

Triangle law of vectors states that for a ΔABC

The sum of vectors of two sides is equal to the third side vector.

Two vectors are said to be Parallel if one vector is scalar multiple of other.

In the given figure

In ΔABC , D is mid point of AB and E is the mid point of AC .

By using triangle law of vectors for ΔADE

AE+AD=ED......(1)

Now using triangle law of vectors addition for ΔABC

CA+AB=CB    ....(2)

(as given that E is the mid point of CA , we can write [tex]AE=\frac{1}{2} CA[/tex]

CA=2AE.....(3)

and D is mid point of AB , we can write [tex]AD=\frac{1}{2} AB[/tex]

AB=2AD......(4)

Substituting (3) & (4) in (2) we get

2AE+2AD=CB

2(AE+AD)=CB

SUBSTIUTTING VALUES OF (AE+AD) from (1) we get

2ED=CB

[tex]ED=\frac{1}{2} CB[/tex]

Hence , the line joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is  half of third side.

Since ED is (1/2) of CB i.e. ED is scalar multiple of CB.

Answers

According to the given statement,

366 liters of natural oil is needed to make 671 L synthetic oil.

What is Synthetic Oil?

Essential oils, which are more natural, are slightly different from synthetic oils. An intentionally created chemical component is present in synthetic oils, which are used as lubricants.

Full synthetics and semi-synthetic oils are the two primary types of synthetic oils. Full synthetics originate from crude oil or byproducts in this situation. Conventional oils are produced using chemical procedures rather than distillation. The resulting synthetic oil has a higher molecular make-up and frequently exhibits more consistent characteristics. Synthetic oils are used in many cosmetic and medicinal goods, just like their more natural equivalents.

According to the given values;

The ratio of natural to synthetic oil

= 6:5

If 671 liters have to be made then,

Add 6+5=11

So, 6/11 of 671liters will be = 366 liters of natural oil

and, 5/11 of 671 liters will be = 305 liters of synthetic oil

y = 4x + 12
y = 4x − 14
y equals negative one-fourth times x minus 1
y equals negative one-fourth times x plus 7 halves

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The Answer is A

The equation for a parallel street that passes through the given point is y = 4x + 12

Equation of a line

From the question, we are to determine the equation of the street that is parallel to the first street

NOTE: Two lines are parallel if they have equal slopes.

Thus,

We will determine the slope of the first street.

From the given information,

The street passes through the points (4, 7) and (3, 3)

Using the formula,

Slope = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

x₁ = 4

y₁ = 7

x₂ = 3

y₂ = 3

∴ Slope = (3 -7)/(3 -4)

Slope = -4/-1

Slope = 4

Now,

For the equation of the parallel street

The street passes through the point (-2, 4)

Since, the street is parallel to the first street,

Slope = 4

Using the point-slope form

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - 4 = 4(x - -2)

y - 4 = 4(x + 2)

y - 4 = 4x + 8

y = 4x + 8 + 4

y = 4x + 12

Hence, the equation for a parallel street that passes through the given point is y = 4x + 12

Line B is parallel to A so, [tex]m_{B}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6}{5}[/tex]

Line C is perpendicular to B so [tex]m_{C} * m_{B} = -1\\m_{C} = \frac{-5}{6}[/tex]

Line D is perpendicular to C so [tex]m_{D} *m_{C} = -1\\m_{D} = \frac{6}{5}[/tex]

Line E is perpendicular to D hence [tex]m_{E} * m_{D} = -1\\m_{E} = \frac{-5}{6}[/tex]

Therefore the slope of line E is [tex]\frac{-5}{6}[/tex]

what equations are equivalent to 18 − 15 = − 2x/5 + 7x/15

Answers

The equation which is equivalent to the given expression 18 − 15 = − 2x/5 + 7x/15 is (-3 = 5x/5).

What is defined by the linear equation with one variable?

The basic equation used to demonstrate and overcome for an unknown quantity is a linear equation for one variable.

It is always a straight line and can be conveniently represented graphically. A linear function is a simple way to represent a mathematical statement. Unknown quantities can be represented by any variable or symbol, but in most cases, a variable 'x' is employed to represent the arbitrary number in a linear equation with one variable. A linear equation can be solved using a variety of simple methods. To produce a desired value of the unknown quantity, the variables have been separated on one side of the equation as well as the constants are isolated on the other.

The given equation is;

18 − 15 = − 2x/5 + 7x/15

Simplifying the constant and variable part.

- 3 = 5x/5

Multiplying both side by 5;

- 15 = x

or, x = -15.

Thus, the required equivalent equation is - 3 = 5x/5 and the value of variable x is -15.
