2x^2+7x+5
Answer:
(2x+5)(x+1)
Step-by-step explanation:
We look for two numbers which multiply to 10(that is 2×5) and add to 7. Our numbers are 2and 5
2×5=10 and 2+5=7
Therefore we have
(2x²+2x)+(5x+5)
2x(x+1)+5(x+1)
(2x+5)(x+1)

TIME (HOURS)
Answer:
15) The ratio of hours to miles is 1 hour to 75 miles; 1/75
16) They will have traveled 900 miles.
17) It will take them around 9 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
15) Finding the unit rate of the trend (which in this case I considered to be line) can be done by finding the slope and simplifying it. There is a constant linear slope in this graph so it was evident that as the x-values increased by 1, the y-values increased by 75. All you had to do was convert the values into ratio form which would be 1/75. The 1 should remain "numerator" and the 75 as denominator because it is the hour-to-mile ratio (the units were listed in thw instructions in the chronological order in which they were to be answered in ratio form; 1 hour to 75 miles).
16) You can set up an equivalent-ratios equation. Because we know that the unit ratio is 1 hour to 75 miles, and we were given the value of 12 hours, we can set up the equation like this: 1/75=12/x. I would then multiply the 75 miles by 12 so that the ratios will be proportionate. This gives me 900 miles. Now I know, based on the ratio 12 hours to 900 miles (12/900), that if the family travels for 12 hours, they will have traveled 900 miles.
17) We can do the same thing as we did in number 16. We just have to switch the value we use in the second ratio. This means that the equivalent-ratios equation will look like 1/75=x/700, because 700 miles is our given value as opposed to a value with a unit of hours, and miles are the denominators in these ratios. Now we have to see how many times 75 goes into 700 to figure out what to multiply the 1 by to get our proportionate ratios. We have to divide 700 by 75 which is roughly 9 (rounded down from 9.3). The ratio now reads: 1/75=9/700. This means that it will take the family around 9 hours to drive 700 miles (9 hours to 700 miles was the ratio).

A sample of 29 boxes of cereal has a sample standard deviation of 0.81 ounces. Construct a 95% confidence interval to estimate the true standard deviation of the filling process for the boxes of cereal.
a. ( 0.427,1.144)
b. (0.515,1.105)
c. (0.726,0.726)
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval is [tex]0.6428 < \sigma < 1.0954[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size is n = 29
The sample standard deviation is [tex]s = 0.81[/tex]
Generally the 95% confidence interval to estimate the true standard deviation is mathematically represented as
[tex]\sqrt{\frac{(n- 1)s^2 }{ X^2_( \frac{\alpha }{2 } , n-1)} } < \sigma < \sqrt{\frac{(n- 1)s^2 }{ X^2_(1- \frac{\alpha }{2 } , n-1)} }[/tex]
Generally from the chi -distribution table the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] at a degree of freedom of [tex]df = 29 - 1 = 28[/tex] is
[tex]X^2 _{\frac{\alpha }{2} , 28 } =44.46079184[/tex]
Generally from the chi -distribution table the critical value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] at a degree of freedom of [tex]df = 29 - 1 = 28[/tex] is
[tex]X^2 _{(1 - \frac{\alpha }{2}) , 28 } = 15.30786055[/tex]
So
[tex]\sqrt{\frac{(29- 1)0.81^2 }{ 44.46079184 } } < \sigma < \sqrt{\frac{(29- 1)0.81^2 }{15.315.307860551 }[/tex]
=> [tex]0.6428 < \sigma < 1.0954[/tex]

Which function has vertical asymptotes at x=-1 and x=-2, an x-intercept at(8,0) , and no holes?
Answer:
y = (x - 8)/((x + 1)(x + 2))
Step-by-step explanation:
vertical asymptotes are given as at x=-1 and x=-2
Now, vertical assymptotes are values of x when the denominator is zero.
Thus, the function of the denominator can be written as;
(x + 1)(x + 2)
We are also told that x-intercept at (8,0).
Which means that y is zero when x is 8.
Thus, numerator is 8 when y is zero.
Thus, numerator can be expressed as (x - 8)
Thus,the function is now;
y = (x - 8)/((x + 1)(x + 2))

You stand 20 ft from a bottle rocket on the ground and watch it as it takes off vertically into the air at a rate of 18 ft/sec. Find the rate at which the angle of elevation from the point on the ground at you feet and the rocket changes when the rocket is 40 ft in the air. At the moment the rocket is 40 ft in the air, the angle of elevation is changing at a rate of rad/se.
Answer:
9/50 rad/sec
Step-by-step explanation:
let the angle be represented as ∅
distance form bottle rocket on the ground = 20 ft
height of rocket = 40 ft
solution
first we differentiate w.r.t.time
= sec²(∅)*(d(∅)/dt))=(1/20)*dh/dt --------- ( 1 )
= d(∅)/dt = (1/20)cos²(∅)* (dh/dt) ------- ( 2 )
note : 1/sec(∅) =cos(∅)
therefore ; dh/dt = 18 ft/sec
applying Pythagoras theorem
Tan ∅ = 40 / 20
h^2( hypotenuse ) = a^2( height ) + b^2 ( distance from bottle rocket )
h = √ 40^2 + 20^2 = √ 2000
also cos ( ∅ ) = b / h = 20 / √ 2000
hence cos²∅ = 1/5
Back to equation 2
d(∅)/dt=(1/20)×(1/5)×(18)
= 18/100 = 9/50 ( changing rate of angle of elevation )
On interval 0 ≤ x < 2π, where are the x-intercepts of y = cos(2x)?

w pewnym trapezie o wysokości 6cm jedna z podstaw ma długość 9cm ,a druga jest od niej o 2cm krótsza . Pole tego trapezu wynosi:
Odpowiedź:
48 cm
Wyjaśnienie krok po kroku:
Jeśli się uwzględni:
Wysokość trapezu = 6 cm
Długość podstaw:
Podstawa 1 = a = 9 cm
Podstawa 2 = b = (a - 2) = 9 - 2 = 7 cm
Uaing relacji:
Powierzchnia trapezu = 1/2 (a + b) * h
Powierzchnia trapezu = 0,5 (9 + 7) * 6
Powierzchnia trapezu = 0,5 (16) * 6
Powierzchnia trapezu = 8 * 6
Powierzchnia trapezu = 48 cm

S-IC.2: Decide if a specified model is consistent with results from a given data-generating process, e.g., using simulation.
A drug manufacturer claims that 13% of the population of South Africa is living with HIV. As a World Health Organization researcher, you collect evidence to test this claim. You use statistical techniques to sample 125 random residents of South Africa and find that 20 of them test positive for HIV.
You plan to simulate one sample of 125 residents by randomly selecting 125 integers between 1 and 100.
From your actual sample of 125 residents, what proportion of the sample has HIV? 125
What do the randomly selected numbers represent? Why did you pick 125 of them? The number of residents
What assigned numbers indicate a simulated resident has HIV?
2. You plan to run 100 simulations, each with a random sample of 125 residents.
What do you think the true mean population proportion from the 100 simulations would be close to? Explain why.
Is this a simulation of an observational study or an experimental study? Explain why.
The margin of error for this study is about 0.06 or 6% around the population proportion. Are you able to support the claim of the drug manufacturer? Explain why or why not.
What could be done to make the margin of error smaller and get a better sample of the population? Why does that make sense?
Answer:
gooooooooooooooooo
Step-by-step explanation:
goooooooooooooooooop
1) The proportion of the sample that has HIV is 0.16. 2) The randomly selected numbers represent the HIV status of the simulated residents.
1. The proportion of the sample that has HIV is 20 / 125 = 0.16.
2. The randomly selected numbers represent the HIV status of the simulated residents. We picked 125 of them because that is the sample size of the actual study.
We can assign the numbers 1 to 13 to represent the simulated residents who have HIV. This is because 13% of the population is estimated to have HIV.
I think the true mean population proportion from the 100 simulations would be close to 0.13, the HIV prevalence rate that was estimated in the actual study. This is because the simulations are randomly generated, and the probability of a simulated resident having HIV is 13%.
This is a simulation of an observational study. This is because the researchers are not intervening in the lives of the simulated residents. They are simply observing the HIV status of the simulated residents.
The margin of error for this study is 0.06, which is 6%. This means that the true population proportion of people with HIV could be anywhere between 0.07 and 0.19. The drug manufacturer's claim that 13% of the population has HIV is within this range, so we cannot definitively support or refute their claim.
To make the margin of error smaller and get a better sample of the population, we could increase the sample size. This would give us more data points to work with, which would make our estimate of the population proportion more accurate. Additionally, we could stratify the sample by age, gender, or other factors that could affect the prevalence of HIV. This would help us to ensure that our sample is representative of the entire population.

what are all values of x for which the series shown converges?
Answer:
One convergence criteria that is useful here is that, if aₙ is the n-th term of this sequence, then we must have:
Iaₙ₊₁I < IaₙI
This means that the absolute value of the terms must decrease as n increases.
Then we must have:
[tex]\frac{(x -2)^n}{n*3^n} > \frac{(x -2 )^{n+1}}{(n + 1)*3^{n+1}}[/tex]
We can write this as:
[tex]\frac{(x -2)^n}{n*3^n} > \frac{(x -2 )^{n+1}}{(n + 1)*3^{n+1}} = \frac{(x -2)^n}{(n + 1)*3^n} * \frac{(x - 2)}{3}[/tex]
If we assume that n is a really big number, then:
n + 1 ≈ 1
And we can write:
[tex]\frac{(x -2)^n}{n*3^n} > \frac{(x -2)^n}{(n)*3^n} * \frac{(x - 2)}{3}[/tex]
Then we have the inequality
[tex]1 > (x - 2)/3[/tex]
And remember that this must be in absolute value, then we will have that:
-1 < (x - 2)/3 < 1
-3 < x - 2 < 3
-3 + 2 < x < 3 + 2
-1 < x < 5
The first option looks like this, but it uses the symbols ≤≥, so it is not the same as this, then the correct option will be the second.

Answer:
92°
Step-by-step explanation:
(2x - 2)° = x ° + 45°
(2x - 2 - x)° = 45°
(x - 2)° = 45°
x - 2 = 45
x = 45 + 2
x = 47
(2x - 2)° = (2*47 - 2)° = (94 - 2)* = 92°
Proportions 6. A certain salsa is made with 6 parts tomato and 2 parts bell pepper. How many cups of tomato should be combined with 1.5 cups bell pepper? Write a proportion, then solve.
Answer:
4.5 cups of tomatoes should be combined with 1.5 cups of bell peppers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the salsa is made with 6 parts tomato and 2 parts bell pepper.
Let t be tomatoes and b be bell peppers
The proportion will be:
t:b
The ratio of tomatoes to bell pepper will be:
6:2
This ratio simplifies to 3:1
This means no matter how much more the tomatoes and peppers are, the simplified ratio will be same.
Now the bell peppers are 1.5 cups then the proportion will be:
[tex]t:b::t:b\\6:2::t:1.5\\\frac{6}{2} = \frac{t}{1.5}\\3 = \frac{t}{1.5}\\t = 1.5 * 3\\t =4.5[/tex]
Hence,
4.5 cups of tomatoes should be combined with 1.5 cups of bell peppers.
