Allen is showing his work in simplifying −8.3 + 9.2 − 4.4 + 3.7. Identify any errors in his work or in his reasoning.


Step Work Reasoning
−8.3 + 9.2 − 4.4 + 3.7 Original problem
1 −8.3 + 9.2 + 4.4 + 3.7 Additive inverse
2 −8.3 + 4.4 + 9.2 + 3.7 Commutative property
3 −8.3 + (4.4 + 9.2 + 3.7) Associative property
4 −8.3 + 17.3 Simplify
5 9 Simplify
He did not make any errors.
Step 1: He wrote −4.4 incorrectly as + 4.4.
Step 2: He identified changing the order of the numbers as the commutative property, which is incorrect.
Step 3: He identified changing the grouping of the numbers as the associative property, which is incorrect.

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation: First, you use the PEMDAS method which is parenthese, exponent, multiplication division, addition and subtraction.

So,  there is parenthese, exponent, multiplaction or division.

Now, first you add -8.3 + 9.2= 0.9, then subtract 0.9 by 4.4= -3.5, now add -3.5 + 3.7= 0.2

Use the original problem and use the PEMDAS method.

Hope this helps!!

a student walks 50m on a bearing 0.25 degrees and then 200m due east how far is she from her starting point.​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to use Physics here for this concept of vectors. Here are some stipulations I have set for the problem (aka rules I set and then followed throughout the problem):

** I am counting the 50 m as 2 significant digits even though it is only 1, and I am counting 200 as 3 significant digits even though it is only 1. 1 sig dig doesn't really give us enough accuracy, in my opinion.

** A bearing of .25 degrees is measured from the North and goes clockwise; that means that measured from the x axis, the angle is 89.75 degrees. This is the angle that is used in place of the bearing of .25 degrees.

** Due east has an angle measure of 0 degrees

Now let's begin.

We need to find the x and y components of both of these vectors. I am going to call the first vector A and the second B, while the resultant vector will be C. Starting with the x components of A and B:

[tex]A_x=50cos(89.75)[/tex] so

[tex]A_x=.22[/tex]

[tex]B_x=200cos(0)[/tex] so

[tex]B_x=200[/tex] and we need to add those results together. Due to the rules for adding significant digits properly, the answer is

[tex]C_x=200[/tex] (and remember I am counting that as 3 sig fig's even though it's only 1).

Now for the y components:

[tex]A_y=50sin(89.75)[/tex] so

[tex]A_y=50[/tex] (which I'm counting as 2 sig fig's)

[tex]B_y=200sin(0)[/tex] so

[tex]B_y=0[/tex] and we need to add those results together.

[tex]C_y=50[/tex]

Now for the resultant magnitude:

[tex]C_{mag}=\sqrt{(200)^2+(50)^2}[/tex]  and that gives us a final magnitude of

[tex]C_{mag}=206[/tex] m

Now for the angle:

Since both the x and y components of the resultant vector are in quadrant 1, we don't need to add anything to the angle to get it right, so

[tex]tan^{-1}(\frac{50}{200})=14[/tex]

The girl is 206 meters from her starting point at an angle of 14 degrees

Rodney and their roommates are making homemade pizza for dinner. Rodney tells his roommates that he would like for his slice to be cut at a 100 degree angle. The pizza has a diameter of 20 inches. To the nearest tenth of an inch, find the area of Rodney's slice of pizza. Approximate pi at 3.14.

Answers

Answer:

Area of pizza slice = 87 inches² (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Angle cut of pizza = 100°

Diameter of pizza = 20 inches

Find:

Area of pizza slice

Computation:

Area of sector = [Ф / 360][π][r²]

Area of pizza slice = [100/360][3.14][(20/2)²]

Area of pizza slice = [100/360][3.14][(10)²]

Area of pizza slice = [100/360][3.14][100]

Area of pizza slice = [0.2778][3.14][100]

Area of pizza slice = 87.2292

Area of pizza slice = 87 inches² (Approx.)

y=2x+3; y=-1/3x+3
y=2x; y=-1/3x
y=3x+2; y=3x-1
y=-3x+3; y=x+3

Answers

Answer:  Choice A

y=2x+3; y=-1/3x+3

==================================================

Explanation:

The left portion of the blue curve is y = 2x+3 but it is only graphed when x < 0 (we could argue that [tex]x \le 0[/tex] but I'll set that aside for the other portion).

The right portion is the line y = -1/3x + 3 and it's only graphed when [tex]x \ge 0[/tex]

So we could have this piecewise function

[tex]f(x) = \begin{cases}2x+3 \ \text{ if } x < 0\\-\frac{1}{3}x+3 \ \text{ if } x \ge 0\\\end{cases}[/tex]

Or we could easily swap the "or equal to" portion to move to the first part instead like this

[tex]f(x) = \begin{cases}2x+3 \ \text{ if } x \le 0\\-\frac{1}{3}x+3 \ \text{ if } x > 0\\\end{cases}[/tex]

Either way, we're involving the equations mentioned in choice A

The number of days ahead travelers purchase their airline tickets can be modeled by an exponential distribution with the average amount of time equal to 15 days. Find the probability that a traveler will purchase a ticket fewer than ten days in advance. How many days do half of all travelers wait

Answers

Answer:

The right answer is:

(a) 0.4866

(b) 10.3972

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the number of days,

X is [tex]exp(\lambda)[/tex],

⇒ [tex]\lambda =\frac{1}{15}[/tex]

now,

⇒ [tex]F_x(x) = P(X \leq x)[/tex]

              [tex]=1-e^{-\lambda x}[/tex]

              [tex]=1-e^{-\frac{x}{15} }[/tex]

or,

[tex]x>0[/tex]

(a)

⇒ [tex]P(X<10)=F_x(10)[/tex]

                      [tex]=1-e^{\frac{10}{15} }[/tex]

                      [tex]=1-e^{\frac{2}{3} }[/tex]

                      [tex]=0.4866[/tex]

(b)

If the medium be m, then

[tex]P(X=m) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

                 [tex]=2^{-1}[/tex]

⇒[tex]1-e^{-\frac{m}{15} } = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

        [tex]e^{-\frac{m}{15} } = 2^{-1}[/tex]

             [tex]m= 15\ ln2[/tex]

                 [tex]=10.3972[/tex]

Prime factorization of 36=2×2×3×3

Prime factorization of 48=2×2×2×2×3

H0 : μd = 0

H0 : μd ≠ 0

The mean of d, dbar = Σd / n = 44 / 18 = 2.44

The standard deviation, Sd = 4.45 (using calculator)

The test statistic, T : dbar / (Sd/√n)

T = 2.44 / (4.45/√18)

T = 2.44 / 1.0488750

T = 2.326

Solve the equation for all values of x.

Help please

Answers

Answer:

7i/sqrt(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

so, if I understand correctly, the equation is

(22-16)(2x² + 49) = 0

6(2x² + 49) = 0

that automatically means

2x² + 49 = 0

2x² = -49

x² = -49/2

x = sqrt(-49/2)

a square root of a negative number has no real solution. the solution is in the world of complex and imaginary numbers, which bases on the sqrt(-1) = i.

so, we get

x = sqrt(49/2 × -1) = (7/sqrt(2)) × I = 7i/sqrt(2)
