Which of the following is equivalent to (x - 2)^2
(x - 2)(x+2)
(2-2)(x - 2)
(x-2)(x+2)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(x-2)(x-2) or (x+2)(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

since you are squaring it, technically the terms are negative, but the product will be positive. when you multiply two negative factors, you get a positive answer. so either both can be negative or both can be positive.

Marine biologists have determined that when a shark detectsthe presence of blood in the water, it will swim in the directionin which the concentration of the blood increases mostrapidly. Based on certain tests in seawater, theconcentration of blood(in parts per million) at point P(x,y) on thesurface is approximated by:

C(x,y)= e^- (x^2+2y^2).10^4

where x and y are measured in meters in a rectangularcoordinate system with the blood source at the origin.
a. Identify the level curves of the concentration function andsketch several members of this family together with a path that ashark will follow to the source.
b. Suppose a shark is at the point (xo, yo) when it first detects the presenceof blood in the water. Find an equation of the shark's path bysetting up and solving a differential equation.

Answers

Solution :

a). The level curves of the function :

[tex]$C(x,y) = e^{-(x^2+2y^2)/10^4}$[/tex]

are actually the curves

[tex]$e^{-(x^2+2y^2)/10^4}=k$[/tex]

where k is a positive constant.

The equation is equivalent to

[tex]$x^2+2y^2=K$[/tex]

[tex]$\Rightarrow \frac{x^2}{(\sqrt K)^2}+\frac{y^2}{(\sqrt {K/2})^2}=1, \text{ where}\ K = -10^4 \ln k$[/tex]

which is a family of ellipses.

We sketch the level curves for K =1,2,3 and 4.

If the shark always swim in the direction of maximum increase of blood concentration, its direction at any point would coincide with the gradient vector.

Then we know the shark's path is perpendicular to the level curves it intersects.

b). We have :

[tex]$\triangledown C= \frac{\partial C}{\partial x}i+\frac{\partial C}{\partial y}j$[/tex]

[tex]$\Rightarrow \triangledown C =-\frac{2}{10^4}e^{-(x^2+2y^2)/10^4}(xi+2yj),$[/tex] and

[tex]$\triangledown C$[/tex] points in the direction of most rapid increase in concentration, which means [tex]$\triangledown C$[/tex] is tangent to the most rapid increase curve.

[tex]$r(t)=x(t)i+y(t)j$[/tex]  is a parametrization of the most [tex]$\text{rapid increase curve}$[/tex] , then

[tex]$\frac{dx}{dt}=\frac{dx}{dt}i+\frac{dy}{dt}j$[/tex] is a tangent to the curve.

So then we have that [tex]$\frac{dr}{dt}=\lambda \triangledown C$[/tex]

[tex]$\Rightarrow \frac{dx}{dt}=-\frac{2\lambda x}{10^4}e^{-(x^2+2y^2)/10^4}, \frac{dy}{dt}=-\frac{4\lambda y}{10^4}e^{-(x^2+2y^2)/10^4} $[/tex]

∴ [tex]$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{dy/dt}{dx/dt}=\frac{2y}{x}$[/tex]

Using separation of variables,

[tex]$\frac{dy}{y}=2\frac{dx}{x}$[/tex]

[tex]$\int\frac{dy}{y}=2\int \frac{dx}{x}$[/tex]

[tex]$\ln y=2 \ln x$[/tex]

⇒ y = kx^2 for some constant k

but we know that [tex]$y(x_0)=y_0$[/tex]

[tex]$\Rightarrow kx_0^2=y_0$[/tex]

[tex]$\Rightarrow k =\frac{y_0}{x_0^2}$[/tex]

∴ The path of the shark will follow is along the parabola

[tex]$y=\frac{y_0}{x_0^2}x^2$[/tex]

[tex]$y=y_0\left(\frac{x}{x_0}\right)^2$[/tex]

Answers

Hello and good day.

For this question you will use multiplication.

We know that the first same is 2 inches long and the second sample is 14 times long as the first sample.

When some thing says times, it uses multiplication, especially when mentioned in word problems.

So 14 times 2 = 28.

The answer is: The second sample is 28 inches.

56 times a number minus 13 is equal to 6 less than the number.

Step 1 of 2: Write out the equation.

Answers

Answer:

The equation is 56x - 13 = x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say our 'number' is x. If it says it's 56 times our number, it's 56x. Minus 13, which is 56x - 13. If it is equal than 6 less than the number, then it is x - 6.

So the equation is 56x - 13 = x - 6

The Antique Auto News charges $10 for a 10-word classified ad. Each additional word costs $0.40. For an extra $40, a seller can include a photo in the ad. How much would a 20-word ad with a photo cost?

Answers

Answer: $60

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is why:

For 20 -word ad it will be $20 because of twice the amount of the 10 word amount. and another $40 for the photo!

And you get $60!

Any Questions

It will cost $54 for an 20 word ad and a photo.

We have Antique Auto News agency which charges $10 for a 10-word classified ad. Each additional word costs $0.40 and for an extra $40, a seller can include a photo in the ad.

We have to determine much would it cost for a 20-word ad with a photo.

Starting from x, if the bacteria count rises by 5 every second, then determine the formula to calculate the bacteria count after 30 seconds.

Initial count = x

Count increasing per second = 5

Assume that the bacteria count after t seconds is y. Then -

y = x + 5t

for t = 30 ↔ y = 150 + x

According to the question, we have -

Cost of 10-word classified ad → $10

Additional word cost → $0.40

Additional Photo cost → $40

Therefore -

Assume that for a 20-word ad with a photo costs $x.

Therefore -

x = 10 + 0.40 x 10 + 40

x = 10 + 4 + 40

x = 54

Hence, it will cost $54 for an 20 word ad and a photo.

A large national bank determines if each of its branches is profitable or not profitable. Additionally, the location of each branch is classified as urban, suburban, or rural. A summary of the profitability and location type of a random sample of 175 of the bank’s branches is shown in the table.

Profitable Not Profitable
Urban 64 17
Suburban 39 22
Rural 18 15

(a) From the sample of 175 branches summarized above:

(i) What proportion of branches are profitable?
(ii) What proportion of branches from an urban location are profitable?
(iii) What proportion of branches from a rural location are profitable?

(b) Assuming the conditions for inference are met, does the data provide convincing statistical evidence that profitability and location type are independent for the bank at a 5 percent level of significance? Complete the appropriate inference procedure to support your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

i) (64+39+18)/(175)=0.691

ii) 64/(64+17)=0.79

iii) 18/(18+15)=0.55

(1) The proportion of branches that are profitable 121/175.

2) Proportion of branches from an urban location that is profitable 64/175.

3) The proportion of branches from a rural location is profitable 33/175.

It is given that:

From the sample of 175 branches,

                Profitable Not Profitable

Urban                64                17

Suburban          39               22

Rural                  18                15

Total number of samples = 175

What is a proportion?

Proportion is a part, share, or number considered in comparative relation to a whole.

(1) The proportion of branches that are profitable:

= (64+39+18)/175

=121/175

2) Proportion of branches from an urban location that is profitable:

=64/175

3) The proportion of branches from a rural location is profitable:

=(18+15)/175 = 33/175

Therefore, (1) The proportion of branches that are profitable 121/175.

2) Proportion of branches from an urban location that is profitable 64/175.

3) The proportion of branches from a rural location is profitable 33/175.

Step-by-step explanation:

3(y+2 / 5) = -1/5 ------- First you need to do what is outside of the paranthesis which is 3, so divide both sides by 3.

(y + 2 / 5) = -1/15 ------- Next, you multiply both sides by 5 given the denominator is 5 on the left side.

First USA, a major credit card company, is planning a new offer for their current cardholders. The offer will give double airline miles on purchases for the next 6 months if the cardholder goes online and registers for the offer. To test the effectiveness of the campaign, First USA recently sent out offers to a random sample of 50,000 cardholders. Of those, 1184 registered. Give a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of those cardholders who will register for the offer.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "[tex]0.02235 \ and \ 0.02501[/tex]".

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]x= 1184\\\\n = 50000\\\\c = 95\% = 0.95[/tex]

The sample proportion is computed by subtracting that sample size by both the successes:

[tex]\hat{p}=\frac{x}{n} =\frac{1184}{50000}= 0.02368[/tex]

Determine [tex]z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}} = Z_{0.025}[/tex] using table Z in Table Z for trust level [tex]1 -\alpha = 0.95[/tex]

add using appendix F ((0.025) inside the table, therefore the z-score is the found z-score with negative sign):

So, the boundaries of the confidence interval:

[tex]\to \hat{p}-z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}} \cdot \sqrt{\frac{\hat{p} (1-\hat{p})}{n}} = 0.02368 - 1.96 \cdot \sqrt{\frac{0.02368(1-0.02368)}{50000}}\approx 0.02235 \\\\\to \hat{p}-z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}} \cdot \sqrt{\frac{\hat{p} (1-\hat{p})}{n}} = 0.02368 + 1.96 \cdot \sqrt{\frac{0.02368(1-0.02368)}{50000}}\approx 0.02501\\\\[/tex]
