Belinda would have to pay $10,765.16  at the end of 18 months to clear the remaining balance.

To calculate the final payment, we need to consider the initial loan amount, the interest rate, and the time period. Belinda borrowed $18,500 at a simple interest rate of 4.40% per year.

She made two payments during the loan period. At the end of 3 months, she paid $5,200, and at the end of 6 months, she paid $3,200. These payments reduce the outstanding balance.

To calculate the remaining balance after the initial payments, we subtract the total amount paid from the initial loan amount:

Remaining Balance = Initial Loan Amount - Total Amount Paid

= $18,500 - ($5,200 + $3,200) = $10,100

Now, we need to calculate the interest accrued on the remaining balance for the remaining 12 months (18 months - 6 months). To calculate the interest, we use the formula: Interest = Principal * Rate * Time.

Interest = $10,100 * 0.044 * (12/12) = $443.44

Finally, we add the interest accrued to the remaining balance to find the final payment: Final Payment = Remaining Balance + Interest Accrued = $10,100 + $443.44 = $10,543.44

Therefore, Belinda would have to pay $10,543.44 at the end of 18 months to clear the balance. However, since we are using 'now' as the focal date, and 18 months have already passed, we need to account for the additional 6 months that have elapsed. Hence, the final payment becomes:

Final Payment = Remaining Balance + Interest Accrued for the additional 6 months = $10,100 + $443.44 + ($10,100 * 0.044 * (6/12)) = $10,765.16. Therefore, Belinda would have to pay $10,765.16 at the end of 18 months from 'now' to clear the balance.

If you turn off the spaceship's engine and it continues to glide in a straight line in the direction it was when the engine was stopped, we first have to find the speed of the spacecraft, which can be given by the formula:

At t=1, the coordinates of the spaceship are (1,0). If we switch off the engine at this moment, the spaceship will continue to move in a straight line in the direction of its velocity vector, which is (1,0) at t=1.

At t=2, the coordinates of the spaceship are (2,1). If we switch off the engine at this moment, the spaceship will continue to move in a straight line in the direction of its velocity vector, which is (1,2) at t=2.

Therefore, at t=1 the spacecraft will move horizontally in a straight line. At t=2, the ship will move on a straight line with slope 2, passing through the point (2,1).

The question said how do i feel about the distance formular.

First let's know what the distance formular is all about.

The distance formular is an algebraic expression that gives the distnces between pairs of points in terms of their coordinates.

In two and three dimensional Euclidean space, the distance formular for points in rectangular coordinates are based on the Pythagorean theorem. The distance between the points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by;

√(a - c)² + (b - d)².

In three dimensional space, the distance between the points (a, b, c) and (d, e, f) is

√(a - d)² + (b - e)² + (c - f)².

From the explanation and definition about the distance formular above, what i feel is that it enables getting points and distances within a plane possible and easy.

The inner product of two vectors A = (2, -3,0) and B = (-1,0,5) is -2 / √(13×26).

Solving the given system of equations using Gaussian elimination:

2x + 3y + z = 2 y + 5z = 20 -x+2y+3z = 13

Matrix form of the system is

[A] = [B] 2 3 1 | 2 0 5 | 20 -1 2 3 | 13

Divide row 1 by 2 and replace row 1 by the new row 1: 1 3/2 1/2 | 1

Divide row 2 by 5 and replace row 2 by the new row 2: 0 1 1 | 4

Divide row 3 by -1 and replace row 3 by the new row 3: 0 0 1 | 5

Back substitution, replace z = 5 into second equation to solve for y, y + 5(5) = 20 y = -5

Back substitution, replace z = 5 and y = -5 into the first equation to solve for x, 2x + 3(-5) + 5 = 2 2x - 15 + 5 = 2 2x = 12 x = 6

The solution is (x,y,z) = (6,-5,5)

Therefore, the solution to the given system of equations using Gaussian elimination is (x,y,z) = (6,-5,5).

The given two vectors are A = (2, -3,0) and B = = (-1,0,5). The inner product of two vectors A and B is given by

A·B = |A||B|cosθ

Given,A = (2, -3,0) and B = (-1,0,5)

Magnitude of A is |A| = √(2²+(-3)²+0²) = √13

Magnitude of B is |B| = √((-1)²+0²+5²) = √26

Dot product of A and B is A·B = 2(-1) + (-3)(0) + 0(5) = -2

\(x=8\) and \(y=8\) are the two positive integers whose sum is \(16\) and sum of their squares is minimum.

What is optimum value ?

The optimum value is a minimum or maximum value of the objective function over the feasible region of an optimization problem.

If a function is strictly increasing in a definite interval and increases up to a fixed value and after this, it starts decreasing, then that point is called maximum point of the function and value of function at that point is called maximum value.

If a function is strictly decreasing in a definite interval and decreases up to a fixed value and after this, it starts increasing, then that points is called minimum point of the function and the value of function at that point is called minimum value.

Conditions for finding maxima and minima

The conditions for maxima and minima for a function \(y=f(x)\) at a point \(x=a\)  are as follow:

1. Necessary condition

for maxima and minima, the necessary condition is

\(f'(x)=\frac{dy}{dx}\)

2.Suffiecient condition

for maxima and minima, the  necessary condition are

for maximum value

at \(x=a,\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\) should be negative.

for minimum value

at \(x=a, \frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\) should be positive.

The sum of two positive number is \(16\).

We have to find the maximum and minimum value for the sum of their squares.

The sum of two positive number is 16.

let the number be \(x\) and \(y\), such that \(x > 0\) and \(y > 0\)

sum of the number is \(x+y=16\)

sum of squares of the number \(S=x^2+y^2\)

\(x+y=16\\y=16-x ----------1\\S=x^2+y^2\\S=x^2+(16-x)^2-----------2\)after substituting the value of y from equation 1

for finding the maximum and minimum of given function we can find it by differentiating the function with \(x\) equal it to \(0\)

Differentiate the equation 2

\(\frac{dS}{dx} =\frac{d}{dx}[x^2+(16-x)^2]\\\frac{dS}{dx}=\frac{d}{dx}(x^2)+\frac{d}{dx}(16-x^2)\\ \frac{dS}{dx}=2x+2(16-x)(-1)---------3\)

Now equating the first derivative equal to zero

so, \(\frac{dS}{dx}=0\)

\(2x+2(16-x)(-1)=0\\2x-2(16-x)=0\\2x-32+2x=0\\4x-32=0\\4x=32\\x=\frac{32}{4}=8\)

As \(x > 0, x=8\)

Now, for checking if the value of \(S\) is minimum or maximum at \(x=8\), we will perform the second derivative of \(S\) with respect to \(x\)

\(\frac{d^2S}{dx^2}=\frac{d}{dx}[2x+2(16-x)(-1)]\\\frac{d^2S}{dx^2}=\frac{d}{dx}[2x-2(16-x)]\\\frac{d^2S}{dx^2}=\frac{d}{dx}(2x)-2\frac{d}{dx}(16-x)\\\frac{d^2S}{dx^2}=2-2(0-1)\\\frac{d^2S}{dx^2}=2-0+2=4\\\frac{d^2S}{dx^2}=4\)

According to the sufficient condition if the second derivative is positive then the value is minimum

hence for \(x=8\) will be the minimum point of the function \(S\).

Therefore the function \(S\) sum of squares of the two number is minimum at \(x=8\)

from equation \(1\)

\(y=16-x\\y=16-8\\y=8\)

Therefore , \(x=8\) and \(y=8\) are the two positive numbers whose sum is \(16\) and the sum of their squares is minimum.

A one-way ANOVA is the proper null hypothesis test to use when comparing the mean social skills scores of psychology, chemistry, and philosophy majors.

To determine if the means of three or more groups differ significantly from one another, an ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) is employed. In this case, the three groups are psychology, chemistry, and philosophy majors, and the null hypothesis would be that there are no significant differences in the mean social skills scores between the three groups.

On the other hand, a test of Pearson's correlation coefficient is used to measure the strength and direction of the linear relationship between two continuous variables. A paired samples t-test is used when comparing the means of two related groups, while an independent-samples t-test is used when comparing the means of two independent groups.

The distribution function of M, FM(-), is given by FM(x) = x, 0 ≤ x ≤ 1.

The probability density function of M is\(fM(x) = n * x^(^n^-^1^)\), 0 ≤ x ≤ 1.

In order to understand the distribution function of M, we need to consider the probability that M is less than or equal to a given value x. Since each Xi is uniformly distributed over (0,1), the probability that Xi is less than or equal to x is x.

For M to be less than or equal to x, all of the random variables Xi must be less than or equal to x. Since these variables are independent, their joint probability is the product of their individual probabilities. Therefore, the probability that M is less than or equal to x can be expressed as the product of n x's: P(M ≤ x) = x * x * ... * x = \(x^n\).

The distribution function FM(x) is defined as the probability that M is less than or equal to x. Therefore, FM(x) = P(M ≤ x) = \(x^n\).

To find the probability density function (PDF) of M, we differentiate the distribution function FM(x) with respect to x. Taking the derivative of \(x^n\)with respect to x gives us \(n * x^(^n^-^1^)\). Since the range of M is (0,1), the PDF is defined only within this range.

The distribution function of M is FM(x) = x, 0 ≤ x ≤ 1, and the probability density function of M is \(fM(x) = n * x^(^n^-^1^)\), 0 ≤ x ≤ 1.

The equation in slope-intercept form for Bill's finances is \(\(y = -75x + 975\).\) This equation represents the amount of money remaining in Bill's account for extra expenses at the end of each month.

Let's assume the number of months passed since January as "m" and the amount of money remaining in Bill's account for extra expenses at the end of each month as "y".

We are given the following information: In January (x = 1), Bill has not started spending yet, so he has all his expenses available. Therefore, at the beginning of January, he has $900 (y = 900) remaining for extra expenses.

Each month, Bill spends $75 on extra expenses. So, as the number of months increases, the remaining amount decreases.

Now, let's set up the equation in point-slope form using the point (1, 900) and the slope (-75): \(\[y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\]\)

where:

\(\(y_1 = 900\) (remaining amount in January)\\\(m = -75\) (slope, indicating $75 reduction each month)\\\(x_1 = 1\) (January)\\\)

Now plug in the values: \(\[y - 900 = -75(x - 1)\]\)

Next, let's simplify the equation and convert it to slope-intercept form (y = mx + b) where "b" represents the y-intercept (the remaining amount when x = 0, i.e., the start of the year).

\(\[y - 900 = -75x + 75\]\)

To isolate "y," add 900 to both sides: \(\[y = -75x + 975\]\)

So, the equation in slope-intercept form for Bill's finances is \(\(y = -75x + 975\).\) This equation represents the amount of money remaining in Bill's account for extra expenses at the end of each month.

The linear regression y = β1 + β2x + e, assuming that the sum of squared errors (SSE) takes the following form:

SSE = 382 + 681 + 382 + 18β1β2

Derive the partial derivatives of SSE with respect to β1 and β2 and solve the optimal values of these parameters.

Given that SSE = 382 + 681 + 382 + 18β1β2 ∂SSE/∂β1 = 0 ∂SSE/∂β2 = 0

Now, we need to find the partial derivative of SSE with respect to β1.

∂SSE/∂β1 = 0 + 0 + 0 + 18β2 ⇒ 18β2 = 0 ⇒ β2 = 0

Therefore, we obtain the optimal value of β2 as 0.

Now, we need to find the partial derivative of SSE with respect to β2. ∂SSE/∂β2 = 0 + 0 + 0 + 18β1 ⇒ 18β1 = 0 ⇒ β1 = 0

Therefore, we obtain the optimal value of β1 as 0. Hence, the partial derivative of SSE with respect to β1 is 18β2 and the partial derivative of SSE with respect to β2 is 18β1.

Thus, the optimal values of β1 and β2 are 0 and 0, respectively.
