Step-by-step explanation:

The product of two linear functions having same variables will be a quadratic function where as the The product of two linear functions having different variables will be a linear function.

Linear function is the function whose degree is 1.

Degree of a function is the highest power of the variable of the function.

Let us take two examples.

1. Suppose the two linear functions are -

f(x) = 2x + 3 and g (x) = x + 5

The product of f(x) and g(x) will be

(2x + 3)(x + 5)

=2x (x + 5) + 3 (x + 5)

= 2x² + 10x + 3x + 15

= 2x² + 13x + 15

Here, f(x) and g(x) are the functions having same variables so there product is a quadratic function.

2. Suppose the two linear functions are -

f(x) = 2x + 3 and g (y) = y + 5

The product of f(x) and g(y) will be

(2x + 3)(y + 5)

=2x (y + 5) + 3 (y + 5)

= 2xy + 10x + 3y + 15

Here, f(x) and g(y) are the functions having different variables so there product is a linear function.

Answer:

The answer is 30

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to find 120% of a (12).

\( \frac{12}{1} \times \frac{120}{100} = 14.4\)

Therefore; 14.4 is 80% of b, and we are trying to find 100% of b

\(14.4 = 80\% \\ x = 100\%\)

we do not know what is 100% therefore we call it *x*. In order to find this unknown value *x* we cross multiply.

\(14.4 \times 100\% = 80\% \times x\)

This is the same as saying;

\(14.4 \times 1 = x \times \frac{4}{5} \)

100% percent would be 1 because it is the whole number we are trying to find. The 80% would be 4/5. To get 4/5 you can simply break down 80/100 ( this is 80% as a fraction).

so the new equation is: 14.4= 4/5x

We divide both sides by 4/5. Then we will get x tobe equal to 18. Therefore b is 18. We were asked to find (a + b) so. 18+12 = 30

Answer:

4833 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that her angle of elevation at the first recording is 47.3 at an altitude of 4900 m

We use Pythagoras Theorem to get this done

We can say that the opposite of the angle is the altitude, while the hypotenuse of the triangle, is the distance between herself and the top

Using the sine angle rule, we have

Sine 47.3 = 4900 / h

h = 4900 / sin 47.3

h = 4900 / 0.7349

h = 6668 m

This means that she was 6668 m away from the top of the mountain

She then moves 1000 m closer to the mountain top, this means that our h = 6668 - 1000

Using the same sine angle rule, we have

Sine 58.5 = o / 5668

o = 5668 * sine 58.5

o = 5668 * 0.8526

o = 4833 m

She is 4833 m above the sea level

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) When completing the square for a quadratic equation in the form ax² + bx + c where the leading coefficient is one, we need to add the square of half the coefficient of the x-term:

\(x^2-14x+\left(\dfrac{-14}{2}\right)^2\)

\(x^2-14x+\left(-7\right)^2\)

\(x^2-14x+49\)

We have now created a perfect square trinomial in the form a² - 2ab + b². To factor a perfect square trinomial, use the following formula:

\(\boxed{a^2 -2ab + b^2 = (a -b)^2}\)

Therefore:

\(a^2=x^2 \implies a=1\)

\(b^2=49=7^2\implies b = 7\)

Therefore, the perfect square trinomial rewritten as a binomial squared is:

\(x^2-14x+\boxed{49}=\left(x-\boxed{7}\right)^2\)

(b) When completing the square for a quadratic equation where the leading coefficient is not one, we need to add the square of the coefficient of the x-term once it is halved and divided by the leading coefficient, and then multiply it by the leading coefficient:

\(9x^2 + 30x +9\left(\dfrac{30}{2 \cdot 9}\right)^2\)

\(9x^2 + 30x +9\left(\dfrac{5}{3}\right)^2\)

\(9x^2 + 30x +9 \cdot \dfrac{25}{9}\)

\(9x^2 + 30x +25\)

We have now created a perfect square trinomial in the form a² + 2ab + b². To factor a perfect square trinomial, use the following formula:

\(\boxed{a^2 +2ab + b^2 = (a +b)^2}\)

Therefore:

\(a^2=9x^2 = (3x)^2 \implies a = 3x\)

\(b^2=25 = 5^2 \implies b = 5\)

Therefore, the perfect square trinomial rewritten as a binomial squared is:

\(9x^2 + 30x +\boxed{25}= \left(3x +\boxed{5}\right)^2\)

(a) Factor out the leading coefficient 3 from the given expression:

\(3x^2-24x+48=3\left(x^2-\boxed{8}\:x+\boxed{16}\right)\)

We have now created a perfect square trinomial in the form a² - 2ab + b² inside the parentheses. To factor a perfect square trinomial, use the following formula:

\(\boxed{a^2 -2ab + b^2 = (a -b)^2}\)

Factor the perfect square trinomial inside the parentheses:

                        \(=3\left(x-\boxed{4}\right)^2\)

(a) Factor out the leading coefficient 1/2 from the given expression:

\(\dfrac{1}{2}x^2+8x+32=\dfrac{1}{2}\left(x^2+\boxed{16}\:x+\boxed{64}\right)\)

We have now created a perfect square trinomial in the form a² + 2ab + b² inside the parentheses. To factor a perfect square trinomial, use the following formula:

\(\boxed{a^2+2ab + b^2 = (a +b)^2}\)

Factor the perfect square trinomial inside the parentheses:

                        \(=\dfrac{1}{2}\left(x+\boxed{8}\right)^2\)

Answer:If an N-gon (polygon with N sides) has perimeter P, then each of the  

N sides has length P/N.  If we connect two adjacent vertices to the  

center, the angle between these two lines is 360/N degrees, or 2*pi/N  

radians.  (Do you understand radian measure well enough to follow me  

this far?)

The two lines I just drew, plus the side of the polygon between them,  

form an isosceles triangle.  Adding the altitude of the isosceles  

triangle makes two right triangles, and we can use one of them to  

derive the equation

 sin(theta/2) =  s/(2R)

where theta is the apex angle (which I said is 2*pi/N radians), R is  

the length of the lines to the center (the radius of the circumscribed  

circle), and s is the length of the side (which I said is P/N).

Putting those values into the equation, we have

 sin(pi/N) = P/(2NR)

so that

 P = 2NR sin(pi/N)

gives the perimeter of the N-gon with circumradius R.

Can we see a connection between this formula and the perimeter of a  

circle?  The perimeter of the circumcircle is 2*pi*R.  As we increase  

N, the perimeter of the polygon should get closer and closer to this  

value.  Comparing the two, we see

 2NR*sin(pi/N) approaches 2*pi*R

 N*sin(pi/N)   approaches pi

You can check this out with a calculator, using big numbers for N such  

as your teacher's N=1000.  If you calculate the sine of an angle in  

degrees rather than radians, the formula will look like

 N*sin(180/N) --> pi

Theoretical Probability of rolling a 2= 1/20

Experimental Probability of rolling a 2 =  1/20

Theoretical probability of rolling a 2:

The theoretical probability of an event is the ratio of the number of favourable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes. Since there are 8 sides to the cube, the total number of possible outcomes is 8. Since the number 2 appeared 200 times out of 4000 rolls, the number of favorable outcomes is 200. Therefore, the theoretical probability of rolling a 2 is:

Theoretical Probability of rolling a 2 = Number of favourable outcomes / Total number of possible outcomes = 200/4000 = 1/20

Experimental probability of rolling a 2:

The experimental probability of an event is the ratio of the number of times the event occurred to the total number of trials. In this case, the  event is rolling a 2, which occurred 200 times out of 4000 rolls.    

Therefore, the experimental probability of rolling a 2 is:

Experimental Probability of rolling a 2 = Number of times the event occurred / Total number of trials = 200/4000 = 1/20

Comparing theoretical and experimental probability:

If the cube is fair, we would expect the theoretical probability and the experimental probability to be similar. In this case, both probabilities are 1/20, which means that the cube appears to be fair. However, we would need to conduct more trials to be more confident in our conclusion.

Answer:

a. 0.1681 = 16.81% probability that all five qualify for the favorable rate.

b. 0.5283 = 52.83% probability that at least four qualify for the favorable rates

Step-by-step explanation:

For each Puerto Rico resident, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they qualify for discounted rates, or they do not. The probability of a person in the sample qualifying for discounted rates is independent of any other person in the sample. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

\(P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}\)

In which \(C_{n,x}\) is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

\(C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}\)

And p is the probability of X happening.

70% of the island residents of Puerto Rico have reduced their electricity usage sufficiently to qualify for discounted rates.

This means that \(p = 0.7\)

Five residential subscribers are randomly selected from San Juan, Puerto Rico

This means that \(n = 5\)

a. All five qualify for the favorable rate

This is P(X = 5). So

\(P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}\)

\(P(X = 5) = C_{5,5}.(0.7)^{5}.(0.3)^{0} = 0.1681\)

0.1681 = 16.81% probability that all five qualify for the favorable rate.

b. At least four qualify for the favorable rates

This is

\(P(X \geq 4) = P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)\)

So

\(P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}\)

\(P(X = 4) = C_{5,4}.(0.7)^{4}.(0.3)^{1} = 0.3602\)

\(P(X = 5) = C_{5,5}.(0.7)^{5}.(0.3)^{0} = 0.1681\)

\(P(X \geq 4) = P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 0.3602 + 0.1681 = 0.5283\)

0.5283 = 52.83% probability that at least four qualify for the favorable rates
