4) In a clinical test with 2353 subjects, 1136 showed improvement from the treatment.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1217

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Subjects = 2353[/tex]

[tex]Improvement = 1136[/tex]

Required

The number that didn't improve --- missing from the question.

Let the unimproved be represented as x.

So, we have:

[tex]x + Improvement = Subjects[/tex]

Substitute known values

[tex]x + 1136 = 2353[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]x =- 1136 + 2353[/tex]

[tex]x =1217[/tex]

D. [tex]3x\sqrt{2x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem gives on the following equation:

[tex]\sqrt{32x^3}+-\sqrt{16x^3}+4\sqrt{x^3}-2\sqrt{x^3}[/tex]

Alongside the information that ([tex]x\geq0[/tex]).

One must bear in mind that the operation ([tex]\sqrt[/tex]) indicates that one has to find the number that when multiplied by itself will yield the number underneath the radical. The easiest way to find such a number is to factor the term underneath the radical. Rewrite the terms under the radical as the product of prime numbers,

[tex]\sqrt{2*2*2*2*2*x*x*x}-\sqrt{2*2*2*2*x*x*x}+4\sqrt{x*x*x}-\sqrt{2*x*x*x}[/tex]

Now remove the duplicate factors from underneath the radical,

[tex]2*2*x\sqrt{2x}-2*2*x\sqrt{x}+4x\sqrt{x}-2x\sqrt{x}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x}{x + 1} + \frac{2}{x-3}] * \frac{x^3 - 9x}{x}[/tex]

[tex]x = 54.78[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]V(x) = [C_1(x) + C_2(x)](H(x))[/tex]

[tex]C_1(x) = \frac{x}{x+1}[/tex]

[tex]C_1(x) = \frac{2}{x-3}[/tex]

[tex]H(x) = \frac{x^3 - 9x}{x}[/tex]

Solving (a): Expression for V(x)

We have:

[tex]V(x) = [C_1(x) + C_2(x)](H(x))[/tex]

Substitute known values

[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x}{x + 1} + \frac{2}{x-3}] * \frac{x^3 - 9x}{x}[/tex]

Solving (b): Simplify V(x)

We have:

[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x}{x + 1} + \frac{2}{x-3}] * \frac{x^3 - 9x}{x}[/tex]

Solve the expression in bracket

[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x*(x-3) + 2*(x+1)}{(x + 1)(x -3)}] * \frac{x^3 - 9x}{x}[/tex]

[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x^2-3x + 2x+2}{(x + 1)(x -3)}] * \frac{x^3 - 9x}{x}[/tex]

[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x^2-x+2}{(x + 1)(x -3)}] * \frac{x^3 - 9x}{x}[/tex]

Factor out x

[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x^2-x+2}{(x + 1)(x -3)}] * \frac{x(x^2 - 9)}{x}[/tex]

[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x^2-x+2}{(x + 1)(x -3)}] * (x^2 - 9)[/tex]

Express as difference of two squares

[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x^2-x+2}{(x + 1)(x -3)}] * (x- 3)(x + 3)[/tex]

Cancel out x - 3

[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x^2-x+2}{(x + 1)}] *(x + 3)[/tex]

[tex]V(x) = [\frac{(x^2-x+2)(x + 3)}{(x + 1)}][/tex]

Solving (c): V(50), V(100), V(1000)

[tex]V(x) = [\frac{(x^2-x+2)(x + 3)}{(x + 1)}][/tex]

Substitute 50 for x

[tex]V(50) = [\frac{(50^2-50+2)(50 + 3)}{(50 + 1)}][/tex]

[tex]V(50) = \frac{(2452)(53)}{(51)}][/tex]

[tex]V(50) = 2548.17[/tex]

Substitute 100 for x

[tex]V(100) = [\frac{(100^2-100+2)(100 + 3)}{(100 + 1)}][/tex]

[tex]V(100) = \frac{9902)(103)}{(101)}[/tex]

[tex]V(100) = 10098.10[/tex]

Substitute 1000 for x

50 students in a class were asked at the beginning of the week what they did at the weekend. 18 read their books, while 28 watched films, and 7 neither read their books nor watched films. How many students both read their books and watched films?​

Answers

Answer:

so 3 people both read their books and watched films.

Step-by-step explanation:

n(U) = 50

n(A) = 18 ( read books)

n(B) = 28 ( watched films)

n(A U B) with a line at the top = 7

so

Finding n(AUB)

n( A U B) with a line at the top = n(A) + n(B) - n( A n B)

7 = 50-n(A U B)

or, n( A U B) = 50 - 7

so, n(A U B) = 43

Then

n( A U B) = n(A)+n(B)-n(A n B)

43 = 18 + 28 - n( A n B)

or, 43 = 46 - n(A n B)

or, n(A n B) = 46 - 43

so, n(A n B) = 3

Answers

Given:

The function is:

[tex]g(x)=f(x+2)-3[/tex]

To find:

The statement that best compares the graph of g(x) with the graph of f(x).

Solution:

The transformation is defined as

[tex]g(x)=f(x+a)+b[/tex]                .... (i)

Where, a is horizontal shift and b is vertical shift.

If a>0, then the graph shifts a units left and if a<0, then the graph shifts a units right.

If b>0, then the graph shifts b units up and if b<0, then the graph shifts b units down.

We have,

[tex]g(x)=f(x+2)-3[/tex]               ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]a=2[/tex]

[tex]b=-3[/tex]

Therefore, the graph of g(x) is shifted 2 units left and 3 units down.

Hence, the correct option is C.

Find the equation of the line through point (-4,1) and parallel to y= -1/2x-2.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = -\frac{1}{2}x - 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for two lines to be parallel they must have the same slope. In other words the m constant in the line equation needs to match

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

This means for the equation we're trying to find, we already know m. It's just -1/2 since that's the slope of the line it needs to be parallel to.

Next, let's find the constant b. We know the slope, and we know it goes through points (-4, 1), so let's plug this into our equation

[tex]y = -\frac{1}{2}x + b\\1 = - \frac{1}{2}\times{-4} + b\\1 = 2 + b\\b = -1[/tex]

Now that we have both constants, we know the equation of the line.

[tex]y = -\frac{1}{2}x - 1[/tex]

To convince yourself this is correct, let's plot these two lines.

1 calculate the weight of a dog on the earth and on the moon if it has a mass of 28kg

Answers

To solve the problem.

W=m×g

W=28×10

W=280.

The weight of a dog on the surface of earth is 280N.

Answer:

274.68N and 45.36N respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of any object is the mass in kilograms(kg) multiplied by the gravity in meter per square second(m/s^2). The gravity on earth is 9.81m/s^2 and on moon is 1.62m/s^2...so since the gravity varies the weight of the dog will also vary. The wight on earth would be 28kg multiplied by 9.81m/s^2 which would be 274.68N and the weight on moon would be 28kg multiplied by 1.62m/s^2 which would be 45.36N.

Step-by-step explanation:

Guests :

Mother = 1

Aunts = 3

Uncles = 3

Brothers = 4

Male cousin = 1

Female cousin = 5

_________________

Total guests = 17

Since each of the guests have an equal probability of arrival :

Probability that first guest to arrive :

Brother or uncle :

Number of brothers =4

Number of uncles = 3

P(brother or uncle) = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Required outcome (number of brothers + uncles) = (4 + 3) = 7

Total possible outcomes = total guests = 17

P(brother or uncle) = 7 / 17

2.)

P(brother or cousin) :

Required outcome = (number of brothers + cousins) = (4 + 1 + 5) = 10

Total possible outcomes = total guests = 17

P(brother or cousin) = 10/17

3.)

P(brother or mother) ;

Required outcome = (number of brothers + mother) = (4+1) = 5

Total possible outcomes = total guests = 17

P(brother or mother) = required outcome / Total possible outcomes = 5 / 17

As x increases, the rate of change of f exceeds the rate of change of g. D. For every value of x, the rate of change of g exceeds the rate of change of f.

Answers

Answer:

As x increases, the rate of change of g exceeds the rate of change of f.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x) = 90x^2 + 180x + 92[/tex]

[tex]\begin{array}{ccccccc}x & {0} & {1} & {2} & {3} & {4} & {5} & f(x) & {92} & {362} & {812} & {1442} & {2252} & {3242} \ \end{array}[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = 6^x[/tex]

[tex]\begin{array}{ccccccc}x & {0} & {1} & {2} & {3} & {4} & {5} & g(x) & {1} & {6} & {36} & {216} & {1296} & {7776} \ \end{array}[/tex]

Required

Which of the options is true?

A. At [tex]x \approx 4.39[/tex], f(x) has the same rate of change as g(x)

Rate of change is calculated as:

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

For f(x)

[tex]f(x) = 90x^2 + 180x + 92[/tex]

[tex]f(4.39) = 90*4.39^2 + 180*4.39 + 92 = 2616.689[/tex]

So, the rate of change is:

[tex]m = \frac{2616.689}{4.39} = 596.06[/tex]

For g(x)

[tex]g(x) = 6^x[/tex]

[tex]g(4.39) = 6^{4.39} = 2606.66[/tex]

So, the rate of change is:

[tex]m = \frac{2606.66}{4.39} = 593.77[/tex]

The rate of change of both functions are not equal at x = 4.39. Hence, (a) is false.

B. Rate of change of g(x) is greater than f(x) with increment in x

Using the formula in (a), we have:

[tex]\begin{array}{ccccccc}x & {0} & {1} & {2} & {3} & {4} & {5} & f(x) & {92} & {362} & {812} & {1442} & {2252} & {3242} & m &\infty & 362 & 406 & 480 & 563 &648.4\ \end{array}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{array}{ccccccc}x & {0} & {1} & {2} & {3} & {4} & {5} & g(x) & {1} & {6} & {36} & {216} & {1296} & {7776} & m & \infty & 6 & 18 & 72 & 324 & 1555 \ \end{array}[/tex]

From x = 1 to 4, the rate of change of f is greater than the rate of g.

However, from x = 5, the rate of change of g is greater than the rate of f.

This means that (b) is true.

The above table further shows that (c) and (d) are false.

What is the length of the arc of a circle of diameter 8 meters subtended by a central angle of
3pi/4 radians?

Answers

Answer:

9.42 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

diameter = 8 m

radius = 4 m

Length of arc = radius * central angle in radians

= 4 * 3[tex]\pi[/tex] / 4

= 12[tex]\pi[/tex] / 4

= 3[tex]\pi[/tex]

= 66 / 7

= 9.42 m

The length of the arc of a circle of diameter 8 meters subtended by a central angle of 3pi/4 radians is 9.42 meters.

What is the arc of the circle?

The arc period of a circle can be calculated with the radius and relevant perspective using the arc period method.

expalination:

⇒angle= arc/radius

= 3pi/4 radians

diameter = 8 m

radius = 4 m

Length of arc = radius * central angle in radians

⇒4 * 3 / 4

⇒12 / 4 = 3

⇒66 / 7

⇒9.42 m

Hence the arc of a circle is 9.42 m.

A survey showed that out of 600 surgery patients at ABC Medical Center, 8% of them had eye surgery. Find the number of patients that had eye surgery.

Answers

Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

.08x600=48

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

total patients = 600

% of patients had eye surgery = 8%

Number of patients that had eye surgery ?= x

% of pt that had eye surgery =  no. of pt that had surgery/ total number of pt

8/100= x/600

x=(8x600) /100

x= 4800/100

x= 48

Number of patients that had eye surgery were 48

A boat is pulled into a dock by means of a winch 12 feet above the deck of the boat. (a) The winch pulls in rope at a rate of 4 feet per second. Determine the speed of the boat when there is 15 feet of rope out.

Answers

Answer:

the speed of the boat is 6.67 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

height of the winch, h = 12 ft

the rate at which the winch pulls, the rope, = 4 ft/s

This form a right triangle problem;

let the height of the right triangle = h

let the base of the triangle = b (this corresponds to the horizontal displacement of the boat)

let the hypotenuse side = c

c² = b² + h²

[tex]2c\frac{dc}{dt} = 2b\frac{db}{dt} + 2h \frac{dh}{dt}\\\\The \ height \ of \ the \ winch \ is \ not \ changing \\\\2c\frac{dc}{dt} = 2b\frac{db}{dt} + 2h (0)\\\\2c\frac{dc}{dt} = 2b\frac{db}{dt} \\\\c\frac{dc}{dt} = b\frac{db}{dt} ----(*) \\\\when;\\\\the\ hypotenuse \ c = 15 \ ft\\\\the \ the \ the \ height, h = 12 \ ft\\\\the \ base, b \ becomes ;\\\\b^2 = c^2 -h^2\\\\b^2 = 15^2 - 12^2\\\\b^2 = 81\\\\b = \sqrt{81} \\\\b = 9 \ ft\\\\\\from \ the \ equation (*) \ above;\\\\[/tex]

[tex]c\frac{dc}{dt} = b \frac{db}{dt} \\\\dc/dt = 4 \ ft/s, \ \ c = 15 \ ft, \ \ b = 9 \ ft\\\\15 (4) = 9\frac{db}{dt} \\\\60 = 9 \frac{db}{dt} \\\\\frac{db}{dt} = \frac{60}{9} = 6.67 \ ft/s[/tex]

Therefore, the speed of the boat is 6.67 ft/s
