Which system of equations can be used to find the roots of the equation 12 x 3-5x=2 x 2+x+6

kirill [66]

Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

The system of equation becomes

$y=12x^3-5x\\\\ y=2x^2+x+6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Equation $12x^3-5x=2x^2+x+6$

We have to construct a system of equations that can be used to find the roots of the equation $12x^3-5x=2x^2+x+6$

Consider the given equation $12x^3-5x=2x^2+x+6$

To construct a system of equation put both sides of the given equation equal to a same variable.

Let the variable be "y", Then the equation $12x^3-5x=2x^2+x+6$

becomes,

$12x^3-5x=y=2x^2+x+6$

Thus, The system of equation becomes

$y=12x^3-5x\\\\ y=2x^2+x+6$

Option (a) is correct.

blagie [28]

Answer:

A 90% confidence interval of the true mean is [$119.86, $123.34].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an irate student complained that the cost of textbooks was too high. He randomly surveyed 36 other students and found that the mean amount of money spent on textbooks was $121.60.

Also, the standard deviation of the population was $6.36.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for finding the confidence interval for the population mean is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean amount of money spent on textbooks = $121.60

$\sigma$ = population standard deviation = $6.36

n = sample of students = 36

$\mu$ = population mean

Here for constructing a 90% confidence interval we have used One-sample z-test statistics as we know about population standard deviation.

So, 95% confidence interval for the population mean, $\mu$ is ;

P(-1.645 < N(0,1) < 1.645) = 0.90 {As the critical value of z at 5% level

of significance are -1.645 & 1.645}

P(-1.645 < $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < 1.645) = 0.90

P( $-1.645 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < ${\bar X-\mu}$ < $1.645 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.90

P( $\bar X-1.645 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < $\mu$ < $\bar X+1.645 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.90

90% confidence interval for $\mu$ = [ $\bar X-1.645 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ , $\bar X+1.645 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ]

= [ $121.60-1.645 \times {\frac{6.36}{\sqrt{36} } }$ , $121.60+1.645 \times {\frac{6.36}{\sqrt{36} } }$ ]

= [$119.86, $123.34]

Therefore, a 90% confidence interval of the true mean is [$119.86, $123.34].

points P and Q lie 240 m apart in line with and on opposite sides of a communications tower. the angles of elevation to the top

Leona [35]

Answer:

The height of the tower is 130.5m

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, we are given the following values:

The angles of elevation to the top of the tower from P = 50°

The angles of elevation to the top of the tower from Q = 45°

The angles of elevation to the top of the tower from P = 50°

Hence,cot P = 1/ tan(50°)

The angles of elevation to the top of the tower from Q = 45°

Hence, tan 45° = 1

In the question,we are told Points P and Q lie 240 m apart in line with and on opposite sides of a communications tower.

Therefore,

PQ = height of the tower( tan Q + 1/tan P)

240m = height of the tower( tan 45° + 1/ tan 50°)

240m = h(1 + 1/tan 50°)

h = (240 m)/(1 + 1/tan (50°))

h = 130.49863962 meters

Therefore, the height of the tower to the nearest tenth of a meter is 130.5 meters(m)

A small manufacturer constructs refrigerators. The fixed monthly cost is $200,000, and it costs $450 to produce one refrigerator

kaheart [24]

Answer: Horizontal asymptote of c(x) is 450.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Cost to produce one refrigerator = $450

Fixed monthly cost = $200,000

So, Average cost function to produce x refrigerators is given by

$c(x)=\dfrac{200000+450x}{x}$

Horizontal asymptote of c(x) would be

$\dfrac{450x}{x}\\\\=450$

Hence, Horizontal asymptote of c(x) is 450.
