script 1 7 7 Superscript 0 1 7 Superscript negative 1 StartFraction 1 Over 7 EndFraction Ramesh says that based on the pattern 7 Superscript negative 5 = negative 16,807. Which statement explains whether Ramesh is correct? Ramesh is correct because 7 Superscript negative 5 is equivalent to Negative 7 times (negative 7) times (negative 7) times (negative 7) times (negative 7), which has the same value as Negative 16,807. Ramesh is correct because as the exponents decrease, the previous value is divided by 7, so 7 Superscript negative 5 = 1 divided by 7 divided by 7 divided by 7 divided by 7 divided by 7 = negative 16,807. Ramesh is not correct because 7 Superscript negative 5 is equivalent to StartFraction 1 Over 7 Superscript 5 EndFraction, which has the same value as StartFraction 1 Over 7 Superscript 4 EndFraction divided by 7 = StartFraction 1 Over 7 cubed EndFraction = StartFraction 1 Over 343 EndFraction.

Three snack bars contain 1/5, 0.22, and 19% of their calories from fat. Which snack bar contains the least amount of calories fr
BabaBlast [244]
Converting all values to decimal, we have
1/5 = 0.2
19% - 19/100 = 0.19

Therefore the snack that contains 19% has the least amount of calories from fat.

−12x−5y=40 12x−11y=88 ​ x= y=
Nezavi [6.7K]
Add the two equations and use the elimination method. The x term will "cancel out" to be able to solve for the y term.

STEP 1
−12x−5y=40
12x−11y=88 ​
x terms "cancels out"; add y terms

-16y= 128
divide both sides by -16

y= -8


STEP 2
substitute y value into either original equation

12x−11y=88 ​

12x - 11(-8)= 88

12x + 88= 88
subtract 88 from both sides

12x= 0
divide both sides by 12; 0 divided by any number is 0

x= 0


ANSWER: x= 0; y= -8

Hope this helps! :)

Find the local maximum and minimum values and saddle point(s) of the function. If you have three-dimensional graphing software,
grandymaker [24]

Solution:

There is no saddle point (DNE). However, there is local maximum at (1, 1/2) for the given function.

Explanation:

we have function of two variables f(x,y)= 9-2x+4y-x^2-4y^2

we will find the values by partial derivative with respect to x,y,xy

f_{x}= -2 -2x

f_{y}= 4 -8y

to find the saddle point we should first find the critical points so equate

-2 -2x=0 and   4 -8y=0

we get x= 1  and y =1/2 so, critical points are (1,1/2)

to find local maximum or minimum we have to find f_{xx},  f_{yy} and f_{xy}

formula is f_{xx} *f_{yy} - f^{2_{xy} } =0

f_{xx} = -2

f_{yy} = -8

f^{2_{xy} } =0

putting values in formula

(-2)*(-8) -0 =16 > 0, and f_{xx}< 0  and f_{yy}<0

so, here we have local maximum

we have no saddle point for this function by using the same formula we used to find extrema.

The Census Bureau's Current Population Survey shows that 28% of individuals, ages 25 and older, have completed four years of col
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

19.35% probability that five will have completed four years of college

Step-by-step explanation:

For each individual chosen, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have completed fourr years of college, or they have not. The probability of an adult completing four years of college is independent of any other adult. So 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.

28% of individuals

This means that p = 0.25

For a sample of 15 individuals, ages 25 and older, what is the probability that five will have completed four years of college?

This is P(X = 5) when n = 15. So

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

P(X = 5) = C_{15,5}.(0.28)^{5}.(0.72)^{10} = 0.1935

19.35% probability that five will have completed four years of college

Rachel has $25000 worth of property damage insurance. She causes $32000 worth of damage to a sports car in an accident. How much
Phoenix [80]
If you would like to know how much of the damages will the insurance company have to pay, you can calculate this using the following steps:

x% of $32000 is $25000
x% * 32000 = 25000
x/100 * 32000 = 25000
x * 320 = 25000
x = 25000 / 320
x = 78.125%

The insurance company will have to pay 78.125% of the damages.
