Answer:

The value of the car will be 6100 dollars in 8.8 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Present value of car = $23900

The value of the car depreciates at 14.25% per year

Let x be no. of years in which  the value of the car becomes 6100 dollars

Formula: N(t)=N_0(1-r)^t

Substitute the values :

6100=23900(1-\frac{14.25}{100})^x\\\frac{6100}{23900}=(1-\frac{14.25}{100})^x\\x=8.8

Hence the value of the car will be 6100 dollars in 8.8 years

An insurance company collected data from a class of high school sophomores on whether or not they have a cell phone and whether
NeX [460]

Answer:

C. Those who have a car tend to have a cell phone.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relative frequency for a data set n is calculated by dividing each frequency x_i by n.

We have a table that relates the use of cars and cell phones.

First, we take from the table the population that has a car.

n = 18

Then, of the students who have a car, 12 have a cell phone and 6 do not have a cell phone.

Then we calculate the relative frequencies f_{x_i} for those who have a cell phone and those who do not.

______________________________________________

Relative frequency   Students with car  n = 18.

-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------

C<em>ell phone     No cell phone      Total n</em>

 12/18                    6/18                     18

_______________________________________________

_______________________________________________

Relative frequency   Students with car  n = 18.

-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------

C<em>ell phone     No cell phone      Total n</em>

  0.666              0.333                   18

________________________________________________

Most students who have a car also have a cell phone.

Now we calculate the relative frequency for students who do not have a car.

_______________________________________________

Relative frequency  Students without a car  n = 7

-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------

<em>Cell phone       No cell phone             Total  n</em>

 2/7                     5/7                          7

_______________________________________________  

_______________________________________________

Relative frequency  Students without a car  n = 7

-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------

<em>Cell phone</em>      <em>  No</em> <em>cell phone           Total  n</em>

 0.286                 0.714                              7

_______________________________________________

Most students who do not have a car do not have a cell phone either.

<em>Then these data suggest that. Those who have a car tend to have a cell phone.</em>

Hey ^-^ can someone please help me with this problem:
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:   8 (Pi - sqrt(3))

Discussion:

The area of the shaded region is that of the semicircle minus the area of the triangle..

Area of semicircle = 1/2 * Pi * R^2        

   Where R^2 is the square of the radius of the circle. In our case, R ( = OC)

    = 4 so the semicircle area is

   (1/2) * Pi * (4^2) = (1/2) * Pi * 16 = 8 Pi

Area of triangle.

  First of all, angle ACB is a right angle ( i.e. 90 degrees).

    * This is the Theorem of Thales from elementary Plane Geometry. *

 so by Pythagoras

   AC^2 + BC^2 = AB^2

But CB = 4 (given) and AB = 4*2 = 8 ( the diameter is twice the radius).

Substituting these in Pythagoras gives

   AC^2 + 4^2 = 8^2 or

   AC^2 = 8^2 - 4^2- = 64 - 16 = 48

   Hence AC = sqrt(48) = sqrt (16*3) = 4 * sqrt(3)

We are almost done! The area of the triangle is given by

  (1/2) b * h = (1/2)  BC * AC = (1/2) 4 * (4 * sqrt(3)) =  8 sqrt(3)

We conclude the area area of the shaded part is

 8 PI - 8 sqrt(3)   = 8 (Pi - sqrt(3))

Note that sqrt(3) is approx  1.7 so (PI - sqrt(3)) is a positive number, as it better well be!

Based on the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, how many complex roots does each of the following equations have? Write your answer
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

2, 2, 4, 6, 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Fundamental Theorem of Algebra states that 'An 'n' degree polynomial will have n number of real roots'.

1. The polynomial is given by x(x^2-4)(x^2+16) = 0

So, on simplifying we get that, x(x+2)(x-2)(x^2+16)=0.

Since, degree of polynomial is 5, it will have 5 roots.

This gives us that the roots of the equation are x = 0, -2, 2, 4i and -4i

So, the number of complex roots are 2.

2. The polynomial is given by (x^2+4)(x+5)^2 = 0

Since, degree of polynomial is 4, it will have 4 roots.

Equating them both by zero, (x^2+4)= 0 and  (x+5)^2=0 gives that the roots of the polynomial are x = 2i, -2i, -5, -5.

So, the number of complex roots are 2.

3. The polynomial is given by x^6-4x^5-24x^2+10x-3=0

Since, degree of polynomial is 6, it will have 6 roots.

On simplifying, we get that the real roots of the polynomial are x = -1.75 and x = 4.28.

So, the number of complex roots are 6-2 = 4.

4. The polynomial is given by x^7+128=0

Since, degree of polynomial is 7, it will have 7 roots.

On simplifying, we get that the only real root of the polynomial is x = -2.

So, the number of complex roots are 7-1 = 6.

5. The polynomial is given by (x^3+9)(x^2-4)=0

Since, degree of polynomial is 5, it will have 5 roots.

Simplifying the equation gives (x+2)(x-2)(x+\sqrt[3]{9})(x^2-\sqrt[3]{9x}+9^{\frac{2}{3}})=0

Equating each to 0, we get the real roots of the polynomial is x=-3^{\frac{2}{3}}

So, the number of complex roots are 5-1 = 4
