The area of undeveloped land in a suburban town is decreasing at a rate of 17.3% annually. In 2016, there were 3,400 acres of un

developed land. If t represents the number of years since 2016, which equation can be used to determine after how many years the town will have 900 acres of undeveloped land remaining?
A)900 = 3,400(1.173)t

B)900 = 3,400(0.827)t

C)3,400 = 900(0.173)t

D)3,400 = 900(0.9827)t

Decreasing by 17.3 percent means every year it's multiplied by 1-0.173 =0.827.

900 = 3400 (0.827^t)

What is the radical form of the expression?<br><br> (5x3y4)37<br> ↡
hram777 [196]

Option 4: \sqrt[7]{125x^9y^{12}} is the right answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is:

(\sqrt{5x^3y^4})^{\frac{3}{7}

In order to convert an exponent into radical form, the power should be in the form of 1/x where x is any number

so,

in case of 3/7, it will be broken down

(\sqrt{5x^3y^4})^{3*\frac{1}{7}}

The 1/7 will be converted into base of radical while 3 will be he exponent

\sqrt[7]{(5x^3y^4)^3}

Multiplying exponents

=\sqrt[7]{5^3x^{3*3}y^{4*3}}\\=\sqrt[7]{125x^9y^{12}}

Hence,

Option 4: \sqrt[7]{125x^9y^{12}} is the right answer

The cost of 5 gallons of ice cream has a standard deviation of 8 dollars with a mean of 29 dollars during the summer. What is th
Feliz [49]

Answer:

97.74% probability that the sample mean would differ from the true mean by less than 1.9 dollars if a sample of 92 5-gallon pails is randomly selected

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central limit theorem:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sample means with size n of at least 30 can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 29, \sigma = 8, n = 92, s = \frac{8}{\sqrt{92}} = 0.8341

What is the probability that the sample mean would differ from the true mean by less than 1.9 dollars if a sample of 92 5-gallon pails is randomly selected?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 29 + 1.9 = 30.9 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 29 - 1.9 = 27.1. So

X = 30.9

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{30.9 - 29}{0.8341}

Z = 2.28

Z = 2.28 has a pvalue of 0.9887

X = 27.1

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{27.1 - 29}{0.8341}

Z = -2.28

Z = -2.28 has a pvalue of 0.0113

0.9887 - 0.0113 = 0.9774

97.74% probability that the sample mean would differ from the true mean by less than 1.9 dollars if a sample of 92 5-gallon pails is randomly selected

Which congruence theorem can be used to prove △MLQ ≅ △NPQ?<br><br> AAS <br> SSS <br> ASA <br> SAS
storchak [24]
Answer: SSS

Proof:
In ΔMLQ and ΔNPQ,
MQ = NQ (given) S
Since Q is the midpoint of LP, by definition, LQ = QP (S)
LM = PN (given) S

∴ ΔMLQ ≡ ΔNPQ (SSS)

Last year Beth's annual salary was $38,350. This year she received a promotion and now earns $46,462 annually. She is paid biwee
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

Quite simple. There are 52 weeks in a year. She gets paid 26 times, every other week.

38,350 / 26 = her salary from last year per check.

46,462 / 26 = her new salary per check

(46,462 - 38,350) / 26 = the difference per week
