Answer:

The option 2  

b > -6 or b < 6 ⇒ |b| < 6    

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the compound inequality

we have to choose the inequality which is equivalent to the absolute value inequality.

An absolute value inequality

It is an inequality that has an absolute value sign with a variable inside.

In other words, for any real numbers x and y,

if | x | < y , then a < b and a > -b

Option 1: -6 > b and b > 6

Not possible as b can not be greater than 6 if it is less than -6

⇒ No solution exits

Option 2: b > -6 or b < 6

⇒ |b| < 6

which is absolute inequality.

Option 3: -6 < b and b > 6

This gives b is greater than 6 not an absolute inequality.

Option 4: b < –6 or b > 6

Not possible as b can not be greater than 6 if it is less than -6

⇒ No solution exits

Hence, option 2 is correct.

➷ a/sinA = c/sinC

Substitute in the values:

37/sin(42) = c/sin(41.5)

Multiply both sides by sin(41.5)

37/sin(42) x sin(41.5) = c

Solve:

c = 36.63999457

The correct answer would be C. 36.64

You have a budget of $48. You want to buy fruit and granola bars. Fruit costs $4 per pound, and the granola bars are $1 each. Yo
zzz [600]

1)Define the variables you will use in your model.

Let

x------->total pounds of the fruit

y-------> the total number of granola bars

TC----> total cost

Tf------> total cost of the fruit

Tg----> total cost of the granola bars

2) Write an inequality representing the total cost of your purchase. (3 points)

a. Each pound of fruit costs $4. Write an expression that shows the total cost of the fruit. Use the variable you identified in question 1

Tf=4*x

b. Each granola bar costs $1. Write an expression that shows the total cost of the granola bars. Use the variable you identified in question 1.

Tg=1*y--------> Tg=y

c. Combine the expressions from parts a and b to write an expression for the total cost. Then use this expression to write an inequality that compares the total cost with the amount you have to spend.

TC=Tf+Tg

TC=4*x+y

inequality-------> 4x+y \leq 48

3. Write the inequality that models the number of granola bars you need to buy.

You need at least 10 granola bars

so

y\geq 10

4. Describe in words what each of your inequalities means

inequality 1

4x+y \leq 48

the total cost of fruits plus the total cost of granola bars must be less than or equal to 48 dollars

inequality 2

y\geq 10

5. Graph your system of inequalities.

using a graph tool

see the attached figure

6. Identify one point on the graph that represents a viable solution to the problem, and then identify one point that does not represent a viable solution.

Let

A-------> one point on the graph that represents a viable solution

B-------> one point on the graph that does not represent a viable solution

A(4,20)

x=4-------> total pounds of the fruit

y=20------> the total number of granola bars

check point A

substitute the values of x and y in the inequality 1

4x+y \leq 48

4*4+20\leq 48\\ 36\leq 48-------> is ok

substitute the values of x and y in the inequality 2

y\geq 10

20\geq 10--------> is ok

the point A represents a viable solution, because satisfies both inequalities

B(10,30)

x=10-------> total pounds of the fruit

y=30------> the total number of granola bars

check point B

substitute the values of x and y in the inequality 1

4x+y \leq 48

4*10+30\leq 48\\ 70\leq 48-------> is not a viable solution

substitute the values of x and y in the inequality 2

y\geq 10

30\geq 10--------> is ok

the point B is not a viable solution because does not satisfy the inequality 1

Art [367]

Answer: 0.813

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event describes the number of residents believed that the amount of violent television programming had increased over the past 10 years.

& B be the event describes the number of residents believed that the amount of violent television programming had decreased over the past 10 years.

Given : n(A)=721   ;  n(B)=454  ;  n(A∩B)=362

We know that ,

n(A\cup B)=n(A)+n(B)-n(A\cap B)

i.e. n(A\cup B)=721+454-362=813

Also, the total number of U.S. residents surveyed n(S)= 1,000

Then, the  proportion of the 1,000 U.S. residents believed that either the amount of violent programming had increased or the overall quality of programming had decreased over the past 10 years will be :-

P(A\cup B)=\dfrac{n(A\cup B)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{813}{1000}=0.813

Hence, the required answer = 0.813
