Answer:

Simplify inside the parentheses by dividing coefficients, subtracting the exponents on like bases, and raising the resulting expression to the –3 power. Then, write bases with positive exponents.

Raise the numerator and denominator to the –3 power. Then, using the power of a power property, multiply the exponents. Divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents on like bases, then write with positive exponents.

Answer:

Here, BRX and NJY are two triangles in which,

BR = 30 cm, RX = 40 cm, BX = 60 cm, NJ = 15 cm, JY = 20 cm and NY = 30 cm,

Also, m∠B = m∠N, m∠R = m∠J and m∠X = m∠Y,

By the property of congruence,

$\angle B \cong \angle N$ , $\angle R \cong \angle J$ and $\angle X \cong \angle Y$

Thus, By AAA similarity postulate,

$\triangle BRX\sim \triangle NJY$

Hence, proved.

Robert was able to travel 292.0 miles in 4.000 hours and used 38 liters of gasoline. What was robert's speed in feet per second?

torisob [31]

Distance traveled by Robert = 292 miles

Time taken by Robert to cover this distance = 4 hours.

Now converting miles in feet.

1 mile = 5280 feet

so, 292 feet = 292 * 5280 = 1541760 feet

Now converting 4 hours in seconds.

1 hour = 3600 seconds

so, 4 hours have 3600 * 4 = 14400 seconds.

Now the question says, we have to find the speed in feet per second

$speed = \frac{distance}{time}$

equals,

$\frac{1541760}{14400}$

= 107.067 feet per second

After years of maintaining a steady population of 32,000, the population of a town begins to grow exponentially. After 1 year an

galben [10]

Answer:

$y=32000(1+0.08)^x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential growth function is $y=a(1+r)^x$

Where 'a' is the initial population

r is the rate of growth and x is the time period in years

a steady population of 32,000. So initial population is 32,000

an increase of 8% per year. the rate of increase is 8% that is 0.08

a= 32000 and r= 0.08

Plug in all the values in the general equation

$y=a(1+r)^x$

$y=32000(1+0.08)^x$

$y=32000(1+0.08)^x$

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Option A , should not be rejected

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Sample 1 $n=25$

Standard deviation 1 $\sigma_1=30$

Sample 2 $n=16$

Standard deviation 2 $\sigma_2=20$

Level of confidence $\alpha=95\%=>0.95$

Generally The Hypothesis are given as

$H_0:\sigma_1^2=\sigma_1^2$

$H_1:\sigma_1^2\neq \sigma_1^2$

Generally the equation for test Statistics is mathematically given by

$T=\frac{\sigma_1^2}{\sigma_2^2}$

$T=\frac{30^2}{20^2}$

$T=2.25$

Therefore

Critical Value

$X=(\alpha,df_1)$

$X'=(\alpha,df_2)$

Where

$df=n-1$

Therefore

$X=(0.95,24)$

$X'=(0.95,15)$

From Table

$T_{Critical}=T_x,T_{x'}$

$T_{Critical}=0.41,2.701$

Therefore

$T_x$

Hence,We fail to reject the Null Hypothesis $H_0$

Option A , should not be rejected

Simplify 4a³b² × 3a⁶b⁵

Rasek [7]

Answer:

12a^9b^7

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying variables of the same base, will require you to add the exponents.

4a^3b^2 * 3a^6b^5

4*3 = 12

a^3 * a^6 = a^9

b^2 * b^5 = b^7

12a^9b^7
