Answers

Answer 1

The discontinuity of our given function is at point (-6, -7).

The zero of our given function is, (1, 0).

What is discontinuity and zero of the function?

A discontinuous function is a graph function that is not connected to any other functions. If the left-hand limit of f(x) and the right-hand limit of f(x) both exist but are not equal, then the function f(x) is said to have a discontinuity of the first kind at x = a.

The x-intercept(s) of the function's graph represent the real zero of the function.

Consider the given function,

\(f(x) = \frac{x^2+5x-6}{x+6}\)

We know that a function is discontinuous, when its denominator is equal to zero.

To find the discontinuity for our given function, we will equate denominator to 0 as:

x + 6 = 0

    x = -6

Now simplify the given function.

\(f(x) = \frac{x^2+5x - 6}{x+6}\\ f(x) = \frac{x^2 +6x - x - 6}{x+6}\\ f(x) = \frac{x(x+6)-1(x+6)}{x+6}\\ f(x) = \frac{(x-1)(x+6)}{x+6} \\f(x) = x-1\)

Take  y = x - 1

Since the denominator term is cancelled out, so our give function has a removable discontinuity.

Now, we will find value of y by substituting  x = -6

⇒ y = -6 - 1

   y = -7

Therefore, the discontinuity of our given function is at point (-6, -7).

Now, we will find zero of our given function by substituting  f(x) = 0,as zero of the function is the point, where graph intersects x-axis and value of y is 0 at x-axis:

⇒  0 = x - 1

x - 1 = 0

    x = 1

Therefore, the zero of our given function is, (1, 0).

Last season Emily soccer team how to win loss ratio of 9 to 12 and Grant soccer team how to win loss ratio of 10 to 15 who’s team has a higher ratio of wins to losses use complete sentences to explain your reasoning

Answers

The Emily soccer team has the higher ratio of wins to losses.

What is Ratio?

Ratio is defined as the relationship between two quantities where it tells how much one quantity is contained in the other.

The ratio of a and b is denoted as a : b.

Given that,

Ratio of win to loss of Emily soccer team = 9 : 12

Ratio of win to loss of Grant soccer team = 10 : 15

9 : 12 = 9 / 12 = (9 × 5) / (12 × 5) = 45 / 60

10 : 15 = 10 / 15 = (10 × 4) / (15 × 4) = 40 / 60

If 60 games are losses, then 45 games are wins for Emily soccer team.

If 60 games are losses, then 40 games are wins for Grant soccer team.

Higher ratio is for Emily soccer team.

Hence higher ratio of wins to losses is for Emily soccer team.

One rectangle is "framed" within another. Find the area of the shaded region if the "frame" is 3 units

Answers

The area of the shaded region, with a frame of 3 units wide, is 264 square units. The inner rectangle is 6x4 units, and the outer rectangle is 18x16 units.

To solve the given problem, we have to find the area of the shaded region if the frame is 3 units wide. If the frame is 3 units wide, then the dimensions of the inner rectangle (the shaded region) will be (12 - 6) × (10 - 6) which simplifies to 6 × 4.

Therefore, we can say that the inner rectangle has a length of 6 units and a width of 4 units.The dimensions of the outer rectangle are (12 + 3 + 3) × (10 + 3 + 3) which simplifies to 18 × 16. Therefore, we can say that the outer rectangle has a length of 18 units and a width of 16 units.

The area of the shaded region can be obtained by subtracting the area of the inner rectangle from the area of the outer rectangle. Therefore, the Area of the outer rectangle = length × width= 18 × 16 = 288 square units

Area of the inner rectangle = length × width= 6 × 4 = 24 square units

Area of the shaded region = Area of the outer rectangle - Area of the inner rectangle = 288 - 24= 264 square units

Therefore, the area of the shaded region is 264 square units.

Answers

The coordinates of point B are (-3, 17).

The given equation is M = I₁ + I₂ = 31 + 32.

Now let's substitute in our given values:

(-2, 2) = ((-5 + x₂) / 2, (-5 + 2 + y₂) / 2)

We will now set up two equations to solve for our two unknowns, x₂ and y₂:

Equation 1: (-5 + x₂) / 2 = -4

The length of a rectangular field is represented by the expression 14x-3x^2+2y . The width of the field is represented by the expression 5x-7x^2+7y . How much greater is the length of the field than the width?

Answers

The length of the field is greater than the width by the expression \((14x - 3x^2 + 2y) - (5x - 7x^2 + 7y).\)

1. The length of the field is represented by the expression \(14x - 3x^2 + 2y.\)

2. The width of the field is represented by the expression \(5x - 7x^2 + 7y\).

3. To find the difference between the length and width, we subtract the width from the length: (\(14x - 3x^2 + 2y) - (5x - 7x^2 + 7y\)).

4. Simplifying the expression, we remove the parentheses: \(14x - 3x^2 + 2y - 5x + 7x^2 - 7y.\)

5. Combining like terms, we group the \(x^2\) terms together and the x terms together: \(-3x^2 + 7x^2 + 14x - 5x + 2y - 7y.\)

6. Simplifying further, we add the coefficients of like terms:\((7x^2 - 3x^2) + (14x - 5x) + (2y - 7y).\)

7. The simplified expression becomes: \(4x^2 + 9x - 5y.\)

8. Therefore, the length of the field is greater than the width by the expression \(4x^2 + 9x - 5y.\)

Answers

Mark needs a ladder that is 13 feet long in order to reach the second floor windows of the building.

What is length?

Length is a measurement of distance or space from one point to another. It is typically measured in units such as meters, feet, or inches. Length is a scalar quantity, meaning it has magnitude but no direction. Length is a fundamental property of physical objects and can be used to measure the size of an object or the distance between two points.

To properly calculate the ladder length Mark needs, we must use the Pythagorean Theorem. The Theorem states that for the triangle formed by the ladder and the building, the square of the hypotenuse (the ladder length) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. Therefore, the ladder length Mark needs is equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of 5 feet and 12 feet, which is equal to the square root of 169, or 13 feet. Therefore, Mark needs a ladder that is 13 feet long in order to reach the second floor windows of the building.

The transverse axis of a hyperbola equals the difference between the distances from any point on the hyperbola to each focus. Which is expressed in answer "C" in your list of possible answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

In fact, the definition of hyperbola is that of all point on the plane whose difference between their distance to each focus is a constant.

That constant can be determined in particular when one considers the distance to the actual vertex of the hyperbola (which is on the transverse axis) and whose distance to one of the focii is equal to the transverse axis plus the distance from the vertex to the focus, and from which needs to be subtracted the distance from the vertex to the focus, resulting then in exactly the transverse axis.

Enter you answer In the box

Answers

The given values into the equation AE = 2a + 10. Therefore, The value of AE is 3 - x.

To find the value of AE, we can substitute the given values into the equation AE = 2a + 10.

Given:

AB = 10

AE = 2a + 10

ED = x + 3

CD = 4

Since AB is a segment on the line, it can be divided into AE and ED. Therefore, AB = AE + ED.

We know that AB = 10 and CD = 4. So, if we subtract CD from AB, we get AE + ED = 10 - 4.

AE + ED = 6.

Now, we can substitute the value of ED, which is x + 3, into the equation: AE + x + 3 = 6.

To find the value of AE, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation. Let's subtract x and 3 from both sides:

AE = 6 - x - 3.

Simplifying further, we get;

AE = 3 - x.

Therefore, the value of AE is 3 - x.

A manufacturer must test that his bolts are 4.00 cm long when they come off the assembly line. He must recalibrate his machines if the bolts are too long or too short. After sampling 121 randomly selected bolts off the assembly line, he calculates the sample mean to be 4.21 cm. He knows that the population standard deviation is 0.83 cm. Assuming a level of significance of 0.02, is there sufficient evidence to show that the manufacturer needs to recalibrate the machines? Step 2 of 3: Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.​

Answers

The sample mean of 4.21 cm is significantly different from the specified target mean of 4.00 cm.

Step 1: State the hypotheses.

- Null Hypothesis (H₀): The mean length of the bolts is 4.00 cm (μ = 4.00).

- Alternative Hypothesis (H₁): The mean length of the bolts is not equal to 4.00 cm (μ ≠ 4.00).

Step 2: Compute the value of the test statistic.

To compute the test statistic, we will use the z-test since the population standard deviation (σ) is known, and the sample size (n) is large (n = 121).

The formula for the z-test statistic is:

z = (X- μ) / (σ / √n)

Where:

X is the sample mean (4.21 cm),

μ is the population mean (4.00 cm),

σ is the population standard deviation (0.83 cm), and

n is the sample size (121).

Plugging in the values, we get:

z = (4.21 - 4.00) / (0.83 / √121)

z = 0.21 / (0.83 / 11)

z = 0.21 / 0.0753

z ≈ 2.79 (rounded to two decimal places)

Step 3: Determine the critical value and make a decision.

With a level of significance of 0.02, we perform a two-tailed test. Since we want to determine if the mean length of the bolts is different from 4.00 cm, we will reject the null hypothesis if the test statistic falls in either tail beyond the critical values.

For a significance level of 0.02, the critical value is approximately ±2.58 (obtained from the z-table).

Since the calculated test statistic (2.79) is greater than the critical value (2.58), we reject the null hypothesis.

Conclusion:

Based on the computed test statistic, there is sufficient evidence to show that the manufacturer needs to recalibrate the machines. The sample mean of 4.21 cm is significantly different from the specified target mean of 4.00 cm, indicating that the machine's output is not meeting the desired length. The manufacturer should take action to recalibrate the machines to ensure the bolts meet the required length of 4.00 cm.
