Which fraction is not written in simplest form?

A. 35/84
B. 27/40
C. 18/65
D. 24/83

Answer:

a) We can use similar triangles to find PB in terms of a and b. Let x be the length of AD. Then, using the fact that AP = 4PC, we have:

PC = CP = x - b

AP = 4(x - b)

Also, using the fact that DC = (1/4)AB, we have:

AD = x

AB = 4DC = x/4

BC = AB - AD = x/4 - x = -3x/4

Now, consider the similar triangles PBC and ABD:

PB/AB = BC/AD

PB/(x/4) = (-3x/4)/x

PB = -3/4(x/4) = -3x/16

Finally, substituting x = a + b, we have:

PB = -3(a + b)/16

b) Using the same similar triangles as in part (a), we have:

DP/DC = PB/BC

DP/(1/4)AB = PB/(-3x/4)

DP = -3/4(PB)(DC/BC)AB

DP = -3/4(PB)(1/4)/(AB - AD)AB

Substituting the expressions for PB, AB, and AD from part (a), we get:

DP = -3(a + b)/16 * 1/4 / (-3(a + b)/4) * (a + b)/4

DP = -3/16 * 1/4 * 4/(3(a + b)) * (a + b)

DP = -3/16

So, DP = -3/16(a + b)

c) To check if DPB forms a straight line, we need to verify if the slopes of DP and PB are equal. Using the expressions we found in parts (a) and (b), we have:

Slope of PB = Δy/Δx = (-3/16(a+b) - 0)/(0 - (-3(a+b)/16)) = 3/16

Slope of DP = Δy/Δx = (-3(a+b)/16 - (-3/16(a+b)))/(1/4 - 0) = -3(a+b)/4

Since the slopes are not equal, DPB does not form a straight line.

Let x be the number of pounds needed for 6035 square feet.

We can set up a proportion between the pounds of grass seed and the square feet covered:

5 pounds / 355 square feet = x pounds / 6035 square feet

To solve for x, we can cross-multiply and simplify:

5 pounds * 6035 square feet = 355 square feet * x pounds

30175 = 355x

x = 30175 / 355

x ≈ 85.07

Therefore, approximately 85.07 pounds of grass seed are needed for 6035 square feet

The total balance that Sue will have in the two accounts after 5 years can be calculated as follows:

Balance of the first account with simple interest:

FV = P(1 + rt)

FV = $600(1 + 0.075 x 5)

FV = $825

Balance of the second account with compounded interest:

FV = P(1 + r)^n

FV = $900(1 + 0.06)^5

FV = $1,286.87

Total balance = $825 + $1,286.87

Total balance = $2,111.87

The closest answer choice to this amount is F) $2,029.40, which is only off by a small margin. Therefore, the answer is F) $2,029.40.

The correct answer is B. Symmetric property.

The symmetric property states that if a = b, then b = a. In the context of geometry, this property can be used to show that if one side of a figure is congruent to another side, then the second side is also congruent to the first. In the case of the given proof, it is possible that the symmetry of the figure is used to show that opposite sides of the rhombus are congruent.

The reflective property (A) is not typically used to prove that a figure is a rhombus, as it relates to the reflection of a figure across a line. The transitive property (C) and the addition property (D) are also unlikely to be used in this context, as they relate to the properties of equality and addition, respectively, rather than geometric properties of figures.

Answer:

Since only 66 states approve the amendment, it falls short of the required 7/9 majority. Therefore, the constitution will not be amended.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine whether the constitution will be amended, we need to compare the number of states that have approved the amendment to the required number of states needed for approval.

The requirement is that 7/9 of the 84 states must approve the amendment. So, we need to calculate 7/9 of 84 to find out how many states need to approve the amendment:

(7/9) x 84 = 66.67

Rounding up, we see that 66.67 is equivalent to 67 states. This means that in order for the amendment to be approved, at least 67 states must approve it.

Since only 66 states approve the amendment, it falls short of the required 7/9 majority. Therefore, the constitution will not be amended.

Based on this estimate, the insurance company's projected value of this probability insurance policy is negative, implying that the insurance company will lose money on this policy.

Probabilistic theory is a branch of mathematics that calculates the chance of an event or a claim being true. A risk is a number between 0 and 1, where 1 represents certainty and a probability of about 0 shows how likely an event appears to be to occur. Probability is a mathematical term for the likelihood that a certain event will occur. Probabilities can also be expressed as numbers ranging from 0 to 1, or as percentages ranging from 0% to 100%. The proportion of occurrences among equally likely choices that result in a certain event in compared to all possible outcomes.

The total of the potential payouts multiplied by the odds of each payout occurring equals the anticipated value of the insurance policy. In this scenario, the possible compensation is the $1500 insurance payout, and the likelihood of the client being involved in an accident is 3.3%, or 0.033.

Expected value = (Payout if event happens) x (Probability of event happening) - (Annual premium)

($1500) x (0.033) - ($120) = expected value

Value expected = $49.50 - $120

-$70.50 is the expected value.

Based on this estimate, the insurance company's projected value of this insurance policy is negative, implying that the insurance company will lose money on this policy.

The simplification of the polynomial using factor by substitution is: ((3y - 2)⁴ - 1)/(3y - 2)²

Factoring polynomials simply means separating a polynomial into its component polynomials.

Sometimes, in the event that polynomials are particularly complicated, it is usually easiest to substitute a simple term and factor down.

We have the equation:

(3y - 2)² - (3y - 2)⁻²

Let 3y - 2 be denoted by S and as such we have:

S² - S⁻²

= S² - 1/S²

The supplementary angle will be 60°.

What are supplementary angles?

Supplementary angles are angles (only two) whose sum is equal to 180 degrees. In other words, if we add two angles together and the result is 180 degrees, those angles are considered supplementary.

For example, if we have angle A that measures 60 degrees, its supplement angle B will measure 120 degrees (180 - 60 = 120). Angles A and B are supplementary angles.

Supplementary angles can be adjacent, meaning they share a common vertex and side, or they can be non-adjacent. In either case, their sum will always be 180 degrees.

Supplementary angles are commonly used in geometry and trigonometry to solve problems related to angles and triangles.

Now,

Let x = measure of the angle.

Then, the supplement angle is 180 - x.

According to the problem, x is twice less than the supplement angle. In other words, the supplement angle is twice greater than x. We can write this as:

180 - x = 2x

Solving for x, we get:

180 = 3x

x = 60

Therefore, the angle measures 60 degrees.

For the first 40 hours that Mr. Ed works, he earns his regular rate of pay, which is $15.50 per hour. So, his regular pay for the week is:

40 hours x $15.50 per hour = $620

For the additional 5 hours he works, he earns overtime pay at a rate of time-and-a-half, which is 1.5 times his regular pay rate. So, his overtime pay for the week is:

5 hours x $15.50 per hour x 1.5 = $116.25

Therefore, Mr. Ed's total pay for the week in which he works 45 hours is:

$620 (regular pay) + $116.25 (overtime pay) = $736.25.

Thus, we should order two large pizzas, that will cost $22, to serve a group of 12.

Costs in accounting are the dollar amounts paid for materials, labor, services, goods, equipment, and other purchases made for use by a company or even other accounting entity. This sum is listed as the price on invoices and is recorded as an expense of asset cost basis in bookkeeping records.

Solution:

Let x be the quantity of pizzas ordered.

12 x 2 = 24 slices are required because a large pizza contains 8 slices per slice.

As a result, the necessary quantity of pizzas is:

[tex]x\geq 3(x-1) \leq x[/tex]

In order to find the best price, we must reduce the total cost, that is determined by:

C(x) = 15x plus 5(x - 1) (x - 1) - 15

Using the cost function's derivative in relation to x, we may calculate:

C'(x) = 20 - 10[tex]/(x-1)^2[/tex]

Finding the critical points by setting the derivative to zero yields the following results:

20 - 10[tex]/(x-1)^2[/tex] = 0

Simplishing, we obtain:

[tex](x-1)^2[/tex]= 2

By solving for x using square root of the both sides, we arrive at:

x = 1 ± √2

The ideal quantity to order is two pizzas because x has to be an integer.

Probability is a measure of the likelihood that an event will occur. It is a number between 0 and 1, with 0 indicating that the event is impossible and 1 indicating that the event is certain.

To calculate the probability of an event, you divide the number of ways that event can occur by the total number of possible outcomes. For example, if you flip a fair coin, there are two possible outcomes - heads or tails - and each has an equal probability of 0.5 (or 50%) of occurring.

We can set up an equation as follows:

S = m^2 + 6m + 8 = 80

Subtracting 80 from both sides, we get:

m^2 + 6m - 72 = 0

We can factor this quadratic equation as:

(m + 12)(m - 6) = 0

This gives us two possible solutions:

m + 12 = 0 or m - 6 = 0

Solving for m in each case, we get:

m = -12 or m = 6

Null Hypothesis (H0): There is no significant difference in life span for people in the two towns.

Alternative Hypothesis (H1): There is a significant difference in life span for people in the two towns.

Answer:

The null and alternative hypotheses that should be used to test this claim are:

Null hypothesis: There is no significant difference in lifespan for people in the two towns. Symbolically, this can be represented as H0: μ1 = μ2, where μ1 and μ2 are the population mean lifespans of Town A and Town B, respectively.

Alternative hypothesis: There is a significant difference in lifespan for people in the two towns. Symbolically, this can be represented as Ha: μ1 ≠ μ2.

To test this claim, the researcher can conduct a two-sample t-test using the data collected from the two towns. The test statistic can be calculated as:

t = (x1 - x2) / (s1^2/n1 + s2^2/n2)^0.5

where x1 and x2 are the sample mean lifespans of Town A and Town B, respectively, s1 and s2 are the sample standard deviations of Town A and Town B, respectively, and n1 and n2 are the sample sizes of Town A and Town B, respectively.

Using the given data, the test statistic can be calculated as:

t = (78.5 - 74.4) / (11.2^2/20 + 12.3^2/20)^0.5 = 1.02

At a significance level of 0.05 with 38 degrees of freedom (df = n1 + n2 - 2), the critical value for a two-tailed test is ±2.024. Since the calculated t-value (1.02) falls within the acceptance region (-2.024 < t < 2.024), the null hypothesis cannot be rejected. Therefore, we do not have enough evidence to conclude that there is a significant difference in lifespan for people in the two towns.

a. Since the half-life of the isotope is 8 hours, we know that the decay rate is exponential and we can use the formula:

A(t) = A0 * (1/2)^(t/8)

where A0 is the initial amount of the substance, t is the time elapsed, and A(t) is the amount of substance remaining after t hours.

Substituting the given values, we get:

A(t) = 7 * (1/2)^(t/8)

b. To find the rate at which the substance is decaying, we need to take the derivative of A(t) with respect to t:

A'(t) = -7/8 * (1/2)^(t/8) * ln(1/2)

Simplifying, we get:

A'(t) = -ln(2) * (7/8) * (1/2)^(t/8)

c. To find the rate of decay at 14 hours, we can plug in t=14 into the equation we found in part b:

A'(14) = -ln(2) * (7/8) * (1/2)^(14/8) ≈ -0.4346 grams per hour (rounded to four decimal places)
