Specialized license plates have seven permissible characters: letters, numbers, a dash (-)

and the ampersand (&). How many custom plates are available?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Total = 38^7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Plate\ Number = 7\ characters[/tex]

[tex]Letters \to 26[/tex] [tex]\to [A- Z][/tex]

[tex]Numbers \to 10[/tex] [tex]\to [0 - 9][/tex]

[tex]Dash \to 1[/tex] [tex]\to [ - ][/tex]

[tex]Ampersand \to 1[/tex] [tex]\to [\&][/tex]

Required

Number of possible characters

Since the order and ways of selecting each character is not selected, then it means that any of the permissible character can occupy any of the 7 available spaces, with repetition.

The total possible characters (n) is:

[tex]n = 26 +10 + 1 + 1[/tex]

[tex]n = 38[/tex]

Any of the 38 characters can occupy any of the 7 spaces.

Hence, the total number of character is:

[tex]Total = n^7[/tex]

[tex]Total = 38^7[/tex]

how do i find parabola from a figure ( process )​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of a quadratic equation in two variables (y = ax^2 + bx + c ) is called a parabola. The following graphs are two typical parabolas their x-intercepts are marked by red dots, their y-intercepts are marked by a pink dot, and the vertex of each parabola is marked by a green dot: (Given in attachment for diagram)

We say that the first parabola opens upwards (is a U shape) and the second parabola opens downwards (is an upside down U shape). In order to graph a parabola we need to find its intercepts, vertex, and which way it opens.

 

 

Given y = ax^2 + bx + c , we have to go through the following steps to find the points and shape of any parabola:

Label a, b, and c.

Decide the direction of the paraola:

If a > 0 (positive) then the parabola opens upward.

If a < 0 (negative) then the parabola opens downward.

 

 

Find the x-intercepts:

Notice that the x-intercepts of any graph are points on the x-axis and therefore have y-coordinate 0. We can find these points by plugging 0 in for y and solving the resulting quadratic equation (0 = ax^2 + bx + c). If the equation factors we can find the points easily, but we may have to use the quadratic formula in some cases. If the solutions are imaginary, that means that the parabola has no x-intercepts (is strictly above or below the x-axis and never crosses it). If the solutions are real, but irrational (radicals) then we need to approximate their values and plot them.

Find the y-intercept:

The y-intercept of any graph is a point on the y-axis and therefore has x-coordinate 0. We can use this fact to find the y-intercepts by simply plugging 0 for x in the original equation and simplifying. Notice that if we plug in 0 for x we get: y = a(0)2 + b(0) + c or y = c. So the y-intercept of any parabola is always at (0,c).

 

 

Find the vertex (h,k):

To find the x-coordinate for the vertex we use the following formula:

To find the y-coordinate for the vertex we plug in h in the original equation:

k = a(h)2 + b(h) + c

Plot the points and graph the parabola

Construct a spreadsheet to answer the following questions.

Complete question :

The time married men with children spend on child care averages 6.4 hours per week (Time, March 12, 2012). You belong to a professional group on family practices that would like to do its own study to determine if the time married men in your area spend on child care per week differs from the reported mean of 6.4 hours per week. A sample of 40 married couples are surveyed to collect the hours per week the husband spends on child care. The sample mean is 7.0 hours per week, and the sample standard deviation is 2.4276 hours per week. Use Excel to answer the following questions. a. What are the hypotheses if your group would like to determine if the population mean number of hours married men are spending in child care differs from the mean reported by Time in your area? b. What is the test statistics of the population mean? c. Using a .05 level of significance, what are the critical values? d. What is your conclusion?

Answer:

H0 : μ = 6.4

H1 : μ ≠ 6.4

Test statistic = - 1.563

Critical value = ±2.023

Fail to reject the null ; there is no significant evidence to support the claim that mean number of hours spent differs

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : μ = 6.4

H1 : μ ≠ 6.4

Test statistic, Z :

(Xbar - μ) / (s/√n)

(6.4 - 7) / (2.4276/√40)

-0.6 / 0.3838372

T= -1.563

α = 0.05 ; df = n - 1 = 40 - 1 = 39

Critical value(0.05, 39) = ±2.023

|T| > +Tcritical ; Reject the Null

Since |T| < +Tcritical ; then we fail to reject the Null, hence, we conclude that there is no significant evidence to support the claim that mean number of hours spent by married men in child care differs.

Whats the Diameter? I really need help understanding this

Answers

Answer:

1.8 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

1) Determine the radius of the base

[tex]V=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2h[/tex] where r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the cone

Plug in the known values (h=4.2, V=3.6)

[tex]3.6=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2(4.2)[/tex]

Isolate r; divide both sides by 4.2

[tex]\frac{3.6}{4.2} =\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2\\\frac{6}{7} =\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 3

[tex]\frac{6}{7}*3 =\pi r^2\\\frac{18}{7}=\pi r^2[/tex]

Divide both sides by π

[tex]\frac{18}{7\pi }=r^2[/tex]

Take the square root of both sides

[tex]\sqrt{\frac{18}{7\pi }} =r[/tex]

2) Determine the diameter

Now that we have the radius, to find the diameter, multiply r by 2:

[tex]d=\sqrt{\frac{18}{7\pi }}*2\\d=1.8[/tex]

Therefore, the diameter is 1.8 in. when rounded to the nearest tenth.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

1.8 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Answers

Answer:

m<3=84

m<4=96

Step-by-step explanation:

180-43-41=96

180-96=84

The measure of ∠3 is 96° and measure of ∠4 is 64°.

What is Triangle?

A triangle is a three sided polygon , which has three vertices and three angles with sum 180 degree.

Given that;

In triangle,

Measure of first angle (m ∠1 ) = 43°

Measure of second angle (m ∠2) = 41°

Let measure of ∠4 = x degree

Now, Sum of all angles in a triangle be 180 degree.

So, We can formulate;

m∠1 + m∠2 + m∠3 = 180°

43° + 41° + x = 180°

84° + x = 180°

x = 180° - 84°

x = 96°

So, measure of ∠3 = 96°

Since, The measure of ∠3 and measure of ∠4 are supplementary angles.

Hence, We get;

m ∠3 + m ∠4 = 180°

96° + m ∠4 = 180°

m ∠4 = 180° - 96°

m ∠4 = 64°

Thus, The measure of ∠3 is 96° and measure of ∠4 is 64°.
