Why is there a letter also on Mathematics?

I mean, there is a letter in English...

I don't know why there is a letter like 2x + 19 and x + 23.

It's really frustrating that there's a letter in Mathematics

They can just do "3*4" instead of "x*4 when x=3"

I know... I know... It's a silly question.

Answer:

Not silly, i understand but "x" is supposed to be a subsitute for a number after the many equations youll be learning in algebra. x can be anything, it isnt set to anykind of specifac number but rather an output of an equation. It is fustrating but i reccomend khan acdemy videos or math nation since they specialze in thses kinds of maths

y = - x - 3 ← is in slope- intercept form

with gradient m = - 1

Answer:

[tex]\rm Slope = -1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

A equation of line .[tex]\rm y = -x-3[/tex]

And we need to find out the gradient of the line. The gradient of the line is the " slope " of the line. The given equation is in slope Intercept Form , which is ,

Slope intercept form :-

[tex]\rm\implies y = mx + c [/tex]

Where m is the slope of the line and c is y intercept .

On comparing it to slope Intercept Form , we have ,

[tex]\implies \rm Slope (m) = (-1)[/tex]

Hence the gradient of the line is (-1) .

Answer:

since 13 miles is 68640 i wood say 189 inches long from bumper to bumper. A mile is 5,280 feet (or 63,360 inches).

If 335 of these cars were parked with their bumpers touching, they would be almost exactly a mile long.

If your question refers to traffic jams, the answer will be a bit different, since cars in traffic jams don’t get that close together. I’m going to take a wild guess here, but let’s assume that there is a 4-foot gap between cars in our hypothetical traffic jam.  now put that in to 13 miles

Determine the amplitude of the trigonometric function: *attached image*

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle 2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\displaystyle \boxed{y = -2cos\:(\frac{\pi}{3}x - \frac{2}{3}\pi) + \frac{1}{2}} \\ \\ y = Acos(Bx - C) + D \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow D \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow \frac{C}{B} \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow |A| \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow \frac{1}{2} \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow \frac{C}{B} \hookrightarrow \boxed{2} \hookrightarrow \frac{\frac{2}{3}\pi}{\frac{\pi}{3}} \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \hookrightarrow \boxed{6} \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{\frac{\pi}{3}}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow 2[/tex]

OR

[tex]\displaystyle \boxed{y = -2sin\:(\frac{\pi}{3}x - \frac{\pi}{6}) + \frac{1}{2}} \\ \\ y = Asin(Bx - C) + D \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow D \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow \frac{C}{B} \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow |A| \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow \frac{1}{2} \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow \frac{C}{B} \hookrightarrow \boxed{\frac{1}{2}} \hookrightarrow \frac{\frac{\pi}{6}}{\frac{\pi}{3}} \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \hookrightarrow \boxed{6} \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{\frac{\pi}{3}}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow 2[/tex]

As you can see, the right-centred photograph displays the trigonometric graph of [tex]\displaystyle y = -2cos\:\frac{\pi}{3}x + \frac{1}{2},[/tex]in which you need to replase "sine" with "cosine", then figure out the appropriate C-term that will horisontally shift and map the graph onto the sine graph [photograph farthest to the left], accourding to the horisontal shift formula above. Also keep in mind that the −C gives you the OPPOCITE TERMS OF WHAT THEY REALLY ARE, so be very careful with your calculations. So, between the two photographs, we can tell that the cosine graph [centre right photograph] is shifted [tex]\displaystyle 2\:units[/tex]to the left, which means that in order to match the sine graph [photograph farthest to the left], we need to shift the graph FORWARD [tex]\displaystyle 2\:units,[/tex]which means the C-term will be positive, and by perfourming your calculations, you get [tex]\displaystyle \boxed{2} = \frac{\frac{2}{3}\pi}{\frac{\pi}{3}}.[/tex]So, the cosine graph of the sine graph, accourding to the horisontal shift, is [tex]\displaystyle y = -2cos\:(\frac{\pi}{3}x - \frac{2}{3}\pi) + \frac{1}{2}.[/tex]Intermediate, we have two sine graphs to deal with [centre left photograph and the photograph farthest to the left]. The left-centred photograph displays the trigonometric graph of [tex]\displaystyle y = -2sin\:\frac{\pi}{3}x + \frac{1}{2}.[/tex]So, just like before, we need to figure out the appropriate C-term that will horisontally shift the graph back into position ["position", meaning shifting this sine graph back in plase (matching the sine graph in the photograph on the left)]. So, between the two photographs, we can tell that the left-centred sine graph is shifted [tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\:unit[/tex]to the left, which means that in order to match the leftward sine graph, we need to shift the graph FORWARD [tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\:unit,[/tex]which means the C-term will be positive, and by perfourming your calculations, you get [tex]\displaystyle \boxed{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{\frac{\pi}{6}}{\frac{\pi}{3}}.[/tex]So, when shifted back into original position, the sine graph is [tex]\displaystyle y = -2sin\:(\frac{\pi}{3}x - \frac{\pi}{6}) + \frac{1}{2}.[/tex]Now, with all that being said, in this case, sinse you ONLY have a graph to wourk with, you MUST figure the period out by using wavelengths. So, looking at where the graph WILL hit [tex]\displaystyle [-2\frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{2}],[/tex]from there to [tex]\displaystyle [3\frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{2}],[/tex]they are obviously [tex]\displaystyle 6\:units[/tex]apart, telling you that the period of the graph is [tex]\displaystyle 6.[/tex]Now, the amplitude is obvious to figure out because it is the A-term, and to be certain, look at the graph to see how low and high each crest extends beyond the midline. The midline is the centre of your graph, also known as the vertical shift, which in this case the centre is at [tex]\displaystyle y = \frac{1}{2},[/tex]in which each crest is extended two units beyond the midline, hence, your amplitude. Now... the sine graph in the photograph farthest to the right is the OPPOCITE of the sine graph in the photograph farthest to the left, and the reason for this is because of the negative inserted in front of the amplitude value. Whenever you insert a negative in front of the amplitude value of any trigonometric equation, the whole graph reflects over the midline. Keep this in mind moving forward. Now, with all that being said, no matter how far the graph shifts vertically, the midline will ALWAYS follow.

When Hiroto is writing, there is 0.920.920, point, 92 probability that there will be no spelling mistakes on a page. One day, Hiroto writes an essay that is 111111 pages long.

Answers

Complete question :

When Hiroto is writing, there is 0.92 probability that there will be no spelling mistakes on a page. One day, Hiroto writes an essay that is 11 pages long.

Assuming that Hiroto is equally likely to have a spelling mistake on each of the 11 pages, what is the probability that he will have a spelling mistake on at least one of the pages?

Answer:

0.60

Step-by-step explanation:

The question meets the requirement for a binomial probability distribution :

Recall:

P(x = x) = nCx * p^x * q^(n-x)

Given :

Probability of making a spelling mistake = 1 - p(not making) = 1 - 0.92 = 0.08

Hence,

p = 0.08 ; q = 0.92

n = 11

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - p(x = 0)

P(x = 0) = 11C0 * 0.08^0 * 0.92^11

P(x = 0) = 1 * 1 * 0.3996373778857415671808

P(x = 0) = 0.399

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - p(x = 0)

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - 0.399

P(x ≥ 1) = 0.601

P(x ≥ 1) = 0.60

Find the surface area and volume of the prism. Round your answer to nearest tenth.

Answers

Volume:

With this prism, first separate it into a rectangular prism and a right triangle prism.

First, with the rectangular prism, it would have the units 5 * 5 * 6.3. Then with the right triangle prism, it would take the rest of the remaining space of it, being 3 * 5 * 6.3

The equation for the volume of a rectangular prism is L*W*H and the equation for the volume of a right triangle prism is (L*W*H) / 2.

With this, plug the numbers in for both prisms to get the volume of each of them:

Rectangular prism Volume

5*5*6.3

157.5

Right triangle prism Volume

(3*5*6.3) / 2

94.5 / 2

47.25

Lastly, combine these two values to get the total volume:

157.5 + 47.25 = 204.75 (Round Up) -->

204.8 cm^3 = Total Volume

Surface Area:

Next, with the surface area of the prism. For this, lets combine all of the faces of the prism then add them all up.

First, lets do the bottom of the prism, or the base. It uses the lengths 8 cm and 6.3 cm. Lets do L * W to get the area of this face:

8 * 6.3 = 50.4

Next, lets do the slant side of it, which has the lengths 5.8 and 6.3.

5.8 * 6.3 = 36.54

Then, the top side with the lengths 5cm and 6.3 cm.

5.3 * 6.3 = 33.39

After that, the left side face that opposite to the slantly one:

5 * 6.3 = 31.5

Saving the most tedious part of it for last, the right trapezoids. Luckily, there is an equation for this:

1/2 x (Sum of parallel sides) x (perpendicular distance between the parallel sides).

So, within each of these right trapezoids, there's the parallel sides of 5 and 8. There's also a perpendicular side of 5cm. With this, we can plug this into the equation to solve for this part:

1/2 x (5+8) * (5)

1/2 x (13) * (5)

1/2 x (65)

32.5

Since there's two of them, times this by 2:

32.5 * 2 ---> 65.

Now, with the area of all of the faces, these can be added up for the total surface area:

50.4 + 36.54 + 33.39 + 31.5 + 65 ---> 216.83 (Round Down)-->

216.8 cm^2 = Total Surface Area

$1555.00 at 8% for 2 years
PLEASE HELP ASAP​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf \$ 1803.80}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are using the formula I=PRT and calculating simple interest.

[tex]I=PRT[/tex]

I is the interest, P is the principal or starting amount, R is the interest rate as a decimal, and T is the time in years.

We know that there is $1555.00 at 8% for 2 years. First, convert the interest rate to a decimal. Divide the rate by 100 or move the decimal place 2 spots to the left.

8/100 = 0.08 8. --> 0.8  --> 0.08

Now we know all the values:

P= 1555.00 R= 0.08T= 2

Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex]I= (1555.00)(0.08)(2)[/tex]

Multiply.

[tex]I=124.4(2)[/tex]

[tex]I=248.8[/tex]

The account earned $248.80 in interest, but the question asks for the total amount in the account. We must add the interest to the starting amount.

[tex]1555.00 +248.80[/tex]

[tex]1803.8[/tex]

After 2 years, the savings account had $1803.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal=P=1555

Rate of Interest=I=8%=0.08

Time=t=2

Interest=I=PRT

➜1555×0.08×2

➜248.8

Savings=P+I

➜1555+248.8

➜1803.8

How to do probability?

Answers

Probability is simply how likely something is to happen.

Whenever we’re unsure about the outcome of an event, we can talk about the probabilities of certain outcomes—how likely they are. The analysis of events governed by probability is called statistics.

The best example for understanding probability is flipping a coin:

There are two possible outcomes—heads or tails.

What’s the probability of the coin landing on Heads? We can find out using the equation P(H) = ?P(H)=?P, left parenthesis, H, right parenthesis, equals, question mark.You might intuitively know that the likelihood is half/half, or 50%.  

Tips

The probability of an event can only be between 0 and 1 and can also be written as a percentage.
