Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question will be Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Marketing Analyst seems to be responsible for information and evaluation that directs its marketing team and directs its marketing approach by defining the target clients as well as the competitiveness of the product.A survey of 899 American citizens requires appropriate evidence to demonstrate that perhaps the marketing strategy is working even though there was not considerable evidence to suggest that even the total demand for popcorn had increased.

Other given choices are not related to the given circumstances. So that option A seems to be the appropriate choice.

A farmer planted corn in two different fields. He planted 500 seeds of regular corn in Field A and 500 seeds of experimental corn in Field B. At

harvest time, more ears of corn had grown in Field A than in Field B. The farmer concluded that more corn grew in Field A because of the type

of corn planted.

Choose two other possible variables that could have caused more corn to grow in Field A.

Answers

Answer:

1. More pollination process in the regular corn planted in field A than that of field B.

2. Low pest and insect attack on corn planted in field A compared to that of B.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Pollination is the process in which a plant becomes fertilized, so as to produced seeds. The process requires some agent which could be; air, human, wind etc.

Therefore more pollination of the corn planted in field A than those in B would lead to more yield (ears of corn harvested) than that of B.

2. Pests and insects are agents which could reduce the yield of the corn after harvest. Comparing the two fields A and B, if the corn planted in field A were not affected by pests or insects, while those planted in B were affected, then more ears of corn would be harvested in field A.

Answers

Answer:

12 x y² + 6 y³

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given ( 2 x + x + x + 2 y ) times 3 y times y

( 2 x + x + x + 2 y ) × 3 y × y = ( 4 x + 2 y) × 3 y × y =  ( 4 x + 2 y) 3 y²

By applying Distributive property

( a + b ) c = a . c + b . c

               = 4 x . 3 y² + 2 y . 3 y²

               = 12 x y² + 6 y³

A physical fitness association is including the mile run in its secondary-school fitness test. The time for this event for boys in secondary school is known to possess a normal distribution with a mean of 460 seconds and a standard deviation of 40 seconds. Find the probability that a randomly selected boy in secondary school can run the mile in less than 368 seconds.

Answers

Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected boy in secondary school can run the mile in less than 368 seconds is P(X<368)=0.011.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a normal distribution with mean 460 and standard deviation 40 to describe the time for the mile run in its secondary-school fitness test.

We have to calculate the probabiltiy that a randomly selected boy in secondary school can run the mile in less than 368 seconds.

To calculate this, we have to calculate the z-score for X=368:

[tex]z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{368-460}{40}=\dfrac{-92}{40}=-2.3[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the probability:

[tex]P(X<368)=P(z<-2.3)=0.011[/tex]

Answer:

Amount received per brother based on number of children plus debt is given as

Step-by-step explanation:

English Translation

A prestigious businessman decides to distribute his inheritance of S / 176,000 among his three brothers Roberto, Luis and Armando, DP to the number of his children and IP to the amount of his debts. How much corresponds to each brother?

Roberto: No of children 4, Amount of debts (S /): 2 000

Luis: No. of children 3, Amount of debts (S /): 6,000

Armando: No of children 5, Amount of debts (S /): 8,000

Solution

The man shares the inheritance according to the number of children per person and according to each brother's debts.

Assuming the debts are first settled,

The total debts = 2000 + 6000 + 8000 = S/ 16,000

We assume that each brother receives the respective debt amounts first, then the remaining cash is divided amongst the 3 brothers according to the number of their children.

Total amount available = S/ 176,000

total debt = S/ 16,000

Amount available less debts = 176,000 - 16,000 = S/ 160,000

There are 4, 3 and 5 children respectively for the 3 brothers.

Total number of children = 4+3+5 = 12.

Amount corresponding based on a per child basis =( S/ 160,000/12) = S/ 13,333.33

Meaning that each brother receives the following amount based on their children's sake

Roberto, 4 × S/ 13,333 = S/ 53,333.33

Luis, 3 × S/ 13,333.33 = S/ 40,000

Armando, 5 × S/ 13,333 = S/ 66,666.67

Total amount each brother then receives when the amount received due to debts are added

Roberto, 53,333.33 + 2,000 = S/ 55,333.33

Luis, 40,000 + 6,000 = S/ 46,000

Armando, 66,666.67 + 8,000 = S/ 74,666.67

To check, 55,333.33 + 46,000 + 74,666.67 = 176,000 (total inheritance!)

Queremos ver como se reparte una dada suma entre 3 hermanos, siendo que tenemos unas dadas restricciones, donde debemos trabajar con relaciones directamente proporcionales e inversamente proporcionales.

Veremos que:

Roberto recibe: $112,640

Luis recibe: $28,160

Armando recibe: $35,200

Sabemos que lo que se reparte es directamente proporcional al número de hijos de cada hermano, e inversamente proporcional a las deudas de cada hijo.

Entonces, definamos las variables:

R = lo que recibe Roberto.

L = Lo que recibe Luis

A = lo que recibe Armando.

Tendremos que:

R + L + A = $176,000

directamente proporcional significa: y = k*xInversamente proporcional significa: y = k/z

Entonces como lo que recibe cada hermano es directamente proporcional al número de hijos (x) e inversamente proporcional a la deuda (z) lo que cada hermano recibe será:

R = k*4/2,000L = k*3/6,000A = k*5/8,000

Entonces podemos escribir:

R + L + A = $176,000

k*4/2,000 +  k*3/6,000 + k*5/8,000 = $176,000

k*(4/2,000 + 3/6,000 + 5/8,000) = $176,000

k*(0.003125) =  $176,000

k = $176,000/(0.003125) = $56,320,000

Ahora que conocemos el valor de k, podemos calcular lo que cada hermano recibe:

R = $56,320,000*(4/2,000) = $112,640

L = $56,320,000*(3/6,000) = $28,160

A = $56,320,000*(5/8,000) = $35,200

Answers

Answer:

Option (C).

Step-by-step explanation:

In the graph attached,

An absolute function has been given.

To check a graph whether it's a relation or a function, vertical line test is a trusted tool.

In vertical line test a vertical line (parallel to y-axis) is drawn passing through the graph.

If the vertical line cuts the graph at only one point then the graph is said to be a function.

The given graph passes the vertical test.

Therefore, it's a function.

Option C. will be the answer.

Yes, this graph represents a function, because it passes the vertical line test. Option C is correct

What exactly is a function?

A function is a statement, rule, or law that specifies the connection between two variables. Functions are common in mathematics and are required for the formulation of physical connections.

An absolute function is shown in the graph that is attached. The vertical line test is a reliable method for determining if a graph represents a relation or a function.

In the vertical line test, a vertical line that is parallel to the y-axis and cuts through the graph is created. The graph is considered to be a function if the vertical line only intersects it once.

The vertical test is passed by the shown graph. It serves a purpose as a result.

Hence option C is correct.

Answers

Complete Question

Let A be an n x n matrix, b be a nonzero vector, and x_0 be a solution vector of the system Ax = b. Show that x is a solution of the non-homogeneous system Ax = b if and only if y = x - x_0 is a solution of the homogeneous system Ay = 0.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    A is an  n × n matrix

   b is a zero vector

  [tex]x_o[/tex] us the solution vector of  [tex]Ax = b[/tex]

Which implies that  

     [tex]Ax_o = b[/tex]

So first we show that

  if [tex]x[/tex] is the solution matrix of [tex]Ax = b[/tex]

  and  [tex]y= x-x_o[/tex] is the solution of  [tex]Ay = 0[/tex]

Then

    [tex]A(x-x_o) = 0[/tex]

=>   [tex]Ax -Ax_o = 0[/tex]

=>   [tex]b-b = 0[/tex]

Secondly to show that

   if  [tex]y= x-x_o[/tex] is the solution of  [tex]Ay =0[/tex]

  then x is the solution of the non-homogeneous system

    [tex]Ax = b[/tex]

Now we know that [tex]y = x-x_o[/tex] is the solution of  [tex]Ay =0[/tex]

So

     [tex]Ay = 0[/tex]

=>  [tex]A(x- x_o) = 0[/tex]

=>   [tex]Ax - Ax_o = 0[/tex]

=>   [tex]Ax - b = 0[/tex]

=>    [tex]Ax = b[/tex]

Thus this has been proved
