Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.

Answer:

x = y = 2√7 = 5.292

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a right isosceles triangle, so the length of the hypotenuse is √2 times the length of each leg. Since the hypotenuse is 2√14, each leg measures 2√7.

The length of the sides of the right isosceles triangle is 5.292units.

A right isosceles triangle is a special type of triangle that has two equal-length legs and a right angle between them. Because it has two equal legs, it is also an isosceles triangle. The name "right isosceles" comes from the fact that it has a right angle and two equal legs.

In the given question,

In a right isosceles triangle, the two legs are congruent, and the length of the hypotenuse can be found using the Pythagorean theorem:

a² + b² = c²

Since this is an isosceles triangle, we know that a = b, so we can simplify the equation to:

2a² = c²

Taking the square root of both sides, we get:

a√2 = c

In this case, we are given that the hypotenuse has a length of 2√14, so we can set c equal to that value and solve for a:

a√2 = 2√14

a = (2√14)/√2

Simplifying the expression by canceling the square root of 2 in the denominator, we get:

a = 2√7

Therefore, each leg of the isosceles triangle has a length of 2√7, which agrees with your answer.

Best investment amounts are $2,000 in high-risk account, $1,000 in bank certificates of deposit, and $7,000 in municipal bonds and remaining $4,000 placed in municipal bonds to optimize return while lowering risk.

We must adhere to two criteria in order to find the best investment amounts: reducing risk and satisfying tax obligations.

Let's think about the high-risk account first. We will only put $2,000 in this account because that is the most we are ready to risk because we want to keep the risk to a minimum.

Let's go on to the tax regulations. We must invest at least $3,000 in municipal bonds to reach the three times minimum investment requirement in municipal bonds compared to bank CDs. We will therefore put $1,000 into bank CDs and $3,000 into municipal bonds.

We currently have $2,000 set aside for the high-risk account, $1,000 for bank CDs, and $3,000 set aside for municipal bonds. We are now left with $4,000 to invest.

This $4,000 can be invested in a way that strikes a compromise between the need to reduce risk and the desire for great returns. We have the choice of investing the final $4,000 in either municipal bonds or CDs from a nearby bank, depending on our investment alternatives.

Our total investment would be $5,000 in bank CDs, $3,000 in municipal bonds, and $2,000 in the high-risk account if we choose to invest the additional $4,000 in the local bank CDs. The expected return from this is:

($5,000 x 8%) + ($3,000 x 7%) + ($2,000 x 12%) = $400 + $210 + $240 = $850.

If we choose to invest the $4,000 in municipal bonds, our overall investment will consist of $2,000 in the high-risk account, $1,000 in bank CDs, and $7,000 in municipal bonds. The expected return from this is:

($1,000 x 8%) + ($7,000 x 7%) + ($2,000 x 12%) = $80 + $490 + $240 = $810.

Width: 11 feet

Length: 15 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Width (W) = W ft

Length (L) = (4 + W) ft

Area (A) = 165 ft^2

(a)

The area of a rectangle is equal to the product of its length and width, therefore:

We solve the equation by factoring:

        [tex]W^2+4W-165=0[/tex]

       [tex]4W=-11W+15W[/tex]

[tex]W^2-11W+15W-165=0[/tex]

If a teacher cuts out 15 congruent circles from a single sheet of paper that measures 6 inches by 10 inches, then (60 - 1.5 π) square inches paper is wasted.

The area of each circle is given by the formula [tex]A = \pi r^2[/tex], where r is the radius of the circle. Since all 15 circles are congruent, they all have the same radius.

Let's first find the radius of each circle. Since the circles are cut from a 6 by 10 inch sheet of paper, we know that the diameter of each circle cannot be greater than 6 inches or 10 inches. Let's take the smaller dimension (6 inches) and divide it by 15 to find the maximum possible diameter of each circle:

6 inches ÷ 15 = 0.4 inches

Therefore, the maximum possible radius of each circle is 0.2 inches.

Now we can calculate the total area of all 15 circles:

Total area of circles = [tex]15 * \pi * (0.2)^2[/tex]

[tex]= 1.5 \pi[/tex] square inches

The area of the original sheet of paper is 6 inches * 10 inches = 60 square inches. Therefore, the amount of paper wasted is:

Amount of paper wasted = Area of sheet - Total area of circles

= 60 square inches - 1.5 π square inches

= 60 square inches - 4.71 square inches (using π ≈ 3.14)

= 55.29 square inches (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, the answer is (60 - 1.5π) square inches.

Answer:

The appropriate domain for the function is [0, ∞).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function: f(x) = 120 (0.86)x

To find the function values, we can substitute the given value of x into the function:

f(0) = 120 (0.86)^0 = 120 (1) = 120

Interpretation: When the medication is first taken, there are 120 milligrams of medicine in the person's bloodstream.

f(2) = 120 (0.86)^2 ≈ 84.24

Interpretation: After 2 hours, there are approximately 84.24 milligrams of medicine remaining in the person's bloodstream.

f(6) = 120 (0.86)^6 ≈ 34.17

Interpretation: After 6 hours, there are approximately 34.17 milligrams of medicine remaining in the person's bloodstream.

The domain of the function is all non-negative real numbers, since the amount of medicine in the bloodstream can't be negative and time is measured in non-negative hours. So the appropriate domain for the function is [0, ∞).

In Mathematics, the relationship between two values which are not equal is expressed by inequalities. The equation of inequality for the given graph is y ≥ -1/2x + 2.  

In mathematics, an inequality is a relationship in which two numbers or other mathematical expressions compare unequal. Most commonly used to compare two numbers on the number line based on size. There are different notations used to represent different types of inequalities.

In both the cases a is not equal to b and such relationships are known as strict inequalities. This means that a is either strictly less than or greater than b. Equivalents are excluded whereas in inexact inequalities.

For the given graph:

take run = 1 and rise = -1/2

Thus, the slope will be,

Slope = (⁻¹/₂)/1

Slope = -1/2

Since, the y intercept is 2. Then the equation is y = -1/2x + 2

Take point (1,2) on the graph and apply in the equation:

y = -1/2x + 2

2 = -1/2 (1) + 2

2 = -1/2 + 2

2 = 3/2

The arch has a width of 6 - (-6) = 12 feet at ground level.

To find the width of the arch at ground level, we need to find the x-values where y = 0, since the width of the arch is the distance between these two x-values.

So, we set y = 0 and solve for x:

0 = − 1/3(x + 6)(x − 6)

Either x + 6 = 0 or x - 6 = 0

If x + 6 = 0, then x = -6.

If x - 6 = 0, then x = 6.

To find the width of the arch at ground level, we need to find the x-values where y=0.

y = − 1/3(x + 6)(x − 6)

Setting y=0:

0 = − 1/3(x + 6)(x − 6)

We can solve for x using the zero product property:

0 = x + 6 or 0 = x - 6

x = -6 or x = 6

The total health care expenditures in year x would be equal to the product of the percentage of income spent on health care (P(x)) and the income (I(x)) in year x. Therefore, the function H can be expressed as:

H(x) = P(x) * I(x)

This function takes into account both the amount spent on health care as well as the income level, providing a comprehensive representation of health care expenditures.

Step-by-step explanation:

that depends on the result dimension of P(x).

if P(x) delivers the percentage in the form xx.xx%, then

H(x) = I(x) × P(x) / 100

if P(x) delivers the percentage in the form 0.xxxx, then

H(x) = I(x) × P(x)

very basically, the absolute amount of a percentage of a whole is the product between both (and divided by 100).

e.g.

let's say, the whole amount is $64,000.

and we need to know 10% of that.

10% of 64,000 is then

64,000 × 10 / 100 = 6,400

or

64,000 × 0.10 = 6,400

can you see the connection, and why both versions do the same ?

Answer:

The amount of discount is 35% of � x, which is (35/100)� x = 0.35� x. So, the discounted price is � x minus the discount, which is � x - 0.35� x = 0.65� x.

Then, the tax is added to the discounted price, which is 8% of the discounted price, or (8/100)(0.65� x) = 0.052� x.

Therefore, the expression for the total amount that Violet paid at the register is:

The length of the side AC or the height of the smaller equilateral triangle is 3√2 inches.

The length of the side AC is equal to the height of the smaller equilateral triangle.

We know that in an equilateral triangle, all sides are equal, and all angles are 60 degrees.

Let's call the height of the smaller equilateral triangle h, and the length of one side of the smaller triangle x.

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the value of h:

(1/2)x^2 + h^2 = x^2

h^2 = x^2 - (1/2)x^2

h^2 = (1/2)x^2

h = sqrt((1/2)x^2)

Now, we also know that the side of the large equilateral triangle is 6 inches, so x = 6 inches.

Substituting this value into the equation for h, we get:

h = √((1/2)(6^2))

h = √(18)

h = 3√2 inches.

Therefore, the height of the smaller equilateral triangle is 3√2 inches.

The probability that exactly one of three randomly selected high school students graduate, given an 85% graduation rate, is 0.057. This calculation was based on the combination formula and the binomial probability distribution.

This problem involves calculating the probability of a specific outcome (exactly one of the three students graduating) in a binomial distribution. We know that the probability of any one student graduating is 0.85, so the probability of one student not graduating is 0.15. Using the binomial probability formula, we can calculate the probability of exactly one student graduating out of three as:

P(X = 1) = (3 choose 1) * (0.85)^1 * (0.15)^2 = 3 * 0.85 * 0.0225 = 0.057

Therefore, the answer is 0.057, or approximately 5.7%. This means that if we randomly select three high school students from different schools, there is a 5.7% chance that exactly one of them will graduate.
