The cost of one share in the software company (x) is $32, and the cost of one share in the biotech company (y) is approximately $93.

Let's denote the cost of one share in the software company as 'x' dollars and the cost of one share in the biotech company as 'y' dollars.

According to the given information, Sally purchased 7 shares in the software company and 87 shares in the biotech company, which cost a total of $8,315. We can express this as the following equation:

7x + 87y = 8315 ----(Equation 1)

Similarly, Katle invested a total of $7,338 in 84 shares in the software company and 50 shares in the biotech company. This can be represented as the following equation:

84x + 50y = 7338 ----(Equation 2)

To solve this system of equations, we can use the method of substitution or elimination. Here, we will use the elimination method.

Multiply Equation 1 by 50 and Equation 2 by 87 to eliminate the 'y' terms:

350x + 4350y = 415750 ----(Equation 3)

7308x + 4350y = 638526 ----(Equation 4)

Now, subtract Equation 3 from Equation 4:

(7308x + 4350y) - (350x + 4350y) = 638526 - 415750

Simplifying the equation:

7308x - 350x = 222776

6958x = 222776

Divide both sides of the equation by 6958:

x = 222776 / 6958

x = 32

Now that we have the value of 'x', we can substitute it back into either Equation 1 or Equation 2 to solve for 'y'. Let's substitute it into Equation 1:

7(32) + 87y = 8315

224 + 87y = 8315

87y = 8315 - 224

87y = 8091

Divide both sides of the equation by 87:

y = 8091 / 87

y ≈ 93

Therefore, the cost of one share in the software company (x) is $32, and the cost of one share in the biotech company (y) is approximately $93.

[tex]\textsf{12)} \quad \text{a.}\;\;m \angle 1 = 107^{\circ}, \quad \text{b.}\;\;m \angle 2 = 107^{\circ}, \quad \text{c.}\;\;m \angle 3 = 73^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{13)} \quad EC = 6[/tex]

[tex]\textf{14)}\quad \text{a.}\;\;x = 33, \quad \text{b.}\;\; x = 8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

As the base angles of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent, the measures of angles E and J are the same. Therefore:

[tex]m\angle 3 = 73^{\circ}[/tex]

The opposite angles of an isosceles trapezoid sum to 180°. Therefore:

[tex]\implies m\angle 1 + m\angle 3 = 180^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\implies m\angle 1 + 73^{\circ} = 180^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\implies m\angle 1 = 107^{\circ}[/tex]

Since the base angles of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent, the measures of angles A and N are the same. Therefore:

[tex]m\angle 2 = 107^{\circ}[/tex]

The diagonals of isosceles trapezoid ABCD are AC and BD.

Point E is the point of intersection of the diagonals. Therefore:

[tex]BE + ED = BD[/tex]

[tex]AE + EC = AC[/tex]

As the diagonals of an isosceles trapezoid are the same length, BD = AC. Therefore:

[tex]AE + EC = BD[/tex]

Given BD = 20 and AE = 14:

[tex]\implies AE + EC = BD[/tex]

[tex]\implies 14 + EC = 20[/tex]

[tex]\implies 14 + EC - 14 = 20 - 14[/tex]

The pixel resolution is 4.896 x 10^5 pixels; in megapixels, it's approximately 0.490; and the aspect ratio is 18:17.

First, let's calculate the resolution in pixels: Resolution is simply the width times the height of the sensor. Specifically for this question, multiply 720 by 680. This gives us 489600 pixels for the resolution - in scientific notation to 4 significant figures we have 4.896 x 10^5.

Next, to calculate the resolution in megapixels, we need to divide the resolution by 1 million (since one megapixel is equal to 1 million pixels). So, 489600/1,000,000 is approximately 0.490 megapixels when rounded to the nearest thousandth of a megapixel.

Finally, the aspect ratio is the relationship of the width to the height of an image or screen. For a 720 x 680 sensor, if we divide 720 by 680, the result would be approximately 1.0588. However, we want this ratio in its simplest form, so we should use the greatest common divisor (GCD). In this case, the GCD of 720 and 680 is 40, so by dividing both dimensions by 40, we get an aspect ratio of 18:17.

The modal sizes of shoes in the family's cupboard are 8 and 7.

To determine the modal size of shoes in the family's cupboard, we need to find the shoe size that appears most frequently in the given data. Let's analyze the sizes:

8, 7, 8, 8.5, 7, 8.5, 7

To find the mode, we can create a frequency table by counting the number of occurrences for each shoe size:

8     |     3

7     |     3

8.5 | 2

From the frequency table, we can see that both size 8 and size 7 appear three times each, while size 8.5 appears two times. Since both size 8 and size 7 have the highest frequency of occurrence (3), they are considered modal sizes. In this case, there is more than one mode, and we refer to it as a bimodal distribution.

To determine the mode, we performed a frequency count of each shoe size in the given data. We counted the number of occurrences for sizes 8, 7, and 8.5. Based on the frequency counts, we identified the sizes with the highest frequency, which turned out to be 8 and 7, both occurring three times. Thus, they are the modal sizes in the data set.

The limit of f(x) as x approaches 10 is 315 and The value of k is 250.

The function f(x) is a piecewise function, so we need to evaluate it separately for x < 10 and x >= 10.

[tex]f(x)= { \frac{(0.1x(2)+20x+15,x < 10)}{(0.25x(3)+k,x > 10)}[/tex]

For x < 10, the function is equal to 0.1x^2 + 20x + 15. So the left-hand limit of f(x) as x approaches 10 is equal to 0.1(10)^2 + 20(10) + 15 = 315.

For x >= 10, the function is equal to 0.25x^3 + k. So the right-hand limit of f(x) as x approaches 10 is equal to 0.25(10)^3 + k = 250 + k.

Given the system of equations as X+ y- z=63x- y+ z=2x- 4y+ 2z-34.We have to use row operations to solve this system of equations. Let us start by writing down the augmented matrix of the given system of equations.  [1, 1, -1 | 6][3, -1, 1 | 2][1, -4, 2 | -34]

The first step is to change the first element of the second row to zero. For that, we subtract three times the first row from the second row to get the following:  [1, 1, -1 | 6][0, -4, 4 | -16][1, -4, 2 | -34]

Now, we need to change the first element of the third row to zero. For that, we subtract the first row from the third-row to get the following:  [1, 1, -1 | 6][0, -4, 4 | -16][0, -5, 3 | -40]

The next step is to change the second element of the third row to zero. For that, we add 5/4 times the second row to the third row to get the following:  [1, 1, -1 | 6][0, -4, 4 | -16][0, 0, 7 | -24]

Now, we solve the system of equations using back-substitution. We have 7z = -24 ⇒ z = -24/7

Substituting this value of z in the second equation, we get -4y = 4 - z = 4 + 24/7 = 52/7⇒ y = -13/7

Substituting these values of y and z in the first equation, we get x = 63 - y + z = 63 + 13/7 - 24/7 = 460/7Thus, the solution of the given system of equations is (x, y, z) = (460/7, -13/7, -24/7). Therefore, the correct choice is A. This system has exactly one solution. The solution is (460/7, -13/7, -24/7).

The given system of equations is solved using row operations. It is found that this system has exactly one solution which is (460/7, -13/7, -24/7). Therefore, the correct choice is A. This system has exactly one solution. The solution is (460/7, -13/7, -24/7).

The volume of the gas after it is heated is approximately 0.0417 liters.

To find the volume of the gas after it is heated, we can use the combined gas law, which relates the initial and final conditions of a gas sample. The combined gas law is expressed as:

(P₁V₁) / T₁ = (P₂V₂) / T₂

Where:

P₁ and P₂ are the initial and final pressures of the gas (in kPa)

V₁ and V₂ are the initial and final volumes of the gas (in liters)

T₁ and T₂ are the initial and final temperatures of the gas (in Kelvin)

Given:

Initial volume (V₁) = 3.56 L

Initial temperature (T₁) = ST (which is typically 273.15 K)

Final temperature (T₂) = 400 K

Final pressure (P₂) = 125 kPa

Now we can plug these values into the combined gas law equation and solve for V₂:

(P₁V₁) / T₁ = (P₂V₂) / T₂

(1 * 3.56) / 273.15 = (125 * V₂) / 400

(3.56 / 273.15) = (125 * V₂) / 400

Cross-multiplying and solving for V₂:

3.56 * 400 = 273.15 * 125 * V₂

1424 = 34143.75 * V₂

V₂ = 1424 / 34143.75

V₂ ≈ 0.0417 L

As a result, the heated gas has a volume of approximately 0.0417 litres.

Answer:

39°

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

let the other angle be x , then

x + 54° + 87° = 180°

x + 141° = 180° ( subtract 141° from both sides )

x = 39°

that is the other angle is 39°

In a triangle, the sum of all angles is always 180°. To find the third angle in a scalene triangle where two angles are known, subtract the known angles from 180°. In this case, subtracting 54° and 87° from 180° gives a third angle of 39°.

The question refers to finding the third angle in a scalene triangle, where we know two of the angles. A scalene triangle is a triangle where all three sides are of a different length, and therefore all three angles are also different. The sum of the angles in any triangle is always 180°.

To find the third angle in the triangle, you can use the equation: Angle C = 180° - Angle A - Angle B.

So, we subtract the known angles from 180°: Angle C = 180° - 54° - 87° = 39°.

Therefore, the third angle in this scalene triangle is 39°.

The first roll contains 80m 20cm of wire. We can convert this to meters by noting that 1 meter is equal to 100 centimeters. Therefore, the length of the first roll is:

80m 20cm = 80 meters + (20 centimeters / 100) meters

= 80 meters + 0.20 meters

= 80.20 meters

Similarly, the second roll contains 86m 56cm of wire. Converting this to meters:

86m 56cm = 86 meters + (56 centimeters / 100) meters

= 86 meters + 0.56 meters

= 86.56 meters

To find the total length, we add the lengths of both rolls:

Total length = 80.20 meters + 86.56 meters

= 166.76 meters

Therefore, the total length of electric wire in both rolls is 166.76 meters.

The asymptotic distribution of the estimator S(X₁, ..., Xₙ) is a standard normal distribution, denoted as N(0, 1).

To find the asymptotic distribution of the estimator S(X₁, ..., Xₙ), we can use the Central Limit Theorem (CLT). However, we need some additional assumptions to apply the CLT, such as the finite variance of the random variables.

Given that E(Xᵢ^k) = αₖ for all k, we can assume that the random variables Xᵢ have a finite variance. Let's denote the variance of Xᵢ as Var(Xᵢ) = σ².

First, let's simplify the estimator S(X₁, ..., Xₙ):

S(X₁, ..., Xₙ) = 1 / (1/n ∑ᵢ (Xᵢ - c)²)

Notice that the numerator is a constant and doesn't affect the asymptotic distribution. So, we can focus on analyzing the denominator.

Let's calculate the expected value and variance of the denominator:

E[1/n ∑ᵢ (Xᵢ - c)²] = 1/n ∑ᵢ E[(Xᵢ - c)²] = 1/n ∑ᵢ (Var(Xᵢ) + E[Xᵢ]² - 2cE[Xᵢ] + c²)

= 1/n (nσ² + α₁ - 2cα₁ + c²) (using the fact that E[Xᵢ] = α₁ for all i)

Var[1/n ∑ᵢ (Xᵢ - c)²] = 1/n² ∑ᵢ Var[(Xᵢ - c)²] = 1/n² ∑ᵢ (Var(Xᵢ - c)²) = 1/n² ∑ᵢ (Var(Xᵢ))

= 1/n² (nσ²) = σ²/n

Now, let's apply the CLT. According to the CLT, if we have a sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables with a finite mean (μ) and a finite variance (σ²), the sample mean (in this case, our denominator) converges in distribution to a standard normal distribution as the sample size approaches infinity.

Therefore, as n approaches infinity, the asymptotic distribution of S(X₁, ..., Xₙ) will follow a standard normal distribution.
