So the equation in the form y=kx is: y = 180,000x, where y is the cost in dollars and x is the length of the commercial in seconds.

In mathematics, an equation is a statement that asserts the equality of two expressions. It typically consists of two expressions separated by an equal sign, with the expression to the left of the equal sign indicating the left-hand side of the equation, and the expression to the right of the equal sign indicating the right-hand side of the equation. Equations can be used to describe relationships between variables, to solve problems, and to model real-world phenomena.

Here,

a. Yes, the cost of the commercials is proportional to the length of time the commercial aired.

b. To find the cost of a commercial in dollars per second, we need to divide the cost by the length of the commercial in seconds. Using the given values, we get:

For a 15-second commercial: $2,700,000 ÷ 15 = $180,000 per second

For a 60-second commercial: $10,800,000 ÷ 60 = $180,000 per second

For a 90-second commercial: $16,200,000 ÷ 90 = $180,000 per second

For a 120-second commercial: $21,600,000 ÷ 120 = $180,000 per second

We can see that the cost per second is constant at $180,000. So the equation in the form y=kx is:

y = 180,000x, where y is the cost in dollars and x is the length of the commercial in seconds.

The true statement about the value of a in comparison to 0 and 1 is that it is a real number between 0 and 1.

A graph of y = f⁻¹(x) is shown below.

An equation for f⁻¹(x) is [tex]y=\frac{1}{a^x}[/tex].

For any given function, y = f(x), if the output value (range or y-value) is decreasing when the input value (domain or x-value) is increased, then, the function is generally referred to as a decreasing function.

By critically observing the graph of f(x), we can logically deduce that [tex]a^x[/tex] is positive for all values of x and as such, all values of a must also be positive:

0 < a

Additionally, the exponential function [tex]a^x[/tex] represent a decreasing function, so for any values of x, we have:

Since trapezoid ABCD is inscribed in circle O, we know that angles A and D are right angles. We also know that the measure of angle ABD is equal to half the measure of arc AC. Since DC is a diameter of the circle, arc AC is a semicircle and thus has a measure of 180 degrees. Therefore, angle ABD has a measure of 90 degrees.

We also know that the sum of the measures of the angles in a trapezoid is equal to 360 degrees. Therefore, we can set up the following equation:

mAB + mBC + mCD + mDA = 360

Substituting the given values, we get:

80 + mBC + 90 + 90 = 360

Simplifying, we get:

mBC = 100

Therefore, mBC is equal to 100 degrees.

Answer: Two other positive angles of rotation that take A to B are:

The missing number in the pattern is 64.

To find the missing number in the pattern, we need to identify the rule that relates the given numbers.

If we look at the pattern, we can see that each number is obtained by subtracting a certain value from the previous number.

Starting from 106, we subtract 16 to get 90. Then we subtract 14 to get 76. To get the next number, we need to subtract 12 from 76:

76 - 12 = 64

Therefore, the missing number in the pattern is 64.

After 64, we continue the pattern by subtracting 8 from 64 to get 56, and then subtracting 10 from 56 to get 46.

The list that shows the side lengths, in inches, of the triangle Riley drew is: 59/5, 57/5, 3/2

What is Triangle ?

A triangle is a polygon with three sides and three angles. It is one of the basic shapes in geometry and is commonly used in various fields such as engineering, physics, and architecture. The sum of the angles of a triangle always adds up to 180 degrees.

To find the side lengths of the triangle Riley drew, we need to multiply each of Jim's side lengths by the scale factor of ‡, which means multiplying by 3.

The side lengths of Jim's triangle, when written with common denominators, are:

3¼ = 13/4

4.9 = 38/10

5/10 = 1/2

Multiplying each of these by 3 gives:

13/4 * 3 = 39/4

38/10 * 3 = 114/10 = 57/5

1/2 * 3 = 3/2

So, the side lengths of the triangle Riley drew are:

39/4, 57/5, 3/2

We can simplify these fractions by finding a common denominator:

39/4 = 236/20

57/5 = 228/20

3/2 = 30/20

So, the side lengths of the triangle Riley drew, in inches, are:

236/20, 228/20, 30/20

Simplifying further by dividing each numerator by 4, we get:

59/5, 57/5, 15/10

Therefore, the list that shows the side lengths, in inches, of the triangle Riley drew is:

59/5, 57/5, 3/2

Answer:

We do not know if the triangles are congruent because we have no information about congruent sides.

Answer:

  a) 7 m

  b) 22 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given plans at a scale of 1 : 50, you want (a) the actual length corresponding to a plan length of 14 cm, and (b) the plan length corresponding to an actual length of 11 m.

The actual lengths are wanted in meters, so we can rewrite the scale to translate between plan cm and actual m.

  plan : actual = 1 cm : 50 cm

  = 1 cm : 0.5 m

  = 2 cm : 1 m

Multiplying the scale by 7, we have ...

  2 cm : 1 m = 14 cm : 7 m

The actual length is 7 meters.

Multiplying the scale by 11, we have ...

  2 cm : 1 m = 22 cm : 11 m

The plan length is 22 cm.

The answer is "a. five eighths; the probability that a day fell on a weekend given that it is sunny".

What is probability?

Probability is a way to gauge how likely something is to happen. Many things are difficult to forecast with absolute confidence. Using it, we can only make predictions about the likelihood of an event happening, or how probable it is.

We can use Bayes' theorem to find P(W|S), the probability that a day fell on a weekend given that it is sunny:

P(W|S) = P(S|W) * P(W) / P(S)

We are given that 15 days were sunny out of a 30-day month, so P(S) = 15/30 = 1/2.

Out of the 30 days, 8 fell on a weekend, so P(W) = 8/30 = 4/15.

We are also given that 5 of the sunny days fell on a weekend, so P(S|W) = 5/8.

Substituting these values, we get:

P(W|S) = (5/8) * (4/15) / (1/2) = 5/12

Therefore, the answer is "a. five eighths; the probability that a day fell on a weekend given that it is sunny".

An mathematical equation with only a constant and a first-order (linear) component, such as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, is known as a linear equation.

                        Sometimes, the aforementioned is referred to as a "linear equation of two variables," where x and y are the variables.

the demand function:

x² + p² = 2450

Differentiating both sides of the demand function with respect to time t using the chain rule, we get:

  2x * dx/dt + 2p * dp/dt = 0

We also know that at the point where the price is $7, p = 7 and x satisfies:

   x² + p² = 2450

Substituting p = 7 into the demand function, we get:

  x² + 7²  = 2450

     x² = 2450 - 49x²

       x = 49

substitute x = 49, p = 7, and dp/dt = $0.10 into the differentiated demand function and solve for dx/dp

     2x * dx/dp + 2p * dp/dx = 0

The value of x for the given rectangle in which the perimeter of both the rectangle are equal is x = 15.

What about rectangle?

A rectangle is a four-sided plane figure with four right angles (90-degree angles) and opposite sides that are parallel and equal in length. In other words, it is a parallelogram with all angles being right angles. The two pairs of parallel sides of a rectangle are called the length and width (or height) respectively. The area of a rectangle is found by multiplying its length by its width, while its perimeter is found by adding up the lengths of all four sides. Rectangles are commonly used in mathematics, geometry, engineering, and architecture, among other fields.

Define perimeter of rectangle:

The perimeter of a rectangle is the total distance around the outside of the rectangle. It is the sum of the lengths of all four sides of the rectangle. If the length of the rectangle is denoted by "l" and the width (or height) is denoted by "w", then the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is:

⇒ Perimeter = 2(l + w)

According to the given information:

As, we know that the perimeter of the rectangle is sum of all side of the rectangle in which,

The perimeter of first rectangle is =   [tex]2(1.4x + 5x + 5.25)[/tex]

The perimeter of second rectangle is = [tex]2(4.25x + 3x - 7.5)[/tex]

It is given that perimeter of both the rectangle are equal so,

2(1.4x + 5x + 5.25) = 2(4.25x + 3x - 7.5)

2.8x + 10x + 10.5  = 8.5x + 6x - 15

By using the Pythagorean theorem we conclude that the rope net is about 40.31 feet long.

The Pythagorean Theorem is a fundamental theorem in mathematics that describes the relationship between the sides of a right triangle.

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this problem.

Let's consider the rope net as the hypotenuse of a right triangle, and the horizontal distance from the base of the platform to the starting point of the rope net as one leg of the triangle.

The other leg of the triangle is the vertical height of the platform.

Using the Pythagorean theorem, we have:

length of rope net = √(horizontal distance² + vertical height²)

Substituting the given values, we get:

length of rope net = √(35² + 20²)

= √(1225 + 400)

= √1625

= 40.31 feet (rounded to two decimal places)

The empirical probability that the student studied in E, B, and F is approximately 0.635.

The total number of students who studied abroad in the 2008-2009 school year is not given, so we cannot calculate the empirical probability directly. However, we can assume that the sample size is very large, and therefore the empirical probability of selecting a student who studied in each of the destinations listed is approximately equal to the relative frequency of students who studied in each of the destinations.

The total number of students who studied abroad in these 10 destinations is:

14,012 + 27,731 + 11,011 + 10,722 + 10,650 + 8,311 + 6,407 + 6,222 + 5,779 + 5,274 = 106,939

Therefore, the empirical probability of selecting a student who studied in E, B, and F is approximately:
