Ki Tae used 54 meters of fencing to construct a 6-sided outdoor dog pen. Two of the sides are each 15 meters long, while the remaining four sides are each 6 meters long.

Let's solve the problem step by step. We know that Ki Tae used a total of 54 meters of fencing to construct a 6-sided outdoor dog pen. Two of the sides have a length of 15 meters each.

Let's denote the length of the remaining four sides as "x."

Since the dog pen has six sides, we can set up an equation based on the total length of the fencing:

15 + 15 + x + x + x + x = 54

Simplifying the equation, we have:

30 + 4x = 54

Subtracting 30 from both sides, we get:

4x = 24

Dividing both sides by 4, we find:

x = 6

Therefore, each of the remaining four sides has a length of 6 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The focus of a parabola is a fixed point located inside the curve. It is equidistant from the vertex and the directrix.

The directrix is a line that is located outside the curve. As the directrix on the given graph is a vertical line, the parabola is horizontal (sideways). The directrix is located to the left of the focus, which means the parabola opens to the right.

The axis of symmetry is perpendicular to the directrix and passes through the focus. So the axis of symmetry in this case is y = -1.

The vertex is the turning point of the parabola. It is located on the axis of symmetry, and is halfway between the focus and the directrix. Therefore, the y-coordinate of the vertex is y = -1. Given the focus is (-1, -1) and the directrix is x = -5, the vertex is (-3, -1).

The standard equation of a sideways parabola is:

[tex]\boxed{(y-k)^2=4p(x-h)}[/tex]

where:

As the vertex is (-3, -1), then h = -3 and k = -1.

Use the formula for the focus to find the value of p:

[tex]\begin{aligned}(h+p, k)&=(-1,-1)\\(-3+p, -1)&=(-1, -1)\\\implies -3+p&=-1\\p&=2\end{aligned}[/tex]

To write an equation for the parabola based on the given focus and directrix, substitute the values of h, k and p into the standard equation :

[tex](y-(-1))^2=4(2)(x-(-3))[/tex]

[tex](y+1)^2=8(x+3)[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of the parabola is:

[tex]\boxed{(y+1)^2=8(x+3)}[/tex]

The equation of the parabola with focus (-1, -1) and directrix x = -5 is (x + 1)² = 16(y + 1).

The equation of a parabola with a focus at (-1, -1) and a directrix of x = -5 can be written in standard form as:

(x - h)² = 4p(y - k)

Where (h, k) represents the vertex of the parabola and p is the distance between the vertex and the focus (or directrix).

In this case, the x-coordinate of the focus (-1, -1) is h = -1, and the y-coordinate is k = -1. The directrix is a vertical line x = -5, which means the parabola opens to the right.

Step 1: Determine the value of p

The distance between the vertex and the directrix is given by the absolute difference of their x-coordinates. In this case, p = |-5 - (-1)| = |-5 + 1| = 4.

Step 2: Write the equation

Substituting the values into the standard form equation, we have:

(x - h)² = 4p(y - k)

(x - (-1))² = 4(4)(y - (-1))

(x + 1)² = 16(y + 1)

This year, the number of raffle tickets sold for a school's extracurricular activities fundraiser is 848. It is estimated that the number of raffle tickets sold will increase by 5% each year.

The total number of raffle tickets sold at the end of 9 years is approximately 9,818.  

To find the total number of raffle tickets sold at the end of 9 years, we need to calculate the number of tickets sold each year and sum them up.

Starting with the initial number of tickets sold, which is 848, we will increase this number by 5% each year for a total of 9 years.

Year 1: 848 + (5% of 848) = 848 + 42.4 = 890.4

Year 2: 890.4 + (5% of 890.4) = 890.4 + 44.52 = 934.92

Year 3: 934.92 + (5% of 934.92) = 934.92 + 46.746 = 981.666

Year 9: Ticket sales at the end of 9 years = Number of tickets sold in Year 8 + (5% of Year 8 sales)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by the graphs y = (x - 4)^3, the x-axis, x = 0, and x = 5 about the y-axis, we can use the method of cylindrical shells.

The formula for the volume of a solid obtained by rotating a region bounded by the graph of a function f(x), the x-axis, x = a, and x = b about the y-axis is given by:

V = 2π ∫[a, b] x * f(x) dx

In this case, the function f(x) = (x - 4)^3, and the bounds of integration are a = 0 and b = 5.

Substituting these values into the formula, we have:

V = 2π ∫[0, 5] x * (x - 4)^3 dx

To evaluate this integral, we can expand the cubic term and then integrate:

V = 2π ∫[0, 5] x * (x^3 - 12x^2 + 48x - 64) dx

V = 2π ∫[0, 5] (x^4 - 12x^3 + 48x^2 - 64x) dx

Integrating each term separately:

V = 2π [1/5 x^5 - 3x^4 + 16x^3 - 32x^2] evaluated from 0 to 5

Now we can substitute the bounds of integration:

V = 2π [(1/5 * 5^5 - 3 * 5^4 + 16 * 5^3 - 32 * 5^2) - (1/5 * 0^5 - 3 * 0^4 + 16 * 0^3 - 32 * 0^2)]

Simplifying:

V = 2π [(1/5 * 3125) - 0]

V = 2π * (625/5)

V = 2π * 125

V = 250π

Therefore, the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by the graphs y = (x - 4)^3, the x-axis, x = 0, and x = 5 about the y-axis is 250π cubic units.

Brianna will owe $23,249.33 on her new vehicle after applying the down payment and taking advantage of the 33% off sale.

We need to follow these steps:

Calculate the discount on the Silverado:

Discount = 33% of $57,999

Discount = 0.33 * $57,999

Discount = $19,079.67

Subtract the discount from the original price of the Silverado:

Price after discount = $57,999 - $19,079.67

Price after discount = $38,919.33

Subtract Brianna's down payment from the price after discount:

Amount owed = Price after discount - Down payment

Amount owed = $38,919.33 - $15,670

Step-by-step explanation:

If the hyperbola models the comet's path, and the sun is located at one of its foci, the closest distance the comet reaches to the sun is the distance between a vertex and its corresponding focus.

Therefore, we need to find the vertices and foci of the given hyperbola.

Given equation:

[tex]\dfrac{x^2}{60516}-\dfrac{y^2}{107584}=1[/tex]

As the x²-term of the given equation is positive, the hyperbola is horizontal (opening left and right).

The general formula for a horizontal hyperbola (opening left and right) is:

[tex]\boxed{\begin{minipage}{7.4 cm}\underline{Standard equation of a horizontal hyperbola}\\\\$\dfrac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}-\dfrac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1$\\\\where:\\\phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $(h,k)$ is the center.\\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $(h\pm a, k)$ are the vertices.\\\phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $(h\pm c, k)$ are the foci where $c^2=a^2+b^2.$\\\phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $y=\pm \dfrac{b}{a}(x-h)+k$ are the asymptotes.\\\end{minipage}}[/tex]

Comparing the given equation with the standard equation:

To find the loci, we first need to find the value of c:

[tex]\begin{aligned}c^2&=a^2+b^2\\c^2&=60516 +107584\\c^2&=168100\\c&=410\end{aligned}[/tex]

The formula for the loci is (h±c, k). Therefore:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\textsf{Loci}&=(h \pm c, k)\\&=(0 \pm 410, 0)\\&=(-410,0)\;\;\textsf{and}\;\;(410,0)\end{aligned}[/tex]

The formula for the vertices is (h±a, k). Therefore:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\textsf{Vertices}&=(h \pm a, k)\\&=(0 \pm 246, 0)\\&=(-246,0)\;\;\textsf{and}\;\;(246,0)\end{aligned}[/tex]

From the given diagram, the vertex and focus have positive x-values. Therefore, the vertex is (246, 0) and the focus is (410, 0).

We need to find the distance between (246, 0) and (410, 0). To do this, simply subtract the x-value of the vertex from the x-value of the focus:

[tex]410-246=164[/tex]

Therefore, the closest distance the comet reaches to the sun is 164 million km.

To find the focus of the parabola defined by the equation (y - 3)² = -8(x - 2), we can compare it with the standard form of a parabolic equation: (y - k)² = 4a(x - h).

In the given equation, we have:

(y - 3)² = -8(x - 2)

Comparing it with the standard form, we can determine the values of h, k, and a:

h = 2

k = 3

4a = -8

Solving for a, we get:

4a = -8

a = -8/4

a = -2

Therefore, the vertex of the parabola is (h, k) = (2, 3), and the value of 'a' is -2.

The focus of the parabola can be found using the formula:

F = (h + a, k)

Substituting the values, we get:

F = (2 + (-2), 3)

F = (0, 3)

Therefore, the focus of the parabola defined by the equation (y - 3)² = -8(x - 2) is at the point (0, 3).

Answer:

Focus = (0, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The focus is a fixed point located inside the curve of the parabola.

To find the focus of the given parabola, we first need to find the vertex (h, k) and the focal length "p".

The standard equation for a sideways parabola is:

[tex]\boxed{(y-k)^2=4p(x-h)}[/tex]

where:

If p > 0, the parabola opens to the right, and if p < 0, the parabola opens to the left.

Given equation:

[tex](y-3)^2=-8(x-2)[/tex]

Compare the given equation to the standard equation to determine the values of h, k and p:

The formula for the focus is (h+p, k).

Substituting the values of h, p and k into the formula, we get:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\textsf{Focus}&=(h+p,k)\\&=(2-2,3)\\&=(0,3)\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the focus of the parabola is (0, 3).

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine which option will yield the most money after three years, let's calculate the final amount for each option.

Option #1 - CD for 3 years:

Principal (initial investment) = $1000

Interest rate = 3% per year (compounded monthly)

No additional money can be added

To calculate the final amount, we can use the formula for compound interest:

A = P * (1 + r/n)^(n*t)

Where:

A = Final amount

P = Principal (initial investment)

r = Interest rate (as a decimal)

n = Number of times the interest is compounded per year

t = Number of years

For Option #1:

P = $1000

r = 3% = 0.03 (as a decimal)

n = 12 (compounded monthly)

t = 3 years

A = $1000 * (1 + 0.03/12)^(12*3)

Calculating the final amount for Option #1, we get:

A = $1000 * (1 + 0.0025)^(36)

A ≈ $1000 * (1.0025)^(36)

A ≈ $1000 * 1.0916768

A ≈ $1091.68

Option #2 - CD for 1 year:

Principal (initial investment) = $1000

Interest rate = 2% per year (compounded quarterly)

Money can be added at the end of each year

To calculate the final amount, we need to consider the annual additions and compounding at the end of each year.

First Year:

P = $1000

r = 2% = 0.02 (as a decimal)

n = 4 (compounded quarterly)

t = 1 year

A = $1000 * (1 + 0.02/4)^(4*1)

A ≈ $1000 * (1.005)^(4)

A ≈ $1000 * 1.0202

A ≈ $1020.20

At the end of the first year, the total amount is $1020.20.

Second Year:

Now we add an additional $60 to the previous amount:

P = $1020.20 + $60 = $1080.20

r = 2% = 0.02 (as a decimal)

n = 4 (compounded quarterly)

t = 1 year

A = $1080.20 * (1 + 0.02/4)^(4*1)

A ≈ $1080.20 * (1.005)^(4)

A ≈ $1080.20 * 1.0202

A ≈ $1101.59

At the end of the second year, the total amount is $1101.59.

Third Year:

Again, we add $60 to the previous amount:

P = $1101.59 + $60 = $1161.59

r = 2% = 0.02 (as a decimal)

n = 4 (compounded quarterly)

t = 1 year

A = $1161.59 * (1 + 0.02/4)^(4*1)

A ≈ $1161.59 * (1.005)^(4)

A ≈ $1161.59 * 1.0202

A ≈ $1185.39

At the end of the third year, the total amount is $1185.39.

Comparing the final amounts:

Option #1: $1091.68

Option #2: $1185.39

Therefore, Option #2 - CD for 1 year with an interest rate of 2% compounded quarterly and the ability to add money at the end of each year will yield the most money after three years.

Answer:

Hope this helps and have a nice day

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x, we can use the formula:

Time = Distance / Speed

Let's calculate the time taken to travel from Q to P and back to Q.

From Q to P:

Distance = 12 km

Speed = 6 km/h

Time taken from Q to P = Distance / Speed = 12 km / 6 km/h = 2 hours

From P to Q:

Distance = 12 km

Speed = (6 + x) km/h

Time taken from P to Q = Distance / Speed = 12 km / (6 + x) km/h

Given that the total time taken for the round trip is 3 hours 20 minutes, we can convert it to hours:

Total time = 3 hours + (20 minutes / 60) hours = 3 + (1/3) hours = 10/3 hours

According to the problem, the total time is the sum of the time from Q to P and from P to Q:

Total time = Time taken from Q to P + Time taken from P to Q

Substituting the values:

10/3 hours = 2 hours + 12 km / (6 + x) km/h

Simplifying the equation:

10/3 = 2 + 12 / (6 + x)

Multiply both sides by (6 + x) to eliminate the denominator:

10(6 + x) = 2(6 + x) + 12

60 + 10x = 12 + 2x + 12

Collecting like terms:

8x = 24

Dividing both sides by 8:

x = 3

Therefore, the value of x is 3.

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

speed  = distance / time

time = distance / speed

Total time from P to Q to P:

T = 3h 20min

P to Q :

s = 6 km/h

d = 12 km

t = d/s

= 12/6

t = 2 h

time remaining t₁ = T - t

= 3h 20min - 2h

=  1 hr 20 min

= 60 + 20 min

= 80 min

t₁ = 80/60 hr

Q to P:

d₁ = 12km

t₁ = 80/60 hr

s₁ = d/t₁

[tex]= \frac{12}{\frac{80}{60} }\\ \\= \frac{12*60}{80}[/tex]

= 9

s₁ = 9 km/h

From question, s₁ = (6 + x)km/h

⇒ 6 + x = 9

⇒ x = 3

Conditional probability, denoted as P(A|B), represents the probability of event A occurring given that event B has occurred. If events A and B are independent, P(A|B) = P(A) and P(B|A) = P(B).

The notation P(A|B) reads the probability of Event (A occurring given that Event B has occurred). If two events are independent, then the probability of one event occurring (does not affect the probability of the other event occurring). Events A and B are independent if (P(A|B) = P(A), P(B|A) = P(B), P(A|B) = P(B|A)).

To understand the relationship between conditional probability and independent events, let's consider two events A and B. The conditional probability P(A|B) represents the probability of event A occurring given that event B has already occurred. It measures the likelihood of event A happening under the condition that event B has already taken place.

On the other hand, if two events A and B are independent, it means that the occurrence or non-occurrence of one event has no effect on the probability of the other event happening. In other words, the probability of event A happening is not influenced by the occurrence or non-occurrence of event B, and vice versa.

Mathematically, if events A and B are independent, it implies that P(A|B) = P(A) and P(B|A) = P(B). This means that the probability of event A occurring is the same whether or not event B has occurred, and the probability of event B occurring is the same whether or not event A has occurred.

Therefore, the concepts of conditional probability and independent events are related in the sense that if two events are independent, the conditional probabilities P(A|B) and P(B|A) become equal to the unconditional probabilities P(A) and P(B) respectively.

A) [tex]y-7=\frac{3}{4}(x+1)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-7=\frac{3}{4}(x-(-1))\\y-7=\frac{3}{4}(x+1)[/tex]

Parallel lines must have the same slope, and then plugging in [tex](x_1,y_1)=(-1,7)[/tex], we easily get our equation.

Answer:

the equation in point-slope form for the line parallel to y = (3/4)x - 4 that passes through (-1, 7) is 3x - 4y = -31.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of a line parallel to another line, we need to use the same slope. The given line has a slope of 3/4.

Using the point-slope form of a line, which is given by:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

where (x₁, y₁) represents the coordinates of a point on the line, and m represents the slope of the line, we can substitute the values (-1, 7) for (x₁, y₁) and 3/4 for m:

y - 7 = (3/4)(x - (-1))

Simplifying further:

y - 7 = (3/4)(x + 1)

Multiplying through by 4 to eliminate the fraction:

4(y - 7) = 3(x + 1)

Expanding:

4y - 28 = 3x + 3

Rearranging the equation to put it in standard form:

3x - 4y = -31

So, the equation in point-slope form for the line parallel to y = (3/4)x - 4 that passes through (-1, 7) is 3x - 4y = -31.

The original dimensions of the piece of metal were 15 inches by 20 inches.

To solve this problem, we can use the given information to set up an equation. Let's assume that the width of the rectangular piece of metal is x inches. According to the problem, the length of the piece of metal is 5 inches longer than its width, so the length would be (x+5) inches.

When squares with sides 1 inch long are cut from the four corners, the width and length of the resulting box will be reduced by 2 inches each. Therefore, the width of the box will be (x-2) inches and the length will be ((x+5)-2) inches, which simplifies to (x+3) inches.

The height of the box will be 1 inch since the flaps are folded upward.
Now, let's calculate the volume of the box using the formula Volume = length * width * height.

Substituting the values, we have:

234 = (x+3)(x-2)(1)

Simplifying the equation, we get:

234 = x^2 + x - 6

Rearranging the equation, we have:

x^2 + x - 240 = 0

Now, we can solve this quadratic equation either by factoring or by using the quadratic formula. Let's use factoring to find the values of x.

Factoring the equation, we have:
(x+16)(x-15) = 0
Setting each factor equal to zero, we get:
x+16 = 0 or x-15 = 0
Solving for x, we have:
x = -16 or x = 15
Since the width cannot be negative, we take x = 15 as the valid solution.
Therefore, the original dimensions of the piece of metal were 15 inches in width and (15+5) = 20 inches in length.

Julio bought clothes for $5000 with a 20% down payment, which amounts to $1000. Hence, he ends up paying $4000 for the clothes.

Julio's clothing purchase involved a total cost of $5000. To secure the purchase, he made a down payment of 20% of the total cost. To calculate the down payment, we multiply the total cost by the down payment percentage:

Down payment = 20% * $5000

Down payment = 0.20 * $5000

Down payment = $1000

The down payment amount is $1000. To determine the final amount that Julio ends up paying for the clothes, we need to subtract the down payment from the total cost:

Total cost - Down payment = $5000 - $1000

Total cost - Down payment = $4000

Therefore, Julio ends up paying $4000 for the clothes.

The question probable may be:

Julio bought clothes for a cost of $5000, for which he left a 20% down payment. How much money does he end up paying for the clothes?

Answer:

To find the average speed of the truck, we can divide the total distance travelled by the total time taken.

Average speed = Total distance / Total time

In this case, the truck travelled 261 miles in 4 hours.

Average speed = 261 miles / 4 hours

Average speed = 65.25 mph (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, the truck was averaging approximately 65 mph on this trip.

The correct option is (a) 65 mph.
