A video game designer places an anthill at the origin of a coordinate plane. A red ant leaves the anthill and moves along a stra

ight line to (1, 1), while a black ant leaves the anthill and moves along a straight line to (−1, −1). Next, the red ant moves to (2, 2), while the black ant moves to (−2, −2). Then the red ant moves to (3, 3), while the black ant moves to (−3, −3), and so on. Complete the explanation of why the red ant and the black ant are always the same distance from the anthill. At any given moment, the red ant's coordinates may be written as (a, a) where a > 0. The red ant's distance from the anthill is (blank) . The black ant's coordinates may be written as (−a, −a) and the black ant's distance from the anthill is (blank) . This shows that at any given moment, both ants are (blank) units from the anthill.

Sketch the region bounded by the curves y=3x3, x+y=4, and y=0. Find the coordinates of the centroid.
AnnZ [9099]
The attached graph illustrates the region. The centroid's coordinates are (5/3, 1). The centroid's coordinates are determined by averaging the coordinates of the area; Oₓ = (Aₓ+Bₓ+Cₓ)/3 = (0+1+4)/3 = 5/3 and O(y) = (A(y) + B(y) + C(y)) = (0+3+0)/3=3/3=1.

A)
4(q - 10) = 76..... Tim earned 4 points for each correct answer, totaling 76 points. He got 10 answers right less than the total number of questions on the test.

b)
q = 10 + 76/4
q = 29

Thus, the overall number of questions on Tim's math test amounted to 29.

A photocopy machine can reduce copies to 80% of their original size. By copying an already reduced copy, further reductions can
PIT_PIT [9117]

Part a) When a page is scaled down to 80%, how much enlargement is necessary to bring it back to its original size?

Let

x---------> the percent enlargement

Given the original size is 100%

This means:

x*80%=100%

x=(100%/80%)

x=1.25--------> 1.25=(125/100)=125%

Thus,

The answer to Part a) is

The percent enlargement required is 125%

Part b) Estimate how many successive copies of a page are needed to make the final copy less than 15% of its original size.

Since the photocopy machine reduces sizes to 80% of the original

Therefore:

Copy N 1

0.80*100%=80%

Copy N 2

0.80*80%=64%

Copy N 3

0.80*64%=51.2%

Copy N 4

0.80*51.2%=40.96%

Copy N 5

0.80*40.96%=32.77%

Copy N 6

0.80*32.77%=26.21%

Copy N 7

0.80*26.21%=20.97%

Copy N 8

0.80*20.97%=16.78%

Copy N 9

0.80*16.78%=13.42%-------------> 13.42% < 15%

Therefore,

The answer to Part b) is

The necessary number of copies to achieve this is 9

A photographer sells large photos for $27 profit and small photos for an $11 profit.This past year,she sold 126 photos and made
Leona [9271]

Answer:

The photographer sold 72 small photos and 54 large photos.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can create a system of equations based on the details provided. Let X represent small photos and Z represent large photos.

It is given that the total number of photos sold is 126:

X + Z = 126

Additionally, she generated $2,250 from selling specific amounts of small and large photos, stated as:

$2,250 = $11X + $27Z

From the first equation, we know X=126-Z. Substituting this into the second equation gives:

2,250 = 11(126-Z) + 27Z

2,250 = 1,386 - 11Z + 27Z

2,250 - 1,386 = 16Z

864 = 16Z

Z = 864/16

Z = 54, which indicates the number of large photos sold. To find X:

X = 126 - Z

X = 126 - 54

X = 72, representing the small photos sold.

Leona [9271]
Lacking information on the proportion, we will assume the sample proportion is 0.50

thus,
p = 0.50
The margin of error is set at 10 percentage points. This indicates that the error on either side of the population proportion is 5%, so E = 0.05
z = 1.645 (Z value for a confidence level of 90%)

The calculation for the margin of error when estimating population proportions follows:

E=z* \sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} } \\ \\ &#10; \frac{E}{z} = \sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} } \\ \\ &#10;( \frac{E}{z} )^{2}= \frac{p(1-p)}{n} \\ \\ &#10;n= p(1-p)* (\frac{z}{E})^{2} \\ \\ &#10;n=271

Consequently, 271 students need to be part of the sample.
