Mathematics

Answer:

A tangent touches the curve at a single point, while a chord meets the curve at multiple points.

Step-by-step explanation:

A tangent line makes contact with the curve while a chord intersects it.

Only the tangent intersects the curve at a solitary point, unlike the chord, which contacts the curve at several points.

In the diagram provided, line BD acts as a tangent, whereas line BC serves as a chord.

As a smart consumer, you are always on the lookout for sales, coupons, and rebates. While shopping for new clothes, you notice t
Inessa [9000]

Answer:

You need to purchase 3 shirts to be able to use your coupon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each shirt originally costs $17.99.

There is a 20% discount on this specific brand of shirts.

$17.99 × 0.2 = $3.60 (discount per shirt)

Subtracting the discount from the original price:

$17.99 - $3.60 = $14.39 (price per shirt after discount)

To qualify for the $10 off coupon which requires a $40 minimum purchase:

$40 ÷ $14.39 ≈ 2.779, rounded up to 3 shirts

Therefore, you must buy 3 shirts.

3 shirts × $14.39 = $43.17, surpassing the $40 minimum needed to apply the $10 discount.

The expense for acquiring 100 shares of ODX group Inc and 300 shares of peer Comms Lts is

         C  =  \$ 775

Step-by-step explanation:

   From the chat, the expense for 100 shares of ODX is \$175

    The price of 100 shares of peer Comms Lts is \$ 200

Thus, the cost for 300 shares of peer Comms Lts amounts to k  =  3 * 200 =  \$ 600

Overall, the total cost for 100 shares of ODX group Inc and 300 shares of peer Comms Lts can be calculated as

           C  =  175 + 600

           C  =  \$ 775

Both sets of values have an average of 13. Is Set A's standard deviation smaller, larger, or about the same as Set B's? (Note: T
babunello [8412]
Set A's standard deviation exceeds that of Set B. To explain, standard deviation reflects variation within data sets. Generally, a dataset with a narrower range will exhibit a smaller standard deviation. For Set A, the range is 25-1 = 24, while for Set B, it's 18-8 = 10. Given that Set A's range is bigger, we would anticipate its standard deviation to also be larger. Standard deviation is calculated as the square root of the average of the squared deviations from the mean. In Set A, the deviations are ±12, ±11, ±10, whereas Set B's deviations are ±5, ±3, ±1. We can reasonably conclude that the value for Set A will be greater without computing the RMS difference. Thus, Set A's standard deviation is larger compared to Set B.

You have a stack of pennies without counting the pennies, how can you know if there is a odd or even number of them
Zina [9171]

Imagine having a pile of pennies and you want to determine if the count is odd or even without tallying them one by one. You can separate them into pairs by placing one coin in the left pile and one in the right.

If no coin is left unmatched, then the total number is even; if there is one coin remaining unpaired, the number is odd.
