Linear-equations/481605: Parallel to y=3x+5 and passes through (10,4) needs to be in y=mx+b form Thank you! 1 solutions Answer 329739 by jim_thompson5910(28598)   on 2011-08-14 18:24:26 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hint: Parallel lines have equal slopes. So because slope of given line is 3, this means that m=3 for the unknown parallel line. Also, the line needs to pass through (10,4). So when x=10, then y=4. We have 3 pieces of info: m=3, x=10, and y=4. Plug all this into y=mx+b to get 4 = 3(10)+b and now solve for b. The answer will be y = 3x+b where 'b' is the answer you got above.

Polynomials-and-rational-expressions/481600: I am having a hard time finding the GCF of 8x^2, -4x, and -20. I understand that the GCF of 8, 4 and 20 is 4 but I am not sure what to do with the letter x or the exponent of 2. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 1 solutions Answer 329735 by jim_thompson5910(28598)   on 2011-08-14 18:17:54 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! You can factor into x*x You can't factor 'x' any further (in the term -4x). So the GCF between and is because they both have an 'x' in common. However, there are no 'x' terms in -20. So this means that the GCF of the variable terms is not 'x'. This then means that the GCF of , and -20 is 1 (since and ), but this is a trivial factor. So we can ignore it. Therefore, the GCF of 8x^2, -4x, and -20 is 4

Linear-systems/481201: 135x^2-222x+91 I have to factor this problem. 1 solutions Answer 329600 by jim_thompson5910(28598)   on 2011-08-13 21:30:24 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Looking at the expression , we can see that the first coefficient is , the second coefficient is , and the last term is . Now multiply the first coefficient by the last term to get . Now the question is: what two whole numbers multiply to (the previous product) and add to the second coefficient ? To find these two numbers, we need to list all of the factors of (the previous product). Factors of : 1,3,5,7,9,13,15,21,27,35,39,45,63,65,91,105,117,135,189,195,273,315,351,455,585,819,945,1365,1755,2457,4095,12285 -1,-3,-5,-7,-9,-13,-15,-21,-27,-35,-39,-45,-63,-65,-91,-105,-117,-135,-189,-195,-273,-315,-351,-455,-585,-819,-945,-1365,-1755,-2457,-4095,-12285 Note: list the negative of each factor. This will allow us to find all possible combinations. These factors pair up and multiply to . 1*12285 = 12285 3*4095 = 12285 5*2457 = 12285 7*1755 = 12285 9*1365 = 12285 13*945 = 12285 15*819 = 12285 21*585 = 12285 27*455 = 12285 35*351 = 12285 39*315 = 12285 45*273 = 12285 63*195 = 12285 65*189 = 12285 91*135 = 12285 105*117 = 12285 (-1)*(-12285) = 12285 (-3)*(-4095) = 12285 (-5)*(-2457) = 12285 (-7)*(-1755) = 12285 (-9)*(-1365) = 12285 (-13)*(-945) = 12285 (-15)*(-819) = 12285 (-21)*(-585) = 12285 (-27)*(-455) = 12285 (-35)*(-351) = 12285 (-39)*(-315) = 12285 (-45)*(-273) = 12285 (-63)*(-195) = 12285 (-65)*(-189) = 12285 (-91)*(-135) = 12285 (-105)*(-117) = 12285 Now let's add up each pair of factors to see if one pair adds to the middle coefficient : First Number Second Number Sum 1 12285 1+12285=12286 3 4095 3+4095=4098 5 2457 5+2457=2462 7 1755 7+1755=1762 9 1365 9+1365=1374 13 945 13+945=958 15 819 15+819=834 21 585 21+585=606 27 455 27+455=482 35 351 35+351=386 39 315 39+315=354 45 273 45+273=318 63 195 63+195=258 65 189 65+189=254 91 135 91+135=226 105 117 105+117=222 -1 -12285 -1+(-12285)=-12286 -3 -4095 -3+(-4095)=-4098 -5 -2457 -5+(-2457)=-2462 -7 -1755 -7+(-1755)=-1762 -9 -1365 -9+(-1365)=-1374 -13 -945 -13+(-945)=-958 -15 -819 -15+(-819)=-834 -21 -585 -21+(-585)=-606 -27 -455 -27+(-455)=-482 -35 -351 -35+(-351)=-386 -39 -315 -39+(-315)=-354 -45 -273 -45+(-273)=-318 -63 -195 -63+(-195)=-258 -65 -189 -65+(-189)=-254 -91 -135 -91+(-135)=-226 -105 -117 -105+(-117)=-222 From the table, we can see that the two numbers and add to (the middle coefficient). So the two numbers and both multiply to and add to Now replace the middle term with . Remember, and add to . So this shows us that . Replace the second term with . Group the terms into two pairs. Factor out the GCF from the first group. Factor out from the second group. The goal of this step is to make the terms in the second parenthesis equal to the terms in the first parenthesis. Combine like terms. Or factor out the common term =============================================================== Answer: So factors to . In other words, . Note: you can check the answer by expanding to get or by graphing the original expression and the answer (the two graphs should be identical).

Probability-and-statistics/477232: Find the range, standard deviation, and variance for the following sample data: 33, 55, 29, 40, 43, 8, 90, 61, 41, 17, 80, 56, 17, 59, 21, 78 Thank you 1 solutions Answer 327145 by jim_thompson5910(28598)   on 2011-08-02 18:38:51 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Range = Largest Value - Smallest Value Range = 90 - 8 Range = 82 ========================================================================= Finding the sample variance and sample standard deviation: First, we need to find the sample mean xbar xbar = (33+55+29+40+43+8+90+61+41+17+80+56+17+59+21+78)/16 = 728/16 = 45.5 So the sample mean is xbar = 45.5 -------------------------- Now subtract the sample mean from EVERY data value: 33-45.5 = -12.5 55-45.5 = 9.5 29-45.5 = -16.5 40-45.5 = -5.5 43-45.5 = -2.5 8-45.5 = -37.5 90-45.5 = 44.5 61-45.5 = 15.5 41-45.5 = -4.5 17-45.5 = -28.5 80-45.5 = 34.5 56-45.5 = 10.5 17-45.5 = -28.5 59-45.5 = 13.5 21-45.5 = -24.5 78-45.5 = 32.5 So the differences are: -12.5, 9.5, -16.5, -5.5, -2.5, -37.5, 44.5, 15.5, -4.5, -28.5, 34.5, 10.5, -28.5, 13.5, -24.5, 32.5 Now square each difference: (-12.5)^2 = 156.25 (9.5)^2 = 90.25 (-16.5)^2 = 272.25 (-5.5)^2 = 30.25 (-2.5)^2 = 6.25 (-37.5)^2 = 1406.25 (44.5)^2 = 1980.25 (15.5)^2 = 240.25 (-4.5)^2 = 20.25 (-28.5)^2 = 812.25 (34.5)^2 = 1190.25 (10.5)^2 = 110.25 (-28.5)^2 = 812.25 (13.5)^2 = 182.25 (-24.5)^2 = 600.25 (32.5)^2 = 1056.25 Now add up each square: 156.25+90.25+272.25+30.25+6.25+1406.25+1980.25+240.25+20.25+812.25+1190.25+110.25+812.25+182.25+600.25+1056.25 = 8966 Now divide that sum by n-1 = 16-1 = 15 to get 8966/15 = 597.733333333333 So the sample variance is 597.733333333333 Finally, take the square root of 597.733333333333 to get 24.448585507823 So the sample standard deviation is 24.448585507823

Rectangles/477221: please help me solve this question... a pool has two pumps. Pump A empties the pool in 4 hours. Pump B empties the pool in 12 hours. How long will it take to empty the pool if both pumps are working together? thanks so much i think the answer is 3?...i divided 3 into 12..not sure if thats correct 1 solutions Answer 327125 by jim_thompson5910(28598)   on 2011-08-02 17:52:22 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Rate of pump A: 1/4 of a pool per hour Rate of pump B: 1/12 of a pool per hour Combined rate: 1/4+1/12 = 3/12+1/12 = 4/12 = 1/3 So if they work together, the two pumps have a combined rate of 1/3 of a pool per hour (ie in one hour, the two pumps will empty 1/3 of the pool) But we want to empty ONE pool (not 1/3 of one). So we need to multiply 1/3 by some number x to get 1. So Now solve for x So it will take the two pumps 3 hours to empty the pool.

Rectangles/477211: please help me solve this question... a rectangle has a width of 8cm and length of 14cm what would be the perimeter if it increases by 50 percent?.. i tried to add all sides and got 44...do i multiply by 0.50? I'm confused...thanks so much 1 solutions Answer 327122 by jim_thompson5910(28598)   on 2011-08-02 17:46:57 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! "increases by 50 percent" means you add half of it to the original value. Or put another way, you multiply it by 1.5 (since 100%+50% = 150% = 1.5) So in your case, increasing 44 by 50% is increasing it to 44+22 = 66 (note: 22 is half or 50% of 44) Or... Multiply 44 by 1.5 to get 44*1.5 = 66, which is the same answer.
