The values of a and b of the exponential function are 10000 and 0.6 respectively

We are given that the exponential function is expressed in general form as; f(x) = abˣ

where;

a is a non-zero real number called the initial value

b is any positive real number such that

b ≠ 1.

The domain of f is all real numbers.

The range of f is all positive real numbers if a > 0.

The range of f is all negative real numbers if a < 0.

The y-intercept is (0, a)

The horizontal asymptote is; y = 0.

We are told that this exponential function passes through the coordinate points (0, 10000) and (3, 2160).

At coordinate point (0, 10000), we have;

10000 = ab⁰

a = 10000

Now, at the coordinate point (3, 2160), we have;

2160 = 10000(b)³

2160/10000 = b³

0.216 = b³

b = ∛0.216

b = 0.6

Thus, we can conclude that the values of a and b of the given exponential function are respectively 10000 and 0.6.

Answer:

305.25

Step-by-step explanation:

18.5 for one floor, multiply by 15 to get the amount for 15 floors: 18.5*15 = 277.5 sheets

We need to add 10% for waste, meaning 277.5 plus the waste: 1.1*277.5 = 305.25

The drywaller needs to order 306 core boards for the 15-story elevator shaft, considering the 10% waste.

calculate the number of core boards needed for the 15-story elevator shaft, we can follow these

Calculate the total number of sheets for all floors:

Total sheets = Number of floors × Sheets per floor

Total sheets = 15 floors × 18.5 sheets per floor

Total sheets = 277.5 sheets

Add 10% of the total for waste:

Waste percentage = 10% = 0.10 (in decimal form)

Waste sheets = Total sheets × Waste percentage

Waste sheets = 277.5 sheets × 0.10

Waste sheets = 27.75 sheets

Calculate the final number of boards needed (including waste):

Number of boards = Total sheets + Waste sheets

Number of boards = 277.5 sheets + 27.75 sheets

Number of boards = 305.25 sheets

Since you can't have a fraction of a sheet, we need to round up to the nearest whole number.

Therefore, the drywaller needs to order 306 core boards for the 15-story elevator shaft, considering the 10% waste.

Answer:

87.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Area of triangle NCM

⇒ 1/2 × base × height

⇒ 1/2 × CN × CM

⇒ 1/2 × 5 × 4

⇒ 10cm²

Length of rectangle ⇒ 10

Breadth of the rectangle ⇒ 8

↓

Area of rectangle ⇒ Length × Breadth

Area of rectangle ⇒ 10 × 8 = 80cm²

Area of shaded region ⇒ Area of rectangle  -  Area of triangle

Area of shaded region ⇒ 80 - 10 = 80cm²

Percentage of the shaded region = Shaded/complete rectangle × 100

⇒ 70/80 × 100 = 87.5

⇒ The percent of the area of the rectangle shaded is therefore 87.5%.

The monthly payments for this add on interest loan are of $164.71.

Given Information and Formula Used

It is given that for an add on interest loan,

Principal Amount, p = $8,276.17

Annual Interest Rate, r = 5.7%

Term of the loan, T = 5.5 years

The formula for simple interest is given as follows,

I = (p)(r)(t)/100 ............... (1)

The formula for total amount of add on interest is given by,

A = p + I ....................... (2)

Computing the Interest

Substitute the given values of p, r, and t in the formula (1) of interest to get,

I = (8276.17)(5.7)(5.5)/100

I = 259457.9295/100

I = $2,594.58

Computing the Monthly Payment for Add-on Interest Loan

Substituting the values of p and I in the formula (2), we obtain the total amount as,

A = $ (8276.17 + 2594.58)

A = $ 10,870.75

Monthly payment for the add on interest loan = A/t(in months)

=  $ (10,870.75/66)

= $164.71

Therefore, monthly payments of $164.71 are to be made for the add on interest loan.

The area of the interior above the polar axis is -0.858 square units

The area bounded by a polar curve between θ = θ₁ and θ = θ₂ is given by

[tex]A = \int\limits^{\theta_{2} }_{\theta_{1} } {\frac{1}{2}r^{2} } \, d\theta[/tex]

Now, since we have the curve r = 1 - sinθ and we want to find the area of the interior above the polar axis, we integrate from θ = 0 to θ = π, since this is the region above the polar axis.

So, [tex]A = \int\limits^{\theta_{2} }_{\theta_{1} } {\frac{1}{2}r^{2} } \, d\theta\\= \int\limits^{\pi}_{0} {\frac{1}{2}(1 - sin\theta)^{2} } \, d\theta\\= \int\limits^{\pi}_{0} {\frac{1}{2}[1 - 2sin\theta + (sin\theta)^{2}] } \, d\theta\\= \int\limits^{\pi}_{0} {\frac{1}{2}\, d\theta - \int\limits^{\pi}_{0} 2sin\theta \, d\theta+ \int\limits^{\pi}_{0} (sin\theta)^{2} } \, d\theta\\[/tex]

The piece-wise linear functions can be written as follows:

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

For x equal or less than -2, the line passes through (-3,-3) and (-2,-2), hence the rule is:

[tex]f(x) = x, x \leq -2[/tex].

For x greater than -2 up to 1, the y-intercept is of -7, and the line also passes through (1,-8), hence the rule is:

[tex]f(x) = -x - 7, -2 < x \leq 1[/tex].

For x greater than 1, the function goes through (2,-5) and (3,-3), hence the slope is:

It is to be noted that the determination of whether or not there is a significant difference between the two groups will be done using a t test.

A t-test is a statistical test that juxtaposes two samples' means. It is used in hypothesis testing, using a null hypothesis that the variance in group means is zero and an alternative hypothesis that the difference is not zero.

The conditions to use the t test are:

The degrees of freedom (k) to be utilized for this text will be derived using the conservative method given below:

df = [(s₁²/n₁) + (s₂²/n²)/[((s₁²/n₁)²/((n₁-1)) + (s₂²/n₂)²/((n₂-1))]

= [(3.0952/15) + (6.4095/15)]² / [((3.0952/15)²/14) + ((6.4095/15)²/14)]

= 24.965

Hence,

df ≈ 24 (if approximated to the floor)

Recall the the standard deviation of the population are unequal and unknown. This thus requires that we utilize the two-sample unpooled t-test.

Here, H₀ is given as;

[tex]t = \frac{\bar{x_{1} -\bar{x_{2}}}}{\sqrt{\frac{s_{1}^{2} }{n_{1} } + \frac{S_{2}^{2} }{n_{2}} } } \sim t_{df}[/tex]

t = [(3.33333 - 4.13333)]/√[(3.0952/15) + (6.4095/15)]

= - 0.8/√0.6337

t = - 1.005

The 95% confidence interval is computed using the following formula:

[tex](\bar x_{2} - \bar x_{1}) \pm t_\alpha_/_2_,_df \left({\sqrt{\frac{S_{1}^{2} }{n_{1} } + \frac{S_{2}^{2} }{n_{2}} } } \right)[/tex]

= - 0.8 ± 2.064 (√0.6337)

= -2.4429, 0.8429

To derive the 90% interval, we state:

[tex](\bar x_{2} - \bar x_{1}) \pm t_\alpha_/_2_,_df \left({\sqrt{\frac{S_{1}^{2} }{n_{1} } + \frac{S_{2}^{2} }{n_{2}} } } \right)[/tex]

= - 0.8 ± 0.685 (√0.6337)

= -2.162, 0.562

From the intervals computed, we must fail to reject H₀

Herein we must construct at least a polynomial that satisfies all conditions described in the statement. According to the fundamental theorem of algebra, quartic functions may have no real roots, two real roots or four real roots, which means that one of the roots must have a multiplicity of 2.

The root with a multiplicity of 2 is x = 3 and both x = - 4 and x = - 2 have only a multiplicity of 1, then we have the following expression by using the factor form of the definition of polynomials:

f(x) = (x - 3)² · (x + 4) · (x + 2)

A regular polygon is any 2-D shape where all the sides and angles are congruent.

Regular Hexagon

As denoted by the prefix "hexa-", hexagons have 6 sides and internal angles. The perimeter is equal to all 6 sides added together. However, we know that these sides must be congruent because it is a regular hexagon.

Solving for Perimeter

We can create an equation that describes the perimeter of this shape, with "x" representing the length of one side.

Since all the sides are equal we can use multiplication instead of addition. To solve this equation, divide both sides by 6.

This means that all sides must be 12 inches.
