Two less than two thirds times a number is ten

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Let the number be x
2/3*x - 2 = 10
or, 2/3 * x =12
or x= 12*3/2
or, x = 18

What is Exponential function?

Calculating the exponential growth or decay of a given collection of data is done using an exponential function, which is a mathematical function. Exponential functions, for instance, can be used to estimate population changes, loan interest rates, bacterial growth, radioactive decay, and disease spread.

The standardform of exponential form is

f(x) = a^x

1. y = 1^x

Thus is not Exponential function because any power of 1 result to only 1.

2. y = 1/2^x

This is Exponential Function as it has initial value 0.5.

3. y = -2^x

This is Exponential Function as it has initial value -2.

Answers

Answer:

$4.69

Step-by-step explanation:

$1.62/lb×2.5=$4.05

$0.48/lb×11/3=$0.64

The probabilities of a test are represented by I for infected; U, uninfected; D, infection detected; and N, no infection detected. What is the symbolic way to represent the probability of a true positive? P(I⋂D) P(I⋂D)P(D) P(U⋂N)P(N) P(I⋃D)

Answers

Answer:

The symbolic way to represent the probability of a true positive is:

               P(I∩D)

Step-by-step explanation:

The representation is given as follows:

I for infected; U, uninfected; D, infection detected; and N, no infection detected.

We are asked to find which expression represents the probability of a true positive.

i.e we are asked to find the probability that a person who is infected is also detected.

Let P denote the probability of an event.

        Hence, the expression is:

           P(I∩D)

\mathbb P(I\cap D)

If the population of a particular country is growing at 1.6% compounded continuously, how long will it take the population to triple? The population will triple in ______ years if it is growing at 1.6% compounded continuously. (Round up to the nearest year.)

Answers

e ^(0.016t)=3 / * log _(e) \n log _(e) e^(0.016t)=log _(e) 3 \n 0.016t=log _(e) 3
0.016 t = 1.0986
t = 1.0986 : 0.016
t = 68.66 ≈ 69
The population will triple in 69years if it is growing at 1.6 % compounded continuously.

Questions 1-3
A triangle is:
either scalene, isoceles, or equilateral, and
either acute, right, or obtuse.

Question 1: The triangle is right b/c it has a right angle.
The triangle is isoceles because it has two congruent sides.
Right isoceles triangle

Question 2: The triangle is obtuse b/c it has an obtuse angle. (>90°)
The triangle is isoceles b/c it has two congruent sides.
Obtuse isoceles triangle

Question 3: All angles in a triangle add up to 180°. Let's find the 3rd angle.
180 - (80 + 60) = 180 - 140 = 40°
Congruent angles \doublearrow congruent sides, so...
If the angles are all different, the sides are all different and the triangle is scalene. It is also acute because all angles are <90°.
Acute scalene triangle

Question 4
An exterior angle of a triangle = the sum of its remote interior angles.
what does this mean? In this case, it means that
4x + 10 = 50 + x + 5
The reason this works: <ACD is supplementary to <ACB, so they must both add up to 180. Likewise, the angles of the triangle <ACB, <BAC, and <ABC all add up to 180. Since both = 180, we can set them equal (substitution prop)
m<ACD + m<ACB = m<ACB + m<BAC + m<ABC
subtract m<ACB from each side
m<ACD = m<BAC + m<ABC
now let's solve our equation.
4x + 10 = 50 + x + 5
4x + 10 = 55 + x
subtract x from each side
3x + 10 = 55
subtract 10 from each side
3x = 45
divide by 3
x = 15
the measure of the interior angle = (x+5)° = (15+5)° = 20°
the measure of the exterior angle = (4x+10)° = (4(15)+10)° = (60+10)° = 70°

Question 5
As we can see from the diagram...
AB = CD, AD = BC
<ABD = <BDC, <ADB = <CBD
Also obvious from the reflexive prop...
BD = BD
And because the three angles add up to 180° and we know that two of them are the same, the third must be the same as well.
<A = <C
(three points don't need specified because only one angle is possible with this vertex)

Question 6
Because the angles in a triangle add up to 180°...
m<A + m<ADB + m<ABD = 180°
We know that m<A = 60°...
60 + m<ADB + m<ABD = 180°
We know that m<DBC = 70°, and from the diagram, <ADB is cong. to <DBC.
Therefore m<ADB = 70°.
60 + 70 m<ABD = 180°
130 + m<ABD = 180°
m<ABD = 50°
