Answers

For only 4 wire transfers, Checking account A has a monthly fee of $54, while checking account B has a monthly fee of $55, so the correct option is D.

Which checking account is better?

Checking account A charges a monthly fee of $12, plus $10.50 for each wire transfer, then the total cost if you make 4 wire transfers is:

C = $12 + $10.50*4 = $54

For checking account B, we have a fixed cost of $21, plus $8.50 per each wire transfer, then the total cost for 4 wire transfers is:

C'  = $21 + 4*$8.50  = $55

So, if you make only 4 wire transfers per month, checking account A is a better option.

Then we can see that the correct option is D.

The local minimum over the interval [-3,-1] is 0, the local maximum over the interval [-1,0] is 4.39, local minimum over the interval[0,3]is -32.

Given a graph of a function.

We are required to find:

A)Local minimum over the interval [-3,-1],

B) Local maximum over the interval [-1,0],

C) Local minimum over the interval [0,3].

We know that local maximum is a point after which the value of function starts decreasing and the local minimum is a point after which the value of function starts increasing.

When we see the graph from x=-3 to x=-1 we can find that the highest point is where the value of f(x) is minimum and after which the graph is increasing is at x=-2 and y=0, so the value of local minimum will be 0.

When we see the graph from x=-1 to x=0 we can find that the highest point is where the value of f(x) is maximum and after which the graph is decreasing is at  y=4.39, so the value of local maximum will be 4.39.

When we see the graph from x=0 to x=3 we can find that the highest point is where the value of f(x) is minimum and after which the graph is increasing is at  y=-32, so the value of local minimum will be -32.

Hence the local minimum over the interval [-3,-1] is 0, the local maximum over the interval [-1,0] is 4.39, local minimum over the interval[0,3]is -32.

A tower that is 114 feet tall casts a shadow 121 feet long. Find the angle of elevation of the sun to the
nearest degree

Answers

Answer:

43 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

First, notice that we can draw a right triangle to represent this situation. The vertical leg of the triangle corresponds to the tower, and the horizontal leg corresponds to the shadow. The height of the tower, 114, is OPPOSITE, and the length of the shadow, 121, is ADJACENT to the angle of elevation to the top of the tower. Remember SOH CAH TOA, we can use TAN to find the angle since we know the values of O and A.

TAN(x) = O/A

TAN(x) = 114/121

You inherit one million dollars. You invest it all in three accounts for one year. The first account pays 3% compounded annually, the second account pays 4% compounded annually, and the third account pays 2% compounded annually. After one year, you earn $34,000 in interest. If you invest four times the money into the account that pays 3% compared to 2%, how much did you invest in each account?

Answers

The amount that was invested are at 3% = 400000, at 4% = 500000 and at 2% = 100000

How to solve for the amount invested

We have x + y + z = 1000000

((1+0.03)x - x)+ ((1+0.04)y - y) + ((1 + 0.02)z-z) = 34000

4z + x + z = 1000000

((1+0.03)4z - 4z)+ ((1+0.04)y - y) + ((1 + 0.02)z-z) = 34000

((1+0.03)4z - 1)+ ((1+0.04)y - 1) + ((1 + 0.02)z-1) = 34000

12/100z + 4/100y +2/100z = 34000

2y + 7z = 1700000

-2y - 10z = -2000000

2y + 7z = 1700000

Solve through the use of the simultaneous linear equation

How to determine the piecewise functions?

On the domain of t = 0 to 2, we have:

f(0) = 800

f(1) = 1200

f(2) = 1800

The above function is a piecewise function with the following definition

f(0) = 800 --- initial value

The function is then represented as:

f(t) = f(0) * r^t

This gives

f(t) = 800 * 1.5^t

On the domain of t = 3 to 9, we have:

f(3) = 2700

f(4) = 2835

The above function is a piecewise function with the following definition

f(3) = 800 --- initial value

r = 2835/2700 = 1.05 --- rate

An oil-drilling company knows that it costs $25,000 to sink a test well. If oil is hit, the income for the drilling company will be $325,000. If only natural gas is hit, the income will be $155,000. If nothing is hit, there will be no income. If the probability of hitting oil is 1/40 and if the probability of hitting gas is 1/20, what is the expectation for the drilling company?

Answers

The expected value for the drilling company, using a discrete distribution, is of -$9,125, that is, a loss of $9,125.

What is the mean of a discrete distribution?

The expected value of a discrete distribution is given by the sum of each outcome multiplied by it's respective probability.

Considering the cost that it takes to sink a test well, and the probabilities of each outcome, the discrete distribution is given by:

P(X = 300,000) = 1/40 = 0.025.P(X = 130,000) = 1/20 = 0.05.P(X = -25,000) = 1 - (0.025 + 0.05) = 0.925.

Hence the expected value is given as follows:

E(X) = 300000 x 0.025 + 130000 x 0 .05 - 25000 x 0.925 = -$9,125.

What is the standard form equation of the ellipse that has vertices (-15, 4) and (5, 4) and co-vertices (-5, -3) and
(-5, 11)?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the main vertices (-15,4) and (5,4) both have the same y coordinate. This means that the focal axis is horizontal so we have a horizontal ellispe.

Equation of a horizontal ellipse is

[tex] \frac{(x - h) {}^{2} }{ {a}^{2} } + \frac{(y - k) {}^{2} }{ {b}^{2} } = 1[/tex]

I'll explain the variables.

Step 1: Find the center.

The center (h,k) is the midpoint of either the main or co vertices. It doesn't matter because of the definition of an ellipse.

So using the midpoint formula, let find the midpoint of the main vertices.

[tex]( \frac{ - 15 + 5}{2} ) = - 5[/tex]

[tex] \frac{4 + 4}{2} = 4[/tex]

So our center is (-5,4) so as of right now we have

[tex] \frac{(x + 5) {}^{2} }{ {a}^{2} } + \frac{(y - 4) {}^{2} }{ {b}^{2} } = 1[/tex]

Step 2: The variable a represents the semi major axis. This

basically means what is the distance from the center to either main vertex.

Here, let use (5,4). Using (5,4), our main vertex and (-5,4), our center.

Use the distance formula

[tex]a= \sqrt{(5 - ( - 5) {}^{2} + (4 - 4) {}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex]a = \sqrt{100} [/tex]

[tex]a= 10[/tex]

So our distance is 10, this means a=10

Step 3: The variable b represent the semi minor axis. This basically the distance from the center to either co vertex.

Using the distance formula,

[tex]b = \sqrt{ (- 5 - ( - 5) {}^{2} + (4 - 11) {}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex]b = \sqrt{49} [/tex]

[tex]b = 7[/tex]

So b=7, so finally we plug a=10, b=7

[tex] \frac{(x + 5) {}^{2} }{100} + \frac{(y - 4) {}^{2} }{49} = 1[/tex]

b) The estimated slope of the line tangent to the curve at the point (x, y) = (15, 765) is - 94.2 gallons per minute.

How to estimate the slope of a tangent line by averaging two adjacent secant lines

In this problem we must determine the slope of several lines based on the information given by the table and using the secant line formula:

m = [f(q) - f(p)] / (q - p)     (1)

If we know that a = 15 and p = 765, then the slope of the secant lines are:

q = 5, f(q) = 2,076

m = [2,076 - 765] / (5 - 15)

m = - 131.1

q = 10, f(q) = 1,299

m = [1,299 - 765] / (10 - 15)

m = - 106.8

q = 20, f(q) = 357

m = [357 - 765] / (20 - 15)

m = - 81.6

q = 25, f(q) = 84

m = [84 - 765] / (25 - 15)

m = - 68.1

q = 30, f(q) = 0

m = [0 - 765] / (30 - 15)

m = - 51

The slope of the line tangent to the curve at the point (x, y) = (15, 765) can be estimated by averaging the slopes of the closest secant lines:

m' = [(- 106.8) + (- 81.6)] / 2

m' = - 94.2

Answers

The z-score for a data value of 19 if the mean of a set of data is 37 and the standard deviation is 8.6 is -2.09

How to determine the z-score of the data value?

From the question, the given parameters about the distribution are

Mean value of the set of data = 37

Standard deviation value of the set of data = 8.6

The actual data value = 19

The z-score of the data value is calculated using the following formula

z = (x - mean value)/standard deviation

Substitute the given parameters in the above equation

z = (19 - 37)/8.6

Evaluate the difference of 19 and 37

z = -18/8.6

Evaluate the quotient of -18 and 8.6

z = -2.09
