What is the probability that Earvin, the 68 year old non Hispanic black male you're considering for a 10 year policy, lives to be 78 years old?

the answer is (2x+8)²= 16

answer:  

step-by-step explanation:

here x represents the height of the pole,

and, the height of the shadow of the pole is 12 feet.

also, the angle of elevation from the top of the pole is 40°,

therefore,

by the low of sine,

which is the required equation for finding the value of x,

the answer would be d.

step-by-step explanation:

move all variables to the left side and all constants to the right side

(x−3)^2+(y−1)^2=16

this is the form of a circle. use this form to determine the center and radius of the circle.

( x − h ) 2 + ( y − k ) 2 = r 2

match the values in this circle to those of the standard form. the variable   r   represents the radius of the circle,   h   represents the x-offset from the origin, and   k   represents the y-offset from origin.

r = 4

h = 3

k = 1

the center of the circle is found at   ( h , k ) .

center:   ( 3 , 1 )

these values represent the important values for graphing and analyzing a circle.

center:   ( 3 , 1 ).

radius:   4

a) 40 more; b) old factory:   10%, new factory:   16%; c) week 4

explanation:

a) at week 0, we see in the graph that the new factory produces 190 specialty items.  

using the function, substituting 0 in for w,

this is a difference of 230-190 = 40.

b) the function for the old factory is written in the form f(x) = a(1+r)ˣ, where a is the original amount, x is the amount of time and r is the growth rate.   the equation for the old factory is ; 230 is in place of a and is the original amount; w is the amount of time; which means 1+r = 1.1.   this means that r must be 0.1 or 10%.

for the new factory, we find the percent of increase to find the growth rate; the formula for this is

between the first two points, the amount of change is 220-190 = 30; this gives us

30/190 = 0.158 ≈ 0.16 = 16%

c) at week 0, the old factory has 230 while the new factory has 190.

at week 1, the old factory has 230(1.1) = 253 while the new factory has 220.

at week 2, the old factory has 230(1.1²) = 278.3 while the new factory has 252.

at week 3, the old factory has 230(1.1³) = 306.13 while the new factory has 290.

at week 4, the old factory has 230(1.1⁴) = 336.743 while the new factory has 337.   this is the first week that the new factory surpasses the old.
