A biologist watches and records the number of hippos that visit a particular
watering hole over a 30-day period. What method is the scientist using to
collect data?
OA. Observational study
OB. Survey
C. Control
D. Experiment

Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer is option A which is  Observational study.

What is an observational study?

This is an example of an observational study because the biologist is not interfering or interacting with the subjects of the study but just watching and registering data (recording with cameras).

The biologist is not conducting an experiment because (he is not setting up special conditions to register different responses to drive conclusions), and the biologist is not making any survey (questionnaires for example).

Therefore the correct answer is option A which is  Observational study.

Five sisters bought a present for their mother. They received a 10% discount on the original price of the gift. After the discount was taken, each sister paid $5.40. What was the original price of the gift?

I need an answer soon! Pleasle

Answers

Answer:

$30 is the original price.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price of the gift.  The sisters got a 10% discount, so the price paid by them is 0.90x.

The five sisters each paid $5.40, so the total they paid was:

5*($5.40) = $27.

This is equal to the 0.90x:  

0.90x = $27

x = $27/0.90

Step-by-step explanation:

2hours = 180km

2hours = 120minutes

40mins =180/3

           =60km

Here, [tex]A[/tex] is the area, [tex]b[/tex] is the base and [tex]h[/tex] is the height.

However, we are looking for height, so let's rearrange the equation for [tex]h[/tex]:

[tex]A = \frac{bh}{2}\\2A = bh\\h = \frac{2A}{b}[/tex]

Which equation would have real zero(s) corresponding to the x-intercept(s) of the graph below?

Answers

Answer:

the first one listed (y = -[tex]2^{x}[/tex] + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

a 0 at an x-intercept means that when plugging in that number, you get a 0 as a y-value.

So, the easiest method to use is to plug x=2 into each equation listed, because we can see that (2,0) is a point on this graph

if y= -[tex]2^x\\[/tex] + 4

y = -2² + 4

y = -4 + 4

y = 0

This means that this graph has corresponding real zero(s) to the function    y= [tex]-2^x[/tex] + 4

What is the standard form of 0.00849​

Answers

Answer:

8.49 × 10⁻³

Explanation:

Standard form of a number: A. × 10ᵇ

(where 'A' is the number, b is the exponent over 10)

For the number "0.00849​", move the decimal point 3 places right so the exponent of 10 is -3.

Standard form: 8.49 × 10⁻³

Other examples of standard/scientific forms are:   standard forms

i) 0.043, move the decimal point 2 places right = 4.3 × 10⁻²

ii) 4030, move the decimal point 3 places left = 4.03 × 10³

Answer:

when a number is given in that manner you have to take that decimal between two whole numbers.

and that is the main reason why I took that decimal from 0.0 to 8.49 and since it went towards the right my answer is going to be 8.49 *10 raised to negative 3.

how many solutions exists for the given equation?
3x+13=3(x+6)+1

Answers

Answer:

No Solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

original equation

3x+13 = 3(x+6)+1

distribute 3

3x+13 = 3x+18+1

simplify

3x+13 = 3x+19

since the slope is the same for both equations and the y-intercept is different the two equations are parallel meaning they will never intersect so there are no solutions.

Answer:

No solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 13 = 3 (x + 6) + 1

3x + 13 = 3x + 18 + 1

3x + 13 = 3x + 19

3x + 13 = 3x + 19 meaning no solution since they aren't equivalent to each other

(x-7)(x+2)
(-7,+2)
I put 2 as the answer, but when checking it was 7?

What part did I do wrong?

Answers

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

You were correct in setting the equation equal to 0 because the problem is asking for when the rock hits the ground and in this problem, you may  assume that the ground is y=0, unless the problem says otherwise.

Ok so where you went wrong is that when you factored out and got

(x-7)(x+2), which is correct, you forgot to set these equal to zero (because your actual equation is set to zero). So you should have

x-7 = 0

and

x+2 = 0

and this gives the actual answers +7 and -2. And since time cant be negative its 7 seconds.

This was a silly mistake and happens a lot more often than you think, so I wouldn't worry too much but make sure you practice more, better to lose points on harder questions than easy ones.

Good luck with your exam !

Answer:

7 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

[tex]y=-2x^2+10x+28[/tex]

where:

y = height above the ground (in feet)x = time (in seconds)

To find the time when the rock hits the ground, set the equation to zero and solve for x.

First, simplify by factoring out the common term  -2:

[tex]\implies -2(x^2-5x-14)=0[/tex]

Divide both sides by -2:

[tex]\implies x^2-5x-14=0[/tex]

To factor a quadratic in the form [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex], find two numbers that multiply to ac and sum to b.

[tex]\implies ac=1 \cdot -14=-14[/tex]

[tex]\implies b=-5[/tex]

Therefore, the two numbers that multiply to -14 and sum to -5 are: -7 and 2

Rewrite b as the sum of these two numbers:

[tex]\implies x^2-7x+2x-14=0[/tex]

Factorize the first two terms and the last two terms separately:

[tex]\implies x(x-7)+2(x-7)=0[/tex]

Factor out the common term (x - 7):

[tex]\implies (x+2)(x-7)=0[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]\implies x+2=0 \implies x=-2[/tex]

[tex]\implies x-7=0 \implies x=7[/tex]

As time cannot be negative, the rock hits the ground in 7 seconds.

Jarred sells DVDs. His inventory shows that he has a total of 3,500 DVDs. He has 2,342 more contemporary titles than classic titles. Let x represent the number of contemporary titles and y represent the number of classic titles. The system of equations models the given information for both types of DVDs.

x + y = 3,500

x – y = 2,342

Answers

Answer: x = 2921, y = 579

Step-by-Step Explanation:

I am assuming that we just have to Solve for ‘x’ and ‘y’.

‘x’ = No. Of Contemporary Titles
‘y’ = No. Of Classic Titles

=> x + y = 3500 (Eq. 1)
=> x - y = 2342 (Eq. 2)

Adding Eq. 1 and Eq. 2, we get :-

2x = 3500 + 2342
2x = 5842
x = 5842/2
=> x = 2921

Therefore, x = 2921

Substitute value of ‘x’ in Eq. 1 :-

x + y = 3500
(2921) + y = 3500
y = 3500 - 2921
=> y = 579

Therefore, y = 579

Hence,
No. Of Contemporary Titles = 2921
No. Of Classic Titles = 579
