1 * 10^3

Step-by-step explanation:

1440 can be rounded off to the nearest hundred as 1400.

1440 can be rounded off to the nearest thousand as 1000.

1000 = 1 * 10^3

Answer from: Quest

d. 8

step-by-step explanation:

the given radical expression is:

$\sqrt{16}\times \sqrt{4}$

we can rewrite this as:

$(16)^{\frac{1}{2}\times (4)^{\frac{1}{2}$

we express as square numbers to get;

$(4^2)^{\frac{1}{2}\times (2^2)^{\frac{1}{2}$

the exponents will now cancel out to give.

$4\times2=8$

the correct answer is d

What is the value of the radical expression shown below

Answer from: Quest

a. we have two

lines: y = 4-x and

y = 8-x^-1

given two simultaneous equations that are both to be

true, then the solution is the points where the lines cross. the intersection is

where the two equations are equal. therefore the solution that works for both

equations is when

4-x = 8-x^-1

this is where the two lines will cross and that is the

common point that satisfies both equations.

b. 4-x = 8-x^-1

x 4-x 8-x^-1

-3 7

8.33

-2 6 8.5

-1 5 9

0 4

1 3

2 2

7.5

3 1 7.67

the table shows that none of the x values from -3 to 3 is

the solution because in no case does

4-x = 8-x^-1

to find the solution we need to rearrange the equation to

find for x:

4-x = 8-x^-1

multiply both sides with x:

4x-x^2 = 8x-1

x^2+4x-1=0

x= -4.236, 0.236

therefore there are two points that satisfies the

equation.

find y:

x=-4.236

y = 4-x = 4 – (-4.236)

= 8.236

y = 8-x^-1 = .236)^-1

= 8.236

x=0.236

y = 4-x = 4 – (0.236) = 3.764

y = 8-x^-1 = 8-(0.236)^-1

= 3.764

thus the two lines cross at 2 points:

(-4.236, 8.236) & (0.236, 3.764)

c. to solve

graphically the equation 4-x = 8-x^-1

we would graph both lines: y = 4-x and y

= 8-x^-1

the point on the graph where the lines cross is the

solution to the system of equations.

just graph the points on part b on a cartesian coordinate

system and extend the two lines. the

solution is, as stated, the point where the two lines cross on the graph.

Aprisoner is trapped in a cell containing three doors. the first door leads to a tunnel that returns him to his cell after two days of travel. the second leads to a tunnel that returns him to his cell after three days of travel. the third door leads immediately to freedom. (a) assuming that the prisoner will always select doors 1, 2 and 3 with probabili- ties 0.5,0.3,0.2 (respectively), what is the expected number of days until he reaches freedom? (b) assuming that the prisoner is always equally likely to choose among those doors that he has not used, what is the expected number of days until he reaches freedom? (in this version, if the prisoner initially tries door 1, for example, then when he returns to the cell, he will now select only from doors 2 and 3.) (c) for parts (a) and (b), find the variance of the number of days until the prisoner reaches freedom. hint for part (b): define ni to be the number of additional days the prisoner spends after initially choosing door i and returning to his cell.
