Cevap: $300\pi$

Cevap

The volume of the cylinder is

300\pi

cubic centimeters.

The correct answer is the volume of

300\pi

cubic centimeters. We find this by using the cylinder's surface area equation

2\pi r h + 2\pi r^2 = 170\pi

with

h = 12

, which reduces to

r^2 + 12r - 85 = 0

. Factoring this equation gives the radius

r = 5

. Plugging

r = 5

and

h = 12

into the volume formula

V = \pi r^2 h

gives

300\pi

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up the formula for the total surface area of a cylinder and plug in the given values.

2\pi r h + 2\pi r^2 = 170\pi

, where

h = 12

. This simplifies to

2\pi r(12) + 2\pi r^2 = 170\pi

, or

24\pi r + 2\pi r^2 = 170\pi

.

We need to find the radius of the cylinder to calculate its volume.

2

Divide the entire equation by

2\pi

to simplify it into a standard quadratic form.

r^2 + 12r - 85 = 0

.

Simplifying the equation makes it easier to solve for the radius

r

.

3

Factor the quadratic equation to find the positive value of the radius

r

.

(r + 17)(r - 5) = 0

, which gives

r = 5

since the radius must be positive (

r > 0

).

Factoring allows us to solve for the variable

r

.

4

Use the radius

r = 5

and height

h = 12

to compute the volume of the cylinder.

V = \pi r^2 h = \pi (5^2)(12) = 25 \times 12 \pi = 300\pi

cubic centimeters.

The volume formula for a cylinder is

V = \pi r^2 h

.

To solve the inequality, first distribute the negative two to the terms inside the parentheses to get

5 - 6x + 2 \geq -4x + 11

. Combining the constants on the left side yields

7 - 6x \geq -4x + 11

. Adding four

The mass of a sample of a chemical compound in a reaction decays exponentially. The mass, in grams, of the sample $t$ hours after the reaction starts can be modeled by the function $M(t) = a \cdot b^t$ , where $a$ and $b$ are positive constants. If the mass of the sample is $18$ grams after $2$ hours and $8$ grams after $4$ hours, what is the initial mass, in grams, of the sample?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 40.5

Cevap

40.5

The initial mass of the sample is

40.5

grams (which can also be entered as the fraction

81/2

). This is found by setting up the two equations from the given points:

a \cdot b^2 = 18

and

a \cdot b^4 = 8

. Dividing the second equation by the first eliminates

a

and gives

b^2 = \frac{4}{9}

. Substituting

b^2 = \frac{4}{9}

back into the first equation yields

a \cdot \frac{4}{9} = 18

. Multiplying both sides by

\frac{9}{4}

results in

a = 40.5

. Since

M(0) = a \cdot b^0 = a

, the initial mass of the sample is

40.5

grams.

1

Set up the system of exponential equations using the given coordinates.

a \cdot b^2 = 18

and

a \cdot b^4 = 8

This represents the mass of the sample at

t = 2

and

t = 4

using the model

M(t) = a \cdot b^t

.

2

Divide the second equation by the first equation to eliminate the constant

a

and solve for

b^2

.

b^2 = \frac{4}{9}

Dividing the equations yields

\frac{a \cdot b^4}{a \cdot b^2} = \frac{8}{18}

, which simplifies to

b^2 = \frac{4}{9}

.

3

Substitute the value of

b^2

back into the first equation to solve for the initial mass

a

.

a = 40.5

Substituting

b^2

gives

a \cdot \frac{4}{9} = 18

. Multiplying both sides by

195

The correct answer is

195

. At

t = 0

, Plot A contains

150\text{ grams}

and Plot B contains

80\text{ grams}

. Since Plot A increases linearly and reaches

180\text{ grams}

at

t = 2

, its weekly rate of change is

\frac{180 - 150}{2} = 15\text{ grams per week}

. Thus, at week

t = 4

, Plot A contains

150 + 15(4) = 210\text{ grams}

. Since Plot B increases exponentially and reaches

180\text{ grams}

at

t = 2

, its weekly growth factor

b

satisfies

80b^2 = 180

, which gives

b^2 = 2.25

and

b = 1.5

. Thus, at week

t = 4

, Plot B contains

80(1.5)^4 = 405\text{ grams}

. The difference

to

180\text{ grams}

at

t = 2

. The rate of increase is

\frac{180 - 150}{2} = 15\text{ grams per week}

180\text{ grams}

at

t = 2

. The weekly growth factor

b

satisfies

80b^2 = 180

b^2 = 2.25

and

b = 1.5

. Thus, at

t = 4

, the nitrogen level is

80(1.5)^4 = 80(5.0625) = 405\text{ grams}

Cevap: $\frac{7}{15}$

Cevap

The probability that the selected commuter has a daily commuting distance of under 10 miles, given that they primarily use a personal vehicle, is

\frac{7}{15}

.

To find the probability that a commuter has a daily commuting distance of under 10 miles given that they primarily use a personal vehicle, we limit our sample space to only the commuters who use a personal vehicle. The total number of commuters who primarily use a personal vehicle is

35 + 40 = 75

. Within this group, the number of commuters with a daily commuting distance of under 10 miles is 35. Therefore, the probability is the fraction

\frac{35}{75}

, which simplifies to

\frac{7}{15}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the total number of commuters who satisfy the condition of primarily using a personal vehicle.

The total number of commuters who primarily use a personal vehicle is

35 + 40 = 75

.

This sum represents the total number of possible outcomes (the denominator) because the selection is restricted to this group.

2

Identify the number of commuters within that subset who have a daily commuting distance of under 10 miles.

The number of personal vehicle commuters with a daily commuting distance of under 10 miles is 35.

This represents the number of favorable outcomes (the numerator).

3

Divide the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes and simplify the resulting fraction.

The probability is

\frac{35}{75} = \frac{7}{15}

.

Dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, 5, gives the simplified probability.

A commercial cargo ship is unloading shipping containers at a port. The total mass of the ship and its remaining cargo, $M$ , in kilotonnes (kt), is a linear function of the number of hours, $h$ , since the unloading process began. After $3$ hours of unloading, the total mass of the ship and its cargo is $116$ kt. After $8$ hours of unloading, the total mass is $98$ kt. According to this model, what is the mass, in kilotonnes, of the cargo that is unloaded each hour?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 3.6

Cevap

The mass of the cargo unloaded each hour is

3.6

kilotonnes (or the equivalent fraction

\frac{18}{5}

).

The correct answer is

3.6

. Since the relationship between the total mass of the ship and cargo,

M

, and the elapsed time,

h

, is linear, the rate at which cargo is unloaded corresponds to the magnitude of the slope of the linear function. Using the two data points

(3, 116)

and

(8, 98)

, the slope

m

can be calculated as

\frac{98 - 116}{8 - 3} = \frac{-18}{5} = -3.6

. The negative sign indicates that the mass is decreasing, meaning that

3.6

kilotonnes of cargo are unloaded each hour.

.

4

Interpret the slope's value in context to find the amount of cargo unloaded per hour.

Apply the co-function identity for complementary angles.

For any two complementary angles

A

Find the axis of symmetry.

The axis of symmetry is

x = 3

.

Since

f(1) = 15

and

f(5) = 15

, the function values are equal at these points. Because a quadratic function is symmetric, the axis of symmetry is the midpoint of these two

x

-values:

\frac{1 + 5}{2} = 3

.

2

Identify the vertex.

The vertex is

(3, 3)

The vertex of a quadratic function lies on its axis of symmetry. Since the axis of symmetry is

x = 3

, the

x

3

. From the table,

f(3) = 3

, so the vertex is

(3, 3)

3

Write the function in vertex form and solve for the leading coefficient.

f(x) = 3(x - 3)^2 + 3

The vertex form of a quadratic function is

f(x) = a(x - h)^2 + k

, where

(h, k)

is the vertex. Substituting

(3, 3)

, we get

f(x) = a(x - 3)^2 + 3

. Using the point

(1, 15)

from the table, we substitute

x = 1

and

f(x) = 15

:

15 = a(1 - 3)^2 + 3 \Rightarrow 15 = 4a + 3 \Rightarrow 12 = 4a \Rightarrow a = 3

Evaluate the function at

x = 0

Because the reduction in erosion is a direct consequence of the regenerated trees, a cause-and-effect transition like 'consequently', 'therefore', or 'as a result' is logically required to connect the sentences.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Analyze the relationship between the ideas in the passage.

The sentence before the blank describes how the reintroduction of wolves allowed riverbank vegetation (willow and aspen trees) to regenerate. The sentence containing the blank describes a decrease in soil erosion along the river channels.

Identifying the relationship between these two points is necessary to choose the correct transition.

2

Determine the logical connection.

The regeneration of riverbank vegetation directly caused the decrease in soil erosion (because tree roots stabilize soil). This represents a clear cause-and-effect relationship.

Establishing that the second point is a direct result of the first point requires a cause-and-effect transition.

A dataset consists of $11$ positive integers. The mean of the dataset is $14$ , and the median is $12$ . The range of the dataset is $20$ . If the maximum possible value of the largest integer in the dataset is $L$ , what is the value of $L$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 32

Cevap

The maximum possible value of the largest integer in the dataset is

32

.

The correct answer is

32

. Let the 11 integers in nondecreasing order be

x_1 \le x_2 \le \dots \le x_{11}

. Since the mean of the 11 integers is

14

, their sum is

11 \times 14 = 154

. Since the median is

12

, the 6th integer is

x_6 = 12

. The range is

20

, so

x_{11} - x_1 = 20

, which gives

x_1 = x_{11} - 20

. To maximize the largest integer

x_{11}

, we need to observe that

x_1 \le x_6 = 12

. Substituting

x_1 = x_{11} - 20

into this inequality yields

x_{11} - 20 \le 12

, which simplifies to

x_{11} \le 32

. We can verify that

x_{11} = 32

is achievable with the dataset:

12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 14, 32

. Therefore, the maximum possible value of the largest integer is

32

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the sum of the 11 integers in the dataset.

The sum of the 11 integers is

154

.

Since the mean of 11 values is 14, their sum must be

11 \times 14 = 154

.

2

Identify the median and establish the order constraint.

The 6th value in the ordered list of 11 integers is

12

.

The median of an odd number of sorted values is the middle value, which is the 6th value (

x_6 = 12

).

3

Relate the minimum and maximum values using the range.

The minimum value

x_1

is related to the maximum value

x_{11}

by

x_1 = x_{11} - 20

.

The range of the dataset is 20, which is the difference between the maximum and minimum values.

4

Find the maximum possible value of the largest integer.

The maximum value is

32

.

Since the dataset is sorted, the minimum value

x_1

cannot exceed the median

x_6 = 12

. Therefore,

x_1 \le 12 \implies x_{11} - 20 \le 12 \implies x_{11} \le 32

.

A right circular cylindrical container with a base radius of $R$ inches is partially filled with water. A solid metal sphere with a radius of $r$ inches is placed into the container and becomes completely submerged, causing the water level to rise by $1.5$ inches without any water overflowing. The sphere is then removed, and a solid right circular cone with a base radius of $r$ inches and a height of $12$ inches is placed vertex-down into the container. When the cone is completely submerged, the water level is $1$ inch higher than the container's original water level. What is the value of $R$ , in inches?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 9

Cevap

The radius of the cylinder,

R

, is

9

inches.

The volume of a submerged solid is equal to the volume of the cylinder of water it displaces. By setting up equations for the sphere and the cone, we get

\frac{4}{3}r^3 = 1.5 R^2

and

4r^2 = R^2

. Substituting the second equation into the first yields

r = 4.5

, which then gives

R = 2r = 9

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Equate the volume of the sphere to the volume of water it displaces in the cylinder.

\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 = 1.5\pi R^2 \implies \frac{4}{3}r^3 = 1.5 R^2

The volume of a submerged solid equals the volume of the fluid it displaces. The displaced fluid takes the shape of a cylinder of radius

R

and height equal to the water level rise (

1.5

inches).

2

Equate the volume of the cone to the volume of water it displaces in the cylinder.

\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 (12) = 1.0\pi R^2 \implies 4r^2 = R^2

Similarly, the volume of the cone is equal to the volume of a cylinder of radius

R

and height equal to the water level rise (

1

inch).

3

Solve the system of equations by substituting

R^2

into the sphere's displacement equation.

\frac{4}{3}r^3 = 1.5(4r^2) \implies \frac{4}{3}r^3 = 6r^2 \implies r = 4.5

By replacing

R^2

with

4r^2

, we reduce the system of equations to a single equation containing only

r

. Since

r \neq 0

, we can divide by

r^2

to solve for

r

directly.

4

Calculate the value of

R

from the relationship between

R

and

r

.

R = 2r = 2(4.5) = 9

Since

R^2 = 4r^2

and radii must be positive quantities,

R = 2r

A container in the shape of a right circular cylinder with a base radius of $4$ inches and a height of $9$ inches is completely filled with water. All of the water from this cylinder is poured into an empty container in the shape of a rectangular prism. The rectangular prism container has a square base of side length $6$ inches and a height of $15$ inches. If the height of the water in the rectangular prism container is $k\pi$ inches, what is the value of $k$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 4

Cevap

The value of

k

is

4

.

To find the height of the water in the rectangular prism, we first calculate the volume of the water using the cylinder's volume formula,

V = \pi r^2 h

. With a radius of

4

inches and a height of

9

inches, the volume is

\pi (4)^2 (9) = 144\pi

cubic inches. When this water is poured into the rectangular prism, the volume of the water can also be represented as the area of the base times the height of the water:

V = \text{Base Area} \times h_w = 6^2 \times h_w = 36 h_w

. Equating the two volumes gives

36 h_w = 144\pi

, which simplifies to

h_w = 4\pi

inches. Since the height of the water in the prism is

k\pi

inches, the value of

k

is

4

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the volume of the water in the filled cylinder using the formula

V = \pi r^2 h

.

The volume of the water is

144\pi

cubic inches.

Since the cylinder is completely filled, the volume of the water is equal to the volume of the cylinder with base radius

4

inches and height

9

inches.

2

Calculate the area of the square base of the rectangular prism container.

The base area is

36

square inches.

The base of the prism is a square with side length

6

inches, so its area is

6 \times 6 = 36

square inches.

3

Set the volume of the water in the rectangular prism equal to the volume of the water from the cylinder, and solve for the water height

h_w

.

36 \times h_w = 144\pi \implies h_w = 4\pi

inches.

Pouring the water into the prism container does not change its volume, which remains

144\pi

cubic inches. The volume of a prism is the base area times its height.

4

Compare the height of the water

4\pi

to the expression

k\pi

to find

k

.

k = 4

.

Since the height of the water is represented as

k\pi

inches and we calculated it to be

4\pi

k

must equal

A solid metal right circular cylinder has a base radius of $12\text{ centimeters}$ and a height of $3\text{ centimeters}$ . A cone with the same base and height as the cylinder is carved out and removed. The remaining metal is melted and recast into a solid sphere. What is the radius, in centimeters, of the sphere?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 6

Cevap

The radius of the sphere is 6 centimeters.

The volume of a cylinder is

V = \pi r^2 h = \pi (12)^2 (3) = 432\pi

. The volume of the carved-out cone is

V = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h = \frac{1}{3}\pi (12)^2 (3) = 144\pi

. Subtracting the cone's volume from the cylinder's volume yields the remaining metal volume:

432\pi - 144\pi = 288\pi

. The volume of the recast sphere is

\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3 = 288\pi

. Dividing by

\pi

and multiplying by

\frac{3}{4}

gives

R^3 = 216

. Taking the cube root of both sides gives the radius

R = 6

.

A municipal research group conducted a survey of a random sample of $n_1$ registered voters in a city to estimate the proportion of voters who support a proposed school bond. In this survey, the proportion of voters who supported the bond was $0.52$ , with an associated margin of error of $0.06$ at a $95\%$ confidence level. The group plans to conduct a follow-up survey of a random sample of $n_2$ registered voters from the same population. Assuming the sample proportion remains approximately the same, and the group wants the margin of error for the follow-up survey to be $0.02$ at the same $95\%$ confidence level, what is the value of the ratio $\frac{n_2}{n_1}$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 9

Cevap

9

The margin of error for a sample proportion is inversely proportional to the square root of the sample size. Since the target margin of error is one-third of the initial margin of error (from

0.06

to

0.02

), the sample size must be increased by a factor of

3^2 = 9

. Thus, the ratio of the new sample size to the original sample size is

9

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

State the formula for the margin of error of a sample proportion.

E = z^* \sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

This formula defines the mathematical relationship between the margin of error, the confidence level (via the critical value

z^*

), the sample proportion

\hat{p}

, and the sample size

n

.

2

Determine the relationship between margin of error and sample size when other variables are constant.

E \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}

Since the confidence level remains at

95\%

(constant

z^*

) and the sample proportion remains approximately the same (constant

\hat{p}

), the margin of error is inversely proportional to the square root of the sample size.

3

Set up the ratio equation for the two surveys.

\frac{E_1}{E_2} = \sqrt{\frac{n_2}{n_1}}

Dividing the expression for the first margin of error by the expression for the second margin of error simplifies to the square root of the ratio of the second sample size to the first sample size.

4

Substitute the given margins of error and solve for the ratio.

\frac{n_2}{n_1} = 9

Substitute

E_1 = 0.06

and

E_2 = 0.02

to get

\frac{0.06}{0.02} = 3 = \sqrt{\frac{n_2}{n_1}}

. Squaring both sides yields the ratio of the sample sizes, which is

9

.

While planning a presentation, a student takes the following notes:
* Kepler-186f is an exoplanet that orbits a red dwarf star known as Kepler-186.
* It belongs to a category of planets that are similar in size to Earth and orbit within their host star's habitable zone.
* The habitable zone is defined as the orbital region around a star where liquid water could potentially exist on a planet's surface.
* Orbiting within this zone does not guarantee habitability, as a planet's surface temperatures depend heavily on its atmospheric composition.
* For example, Kepler-186f receives only one-third of the stellar energy that Earth does, meaning it requires a thick greenhouse atmosphere to prevent freezing.

The student wants to present a generalization about the category of Earth-sized planets in habitable zones. Which choice most effectively uses information from the given notes to accomplish this goal?

Kepler-186f is an Earth-sized exoplanet orbiting within the habitable zone of the red dwarf star Kepler-186, which provides only one-third of the stellar energy that Earth receives.

Because Kepler-186f receives only one-third of the stellar energy that Earth receives from the Sun, it would require a thick greenhouse atmosphere to avoid freezing.

While Earth-sized planets in habitable zones have the potential to support liquid water, their actual habitability is determined by whether their atmospheres can maintain temperatures above freezing.

Since orbiting within a star's habitable zone guarantees that an Earth-sized planet can support liquid surface water, atmospheric conditions are ultimately secondary to its orbital position.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: While Earth-sized planets in habitable zones have the potential to support liquid water, their actual habitability is determined by whether their atmospheres can maintain temperatures above freezing.

Cevap

The option stating that while Earth-sized planets in habitable zones have the potential to support liquid water, their actual habitability is determined by whether their atmospheres can maintain temperatures above freezing.

The correct option successfully presents a generalization about the category of Earth-sized planets in habitable zones. It synthesizes the information from the notes regarding their potential for liquid water and the critical role of atmospheric composition in determining their actual surface temperatures, without limiting the statement to the specific example of Kepler-186f.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Analyze the prompt to identify the student's rhetorical goal.

The goal is to present a generalization about the category of Earth-sized planets in habitable zones.

This determines which information must be prioritized and how the final statement should be framed.

2

Evaluate the notes to determine the key characteristics of the category.

The category consists of Earth-sized planets in habitable zones (where water could exist), but habitability is not guaranteed and depends on atmospheric composition.

This establishes the factual basis for the correct generalization.

3

Assess the options to find the one that generalizes about the category without focusing solely on the example of Kepler-186f.

The statement describing the potential for water vs. the role of atmosphere in these planets is a valid generalization, whereas other choices focus too narrowly on Kepler-186f or misrepresent the notes.

Selecting the option that matches the category-level generalization ensures the rhetorical goal is met.
