Answer:

4 is E, 5 is A

Step-by-step explanation:

4) Divide both sides by 5 to get |2x + 1| = 11, then solve for x to get 5 and -6.

5) Add 7 to both sides to get ½|4x - 8| = 10. Multiply both sides by 2 to get |4x - 8| = 20, then solve for x to get 7 and -3.

Camille is attending a fundraiser. She pays for her admission and buys raffle tickets for $5dollar each. If she buys 10 raffle tickets, then she would spend a total of $135 at the fundraiser.
The number S of dollars Camille spends at the fundraiser is a function of r, the number of raffle tickets she buys.
Write the function's formula.

Answers

Answer:

50r + a = 135

Admission cost was $85

Step-by-step explanation:

We are missing a crucial amount of information here. It is how much she spent on her admission. We can create an equation symbolizing this problem.

5r + a = 135

We know that she purchases 10 tickets so we can substitute that in r and solve for a.

50 + a = 135

a = 85

It's camping season! Ernie and Bert set up their tents 15 m from
each other. Ernie has Tent 1 and Bert has Tent 2. The angle
between the line of sight from Bert's tent to the shower and the
line of sight from Bert's tent to Ernie's tent is 78 degrees. If
Ernie's tent is 19m away from the shower, is Bert 's tent closer or
further away from the shower and by how much? In your
calculations, round your angles to the nearest whole degree and
side measurements to the nearest tenth of a metre.

2

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "21.6".

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A stand for tent 1

Let B stand for tent 2

Let C be a shower

Using cosine formula:  

[tex]c= \sqrt{b^2 +a^2 - 2ab\cdot \cos(C)}\\\\[/tex]

  [tex]= \sqrt{(19)^2 + (15)^2 - 2\cdot 19 \cdot 15 \cdot \cos(78^{\circ})}\\\\= \sqrt{361 + 225 - 570\cdot \cos(78^{\circ})}\\\\ = \sqrt{586- 570\cdot \cos(78^{\circ})}\\\\= 21.6\\\\[/tex]

Therefore, you need to reduce the similarity from B to C which is the length from tent 2 to shower:

Tent 2 Distance to Dusk = 21.6m

Bert's tent is 21.6m away from the shower

Step-by-step explanation:

½x + y = 4

y = 4 - ½x

Javier jogs 3/4 of a mile in 8/1/2 minutes.

If he keeps the same pace, how many minutes will it take him to jog 1 mile?

Answers

Answer:

11 1/3 minutes per mile.

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 miles jogged in 8 1/2 minutes.

So 1 mile jogged in: 8 1/2 divided by 3/4 = 8 1/2 x 4/3  = (17 x 4) / (2 x 3) = 11 1/3 minutes per mile

Answer:

x = 11 1/3 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write a ratio to solve

3/4 mile              1 mile

----------------- = --------------

8 1/2 minutes        x minutes

Using cross products

3/4 *x = 8 1/2

Multiply each side by 4/3

4/3 * 3/4x = 8 1/2 * 4/3

x = 17/2 * 4/3

x = 34/3

x = 11 1/3

Answers

Answer:

h= 60

g= 120

m= 147

k= 33

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that all three lines are straight an continuous, so, at any given point the angles should add up to 180 degrees.

This immediately helps with angle h:

    120 + h = 180

              h = 60

As well as m:

     33 + m = 180

              m = 147

There are two ways to solve the next part:

First and most familiar way:

    h + g = 180

    60 + g = 180

             g = 120

and:

    m + k = 180

    147 + k = 180

              k = 33

The other way that I prefer is that the angles opposite of each other when two lines intersect are equal. I don't know if that makes sense, it's hard to explain in this format.

Area = (18)(4)/2

A professor has learned that nine students in her class of 35 will cheat on the exam. She decides to focus her attention on ten randomly chosen students during the exam. a. What is the probability that she finds at least one of the students cheating

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{73,331}{75,516}\approx 97.11\%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that she will find at least one student cheating is equal to the probability that she finds no students cheating subtracted from 1.

Each time she randomly chooses a student the probability she will catch a cheater is equal to the number of cheaters divided by the number of students.

Therefore, for the first student she chooses, there is a [tex]\frac{9}{35}[/tex] chance that the student chosen is a cheater and therefore a [tex]\frac{26}{35}[/tex] chance she does not catch a cheater. For the second student, there are only 34 students to choose from. If we stipulate that the first student chosen was not a cheater, then there is a [tex]\frac{9}{34}[/tex] chance she will catch a cheater and a [tex]\frac{25}{34}[/tex] chance she does not catch the cheater.

Therefore, the probability she does not catch a single cheater after randomly choosing ten students is equal to:

[tex]\frac{26}{35}\cdot \frac{25}{34}\cdot \frac{24}{33}\cdot \frac{23}{32}\cdot \frac{22}{31}\cdot \frac{21}{30}\cdot \frac{20}{29}\cdot \frac{19}{28}\cdot \frac{18}{27}\cdot \frac{17}{26}[/tex]

Subtract this from one to get the probability she finds at least one of the students cheating after randomly selecting nine students. Let event A occur when the professor finds at least one student cheating after randomly selecting ten students from a group of 35 students.

[tex]P(A)=1-\frac{26}{35}\cdot \frac{25}{34}\cdot \frac{24}{33}\cdot \frac{23}{32}\cdot \frac{22}{31}\cdot \frac{21}{30}\cdot \frac{20}{29}\cdot \frac{19}{28}\cdot \frac{18}{27}\cdot \frac{17}{26},\\\\P(A)=1-\frac{2,185}{75,516},\\\\P(A)=\boxed{\frac{73,331}{75,516}}\approx 0.97106573441\approx \boxed{97.11\%}[/tex]

A party rental company has chairs and tables for rent. The total cost to rent 2 chairs and 5 tables is $53. The total cost to rent 8 chairs and 3 tables is $42. What is the cost to rent each chair and each table?

Answers

Answer:

c=cost of one chair rental

t=cost of one table rental

8c+3t=42

2c+5t=53

multiply the second equation, each term on both sides, by -4

8c+3t=42

-8c-20t=-212

add the two equations

-17t=-170

divide both sides by -17

t=$10 to rent one table

substitute t=10 into either original equation

2c+5(10)=53

2c+50=53

2c=3

c=$1.50 to rent one chair
