Answer:
Theresa's height=60 inches
Paul's height= Steve's height=74 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Theresa has two brothers,Paul and Steve, who are both the same height. Paul says he is 16 inches shorter than 1 1/2 times Theresa's height. Steve says he's 6 inches shorter than 1 1/3 times Theresa's height. If they're both right, how tall is Theresa ?
Let
p=paul's height
s=steve's height
t=theresa's height
Paul's height = Steve's height
p=s
Paul says he is 16 inches shorter than 1 1/2 times Theresa's height
1 1/2 * t -16
=3/2t -16
Steve says he is 6 inches shorter than 1 1/3 times Theresa's height
1 1/3 * t - 6
=4/3t - 6
P=S
3/2t -16 = 4/3t - 6
Collect like terms
3/2t-4/3t= -6+16
9t-8t/6 =10
t/6=10
Cross product
t=60
Theresa's height=60 inches
P=3/2t -16
=3/2(60) -16
=180/2 -16
=90-16
=74 inches
p=s
Paul's height=74 inches
A family has four children. What is the probability that two children are girls and two are boys? Assume the the probability of having a boy (or a girl) is 50%.
Answer:The first issue one most notice is the words “at least” We are trying to find the probability of at least 2 girls.
The five possible outcomes for girls are 0,1,2,3,4. The odds of 1 girl out of 4 is .25 and the odds of 1 boy out of 4 is .25 (same as the odds of 3 out of 4 girls). Therefore the odds of 1 OR 3 girls must be .5 because 1 girl and 3 girls each has a .25 probability. If the probability of (1 OR 3 girls) equals .5, then the probability of 2 girls must be a different number.
The probability of 2 or more girls, is the sum of the probability of 4 girls (.06125)(—-.5 to the 4th power—— ), plus the probability of 3 girls (.25)——(the same as the probability of 1 boy)—- plus the probability of 2 girls. Since we know the probability of zero boys is .0625 (again, .5 to the 4th power) and the probability of 1 boy is .25 (the same as the probability of 3 girls )———then the probability of 2 girls is ((1 minus (the sum of the probability of 0 OR 1 boys) plus the (sum of the probability of 3 or 4 girls)), or 1-((.0625+.25)+(.0625+.25)), or .375. We had to derive the probability of two from the other known probabilities. Therefore .375+.25+.0625=.6875 is the probability of both AT LEAST 2 girls and also NO MORE than 2 boys. Notice this adds up to 1.375 because the probability of the central number 2 (i.e., .375) appears on both sides.
20. A pool holds 1440 CUBIC feet of water, the aty
charges $). 15 per cubic meter of water
used now, much will it cost to fill the pool?
Complete question :
A pool holds 1440 cubic feet of water, the city charges $1.75 per cubic meter of water used.
How much will it cost to fill the pool?
Answer:
$71.36
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount charged per cubic meter = $1. 75
Total volume of pool = 1440 ft^3
Using the conversion unit chart :
1 cubic meter = 35.3147 cubic foot
Then we can express the capacity of water held by the pool in cubic metre.
If 1 cubic meter = 35.3147 cubic foot
Then ;
y cubic meter = 1440 cubic foot
y = 1440/35.3147
y = 40.776220 cubic meter
Thus;
Cost of filling the pool will be;
$1.75 × 40.776220
= $71.358386
= $71.36
Jayden is driving on a long road trip. He currently has 11 gallons of gas in his car. Each hour that he drives, his car uses up 0.75 gallons of gas. How much gas would be in the tank after driving for 4 hours? How much gas would be left after t hours?
Answer:
a. 8 gallons
b. (11-0.75t) gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Here in this question, we are told that the total amount of fuel in the fuel tank is 11 gallons and the car consumes 0.75 gallon per hour. We are interested in knowing the amount of fuel left in the tank after driving for four hours.
We proceed as follows;
Since 0.75 gallon is consumed in an hour, the amount of fuel consumed in 4 hours would be the amount consumed in an hour * 4 hours
Mathematically, that would be 0.75 * 4 = 3 gallon
Now, the amount of fuel left is simply the difference between the initial amount of fuel in the tank minus the amount of fuel present after 4 hours.
That would be; 11 - 3 = 8 gallons
b. Like above, we want to know the amount of fuel left after t hours.
Since 0.75 is used up per hour, the amount used up in t hours would be 0.75 * t = 0.75t
Now, the amount of fuel that would be left in the tank would be the difference between what we had initially and what was used up.
Mathematically, that would be 11- 0.75t
Dubai Mall and Deira City Centre are equidistant from Wafi Mall. Considering Wafi Mall as origin, the position of Deira City Centre is ( 0,7). If the ordinate of the position of Dubai Mall is zero, then write the coordinates of the position of Dubai Mall.
they're equidistant, so distance should be equal.
distance of City centre is [tex]\sqrt{0^2+7^2}=7[/tex]
distance of mall is simply $x$. (ordinate is 0, means the point is on x axis , and that's the distance from origin)
thus, $$x=7$$
Soda Tak claims that Diet Tak has 40mg of sodium per can. You work for a consumer organization that tests such claims. You take a random sample of 60 cans and find that the mean amount of sodium in the sample is 41.9mg. The population standard deviation in all cans is 5.2mg. You suspect that there is more than 40mg of sodium per can. Find the z-score.
Answer:
Z - score = 2.83
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Number of samples (N) = 60
Sample mean (x) = 41.9mg
Population mean (μ) = 40mg
Population standard deviation (sd) = 5.2
Using the relation :
Z = (x - μ) / (sd / √N)
Z = (41.9 - 40) / (5.2 / √60)
Z = 1.9 / (5.2 / 7.7459666)
Z = 1.9 / 0.6713171
Z = 2.8302570
Therefore, the z-score = 2.83
Joshua remembered he had a coupon in his pocket that would take and additional 30%off the price of the shirts. Calculate the new total cost of the shirts including a sales tax of 6.5%
Answer:
New cost of the shirt=$39.028416
Step-by-step explanation:
Target is having a Back to School sale where all polo shirts are discounted by 20%. Joshua wants to buy five shirts: two cost $10.98 each, one costs $11.50, and two others cost $15.99 each. Joshua remembered he had a coupon in his pocket that would take an additional 30% of the shirts. Which choice represents the new total cost of the shirts including the sales tax of 6.5%
Solution
Two shirts cost=$10.98 each
One shirt cost=$11.50
Two shirts cost=$15.99 each
Total cost of shirts=(2*$10.98 + $11.50 + 2*$15.99)
=$21.96 + $11.50 + $31.98
=$65.44
All polo shirts are discounted by 20%
It means he would pay 100%-20% of the total cost
100%-20%=80%
Discounted price=$65.44 * 80%
=$65.44 * 0.8
=$52.352
He has a coupon of 30% off the shirt
100% -30%=70%
=$52.352*70%
=$52.352 * 0.7
=$36.6464
Plus Sales tax of 6.5%
6.5% of $36.6464
=0.065* $36.6464
=$2.382016
New cost of the shirt=$36.6464 + $2.382016
=$39.028416
1.Solve by factorization method: x+1/x=11 1/11 2.Comment on the nature of roots for 4x^2-5=2(〖x+1)〗^2-7 plz, help...
Answer:
The equation
[tex]4\,x^2-5=2\,(x+1)^2-7[/tex]
can be solved by first expanding all indicated operations, and later when the constant terms disappear, by factoring out 2x , leaving the equation as a product of two factors equal zero, from which it is easy to extract the roots. See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
When solving for x in the following expression, and using factoring to apply at the end the zero product theorem:
[tex]4\,x^2-5=2\,(x+1)^2-7\\4\,x^2-5=2\,(x^2+2x+1)-7\\4\,x^2-5=2\,x^2+4\,x+2-7\\4\,x^2-5=2\.x^2+4\,x-5\\4\,x^2=2\,x^2+4\,x\\4\,x^2-2\,x^2-4\,x=0\\2\,x^2-4\,x=0\\2\,x\,(x-2)=0[/tex]
We observe that for the last product, to get a zero, x has to be zero (making the first factor zero), or x has to be "2" making the binomial factor zero.

collen family plans to paint the window of their house. her father will paint twice as many window as her mother, and collen and her 2 brothers will paint an equal number of the rest of the windows. How many windows are there
Need Help Will Mark Brainlist
Answer:
21 windows
Step-by-step explanation:
collen family plans to paint the windows of their house. her father will paint twice as many windows as her mother, and collen and her 2 brothers will paint an equal number of the rest of the windows. Colleen decided to do her own share and her mother's share and paints 7 window, which is one less than her father's share. how many windows are in their house?
Answer: Let the number of window Collen father would paint be a while that of her mother be b. Since her father will paint twice as many window as her mother, therefore the number of windows painted by the father a = 2b
Let the number of windows that would be needed to be painted each by Colleen and her 2 brothers be c because they would paint the equal number of windows.
The total number of windows to be painted = 2b + b + c + c + c = 3b + 3c = 3(b + c).
Collen painted 7 windows as her mother and her own share which is one less than the fathers share. Therefore b + c = 7.
Also the fathers share a = 2b = 7 + 1 = 8 windows. Therefore b = 4 which is the mother share
Therefore the total number of windows = 3(b + c) = 3(7) = 21 windows
3b + 3c = 21
3(4) + 3c = 21
12 + 3c = 21
3c = 21 - 12
3c = 9
c = 3 which is collen and her brothers share
what is the x intercept for y=(2x(x-3))/(x-1). ?
my answer sheet says it is supposed to be -0.5
Answer:
( 0,0) and (3,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
y=(2x(x-3))/(x-1)
Set y = 0
0 =(2x(x-3))/(x-1)
Multiply each side by x-1, which makes x not equal to 1
0 =(2x(x-3))
Using the zero product property
2x=0 x-3 =0
x=0 x= 3
The x intercepts are x=0 x= 3
( 0,0) and (3,0)

For a data set of the pulse rates for a sample of adult females, the lowest pulse rate is 31 31 beats per minute, the mean of the listed pulse rates is x overbar x equals = 71.0 71.0 beats per minute, and their standard deviation is s equals = 12.6 12.6 beats per minute.
Complete question is;
For a data set of the pulse rates for a sample of adult females, the lowest pulse rate is 31 beats per minute, the mean of the listed pulse rates is x over bar equals 71.0 beats per minute, and their standard deviation is s equals 12.6 beats per minute.
a. What is the difference between the pulse rate of 31 beats per minute and the mean pulse rate of the females?
b. How many standard deviations is that [the difference found in part (a)]?
c. Convert the pulse rate of 31 beats per minutes to a z score.
d. If we consider pulse rates that convert to z scores between minus 2 and 2 to be neither significantly low nor significantly high, is the pulse rate of 31 beats per minute significant?
Answer:
A) 40 beats per minute
B) 3.1746
C) z = -3.17
D) the pulse rate of 31 beats per minute is significantly low.
Step-by-step explanation:
A) The mean pulse rate is given as x bar = 71
Thus difference between this and pulse rate of 31 beats per minute is;
Difference = 71 - 31 = 40 beats per minute
B) number of standard deviations of the difference found in part a is given as;
number = difference/standard deviation(s)
number = 40/12.6
number = 3.1746
C) The z-score is calculated from;
z = (x - xbar)/s
z = (31 - 71)/12.6
z = -3.17
D) from the question we are told that the z scores between minus2 and 2 to be neither significantly low nor significantly high. However, we have a Z-score of -3.17 which doesn't fall into that range. Thus, the pulse rate of 31 beats per minute is significantly low.

Show all the steps and write the solution. (5 points) Part B: If the two equations are graphed, at what point will the lines representing the two equations intersect? Explain your answer. (5 points)
Answer:
A. (1, -2)
B. the lines intersect at the solution point: (1, -2).
Step-by-step explanation:
A. The equations can be solve by substitution by using the y-expression provided by one of them to substitute for y in the other.
This gives ...
3x -5 = 6x -8
Adding 8-3x to both sides, we get ...
3 = 3x
Dividing both sides by 3 gives ...
1 = x
Substituting this value into the first equation, we can find y:
y = 3(1) -5 = -2
The solution is (x, y) = (1, -2).

7 -10
Initial value: 20, rate of change: 10
Initial value: 30, rate of change: 10
Initial value: 25, rate of change: -5
Initial value: 20, rate of change: -10
Answer:
Initial Value: 25, Rate of change -5.
First. Lets find the rate of change.
y2-y1/x2-x1 = m
We have A(1,20) B(3,10)
10-20/3-1=-5
m=-5(Rate of change)
Now let's find the initial value using slope-point form.
y-y₁=m(x-x₁)
y-20=-5(x-1)
=-5x+5+20
=-5x+25
The initial value is the value of y when the value of x is equal to 0. (Also the Y-Intercept)
Initial Value = -5(0)+25

Show your work to find the rate of change and initial value. (6 points) Part B: Write an equation in slope-intercept form to model the relationship between x and y. (4 points)
Answer:
Rate of Change/Slope = -20
Equation: y= -20x +100
Step-by-step explanation:
A. We know the rate of change is also known as the slope. If we used the slope formula to find the slope we can find the Rate of Change.
[tex]\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} = \frac{100-80}{1-2} = \frac{20}{-1} = -20[/tex]
B. Since we know the slope and 1 point on the graph we can substitute them in for 'b'
(0,100)
(100)=-20(0) + b
b = 100
Since we know the slope and the b value we can write the equation:\
y = -20x +100
The rate of change refers to the slope of the line, that is the change in y-axis per unit change in the value on the x-axis. Hence, the rate of change is :
Slope = - 20y = -20x + 100Slope = Rise / Run Rise = (y2 - y1) = (0 - 100) = - 100Run = (x2 - x1) = (5 - 0) = 5Slope = - 100 / 5 = - 20
General form of a slope - intercept relation :
y = bx + cThe intercept, c can be calculated thus:
100 = - 20(0) + c
100 = 0 + c
c = 100
Hence, the slope - intercept equation will be y = - 20x + 100
