The lines on a 2-cup liquid measuring cup divide each cup into eighths If you measure 1 3/4 cups of water between which two quantities can you be certain that your exact measurement will be
Answer:
The line between 1 5/8 and 1 7/8 is exactly 1 3/4.
Step-by-step explanation:
1 3/4 = 1 6/8
Since the lines are every 1/8 of a cup, there are a total of 16 lines indicating 1/8 of a cup for a total of two full cups.
1/8 less than 1 6/8 is 1 5/8.
1/8 more than 1 6/8 is 1 7/8.
The line between 1 5/8 and 1 7/8 is exactly 1 3/4.

Please solve, -7x+8=-4(x+1)
Answer: [tex]x=4[/tex]
Simplify both sides of the equation.
[tex]-7x+8=-4(x+1)\\-7x+8=(-4)(x)+(-4)(1)(Distribute)\\-7x+8=-4x+-4[/tex]
Add 4x to both sides
[tex]-7x+8+4x=-4x-4+4x\\-3x+8=-4[/tex]
Subtract 8 from both sides
[tex]-3x+8-8=-4-8\\-3x=-12[/tex]
Divide both sides by -3
[tex]-3x/-3=-12/-3\\x=4[/tex]
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's first simplify the equation.
-7x+8= -4x-4
You get -4x-4 by distributing the -4 into the numbers in the parenthesis because -4 is right outside the parenthesis.
-4 times x= -4x
-4 times 1= -4
-7x+8= -4x-4
Next, move the -4x to where the -7x is because we want to combine like terms. When a number moves to the opposite side, it changes from positive to negative or negative to positive. Like here: -4x moves to a different side, so it becomes +4x.
-7x+4x+8= -4
Do the same for 8. Since -4 is on the other side, move 8 to that side. It turns from +8 to -8.
-7x+4x= -4-8
Combine like terms and solve.
-7x+4x= -3x
-4-8= -12
So we have this now: -3x= -12
Since 12 divided by 3 is 4, and negative with negative is positive, it becomes positive 4. :)
The average life of individual is 70 years. With a standard deviation of 5.5 years. Assume that the lives of these individuals is normally distributed. a. Find the probability that a mean life of a random sample of 5 such turtles falls between 60 and 80 years. b. Find the mean data value that separates the top 10% from the rest of the means computed from a random sample of size 5.
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
mean (μ) = 70 years, standard deviation (σ)= 5.5 years.
a) The z score measures how many standard deviation a raw score is above or below the mean. It is given as:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex], for a sample size of n, the z score is: [tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
Given a sample of 5 turtles, we have to calculate the z score for x = 60 and x = 80.
For x = 60:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }=\frac{60-70}{5.5/\sqrt{5} } =-4.07[/tex]
For x = 80:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }=\frac{80-70}{5.5/\sqrt{5} } =4.07[/tex]
The probability that a mean life of a random sample of 5 such turtles falls between 60 and 80 years = P(60 < x < 80) = P(-4.07 < z < 4.07) = P(z < 4.07) - P(z < -4.07) = 1 - 0 = 1 = 100%
b) The z score that corresponds to top 10% is -1.28.
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }\\\\-1.28=\frac{x-70}{5.5/\sqrt{5} }\\ x-70=-3\\x=70-3\\x=67\ years[/tex]
solve for x 3(x+2) = 12
Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x+2) = 12
Divide by 3
3/3(x+2) = 12/3
x+2 = 4
Subtract 2 from each side
x+2-2 = 4-2
x =2
Answer:
The value of x is equal to 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x + 2) = 12
Distribute 3 to (x + 2)
3x + 6 = 12
Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation.
3x = 6
Divide 3 on both sides of the equation.
x = 2
The value of x is 2

In a group of 25 people, only three languages are spoken – English, Spanish and German. If there is at least one person who speaks all the three languages, how many people can interact with each other in English and German? 4 people speak two languages but do not speak Spanish One fifth of the group speaks more than one language.
Answer:
x + a=5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
number of people who speak only English = E
the number of people who speak only German = G
the number of people who speak only Spanish = S
the number of people who speak only English & German but not Spanish = x
the number of people who speak only English & Spanish but not German = y
the number of people who speak only German & Spanish but not English = z;
the number of people who speak only German & Spanish & English = a
Find the the value of (x + a).
Statement 1: 4 people speak two languages but do not speak Spanish.
x = 4.
x+a
Value for a is unknown.
(x + a). Insufficient.
Statement 3: One-fifth of the group speaks more than one language.
x + y + z + a
= 25/5
= 5
value of (x + a) unknown
Insufficient.
Putting (1) and (2) together
x + y + z + a = 5
x = 4 and a=1,
we have only one possible solution from
x + y + z + a = 5
x + a
= 4 + 1
= 5.
Sufficient.

Solve 2(x - 5) = 48 - 4(x + 1)
Answer:
x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
first remove the brackets
2x - 5 = 48 - 4x + 1
then take numbers to the opposite sides
2x + 4x = 48 + 5 + 1
I have used addition because since your taking-5 to the other side it becomes+5 and -4 becomes +4
now solve
2x + 4x= 6x
48+5+1= 54
6x = 54
now solve for x
divide both sides by 6x
x = 9

You see Bonnie rock climbing El Capitan. On your telescope is a clinometer. The angle
of elevation is 20 degrees. You know you are standing 950 feet away from El Capitan.
How high up is Bonnie?
Answer:
≈ 345.8 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a right triangle formed by Bonnie's height (h) the ground and the angle of elevation.
Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle
tan20° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{h}{950}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 950 )
950 × tan20° = h , thus

In 2002, the population of a district was 22,800. With a continuous annual growth rate of approximately 5% what will the population be in 2012 according to the exponential growth function?
Answer:
37,139
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Population in 2002 = Initial population (P0) = 22,800
Growth rate (r) = 5% = 0.05
Growth in 2012 using the exponential growth function?
Time or period (t) = 2012 - 2002 = 10years
Exponential growth function:
P(t) = P0 * (1 + r) ^t
Where P(t) = population in t years
P(10) = 22800 * (1 + 0.05)^10
P(10) = 22800 * (1.05)^10
P(10) = 22800 * 1.62889
P(10) = 37138.797
P(10) = 37,139 ( to the nearest whole number)

Find the measure of b.
Answer:
b = 80°
Step-by-step explanation:
The inscribed angle measuring 100°, is supplementary to the angle opposite it in the inscribed quadrilateral.
Thus, the angle is = 80°
Therefore, b + 80° = 180° (angle on a straight line = 180°).
Thus, b = 180° - 80° = 100°.
The measure of b is 80°.
In Exercise 4, find the surface area of the solid
formed by the net.
Answer:
3. 150.72 in²
4. 535.2cm²
Step-by-step Explanation:
3. The solid formed by the net given in problem 3 is the net of a cylinder.
The cylinder bases are the 2 circles, while the curved surface of the cylinder is the rectangle.
The surface area = Area of the 2 circles + area of the rectangle
Take π as 3.14
radius of circle = ½ of 4 = 2 in
Area of the 2 circles = 2(πr²) = 2*3.14*2²
Area of the 2 circles = 25.12 in²
Area of the rectangle = L*W
width is given as 10 in.
Length (L) = the circumference or perimeter of the circle = πd = 3.14*4 = 12.56 in
Area of rectangle = L*W = 12.56*10 = 125.6 in²
Surface area of net = Area of the 2 circles + area of the rectangle
= 25.12 + 125.6 = 150.72 in²
4. Surface area of the net (S.A) = 2(area of triangle) + 3(area of rectangle)
= [tex] 2(0.5*b*h) + 3(l*w) [/tex]
Where,
b = 8 cm
h = [tex] \sqrt{8^2 - 4^2} = \sqrt{48} = 6.9 cm} (Pythagorean theorem)
w = 8 cm
[tex]S.A = 2(0.5*8*6.9) + 3(20*8)[/tex]
[tex]S.A = 2(27.6) + 3(160)[/tex]
[tex]S.A = 55.2 + 480[/tex]
[tex]S.A = 535.2 cm^2[/tex]

Jonas needs a cell phone. He has a choice between two companies with the following monthly billing policies. Each company’s monthly billing policy has an initial operating fee and charge per text message. Sprint charges $29.95 monthly plus .15 cents per text, AT&T charges $4.95 monthly plus .39 cents per text. Create equations for the two cell phone plans.
Answer:
Since both companies have a different plan, two equations are created to determine which company Jonas should choose with respect to the number of messages sent.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Sprint = $ 29.95 * X (0.15)
- AT & T = $ 4.95 * X (0.39)
One dollar equals 100 cents, so 0.15 cents equals $ 0.0015 dollars.
- Sprint = $ 29.95 * X (0.0015)
- AT & T = $ 4.95 * X (0.0039)
Si Jonas envía 500 mensajes de texto el valor mensual de cada empresa sería de:
- Sprint = $ 29.95 * 500 (0.0015) = 22.46 dollar per month.
- AT & T = $ 4.95 * 500 (0.0039) = 9.65 dollar per month.
The company Jonas should choose is AT&T.
AT&T also charges a little more per number of text messages, but since the phone's value is so low it would take thousands of text messages to compare to Sprint's monthly value.
A trader bought a bag for 125gh cedis. he later sold it at a profit of 30%. What is his selling price
Answer:
162.5 Cedis
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost Price= 125
Profit % = 30%
Selling price=?
Selling price= Cost price+ profit
Profit = ?
[tex]profit \% = \frac{profit}{cost \: price} \times 100[/tex]
[tex]30 \% = \frac{x}{125} \times 100[/tex]
[tex]30 \% = \frac{100x}{125} \\ 30 \times 125 = 100x[/tex]
[tex]3750 = 100x \\ \frac{3750}{100} = \frac{100x}{100} \\ x = 37.5[/tex]
Profit = 37.5 gh Cedis
Selling price= 125+37.5
Selling price= 162.5 gh Cedis
The selling price of a bag is 162.5Cedis.
It is required to find the selling price.
What is profit?The profit is defined as the amount gained by selling a product, and it should be more than the cost price of the product.
Given that :
Let the profit be x.
Cost Price= 125
Profit % = 30%
profit%=profit/cp*100
30=profit/125*100
3750=100x
x=37.5
profit=37.5
Selling price= Cost price+ profit
Selling price=125+37.5
Selling price=162.5ghcedis
So, the selling price of a bag is 162.5Cedis.

A geometric sequence has a common ratio of 22 and the 12th12th term is −12,288.−12,288.
What is the explicit rule that describes this sequence?
Answer:
Tₙ = -3(2)ⁿStep-by-step explanation:
The explicit rule for determining the nth term of a geometric sequence is expressed as Tₙ = arⁿ⁻¹ where;
a is the first term of the geometric sequence
r is the common ratio
n is the number of terms
If a geometric sequence has a common ratio of 2 and the 12th term is −12,288, then;
T₁₂ = ar¹²⁻¹
T₁₂ = ar¹¹
Given T₁₂ = -12,288 and r = 2, we can calculate the first term a
-12,288 = a2¹¹
a = -12,288/2¹¹
a = -12,288/2048
a = -6
Since the explicit rule for determining the nth term of a geometric sequence is expressed as Tₙ = arⁿ⁻¹, then for the sequence given, the explicit rule will be;
Tₙ = -6(2)ⁿ⁻¹
Tₙ = -6 * 2ⁿ * 2⁻¹
Tₙ = -6 * 2ⁿ * 1/2
Tₙ = -3(2)ⁿ
Hence the explicit rule that describes this sequence is Tₙ = -3(2)ⁿ

Let the quadratic equation of the function by the points in the given equation is,
f(x) = ax² + bx + c
If the points lying on the graph are (-3, -10), (-4, -8) and (0, 8),
For (0, 8),
f(0) = a(0)² + b(0) + c
8 = c
For a point (-3, -10),
f(-3) = a(-3)² + b(-3) + 8
-10 = 9a - 3b + 8
9a - 3b = -18
3a - b = -6 --------(1)
For (-4, -8),
f(-4) = a(-4)² + b(-4) + 8
-8 = 16a - 4b + 8
-16 = 16a - 4b
4a - b = -4 ------(2)
Subtract equation (1) from equation (2)
(4a - b) - (3a - b) = -4 + 6
a = 2
From equation (1),
6 - b = -6
b = 12
Function will be,
f(x) = 2x² + 12x + 8
= 2(x² + 6x) + 8
= 2(x² + 6x + 9 - 9) + 8
= 2(x² + 6x + 9) - 18 + 8
= 2(x + 3)² - 10
By comparing this function with the vertex form of the function,
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k) is the vertex.
Vertex of the function 'f' will be (-3, -10)
And axis of symmetry will be,
x = -3
From the given graph, axis of the symmetry of the function 'g' is; x = -3
Therefore, both the functions will have the same axis of symmetry.
y-intercept of the function 'f' → y = 8 Or (0, 8)
y-intercept of the function 'g' → y = -2 Or (0, -2)
Therefore, y-intercept of 'f' is greater than 'g'
Average rate of change of function 'f' = [tex]\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex] in the interval [a, b]
= [tex]\frac{f(-3)-f(-6)}{-3+6}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{-10-8}{3}[/tex]
= -6
Average rate of change of function 'g' = [tex]\frac{g(b)-g(a)}{b-a}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{g(-3)-g(-6)}{-3+6}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{7+2}{-3+6}[/tex]
= 3
Therefore, Average rate of change of function 'f' is less than 'g'.
percent increase formula
A = old value
B = new value
C = percent change
C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%
---------------------
Example:
Lets say we start at A = 10 and increase to B = 15. The percent change would be...
C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%
C = [ (15 - 10)/10] * 100%
C = (5/10) * 100%
C = 0.5 * 100%
C = 50%
The positive C value means we have a percent increase. Going from 10 to 15 is a 50% increase.
