Jims fish bowl contains x tetras, 3 goldfish, and 5 platies. He removes one fish from the fish bowl at random. If the probability of removing a gold fish from the bowl is 1 out of 3 , how many tetras does jim have.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

x tetras

3 goldfish

5 platies.

the total number of fishh in the bowl is x + 3 + 5

The probability of removing a gold fish is equal to the number of gold fish divided by the total number of fish, this is:

p = 3/(x + 3 + 5) = 1/3

3 = (1/3)(x + 3 + 5) = x/3 + 1 + 5/3

9 = x + 3 + 5

x = 9 - 8 = 1

then wemust have that x = 1

because 1 + 3 + 5 = 9

and 3/9 = 1/3

Jimmy pumps 288,000 cubic centimeters of air into a spherical balloon. What is the radius of the balloon?

There are no options to choose from

Answers

Answer:

r: radius of balloon

V = (4/3)*pi*r^3 =  288000

=> r^3 = 288000*(3/4)/pi

=> r^3 = 68754.94

=> r = [tex]\sqrt[3]{68754.94}[/tex] = ~40.97 cm

The growth of a population of bacteria can be modeled by an exponential function. The graph models the population of the bacteria colony P(t) as a function of the time t, in weeks, that has passed. The initial population of the bacteria colony was 500. What is the domain of the function? What does the domain represent in this context?

Answers

Answer:

t ≥0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the information:

The initial population: 500

The graph models the population of the bacteria colony P(t) as a function of the time t, in weeks,

=> our function is: P(t) =500*[tex]b^{t}[/tex] where b is the base number and it is ≥0

What is the domain of the function?

The domain of exponential functions is all real numbers greater than zero

<=> t ≥0 (because t present for the time and time can not have negative value)  

What does the domain represent in this context?

t  is the independent variable is this exponential function and the population of bacteria depends on the change of t.

Because it is the growth function so the range (the population of bacteria) increase over its domain (the time)

Maxis taking a cross-country road trip. Gas prices vary as the friends travel across the US from $4 dollars per gallon on the east coast, to $3 in the mid-US, to $5 on the west coast. B On their way back they had more baggage in the car and spend $601 for 174 gallons of gas. Based on the same ratio as in Part (a), how many gallons of gas did they buy at each price?

Answers

Answer:

A) The amount of gas they bought on each coast;

East Coast = 35 gallons

Mid-US = 100 gallons

West Coast = 15 gallons

B) The amount of gas they bought on each coast on the return journey;

East Coast = 37 gallons

Mid-US = 116 gallons

West Coast = 21 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete Question

Maxis taking a cross-country road trip. Gas prices vary as the friends travel across the US from $4 dollars per gallon on the east coast to $3 in the mid-US, to $5 on the west coast.

(a) If they used twice as much gas in the mid-US than on either coast combined, and they spend $515 on gas to purchased 150 gallons of gas, how many gallons of gas did they buy at each price?

The answer to this question is East Coast - 35 gal, Mid-US - 100 gal, West Coast - 15 gal.

(b) On their way back they had more baggage in the car and spend $601 for 174 gallons of gas. Based on the same ratio as in Part (a), how many gallons of gas did they buy at each price? I don't know the answer to this one

Solution

Let the amount of fuel bought on the east coast = x gallons

Let the amount of fuel bought on the mid-coast = y gallons

Let the amount of fuel bought on the west coast = z gallons

a) - They used twice as much gas in the mid-US than on either coast combined

y = 2(x + z) = 2x + 2z (eqn 1)

- They spend $515 on gas to purchase 150 gallons of gas.

Total gallons purchased = x + y + z = 150

Total amount spent = 4x + 3y + 5z = 515

From eqn 1, y = 2x + 2z, inserting this value for y in the 2 other equations

x + y + z = x + 2x + 2z + z = 150

3x + 3z = 150

Divide through by 3

x + z = 50 (eqn *)

4x + 3y + 5z = 4x + 3(2x + 2z) + 5z = 515

4x + 6x + 6z + 5z = 515

10x + 11z = 515 (eqn **)

x + z = 50

10x + 11z = 515

Solving the simultaneous equation,

x = 35 gallons

z = 15 gallons

y = 2x + 2z = 2(35 + 15) = 100 gallons

B) On the return journey, the ratio between x, y and z is still the same, but the total gallons and total amount spent is now different.

They used twice as much gas in the mid-US than on either coast combined

y = 2(x + z) = 2x + 2z (eqn 1)

- They spend $601 on gas to purchase 174 gallons of gas.

Total gallons purchased = x + y + z = 174

Total amount spent = 4x + 3y + 5z = 601

From eqn 1, y = 2x + 2z, inserting this value for y in the 2 other equations

x + y + z = x + 2x + 2z + z = 174

3x + 3z = 174

Divide through by 3

x + z = 58 (eqn *)

4x + 3y + 5z = 4x + 3(2x + 2z) + 5z = 601

4x + 6x + 6z + 5z = 601

10x + 11z = 601 (eqn **)

x + z = 58

10x + 11z = 601

Solving the simultaneous equation,

x = 37 gallons

z = 21 gallons

y = 2x + 2z = 2(37 + 21) = 116 gallons

Find the first four terms in the sequence an=15+6n.

A. 18, 12, 6, 0

B. 20, 26, 32, 38

C. 21, 27, 33, 39

D. 20, 14, 8, 2

Answers

The first four terms in the sequence an=15+6n are 21, 27, 33, and 39.

The correct option is C. 21, 27, 33, 39

From the question, the equation to calculate the nth term is given which is

an=15+6n.

Now, let a1, a2, a3 and a4 denote the first, second, third and fourth terms respectively.

For the first term, a1

n = 1,

From the given equation, an=15+6n

∴ a1 = 15 + 6(1)

a1 = 15 + 6

a1 = 21

∴The first term is 21

For the second term, a2

n = 2,

From the given equation, an=15+6n

∴ a2 = 15 + 6(2)

a2 = 15 + 12

a2 = 27

∴The second term is 27

For the third term, a3

n = 3,

From the given equation, an=15+6n

∴ a3 = 15 + 6(3)

a3 = 15 + 18

a3 = 33

∴The third term is 33

For the fourth term, a4

n = 4,

From the given equation, an=15+6n

∴ a4 = 15 + 6(4)

a4 = 15 + 24

a4 = 39

∴The fourth term is 39

Hence, the first four terms in the sequence an=15+6n are 21, 27, 33, and 39.

The correct option is C. 21, 27, 33, 39

The equation of line a is y=-1/4x+3 if line b runs perpendicular theough (2,6) what would be the equation of line b ?

Answers

Answer:

The formula of this perpendicular line is y = 4x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In y = -1/4x+3 the gradient is -1/4.

If two lines are perpendicular, then their gradients will multiply together to give -1.

Use this to find the gradient a of the perpendicular line.

-1/4 * a = -1

a = -1 * -4 so the gradient a of the perpendicular line = 4.

Substitute (2,6) in y = 4x + b, to find the value of b.

y = 4x + b

(2,6)

6 = (4*2) + b

b = 6 - (8)

b = -2

So now we have our equation.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The whole thing equals 360 degrees

Angle B and Angle D are equal; which equals 190 degrees.

Add Angle A to 190 degrees; which is 86 + 190 = 276.

Subtract 360, which is what the whole thing equals, and 276, which is the known angle added together, and you get 56.

In order for this to be a parallelogram, the opposite angles need to be equal.

Since they are not, the answer is must not be.
