Lenny is competing with his cousin, Jasper, in an indoor rock-climbing contest. At the start of the climb, Lenny makes his way 5 ¼ feet up the wall, while Jasper climbs 9 ¾ feet. How much farther did Jasper climb than Lenny?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]4\frac{1}{2}[/tex] feet further.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since these are mixed numbers that are both in fourths, we can easily subtract the two numbers. However, I find it easier if we first convert both mixed numbers into improper fractions.

[tex]5\frac{1}{4} = \frac{5\cdot4+1}{4} = \frac{21}{4}[/tex]

[tex]9\frac{3}{4} = \frac{9\cdot4+3}{4} = \frac{39}{4}[/tex]

Now we can subtract the numerators:

[tex]\frac{39}{4} - \frac{21}{4} = \frac{39-21}{4} = \frac{18}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{18}{4}[/tex] simplifies down to [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex].

Converting  [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex] to a mixed number is easy - 2 goes into 9 4 times (8) with one remainder so:

[tex]4\frac{1}{2}[/tex] .

Hope this helped!

5184 = 72 × 72

Therefore, the positive integer factors of 15552 that are perfect squares are;

1, 4, 9, 16, 36, 64, 91, 144, 324, 576, 1296, 5184.

after allowing 5 percent discount on the marked price of a radio 10 percent vat is charged on it , then its price became rs 1672 .how much amount was given in the discount​

Answers

Answer:

Marked price= RS 1600

Discount= RS 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x= the marked price

Discount= 5%

Discount = 5% of x

=0.05x

Cost after discount = x-0.05x

= 0.95x

Vat=10%

=0.1

Cost of the radio including vat=0.95x + 0.1(0.95x)

=0.95x + 0.095x

=1.045x

Price became rs 1672

Therefore,

1.045x=1672

Divide both sides by 1.045

x= RS 1600

Discount=5% of 1600

=0.05 * 1600

=rs 80

The size of a television screen is given as 95 cm, correct to the nearest 5 cm.
Write down the upper bound of the size of the television screen.

Answers

Answer:

The upper bound is 97.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The upper bound is given as the value that is larger than or equal to all values in a data set, for example, in the data set, {3, 6, 16, 23, 25}, an upper bound  is 25, however, where the accuracy of the data is given, the upper bound can be found by the following relation

Where the number is given to the nearest 100, add and subtract  half of hundred to obtain the upper bound and lower bound respectively

For the question, given that the size of the television is given as 95 cm, correct to the nearest 5 cm, we add add half of 5 cm to get the upper bound as follows;

Upper bound = 95 cm + 5/2 cm = 97.5 cm

The upper bound = 97.5 cm.

Esmereldas family went out to dinner paying 20% tip at the end of the meal. Their credit card was charged $51.00. What was the amount on the bill without the tip

Answers

Answer:

42.50

Step-by-step explanation:

bill + tip = total bill

The tip is based on the bill

tip = bill * 20%

tip = bill * .20

Replace in the original equation

bill + .20 bill = total bill

Combine like terms

1.20 bill = total bill

The total bill was 51 dollars

1.20 bill = 51

Divide each side by 1.20

1.20 bill / 1.2 = 51/ 1.2

bill =42.50

Answer:

$42.50

Step-by-step explanation:

If the total was $51 with the tip, and you know the tip was 20%, you can set up an equation and solve:

0.2x+x=51

1.2x=51

x=42.5

Therefore, the bill (w/o tip) was $42.50

Calculate Kate's speed:

s = d/t

s = 4.5/1.33

Let's assume both circles as C1 and C2 [ as shown in the figure ]

AB is the radius of circle C1 AB is the radius of Circle C2

AC is the radius of circle C1.

BC is the radius of circle C2 .

AB and AC both are radius of circle C1 so both are equal ie AB = AC .

AB and BC both are radius of circle C 2 so both are equal ie AB = BC .

Hence we conclude that .

AB = BC = AC.

So the triangle is equilateral triangle.

Suppose y varies jointly as x & z. If y = -180 when z = 15and x = -3,then find y when x = 7 and z = -5.

Answers

Answer:

y = - 140

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y varies jointly as x and z then the equation relating them is

y = kxz ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = - 180 when z = 15 and x = - 3, thus

- 180 = k × - 3 × 15 = - 45k ( divide both sides by - 45 )

4 = k

y = 4xz ← equation of variation

When x = 7 and z = - 5, then

y = 4 × 7 × - 5 = - 140

You pack sandwiches for a hike with your friends. Each sandwich takes 2 slices of bread, and each hiker eats one sandwich.

How many slices of bread are used for n hikers?

Answers

Given that:-

→ 1 sandwich = 2 slices of bread.

→ 1 hiker = 1 sandwich.

Then we have to find number of bread slices for n hikers .

→ Number of bread slices for 1 hiker = 2

→ Number of bread slices for 2 hikers = 2 × 2

→ For 3 hikers = 3 × 2

So in similar way

Number of bread slices for n hikers = 2×n 2n

So 2n is the answer.

A dolphin is swimming with her friend. The dolphin jumps to a height of 4.54 meters above the surface of the water as her friend swims 9.8 meters directly below her. What is the position of the dolphin's friend relative to the surface of the water?

Solution

The dolphin jumps to a height of 4.5 meters above the surface of the water

Her friend swims directly 9.8 meters below her

The position of the dolphin's friend relative to the surface of the water= dolphins position above the surface of the water - her friend's position below her

=4.5 meters - 9.8 meters

= -5.3 meters

-5.3 meters means below the water surfaces

This means, the dolphin's friend is 5.3 meters below the water surface
