Nigel has 2 dogs. One eats 2 1/2 pounds of food each week. The other eats 1 3/8 pounds each week. Together how much food do the dogs eat in a week

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:  3 & 7/8  pounds

whole part = 3

fractional part = 7/8

===========================================================

Explanation:

1/2 = 4/8

So the mixed number 2 & 1/2 is the same as 2 & 4/8

Adding on 1 & 3/8 will mean the fractional portions add to 4/8+3/8 = 7/8 and the whole number portions add to 2+1 = 3

Overall, the total amount eaten is 3 & 7/8 pounds

Answer 2

Answer:

27 1/8 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

2.5 multiplied by 7 would be 17.5 and 1 and 3/8's by 7 would be 7 multiplied by 3 = 21/8 which would be 9 and 5/8's added up with the first 7 pounds

A 45 foot ladder is set against the side of a house so that it reaches up 27 feet. If Nicole grabs the ladder at its base and pulls it 4 feet farther from the house, how far up the side of the house will the ladder reach now? (The answer is not 23 ft.) Round to the nearest tenth of a foot.

Answers

Mark Brainliest please.

Answer : The ladder will reach 20.6 feet.

Explanation:

Refer the image attached for explanation

The ladder will reach a height of 20.6 feet

The given parameters are:

Length = 45-footHeight = 27 feet

Start by calculating how far (d) the ladder is, from the bottom of the house using the following Pythagoras theorem

[tex]45^2 = 27^2 +d^2[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]d^2= 45^2 -27^2[/tex]

[tex]d^2= 1296[/tex]

Take square roots of both sides

[tex]d= 36[/tex]

When the ladder is moved 4 feet farther, the new distance becomes

[tex]d= 36+4[/tex]

[tex]d= 40[/tex]

The new height (h) of the ladder is then calculated using the following Pythagoras theorem

[tex]45^2=40^2 + h^2[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]h^2 = 45^2-40^2[/tex]

[tex]h^2 = 425[/tex]

Take the square roots of both sides

[tex]h = 20.6[/tex]

Hence, the ladder will reach a height of 20.6 feet

the difference of two numbers is 13/24. if 11/12 of the reciprocal of one number is equal to 5/9 of the reciprocal of the other, what are the 2 numbers?

Answers

Answer:

The two numbers are 11/8 and 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown numbers be x and y

Given that the difference of two numbers is 13/24

x - y = 13/24

and  that 11/12 of the reciprocal of one number is equal to 5/9 of the reciprocal of the other

11/12 * 1/x = 5/9 * 1/y

11/12x = 5/9y

cross multiply

12x * 5 = 11* 9y

60x = 99y

x = 99y/60

= 33y/20

substitute into x - y = 13/24

33y/20 - y = 13/24

13y/20 = 13/24

24y = 20

y = 20/24

= 5/6

x = 33y/20

= 33 *5/20*6

= 11/8

1. Find the numbers a, b, c such that
2x4 + 2x3 +5x2 + 3x + 3 = (x2 + x +1)(ax2+bx+c)
for all values of x.​

Answers

Answer:

a = 2

b = 0

c = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

if I understand correctly the problem should look like

2x⁴ + 2x³ + 5x² + 3x + 3 = (x² + x + 1)(ax² + bx + c)

let's calculate the right side

ax⁴ + ax³ + ax² + bx³ + bx² + bx + cx² + cx + c

as there is only one term of x⁴, we know a = 2

as there is only one term without any x, we know c = 3

now we get

2x⁴ + 2x³ + 2x² + bx³ + bx² + bx + 3x² + 3x + 3

remember, that is equal to

2x⁴ + 2x³ + 5x² + 3x + 3

after subtracting 2x⁴ and 3 from both sides we get

2x³ + 5x² + 3x = 2x³ + 2x² + bx³ + bx² + bx + 3x² + 3x

we subtract 2x³ and 3x from both sides and get

5x² = 2x² + bx³ + bx² + bx + 3x² = 5x² + bx³ + bx² + bx

we subtract 5x² from both sides and get

0 = bx³ + bx² + bx

=> b must be 0 to make this true for all values of x

Answer:

y = -1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, the distance between two points on a coordinate plane can be calculated using the formula;

d = √(x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2

for the first two points;

(5,y) and (1,4) ; we have

d = √(5-1)^2 + (y-4)^2

d = √(y-4)^2 + 16

For the other two;

(5,y) and (10,-3)

We have ;

d = √(5-10)^2 + (y + 3)^2

d = √(y+ 3)^2 + 25

from the question, these two distances are equal

all we have to do here is to equate the two distances

So we have it that;

(y-4)^2 + 16 = (y + 3)^2 + 25

y^2 -8y + 16 + 16 = y^2 + 6y + 9 + 25

-8y + 32 = 6y + 34

-8y -6y = 34-32

-14y = 2

y = -2/14

y = -1/7

A table tennis ball has a radius of 2 cm. There are 3 table tennis balls stacked on top of one another in a cylinder that has the same diameter as the table tennis balls. The table tennis balls reach the top and bottom of the cylinder. How much volume is left inside the cylinder when the container is full?

Answers

Answer:

Volume left = 16π cm³ or 50.265 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first find the surface area of the tennis ball.

S.A = (4/3)πr³

Radius of a ball = 2 cm

Thus;

S.A = (4/3)π(2)³

S.A = 32π/3

Since there are 3 radius balls that will make the cylinder full, then;

Surface area of 3 balls = 3 × 32π/3 = 32π

Now, formula for volume of cylinder is;

V = πr²h

r = 2 cm

h = 4 × 3 = 12 (since diameter of tennis ball is 4 cm)

Thus;

V = π × 2² × 12

V = 48π

Thus;

Volume left = Volume of cylinder - surface area of 3 balls = 48π - 32π = 16π cm³ or 50.265 cm³

Calculate the measure of angle P:

Answers

Answer:

122.3 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the measure, we use the appropriate method

The method we are going to use here is the cosine rule

We have the general form as;

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 -2bc Cos A

where a = 25

b = 9 and c = 19

Substituting these values;

25^2 = 9^2 + 19^2 - 2(9)(19) Cos A

183 = -342 cos A

cos A = -183/342

cos A = -0.54

A = arc cos -0.54

A = 57.65 ( since cosine is negative in the second quadrant, then the value will be 180 - 57.65

= 122.35

geometric

common ratio 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the sequence is not arithmetic

3-2 =1

2-4/3 = 6/3 -4/3 = 2/3

The common difference is not the same

Now check geometric

The common ratio:

Take the second term over the first term

2/3

Now take the third term over the second term

4/3 ÷ 2

4/3 * 1/2 = 2/3

The common ratio is the same so the sequence is geometric with a common ratio of 2/3

Students at a local high school travel to school by car, bus, and bicycle. 1/5 of the 825 students Tavel by car, 48% of the students travel by bus, 0.08 of the students travel by bicycle. The remaining students travel to school by walking. How many students walk to the local high school?

Answers

Answer:

198 students walk to the local high school

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number students = 825

1/5 of the students travel by car

48% of the students travel by bus

0.08 of the students travel by bicycle

To find the number of students who wal to school we have to find the exact number of students who travel to school by car, bus and bicycle and subtract the result from the total number of students

Students who travel by car = 1/5×825

= 165 students

Students who travel by bus = 48% × 825

= 48/100 × 825

= 12/25 × 825

= 396 students

Students who travel by bicycle = 0.08 × 825

= 66

So now we add the results fo the equations above and subtract it from the total number of students to get the number of students that walk to school

Students that walk to school = 825 - (165 + 396 + 66)

= 825 - 627

= 198 students

Therefore 198 students walk to the local high-school

Divide each side by -6

–6(2 + a) / -6 = –48/-6

2+a = 8

Subtract 2 from each side

2+a-2 = 8-2

a = 6

-6(2 + a) = -48

The -6 can be distributed.

-12 - 6a = -48
-6a = -48 + 12
-6a/-6 = -36/-6

Double negatives make a positive.

12. The local regional transit authority of a large city was interested in determining the mean
commuting time for workers who drive to work. They selected a random sample of 125
workers who drive to work and asked them how long they spent commuting to work in
minutes). A 95% confidence interval was constructed and reported as (27.74, 30.06).
(a) Show that the conditions for calculating a confidence interval for a mean are satisfied.
(b) Interpret the interval in the context of this problem.

Answers

1. We conclude that the conditions for calculating a confidence interval for a mean are satisfied.

2. Since interval was constructed and is reported, we assume that distribution of the sample mean is normal.

Do the conditions for a mean confidence interval calculation hold?

Let x be the sample mean

Let s be the sample standard deviation

Let n be the sample size

Let α be the significance level

Let Z be the standard normal distribution value.

To determine if conditions for calculating confidence interval for a mean are met, we have to check the followings:

1. Random sampling:

The sample of 125 workers was selected randomly.

2. Independence:

We assume that each worker's commuting time is independent of each other.

3. Sample size:

n = 125 > 30. This satisfies the condition for the central limit theorem to apply.

4. Normality:

The 95% confidence interval was constructed using the formula x ± Zα/2(s/√n).

Since interval was constructed and is reported, we can assume that the distribution of the sample mean is approximately normal. Therefore, we can conclude that the conditions for calculating a confidence interval for a mean are satisfied.
