PLEASE HELP!!
Wesley initially filled a measuring cup with 5/6 of a cup of syrup from a large jug. Then he poured 1/2 of a cup back into the jug. How much syrup remains in the measuring cup?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2/6 or 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We start off with 5/6 of a cup of syrup in a measuring cup.

Then Wesley pours out 1/2 of the syrup in the measuring cup.

Our equation looks like this:

5/6 - 1/2 = ?

However, we can't use this equation because the denominators (6 & 2) aren't the same. So we will find the LCD (least common denominator).

Mulitiples of 6: 6, 12, 18, 24

Multiples of 2: 2, 4, 6, 8

6 is the LCD for the both of them.

Multiply 3 to the numerator and denominator of 1/2 (because to get from 2 to 6 using multiplication, you mulitiply 3)

1/2 x 3/3 = 3/6

Now we can substitue 3/6 into our original equation and solve it:

5/6 - 3/6 = 2/6

It's better to use the simplified answer, 1/3.

Hope it helps and good luck (●'◡'●)

4. Andrés desea embaldosar el piso de su casa que tiene 375 cm de ancho y 435 cm de largo. Calcula la longitud del lado que tendrían las baldosas. ¿Cuántas baldosas colocaría en total?

Answers

Answer:

Sabemos que el piso es un rectángulo de 435 cm de largo y 375 cm de ancho.

Recordar que para un rectángulo de largo L, y ancho W, el área es:

A = L*W

Entonces el área del piso, será:

A = 435cm*375cm = 163,125 cm^2

Primero, sabemos que se utilizaran baldosas (las cuales son cuadradas) y queremos saber la longitud de lado que tendrían las baldosas.

No tenemos ningún criterio para encontrar este lado, solo que (si queremos usar un número entero de baldosas) el largo L del lado de la baldosa deberá ser un divisor de tanto el ancho como el largo del suelo.

Dicho de otra forma

el largo, 435cm, tiene que ser múltiplo de L

el ancho, 375cm, tiene que ser múltiplo de L.

Por ejemplo, ambos números son múltiplos de 5, entonces podríamos tomar L = 5cm

En este caso, el área de cada baldosa es:

a = L^2 = 5cm*5cm = 25cm^2

Y el número total de baldosas que necesitaría usar esta dado por el cociente entre el área del suelo y el area de cada baldosa.

N = ( 163,125 cm^2)/(25cm^2) = 6,525 baldosas.

También sabemos que ambos números (435cm y 375cm) son múltiplos de 15cm

Entonces las baldosas podrían tener 15cm de lado.

En este caso, el área de cada baldosa es:

A = (15cm)^2 = 225cm

En este caso el número total de baldosas necesarias será:

N =  ( 163,125 cm^2)/(225cm^2) = 725 baldosas.

In an extensive study involving thousands of British children, Arden and Plomin (2006) found significantly higher variance in the intelligence scores for males than for females. Following are hypothetical data, similar to the results obtained in the study. Note that the scores are not regular IQ scores but have been standardized so that the entire sample has a mean of M 5 10 and a standard deviation of s 5 2. a. Calculate the mean and the standard deviation for the sample of n 5 8 females and for the sample of n 5 8 males. b. Based on the means and the standard deviations, describe the differences in intelligence scores for males and females.

Answers

Answer:

mean value of female = 10.000

standard deviation of female = 1.604

mean value of male = 10.000

standard deviation of male = 2.449

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

n=8 females

n=8 males

The objective is to find the mean and deviation and also based on the mean and the standard deviation have to describe the differences in intelligence scores for males and females

Solution:

The mean and the standard deviation are found by using MINITAB

The MINITAB procedure is explained as follows,

Step 1

choosing start > Basic statistics > Display Descriptive Statistics

Step 2

In variables supposed to enter the columns Female and Male

Step 3

Here choosing option statistics and select Mean and standard deviation

Step 4

Finally clicking OK

MINITAB output is as follows,

variable Mean standard deviation

Female 10.000 1.604

Male 10.000 2.449

b)

From the MINITAB output the mean are same for females and males.

Here the standard deviation of females is less than the standard deviation of males. That is the male scores are more variable when compared to female scores.

Answers

A=53/24 and B=32/10

|A| = |53/24| = 53/24
|B| = |32/10| = 32/10
AB = 53/24 * 32/10 = 1,696/240


|A| * |B| = |AB|
|53/24| * |32/10| = |1,696/240|
53/24 * 32/10 = 1,696/240
1,696/240 = 1,696/240

David is paid a salary of $1850 per month. He is also paid time and a half for work in excess of 40 hours a week. He worked 62 hours last week. What is his gross pay?

Answers

Answer:

$1,471.5625

Step-by-step explanation:

Monthly salary = $1850

Weekly salary = $1850/4 weeks

= $462.5

Hourly rate = $462.5/40 hours

= $11.5625

Overwork time = 62 hours - 40 hours

= 22 hours

Time and a half = 1.5 times the normal salary

Overwork time payment per hour = 1.5 × $11.5625

= $17.34375

Overwork time payment for 22 hours = 22 × $17.34375

= $381.5625

Last week salary = weekly salary + overtime payment

= $462.5 + $381.5625

= $84.0625

Gross salary for the month = 3 weeks regular salary + last week salary

= (3 × $462.5) + $84.0625

= $1387.5 + $84.0625

= $1,471.5625

System of Equations

Answers

Answer:

(- 1, - 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

x = 4y + 3 → (1)

2x + y = - 3 → (2)

Substitute x = 4y + 3 into (2)

2(4y + 3) + y = - 3 ← distribute parenthesis and simplify left side

8y + 6 + y = - 3

9y + 6 = - 3 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

9y = - 9 ( divide both sides by 9 )

y = - 1

Substitute y = - 1 into (1) for corresponding value of x

x = 4(- 1) + 3 = - 4 + 3 = - 1

solution is (- 1, - 1 )

A. There are infinitely many solutions

B. (-4, 1)

Marcella incarica Dora di aiutarla a suddividere 35 perle tra le sue tre figlie. Alla figlia maggiore vuole regalare la metà, alla mediana la terza parte e alla minore la nona parte. Inoltre Marcella vuole dare una perla a Dora come ricompensa. Quante perle riceverà ciascuna figlia?

Answers

Answer:

La hija mayor recibirá 17.5 perlas, la hija del medio recibirá 11.66 perlas, y la hija menor recibirá 3.88 perlas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dado que Marcella le pide a Dora que la ayude a dividir 35 perlas entre sus tres hijas, y quiere darle la mitad a la hija mayor, la tercera parte a la del medio y la novena a la menor y, además, Marcella quiere darle una perla a Dora como recompensa, para determinar cuántas perlas recibirá cada hija se debe realizar el siguiente cálculo:

35 / 2 = Mayor = 17.5 perlas

35 / 3 = Medio = 11.66 perlas

35 / 9 = Menor = 3.88 perlas

Así, la hija mayor recibirá 17.5 perlas, la hija del medio recibirá 11.66 perlas, y la hija menor recibirá 3.88 perlas.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1). 2x + y = 12 -----(1)

   x = 9 - 2y -------(2)

   By substituting the value of x from equation (2) to equation (1)

   2(9 - 2y) + y = 12

   18 - 4y + y = 12

   18 - 3y = 12

   3y = 18 - 12

   y = 2

   By substituting the value of x in equation (2)

    x = 9 - 2(2)

    x = 9 - 4

    x = 5

2). x + 2y = 9 ------(1)

    2x + 4y = 20

    x + 2y = 10 -------(2)

    Since, both the equations are the parallel equations,

    Therefore, No solutions will be the answer.

3). x + 3y = 16 -------(1)

    2x - y = 11 ---------(2)

    Multiply equation (2) by 3 the add to equation (1)

    6x - 3y + (x + 3y) = 16 + 33

    7x = 49

     x = 7

     From equation (1),

     7 + 3y = 16

     3y = 9

     y = 3

4). y = 11 - 2x -------(1)

    4x - 3y = -13 -------(2)

    By substituting the value of y from equation (1) to (2),

    4x - 3(11 - 2x) = -13

     4x - 33 + 6x = -13

     10x = 33 - 13

     10x = 20

     x = 2

      From equation (1)

     y = 11 - 2(2)

    y = 7

5). y = 10 + x -------(1)

    -3x + 3y = 30

    -x + y = 10

     y = 10 + x ------(2)

    Equations (1) and (2) are same.

    Therefore, Infinite solutions will be the answer.

6). 2x + y = 11 --------(1)

    x - 2y = -7 ---------(2)

    Multiply equation (1) by 2 then add to equation (2)

    4x + 2y + (x - 2y) = 22 - 7

    5x = 15

    x = 3

    From equation (2)

    3 - 2y = -7

    2y = 3 + 7

     y = 5

Michele was making tuna salad for a party. The recipe for 10 servings called for 8 oz of mayonnaise. A total of 240 people were expected to be at the brunch. How much mayonnaise would Michele need?

Answers

1. Divide 240 by 10 = 24

2. Multiply 24 • 8 = 192

Michele will need 192 oz. of mayonnaise.

Answer:

192 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

1) Create a proportion

[tex]\frac{8 (oz)}{10(servings)} =\frac{x(mayo)}{240(servings)} \\\frac{8}{10} =\frac{x}{240}[/tex]

2) Solve for x

[tex]\frac{8}{10} =\frac{x}{240}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 240

[tex]\frac{8}{10} *240=x\\192=x[/tex]

Therefore, Michele would need 192 oz of mayonnaise.
