Saw a board 5 ft 1 in. Long into six equal pieces. If the loss per cut is 1/5 in., how long will each piece be?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The length of each piece is 0.833 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of board, L = 5 ft 1 inch

loss per cut = 1/5 inch

The board should be cut by 5 times to get the 6 pieces.

The loss in 5 cuts = 5 x 1/5 = 1 inch

So, the length of each piece is

[tex]L' =\frac{5 ft 1 in - 1in }{6}\\\\L' =\frac{5}{6}\\\\L' = 0.833 ft[/tex]

Answer 2

The length of each piece is 9 13/15 inches.

What is the length of each piece?

The first step is to determine the length of the board in inches. In order to do this, feet should be converted to inches.

1 feet = 12 inches

(12 x 5) + 1 = 61 inches

Total losses of the 6 cuts = 1/5 x 6 = 6/5 = 1 1/5 inches

Total length left = 61 inches - 1 1/5 inches = 59 1/5 inches

Length of each board = 59 1/5 ÷ 6

296 / 5 x 1/6 = 296 /30 = 9 26/30 = 9 13/15 inches

1. Brad spent $1,200 on a credit card this
month. The credit card charges 24.77%
interest compounded continuously. If
Brad does not have to pay any monthly
minimums and makes no payments, how
long will it take until Brad owes the
credit card company $2,400?

Answers

Answer:

about 3 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the compound interest formula;

A = P(1+r)^t

Given

Amount A == $2400

Principal P = $1200

rate = 24.77% = 0.2477

Substitute the given values

2400 = 1200(1+0.2477)^t

2400/1200 = (1+0.2477)^t

2 = (1+0.2477)^t

ln 2 = tln1.2477

t = ln2/ln1.2477

t = 3.13

Hence it will take about 3 years  until Brad owes the  credit card company $2,400

given log base3 4 = log base 1/27 k , find the value of k .​

Answers

Answer:

k =0.156

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

We Have To apply Just some Basic Properties of log here.

[tex]log_{3}4 = log_{1/27}k\\\frac{log_{}4 }{log_{}3 } = \frac{log_{}k }{log_{}1/27 }\\\\\frac{log_{}4 }{log_{}3 } = \frac{log_{}k }{log_{}1-log_{27} }\\\\frac{log_{}4 }{log_{}3 } = \frac{log_{}k }{0-3*0.4771} }\\\[/tex]

0.620/0.4771 = ㏒k / -1.4313

㏒k = -1.86

k = anti㏒(-1.86)

k =0.156

Total mass of steel marble

= 66×20

= 1320 g

Total mass of 68 marble including steel 20 and glass 48

What are the next 3 terms in the following geometric sequence:

B. 1024, 2048, 4096

C. 64, 32, 16

D. 32, 8, 2

Answers

Answer:

C. 64, 32, 16

Step-by-step explanation:

This geometric sequence is made by dividing the numbers by 2:

512 ÷ 2 = 256

256 ÷ 2 = 128

Hence, the next term will be

128 ÷ 2 = 64

64 ÷ 2 = 32

32 ÷ 2 = 16

Therefore, the correct answer is C.

The next 3 terms in the given geometric sequence are 64, 32, and 16, respectively. The correct option is C.

What is geometrical series?

A geometric series is the collection of an unlimited number of terms with a fixed ratio between them.

The given series is a geometric sequence, therefore, the common ratio between any two terms will be the same. Therefore, we can write, the ratio as,

Common ratio, r = a₂ / a₁ = 256 / 512 = 1/2

Now, the nth term of the given sequence can be defined as,

aₙ = a₁ × r⁽ⁿ⁻¹⁾

   = 512 × (1/2)⁽ⁿ⁻¹⁾

Therefore, the next term of the given geometric progression will be,

a₄ = 512 × (1/2)³ = 64

a₅ = 512 × (1/2)⁴ = 32

a⁶ = 512 × (1/2)⁵ = 16

Hence, the next 3 terms in the given geometric sequence are 64, 32, and 16, respectively.

Farida bought 20 stamps consisting of 20 sen stamps and 60 sen stamps. The total cost of the stamps is RM8.80. How many 20 sej stamps did Farida buy?

Answers

Answer:

# of 20cent stamps = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the  number 20cent stamps be = x

Let the number 60 cents stamps be = y

Total number of stamps => 20 = x + y ----------- ( 1 )

Total cost of the stamps = 8.80

That is, 0.20x + 0.60y = 8.80 ------------- ( 2 )

      ( 2 ) => 20x + 60y = 880

            => x + 3y = 44

           =>  x = 44 - 3y

Substitute x in  ( 1 ) => x  +  y = 20

                                 44 - 3y + y = 20

                                     - 2y = 20 - 44

                                     - 2y = - 24

                                       2y = 24

                                       y = 12

Substitute y = 12 in  ( 1 ) => x + y = 20

                                         x + 12 = 20

                                            x = 8

Simplify by factorising first

Answers

Answer:

x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the numerator

list the factors of 16

16: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16

look for two factors that add up to the b value

in this case it is 18

by looking at the factors 2 and 8 add up 10

so you can rewrite the numerator as [tex]x^{2}+2x+8x+16[/tex]

Split the trinomial into two separate binomials each having one of the factors that add up to 10

So it should be [tex]x^{2} +2x and 8x+16[/tex]

Factor both binomials

you can factor an x from the first one

Then it is x(x+2)

Factor an 8 from the second one

8(x+2)

So it should be [tex]x(x+2) 8(x+2)[/tex]

This can rewritten as (x+8)(x+2)

So now you have [tex]\frac{(x+2)(x+8)}{x+2)}[/tex]

simplify it by canceling out the two (x+2)'s

this is because (x+2)/(x+2) is 1

Finally you get x+8

Assume that an advertiser wants to verify that 20% share value by conducting its own survey, and a pilot survey begins with 11 households have TV sets in use at the time of a September Road broadcast. Find the probability that none of the households are tuned to September Road. P(none)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(none) = 0.0859[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]p =20\%[/tex] --- proportion of household that tuned to September

[tex]n =11[/tex] --- selected households

Required

[tex]P(none)[/tex]

Using the complement rule, the proportion that did not tune (q) is:

[tex]q= 1 - p[/tex]

[tex]q= 1 - 20\%[/tex]

[tex]q= 1 - 0.20[/tex]

[tex]q= 0.80[/tex]

So, the probability that none of the 11 tuned in is:

[tex]P(none) = q^{11}[/tex]

[tex]P(none) = 0.80^{11}[/tex]

[tex]P(none) = 0.0859[/tex]
