Some time ago , Keith's height and his nephew's height were at a ratio of 15:7. Then, Keiths height increased by 16% and his nephew,s height doubled. Keith is now 34 cm taller than his nephew, what is their total current height

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of Keith's height and his nephew's height is 15:7. Let keith height be x cm and his nephews height be y cm.

[tex]\frac{x}{y}=\frac{15}{7} \\x=\frac{15}{7}y[/tex]

Keiths height increased by 16% , therefore Keith new height is (100% + 16%) × x = 1.16x

The nephew height is doubled, therefore his new height is 2y.

Given that Keith is now 34 cm taller than his nephew

1.16x = 2y + 34

but x = (15/7)y

[tex]1.16(\frac{15}{7} )y=2y+34\\\\\frac{87}{35} y=2y+34\\\\\frac{87}{35} y-2y=34\\\\\frac{17}{35}y=34\\ \\y=\frac{34*35}{17}\\ \\y=70\ cm[/tex]

The nephews new height = 2y = 2(70) = 140 cm

Keith new height = 2y + 34 = 140 + 34 = 174 cm

Their total current height = 140 cm + 174 cm = 314 cm

Answers

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex](5, 7), (7, 11). (9, 14). (11, 18)[/tex]

Required

Determine if the function is quadratic

[tex](5, 7), (7, 11). (9, 14). (11, 18)[/tex]

Start by representing the function as an x-y table

x:-  5 || 7 || 9 || 11

y:-  7 ||  11 || 14 || 18

Next; Calculate the difference between the values of y

[tex]Difference: 11 - 7 = 4[/tex]

[tex]Difference: 14 - 11 = 3[/tex]

[tex]Difference: 18 - 4 = 4[/tex]

The resulting difference are: 4 || 3 || 4

Next; Calculate the difference between the difference of values of y

[tex]Difference = 3 - 4 = -1[/tex]

[tex]Difference = 4 - 3 = 1[/tex]

The resulting difference are: -1 || 1

For the function to be quadratic, the above difference must be the same and since they are not, then the function does not represent a quadratic function.

Answers

Answer:

(A) [tex]y = x+3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the values of (-6, -3), (3,6), and (5,8) we can substitute the values into each equation and see if the equation meets the requirements for all 3.

Let's test A first.

[tex]-3 = -6+3[/tex]

Correct, let's try the second pair.

[tex]6 = 3+3[/tex]

Correct, let's try the third pair.

[tex]8 = 5+3[/tex]

So yes, this equation works.

For fun, let's try the other equations.

Let's test B.

[tex]-3 = -6-3[/tex]

This is not true as -6 -3 = -9. So this equation is immediately ruled out.

Let's test C.

[tex]-3 = 2\cdot-6[/tex]

Again this doesn't work, as -6 times 2 is -12. So this equation is also ruled out.

Let's try D.

[tex]-3 = \frac{1}{2}\cdot-6[/tex]

This works, as half of -6 is -3 - however the equation will only work if all 3 pairs work for it.

Let's try the second pair.

[tex]6 = \frac{1}{2}\cdot3[/tex]

This doesn't work, as half of 3 is 1.5. This equation is also ruled out.

Therefore, A is the only equation that works with these pairs.

Hope this helped!

Answer: D.  f(x) = (x+6)(x+6)

Set (x+6)(x+6) equal to zero and solve each equation for x. We really only have one equation and it would be x+6 = 0 which solves to x = -6.

Plug x = -6 into f(x) and you would get f(x) = 0.

There are $20n$ members in the Trumpington marching band, and when they line up in rows of 26, there are 4 band members left over. If $n$ is an integer and there are fewer than 1000 band members, what is the maximum number of people that could be in the Trumpington marching band?

Answers

Answer:

992

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 1000 by 26.

The answer is 38 and some left over. We don't care what the leftover is because it is nearly 0.5 and that means 13 people were left over.

Take the integer value (38) and multiply it by 26. You get 988.

You want there to be 4 left over. 4 + 988 = 992. That's one way of doing the problem.

Answer: 940 people is the maximum

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

Explanation:

n = 1 means 20n = 20*1 = 20 members total, which is 4 short of making a row of 26 (so the remainder is 20)

n = 2 means 20n = 20*2 = 40 members. 40/26 = 1 remainder 14. We could make one full row with 14 members left over.

20n < 1000 solves to n < 50 after dividing both sides by 20. This means n is smaller than 50. It has to be larger than 0 or else 20n would be 0 or negative. We can write 0 < n < 50 to specify the range for n.

Since n < 50, this means the largest n can get is n = 49.

--------------------

If n = 49, then 20n = 20*49 = 980

980/26 = 37 remainder 18, which isn't the remainder we want (of 4).

If n = 48, then 20n = 20*48 = 960

960/26 = 36 remainder 24, again not the remainder we want

If n = 47, then 20n = 20*47 = 940

940/26 = 36 remainder 4

If we have 940 members, then we can form 36 rows (26 in each row). So 26*36 = 936 people so far. Then we have 940-936 = 4 people left over.

There are other solutions as well such as n = 34, n = 21, and n = 8. Though n = 47 is the largest n possible to fit all the conditions required.

Step-by-step explanation:

given series

1/4, 1/16,1/64.1/256

this is geometric series

where common ratio   r is given by

nth term/ (n-1)th term

let the second term is nth term and first term is (n-1)th term

r = 1/16 / (1/4) = 1/4

___________________________________________

sum of series is given by

a (1-r^n)/1-r

where a is first term

n is the number of terms

r is the common ration

___________________________________________

in the given series

1/4, 1/16,1/64.1/256

a = 1/4

r = 1/4

n = 4

thus ,

sum = 1/4(1-(1/4)^4)/ (1-1/4)

sum = 1/4(1-(1/256)/(4-1)/4

sum = 1/4((256-1)/256 / 3/4

1/4 in numerator and denominator gets cancelled

For a sample of eight bears, researchers measured the distances around the bears' chests and weighed the bears. Minitab was used to find that the value of the linear correlation coefficient is r=0.989. Using alph=0.05, determine if there is a linear correlation between chest size and weight. What proportion of the variation in weight can be explained by the linear relationship between weight and chest size?

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Correlation Coefficient (r) = 0.989

alph=0.05

Number of observations (n) = 8

determine if there is a linear correlation between chest size and weight.

Yes, there exists a linear relationship between chest size and weight as the value of the correlation Coefficient exceeds the critical value.

What proportion of the variation in weight can be explained by the linear relationship between weight and chest size?

To determine the the proportion of variation in weight that can be explained by the linear regression line between weight and chest size, we need to obtain the Coefficient of determination(r^2) of the model.

r^2 = square of the correlation Coefficient

r^2 = 0.989^2 = 0.978121

Hence, about 0.978 (97.8%) of the variation in weight can be explained by the linear relationship between weight and chest size.

it’s about 320 mile Drive from San Jose to Santa Barbara.

write an equation showing that the distance traveled on the first day plus the distance traveled on the second is equal to 425 miles

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance traveled the first day = Distance from San Jose to Santa Barbara = 320 mile.

The distance traveled the second day = Distance from Santa Barbara to Los Angeles.

But From San Jose to Los Angeles = 425 mile. Therefore:

Distance From San Jose to Los Angeles =  Distance from San Jose to Santa Barbara +  Distance from Santa Barbara to Los Angeles

425 = 320 +  Distance from Santa Barbara to Los Angeles.

Distance from Santa Barbara to Los Angeles = 425 - 320 = 105 mile

The distance traveled the second day = Distance from Santa Barbara to Los Angeles = 105 miles

The distance traveled the first day  + The distance traveled the second day = Distance from San Jose to Santa Barbara + Distance from Santa Barbara to Los Angeles = 320 + 105 = 425 miles

The distance traveled the first day  + The distance traveled the second day = 425 miles

$9500 is placed in an account that pays 9% interest compounded each year.

so, we get,

9% of 9500 is 855,

9500 plus 855 = 10335. (first year)

again,

9% of 10335 is 931.95,

and 10335+931.95 is 11286.95. (second year)

Write a formula that will give the area of the shaded region in the figure below .

Step-by-step explanation:

a=(29-2)*(12-3)

a=27*9

a=243ft²

Answer:

[tex]\Large \boxed{A = (29 - 2) \times (12 - 3)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the whole rectangle is 29 feet.

The width of the whole rectangle is 12 feet.

The length of the shaded region is 2 feet less than the length of the whole rectangle.

The width of the shaded region is 3 feet less than the width of the whole rectangle.

The area of a rectangle is length × width.

So we can create a formula to solve for the area of the shaded region:

A = (29 - 2) × (12 - 3)

Solving for the area.

A = 27 × 9

A = 243

The area of the shaded region is 243 feet².
