what is the value of x ?

Answers

Answer:

65dg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles are 180dg.

So 68dg + 47dg = 115dg.

-180dg - 115dg = 65dg.

So the missing length is 65 degrees.

Answer: 65

Step-by-step explanation:

Add both of the numbers on there. Then do 180- that number.

68+47=115

180+115=65

This is because in a triangle all the angles together equal 180.

Determine the minimum rotation (in degrees) which will carry the following figures onto itself (where all sides and verticles will match up). Assume this is a regular polygon. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

60°

Step-by-step explanation:

A full rotation is 360°. The figure has six sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Net of a cube

Fig. 1 is the net of a cube  

b. Does the formula work?

Tony's formula works if you ignore dimensions.

There are six squares in the net of a cube.

If each side has a unit length s, the total area of the cube is 6s.

c. Will the formula work for any rectangular prism?

No, because a rectangular prism has sides of three different lengths — l, w, and h — as in Fig. 2.

d. Area of a rectangular prism

A rectangular prism has six faces.

A top (T) and a bottom (b) — A = 2×l×w

A left (L) and a right (R)    —   A = 2×l×h

A front (F) and a back (B) —   A = 2×w×h

                                  Total area = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh

If l = 5 m, w = 6 m and h = 8 m,

[tex]\begin{array}{rl}A &=& \text{2$\times$ 5 m $\times$ 6 m + 2$\times$ 5 m $\times$ 8 m + 2 $\times$ 6 m $\times$ 8 m}\\&=& \text{60 m}^{2} + \text{80 m}^{2} + \text{96 m}^{2}\\&=& \textbf{236 m}^{2}\\\end{array}[/tex]

To determine the relative effectiveness of different study strategies for the SAT, suppose three groups of students are randomly selected: One group took the SAT without any prior studying; the second group took the SAT after studying on their own from a common study booklet available in the bookstore; and the third group took the SAT after completing a paid summer study session from a private test-prep company. The means and standard deviations of the resulting SAT scores from this hypothetical study are summarized below:
Using the following output:
we can conclude that:
(a) the data provide strong evidence that SAT scores are related to learning strategy.
(b) the data provide strong evidence that SAT scores are related to learning strategy in the following way: The mean SAT score for students who pay for coaching is higher than the mean SAT score for students who study themselves, which in turn is higher than that of students who do not study for the test.
(c) the data provide strong evidence that the three mean SAT scores (representing the three learning strategies) are not all equal.
(d) the data do not provide sufficient evidence that SAT scores are related to learning strategy.

Answers

Answer:

The value of e is -1 and f is -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps are :

[tex]2e - 3f = 4 - - - (1)[/tex]

[tex]2e - 5f = 8 - - - (2)[/tex]

[tex]2e - 3f - 2e - ( - 5f) = 4 - 8[/tex]

[tex]2f = - 4[/tex]

[tex]f = - 4 \div 2[/tex]

[tex]f = - 2[/tex]

[tex]substitute \: f = - 2 \: into \: (1)[/tex]

[tex]2e - 3( - 2) = 4[/tex]

To solve this system of equations by addition, our first goal is to cancel

out one of the variables by adding the two equations together.

However, before we add, we need to cancel out a variable.

I would choose to cancel out the e's.

To do this, we need a 2e and a -2e and

here we have a 2e in both equations.

If we multiply the second equation by -1 however,

that will give us the -2e we are looking for.

So we have (-1)(2e - 3f) = (4)(-1).

So rewriting both equations, our first equation stays the same

but our second equation becomes -2e + 3f = -4.

Notice that every term in the second

equation has been multiplied by -1.

2e - 3f = 4

-2e + 5f = -8

Now when we add the equations together,

the e's cancel and we have 2f = -4 so f = -2.

To find e, plug -2 back in for f in the

first equation to get 2e - 3(-2) = 4.

Solving from here, e = -1.

Note that e comes before f in our final answer, (-1, -2).

Step-by-step explanation:

The important thing to note here is that the backyard is a square. Since it's a square, all of its sides all equivalent in length. Thus, let's find the length of the sides. To do this, we use the area formula.

The formula for the area of a square is:

[tex]A=n^2[/tex]

Where n is a side. Since we know the area already, we can find n. Find n:

[tex]121=n^2\\n=11[/tex]

Since every side in a square are equivalent, all sides are 11 meters in length.

Therefore, each section of the fence should be 11 meters long.

Demerol 45mg and atropine 400mcg/ml give how much per ml to total volume to inject demerol contains 50mg/ml, atropine contains 400mcg/ml how much volume to inject

Answers

Answer:

Volume injected  = 1.65 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

mass of Demerol =45 mg.

density of pre-filled in syringe = 50 mg/ml

Volume = 45/50 = 0.9 ml

For atropine mass = 0.3 mg

density= 400 mcg/ml     [ Note : 1 mcg = 0.001 mg]

volume filled  = 0.3/400(0.001) = 0.75 ml

So, the total volume filled = 0.75+0.9 = 1.65 ml

The focus of a parabola is (3,-7) and the directrix is y = -4.
What is an equation of the parabola?

Answers

Answer:

  (a)  (x -3)^2 = -6(y +5.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola can be written as ...

  (x -h)^2 = 4p(y -k)

where (h, k) is the vertex, and p is the distance from the focus to the vertex.

The vertex is half-way between the focus and directrix, so is ...

  (h, k) = (1/2)((3, -7) +(3, -4)) = (3, -5.5)

The focus is at y=-7, and the vertex is at y=-5.5, so the distance between them is ...

  -7 -(-5.5) = -1.5

Then the equation for the parabola is ...

  (x -3)^2 = 4(-1.5)(y -(-5.5))

  (x -3)^2 = -6(y +5.5) . . . . matches the first choice

The length of the shadow of a pole on level ground increases by 90m when the angle of elevation of the sun changes from 58° to 36°.Calcule the height of the pole

Answers

Answer: Approximately 119.76 meters

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

Work Shown:

x = starting length of the shadow

y = height of the pole

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(58) = y/x

1.6003345 = y/x

1.6003345x = y

x = y/1.6003345

x = (1/1.6003345)y

x = 0.62486936y

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

When the angle changes, the adjacent side gets 90 meters longer

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(36) = y/(x+90)

0.72654253 = y/(0.62486936y+90)

0.72654253(0.62486936y+90) = y

0.453994166y + 65.3888277 = y

65.3888277 = y-0.453994166y

65.3888277 = 0.546005834y

0.546005834y = 65.3888277

y = 65.3888277/0.546005834

y = 119.758478075162

y = 119.76

The height of the pole is about 119.76 meters.

Let n be the number of five-digit positive integers which are divisible by 36 and have their tens digit and unit digit equal. Find n/100

Answers

Answer:

1.) 10044

2.) 100.44

Step-by-step explanation:

Since n is a number of five-digit positive integers which are divisible by 36, start multiplying 36 by number. Starting from 278.

Five digits numbers start from multiplying 36 by 278. Any multiplication below 278 by 36 will give four digits numbers.

36 × 278 = 10,008

36 × 279 = 10,044

10,044 tens digit and unit digit equal. Therefore n = 10044

To find n/100, divide 10044 by 100

10044 / 100 = 100.44

Given that T{X: 2<x ≤ 9} where x is an integer. what is n(T)

Answers

Answer:

n(T) = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the set T{X: 2<x ≤ 9} where x is an integer, the element of the set T will be {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}.  note that from the inequality set 2<x ≤ 9, x is not equal to 2 but greater than 2. The inequality can be divided into two as shown;

If 2<x ≤ 9 then 2<x and x≤9

If 2<x, this means x>2 but not equal to 2. This is the reason why 2 is not contained in the set T.

Similarly if x≤9, this shows that x can not be greater than 9 but less than or equal to 9.

Since the set T =  {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}, we are to find n(T). n(T) means cardinality of the set T and cardinality of a set is defined as the total number of element in a set.

Hence n()n(T) = 7 (since there are 7 elements in the set T)

Step-by-step explanation:

12t + 7y = x

t = number of hours he worked as a tutor

y = number of hours he worked as a waiter

x = the total amount of money he earned

t + y = 110

=> y = 110 - t

=> 12t + 7(110 - t) = x

=> 12t + 770 - 7t = x

=> 5t + 770 = x

My computer can download a movie in 5 hours. If I install an extra processor it can download the movie in 4 hours. How long, working alone, would it have taken the new extra processor to download the movie?

Answers

Answer:

20 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Computer download=5 hours

Computer + Extra processor=4 hours

Computer's rate =1/5 per hour

Computer + extra processor rate=1/4 per hour

Extras processor rate=1/x

Where,

x=how long it takes extra processor to get the job done on its own.

To find x, we have to solve the equation

1/5 + 1/x = 1/4

Subtract 1/5 from both sides

1/5 + 1/x -1/5 = 1/4-1/5

1/x=1/4-1/5

1/x = 5-4/20

1/x = 1/20

Cross product

1(20)=x(1)

20=x

x=20 hours

It would have taken the new extra processor alone 20 hours to download the movie

The digits of a two-digit number differ by 3. If the digits are interchanged, and the resulting number is added to the original number, we get 143. What can be the original number?

Answers

Answer:

The original number could be 85.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 2 digits be x and y.

Let the number be xy then, assuming that x is the larger digit:

x - y = 3.

x = y + 3

Also

10y + x + 10x + y = 143

Substituting for x:

10y + y + 3 + 10(y + 3) + y = 143

22y + 33 = 143

22y = 110

y = 5.

So x = y + 3 = 8.

Answer:

Let the unit digit be x and tens digit be x + 3

Therefore, the original number = 10(x + 3) + x

On interchanging, the number formed = 10x + x + 3

❍ According to Question now,

➥ 10(x + 3) + x + 10x + x + 3 = 143

➥ 10x + 30 + 12x + 3 = 143

➥ 22x + 33 = 143

➥ 22x = 143 - 33

➥ 22x = 110

➥ x = 110/22

x = 5

__________________...

Therefore,

The unit digit number = x = 5

The tens digit number = x + 3 = 5 + 3 = 8

__________________...

The original number = 10(x + 3) + x

The original number = 10(5 + 3) + 5

The original number = 50 + 30 + 5

The original number = 85

Hence,the original number is 85.
