Please give explanation

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent that number.

  (2 +n)/(5 +n) = 5/6 . . . . . . . . n is added to numerator and denominator

  6(2 +n) = 5(5 +n) . . . . . . . . . multiply by 5(5+n)

  12 +6n = 25 +5n . . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  n = 13 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 5n+12

Adding 13 to each term will give 5/6.

__

Check

  (2 +13)/(5 +13) = 15/18 = (3·5)/(3·6) = 5/6

_____

Alternate solution

The difference of denominator and numerator in 2/5 is 5-2 = 3. The difference of denominator and numerator in 5/6 is 6-5 = 1. In order to make the latter difference 3, we must have (3/3)(5/6) = 15/18. We can get 15/18 from 2/5 by adding 13 to numerator and denominator.

A group of 2 adults and 4 children spent $38 on tickets to a museum. A group of 3 adults and 3 children spent $40.50 on tickets to the museum. Based on this information, how much is an adult ticket, and how much is a child ticket?

Answers

Answer:

adult $8.00

child $5.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of 1 adult ticket = x.

Let the price of 1 child ticket = y.

2x + 4y = 38

3x + 3y = 40.5

Multiply the first equation by 3. Multiply the second equation by -2. Then add them.

         6x + 12y = 114

(+)      -6x - 6y = -81

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

                  6y = 33

y = 33/6

y = 5.5

2x + 4y = 38

2x + 4(5.5) = 38

2x + 22 = 38

2x = 16

x = 8

Answer:

adult $8.00

child $5.50

Answer:

An adult ticket is $8.00 and a child's ticket is $5.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

We form a system of 2 equations and solve them.

Let a be the price of adult ticket and c the price of a child's.

2a + 4c = 38         (A)

3a + 3c = 40.5      (B)

Multiply equation A by 3 and equation B by -2:

6a + 12c = 114

-6a - 6c = -81        Adding these 2 equations:

0 + 6c = 33

c = 33/6 = 5.5.

Now we substitute for c in equation A:

2a + 4(5.5) = 38

2a = 38 - 22

2a = 16

a = 6.

Let's now check these results by substitution in equation B:

3a + 3c = 40.5

3(8) + 3(5.5) = 24.0 + 16.5 = 40.5

- so it checks out.

An old-fashioned Chinese restaurant offers a family dinner where you get to choose one dish from “column A” (which has 8 dishes), one dish from “column B” (which has 10 dishes) and one dish from “column C” (which has 5 dishes). How many different family dinners can be chosen?

There are ___ possible dinners.

Answers

Answer:

There are 400 possible dinners.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 8 dishes to choose from column A. For each of these 8 dishes, there are 10 dishes to pair with. For each of these 10 dishes, there are 5 dishes to go with from column C.

Therefore, multiply to get [tex]8\cdot 10\cdot 5=\boxed{400}[/tex] possible dinners.

*Note: Since the order of which you choose is fixed, we do not need to account for rearrangements of the same three dishes.

I need to verify this function is symmetric with respect to the y-axis. How would I go about doing that? Function: x^4-5x^2+3

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(x) = x^4-5x^2+3[/tex] is symmetric to the y-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x) = x^4-5x^2+3[/tex]

Required

Determine if it is symmetric

First, we check if the function is even by calculating f(-x)

[tex]f(x) = x^4-5x^2+3[/tex]

[tex]f(-x) = (-x)^4-5*(-x)^2+3[/tex]

[tex]f(-x) = x^4-5*x^2+3[/tex]

We have:

[tex]f(x) = f(-x) = x^4-5*x^2+3[/tex]

This implies that the function is even, and even functions are symmetric to the y-axis.

Hence:

[tex]f(x) = x^4-5x^2+3[/tex] is symmetric to the y-axis

given the preimage and image, find the dilation scale factor​

Answers

Given:

The preimage and image of a triangle in the given figure.

To find:

The dilation scale factor.

Solution:

From the given figure it is clear that the vertices of the triangle ABC are A(-2,-2), B(-1,2) and C(2,1).

The vertices of the triangle A'B'C' are A'(-4,-4), B'(-2,4) and C'(4,2).

If a figure is dilated by factor K with (0,0) as the center of dilation, then

[tex](x,y)\to (kx,ky)[/tex]

Let the scale factor be K, then the image of point A is:

[tex]A(-2,-2)\to A'(k(-2),k(-2))[/tex]

[tex]A(-2,-2)\to A'(-2k,-2k)[/tex]

From the given figure it is clear that the image of point A is A'(-4,-4).

[tex]A'(-2k,-2k)=A'(-4,-4)[/tex]

On comparing both sides, we get

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

[tex]k=\dfrac{-4}{-2}[/tex]

[tex]k=2[/tex]

Therefore, the dilation scale factor is 2.

Candice bought 6 dozen eggs and broke 9 eggs how many eggs did she have left

Answers

Answer:

63

Step-by-step explanation:

12x6=72

72-9=63

the answer is 63

Answer: 63 eggs


Step 1: Find initial amount of eggs

Before we can solve for how many eggs are left, we must first find out how many eggs Candice initially had. We are told she bought six dozen eggs. Since a dozen is twelve, we can find out how many eggs she had by multiplying twelve and six. Let’s do this now.

6×12= 72

Step 2: Find solution

Now let’s solve for how many eggs Candice has left. We know that she bought 72 eggs, and that she broke 9. To find the answer, we need to subtract 9 from 72.

72-9= 63

Six teachers and 12 students volunteer for a committee to discuss extra-curricular activities. How many committees of 5 people can be made if:

a) there must be exactly 3 students on the committee

b) there must be at least one teacher and at least one student on the committee

Answers

Answer:

a) 11,880

b) 7,770

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of teachers that volunteer = 6 teachers

The number of students that volunteer = 12 students

The number of people in the committee = 5 people

a) The exact number of student on the committee = 3 student

Therefore, the number of teachers in the committee of 5 = 5 - 3 = 2

The number of teachers in the committee = 2 teachers

We get;

The number of committees that can be made = ₁₂C₃ × ₆C₂ = 792×15 = 11,880

b) When there is at least one teacher and at least one student on the committee, we have;

₁₂C₄ × ₆C₁ + ₁₂C₃ × ₆C₂ + ₁₂C₂ × ₆C₃ + ₁₂C₁ × ₆C₄ = 7,770

The number of committees having at least one teacher and at least one student = 7,770

Melinda walked to the mall at 4 miles per hour and then rode back home in a bus at 24 miles per hour. If her total traveling time was 14 hours, how far was it to the mall?

Answers

Given:

Melinda walked to the mall at 4 miles per hour and then rode back home in a bus at 24 miles per hour.

Total traveling time was 14 hours.

To find:

The distance between Melinda's house and mall.

Solution:

Formula used:

[tex]Time=\dfrac{Distance}{Speed}[/tex]

Let x miles be the distance between Melinda's house and mall.

Melinda walked to the mall at 4 miles per hour. So, the time taken by Melinda is [tex]\dfrac{x}{4}[/tex] hours.

Speed of bus is 24 miles per hour. So, the time taken by bus is [tex]\dfrac{x}{24}[/tex] hours.

Total traveling time was 14 hours.

[tex]\dfrac{x}{4}+\dfrac{x}{24}=14[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{6x+x}{24}=14[/tex]

[tex]7x=14\times 24[/tex]

Divide both sides by 7.

[tex]\dfrac{7x}{7}=\dfrac{14\times 24}{7}[/tex]

[tex]x=2\times 24[/tex]

[tex]x=48[/tex]

Therefore, the mall is 48 miles far from Melinda's house.

Malala is following this recipe for bread rolls.
She uses 500ml of water.
How much of each ingredient does she use?

Recipe: Makes 15 bread rolls.
480g flour
12g salt
6g yeast
30ml oil
600ml water

Answers

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

500 is roughly about 83% of 600 (we know this because 500/600 = 0.833)

If she is following the recipe, then if she is using 83% of the water shown in the recipe, then she will be putting in about 83% of every ingredient.

480 * 0.83 = 398g flour

12 * 0.83 = 9.96g salt

6 * 0.83 = 4.98g yeast

30 * 0.83 = 24.9ml oil

Answer:

3x^2 + x^4 - x^3 + 3 - 6x

Step-by-step explanation:

Find Least Common Multiplier of 3x^(2)-3x / 3x^(3)-6x^(2)+3x to 1 / x-1

3x^2 - 3 . x/3 x^3 - 6x^2 + 3x

Apply exponent rule: a^b + c = a^b a^c

x^2 = xx, x^3 x/3 = xx^2, x^2 = xx

= 3xx - 3xxx - 6xx + 3x

Rewrite -6 as 2 . 3

= 3xx - 3xxx + 2 . 3xx + 3x

Factor out common term 3x

= 3x(x - x^2(x/3) -2x + 1)

= 3x(- x^3/3 - x + 1)

Multiply each factor with the highest power:

(- x^3/3 - x + 1) . 3 . (1/x - 1\) . x

Simplify

3x^2 + x^4 - x^3 + 3 - 6x

Note that 92 and 128 are 3 standard deviations from the mean

The emperical rule or the  68–95–99.7 rule states that 68% of outcomes are wihtin 1 standard deviation from the mean

95% of outcomes are within 2 standard deviations from the mean

99.7% of outcomes are within 3 standard devations from the mean

This is 3 standard deviations so the answer is 99.7

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The trick here is to find the height. The answer is

height = sin(180 - 97) * 11

The height is found by finding the supplement of 97, taking the sin of that angle and multiplying by 11.

There is a drawing required. You need to extend ZY until a line from x meets ZY (extended) at right angles. When that happens you find the sine of the supplement.

height = sin(83)*11

height = 10.92

Now use the standard area formula.

Area = base (ZY) * height / 2

base = 6

height = 10.92

Area = 6 * 10.92 /2

Area = 32.75
