Four friends bought books at a bookstore. The person who got the best deal has the lowest ratio of cost to number of books purchased. Book Purchases Name Total Cost Number of Books Jo $9 4 Kei $12 8 Kate $30 16 Bryn $8 4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Kei got the best deal.

Explanation:

The ratio of cost to number of books purchased for all of four friends will be.....

Jo ⇒  [tex]\frac{9}{4}[/tex], Kei ⇒ [tex]\frac{12}{8}[/tex] , Kate ⇒  [tex]\frac{30}{16}[/tex], Bryn ⇒ [tex]\frac{8}{4}[/tex]

From here you have to find the common denominator in this case is 16.

[tex]\frac{9}{4} =\frac{9*4}{4*4} =\frac{36}{16}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{12}{8} =\frac{12*2}{8*2} =\frac{24}{16}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{30}{16} =\frac{30*1}{16*1} =\frac{30}{16}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{8}{4} =\frac{8*4}{4*4} =\frac{32}{16}[/tex]

As you could tell the lowest is [tex]\frac{24}{16}[/tex] so the lowest is Kei.

4 football is kicked with a speed of 18.0 m/s at an angle of 36.9to the horizontal. 8. How long is the football in the air? Neglect air resistance. A ) 1.1 s B C ) 2.2 D) 3.3 E) 4.0

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  C)  2.2 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial vertical speed of the football is ...

  v = (18.0 m/s)sin(36.9°) ≈ 10.807 m/s

Since the ball starts and ends at ground level, its speed when it hits the ground is the same as its launch speed. That is, the acceleration due to gravity causes the velocity to change from +v to -v. The time required to do that is ...

  t = 2v/g = 2(10.807 m/s)/(9.8 m/s^2) = 21.614/9.8 s ≈ 2.206 s

The football is in the air about 2.2 seconds.

Answer:

[tex]f^{-1}[/tex](x) = [tex]\frac{x+1}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

let y = f(x) and rearrange making x the subject , that is

y = 5x - 1 ( add 1 to both sides )

y + 1 = 5x ( divide both sides by 5 )

[tex]\frac{y+1}{5}[/tex] = x

Change y back into terms of x , with x = [tex]f^{-1}[/tex] (x) , then

[tex]f^{-1}[/tex] (x) = [tex]\frac{x+1}{5}[/tex]

6. One thousand liters of a solution was available, but the solution was 65% alcohol. Barry needed a solution which was 50% alcohol. How many liters of alcohol had to be extracted so that the solution would be 50% alcohol?
SHOW YOUR WORK

Answers

Answer:

300 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

1000(0.65) = 650 liters of the solution was alcohol

1000.(1 - 0.65) = 350 liters was the other solute.

A 50% solution would have equal parts of each or 350 liters each.

650 - 350 = 300 liters of alcohol must be removed.

A cash register contains $10 bills and $50 bills with a total value of $1080.If there are 28 bills total, then how many of each does the register contain?

Answers

Answer:

8 ten dollar bills

20 fifty dollar bills

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of 10 dollar bills

y = number of 50 dollar bills

x+y = 28

10x+50y = 1080

Multiply the first equation by -10

-10x -10y = -280

Add this to the second equation

-10x -10y = -280

10x+50y = 1080

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

 40y = 800

Divide by 40

40y/40 = 800/40

y = 20

Now find x

x+y =28

x+20 = 28

x = 28-20

x= 8

On a map, the scale shown is 1 inch : 5 miles. If an island is 2.5 squire inches on the map, what is the actual area of the island? The actual island's area is square miles.​

Answers

Answer:

62.5 square miles

Step-by-step explanation:

if the scale is 1 in. = 5 mi, then 1 square in. = 25 square miles

so if 1 in^2 = 25 mi^2

then you make a proportion

25/1 = x/2.5

(the square inches on the bottom and the square miles on top)

solving for x gives you

x=62.5 square miles

The time it takes me to wash the dishes is uniformly distributed between 8 minutes and 17 minutes.

What is the probability that washing dishes tonight will take me between 14 and 16 minutes?

Give your answer accurate to two decimal places.

Answers

The time it takes to wash has the probability density function,

[tex]P(X=x) = \begin{cases}\frac1{17-8}=\frac19&\text{for }8\le x\le 17\\0&\text{otherewise}\end{cases}[/tex]

The probability that it takes between 14 and 16 minutes to wash the dishes is given by the integral,

[tex]\displaystyle\int_{14}^{16}P(X=x)\,\mathrm dx = \frac19\int_{14}^{16}\mathrm dx = \frac{16-14}9 = \frac29 \approx \boxed{0.22}[/tex]

If you're not familiar with calculus, the probability is equal to the area under the graph of P(X = x), which is a rectangle with height 1/9 and length 16 - 14 = 2, so the area and hence probability is 2/9 ≈ 0.22.

Richard is asked to spray wash the exterior of a building that is shaped like a cube. The building has a side length of 7 meters. How much surface area will Richard have to clean?
7 meters squared.
245 meters squared.
49 meters squared.
294 meters squared.

Answers

Answer:

294 meters squared

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of cube is calculated using the formula :

Surface area of cube = 6a²; where a = side length of the cube

The side length of the cube, a = 7 meters

Hence,

Surface area = 6 * 7² = 6 * 49

Surfave area of cube = 294 meters

Answer:

245 meters squared (correct on my test)

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, in this case, we complete the formula and then subtract the area of the base. Therefore, we take 6 x (7 meters)^2 and subtract (7 meters)^2. This can also be represented as 5 x (7 meters)^2.

[tex]degree = 3[/tex]

Required

The exponent of y (second term)

Since the polynomial has a degree of 3, the exponents of y will decrease from left to right (i.e. 2,1,0) while x will increase from left to right (i.e. 1,2,3)

So, we have:

[tex]6xy^2 - 5x^{[]}y^{[]} + 9x^{[]} = 6xy^2 - 5x^{[2]}y^{[1]} + 9x^{[3]}[/tex]

Remove square brackets

[tex]6xy^2 - 5x^{[]}y^{[]} + 9x^{[]} = 6xy^2 - 5x^2y + 9x^3[/tex]

Consider points a, b, and c in the graph. Determine which of these points is relative maxima on the interval x = –1 and x = 2 in the graph.

Answers

Given:

The graph of a function is given.

To find:

The point that is the relative maxima on the interval x = –1 and x = 2 in the graph.

Solution:

Relative maxima: It is the maximum point of a function over a short interval.

From the given graph it is clear that the graph of the function over the interval x = –1 and x = 2 has a relative maxima at (0,0).

Clearly, (0,0) is represented by point a.

So, the point a is the relative maxima on the interval x = –1 and x = 2 in the graph.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

What is triangle?

"A triangle is a polygon with three edges and three vertices. It is one of the basic shapes in geometry."

What is angle sum property?

"Angle sum property of triangle states that the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°."

Let us assume the two equal angles be '[tex]x[/tex]'

According to the question,

Two equal angles = [tex]x[/tex]

Third angle = [tex]x+48^{0}[/tex]

We know the angle sum property

[tex]x+x+x+48^{0} =180^{0}[/tex]

⇒[tex]3x+48^{0}=180^{0}[/tex]

⇒[tex]3x=180^{0}-48^{0}[/tex]

⇒[tex]x=\frac{132^{0} }{3}[/tex]

⇒[tex]x=44^{0}[/tex]

Two equal angles  [tex]x[/tex] = [tex]44^{0}[/tex]

Largest Angle = [tex]44^{0} +48^{0}[/tex]

∴  Largest Angle = [tex]92^{0}[/tex]

Is there evidence at the 0.05 level that the technique lengthens the training time?
Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The value of the test statistic is z = 1.39.

The p-value of the test is 0.0823 > 0.05, which means that there is not evidence at the 0.05 level that the technique lengthens the training time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using traditional methods it takes 92 hours to receive an advanced flying license.

This means that at the null hypothesis, it is tested if the mean is of 92, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu = 92[/tex]

Test if there is evidence that the technique lengthens the training time

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the mean is more than 92, that is:

[tex]H_1: \mu > 92[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

92 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 92[/tex]

A researcher used the technique on 70 students and observed that they had a mean of 93 hours. Assume the population variance is known to be 36.

This means that [tex]n = 70, X = 93, \sigma = \sqrt{36} = 6[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{93 - 92}{\frac{6}{\sqrt{70}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = 1.39[/tex]

The value of the test statistic is z = 1.39.

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample mean above 93, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of z = 1.39.

Looking at the z-table, z = 1.39 has a p-value of 0.9177.

1 - 0.9177 = 0.0823.

The p-value of the test is 0.0823 > 0.05, which means that there is not evidence at the 0.05 level that the technique lengthens the training time.
