Answer:

500 feet by 250 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be x and the width y feet.

As we have 1000 feet of wire:

x + 2y = 1000

2y = 1000 - x

y = 500 - 0.5x

So the area =   x(500 - 0.5x)

A =  500x - 0.5x^2

For a maximum  area the derivative

A' =  500 -x = 0

x = 500 feet.

2y = 1000 - 500

y = 250 feet.

Answer:the cost of one child's ticket is $6

the cost of one adult ticket is $9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one child's ticket

Let y represent the cost of one adult ticket.

Tickets for a minor league baseball game for an adult and two children cost a total of $21. This means that

2x + y = 21 - - - - - - - - - - 1

The adult ticket is three dollars more than a child's ticket. This means that

y = x + 3

Substituting y = x + 3 into equation 1, it becomes

2x + x + 3 = 21

3x + 3 = 21

3x = 21 - 3 = 18

x = 18/3 = 6

y = x + 3 = 6 + 3

y = 9

Answer:

Available information is not sufficient to solve the questions

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Cm = Computers Ordered by Company M

Let Cn = Computers Ordered by Company N

Let Pm = Printers Ordered by Company M

Let Pn = Printers Ordered by Company N

Cm + Pm = 50 --- Equation 1

Cn + Pn = 60 ----- Equation 2

1. Company M and N ordered the same number of computers

Here,

Cm = Cn

Substitute Cm for Cn in equation 2

Cm + Pm = 50

Cm + Pn = 60

Subtract Equation 2 from 1

Pm - Pn = 50 - 60

Pm - Pn = -10

Pm = Pn - 10

Substitute Pn-10 for Pm in equation 1

Cm + Pn - 10 = 50

Make Pn the subject of formula

Cm = 50+10-Pn

Cm = 60 - Pn

Hence, the number of computers ordered by Company M is 60 minus the number of printers ordered by Company n

2. Company N ordered 10 more printers than Company M.

Here,

Pn = 10 + Pm

Make Pm the subject of formula

Pm = Pn - 10

Substitute Pn-10 for Pm in equation 1

Cm + Pn - 10 = 50

Make Cm the Subject of formula

Cm = 50 + 10 - Pn

Cm = 60 - Pn

Hence, the number of computers ordered by Company M is 60 minus the number of printers ordered by Company n

Verify the solution set to the systems of equations by graphing the systems.

Where the 2 lines intersect is the solution set to the systems of equations.

We see graphically that point (1.666667, 13.66667), equivalent to (5/3, 41/3).

∴ (5/3, 41/3) or x = 5/3 and y = 41/3 is the solution to the systems of equations.

Final answer:

The solution to the system of equations y = 10x - 3 and y = 7x + 2 is x = 5/3 and y = 19/3.

Explanation:

The solution of the system of equations given by y = 10x - 3 and y = 7x + 2 can be found by setting the two expressions for y equal to each other since they both equal y. This yields the equation 10x - 3 = 7x + 2. Solving for x, we first subtract 7x from both sides to get 3x - 3 = 2. Then we add 3 to both sides to get 3x = 5. Finally, dividing both sides by 3 gives us x = 5/3. Substituting x back into either original equation, we get y = 10(5/3) - 3 or y = 7(5/3) + 2, both of which simplify to y = 19/3. Therefore, the solution to the system is x = 5/3 and y = 19/3.

Answer:

The number of bagels is 11 and the cups of coffee is 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Keisha bought cups of coffee and bagels for the people in her office. Each bagel cost $2 and each cup of coffee cost $1.50.

Keisha spent a total of $40 to buy 23 items.

Now, to find the number of cups of bagels and coffee.

As given in question:

Let [tex]x[/tex] represent the number of bagels.

And [tex]y[/tex] represent the number of cups of coffee.

So, the total number of items:

[tex]x+y=23[/tex]

[tex]x=23-y[/tex]    ......(1)

Now, the total money spent on items:

[tex]2x+1.50y=40[/tex]

Substituting the value of [tex]x[/tex] from equation (1):

[tex]2(23-y)+1.50y=40[/tex]

[tex]46-2y+1.50y=40[/tex]

[tex]46-0.50y=40[/tex]

Subtracting both sides by 46 we get:

[tex]-0.50y=-6[/tex]

Dividing both sides by -0.50 we get:

[tex]y=12.[/tex]

The number of cups of coffee = 12.

Now, to get the number of bagel we substitute the value of [tex]y[/tex] in equation (1):

[tex]x=23-y[/tex]

[tex]x=23-12[/tex]

[tex]x=11.[/tex]

The number of bagels = 11.

Therefore, the number of bagels is 11 and the cups of coffee is 12.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles = 180 (n-2)

where n is the number of sides of the polygon.

1) if the sum of the interior angles of a polygon equals 1980,

180(n - 2) = 1980

180n - 360 = 1980

180n = 1980 + 360 = 2340

n = 2340/180 = 13

2) if n = 9, the number of degrees would be

180(n - 2) = 180(9 - 2)

= 180 × 7 = 1260 degrees

3) 180(n - 2) = 1620

n - 2 = 1620/180 = 9

n = 9 + 2 = 11

4) n = 18

The number of degrees would be

180(n - 2) = 180(18 - 2) = 2880 degrees.

5) n = 17

The number of degrees would be

180(n - 2) = 180(17 - 2) = 2700 degrees.

Answer:

The probability of selecting a red car off the lot is 0.231.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of white cars = 25

Number of blue cars = 15

Number of red cars = 21

Number of black cars = 30

We need to find the probability of selecting a red car off the lot.

Solution:

First we will find the Total number of cars in the lot.

Now we can say that;

Total number of cars in the lot is equal to sum of Number of white cars and Number of blue cars and Number of red cars and Number of black cars.

framing in equation form we get;

Total number of cars in the lot = [tex]25+15+21+30 = 91[/tex]

Now to find the probability of selecting a red car off the lot we will divide Number of red cars by Total number of cars in the lot.

framing in equation form we get;

P(red) = [tex]\frac{21}{91}=0.2307[/tex]

Rounding to three decimals we get;

P(red) = 0.231

Hence The probability of selecting a red car off the lot is 0.231.

The probability of selecting a red car off the lot, rounded to three decimals, is 0.231.

First, we need to find the total number of cars on the lot by adding up the number of cars of each color:

 Total number of cars = Number of white cars + Number of blue cars + Number of red cars + Number of black cars

Total number of cars = 25 + 15 + 21 + 30

Total number of cars = 91

 Next, we find the probability of selecting a red car by dividing the number of red cars by the total number of cars:

Probability of selecting a red car = Number of red cars / Total number of cars

Probability of selecting a red car = 21 / 91

To round to three decimals, we perform the division:

 Probability of selecting a red car = 0.2308

Rounded to three decimals, the probability is 0.231.

Final answer:

Greg bought 12 books online. To find the number of books, set up the equation 6n + 3 = 75, subtract the shipping fee, and divide by the price per book.

Explanation:

Greg ordered books online for $6 each and paid a total of $75, which includes a $3 shipping fee. To determine the number of books Greg bought, you need to set up an equation that represents the total cost.

The cost of the books alone can be represented by 6 times the number of books (6n), and when you add the shipping cost of $3, it equals the total cost of $75. So the equation would be:

6n + 3 = 75

To solve for n, which is the number of books Greg purchased, follow these steps:

Subtract the shipping fee from the total cost: 75 - 3 = 72.

Divide the result by the cost per book: 72 ÷ 6 = 12.

Therefore, Greg bought 12 books.

Christopher Columbus, an Italian explorer sponsored by Spain, embarked on his voyage to find a direct sea route to Asia by sailing west. Contrary to his expectations, he landed in the Americas on October 12, 1492. Columbus made landfall on an island in the Bahamas, which the native Lucayans called Guanahani. He renamed it San Salvador. Following this, Columbus explored other islands in the Caribbean, including an island he named Hispaniola (present-day Dominican Republic and Haiti), still believing he had reached the East Indies.

Columbus’ mistaken belief that he had landed in Asia led to the indigenous peoples he encountered being called “Indios”, which is the origin of the term “Indian” for native peoples of the Americas. Despite his error, Columbus's voyages are considered a pivotal moment in history, marking the beginning of widespread European exploration and colonization of the Americas.

Tap A 3hrs

Tap B 6hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the volume of the swimming pool be Xm^3.

Now, to get the appropriate volume, we know we need to multiply the rate by the time. Let the rate of the taps be R1 and R2 respectively, while the time taken to fill the swimming pool be Ta and Tb respectively.

x/Ta= Ra

x/Tb= Rb

X/(Ra + Rb)= 2

Ta = Tb - 3

From equation 2:

X = 2( Ra + Rb)

Substituting the values of Ra and Rb Using the first set of equations

X = 2( x/Ta + x/Tb)

But Ta = Tb - 3

1/2 = 1/(Tb - 3)+ 1/Tb

0.5 = (Tb + Tb-3)/Tb(Tb - 3)

At this juncture let’s say Tb = y

0.5 = (2y - 3)/y(y - 3)

y(y-3 ) = 4y - 6

y^2 -3y - 4y + 6 = 0

y^2 -7y + 6= 0

Solving the quadratic equation, we get y =

y = Tb = 6hrs or 1hr

The 3th answer is correct.

for x<2, form graph we know that if x=0 than y=-3.

For x<2 in 3th we have y=1/2x-3, so for x=0, y=(1/2)*0-3=0-3=-3. It fits.

For x=2, from graph we have that y=-2.

For x>=2 in 3th we have y=3x-8, so for x=2, y=3*2-8=-2. It fits.

These answer fit also i for first, but breakpoint for y from graph is point 2 not point -2, so the answer is 3th.

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

m = 1/7 is the slope

(x,y) = (0,0) is the origin the line goes through

y = mx+b

0 = (1/7)*0 + b

0 = 0+b

b = 0 is the y intercept

y = mx+b

y = (1/7)x+0

y = (1/7)x is the equation of the line

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

To plot the equation of this line, mark the point (0,0) first.

Then move up 1 unit and to the right 7 units to arrive at (7,1) as the second point.

Draw a straight line through (0,0) and (7,1) as shown in the diagram below.

Point P is (0,0) and point Q is (7,1)

Points A through E in the same diagram represent the answer choices A through E.

Of the answer choices, only point D is on this line, so point D is the answer.

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

A non-visual way to find the answer is to plug each (x,y) coordinate from each answer choice into the equation we found above.

So for choice A we plug in x = 0 and y = 7

y = (1/7)*x

7 = (1/7)*0

7 = 0

we end up with a false equation, so choice A is ruled out. Similar stories happen with B, C, and E as well.

With choice D however, we plug in x = 14 and y = 2, and we get...

y = (1/7)*x

2 = (1/7)*14

2 = 14/7

2 = 2

Since we get a true equation, this confirms that (14,2) is on the graph of y = (1/7)x.

Defining the wrong choice:

Therefore, "Choice D" is the correct choice.

Answer:

B. Stratified sampling, because there are specific subgroups to investigate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Stratified Sampling is a sampling method and is used when the population has subgroups with different characteristics. Random sampling is applied in each of the sub-groups proportional to their size and then these samples combined together to create sample of the study.

Since there are three towns with people from different occupations ( retirees,business owners, office workers), it is better to use stratified sampling method.

The correct answer is option B). Stratified sampling, because there are specific subgroups to investigate.

To determine the most appropriate sampling method, one must consider the composition of the population and the goal of the study. In this scenario, the population consists of three distinct groups: retirees in town A, business owners in town B, and office workers in town C. Each group represents a different stratum within the overall population of the county.

Stratified sampling is a method that divides the population into subgroups, or strata, based on certain characteristics, such as age, occupation, or town of residence in this case. This method ensures that each subgroup is represented in the sample in proportion to its size in the overall population. Here's why stratified sampling is the most appropriate method for this situation:

1. Representation: Stratified sampling ensures that each town's unique demographic is represented in the sample. This is important because each group may have different voting patterns.

2. Precision: By sampling each stratum separately, the estimates of the average number of votes for each candidate can be more precise because the variance within each subgroup is likely to be lower than the variance across the entire population.

3. Comparability: Stratified sampling allows for direct comparison between the different strata, which in this case are the three towns.

4. Efficiency: If the strata are chosen such that the variance within each stratum is minimized, the overall variance of the estimate can be reduced, leading to a more efficient estimate.

Now, let's consider the other options:

A. Simple random sampling: While this method is unbiased, it may not provide representation from each of the three towns in proportion to their population sizes. This could lead to an inaccurate estimate if one group's voting behavior is significantly different from the others.

C. Systematic sampling: This method involves selecting elements from the population at regular intervals. It can be difficult to implement if there is no clear ordering of the population, and it may not ensure representation from each town.

D. Cluster sampling: This method would be appropriate if the population were spread across a wide area and could be divided into clusters that are more convenient to sample. However, since the population is already divided into distinct groups within specific towns, stratified sampling is a better choice.

E. All the above sampling methods: While each method has its own merits, not all are equally suitable for this particular scenario. Stratified sampling is the most appropriate because it specifically addresses the heterogeneity of the population across the three towns.

Answer:

a) [tex] P(A|B) = \frac{15/83}{44/83} =\frac{15}{44}=0.341[/tex]

b) [tex] P(B|A) = \frac{29/83}{44/83} =\frac{29}{44}=0.659[/tex]

c)  A. A student given a $1 bill is more likely to have kept the money.

Because the probability 0.659 is atmoslt two times greater than 0.341

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the following table:

                                                     Purchased Gum      Kept the Money   Total

Students Given 4 Quarters              25                              14                      39

Students Given $1 Bill                       15                               29                    44

Total                                                   40                              43                     83

a. find the probability of randomly selecting a student who spent the money, given that the student was given a $1 bill.

For this case let's define the following events

B= "student was given $1 Bill"

A="The student spent the money"

For this case we want this conditional probability:

[tex] P(A|B) =\frac{P(A and B)}{P(B)}[/tex]

We have that [tex] P(A)= \frac{40}{83} , P(B)= \frac{44}{83}, P(A and B)= \frac{15}{83}[/tex]

And if we replace we got:

[tex] P(A|B) = \frac{15/83}{44/83} =\frac{15}{44}=0.341[/tex]

b. find the probability of randomly selecting a student who kept the money, given that the student was given a $1 bill.

For this case let's define the following events

B= "student was given $1 Bill"

A="The student kept the money"

For this case we want this conditional probability:

[tex] P(A|B) =\frac{P(A and B)}{P(B)}[/tex]

We have that [tex] P(A)= \frac{43}{83} , P(B)= \frac{44}{83}, P(A and B)= \frac{29}{83}[/tex]

And if we replace we got:

[tex] P(B|A) = \frac{29/83}{44/83} =\frac{29}{44}=0.659[/tex]

c. what do the preceding results suggest?

For this case the best solution is:

A. A student given a $1 bill is more likely to have kept the money.

Because the probability 0.659 is atmoslt two times greater than 0.341

Using the principles of conditional probability, we find that a student given a $1 bill is more likely to spend the money (probability approximately 0.641) than keep it (probability approximately 0.359). Therefore, option B is the correct interpretation of these results.

To answer this question, we should first understand that this problem is fundamentally about conditional probability, the probability of an event given that another event has occurred. Let's take this step by step.

Part a: Here, we want to find the probability of selecting a student who spent the money, given that the student was given a $1 bill. This number would be the number of $1 bill students who bought gum divided by the total number of $1 bill students. This equates to 25/(25+14) = 0.641. So, the probability is approximately 0.641.

Part b: In this situation, we're looking for the probability of selecting a student who kept the money, given that the student was given a $1 bill. This would be the number of $1 bill students who kept the money divided by the total number of $1 bill students, or 14/(25+14) = 0.359. The probability is approximately 0.359.

Part c: These results suggest that the appropriate solution is B: 'A student given a $1 bill is more likely to have spent the money than a student given four quarters.'

Answer:

Lia needs [tex]7\frac{2}{4}\ cups[/tex] of flour and corn meal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount of flour needed = [tex]2\frac{3}{4} \ cups[/tex]

[tex]2\frac{3}{4} \ cups[/tex] can be Rewritten as [tex]\frac{11}{4}\ cups[/tex]

Amount of flour needed =  [tex]\frac{11}{4}\ cups[/tex]

Amount of Corn meal needed = [tex]4\frac{3}{4}\ cups[/tex]

[tex]4\frac{3}{4}\ cups[/tex] can be Rewritten as [tex]\frac{19}{4}\ cups[/tex]

Amount of Corn meal needed =  [tex]\frac{19}{4}\ cups[/tex]

We need to find the total amount of of flour and cornmeal she needs.

Solution:

Now we can say that;

the total amount of of flour and cornmeal she needs is equal to sum of Amount of flour needed and Amount of Corn meal needed.

framing in equation form we get;

the total amount of of flour and cornmeal she needs = [tex]\frac{11}{4}+\frac{19}{4}=\frac{11+19}{4}=\frac{30}{4}\ cups\ \ OR\ \ 7\frac{2}{4}\ cups[/tex]

Answer:

1 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Luis mixed all the trails thus:

4 2/3 + 1 1/4 + 1 1/3 + 3/4

= 15/3 + 5/4 + 4/3 + 3/4

= 60+15+16+9/12

Total trail mixed by Luis equals 100/12

He then divided 100/12 among his 5 friends thus:

100/12 ÷ 5

= 20/12

= 1 2/3 per friend.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

u = 3.4

stdev = 0.35

n = 25

E = u = 3.4

SD = [tex]\frac{stdev}{\sqrt{n} } =\frac{0.35}{\sqrt{25} }[/tex] = 0.07

The calculation of the 68% population covers with 1 standard deviation is as follows:

u - SD = 3.4 - 0.07 = 3.33

u + SD = 3.4 + 0.07 = 3.47

Range = (3.33, 3.47)

The calculation of the 95% population covers within 2 standard deviations is as follows:

u - 2SD = 3.4 - 2(0.07) = 3.26

u + 2SD = 3.4 + 2(0.07) = 3.54

Range = (3.26, 3.54)

The calculation of the 99.7% population covers within 3 standard deviations is as follows:

u - 3SD = 3.4 - 3(0.07) = 3.19

u + 3SD = 3.4 + 3(0.07) = 3.61

Range = (3.19, 3.61)

From the information, observe that the shape of the distribution is symmetrical.

Therefore, the graph is as shows the attached image.

This shows that approximately:

68% of the observations will have mean between 3.33 and 3.47

95% of the observations will have mean between 3.26 and 3.54

99.7% of the observations will have mean between 3.19 and 3.61

Answer:

Mrs. Jackson worked 32 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mrs.Jackson earned a $500 bonus for signing a 1 year contract to work as a nurse.

Her salary is $22 per hour.

If her first weeks check including the bonus is $1204.

Now, to find the hours Mrs. Jackson work.

Amount of bonus = $500.

Total salary = $1204.

So, we deduct the amount of bonus from the total salary:

[tex]1204-500=\$704.[/tex]

The remaining salary = $704.

As, given her salary is $22 per hour.

Now, to get the hours she work we divide the remaining salary $704 by $22:

[tex]704\div 22[/tex]

[tex]=32\ hours.[/tex]

Therefore, Mrs. Jackson worked 32 hours.

Answer:

The dimensions of poster are 32.5 in wide and 40.5 in tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A poster is 8 in taller than it is wide.

It is mounted on a backing board that provides a 2 in border on each side of the poster.

The area of the backing board is 308 in².

Now, to find the dimensions of the poster.

Let [tex]x[/tex] be the length of the poster.

And [tex]y[/tex] be the width of the poster.

As given, poster is 8 in taller than it is wide.

So,

[tex]x=y+8[/tex]   ......(1)

Area = 308 in².

So, it is mounted on a backing board that provides a 2 in border on each side of the poster.

According to question:

[tex]2\times (2(y+4))+2\times (2\times x)=308[/tex]

Now. substituting the value from equation (1) in the place of [tex]x[/tex] we get:

[tex]2\times (2y+8)+2(2\times (y+8))=308[/tex]

[tex]2\times (2y+8)+2(2y+16)=308[/tex]

[tex]4y+16+4y+32=308[/tex]

[tex]8y+48=308[/tex]

Subtracting both sides by 48 we get:

[tex]8y=260[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 8 we get:

[tex]y=32.5\ in.[/tex]

The width of the poster = 32.5 in.

Now, substituting the value of [tex]y[/tex] in equation (1):

[tex]x=y+8[/tex]

[tex]x=32.5+8[/tex]

[tex]x=40.5\ in.[/tex]

Length of the poster = 40.5 in.

Therefore, the dimensions of poster are 32.5 in wide and 40.5 in tall.

Answer:

64%

Step-by-step explanation:

pain

The answer is B) 64%.

Probability is a number that expresses the likelihood or chance that a specific event will take place. Both proportions ranging from 0 to 1 and percentages ranging from 0% to 100% can be used to describe probabilities.

Let X be the number of students out of 40 who like to hike. We know that P(X ≤ 15) = 0.36 and we want to find P(X ≥ 16).

Note that P(X ≥ 16) is the complement of P(X ≤ 15). That is,

P(X ≥ 16) = 1 - P(X ≤ 15) = 1 - 0.36 = 0.64

Therefore, the answer is B) 64%.
