A dwarf seahorse swims 3/4 inch in a minute. How many minutes would take the seahorse to swim 1/3 inch?
A. 1/3 divided by 3/4= 4/9
B. 1/3 times 3/4= 1/4
C. 3/4 divided by 1/3= 9/4
D. 3/4 + 1/3= 13/12

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

we have 3/4 in / minute.

so, we divide this by 3/4 to get the time for 1 inch.

and then we multiply by 1/3 to get the time for 1/3 inch.

that combination, dividing by 3/4 and multiplying by 1/3, can be done in any sequence (commutative property of multiplication).

therefore, this can be expressed as 1/3 divided by 3/4. and A is the correct answer.

Tori is writing an essay for her English class. She already has 235 words, andon average writes 175 words every hour. The essay needs to be at least 1,600words. How many more hours should she plan to work on it? Write and solvean inequality for the situation.

Answers

Let be "h" the number of hours Tori should plan to work on it.

You know that she writes an average of 175 per hour. This can be represented with this expresion:

[tex]175h[/tex]

You also know that there must be at least 1,600 words in the essay for her English class. Since she has 235 words written, you can set up the following inequality:

[tex]235+175h\ge1,600[/tex]

The symbol used in the inequality means "Greater than or equal to".

In order to solve it, you can follow these steps:

1. Subtract 235 from both sides of the inequality:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 235+175h-(235)\ge1,600-(235) \\ 175h\ge1,365 \end{gathered}[/tex]

2. Divide both sides of the inequality by 175:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{175h}{175}\ge\frac{1,365}{175} \\ \\ h\ge7.8 \end{gathered}[/tex]

The answer is:

Answers

Tyrone randomly interviewed 55 8th graders at the Westwood Mall Saturday afternoon to determine their reason for going to the mall.

Based on the results he made the following claim.

"Two out of four middle school students visit the mall to go shopping".

Let us analyze each of the given options.

a. Tyrone only interviewed students in the food court.

There is no evidence that suggests the interview was conducted at the food court so this is not the correct answer.

b. Tyrone did not survey enough 8th graders to draw a valid conclusion

He interviewed 55 8th graders which are more than enough students so this is not misleading.

c. Tyrone did not use a random sample of 8th graders

It is given in the question that he used a random sample so this is not misleading.

d. Since Tyrone surveyed only 8th graders, his sample is not representative of all middle school students.

If you notice closely, Tyrone interviewed only 8th graders whereas the claim was about all middle school students.

So this is clearly misleading, 8th graders do not represent all middle school students.

Therefore, option d is correct.

Point M is the midpoint of AB. If AM = b² + 5b and
MB = 3b + 35, what is the length of AM?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

since M is the midpoint, it means that AM = MB.

so,

b² + 5b = 3b + 35

b² + 2b - 35 = 0

the general solution to such a quadratic equation

ax² + bx + c = 0

is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

in our case (x is called b, don't get confused, as this is not the factor of x) this gives us

b = (-2 ± sqrt(2² - 4×1×-35))/(2×1) =

= (-2 ± sqrt(4 + 140))/2 = (-2 ± sqrt(144))/2 =

= (-2 ± 12)/2 = -1 ± 6

b1 = -1 + 6 = 5

b2 = -1 - 6 = -7

therefore, we have 2 solutions

b = 5

AM = 5² + 5×5 = 25 + 25 = 50

b = -7

AM = (-7)² + 5×-7 = 49 - 35 = 14

control, as AM = MB

MB = 3×5 + 35 = 15 + 35 = 50

or

MB = 3×-7 + 35 = -21 + 35 = 14

AM = MB in both cases, so, all is correct.

Find the surface area of a right cone with diameter 30 in. and slant height 8 in.Your answerEXTRA CREDIT: Find the surface area of the figure below. Round to the nearesttenth, if necessary.10 in?

Answers

Answer:

Surface area = 1084 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the surface area of a right cone, we can use the following formula:

[tex]\boxed{{Area = \pi r^2 + \pi rl}}[/tex],

where:

• r = radius

• l = slant height.

In the question, we are told that the diameter of the cone is 30 in. Therefore its radius is (30 ÷ 2 = ) 15 in. We are also told that its height is 8 in.

Using this information and the formula above, we can calculate the surface area of the cone:

Surface area = [tex]\pi \times (15)^2 + \pi \times 15 \times 8[/tex]

Help I need a example for graphing two variable inequalities

Answers

Solution:

To graph, a linear inequality in two variables (say, x and y ), first get y alone on one side. Then consider the related equation obtained by changing the inequality sign to an equals sign. The graph of this equation is a line.

If the inequality is strict ( < or > ), graph a dashed line. If the inequality is not strict ( ≤ and ≥ ), graph a solid line.

For example,

Consider the linear inequality in two variables below

[tex]y\leq4x-8[/tex]

Step 1:

Put x=0 and find y

[tex]\begin{gathered} y=4x-8 \\ y=4(0)-8 \\ y=0-8 \\ y=-8 \\ (0,-8) \end{gathered}[/tex]

Step 2:

Put y=0 and find x

Step-by-step explanation:


. A rectangle has two lengths and two widths, or two sides that are vertical (up and down) and two sides that are horizontal (left and right)


. In order to find the perimeter we must add up all four side lengths.


. You can find the perimeter of a rectangle by adding the length and the width then multiplying by 2, because there are two of each side length.


P = 2(l+w)


In the question the perimeter is given, which is 74.


We can divide 74 by 2 so that we can find the sum of the length and width.


74/2 = 37

l + w = 37


In the question is states that the length is 5 inches longer than the width.


l = (5 + w)


There are two widths and two lengths in a rectangle, the measurement of the two lengths is 5 inches longer than the two widths.


5 + w + w = 37

5 + 2w = 37


Now that we have our equation we can solve for w, or the width.


1. Move the term containing the variable to the left


5 + 2w = 37

2w + 5 = 37


2. Subtract 5 from both sides of the equation, the opposite of adding 5

2w + 5 = 37

2w + 5 - 5 = 37 - 5

2w = 32


3. Divide by 2 in both sides of the equation, the opposite of multiplying 2


2w = 32

2w/2 = 32/2


4. Cancel out the 2s on the left, but leave the x

2w/2 = 32/2

w = 16

So, now that w, or the width = 16, we can find the length:

l = 5 + w

l = 5 + 16

l = 21


You can check your answer by plugging in our values into the original perimeter formula:


P = 2(l+w)

P = 2(21 + 16)

P = 2(37)

P = 74, so my answer is correct, because 74 is the perimeter given in the question.



Suppose that the balance of a person’s bank account in US is normally distributed with mean $580 and standard deviation $125. Find the amount of money which would guarantee a person has more money in their account than 80% of US residents.I want an answer and explanation.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\text{ \$685.25}[/tex]

Explanation:

Here, we want to get the amount of money that would guarantee that a person has more money than 80%

That means the probability is greater than 80% or 0.8

Thus, we need to get the z-score that corresponds to this probability

Using a z-score table, we can get this as follows:

[tex]P(x\text{ }>\text{z\rparen= 0.842}[/tex]

We will now get the value from the obtained z-score

Mathematically:

[tex]\begin{gathered} z\text{ = }\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\ \\ \text{ x is the value we want to calculate} \\ \mu\text{ is the mean} \\ \sigma\text{ is the standard deviation} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Substituting the values, we have it that:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 0.842\text{ = }\frac{x-580}{125} \\ \\ \text{ x = 580 + 125\lparen0.842\rparen} \\ x\text{ = \$685.25} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Since a = 3:

[tex]\cot (A)=\frac{b}{3}[/tex]STEP 3: finding b

We have an expression for cot(A) but we do not know its exact value yet. First we have to find the value of b to find it out.

We do this using the Pythagorean Theorem. Its formula is given by the equation:

[tex]c^2=a^2+b^2[/tex]

Since

a = 3

and

c = √51

Then,

[tex]\begin{gathered} c^2=a^2+b^2 \\ \downarrow \\ \sqrt[]{51}^2=3^2+b^2 \\ 51=9+b^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]

solving the equation for b:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 51=9+b^2 \\ \downarrow\text{ taking 9 to the left} \\ 51-9=b^2 \\ 42=b^2 \\ \downarrow square\text{ root of both sides} \\ \sqrt{42}=\sqrt{b^2}=b \\ \sqrt[]{42}=b \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then,

b= √42

Therefore, the equation for cot(A) is:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \cot (A)=\frac{b}{3} \\ \downarrow \\ \cot (A)=\frac{\sqrt[]{42}}{3} \end{gathered}[/tex]Answer: D

We will determine the height of the building as follows:

First, we determine the height above her window, that is:

[tex]\tan (56)=\frac{h_u}{150ft}\Rightarrow h_u=(150ft)\tan (56)[/tex][tex]\Rightarrow h_u=222.3841453\ldots ft[/tex]

Now, we calculate the height below her window:

[tex]\tan (32)=\frac{h_l}{150ft}\Rightarrow h_l=(150ft)\tan (32)[/tex][tex]\Rightarrow h_l=93.73040279\ldots ft[/tex]

Then, we will have that:

[tex]h_T=h_l+h_l\Rightarrow h_T=150(\tan (56)+\tan (32))[/tex][tex]\Rightarrow h_T=316.1145581\ldots ft\Rightarrow h_T\approx316.1ft[/tex]

So, the height of the building is approximately 316.1 ft tall.
