A pipe that is 165 feet long is cut into three parts whose lengths are in the ratio 2 : 5 : 8. Find the length of the longest piece. Longest piece: 2 feet

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

88 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the shortest piece has length 2x, so the medium piece has length 5x and the longest piece has length 8x. Added together, they equal 165, so

2x + 5x + 8x = 165

15x = 165

divide both sides by 15 to isolate x

x = 11

8x = longest piece = 88 ft

Given that the points (-32, - 10) and (-74, 11) lie on a line, what is the
equation of the line?

Answers

The equation of the line is:

[tex]y=\frac{-1}{2}x-26[/tex]

The point-slope equation of a line is given as:

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

where m represents the slope, and is calculated as:

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

For the line passing through the points (-32, - 10) and (-74, 11)

[tex]x_1=-32, y_1=-10, x_2=-74, y_2=11[/tex]

Substitute these points into the slope formula to get the slope of the line

[tex]m=\frac{11-(-10)}{-74-(-32)} \\\\m=\frac{11+10}{-74+32} \\\\m=\frac{21}{-42} \\\\m=\frac{-1}{2}[/tex]

Substitute [tex]m=\frac{-1}{2}, x_1=-32, y_1=-10[/tex] into the line equation

[tex]y-(-10)=\frac{-1}{2}(x-(-32))\\\\y+10=\frac{-1}{2}x-16\\\\y= \frac{-1}{2}x-16-10\\\\y=\frac{-1}{2}x-26[/tex]

The equation of the line is:

[tex]y=\frac{-1}{2}x-26[/tex]

A group of 90 students plan to go camping over the weekend. At the last minute, some of the students decide not to go. The students who do go separated into four camps, where [tex]\frac{1}{7}[/tex] of the students stay at Hill Camp; [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] of the students stay at Forest Camp; [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] of the students stay at Field Camp; and the remaining students stay at Lake Camp. How many students were at Lake Camp?

Answers

Using fractions, it is found that of the students that went camping, [tex]\mathbf{\frac{23}{84}}[/tex] were at Lake Camp.

The students who went camping are divided according to the following fractions:

[tex]\frac{1}{7}[/tex] stayed at Hill Camp.[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] stayed at Forest Camp.[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] stayed at Field Camp.The remaining x stayed at Lake Camp.

The sum of all these fractions is 100% = 1, hence:

[tex]\frac{1}{7} + \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{4} + x = 1[/tex]

[tex]\frac{12 + 28 + 21 + 84x}{84} = 1[/tex]

[tex]84x + 61 = 84[/tex]

[tex]84x = 23[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{23}{84}[/tex]

Of the students that went camping, [tex]\mathbf{\frac{23}{84}}[/tex] were at Lake Camp.

Which of the following numbers can be expressed as a decimal that terminates? 3/2,2/3,3/4,5/7


Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

An example of one fraction that does NOT terminate is 2/3.

2/3 = 0.666666666666666 ....  That's the easy way to tackle the problem. Pick out the ones that don't terminate.

5/7 is the other one. It does not terminate either. It has 6 digits in a block that keeps on repeating itself forever.

5/7 = .571428 571428 which goes on forever.

So the two that do terminate are

−x + 2y − z = 0
−x − y + 2z = 0
2x − z = 8

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

several possibilities to solve this.

let's start with subtracting the second equation from the first

-x + 2y - z = 0

- -x - y +2z = 0

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

0 3y - 3z = 0

y - z = 0

y = z

now we use this in e.g. the first equation :

-x + 2z - z = 0

-x + z = 0

z = x (therefore, also x = y)

now we use this in the third equation :

2x - x = 8

x = 8 = y = z

The automobile drove 50 mph and had gone 200 miles when the airplane set out in pursuit. It took 4 hours to overtake the car. What was the speed of the airplane?

Answers

100 mph per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

solution

speed of auto mobile=50mph

distance already traveled when the airplane took out in pursuit=200miles

time taken to overtake the car=4 hours

Now,

let the speed of airplane be X

X=50×4+200

or,X=200+200

or,X=400

or, X=400÷4

Therefore, X=100

A random variables X and Y are distributed according to the joint PDF. The value of constant a = _______.f(x,y)=ax if 1<=1x<=y<=2 and 0 otherwise

Answers

Answer:    3/2

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

Explanation:

PDF = probability density function

The given joint PDF is

[tex]f(x,y) = \begin{cases}ax \ \ \ \text{ if } 1 \le x \le y \le 2\\0 \ \ \ \ \ \text{ otherwise}\end{cases}[/tex]

Let's focus on the [tex]1 \le x \le y \le 2[/tex]. Specifically the x term for now. Erasing out the y term, we have the inequality [tex]1 \le x \le 2[/tex] which says x is between 1 and 2, inclusive. We have almost the same story for y, but there's another condition attached to it: y must also be equal to or larger than x.

So let's say x = 1.5. This would mean [tex]1.5 \le y \le 2[/tex]. As another example, x = 1.7  leads to [tex]1.7 \le y \le 2[/tex]. In general, we would say [tex]x \le y \le 2[/tex] where x is between 1 and 2.

As x gets bigger, the range of possible y values gets smaller. If x = 2, then y has no choice but to be 2 as well.

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

Based on that, we'll have a double integral that looks like this:

[tex]\displaystyle V = \int_{1}^{2}\int_{x}^{2}f(x,y)dydx\\\\[/tex]

The outer integral handles the x terms that range from 1 to 2, describing [tex]1 \le x \le 2[/tex]. Note the dx on the outside. The order of the dy and dx matters.

On the inside, we have the integral for dy ranging from x to 2 to describe the interval [tex]x \le y \le 2[/tex]

To have f(x,y) be a PDF, the volume under the f(x,y) surface must be 1, where the volume is based on the bounds set up. So we must have V = 1. We'll use this later.

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

Let's simplify the double integral.

We'll start by computing the inner integral with respect to y.

[tex]\displaystyle V = \int_{1}^{2}\int_{x}^{2}f(x,y)dydx\\\\\displaystyle V = \int_{1}^{2}\int_{x}^{2}\left(ax\right)dydx\\\\\displaystyle V = \int_{1}^{2}\left(axy\Bigg|_{x}^{2}\right)dx\\\\\displaystyle V = \int_{1}^{2}\left(ax(2) - ax(x)\right)dx\\\\\displaystyle V = \int_{1}^{2}\left(2ax - ax^2\right)dx\\\\[/tex]

Then we'll finish it off by integrating with respect to x.

[tex]\displaystyle V = \int_{1}^{2}\left(2ax - ax^2\right)dx\\\\\displaystyle V = \left(ax^2 - \frac{1}{3}ax^3\right)\Bigg|_{1}^{2}\\\\\displaystyle V = \left(a(2)^2 - \frac{1}{3}a(2)^3\right) - \left(a(1)^2 - \frac{1}{3}a(1)^3\right)\\\\\displaystyle V = \left(4a - \frac{8}{3}a\right)-\left(a - \frac{1}{3}a\right)\\\\[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle V = 4a - \frac{8}{3}a-a + \frac{1}{3}a\\\\\displaystyle V = 3a - \frac{8}{3}a + \frac{1}{3}a\\\\\displaystyle V = \frac{9}{3}a - \frac{8}{3}a + \frac{1}{3}a\\\\\displaystyle V = \frac{9-8+1}{3}a\\\\\displaystyle V = \frac{2}{3}a\\\\[/tex]

Side note: We don't have to worry about the "plus C" integration constant when working with definite integrals.

Recall that V = 1. So,

[tex]\displaystyle V = \frac{2}{3}a\\\\\displaystyle \frac{2}{3}a = 1\\\\\displaystyle a = \frac{3}{2} = 1.5\\\\[/tex]

a = 3/2 is the final answer.

The supplement of angle 3 is congruent to 67, because they are corresponding angles. After you subtract the supplement from 180, you should get angle 3

180-67=113

Answer:

∠3 measures 113°

Step-by-step explanation:

These are consecutive interior angles. It's difficult to explain in words because none of the lines are marked in any way, but I marked the angles in the attached image. Because both downward facing lines are parallel, both sets of corresponding red and blue angles are congruent.

∠3 corresponds to the angle supplementary to the 67° angle. Supplementary angles add up to 180°, so ∠3 and 67° also have to add up to 180°. Hopefully my image makes that a little more clear.

A self-storage center has many storage rooms that are 6 ft wide, 10 feet deep, and 12 ft high. What is the volume of the room?

Answers

The volume of the storage room is the amount of space in the storage room, and it is 720 cubic feet

The dimensions are given as:

[tex]Width = 6ft[/tex]

[tex]Depth = 10ft[/tex]

[tex]Height = 12ft[/tex]

The volume of the storage room is the product of the dimensions.

So, we have:

[tex]Volume= Width \times Depth \times Height[/tex]

Substitute values for Width, Depth and Height

[tex]Volume= 6ft \times 10ft \times 12ft[/tex]

Multiply the dimensions

[tex]Volume= 720ft^3[/tex]

Hence, the volume of the storage room is 720 cubic feet

# of possible outcomes = 14

There are 6 girls in the class and thus there are 6 favorable outcomes.

# of favorable outcomes = 6

The probability is the number of favorable outcomes divided by the number of possible outcomes.

P(Girl) = # of favorable outcomes
