Dave and his brother. Theo, are selling cookies by the pound at the school bake sale Dave sold 14 84 pounds of cookies and Theo sold 21.45 pounds of cookies How many pounds did they sell altogether? A 35 29 OB 36 39 C36 25 0 D. 36 29

Answers

For tis problem we have that Dave sold 14.84 pounds of cookies and Theo sold 21.45 pounds of cookies.

If we want to find the total of pounds that they sold together we just need to add the two values and we have:

[tex]14.84+21.45=36.29\text{pounds}[/tex]

The reason is because 0.84+0.45=1.29

14+21=35. And finally 35+1.29=36.29

And the best answer for this case would be D. 36.29

To find the length of side AB, which is the hypotenuse of the right triangle ABC, we have to apply the Pythagorean Theorem,

3-35. Fisher thinks that any two lines must have a point of intersection. Is he correct? If so, explain how youknow. If not, produce a counterexample. That is, find two lines that do not have a point of intersection and explainhow you know

Answers

Any two lines must have a point of intersection, with ONLY ONE exception : when the lines are parallel. That means they have exactly the same inclination or Slope.

As an example of two lines that hasnt point of intersection they are

y = 5x + 16

y = 5x + 11

We know both lines have no point of intersection because

both have the same slope or inclination m. By comparation with slope intercept equation

y = mx + b

then we see both have same inclination, and b is 11 in one line and 16 in the other line. This means both lines are parallel with one line going over the other line, without touching it in any point.

The mean height of women in a country (ages 20-29) is 63.6 inches. A random sample of 70 women in this age group are selected. What is the probability that the mean height for the sample is greater than 64 inches?Assuming sigma= 2.53 inches

Answers

We have a mean of 63.6 inches and a standard deviation of 2.53 inches. We want to find the probability for our random sample to have a greater mean than 64 inches. We can do that by finding the probability of getting women higher than 64 inches in the original group. To do that, we're going to use a z-table.

First, let's convert 64 inches to a z-score:

[tex]\begin{gathered} z(64)=\frac{64-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt[]{n}}=\frac{64-63.6}{2.53/\sqrt[]{70}}=\frac{0.4\sqrt[]{70}}{2.53}=1.32278265065\ldots \\ z(64)\approx1.32 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Using a right z-table, we have

This z-table gives us the area between the middle of the bell curve and our desired value.

This means, the probability of getting a sample higher than our value, will be 0.5 minus the probability given by the z-table.

[tex]0.5-0.4066=0.0934[/tex]

Then, we have our result.

[tex]P(\bar{x}>64)=0.0934[/tex]

Let x be the number of dimes

Let y be the number of quarters

Write an expression to show how much Gretchen paid for drama,action, and comedy videos if she paid $4 for each at a sale. Evaluate the expressionGretchen’s video purchasesMystery 6Action 3Comedy 5Drama 2Romance 2

Answers

Let d the number of drama videos, c the number of comedy videos and a the number of action videos.

If the cost per video (independently of the genre) is $4, then, for the total cost of the videos Gretchen payed, you can write:

total = 4d + 4c + 4a

Now, based on the given table, you have:

d = 2

c = 5

a = 3

By replacing the previous values into the expression for total, and by simplifying, you obtain:

total = 4(2) + 4(5) + 4(3)

total = 8 + 20 + 12

total = 40

Hence, Gretchen payed $40 for the videos

Answer:

2/5 (-3/7) = -6/35 ≅ -0.1714286

Step-by-step explanation:

and that’s how you do it

Add: 2/5 + 3/7 = 2 · 7/5 · 7 + 3 · 5/7 · 5 = 14/35 + 15/35 = 14 + 15/35 = 29/35.

It is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator for adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of both denominators - LCM(5, 7) = 35. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 5 × 7 = 35. In the following intermediate step, it cannot further simplify the fraction result by canceling.

In other words - two fifths plus three sevenths is twenty-nine thirty-fifths.

what are the coordinates of the focus of the conic section shown below (y+2)^2/16-(x-3)^2/9=1

Answers

Given the function of the conic section:

[tex]\mleft(y+2\mright)^2/16-\mleft(x-3\mright)^2/9=1[/tex]

This conic section is a hyperbola.

Use this form below to determine the values used to find vertices and asymptotes of the hyperbola:

[tex]\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}\text{ - }\frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}\text{ = }1[/tex]

Match the values in this hyperbola to those of the standard form.

The variable h represents the x-offset from the origin b, k represents the y-offset from origin a.

We get,

a = 4

b = 3

k = 3

h = -2

A. The first focus of a hyperbola can be found by adding the distance of the center to a focus or c to h.

But first, let's determine the value of c. We will be using the formula below:

[tex]\sqrt[]{a^2+b^2}[/tex]

Let's now determine the value of c.

[tex]\sqrt[]{a^2+b^2}\text{ = }\sqrt[]{4^2+3^2}\text{ = }\sqrt[]{16\text{ + 9}}\text{ = }\sqrt[]{25}[/tex][tex]\text{ c = 5}[/tex]

Let's now determine the coordinates of the first foci:

[tex]\text{Coordinates of 1st Foci: (}h\text{ + c, k) = (-2 + 5, 3) = 3,3}[/tex]

B. The second focus of a hyperbola can be found by subtracting c from h.

[tex]\text{ Coordinates of 2nd Foci: (h - c, k) = (-2 - 5, 3) = -7,3}[/tex]

Therefore, the conic section has two focus and their coordinates are 3,3 and -7,3.

In other forms, the foci of the hyperbola is:

[tex]\text{ }(h\text{ }\pm\text{ }\sqrt[]{a^2+b^2},\text{ k) or (-2 }\pm\text{ 5, 3)}[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is letter B.

State if the given binomial is a factor of the given polynomial.Question #9

Answers

We can use the Factor Theorem to state if the given binomial is a factor of the given polynomial.

The factor theorem states that when f(c)=0 that means the remainder is zero and (x-c) must be a factor of the polynomial.

The given polynomial is:

Then if (k+2) is a factor of the polynomial, k+2=0, k=-2, f(-2) must be equal to 0.

Let's check:

[tex]\begin{gathered} f(k)=k^3+8k^2+6k-12 \\ f(-2)=(-2)^3+8(-2)^2+6(-2)-12 \\ f(-2)=-8+8\cdot4-12-12 \\ f(-2)=-8+32-24 \\ f(-2)=32-32 \\ f(-2)=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]
