Answer:

7/50

Step-by-step explanation:

Experimental and theoretical probability are much different.

With experimental, just read the experiment: the number two was rolled 7 times.

Put that over 50.

Avoid questions with theoretical probability, that's where math comes in.

Final answer:

The experimental probability of rolling a two on a number cube that was rolled 50 times and showed the number two 7 times is 0.14 or 14%.

Explanation:

To calculate the experimental probability of the number cube showing the number two, we divide the number of times two appears by the total number of rolls. In this case, the number cube was rolled 50 times and the number two appeared 7 times. Therefore, the experimental probability, denoted as P(2), is calculated as:

P(2) = Number of times two appears / Total number of rolls

P(2) = 7 / 50

P(2) = 0.14

So, the experimental probability of rolling a two on this number cube, based on the given data, is 0.14 or 14%.

The angle of elevation from Jonathan to Mina is approximately 43.81 degrees.

If you know the lengths of two sides of a right triangle, you can use trigonometric ratios to calculate the measures of one (or both) of the acute angles.

Here,
We can use the tangent function to find the angle of elevation from Jonathan to Mina.

Let θ be the angle of elevation, then we have:

tan(θ) = opposite / adjacent

Where the opposite is the height of the tower (389 feet) and adjacent is the distance between Jonathan and the base of the tower (412 feet).

So, we have:

tan(θ) = 389 / 412

θ ≈ 43.81 degrees

Therefore, the angle of elevation from Jonathan to Mina is approximately 43.81 degrees.

Answer:

It is c = kt.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is direct variation . As the time increases the number of cranes increases.

The equation is c = kt  where k is the constant  of variation.  In this case it will be a positive value because c is increasing with time.

If they make 20 cranes in 10 minutes then we can find the value of k by plugging in these values;

20 = k * 10

g = 20/10

k = 2.

So they make 2 cranes per minute.

Correct answer on ed is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Just did the exam and it was correct.

The solution is A = ( x - 14 ) / ( x + 4 )

The value of the equation ( h * f * g ) ( x ) = ( x - 14 ) / ( x + 4 )

What is Composition of functions?

Evaluation of a function at the value of another function is known as Composition of function. A function composition is a process in which two functions, f and g, form a new function, h, in such a way that h(x) = g(f(x)). This signifies that function g is being applied to the function x. So, in essence, a function is applied to the output of another function.

Given data ,

Let the function f ( x ) be represented as

f ( x ) = ( x - 6 ) / x

Let the function g ( x ) be represented as

g ( x ) = x + 4

Let the function h ( x ) be represented as

h ( x ) = 3x - 2

Now , the equation is ( h * f * g ) ( x )

The equation of composition of functions can be simplified as

h * ( f ( g ( x ) ) ) = h * ( f ( x + 4 ) )

On simplifying the equation , we get

h * ( f ( x + 4 ) ) = h * [ ( x + 4 - 6 ) / ( x + 4 ) ]

h * ( f ( x + 4 ) ) = h * [ ( x - 2 ) / ( x + 4 ) ]

Now , the composition of h * ( f ( g ( x ) ) ) is given by

h ( x ) = 3x - 2

Substitute the value of x as ( x - 2 ) / ( x + 4 ) , we get

( h * f * g ) ( x ) = 3 [ ( x - 2 ) / ( x + 4 ) ] - 2

( h * f * g ) ( x ) = ( 3x - 6 ) / ( x + 4 ) - 2

( h * f * g ) ( x ) = ( 3x - 6 - 2x - 8 ) / ( x + 4 )

( h * f * g ) ( x )  = ( x - 14 ) / ( x + 4 )

Therefore , the value of A is ( x - 14 ) / ( x + 4 )

Hence , the value of ( h * f * g ) ( x )  is ( x - 14 ) / ( x + 4 )

To find the tension in each cable, we need to consider the forces acting on the weight. Using Newton's second law and trigonometry, we can set up equations to solve for the tension in each cable. The tension in each cable is (OPTION C) 50 lb.

To find the tension in each cable, we need to consider the forces acting on the weight. In this case, there are two cables pulling upward and the weight pulling downward. Since the weight is in equilibrium, the sum of the upward forces must equal the downward force. Let's label the tension in the first cable as T1 and the tension in the second cable as T2.

Using Newton's second law, we can set up the following equation: T1 + T2 = 100 lb. We also know that the angle between each cable and the vertical is the same, so the horizontal components of tension in both cables are equal. Let's call this component T.

Since the weight is in equilibrium, the vertical components of tension in the cables must also balance the weight's weight. The vertical component of tension in each cable can be found using trigonometry. Let's call this component V.

Now, we can set up two equations for the horizontal and vertical components:

T + T = 100 lb (Equation 1)

V + V = weight of the weight = 100 lb (Equation 2)

Since T1 + T2 = 2T, Equation 1 becomes:

2T = 100 lb

T = 50 lb

Substituting T = 50 lb into Equation 2, we can find V:

2V = 100 lb

V = 50 lb

Therefore, the tension in each cable is 50 lb.

Set up a ratio in the form of pages/minute:

[tex]\frac{pages}{minute} :[/tex]

then fill in next to that how many pages per minute George can read:

[tex]\frac{pages}{minute}:\frac{15}{12}[/tex]

Now we want to figure out how long (time is our unknown, so we call that x) it will take him to read 85 pages.  The 85 goes in a ratio on the same line as the other number of pages:

[tex]\frac{pages}{minute}:\frac{15}{12}=\frac{85}{x}[/tex]

Cross multiply to get 15x = 1020

Now divide both sides by 15 to get x = 68 minutes, which is an hour and 8 minutes.

Answer:

68 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that George read 15 pages in a book in 12 minutes, and we need to find out how long it will take him to finish the book if it has 85 pages, we must first find how much minutes it takes to read per page because we need to find the amount of time.

Write an equation (In this case p=pages and t= minutes or time):

(Remember! We are trying to find the minutes per page, not how many pages per minute.)

15p=12t

p=12/15t

p=0.8t

We now know he reads 1 page in 0.8 minutes. Given that we need to find the amount of time to read 85 pages, multiply 0.8 by 85 because 0.8 minutes=1 page.

85*0.8=68

Therefore, it takes him 68 minutes to read 85 pages

The range of width is 10 ≤ W ≤ 28

Step-by-step explanation:

* lets study the meaning of compound inequality

- If x is greater than a and x is smaller than b, then x is between a and b

∵ x > a and x < b

∴ The compound inequality is ⇒ a < x < b

# Ex: ∵ x > -2 and x < 10

∴ The compound inequality is ⇒ -2 < x < 10

- If x is greater than or equal a and x is smaller than or equal b, then

 x is from a and b

∵ x ≥ a and x ≤ b

∴ The compound inequality is ⇒ a ≤ x ≤ b

# Ex: ∵ x ≥ -2 and x ≤ 10

∴ The compound inequality is ⇒ -2 ≤ x ≤ 10

* Now lets solve the problem

- The garden in the shape of a rectangle with dimensions length (L)

 and width (W)

- The length of the garden is 10 feet

- The perimeter (P) of the garden is at least 40 feet and not more than

  76 feet

∵ L = 10 feet

∵ P = 2L + 2W

- At least means greater than or equal (≥) and not more than means

 smaller than or equal (≤)

∴ P ≥ 40 feet

∴ P ≤ 76 feet

- lets use the rule of the perimeter

∴ 2(10) + 2(W) ≥ 40 ⇒ simplify

∴ 20 + 2W ≥ 40 ⇒ subtract 20 from both sides

∴ 2W ≥ 20 ⇒ divide both sides by 2

∴ W ≥ 10 ⇒ (1)

- Do similar with P ≤ 76

∴ 2(10) + 2(W) ≤ 76 ⇒ simplify

∴ 20 + 2W ≤ 76 ⇒ subtract 20 from both sides

∴ 2W ≤ 56 ⇒ divide both sides by 2

∴ W ≤ 28 ⇒ (2)

- From (1) and (2)

∴ 10 ≤ W ≤ 28 ⇒ compound inequality

* The range of the width is from 10 feet to 28 feet

Betty use the MEDIAN.

Step-by-step explanation:

The MEDIAN is the middle which is 50.

45,48,50,85,125

Hope this helps

Final answer:

The mean tip amount Betty made was $70.60, and the median was $50. Betty's boss used the mean to describe her average nightly tips, whereas Betty used the median.

Explanation:

To calculate the mean and median tip amount for Betty's nightly tips, we list her tips from last week: $50, $45, $48, $125, and $85. To find the mean, we add all the tip amounts together and divide by the number of days she worked. Betty worked 5 days, so the mean is calculated as: (50 + 45 + 48 + 125 + 85) / 5 = $70.60. The median is the middle number when the tips are arranged in order, which are $45, $48, $50, $85, and $125. Thus, the median tip amount is $50.

Based on this information, Betty's boss used the mean to describe her average tip, while Betty herself used the median to describe her average tip.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount invested at the higher rate (6%). Then the amount invested at the lower rate is (2400-x) and the total interest earned is ...

  6%·x + 4%·(2400-x) = 5.5%·2400

Dividing by % and rearranging, we have ...

  x(6 -4) = 2400(5.5 -4)

  x = 2400·(5.5 -4)/(6 -4) = 2400(1.5/2) = 2400·0.75

  x = 1800 . . . . . . . . amount invested at 6%

  2400-x = 600 . . . amount invested at 4%

Maria put $1800 in the 6% account and $600 in the 4% account.

_____

Comment on the solution

You will note that the proportion of the investment that went to the higher interest rate account is (5.5-4)/(6-4). This is the ratio of the mixed interest rate less the lower rate to the difference of account rates. This will be the generic solution to mixture problems, so is worthy of note for that reason.

Answer:  

For 4% interest, investment $600

For 6% interest, investment $1,800  

Explanation:  

Maria invested $2,400 into two accounts. One account paid 4% interest and the other paid 6% interest. She earned 5.5% interest on the total investment.

It is a system of linear equations in two variables. Variables are x and y. Solve for x and y using substitution method.

In substitution method: First solve for one variable in terms of another variable and then substitute into another equation.

Further explanation:  

Let $x invested in account which paying 4% interest.

Let $y invested in another account which paying 6% interest.  

Therefore,  x + y = 2400   --------------(1)

                                                                                        = 132

Therefore,  0.04x + 0.06y = 132 -----------(2)

Solve system of equations for x and y , using substitution method.

                     x + y = 2400  

solve for y in terms of x and we get,

                         y = 2400 - x ------------ (3)  

Substitute the value of y into equation (2) and we get,  

                   0.04x + 0.06(2400-x) = 132

                      0.04x + 144 - 0.06x = 132

                                            -0.02x = 132 - 144

                                                     [tex]x=\dfrac{-12}{-0.02}[/tex]  

                                                     [tex]x=600[/tex]

Substitute the value of x into eq(3)  

                                                y = 2400 - 600

                                                y = 1800

In account paying 4% interest, invest $600 and paying 6% interest invest $1,800
