Carolyn is building a pen for her dog. The perimeter of the pen is 52 ft
a) Explain how you can use a proportion to convert the perimeter into yards and feet.
b) The fencing material is sold by the yard. It costs 10.99 per yard. What is the cost of material before taxes

Answers

Answer 1
a) wouldn't you just divide it by 4?
b)52/3=17 1/3 17 1/3*10.99= 190.493333333...(you get the point)
Answer 2

Carolyn's dog pen with a 52 ft perimeter is approximately 17.33 yards in length. Fencing material costs $10.99 per yard, making the total cost before taxes around $190.44.

Carolyn is constructing a dog pen with a perimeter of 52 feet. To convert the perimeter from feet to yards, we can use the fact that 1 yard equals 3 feet. Since she is purchasing fencing material by the yard, Carolyn needs to know the total length of fencing in yards. This requires setting up a proportion:

1 yard / 3 feet = x yards / 52 feet

Multiplying both sides by 52 gives us x = 52 / 3 yards. Upon calculating, we find that the pen's perimeter is approximately 17.33 yards.

Since the fencing material costs $10.99 per yard, to find the total cost before taxes, we multiply the number of yards needed by the price per yard:
17.33 yards × $10.99/yard = $190.4367

The cost for the fencing materials before taxes is approximately $190.44.

Answers

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.17=3(g+3)−g
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.17=3(g+3)−g
Simplify: (Show steps)17=2g+9
Step 2: Flip the equation.2g+9=17
Step 3: Subtract 9 from both sides.2g+9−9=17−92g=8
Step 4: Divide both sides by 2.2g2=82g=4
Answer:g=4
do you need it simplified if you do then:

you multiply 3 into the parentheses 17=3(g+3)-g
                                                              17=3g+9-g
then add like terms 17=3g+9-g meaning g
                                          17=3g+9

The absolute value of a number is always greater than its opposite. Is this true?
A) No; the absolute value of a negative number is equal to its opposite.
B) No; all negative numbers are greater than their opposites.

Answers

I sugges you to go with this one: A) No; the absolute value of a negative number is equal to its opposite. As it's correct explanation.

The absolute value of a positive number and its opposite is always equal. So the given statement is not true.

Absolute value represents the distance of a point from the origin. The distance of a positive number and its opposite will always be the same from the origin. Consider the following example:

The number is 5. The absolute value of 5 is | 5 | = 5

The opposite of 5 is -5. The absolute value of -5 is |-5| = 5

This shows the absolute value of a number and its opposite will always be equal. For any positive number x, we can write:

| x | = | -x | = x

So, the correct answer is:

A) No; the absolute value of a negative number is equal to its opposite.

If a and b are parallel lines and m <3 = 128º, what is the measure of <8?

A) 134º
B) 54º
C) 52º
D) 49º

Image Bellow :-)! thanks in advance! =]

Answers

Final answer:

Given the information that angle 3 is 128 degrees and lines a and b are parallel, angle 8 would also be 128 degrees. But none of the provided options matches 128 degrees, implying missing or incorrect information in the question.

Explanation:

In geometry, if lines are parallel, the corresponding angles are equal. Given that a and b are parallel lines and angle 3 is 128°, if angle 8 corresponds to angle 3, angle 8 would also be 128°. However, the possible values provided don't include 128°. Therefore, there seems to be insufficient information or a mistake in the question to give a definite answer. All possible answers: A) 134º, B) 54º, C) 52º, D) 49º - don't match with 128º. Perhaps there's an intermediary step or piece of information missing.

Find the largest possible area for a rectangle with base on the x-axis and upper vertices on the curve

y=8-x^2 Find the largest possible area for a rectangle with base on the x-axis and upper vertices on the curve

y=8-x^2

Answers

So here is how we find the answer to this given problem.
The formula for area is: A=(l)(w)
So, A=(2x)(8-x²)
A=16x-2x³
dA/dx = 16-6x²
then you will use calculus to get the absolute local maximum of x by letting dA/dx = 0
then wha you will get is x = 2sqrt(6)/3
so the area would be= 64 * sqrt(6) / 9
or 64√6/9.
Based on the choices given, the answer would be option D. 
Hope this answer helps.
Final answer:

The given curve is a quadratic function and to find the area of a rectangle under it with maximum area, we consider the rectangle's base as an interval on x-axis and find the maximum value using calculus. The maximum area is achieved when x is sqrt(8/3).

Explanation:

To find the largest possible area for a rectangle with its base on the x-axis and upper vertices on the curve y=8-x^2, we would use calculus, specifically optimization.

Consider the base of the rectangle as the interval [-x, x] along the x-axis. Hence, the width of the rectangle would be 2x and the height would be the value of the curve at any x, which is 8-x^2.

Therefore, the area A of the rectangle can be expressed as A = (2x)*(8-x^2) = 16x - 2x^3.

To maximize the area, we take the derivative of A with respect to x, set it equal to zero and solve for x. The derivative is A' = 16 - 6x^2. Setting this to 0, we get 6x^2 = 16 or x = √(8/3).

Substituting x = √(8/3) back into the original equation y = 8 - x^2 will give the maximum height of the rectangle, and hence its maximum area.

Confirm that f and g are inverses by showing that f(g(x)) = x and g(f(x)) = x.

f(x) = x3 + 4 and g(x) = Cube root of quantity x minus four.

Answers

f(x) = x³ + 4 and g(x) = ∛(x - 4)

so, the first thing the question asks of you is to see that f(g(x)) = x. try it out, plugging g(x) in as the x-variable in the first equation:

f(g(x)) = (∛(x - 4))³ + 4

they were merciful in writing this problem, and thankfully your cube roots cancel out and don't cause you any trouble. continue solving:

f(g(x)) = (∛(x - 4))³ + 4  ... cube root and exponent cancel
f(g(x)) = x - 4 + 4  ... simplify
f(g(x)) = x

so, yep. that one worked. try out the second half of the question: g(f(x)) = x

g(f(x)) = ∛((x³ + 4) - 4)  ... simplify inside your radical, cancelling out the 4s
g(f(x)) = ∛(x³)  ... the cube root of x³ is x itself, so:
g(f(x)) = x

and there you are. you've confirmed that these are inverses.

Answer:

[tex]1\frac{11}{24}[/tex] cup more water than sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

Jalil mixed the number of cups of sugar =  [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

with the number of cups of water =  [tex]\frac{11}{6}[/tex]

We have to find the additional amount of water that is used in his mixture.

So we will subtract the amount of sugar from the amount of water.

[tex]\frac{11}{6}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{44-9}{24}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{35}{24}[/tex]

= [tex]1\frac{11}{24}[/tex] cup

[tex]1\frac{11}{24}[/tex] cup more water is used in this mixture.

Answer:

c)360

Step-by-step explanation:

The least common multiples is the smallest common multiple.

To find the common multiple you have to divide the option given by the numbers: 20, 24, and 45 and result of each operation should be an integer number.

Let's review why answers a) and b) are not common multiple.

Answer a) 30

45 ÷ 30=  1,5 .

1.5 is not integer number ,So, 30 is not multiple of 45.

Answer b)180

180 ÷ 24=  7.5

7.5 is not integer number, So, 180 is not multiple of 24.

c) If you divide 20, 24 and 45 divided 360, the result is an integer.

360÷20=18

360÷24=15

360÷45=8

360 is common multiple of the three numbers. And it is the LCM.

Mike has an adjusted gross income of $85,643. He claims two exemptions and can deduct $896 for state income tax, $2,145 for charitable donations, and $3,473 for medical expenses. If the standard deduction is $5,700 and exemptions are each worth $3,650, what is Mike’s total taxable income? a. $72,643 b. $75,479 c. $71,829 d. $66,129

Answers

The real answer is C. $71,829. Just took the engenuity test.

Final answer:

Mike's total taxable income is $71,829.

Explanation:

To calculate Mike's total taxable income, we need to subtract his deductions and exemptions from his adjusted gross income. According to the given information, his adjusted gross income is $85,643. He claims two exemptions, which are each worth $3,650, so the total exemption amount is $7,300. He can deduct $896 for state income tax, $2,145 for charitable donations, and $3,473 for medical expenses. Thus, the total deduction amount is $6,514. Therefore, Mike's total taxable income is:



Total taxable income = adjusted gross income - (deductions + exemptions)

Total taxable income = $85,643 - ($6,514 + $7,300)

Total taxable income = $85,643 - $13,814

Total taxable income = $71,829



So, the correct answer is c. $71,829

For example, he likes 25 because it is 52, 400 because it is 202, and 144 because it is 122. Numbers like 24, 300, and 145 are not perfect squares and therefore are not liked by Ralph.

To determine which number Ralph would like from a given list, you should identify which numbers are perfect squares. For instance, between the numbers 146 and 144, Ralph would like 144 as it is a perfect square (122) whereas 146 is not a perfect square.
