How did you calculate the price of each nickel to begin with? Thanks

Answers

Answer 1
Mike had a jar of nickels that had five more nickels than he originally thought. If the total amount of nickels was $4.35, how many nickels did Mike think he had originally?


The nickels in the jar are worth $4.35.
A nickel is worth $0.05.
To find the number of nickels in the jar, we divide $4.35 by $0.05.
$4.35/$0/05 = 87
There are 87 nickels in the jar.

He thought there were 5 nickels fewer.
87 - 5 = 82
He though there were 82 nickels.

A normal distribution has a mean of µ = 100 with σ = 20. if one score is randomly selected from this distribution, what is the probability that the score will have a value between x = 90 and x = 120?​

Answers

0.5328 For this problem, you don't have a symmetric difference from the mean, but you can look at both sides. So first, figure out how many standard deviations you're below and above the mean. Standard deviations below the mean (90-100)/20 = -10/20 = -0.5 Standard deviations above the mean (120-100)/20 = 20/20 = 1.0 So your target ranges from half a deviation below to a deviation above the mean. Now using a standard normal table, look up the percentages associated with those deviations. Looking up -0.5 gives you a value of 0.19146 which means that 19.146% of the population lies between the mean and this deviation. Looking up 1.0 gives you a value of 0.34134 which means that 34.134% of the population lies between the mean and this deviation. Adding these values will give you the percent of the population that lies between the two limits. 0.19146 + 0.34134 = 0.5328 Therefore the probability of a random score in the population will have a value between 90 and 120 inclusive is 0.5328.

A salesperson's weekly paycheck is 15% less than a second salesperson's paycheck. The two paychecks total $1425. Find the amount of each paycheck.

Answers

Set up a system of equations
Let x=first salesperson's paycheck
y=second salesperson's paycheck
x= y-.15y
x+y= 1425

Solve by substituting x
(y-.15y)+y= 1425
1.85y= 1425
y= 770.27

Substitute 770.27 for y in order to solve for x
x= (770.27)-.15(770.27)
x= 770.27-115.54
x=654.73

So the first salesperson(x) has a paycheck of $654.73 and the second salesperson(y) has a paycheck of $770.27.

Last year, Gena’s food cart business was $225 in debt. This year, the debt has tripled. Which expressions show how much Gena’s business is currently in debt?

Answers

Frequently, and even historically, the creation and use of negative numbers has been associated with debts. To denote a certain amount of debt, we add a negative sign before the amount to indicate the fact that it's a debt.

Here, Gena's food cart is $225 in debt, so we could indicate that with the negative number -225. If we're tripling the debt, we're going to be multiplying that debt by 3, which corresponds to the expression -225 x 3. If you're adding onto your debt, you're naturally going to still be in debt, so we leave the negative sign on and multiply 225 and 3, obtaining -225 x 3 = -675. Gena's food cart is now $675 in debt.

Kevin has a spinner that has 10 equal sections and 2 sections of each color—red, blue, green, yellow, and purple. Kevin spins the spinner 180 times. Kevin determines about how many times the spinner will land on red or green, and his work is shown below.

Answers

From the problem, the way the spinner is set up could be 

red red blue blue green green yellow yellow purple purple

with two sections of each color and 10 total equal sections.

From this we know that 4 out of the 10 sections are red or green.
That means that there is a 4/10 chance of getting a green or a red every time Kevin spins. 

Multiply 180 by 4/10 and you get 72.

The spinner will land on red or green about 72 times.

Hope this helps!


Final answer:

Kevin's spinner will land on red or green approximately 72 times out of 180 spins since the probability of landing on red or green per spin is 0.4.

Explanation:

The student's question involves determining the expected number of times a spinner will land on specific colors, given that the spinner is spun a large number of times. In this scenario, Kevin has a spinner with 10 equal sections with 2 sections of each color - red, blue, green, yellow, and purple. When Kevin spins the spinner 180 times, he wants to figure out how many times it will land on red or green.

Since there are 2 sections each of red and green out of a total of 10, the probability of landing on either red or green for a single spin is P(red or green) = P(red) + P(green) = 2/10 + 2/10 = 4/10 = 0.4. To find the expected number of times the spinner will land on red or green after 180 spins, we simply multiply the total number of spins by the probability of landing on red or green: 180 spins * 0.4 = 72 spins. Therefore, we can expect the spinner to land on red or green approximately 72 times out of 180 spins.

Recall that a prime number is a natural number whose only factors are itself and 1 (for example, 2, 3, 5, . . . ). the goldbach conjecture, posed in 1742, claims that every even number greater than 2 can be expressed as the sum of two primes. for example, 4 = 2 + 2, 6 = 3 + 3, and 8 = 5 + 3. a deductive proof of this conjecture has never been found. test the conjecture for at least 10 even numbers and present an inductive argument for its truth. do you think the conjecture is true? why or why not?

Answers

Prime Number is a number whose only factors are itself and one. For example 1,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23… Now consider the following arguments : Every even number greater than 2 can be expressed as sum of two primes. Now consider the following premises:


Premise 1 : 4 = 2 + 2 

Premise 2 : 10 = 5 + 5 

Premise 3 : 12 = 5 + 7 

Premise 4 : 16 = 5 + 11 

Premise 5 : 18 = 5 + 13 

Premise 6 : 22 = 11 + 11 

Premise 7 : 30 = 7 + 23 

Premise 8 : 32 = 3 + 29 

Premise 9 : 40 = 3 + 37 

Premise 10 : 52 = 5 + 47 

Premise 11 : 100 = 3 + 97 

Conclusion : every whole number is sum of two prime numbers. 

 

All 11 cases are different, yet the rule applies to all. This outcome offers a strong inductive argument in favor of the conclusion or rule specified. It can be strengthened by additional cases that confirm the rule. Conjecture specified will be true because each number can be specified as sum of two primes. As each whole number will have difference os 1, 2, 3, 5, or 7 between the number and the nearest prime number. Consider the following example :


34 = 31 + 3 

36 = 33 + 3 


Hence the conjecture “Every number greater than two can ve expressed as the sum of two primes” is true.

Twenty-seven minus 1.5  of a number (x) is not more than 36. What is the number?

Answers

Translate this into symbols:  27 - 1.5x  is equal to or less than 36.  Find x.

Add 1.5x to both sides, so as to make the coefficient of x positive:

27 = 36 + 1.5x, or    -9 = 1.5x,    or x = -6              but also
                                                        x > -6

Check:  let x = -6.   Is the given equation then true? 

27 = 36 + 1.5(-6) => -9 = -9?  Yes.

Check:  let x > -6.  Is  Twenty-seven minus 1.5  of a number (x)  not more than 36?                      27 - 1.5(0) not more than 36?  True.

Thus, x is equal to or greater than -6.

The Sanders family and the Wright family each used their sprinklers last summer. The Sanders family's sprinkler was used for 20 hours. The Wright family's sprinkler was used for 35 hours. There was a combined total output of 1025L of water. What was the water output rate for each sprinkler if the sum of the two rates was 40L per hour?

Answers

Sent a picture of the solution to the problem (s).

The water output rate for the Sanders family's sprinkler was 25 liters per hour, and for the Wright family's sprinkler was 15 liters per hour.

Let the water output rate as "x" liters per hour and the water output rate for the Wright family's sprinkler as "y" liters per hour.

Given that the combined total output of water from both sprinklers was 1025L, we can set up the following equation:

20x + 35y = 1025

We also know that the sum of the two rates is 40L per hour:

x + y = 40

x = 40 - y

Substituting this value of x into the first equation:

20(40 - y) + 35y = 1025

800 - 20y + 35y = 1025

15y = 225

y = 15

Substituting this value of y back into the second equation:

x + 15 = 40

x = 25

Therefore, the water output rate for the Sanders family's sprinkler was 25 liters per hour, and for the Wright family's sprinkler was 15 liters per hour.
