If s is true and j is false, is the following true or false (~s v j) ^ (s v~ j)

Answers

s = true
~s = false
-------------
j = false
~j = true
-------------
~s = false and j = false, so,
~s v j = (false) v (false)
~s v j = false
-------------
Similarly,
s v ~j = (true) v (true)
s v ~j = true
-------------
We have 
~s v j = false
and 
s v ~j = true
which lead to this when we conjunct the two logical expressions
(~s v j) ^ (s v ~j) = (false) ^ (true)
(~s v j) ^ (s v ~j) = false
-------------

Bryce and Rachel are collecting canned goods for the local food bank. Bryce's goal is to collect 32 items. Rachel's goal is to collect 24 items. If Rachel and Bryce each meet their goal, what fraction of Bryce's goal does Rachel collect?

Answers

I think the fraction would be 3/4.

Rachel collects 3/4 or 75% of Bryce's goal if they both meet their goals in the canned goods drive

The question involves determining what fraction of Bryce's goal Rachel collects if they both meet their personal goals for a canned goods drive. Bryce's goal is to collect 32 items, and Rachel's goal is to collect 24 items. To find the fraction of Bryce's goal that Rachel collects, you divide Rachel's goal by Bryce's goal.

Here's the calculation:

Rachel's collection / Bryce's collection = 24 / 32 = 3/4

This means that Rachel collects 3/4 or 75% of the number of items that Bryce collects

Suppose the Willard gold nugget was turned into 4 equal sized gold bricks. If one of the bricks was sold how many ounces of the Willard nugget would be left?

Answers

788/4= 197; 197 ounces for each golden brick. 

---- 197x4= 788 so if 197 oz was sold then 788-197= 591oz.

 > There would only be 591 oz left

The number of ounces left after one brick is sold is 591.

What is an expression?

An expression is a way of writing a statement with more than two variables or numbers with operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Example: 2 + 3x + 4y = 7 is an expression.

We have,

Willard gold nuggets = 788 ounces

The number of equal-sized bricks = 4

Now,

The number of ounces in each of the 4 bricks.

= 788/4

= 197 ounces

Number of bricks sold = 1

The remaining ounces.

= 788 - 197

= 591 ounces

Thus,

The number of ounces left is 591.

How do you convert 10/6 into a mixed number

Answers

Well, First you want to find out how many times six can go into ten. Since its only once, you immediately get the number 1 as your whole number. Now because you've taken six out of ten you're left with 4/6. The mixed number would be 1 and 4/6 or 1 and 2/3 if you're simplifying
Hi. To convert 10/6 into a decimal, you simply divide the bottom into the top. In this case, it would be 10 ÷ 6.

6 can go into 10 1 time and will have a remainder of 4. You bring the 4 up and place the 6 under it. This will give you the mixed number of 1 4/6 which can be reduced to 1 2/3

See the attached for a visual. Hope this helps. If you have further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

what is the area of the figure?

Answers

Notice that the triangle is a right isosceles triangle, because the given angle measures are 45° and 90°, so the third angle measure is 180°-90°-45°=45°.

The length of the hypotenuse is 24 ft. Let the side lengths of the 2 equal sides be a.


By the Pythagorean theorem we have:

[tex]a^2+a^2=24^2[/tex]

thus

[tex]2a^2=24^2[/tex]

divide both sides by 2, and take the square root:

[tex]a= \frac{24}{ \sqrt{2} } = \frac{24 \sqrt{2} }{2}=12 \sqrt{2} [/tex]


The area of the triangle is given by the formula:

Answers

5-7.2+2.2=0 he is in the same place he started

Answer: 5ft - 7.2ft +2.2 ft = 0

When he finishes the trick he will be in the starting point.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to write the expression we have to analyze the information given:

Forward: 5 feet Backwards: 7.2 feet Forward: 2.2 feet

So, we simply have to sum the tricks that takes him forward and subtract the tricks that take him backwards.

Mathematically speaking:

5ft - 7.2ft +2.2 ft = 0

When he finishes the trick he will be in the starting point, because the expression equals 0.

Solve by making an equation

The first side of a triangle is twice the length of the second side; the third side is 20 feet less than three times the second side. The perimeter of the triangle is 106 feet. Find the three sides.
Answer:

Answers

Let the second side be x


then,
first side = twice the length of the second side
= 2x

third side = 20 feet less than three times the second side
3 (second side ) - 20
= 3 (2x) -20
= 6x - 20



perimete of a triangle = sum of all sides,

substitute the values we know,
and you'll be left with this equation

106 = x + 2x + 6x - 20
106+ 20 = 9x
126 = 9x
126/9 = x
14 = x

so,

measure of second side = x = 14 feet

measure of first side = 2x = 2 (14) = 28 feet

measure of thurd side = 6x - 20 = 6 (14)-20 = 84- 20 = 64 feet.

the three sides of the triangle are 42 feet, 21 feet, and 43 feet,

Let's denote the second side of the triangle as ( x ). According to the problem, the first side is twice the length of the second side, which makes it ( 2x). The third side is 20 feet less than three times the second side, so it is ( 3x - 20 ).

Now, we can write the equation for the perimeter of the triangle:

[tex]\[ \text{Perimeter} = \text{First side} + \text{Second side} + \text{Third side} \][/tex]

[ 106 = 2x + x + (3x - 20) ]

Now, combine like terms and solve for \( x \):

[ 106 = 6x - 20 ]

Add 20 to both sides:

[ 6x = 126 ]

Divide both sides by 6:

[ x = 21 ]

So, the second side is 21 feet. Using this, we can find the other two sides:

First side = [tex]\( 2x = 2 \times 21 = 42 \) feet[/tex]

Third side = [tex]\( 3x - 20 = 3 \times 21 - 20 = 63 - 20 = 43 \) feet[/tex]

Therefore, the three sides of the triangle are 42 feet, 21 feet, and 43 feet, respectively.

To recap the process:

1. Let ( x ) represent the second side of the triangle.

2. Write the equation for the perimeter using the given information.

3. Simplify the equation and solve for ( x ).

4. Substitute the value of ( x ) back into the expressions for the first and third sides to find their lengths.

5. Confirm the final answer by checking that the sum of the three sides equals the given perimeter.

solve the system by graphing y=2x^2+3x+1. Y=2x+1

Answers

the solution to the system of equations by graphing is [tex]\( (0,1), (-5/2,6) \)[/tex]

The correct option is (C).

The generated image above represents a graphical solution to the system of equations given:

[tex]\[ y = 2x^2 + 3x + 1 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ y = -2x + 1 \][/tex]

However, the graph does not clearly show the exact points of intersection between the parabola and the line. To find the solutions accurately, we would typically set the two equations equal to each other and solve for [tex]\( x \)[/tex]:

[tex]\[ 2x^2 + 3x + 1 = -2x + 1 \][/tex]

Solving this equation algebraically will give us the [tex]\( x \)[/tex]-coordinates of the points of intersection. The corresponding [tex]\( y \)[/tex]-values can then be found by substituting these [tex]\( x \)[/tex]-values back into either of the original equations.

Since I cannot perform this algebraic computation at the moment, you can solve the equation using the following steps:

1. Move all terms to one side of the equation to set it to zero.

2. Solve the resulting quadratic equation, either by factoring, completing the square, or using the quadratic formula.

3. Substitute the [tex]\( x \)[/tex]-values back into one of the original equations to find the [tex]\( y \)[/tex]-values.

Carrie and Krystal are taking a road trip from Greenville to North Valley. Each person has her own map, and the scales on the maps are different.

a) On Carrie's map, Greenville and North Valley are 4.5 inches apart. The scale on her map is 1 inch = 20 miles. How far is Greenville from North Valley?

b) The scale on Krystal’s map is 1 inch = 18 miles. How far apart are Greenville and North Valley on Krystal’s map?

Answers

On Carrie's map, Greenville and North Valley are 90 miles away from each other. On Krystal's map they are 81 miles away from each other.

a)Carrie's map indicates Greenville and North Valley are 90 miles apart. b) On Krystal's map, using a scale of 1 inch = 18 miles, the distance is 5 inches.

Part a:

On Carrie's map, Greenville and North Valley are 4.5 inches apart. The scale on her map is 1 inch = 20 miles. To determine the distance between the two locations:

Measure the distance on the map: 4.5 inches.

Multiply by the scale: 4.5 inches * 20 miles/inch.

Result: The actual distance is 4.5 * 20 = 90 miles.

Part b:

The scale on Krystal’s map is 1 inch = 18 miles. To find how far apart Greenville and North Valley are on Krystal's map, we use the actual distance calculated from part a (90 miles) and apply Krystal’s map scale:

Divide the actual distance by the scale: 90 miles / 18 miles/inch.

Result: The distance between Greenville and North Valley on Krystal's map is 90 / 18 = 5 inches.
