Height of the water after 3 minutes is 31.25 inches

Given that height of the water in a fish pond is 42.5 inches

Water is being drained from the pond at a rate of 3.75 inches per minute

To find:  height of the water after 3 minutes

According to given information,

Water drained in 1 minute = 3.75 inches

So height of the water after 3 minutes is calculated by following steps:

1) find how much water is drained in 3 minutes

2) subtract value obtained in step 1 from total height of water in fish pond

water is drained in 3 minutes = Water drained in 1 minute x 3

[tex]\text {water is drained in } 3 \text { minutes }=3.75 \times 3=11.25[/tex]

Thus water drained in 3 minutes is 11.25 inches

height of the water after 3 minutes = total height of water in fish pond - water drained in 3 minutes

height of the water after 3 minutes = 42.5 - 11.25 = 31.25 inches

Thus height of the water after 3 minutes is 31.25 inches

Final answer:

After draining water at a rate of 3.75 inches per minute for 3 minutes, the height of the water in the pond decreases from 42.5 inches to 31.25 inches.

Explanation:

The question is asking for the height of the water in a pond after draining some amount of water for a specified time. Initially, the pond has a water height of 42.5 inches. Water is being drained at a rate of 3.75 inches per minute. To find the height of the water after 3 minutes, we need to calculate the total amount of water drained and subtract it from the initial height.

Total water drained in 3 minutes = Drain rate per minute × number of minutes = 3.75 inches/minute × 3 = 11.25 inches.

Height of water after 3 minutes = Initial height - Total water drained = 42.5 inches - 11.25 inches = 31.25 inches.

Therefore, the height of the water in the pond after 3 minutes is 31.25 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: the maximum number of visits would be 38

Step-by-step explanation:

A person can pay $7 for a membership to the history museum and then go to the museum for just $1 per visit.

Let x represent the number of visits that the person makes to the museum after paying for the membership. This means that if the person makes x visits to the history museum, the total cost would be

7 + x

If a member of the history museum pays a total of $45. It means that the number of visits that he can make to the history museum would be

7 + x = 45

x = 45 - 7 = 38

Answer:The equation to determine how much Elise will pay for a student ticket is 2x = 33

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the price of one student ticket.

Elise and her dad are planning to attend the state fair and the price of an adult ticket is $21.00

The price of an adult ticket is $10.00 more than two thirds the price of a student ticket. This means that

21 = 2/3 × x + 10

The equation to determine how much Elise will pay for a student ticket would be

2x/3 + 10 = 21

2x/3 = 21 - 10 = 11

2x = 11×3 = 33

x = 33/2 = $16.5

To determine how much Elise will pay for a student ticket, we can follow these steps:

1. Let's assign a variable to represent the price of the student ticket. We'll call it "x".

2. According to the information given, the adult ticket is $10 more than two-thirds of the price of a student ticket. So, the equation can be written as:

Adult ticket price = 2/3 * x + $10

3. The adult ticket price is given as $21. Substituting this value into the equation, we have:

$21 = 2/3 * x + $10

4. To isolate the variable, we can subtract $10 from both sides of the equation:

$21 - $10 = 2/3 * x

Simplifying, we get:

$11 = 2/3 * x

5. Finally, to solve for "x", we can multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 2/3, which is 3/2:

($11) * (3/2) = x

Multiplying, we get:

$33/2 = x

Therefore, Elise will pay $16.50 for a student ticket.

In summary, the equation to determine how much Elise will pay for a student ticket is 2/3 * x + $10 = $21, and solving for "x" gives us x = $16.50.

Answer:

A) The value of a is 29.

B) The value of b is greater than 29.

C) In both part A and part B we have used a common property  which is addition property and that we have add 9 on both side of equation in both parts.

D) The value of a in part A is equal to 29 whereas in part B the value of b is greater than 29.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for Part A.

Given,

[tex]a-9=20[/tex]

We have to solve for a.

[tex]a-9=20[/tex]

By using addition property of equality, we will add both side by 9;

[tex]a-9+9=20+9\\a=29[/tex]

Hence the value of a is 29.

Solving for Part B.

Given,

[tex]b-9>20[/tex]

We have to solve for b.

[tex]b-9>20[/tex]

By using addition property of inequality, we will add both side by 9;

[tex]b-9+9>20+9\\b>29[/tex]

Hence the value of b is greater than 29.

Solving for Part C.

In both part A and part B we have used a common property  which is addition property and that we have add 9 on both side of equation in both parts.

Solving for Part D.

The value of a in part A is equal to 29 whereas in part B the value of b is greater than 29.

To solve a - 9 = 20, we add 9 to 20, which results in a = 29. For b - 9 > 20, it's similar; we add 9 to 20, resulting in b > 29. The process is similar for both, but an equation's solution (a) is a single number, while an inequality's solution (b) represents a range of numbers.

To solve part A, which is a - 9 = 20, we will need to isolate the variable 'a' on the left side of the equation. Doing so gives us a = 20 + 9 or a = 29.

For part B, which is to solve b - 9 > 20, the operation is similar, but the result is an inequality, not a specific number. Solving it gives us b > 20 + 9 or b > 29.

The process is similar for both because you are essentially isolating the variable on one side of the equation or inequality. The difference is that the solution for an equation (part A) is a specific number, while the solution for an inequality (part B) is a range of numbers.

Answer:

The dimensions of the drawing are 10 units by 8 units

Step-by-step explanation:                        

we know that

The scale drawing is [tex]\frac{1}{15}\ \frac{unit}{feet}[/tex]

That means ---> 1 unit in the drawing represent 15 feet in the actual

To find out the dimensions of the drawing, multiply the actual dimensions by the scale drawing

so

[tex]150\ ft=150(\frac{1}{15})=10\ units[/tex]

[tex]120\ ft=120(\frac{1}{15})=8\ units[/tex]

Answer:

Person 3 needs to pay $900.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The marginal cost of providing 25 neighborhood street lamps is $2000.

Person 1 is willing to pay $800 for the 25 lamps.

person 2 is willing to pay $300 for the 25 street lamps.

We need to find the minimum amount person 3 is willing to pay for 25 street lamps?

Let person 3 need to pay x amount.

Therefore, the sum of the amount should be equal to $2000.

$2000=$800+$300+x

$2000=$1100+x

x=$2000-$1100

x=$900

Hence, person 3 needs to pay $900.

Person 3 must be willing to pay at least $900 for 25 street lamps to meet the marginal cost of $2000 for efficient provision, considering person 1 and person 2 are contributing a total of $1100.

To determine the minimum amount person 3 must be willing to pay for the 25 street lamps, we need to consider the total cost of providing the lamps and the amount the other two people are willing to pay. The marginal cost for providing the 25 lamps is $2000. Person 1 is willing to pay $800, and person 2 is willing to pay $300. The sum paid by person 1 and person 2 is $800 + $300 = $1100.

Since the total cost is $2000, for efficiency, the total amount paid by all three people should at least match this cost. Therefore, the minimum amount that person 3 must be willing to pay is the difference between the total cost and the sum paid by the first two persons:

Total cost - Sum paid by person 1 and person 2 = Minimum amount person 3 must pay
$2000 - $1100 = $900

Thus, person 3 must be willing to pay at least $900 for the efficient provision of the 25 street lamps.

Answer:

Y = 66x - 1200 will be the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is incomplete; Here is the complete question.

A charity organization had a fundraiser where they sold each ticket for a fixed price. After selling 200 tickets, they had a net profit of $12,000. They had to sell a few tickets just to cover necessary production costs of $1200.

       Let Y represent the net profit (in dollars) when they have sold c tickets. Complete the equation for the relationship between the net profit and the number of tickets sold.

If the selling price of one ticket is $x, then selling price of 200 tickets

= $200x

Since production cost of the tickets = $1200 and profit earned is $12000

Therefore, Profit = Selling price of x tickets - production cost

12000 = 200x - 1200

200x = 13200

x = $66

Now we can rewrite the equation for c tickets sold and profit earned $Y

Y = 66c - 1200

Answer: z= kxy

Step-by-step explanation:

There are three types of variation. We have direct, inverse and joint.

Variation has to do with the manner in which we relate two mor more variables either directly or inversely.

For joint variation, we relate two or more variables to one another. A variable among those variables is written in terms of the remaining variables directly.

According to the question, since we have three variables z, x and y and we are to express z joint as x and y.

Joint variation is a "direct relationship" between variables i.e z will be directly proportional to the product of x and y making k as constant of proportionality. Mathematical relationship will give us;

Answer:

Members of Singing group will buy minimum 135 number of balcony tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Minimum of tickets will be bought =250

Let number of lawn tickets be 'l'.

Also Let number of balcony tickets be 'b'

Now given

The group buys 20 fewer lawn tickets than balcony tickets.

Framing in equation form we get;

[tex]l=b-20[/tex]

Now The Sum of Number of balcony tickets and Number of lawn tickets should be greater than or equal to Minimum of tickets will be bought by the group.

Framing in equation form we get;

Answer:

whole numbers can be written in fraction form. But fraction can or cannot be whole number.

Answer is fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

As, the fraction number is in the form of [tex]\frac{p}{q}[/tex] and the first number is whole number [tex](a)[/tex].

when fraction multiply by whole number,

[tex]\frac{p}{q} \times a=\frac{a \times p}{q}[/tex] is fraction.

For example, [tex]p=2,q=3 \ and \ a=4[/tex]

[tex]\frac{p}{q} \times a=\frac{4 \times 2}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{p}{q} \times a=\frac{8}{3} \Rightarrow \ fraction[/tex]

For example, [tex]p=3,q=5 \ and \ a=5[/tex]

[tex]\frac{p}{q} \times a=\frac{5 \times 3}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{p}{q} \times a=\frac{3}{1} \Rightarrow \ whole \ number[/tex]

Answer: 1/16,384 microbes

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the microbes divides every 30minutes, if the microbes divides by half every 30minutes, then after an hour it will divides by another half that is (1/2)of 1/2 to give 1/4.

Subsequently after another hour, the microbes will reduces to 1/4 of its remains (i.e 1/4) to give 1/16.

Since the denominator is increasing geometrically each hour.

Looking at the trend;

After 1hr = 1/4 of the original microbe = 1/4

After 2 hrs = 1/4 of the remaining microbe = 1/4 of 1/4 = 1/16

Generalizing, we will let the number of hours be n

According to the progression, 1, 1/4,1/16,...n

Since its a Geometric Progression, nth term = ar^n-1

Where a is the first term = 1

r is the common ratio = 1/4

n is the number of hours of decay

After 8hours, the microbes will have been divided by

(1)(1/4)^8-1

= (1/4)^7

= 1/16,384 microbes

Answer:

1/2^16 or 0.0000152588 microbes

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you start with just one microbe that divides every 30 minutes.

This means that the half life of the microbe is 30 minutes or 0.5hours

The interpretation of this half life is that after every half-life, which in this case is 30 minutes, half of the microbe will be gone, and half will remain.

It follows that after another half hour the amount remaining will be

1/2 of 1/2= 1/4 microbes

Thus after 8 hours, there would have been (8/0.5)=16 half lives.

Therefore the amount of microbes remaining will be 1/2^16 of 1 = 0.0625

Alternatively, we could solve the differential equation

dM/dt=kM, where dM/dt is the rate of decay, and M is the amount at any time t, k is the decay constant

Solution of this first order differential equation by separating the variables and integrating yields {dM/M={kt+c, lnM=kt+c, and ......

M=Moexp(-kt)

The initial value Mo=1, when t=0, and given value M=0.5, t=0.5h yields the value of k as follows

0.5=exp(-k*0.5)

ln(0.5)=-k*0.5

k=1.386

After any time time, thus the given expression holds

M=exp(-1.386t)

Thus after 8 hours, the microbes remaining will be

M=exp(-1.386t)=exp(-1.386*8)=0.000152588 microbes.

Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Machine out put power =100 watt

Machine input power=1000 watt

We have to find the efficiency of the machine.

We know that

Efficiency of machine=[tex]\frac{O.p}{I.p}[/tex]

Where O.p=Output power

I.p=Input power

By using the formula

Efficiency of machine=[tex]\frac{100}{1000}=0.1[/tex]

Efficiency of machine (in percent)[tex]0.1\times 100=[/tex]10%

Hence, the efficiency of machine=10%

The efficiency of the machine is 10%, as it is calculated by dividing the output power, 100 watts, by the input power, 1000 watts, and then multiplying by 100 to express it as a percentage.

The efficiency of a machine is calculated by dividing the useful output power by the input power and then multiplying the result by 100 to get a percentage. For the given machine, which puts out 100 watts for every 1000 watts put into it, the calculation would look like this:

Efficiency (Eff) = (Wout / Ein) times 100%

Efficiency (Eff) = (100W / 1000W) times 100%

Efficiency (Eff) = 0.1 times 100%

Efficiency (Eff) = 10%

This means the efficiency of the machine is 10%.

Answer:

2% area reduction

Step-by-step explanation:

The original area is 18.2*28.5=518.7 sq km

1.2% reduction of 18.2 km is 17.9816 km (18.2-18.2*1.2/100)

0.8% reduction of 28.5 km is 28.272 km (28.5-28.5*0.8/100)

The new are is 17.9816*28.272=508.3757 sq km (98 % of the original area)

Another way is (100-1.2)*(100-0.8) LW/(100*100)=0.98LW (98 % of the original area)

From the table, the number of copies can be plotted on the y axis and against the number of minutes on x axis. The slope of the straight line graph that would be formed would represent the become n, the number of copies the machine can print in one minute.

n = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Picking points from the table,

y2 = 650

y1 = 325

x2 = 10

x1 = 5

[tex]cos(\alpha)=\frac{\sqrt{33}}{7}[/tex]

therefore

[tex]sec(\alpha)=\frac{7}{\sqrt{33}}[/tex]

[tex]csc(\beta)=\frac{7}{\sqrt{33}}[/tex]

To find the values of sin(a)&cos(B), tan(a)&cot(B), and sec(a)&csc(B), use trigonometric identities and the reciprocal identities of trigonometric functions.

The question is asking to find the values of sin(a)&cos(B), tan(a)&cot(B), and sec(a)&csc(B). To solve these trigonometric expressions, you need to recall the definitions and relationships between trigonometric functions. Here are the step-by-step calculations:

Answer:

We can use distributive law for the multiplication

And after multiplication result will be 264

Step-by-step explanation:

Lydia has to multiply 32×8.25

She is using standard algorithm of multiplication

Now we have to find the other way of multiplication of  32×8.25

We can use distributive law for the multiplication of the above number

We can write 8.25 as 8+0.25

So multiplication will become 32 ( 8+0.25 ) = 256 + 8 = 264

So after multiplication result will be 264

To solve 32 x 8.25 without the standard algorithm, Lydia can use the distributive property to separately multiply 32 by 8 and then by 0.25 (1/4), resulting in two simple multiplications: 256 and 8. Adding these together gives the answer, 264.

To solve the multiplication problem 32 x 8.25 without the standard algorithm, Lydia can break down the number 8.25 into 8 and 0.25 (which is 1/4) and use the distributive property of multiplication over addition. This allows Lydia to multiply 32 by each part separately and then add the results together.

This strategy simplifies the calculation and can be done with simpler computations or even mental math.

Answer:

a. A minimum of 300

Step-by-step explanation:

If her bill  is $142 then it is a sum of the flat rate plus the money she pays for all the smses she sent. As an equation, it can be expressed this way

106 + 0.12x = 142  where x  is the number of smses

0.12x = 36

x = 300 smses

So if we were told that she pays $142 per month, we'd know that she sends 300 smses. But we are told she pays AT LEAST $142 so there is a possibility that she sends even more than 300 smses
