Answers

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

1.-                           y = 2x - 64

                            x - 2y = 14

Substitution

                            x - 2(2x - 64) = 14

Simplification

                            x - 4x + 128 = 14

                             x - 4x = 14 - 128

                            -3x = - 114

                               x = 114/3

                               x = 38

                             y = 2(38) - 64

                             y = 76 - 64

                             y = 12

Solution (38, 12)

2.-                            y = x - 6

                               3x + 2y = 8

Substitution

                               3x + 2(x - 6) = 8

Simplification

                              3x + 2x - 12 = 8

                              5x = 8 + 12

                              5x = 20

                              x = 20 / 5

                            x = 4

                             y = 4 - 6

                             y = -2

Solution (4 , -2)

3.-                           x - y = 12

                            27 + 3y = 2x

                            x = 12 + y

                            27 + 3y = 2(12 + y)

                            27 + 3y = 24 + 2y

                            3y - 2y = 24 - 27

                                     y = -3

                             x = 12 - 3

                             x = 9

Solution y = -3

4.-                          y = 2x + 14

                           -4x - y = 4

                            -4x - (2x + 14) = 4

                            -4x - 2x - 14 = 4

                            -6x = 4 + 14

                            -6x = 18

                                x = 18/-6

                                x = -3

                            y = 2(-3) + 14

                            y = -6 + 14

                           y = 8

Jon's dog weighs ( v ) pounds. His cat weighs 21 pounds less than his dog. His bunny weighs 3 pounds less than his cat? What is the weight of Jon's pets?

Answers

Answer: the weight of Jon's pet is

(3v - 25) pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of Jon's dog is v pounds.

His cat weighs 21 pounds less than his dog. It means that the weight of his cat would be

(v - 21) pounds

His bunny weighs 3 pounds less than his cat. It means that the weight of his bunny would be

(v - 21) - 3 = (v - 24) pounds

Therefore, the weight of Jon's pets would be the sum of the weight of his dog, his cat and his bunny. It becomes

v + v - 21 + v - 24 = (3v - 25) pounds.

Final answer:

Jon's pets' total weight is calculated by adding the weight of the dog (v pounds), cat (v - 21 pounds), and bunny (v - 24 pounds), which results in 3v - 45 pounds.

Explanation:

To find the weight of Jon's pets, we start with the known weight of the dog and calculate the other animals' weights based on the given relationships. Jon's dog weighs ( v ) pounds. His cat weights 21 pounds less than his dog, so the cat weighs v - 21 pounds. The bunny weighs 3 pounds less than the cat, which means the bunny weighs (v - 21) - 3 pounds or v - 24 pounds.

Therefore, to find the total weight of Jon's pets, we add the weights of the dog, cat, and bunny together:

Dog's weight: v pounds

Cat's weight: v - 21 pounds

Bunny's weight: v - 24 pounds

The total weight is v + (v - 21) + (v - 24), which simplifies to 3v - 45 pounds.

Hillary gets divorced in 2016 and is required to pay her ex-spouse $200 per month until her son reaches 18 years of age in 7 years and $120 per month thereafter. How much of her 2019 payments are deductible as alimony?

Answers

To know how much of Hillary's payments are deductible as alimony in 2019, we first need to figure out how old her son was when Hillary got divorced in 2016.

Given that Hillary has to pay until her son turns 18 and this occurs 7 years after the divorce, this means that her son was 18 - 7 = 11 years old in 2016.

Therefore, he will be turning 18 in 2025 (2016 + 9 years).

In 2019, which is 3 years after 2016, her son would be 11 + 3 = 14 years old. As her son has not yet reached 18 years old, Hillary is still making $200 payments per month in 2019.

Given there are 12 months in a year, the total amount of alimony payments that Hillary made in the year 2019 is 12 * $200 = $2400.

So, the amount of her 2019 payments that are deductible as alimony is $2400.

Joan spend half of her paycheck going to the movies. She washed the family car and earned 7 dollars. What is her weekly paycheck if she ended up with 18 dollars?

Answers

Answer:

her weekly allowance is $16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent Joan's weekly paycheck.

Joan spent half of her paycheck going to the movies. This means that the total amount that she spent at the movies is x/2. The amount that she is left with would be

x - x/2 = x/2

She washed the family car and earned 7 dollars. This means that the total amount left with her is

x/2 + 7

if she ended with 18 dollars, it means that

x/2 + 7 = 18

x/2 = 18 - 7 = 11

x = 2 × 11 = $22

Start with the logistic equation dx dt = kx(M − x). Suppose that we modify our harvesting. That is we will only harvest an amount proportional to current population. In other words we harvest hx per unit of time for some h > 0 (Similar to earlier example with h replaced with hx).

a) Construct the differential equation.
b) Show that if kM > h, then the equation is still logistic.
c) What happens when kM < h?

Answers

Answer:

a) [tex] \frac{dx}{dt}= kx (M-x) -hx[/tex]

[tex] \frac{dx}{dt}= kx (M -x- \frac{h}{k})[/tex]

b) [tex] M -\frac{h}{k}>0 [/tex]

Let's say that [tex] a=M -\frac{h}{k}>0[/tex]

If we multiply the woule equation by k we got:

And then [tec] kx (a -x) <0[/tex] for any value of [tex] x>0[/tex]

And if that hhapens then the population will tend to 0 for any initial condition established/

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following logistic equation [tex] \frac{dx}{dt}= kx (M-x)[/tex]

Part a

We want to modify our harvesting for this case, so we harvest hx per unit of time for some [tex] h>0[/tex]

So then the model with harvesting who is proportional is given by:

[tex] \frac{dx}{dt}= kx (M-x) -hx[/tex]

And we can write like this:

[tex] \frac{dx}{dt}= kx (M -x- \frac{h}{k})[/tex]

Part b

For this case we assume that [tex] kM>h[/tex]and we need to show that the equation is still logistic. So we need that the sollowing quantity higher than 0

[tex] M -\frac{h}{k}>0 [/tex]

Let's say that [tex] a=M -\frac{h}{k}>0[/tex]

The systolic blood pressure of 18-year-old women is normally distributed with a mean of 120 mmHg and a standard deviation of 12 mmHg. What percentage of 18-year-old women have a systolic blood pressure between 96 mmHg and 144 mmHg?

Answers

Final answer:

Approximately 97.72% of 18-year-old women have a systolic blood pressure between 96 mmHg and 144 mmHg.

Explanation:

To find the percentage of 18-year-old women with a systolic blood pressure between 96 mmHg and 144 mmHg, we need to calculate the z-scores for the given values using the formula z = (X - μ) / σ, where X is the value, μ is the mean, and σ is the standard deviation.

For X = 96 mmHg, z = (96 - 120) / 12 = -2.

For X = 144 mmHg, z = (144 - 120) / 12 = 2.

Using a standard normal distribution table, we can find that approximately 0.9772 (97.72%) of the values fall within 2 standard deviations from the mean. Therefore, approximately 97.72% of 18-year-old women have a systolic blood pressure between 96 mmHg and 144 mmHg.

Final answer:

Approximately 95% of 18-year-old women have a systolic blood pressure between 96 mmHg and 144 mmHg, as calculated using Z-scores and the standard normal distribution.

Explanation:

The question asks us to determine the percentage of 18-year-old women who have a systolic blood pressure between 96 mmHg and 144 mmHg, given that the systolic blood pressure is normally distributed with a mean of 120 mmHg and a standard deviation of 12 mmHg.

We will use the concept of Z-scores to find this probability. A Z-score represents the number of standard deviations a data point is from the mean. We can calculate the Z-scores for the systolic blood pressure values of 96 mmHg and 144 mmHg and then use the standard normal distribution table to find the percentages. The calculations are as follows:

Z-score for 96 mmHg = (96 - 120) / 12 = -2
Z-score for 144 mmHg = (144 - 120) / 12 = 2

Looking at the Z-score table, we find that the area between Z = -2 and Z = 2 covers approximately 95% of the data under the normal distribution curve. Therefore, about 95% of 18-year-old women will have a systolic blood pressure between 96 mmHg and 144 mmHg.

A window-washer is climbing a 37-foot ladder leaning against a building. The ladder touches the building 35 feet above the ground. What is the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the base of the building?

Answers

Answer: the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the base of the building is 12 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder makes an angle, θ with the ground thus forming a right angle triangle with the wall of the house.

The length of the ladder represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.

The distance from the ground to the point where the ladder touches the wall of the building represents the opposite side

Therefore, to determine the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the base of the building, x, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

37² = 35² + x²

1369 = x² + 1225

x² = 1369 - 1225 = 144

x = √144 = 12 feet

Final answer:

To find the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the base of the building, use the Pythagorean theorem with the given ladder height and building contact point. Calculate the distance as 12 feet.

Explanation:

A window-washer is climbing a ladder leaning against a building. In this scenario, the ladder is 37 feet long and touches the building 35 feet above the ground. To find the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the base of the building, we can use the Pythagorean theorem.

By applying the Pythagorean theorem: a² + b² = c², where a and b are the distances from the bottom of the ladder to the building and from the base to the building, respectively, and c is the length of the ladder, we can calculate the distance to be 12 feet.

Therefore, the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the base of the building is 12 feet.

A company makes steel rods shaped like cylinders. Each rod has a radius of 4 centimeters and a height of 30 centimeters. If the company used 94,953.6 of steel, how many rods did it make

Answers

Answer:

Company made 63 rods with the given amount of steel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Radius of each rod =4 cm

height of each rod = 30 cm

Number of steel company used = 94953.6

We need to find how many rods company can make.

Solution:

First we will find the Volume of each rod.

Since rod is in cylindrical shape.

So we will use Volume of cylinder.

Now Volume of cylinder is given by π times square of the radius times height.

framing in equation form we get;

Volume of each rod = [tex]\pi r^2h= \pi \times4^2\times 30 = 1507.96 \ cm^3[/tex]

So we can say that steel used to make each rod = 1507.96

Number of steel company used = 94953.6 (given)

To find the number of steel rod company made we will divide Number of steel company used by number of steel used to make each rod.

framing in equation form we get;

number of steel rod company made = [tex]\frac{94953.6}{1507.96}= 62.96\approx63[/tex]

Hence Company made 63 rods with the given amount of steel.

The number of rods made using given data is approximately 63 rods .

To find out how many steel rods a company made based on the total volume of steel used, we need to calculate the volume of one rod and then divide the total volume of steel by this.

The volume of a cylinder (which is the shape of the rods) is calculated using the formula V = πr²h, where V is the volume, r is the radius, and h is the height.

Given that each rod has a radius of 4 centimeters and a height of 30 centimeters, the volume of one rod can be found as follows:

V = π(4²)(30)

   ≈ 3.14(16)(30)

   = 1,507.2 cm³

Given the total volume of steel used is 94,953.6 cm³, the number of rods made can be calculated by dividing the total volume of steel by the volume of one rod:

Number of rods = 94,953.6 cm³ / 1,507.2 cm³

                           ≈ 63

Therefore, the company made approximately 63 steel rods.

If there are 6 randomly selected digits in an automobile license tag, and each digit must be one of the 10 integers (0-9), then there are 106 possible license tags.A. TrueB. False

Answers

Answer: True.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of possible digits in the number system :  10  (from 0 to 9)

If there are 6 randomly selected digits in an automobile license tag, and each digit must be one of the 10 integers (0-9), then the choices for each digit in license tag = 10

Fundamental counting principle , the total number of ways to make 6-digits license tag where the choices for each digit in license tag is 10 will be :

[tex]10\times10\times10\times10\times10\times10=10^6[/tex]

Hence, there are [tex]10^6[/tex] possible license tags.

Therefore , the given statement is correct.

Final answer:

The statement is True because for each of the 6 digits in a license tag, there are 10 possible integers, giving us a total of 10^6 possible combinations.

Explanation:

The question relates to probability and combinatorics, which are branches of mathematics that deal with the likelihood of certain outcomes and the combination of different elements, respectively. If an automobile license tag consists of 6 randomly selected digits and each digit must be one of the 10 integers (0-9), then we must consider every digit independently.

Since there are 10 options for each digit, and there are 6 digits, we calculate the total number of possible license tags by multiplying the number of options for each digit. This is done by raising the number of options (10) to the power of the number of digits (6), which gives us: 10^6. Therefore, the statement is True as there are indeed 10^6 possible license tags.

The correct option is the first one, A two-dimensional array can be viewed as rows and columns.

How to complete the statement?

A two-dimensional array is a data structure that stores elements in a grid-like format with rows and columns. It can be visualized as a table or matrix.

In this context, "rows" refer to the horizontal dimension of the array. Each row consists of a series of elements that are stored sequentially from left to right. The number of rows in the array represents the height or the total count of rows.

"Columns" refer to the vertical dimension of the array. Each column consists of a series of elements that are stored sequentially from top to bottom. The number of columns in the array represents the width or the total count of columns.

By organizing data in rows and columns, a two-dimensional array allows for efficient storage and retrieval of elements. The elements within the array can be accessed by specifying both the row and column indices.

Life hack in this answer!

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct table is the second one, or the table on the bottom right. (Picture included).

Life hack --> To find the relative percentage/frequency of something, all you have to do is take the frequency you are trying to find, and divide it with the total.

Example: You are trying to find the frequency of REGULAR MALE jeans. What is its frequency? To find, all you have to do is divide 120 from 28. Like this:

28 = male regular jeans

120 = total

28 ÷ 120 = ?

28 ÷ 120 = 0.23333333...

Final answer: 0.23

In this scenario, we must round. But remember that you might not always need or have to round.

And, as predicted, the answer of 0.23 is in the second table under REGULAR MALE jeans.

If you have any questions, let me know!

Sam has a total of 40 dvds, movies and tv shows. The number of movies is 4 less then 3 times the number of tv shows. Write and solove a system of equations to find the number of movies and tv shows.

Answers

Answer:Sam has 29 movies.

Sam has 11 TV shows.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of movies that Sam has.

Let y represent the number of TV shows that Sam has.

Sam has a total of 40 dvds, movies and tv shows. This means that

x + y = 40 - - - - - - - - - - -1

The number of movies is 4 less then 3 times the number of tv shows. This means that

x = 3y - 4 - - - - - - - - - - -2

Substituting equation 2 into equation 1, it becomes

3y - 4 + y = 40

4y - 4 = 40

4y = 40 + 4 = 44

y = 44/4 = 11

x = 3y - 4 = 3 × 11 - 4

x = 33 - 4

x = 29

Final answer:

By creating a system of equations from the given problem, m + t = 40 and m = 3t - 4, and solving it through substitution, it was determined that Sam has 29 movies and 11 TV shows in his DVD collection.

Explanation:

To solve the given problem, we need to use a system of linear equations. The two variables we need to find are the number of movies (m) and the number of TV shows (t).

According to the problem, the total number of DVDs, which includes both movies and TV shows, is 40. This can be written as an equation: m + t = 40. Additionally, we are told that the number of movies is 4 less than three times the number of TV shows. This gives us a second equation: m = 3t - 4.

Now we have the following system of equations:

m + t = 40m = 3t - 4

We can solve this system by substitution. First, substitute the second equation into the first equation:

(3t - 4) + t = 404t - 4 = 404t = 44t = 11

Now that we have found the number of TV shows (t), we can calculate the number of movies (m):

m = 3t - 4m = 3(11) - 4m = 33 - 4m = 29

Therefore, Sam has 29 movies and 11 TV shows in his collection of 40 DVDs.

Luke has 1/5 of a package of dried apricots. He divides the dried apricots equally into 4 small bags. Luke gives one of the bags to a friend and keeps the other three bags for himself. What fraction of the original package of dried apricots did Luke keep for himself?

Answers

Answer:

3/80

Step-by-step explanation:

If one fifth of apricots are split into 4 parts, each bag has 1/5 * 1/4 of the original apricots

1/5 * 1/4 = 1/20

Luke keeps 3/4 of those so that's

3/4 * 1/20 = 3/80

A college bookstore marks up the price that it pays the publisher for a book by 40 %. If the selling price of a book is $ 81.00 comma how much did the bookstore pay for this​ book?

Answers

Answer:

32.40

Step-by-step explanation:

81 x 40% =48.60

81. -48.60 = 32.40

Answer:the college bookstore paid

$57.86 for the book.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the price that the college bookstore paid the publisher to get the book.

The college bookstore marks up the price by 40%. It means that the value of the mark up would be .40/100 × x = 0.4 × x = 0.4x

Therefore, the selling price of the book at the college bookstore would be

x + 0.4x = 1.4x

If the selling price of a book is $ 81.00, it means that

1.4x = 81

x = 81/1.4 = $57.86

A local dinner theater sells adult tickets for $105 each and children’s tickets for $60 each. For a certain show, the theater sells 84 tickets for a total of $7155. How many of each type of ticket were sold?

write a system of equations that models this problem and then show all the steps to solve your system of equations using the linear combination.

Answers

Answer:

The answer to your question is he sold 47 adult tickets and 37 children tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Adult ticket = a = $105

Children ticket = c = $60

Total number of tickets = 84

Total money earn = $7155

Equations

                              a + c      = 84     ------------ (I)

                        105a + 60c = 7155 -------------(II)

Multiply equation I by -60

                           -60a  - 60c = -5040

                          105a   + 60c = 7155

Simplify

                          45a               = 2115

                                           a = 2115 / 45

                                           a = 47 tickets

Substitute a in equation I

                          47 + c = 84

                                  c = 84 - 47

                                  c = 37 tickets

You can form linear equations from the given description then use that system to derive the solution.

The amount of each type of tickets sold are:

Children tickets sold = 37

Adult tickets sold = 47

How to form mathematical expression from the given description?

You can represent the unknown amounts by the use of variables. Follow whatever the description is and convert it one by one mathematically. For example if it is asked to increase some item by 4 , then you can add 4 in that item to increase it by 4. If something is for example, doubled, then you can multiply that thing by 2 and so on  methods can be used to convert description to mathematical expressions.

Using the above methodology to get the system of equation modelling the given situation

Let the amount of adult tickets sold be "a"

Let the amount of children tickets sold be "c"

Since the total amount of tickets sold is given as 84

Thus,

Total tickets = children tickets + adult tickets

84 = c + a

a + c = 84

since 1 adult ticket costs $105,

thus, "a" adult tickets cost [tex]105 \times a = 105a \text{\:\:(Written in short)}[/tex] (in dollars)

Similarly,

since 1 children ticket costs $60

"c" children tickets cost [tex]60c[/tex] (in dollars)

Since the price obtained by selling those tickets is $7155

thus,

total amount earned = amount earned by children tickets + amount earned by adult tickets

$7155 = $60c + $105a

Thus, we got the system of equations as:

[tex]a + c = 84\\105a + 60c = 7155[/tex]

Multiplying first equation with -105 to make a's coefficient equal and opposite to make the addition of them eliminate "a":

[tex]-105a -105c = -105 \times 84\\105a + 60c = 7155\\\\\text{Addding both equations}\\\\-45c = 7155 - 8820 = -1665\\\\c = \dfrac{1665}{45} = 37[/tex]

Putting this value in first equation, we get:

[tex]a + c = 84\\a + 37 = 84\\a = 84 - 37 = 47[/tex]

Thus,

The amount of each type of tickets sold are:

Children tickets sold = 37

Adult tickets sold = 47
