A pinic table is 1 meter across. An ant is 1 centimeter in length. How many ants of the same length would fit end-to-end across the length of the pinic table

Answers

100 ants, because 100 centimeters make up one meter.
Final answer:

To find out how many ants of the same length would fit end-to-end across the length of the picnic table, divide the length of the table by the length of the ant.

Explanation:

To find out how many ants of the same length would fit end-to-end across the length of the picnic table, we need to convert the length of the table and the length of the ant to the same unit. Since the table is 1 meter across and the ant is 1 centimeter in length, we need to convert centimeters to meters.

There are 100 centimeters in 1 meter, so the ant is 1/100 = 0.01 meters in length. Now, we can determine how many ants would fit across the length of the table by dividing the length of the table by the length of the ant: 1 meter / 0.01 meters = 100 ants.

Compare and contrast the absolute value of a real number to that of a complex number

Answers

The absolute value of a real number is a positive value of the number. Which means that the absolute value is the distance from zero of the number line. However, that of the complex numbers is the distance from the origin to the point in a complex plane,

Consider a real number in two dimensional plane that X axis and Y axis having ordered pair : P(x,y) or (3,4).

To find it's absolute value we will find it's Distance from origin.

As Coordinate of Origin = (0,0)

Absolute Value of OP = [tex]\left | OP \right |[/tex]

     =  [tex]\sqrt{(0-x)^2+(0-y)^2}=\sqrt {x^2+y^2}[/tex]

    If the point is Q(3,4)

[tex]\left | OQ \right |=\sqrt{3^2+4^2}=\sqrt{5^2}=5[/tex]

In case of a complex number :

Z = a + bi , we consider two axes Real Axis and Imaginary Axis.

We represent Z that is (a,b) in the same way that we represent point in two dimensional plane.

To find it's absolute value , we will find it's distance from origin.

Which answer does NOT correctly describe the graph of y = 5x + 12?

The answer choices are 1. The Line Has A Constant Rate Of Change 2. The Graph Contains The Point (5, 12) 3. The Line Crosses The y-axis 12 Units Above The Origin 4. The Slope Of The Line Can be written as 5/1

Answers

Answer

2. The Graph Contains The Point (5, 12)

Explanation

Remember that in a linear function of the form [tex]y=mx+b[/tex], [tex]m[/tex] is the slope/rate of change of the line and [tex]b[/tex] is the y-intercept.

From our equation we can infer that [tex]b=12[/tex], so the y-intercept of our graph is 12 units above the origin on the point (0, 12). Therefore, choice 2 correctly describe the graph of y = 5x + 12

We can also infer that [tex]m=5[/tex], so the slope of our line is 5, which is constant, so our line has a constant rate of change. Also, since every integer can be written as a fraction with denominator 1, we can write our slope as [tex]m=\frac{5}{1}[/tex]. Therefore, choices 1 and 2 correctly describe the graph of y = 5x + 12.

Now, remember that any point on the plane has coordinates [tex](x,y)[/tex], so, to check if a point is on a line, we just need to replace the [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]y[/tex] values in the line equation and check if the equation holds. Our point is (5, 12), so x = 5 and y = 12. Lets replace the values in our line:

[tex]y=5x+12[/tex]

[tex]12=5(5)+12[/tex]

[tex]12=25+12[/tex]

[tex]12\neq 37[/tex]

Since the equation equation doesn't hold (12 is not equal 37), we can conclude that the graph doesn't contain the point (5, 12). Therefore, choice 2 does NOT correctly describe the graph y = 5x +12.


Answer:

The graph contains the point (5,12)

300-297+294-291+288-285+...+6-3

Answers

Final answer:

The sum of the alternating subtraction and addition sequence 300-297+294-291+...+6-3 can be calculated by pairing the numbers and determining the partial sums, which consistently equal 3. With 49 complete sets of these operations within the range given, the total sum is 147.

Explanation:

The sequence provided is a series of alternating subtractions and additions of integers in a specific pattern. To determine the sum of such a sequence, we can pair the numbers in such a way that each subtractive pair (e.g., 300-297) is combined with its subsequent additive pair (e.g., 294). This will result in a series of partial sums which are consistently 3 (e.g., 300-297+294 equals 297). As the pattern continues, each group of four numbers adds up to 3.

Since all groups add up to 3, and we know that each set of two operations (a subtraction followed by an addition) gives us 3, we need to find out how many such sets there are. Given that our numbering starts with 300 and ends with 3 (decreasing by 3 every time), we can see there are 99 numbers in the sequence (since (300 - 3) / 3 + 1 = 99). And because every four numbers make up one set, there would be 99 / 2 = 49.5 sets. We only consider the entire sets, which would be 49 in total, ignoring the last number (3) that does not form a complete set.

Therefore, multiplying 49 sets by 3 gives us the total sum of the pattern, which would be 147. It is important to double-check calculations to ensure accuracy when dealing with sequences and series.

To fit between two windows, the width of a bookshelf must be no greater than feet. Mrs. Aguilar purchases a bookshelf that is 77 inches wide. Which statement describes the relationship between the width of the bookshelf and the distance between the windows?

Answers

Given:
width of bookshelf no greater than 6 1/2 feet
purchased bookshelf that is 77 inches wide

We need to find the equivalent value in feet of the purchased bookshelf.

1 foot is equal to 12 inches

77 inches * 1 foot/12 inches = 77 ft/12 = 6 5/6 ft

Or we can convert the feet into inches:

6 1/2 feet convert to improper fraction.

((6*2)+1)/2 = 13/2 feet

13/2 ft * 12 inches/1ft = (13 * 12)/2 = 156/2 = 78 inches

Compare the maximum width of 78 inches to the actual width of 77 inches. 

The purchased bookshelf can fit between two windows.

The inverse of f does NOT exist. The reason why is because the function fails the horizontal line test. Recall that the horizontal line test is a test where you try to see if you can pass a single horizontal line through more than one point on the function curve. If you can get the horizontal line to pass through more than one point, then it fails the test. It's very similar to the vertical line test.

Explain how to draw a trend line for a scatterplot using the divide-center of data method.

Answers

Before you can draw a trend line in your data, you should have a given data at hand. And then draw the trend line or line of best fit.

1. Plot your data in a graphing paper or excel.
2. Make sure that your plotted data has a solid mark to indicate the points in the graph.
3. Divide your data points by labeling x at the center, at the farthest part of your line (left or right diagonally).
4. If you feel that the data are now finely divided, then construct a line base on the x marks you're placing
5. Then you will notice how far or near your date points are by simply looking at the points near the constructed line that you created.

Answer:

Sample Answer: To draw a trend line with the divide-center method, first exclude any outliers. Draw a vertical line to divide the data cluster into two groups with approximately the same number of points. Find the center of each group and connect those centers to form the trend line.

Answers

Refer to the diagram shown below.

Part 1
Let the distance AC = 4d and distance BC = 7d so that C splits Ab in a 4:7 ratio.
Then
(12 - x)/(x - 4) = 7/4
Cross multiply.
7x - 28 = 48 - 4x
11x = 76
x = 6.909
Similarly,
(9 - y)/(y - 5) = 7/4
7y - 35 = 36 - 4y
11y = 71
y = 6.454

Answer:
The coordinates of C are (6.909, 6.454).

Part 2
Let AD = 2d and BD = 5d so that D s located 2/5 from A to B.
Then
(x - 3)/(12 - x) = 2/3
Cross multiply.
3x - 9 = 24 - 2x
5x = 33
x =  6.6
Similarly,
(y - 5)/(9 - y) = 2/3
3y - 15 = 18 - 2y
5y = 33
y = 6.6

Answer:

mr lippman bought a dryer for 160 bucks and sold it for 240 bucks. if overhead expenses were 20% of the selling price, what was the rate of profit on the selling price?

Answers

First calculate the amount of overhead expenses. The selling price was $240. To find 20% of 240, multiply 240 by 0.20, which equals 48. From that, we found that the overhead expenses were $48. To find the rate of profit, take the selling price and subtract all expenses. We know that Mr Lippman's selling price was $240, he spent $160 to buy the dryer, and he had $48 worth of overhead expenses. 240 - 160 - 48 = 32. Therefore, the profit was $32. To find the rate of profit, divide the profit by the total expenses. 32 / (240 + 160) = 0.08. Therefore, the rate of profit was 8%.
