Answers

Answer 1
5*3.75=18.75 18.75÷1.5 equals 12 bags with 0.75 pounds of seed left.
Answer 2

Answer:

We bought five 3 3/4 pound bags of bird seed.

A :

Total weight is = [tex]3\times(\frac{3}{4} )=\frac{9}{4}[/tex] pounds of bird seed.

In mixed fraction it is : [tex]2\frac{1}{4}[/tex] pounds

B :

As given, each smaller bag contains 1 1/2 pounds, so 9/4 pounds can make:

=[tex]\frac{\frac{9}{4}}{\frac{3}{2}}[/tex]= 18/12 = 3/2 bags

C :

We can make 1 full bag and will have left out enough for half of another bag. Half of a 3/2 pound is :

[tex]1/2(3/2)[/tex] = 3/4 of a pound.

Answers

I believe the answer is g(x) = -4|x| , because the negative changes the direction of the slope.

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

[tex]f(x)=4|x|[/tex]

It is given that the graph of g(x) is obtained by reflecting the graph of f(x)=4|x| over the x-axis.

If a figure reflected across x-axis, then the rule of reflection is

[tex](x,y)\rightarrow (x,-y)[/tex]

Using the above rule, if the given function reflected across x-axis, then g(x)=-f(x).

[tex]g(x)=-(4|x|)[/tex]

[tex]g(x)=-4|x|[/tex]

The equation g(x)=-4|x| describes g(x).

Therefore, the correct option is D.

(round your answer to 4 decimal places.) probability (c) what is the probability that at least one fails? (round your answer to 4 decimal places.) probability referencesebook & resources

Answers

The probability that both alternators fail is approximately 0.0004, the probability that neither fails is approximately 0.9612, and the probability that at least one fails is approximately 0.0388, all rounded to four decimal places.

(a) The probability that both Alternator will fail is calculated by multiplying the probabilities of each failing:
P(Both Fail) = P(Alternator 1 Fails) x P(Alternator 2 Fails) = 0.019 x 0.019 ≈ 0.000361 = 0.0004 (rounded to four decimal places).

(b) The probability that an alternator does not fail is 1 minus the probability that it fails.
P(Neither Fail) = (1 - P(Alternator Fails))^2 = (1 - 0.019)^2 ≈ 0.9612 (rounded to four decimal places).

(c) To find the probability of at least one alternator failing, we subtract the probability of neither failing from 1:
P(At Least One Fails) = 1 - P(Neither Fail) = 1 - 0.9612 ≈ 0.0388 (rounded to four decimal places)

The function h(t) = –16t2 + 96t + 6 represents an object projected into the air from a cannon. The maximum height reached by the object is 150 feet.

If you've started pre-calculus, then you know that the derivative of  h(t)

The derivative is            h'(t) = -32 t  +  96 .

At the maximum ...        h'(t) = 0

                                       32 t = 96 sec

                                           t  =  3 sec . 
___________________________________________

If you haven't had any calculus yet, then you don't know how to
take a derivative, and you don't know what it's good for anyway.

In that case, the question GIVES you the maximum height.
Just write it in place of  h(t), then solve the quadratic equation
and find out what  't'  must be at that height.

                                       150 ft = -16 t²  +  96  t  +  6 

Subtract 150ft from each side:    -16t²  +  96t  -  144  =  0 .

Before you attack that, you can divide each side by  -16,
making it a lot easier to handle:

                                                         t²  -  6t  +  9  =  0

I'm sure you can run with that equation now and solve it.    
The solution is the time after launch when the object reaches 150 ft.

Find the area of the surface. the part of the cylinder y^2+z^2=9 that lies above the rectangle with vertices (0,0),(4,0),(0,2), and (4,2)

Answers

Final answer:

To find the area of the surface above the given rectangle, we need to determine the intersection of the cylinder with the plane of the rectangle. The surface area above the rectangle is equal to the area of the rectangle multiplied by the range of the z-coordinate.

Explanation:

To find the area of the surface that lies above the given rectangle, we need to determine the intersection of the cylinder with the plane of the rectangle. The equation of the cylinder is y^2+z^2=9, and the vertices of the rectangle are (0,0), (4,0), (0,2), and (4,2). At the x=0 and x=4 cross sections, we can see that the y-coordinate ranges from 0 to 2 and the z-coordinate ranges from -3 to 3. Therefore, the surface area above the rectangle is equal to the area of the rectangle multiplied by the range of the z-coordinate.

The area of the rectangle is (4-0)(2-0) = 8 square units. The range of the z-coordinate is -3 to 3, so the surface area above the rectangle is 8 * (3 - (-3)) = 48 square units.

x+2y=8

Answers

the answer are x= 5 and y = 3/2
So to solve for x and y you need to add the two equations together, and to do this when you add them either the x or the y need to cross out.

For this equation we’re going to multiply the bottom equation by 2 so that the y’s will cancel out when we ad the equations together so that we can solve for x

5x-4y=19
2(x+2y=8)

Distribute the 2

5x-4y=19
2x+4y=16

Next add the two equations together

7x=35

As you can see the y was cancelled out. Now divide each side by 7 to solve for x

x=5

Now take this answer and plug it back into either equation to solve for y. I am going to plug it into the second equation, but you can choose either

b.[0.699, 0.931]
c.[0.849, 0.854]
d.[0.799, 0.781]
e.[0.719, 0.981] f) none of the above

Answers

Final answer:

Using the formula for the confidence interval of a proportion, and after calculating standard error and margin of error, the 98% confidence interval for the proportion of 8th graders involved in after school activities is [0.799, 0.981]. Therefore, option a is correct.

Explanation:

To find the 98% confidence interval for the proportion of 8th graders involved in some type of after school activity, we can use the formula for the confidence interval of a proportion:

CI = ± z * √((p*(1-p))/n), where p is the sample proportion, n is the sample size, and z is the z-score corresponding to the confidence level.

In this case, we have p = 0.89 (since 89% of the sample is involved in after school activities), n = 64, and for a 98% confidence interval, the z-score (from z-tables or statistical software) is approximately 2.33.

First, let's calculate the standard error (SE): SE = √((0.89*(1-0.89))/64) = √((0.89*0.11)/64) = √(0.0989/64) = 0.0392.

Next, calculate the margin of error (ME): ME = z * SE = 2.33 * 0.0392 = 0.09136.

Now we can calculate the confidence interval: the lower limit is p - ME = 0.89 - 0.09136 = 0.79864 and the upper limit is p + ME = 0.89 + 0.09136 = 0.98136.

After rounding to three decimal places, the 98% confidence interval for the proportion is [0.799, 0.981]. Hence, option a is correct.

Answers

Final answer:

A unit test for the function addInventory() can be written in JavaScript using Jest. The test checks that the quantity of red sweaters increases correctly after calling addInventory(). If the test fails, an error message will be shown.

Explanation:

Based on the information given, you can create a unit test in many programming languages. Here we are going to illustrate with JavaScript and use the Jest testing framework.

Firstly, let's name the unit test file as redSweater.test.js. In this file, we call the addInventory() of the redSweater object with sweaterShipment as parameter.  Note that addInventory() is a method that increases the quantity of red sweaters in inventory by a certain amount provided by sweaterShipment.

Here is a sample unit test for your needs:

const redSweater = require('./redSweater'); // path to your redSweater.js file

test('addInventory() unit test', () => {

let initialQty = 10;

redSweater.qty = initialQty;

let shipmentQty = 50;

redSweater.addInventory(shipmentQty);

expect(redSweater.qty).toBe(initialQty + shipmentQty);

});

This script tests that the quantity of red sweaters increases correctly after calling the addInventory() method. If the quantity is not correct after the method call, the test will fail and show an error message.

675 litres 80 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The total amount of oil in the two tanks at the start is ...

  total oil = n + (n +150) + 0 = 2n+150 . . . . litres

The amount of oil in tank C at the end is 1/3 this amount, or

  oil in tank C = (total oil)/3 = (2n+150)/3 . . . . litres

The amount pumped into tank C was 500 litres, so we have ...

  (2n +150)/3 = 500

  2n +150 = 1500 . . . . . . multiply by 3

  2n = 1350 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 150

  1350/2 = n = 675 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of n

___

2. Let x represent the amount remaining in container A. Then 4x is the amount in tank B. Before the transfer, the amount in each container was the same, so ...

  x +120 = 4x -120 . . . . . A had 120 more than remains; B had 120 less

  240 = 3x . . . . . . . . add 120-x

Trina's employer purchased a health insurance plan that cost $550 per month Trina pays $85 toward the plan each month what is the annual value of the employer's contribution

Answers

$ 5580.00 this isn't the correct answer from apex

The annual value of the employer's contribution towards Trina's health insurance plan is $5,580.

Here, we have to find the annual value of the employer's contribution, we need to determine how much the employer pays towards the health insurance plan in one month.

Trina's employer purchased a health insurance plan that costs $550 per month, and Trina pays $85 toward the plan each month.

Therefore, the employer's contribution is the difference between the total cost of the plan and what Trina pays:

Employer's contribution = Total cost of the plan - Trina's contribution

Employer's contribution = $550 - $85

Employer's contribution = $465 per month

Now, to find the annual value of the employer's contribution, we multiply the monthly contribution by 12 (since there are 12 months in a year):

Annual employer's contribution = $465 * 12

Annual employer's contribution = $5,580

So, the annual value of the employer's contribution towards Trina's health insurance plan is $5,580.

Of all the rectangles with a perimeter of 168 feet, find the dimension of the one with the largest area

Answers

The rectangle with the largest area with a given perimeter will be a square - so the sides will be equal. So we need to find length of side, L, such that 4*L=168. L = 168/4 L=42. So the dimensions of the rectangle that maximizes the area with a perimiter of 168 feet are: 42 feet by 24 feet.

Final answer:

The largest area for a rectangle with a fixed perimeter of 168 feet is achieved by a square, and the dimensions of that square are 42 feet by 42 feet.

Explanation:

To find the dimensions of a rectangle with the largest area given a fixed perimeter, we need to understand that the rectangle with the largest area for a given perimeter is a square.

In this problem, the perimeter is 168 feet, which can be expressed by the formula 2l + 2w = 168, where l is the length and w is the width of the rectangle. Knowing that a square has all four sides equal, we simply divide the perimeter by 4 to get the side length, which gives us l = w = 168/4 = 42 feet.

Therefore, the dimensions of the rectangle with the largest area, which in this case is a square, are 42 feet by 42 feet.

Robert can swim the first 50 meters of a race in 1 minute. Then he slows down by 12 seconds for each of the next 50 meters of a race. How long will it take Robert to swim a 400 meter race?

Answers

Final answer:

It takes Robert 13 minutes and 36 seconds to complete a 400 meter swimming race when he swims the first 50 meters in 1 minute and slows down by 12 seconds for each subsequent 50 meters.

Explanation:

In this mathematical problem, Robert swims the first 50 meters in 1 minute. He slows down by 12 seconds for each subsequent 50 meters of the race. The total distance Robert needs to swim is 400 meters. The 400 meters is split into eight 50 meter increments.

For the first increment, it takes Robert 1 minute (or 60 seconds). For the next seven increments, Robert swims each in 12 seconds slower than the previous increment.

Therefore, the total time in seconds for Robert to complete the 400 meters swimming race is:

60 + 72 + 84 + 96 + 108 + 120 + 132 + 144 = 816 seconds

This is equivalent to 13 minutes and 36 seconds.

So x(t) = 143t x'(t) = 143 y(t) = -16t^2 + 5t + 5 y'(t) = -32t + 5 So at 0.423 seconds, the respective velocities will be x'(0.423) = 143 y'(0.423) = -32 * 0.423 + 5 = -13.536 + 5 = -8.536 And the speed will be sqrt(143^2 + (-8.536)^2) = sqrt(20449 + 72.8633) = sqrt(20521.86) = 143.2545 ft/s Now convert from ft/s to mile/hour 143.2545 ft/s * 3600 s/hour / 5280 = 97.67 mile/hour = 97.67 mph

[tex]y'(t)= -32t+5[/tex]   ---- (3)

Now, put the value of x(t) in equation (1).

60.5 = 143t

t = 0.423 sec

Now, put the value of t in equation (3).

[tex]y'(t) = -32(0.423)+5=-8.536[/tex]

Now, [tex]s(t) = \sqrt{(x'(t))^2+(y'(t))^2}[/tex]

[tex]s(t)=\sqrt{143^2+(-8.536)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\rm s(t)=\sqrt{20521.8633} = 143.2545\;ft/sec[/tex]

[tex]\rm s(t) = 97.67 mph[/tex]

Therefore, the speed of the baseball when it passes over the home plate is 97.67 mph.

Find three distinct fractions between -7/8 and -4/5

Answers

first off,  you'd want to put both fractions with the same denominator, and we simply do so by multiplying each other by the other's denominator.

[tex]\bf -\cfrac{7\cdot 5}{8\cdot 5}\implies -\cfrac{35}{40}\qquad \qquad\qquad \qquad -\cfrac{4\cdot 8}{5\cdot 8}\implies -\cfrac{32}{40} \\\\\\ \textit{since there's no enough room for three fractions there,}\\\\ \textit{let's multiply each by 2, to make room for three fractions}[/tex]

[tex]\bf -\cfrac{35\cdot 2}{40\cdot 2}\implies -\cfrac{70}{80}\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad -\cfrac{32\cdot 2}{4\cdot 20}\implies -\cfrac{64}{80} \\\\\\ \boxed{-\cfrac{70}{80}}\qquad\qquad -\cfrac{67}{80}\qquad -\cfrac{66}{80}\qquad -\cfrac{65}{80}\qquad\qquad \boxed{-\cfrac{64}{80}}[/tex]

Salespeople make an average of $1,000 per week. There are nine salespeople. What would the ninth person need to earn for the mean to be $1,000 if the other eight salespeople earned $550, $600, $600, $800, $950, $950, $1,000, and $1,100?

Answers

all numbers equal 6550
(6550+x)/9=1000
6550+x=9000
x=2450
Final answer:

To get an average earnings of $1,000 for all nine salespeople, the ninth salesperson needs to earn $2,450.

Explanation:

The subject of this question is mathematics, specifically statistics, and it involves the concept of 'mean' or 'average'. To find out what the ninth person needs to earn to keep the average earn of $1,000, we first need to calculate the total earnings of all nine people. Since the average earnings of a salesperson is $1,000, we multiply $1,000 by 9, which gives us $9,000. Then we need to subtract the sum of the earnings of the first eight salespeople from $9,000 to find out the earnings of the ninth person.  

Here is the breakdown with the given figures:

The sum of the earnings of the first eight salespeople is: $550 + $600 + $600 + $800 + $950 + $950 + $1,000 + $1,100 = $6,550Subtract this from the total ($9,000): $9,000 - $6,550 = $2,450

So, the ninth person would need to earn $2,450 for the average earnings to remain at $1,000.

THe cost of a hamburger is $2.50. Each additional hamburger cost $2.00. Sully wrote this explicit rule to explain the sequence of costs: f(n) = 2 + 2.5(n-1). Using the rule, he found the cost of 12 hamburgers to be 29.50. Is this number correct?

Answers

Answer:

Yes, the number is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of a hamburger is $2.50.

Each additional hamburger cost $2.00.

Sully wrote this explicit rule to explain the sequence of costs:

[tex]f(n) = 2+2.5(n-1)[/tex]

Using the rule, he found the cost of 12 hamburgers to be 29.50.

Lets check by putting n = 12.

[tex]f(12) = 2+2.5(12-1)[/tex]

= [tex]2+2.5(11)[/tex]

=  [tex]2+27.5 [/tex]

= $29.50

So, yes Sully is correct.
