While reviewing for exams a teacher knows that the number of topics he can cover is directly proportional to the length of time he has to review. If he can cover 9 topics in a single 45-minute period, how many topics can he cover in a 1-hour period?

A) 5
B) 7
C) 10
D) 12

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is D

Step-by-step explanation: so you know that he can do 9 topics in 45 minutes. which is 1 topic every 5 minutes when you divide 45/9. if there is 60 minutes in an hour, and he does 1 topic every 5 minutes, he would do 12. hope this helps xd

Answer 2

A teacher can cover 12 topics in a 1-hour period. It is given that the number of topics he can cover is directly proportional to the length of the time he has to review. So, option D is correct.

How the variables are said to be directly proportional?

Two variables are said to be directly proportional if one variable increases/decreases with respect to the increase/decrease in the other variable. They are related to each other by proportionality.

A ∝ B (A and B are two variables)

⇒ A2/A1 = B2/B1

How the given variables are related?

The given variables are 'N - number of topics' and 'T - time period'.

It is given that they are directly proportional to each other.

So, we can write

N ∝ T

⇒ N2/N1 = T2/T1

Calculation:

Given that,

A teacher can cover 9 topics in a single 45-minute period.

So, N1 = 9 topics and T1 = 45 minutes

And T2 = 1 hour

We need to find N2 =?

Thus, from the above equation

N2/N1 = T2/T1

⇒ N2/9 = (1 hour)/45 minute

1 hour = 60 minutes

⇒ N2/9 = (60/45)

⇒ N2 = 9 × 4/3

N2 = 12 topics

So, he can cover 12 topics in 1 hour. Thus, option D is correct.

The ratio of money in Obi's wallet to Rudy's wallet one day was 5:2. Obi spent ?20 that day. Obi now had ?8 less than Rudy. How much did they have initially altogether?

Answers

Answer:

  Altogether, they had ?28

Step-by-step explanation:

Had Obi spent only ?12, they would have been even. Thus ?12 is the same as 5-2 = 3 "ratio units". So, each "ratio unit" is worth ?12/3 = ?4.

Then Obi started the day with 5·4 = 20, and Obi started the day with 2·4 = 8. Obi ended with 0, which is 8 less than Rudy.

Altogether, they started with 20 + 8 = 28 of whatever a ? is.

Answer:

Money they have  initially altogether = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of money in Obi's wallet to Rudy's wallet one day was 5:2.

Money Obi has = 5 r

Money Rudy has = 2 r

Obi spent 20 that day and bi now had 8 less than Rudy

               5r -20 = 2r - 8

               3r = 12

                 r = 4

Initial money they have

                Obi = 5r = 5 x 4 = 20

                 Rudy = 2 x 4 = 8

Altogether they have 20+8 = 28

Money they have  initially altogether = 28

The parabola opens: y=√x-4 (principal square root) up down right left

Answers

Answer:

right towards positive x axis

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the orientation of the parabolas we can follow following steps.

1. if in the equation x is squared , the parabola opens up. Also if its coefficient is negative it opens down.

2. If y is squared , the parabola opens right , and its coefficient is negative , it opens left

but before that we have to convert our function in standard form of the parabola. Our equation is

[tex]y=\sqrt{x-4}[/tex]

hence we square on both sides

[tex]y^2=x-4[/tex]

which is now into one of the standard form of a parabola. here y is squared and its coefficient is not negative hence it opens towards right.

−4x + 8y = 16

Express your answer as a fraction in simplest form.

Answers

Answer:

112/125

Step-by-step explanation:

If we know all 25 are in at least one foreign language class then we can assume that exactly 4 of the 18 kids in French only take French to add up to 25 and this means that the 14 left take both classes. Now we can create three fractions for each case which are 7/25 (Spanish only) 4/25 (French only) and 14/25 (Both) and we can know say that if he goes down the route of getting a Spanish only as his first he needs one of the 18 other students the chances of this happening are 7/25 * 18/25 = 126/625 the same thing is done with the French only and we get 4/25 * 21/25 = 84/625 and then we have the possibility of just getting a student that does both which is 14/25 or 350/625. now we add them all together to get 560/625 which is simplified to 112/125.

Use the Rational Zeros Theorem to write a list of all possible rational zeros of the function. f(x) = 2x3 + 8x2 + 7x - 8

Answers

Answer:

The list is -1,1,-2,2,-4,4,-8,8,-1/2,1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Possible rational zeros are the constant factors/leading coefficient factors

So factors of -8:  -1,1,-2,2,-4,4,-8,8

So factors of 2:  -1,1,-2,2

Now put every number in the first list over every number in the second list:

The possible rational zeros are:

-1/1=-1

1/1=1

-2/1=-2

2/1=2

-4/1=-4

4/1=4

-8/1=-8

8/1=8

-1/2

1/2

I didn't write any number twice.... like -8/2 is just -4 which I already wrote

The list is -1,1,-2,2,-4,4,-8,8,-1/2,1/2

Answer:

±1/2, ±1, ±2, ±4 and ±8

Step-by-step explanation:

The Rational Zeros Theorem is defined as when a polynomial has all coefficients  integer, then any rational zeroes of the polynomial have to be in the form ±p/q, where q is the coefficient of the highest power of the variable and p is declared  as the constant term.

Furthermore, a rational  "zero" is for a polynomial.  when the polynomial is p(x), a "zero" is a value of x when  p(x) = 0

Secondly, we have to know  what a "rational zero" is.  A "rational zero" is a zero that its number is rational.  Some polynomials  have some rational zeros and some irrational zeros, and some only have zeros that are rational numbers.

By applying this theorem,  all  possible factors of the constant term must be considered . In this example they are 1, 2, 4, and 8.  After that Then you consider all possible factors of the coefficient of the highest power of the variable. we take the x³ term, whose coefficient is 2. the  the possible factors of 2 are 1 and 2.

Therefore, the possible list of rational zeroes are given below

 ±1/1 = ±1

±1/2

±2/1 = ±2

±2/2 = ±1

±4/1 = ±4

±4/2 = ±2

±8/1 = ±8

±8/2 = ±4

By removing the duplicates, we arrive at the following,

±1/2, ±1, ±2, ±4 and ±8

An air conditioning unit promises to have a cooling capacity of 6,000 British thermal units (Btu). The unit has a maximum variance of y Btu. If x is the air conditioning unit’s actual capacity, which graph could be used to determine variance levels that would cause a unit to be rejected because of its cooling capacity?

Answers

Answer:

ITS 100% A

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Option 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let as consider x be the  air conditioning unit's actual capacity and y is the maximum variance in British thermal units (Btu).

It is given that an air conditioning unit promises to have a cooling capacity of 6,000 British thermal units (Btu).

We need to find the graph that could be used to determine the variance levels that would cause a unit to be rejected because of its cooling capacity.

It means the maximum variance is less than or equal to absolute difference of actual capacity and 6,000.

[tex]y\leq |x-6000|[/tex]

The related equation of this inequality is

[tex]y=|x-6000|[/tex]

It is a V-shaped curve with vertex (6000,0) and y-intercept (0,6000).

The related curve is a solid V-shaped curve because the points on curve included in the solution set.

The shaded region lie below the curve because the sign of inequality is ≤.

Therefore the correct option is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given graph represents the sales of sweaters and gloves at her store for the past ten winter weeks.

If the scatter points lie near to a straight line and the slope of the line is positive, then there is a strong positive linear correlation between two variables.

r=1 means strong positive correlation.

r=0 means no correlation.

r=-1 means strong negative correlation.

From the figure it is clear that the scatter points lie near to a straight line and the slope of the line is positive. So, there is a positive linear correlation between the sales of sweaters and gloves.
