1. In a class of 24, 3 students were absent, What fraction of class is present

2. Karen taped a television show that lasted 1h 30mins. On the same tape she recorded another 2 shows that were 5/6h each. What time was still left on the 4h tape.

3. Steve ordered 12 lengths of timber, each 6m long. He cut 6 lengths into 1 1/2m pieces and the other 6 lengths into 3/4 pieces A. How many pieces together is this? B. Was there any waste?

Answers

Answer 1

Problem 1

Answer:  7/8 of the class is present

Reason:

24 people total with 3 absent. So 24-3 = 21 are present

21/24 = (7*3)/(8*3) = 7/8

==========================================================

Problem 2

Answer:  50 minutes left on the tape.

Work Shown:

1 hour = 60 min

(5/6)*(1 hour) = (5/6)*(60 min)

5/6 of an hour = 50 min

1 hr + 30 min = 60 min + 30 min = 90 min

The first show is 90 minutes. Add on two more shows that are 50 min each to get 90+50+50 = 190 minutes used up

4 hours = 4*60 = 240 min

240 - 190 = 50 min

There are 50 minutes left on the tape.

==========================================================

Problem 3

Answer:  72 pieces; not enough info to calculate the waste

Explanation:

1 1/2 = 1 + 1/2 = 1 + 0.5 = 1.5

6/(1.5) = 4

Each 6 meter board is cut into 4 equal pieces each 1.5 meters long

There are 6 boards this applies to which means so far that's 6*4 = 24 pieces

Now to the other 6 boards.

3/4 = 0.75

6/(0.75) = 8

Each of the other 6 boards are cut into 8 equal pieces of 0.75 meters each

That's another 6*8 = 48 pieces

In total there are 24+48 = 72 pieces

When cutting into wood, there always is a small sliver that is discarded. While small, these slivers do add up. So yes there is some waste. Unfortunately, we don't have enough info to calculate. We would need to know the width of the saw blade.

Step-by-step explanation:

cos(∠BCD) = 8/14

________

• In the right triangle ABC :

cos(∠BCA) = 14/(8+y)

________

Since ∠BCD and ∠BCA are the same one

then

cos(∠BCD) = cos(∠BCA)

Therefore

[tex]\frac{8}{14} =\frac{14}{y+8}[/tex]

[tex]\Longleftrightarrow 8(y+8)=14^2[/tex]

Cindy throws a rock in the air. The rock's height, y, in feet, with respect to time, x, in seconds can be modeled by the function y=-2x^2+10x+28. When does the rock hit the ground in seconds

My work:
y=-2x^2+10x+28
0= -2(x^2-5x-14) (While knowing that the zero is supposed to be there, I don't understand why 0= -2(x^2-5x-14) )
(x-7)(x+2)
(-7,+2)
I put 2 as the answer, but when checking it was 7?

What part did I do wrong?

Answers

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

You were correct in setting the equation equal to 0 because the problem is asking for when the rock hits the ground and in this problem, you may  assume that the ground is y=0, unless the problem says otherwise.

Ok so where you went wrong is that when you factored out and got

(x-7)(x+2), which is correct, you forgot to set these equal to zero (because your actual equation is set to zero). So you should have

x-7 = 0

and

x+2 = 0

and this gives the actual answers +7 and -2. And since time cant be negative its 7 seconds.

This was a silly mistake and happens a lot more often than you think, so I wouldn't worry too much but make sure you practice more, better to lose points on harder questions than easy ones.

Good luck with your exam !

Answer:

7 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

[tex]y=-2x^2+10x+28[/tex]

where:

y = height above the ground (in feet)x = time (in seconds)

To find the time when the rock hits the ground, set the equation to zero and solve for x.

First, simplify by factoring out the common term  -2:

[tex]\implies -2(x^2-5x-14)=0[/tex]

Divide both sides by -2:

[tex]\implies x^2-5x-14=0[/tex]

To factor a quadratic in the form [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex], find two numbers that multiply to ac and sum to b.

[tex]\implies ac=1 \cdot -14=-14[/tex]

[tex]\implies b=-5[/tex]

Therefore, the two numbers that multiply to -14 and sum to -5 are: -7 and 2

Rewrite b as the sum of these two numbers:

[tex]\implies x^2-7x+2x-14=0[/tex]

Factorize the first two terms and the last two terms separately:

[tex]\implies x(x-7)+2(x-7)=0[/tex]

Factor out the common term (x - 7):

[tex]\implies (x+2)(x-7)=0[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]\implies x+2=0 \implies x=-2[/tex]

[tex]\implies x-7=0 \implies x=7[/tex]

As time cannot be negative, the rock hits the ground in 7 seconds.

Jarred sells DVDs. His inventory shows that he has a total of 3,500 DVDs. He has 2,342 more contemporary titles than classic titles. Let x represent the number of contemporary titles and y represent the number of classic titles. The system of equations models the given information for both types of DVDs.

x + y = 3,500

x – y = 2,342

Answers

Answer: x = 2921, y = 579

Step-by-Step Explanation:

I am assuming that we just have to Solve for ‘x’ and ‘y’.

‘x’ = No. Of Contemporary Titles
‘y’ = No. Of Classic Titles

=> x + y = 3500 (Eq. 1)
=> x - y = 2342 (Eq. 2)

Adding Eq. 1 and Eq. 2, we get :-

2x = 3500 + 2342
2x = 5842
x = 5842/2
=> x = 2921

Therefore, x = 2921

Substitute value of ‘x’ in Eq. 1 :-

x + y = 3500
(2921) + y = 3500
y = 3500 - 2921
=> y = 579

Therefore, y = 579

Hence,
No. Of Contemporary Titles = 2921
No. Of Classic Titles = 579

Which equation would have real zero(s) corresponding to the x-intercept(s) of the graph below?

Answers

Answer:

the first one listed (y = -[tex]2^{x}[/tex] + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

a 0 at an x-intercept means that when plugging in that number, you get a 0 as a y-value.

So, the easiest method to use is to plug x=2 into each equation listed, because we can see that (2,0) is a point on this graph

if y= -[tex]2^x\\[/tex] + 4

y = -2² + 4

y = -4 + 4

y = 0

This means that this graph has corresponding real zero(s) to the function    y= [tex]-2^x[/tex] + 4

3x+13=3(x+6)+1

Answers

Answer:

No Solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

original equation

3x+13 = 3(x+6)+1

distribute 3

3x+13 = 3x+18+1

simplify

3x+13 = 3x+19

since the slope is the same for both equations and the y-intercept is different the two equations are parallel meaning they will never intersect so there are no solutions.

Answer:

No solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 13 = 3 (x + 6) + 1

3x + 13 = 3x + 18 + 1

3x + 13 = 3x + 19

3x + 13 = 3x + 19 meaning no solution since they aren't equivalent to each other

A car drives at a speed of 90 km/h for 2 hours and 20 minutes
How far does the car drive?

Answers

Answer:

210km

Step-by-step explanation:

2hours = 180km

2hours = 120minutes

40mins =180/3

           =60km

20mins=60/2

            =30km

2h and 20mins =30+180

                          =210km

Answer:

210kms

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of the car per hour = 90km/h

or, speed of the car per minute = 90/60kms=1.5km/minute

Now,

car drives for 2hours and 20 minutes

or, (2*60 +20) minutes= 140minutes

Distance of the car drive= minutes travelled* speed per minute

= 140*1.5kms

=210kms

What is the standard form of 0.00849​

Answers

Answer:

8.49 × 10⁻³

Explanation:

Standard form of a number: A. × 10ᵇ

(where 'A' is the number, b is the exponent over 10)

For the number "0.00849​", move the decimal point 3 places right so the exponent of 10 is -3.

Standard form: 8.49 × 10⁻³

Other examples of standard/scientific forms are:   standard forms

i) 0.043, move the decimal point 2 places right = 4.3 × 10⁻²

ii) 4030, move the decimal point 3 places left = 4.03 × 10³

Answer:

when a number is given in that manner you have to take that decimal between two whole numbers.

and that is the main reason why I took that decimal from 0.0 to 8.49 and since it went towards the right my answer is going to be 8.49 *10 raised to negative 3.

Five sisters bought a present for their mother. They received a 10% discount on the original price of the gift. After the discount was taken, each sister paid $5.40. What was the original price of the gift?

I need an answer soon! Pleasle

Answers

Answer:

$30 is the original price.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price of the gift.  The sisters got a 10% discount, so the price paid by them is 0.90x.

The five sisters each paid $5.40, so the total they paid was:

5*($5.40) = $27.

This is equal to the 0.90x:  

0.90x = $27

x = $27/0.90

x = $30
