24 swimmers are swimming in the pool. 9 of them are female. What fraction of swimmers are male?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

15/24 or 5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Well 9 are female

The rest of the 24 has to be male so

24-9=15

15/24 or 5/8

Answer 2

The fraction of male swimmers is 5/8.

Given,

24 swimmers are swimming in the pool.

9 of them are female.

We need to find what fraction of male swimmers.

How do we find fraction of items from the total items?

We write in two parts numerator and denominator.

= Numerator / Denominator

= Number of required items / Total number of items

Find the total number of swimmers.

= 24

Find the number of male swimmers.

= Total swimmers - Female swimmers

= 24 - 9

= 15

Find the fraction of male swimmers.

= Number of male swimmers / Total number of swimmers
= 15 / 24

Taking out the common factor

= 3 x 5 / 3 x 8

= 5/8

Thus the fraction of male swimmers is 5/8.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rules of exponents are ...

  (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

  (ab)^c = (a^c)(b^c)

  (a^b)^c = a^(bc)

__

Using these rules, along with the distributive property, we can simplify the given expression.

  [tex]\displaystyle 9a^3b^6(3a^3b^2+7a^2b^2)-(5a^4b^4)^2\\\\=\displaystyle 9a^3b^6(3a^3b^2+7a^2b^2)-(5^2a^{4\cdot2}b^{4\cdot2})\\\\=(9)(3)a^{3+3}b^{6+2}+(9)(7)a^{3+2}b^{6+2}-25a^8b^8=27a^6b^8+63a^5b^8-25a^8b^8\\\\=\boxed{-25a^8b^8+27a^6b^8+63a^5b^8}\qquad\text{matches A}[/tex]

How -15 + 8 gives me 7 ????????

Answers

it doesn’t give you 7
it gives you -7
because when you add 8 to negative 15, you’re just basically subtracting it to give you -7

Answer:

It gives you -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of the problem as 8 - 15, because 8 is a smaller number and 15 is bigger, you'll get a negative number.

The next step is use the rule**a-b = -(b-a)**which is - (15 - 8)

Then when you simplify it, it will be - (15 - 8)= - 7**(which is the answer)

Answers

Answer:

15n

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The above table

Required

The formula of the table

First, calculate the slope (m)

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{n_2 - n_1}[/tex]

Where:

n = Number of Lawns

y = Earnings

[tex](n_1,y_1) = (2,30)[/tex]

[tex](n_2,y_2) = (5,75)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]m = \frac{75 - 30}{5 - 2}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{45}{3}[/tex]

[tex]m = 15[/tex]

The equation is then calculated as:

[tex]y = m(n- n_1) + y_1[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]y = 15(n- 2) + 30[/tex]

[tex]y = 15n- 30 + 30[/tex]

[tex]y = 15n[/tex]

5n < 50 <--- subtracts 4 from both sides

Check: testing n=0, we have 4 + 5(0) = 4 + 0 = 4 < 54, so yes it works

testing n=10, 4 + 5(10) = 4 + 50 = 54.

testing n=11, 4 + 5(11) = 4 + 55 = 59 <--- fails as expected.

21 and 22 are complementary angles. The measure of Z1 is 60°. The
measure of 22 is 5(x - 1)º. Find the value of x.

Answers

Answer:

The value of x is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles have a sum of 90°, therefore the equation to solve for x is:

∠1+∠2=90°

60°+5(x-1)°=90°

5(x-1)=30°

x-1=6

x=7

So the value of x is 7

Suppose that $10,083 is invested at an interest rate of 6.8% per year, compounded continuously.

a) Find the exponential function that describes the amount in the account after time t, in years.

b) What is the balance after 1 year? 2 years? 5 years? 10 years?

c) What is the doubling time?

Answers

Answer:

a) The exponential function is [tex]A(t) = 10083(1.068)^t[/tex]

b)

The balance after 1 year is of $10,768.644

The balance after 2 years is of $11,500.91

The balance after 5 years is of $14,010.25.

The balance after 10 years is of $19,467.15

c)

The doubling time is of 10.54 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Continuously compounded interest:

The amount of money earning after t years, with interest compounded continuously, is given by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1+r)^t[/tex]

In which A(0) is the amount of the initial investment and r is the growth rate, as a decimal.

a) Find the exponential function that describes the amount in the account after time t, in years.

Suppose that $10,083 is invested at an interest rate of 6.8% per year

This means, respectively, that [tex]A(0) = 10083, r = 0.068[/tex]

So

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1+r)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 10083(1+0.068)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 10083(1.068)^t[/tex]

b) What is the balance after 1 year? 2 years? 5 years? 10 years?

After 1 year:

[tex]A(1) = 10083(1.068)^{1} = 10,768.644[/tex]

The balance after 1 year is of $10,768.644

After 2 years:

[tex]A(2) = 10083(1.068)^{2} = 11,500.91[/tex]

The balance after 2 years is of $11,500.91.

After 5 years:

[tex]A(5) = 10083(1.068)^{5} = 14,010.25[/tex]

The balance after 5 years is of $14,010.25.

After 10 years:

[tex]A(10) = 10083(1.068)^{10} = 19,467.15[/tex]

The balance after 10 years is of $19,467.15.

c) What is the doubling time?

This is t for which [tex]A(t) = 2A(0)[/tex]. So

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1.068)^t[/tex]

[tex](1.068)^t = 2[/tex]

[tex]\log{(1.068)^t} = \log{2}[/tex]

[tex]t\log{1.068} = \log{2}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{\log{2}}{\log{1.068}}[/tex]

[tex]t = 10.54[/tex]

The doubling time is of 10.54 years.
