Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. [tex]Dexter = 11:5[/tex]  [tex]Lena = 9:4[/tex]

2. [tex]Dexter = \frac{11}{5}[/tex]  [tex]Lena = \frac{9}{4}[/tex]

3. [tex]Dexter = \frac{44}{20}[/tex]   [tex]Lena = \frac{45}{20}[/tex]

4. [tex]\frac{45}{20} > \frac{44}{20}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Dexter

[tex]Science\ Fiction = 11[/tex]

[tex]History = 5[/tex]

Lena

[tex]Science\ Fiction = 9[/tex]

[tex]History = 4[/tex]

Solving (1): Write as ratio

Represent Science Fiction with S and History with H

For Dexter;

[tex]Ratio = S : H[/tex]

[tex]Dexter = 11:5[/tex]

[tex]Lena = 9:4[/tex]

Solving (2): Write ratio as fraction

[tex]Fraction = \frac{S}{H}[/tex]

[tex]Dexter = \frac{11}{5}[/tex]

[tex]Lena = \frac{9}{4}[/tex]

Solving (3): Write as a common denominator

[tex]Dexter = \frac{11}{5}[/tex]

Multiply by [tex]\frac{4}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Dexter = \frac{11}{5} * \frac{4}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Dexter = \frac{44}{20}[/tex]

[tex]Lena = \frac{9}{4}[/tex]

Multiply by [tex]\frac{5}{5}[/tex]

[tex]Lena = \frac{9}{4} * \frac{5}{5}[/tex]

[tex]Lena = \frac{45}{20}[/tex]

Solving (4): Compare both fractions

By comparison;

[tex]\frac{45}{20}[/tex] is greater than [tex]\frac{44}{20}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\frac{45}{20} > \frac{44}{20}[/tex]

The formula for the remaining volume of fuel in a cars tank is I - E • D, where I is the initial volume of fuel, E if the fuel efficiency, and D is the distance traveled. Carson drove a distance of 120 kilometres. He initially had 30 litres of fuel, and his car's fuel efficiency is 100 cubic centimetres per kilometer. What calculation will give us the estimated volume of fuel left in Carson's tank by the end of the drive, in litres? a)30-100/1000 • 120 b)30•1000-100•20 c)30/1000 -100•120 d)30-100•1000•120

Answers

Answer:

a)30-100/1000 • 120

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Remaining volume of fuel in a cars tank = I - E • D

where,

I = initial volume of fuel

E = fuel efficiency

D = distance traveled.

Carson

I = 30

E = 100

D = 120

Estimated volume of fuel in Carson's tank = I - E • D

= 30 - 100/1000 * 120

a)30-100/1000 • 120

Answer:

A (30-(100/1000)x120)

Step-by-step explanation:

I is a volume quantity, D is a distance quantity, and E is a rate measured as volume/distance.

So ExD gives us volume quantity.

Distance units are consistent (kilometers) but the volume units of E are inconsistent with those of I and the desired answer.

Let's convert E to liters per kilometer. We will use the fact that there are 1000 cubic centimeters per liter.

You get: 30 liter - 100/1000 liters/kilometer x 120 kilometers

In conclusion, this is the calculation that will give us the estimated volume of fuel that remains in Carson's tank by the end of the drive, in liters:

30-100/1000x120.

Mike and Kate plan to save money for their wedding over a 20 month period. They will need to save $8,000 to help pay for the wedding. They set aside the same amount each month. After a year they saved $4,000. Mike and Kate know they must adjust their plan in order to meet their goal, so they came up with the following options:
Option A: Stay with saving the same amount they've been saving each month but postpone the wedding 2 months.
Option B: Increase the amount of money they save each month by $80 from what they've been saving.
Which of the following is a true statement?

Answers

Answer:

The Answer is Actually D. I just took the Test and got it Correct! have a Great Day.!!

Step-by-step explanation:

The true statement is that both plans will not amount to $8000 in the end

The target savings is given as:

[tex]Target = \$8000[/tex]

The amount saved after a year is given as:

[tex]Savings = \$4000[/tex]

Start by calculating the amount saved each month (by dividing the saved amount by 12)

[tex]Monthly = \frac{\$4000}{12}[/tex]

For option (A): To increase the wedding by 2 months.

This means that the duration of savings would be 22 months.

So, the estimated savings would be

[tex]Estimate= \frac{\$4000}{12} \times 22[/tex]

[tex]Estimate= \$7333[/tex]

For option (B): Increase savings by $80.

This means that they have 8 months to complete their savings

The estimated savings would be

[tex]Estimate= \$4000 + (\$80 + \frac{\$4000}{12}) \times 8[/tex]

[tex]Estimate= \$7307[/tex]

For both plans, the estimated savings are short of the target savings of $8000.

Hence, none of the plans would amount to $8000 in the end

Imani is making costumes for a play. She spent $146.58 on 21 yards of fabric. Write and solve an equation to find how much Imani paid for each yard of fabric.

Multiple choice question.
A)
21p=146.58; $6.98 per yard
B)
146.58p=21; $0.14 per yard
C)
146.58(21)=p; $3078.18 per yard
D)
21p=146.58; $3078.18 per yard

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

21 yards and Total cost of $146.58

p = 1 yard

Equation: 21p = 146.58

p = 146.58/21

p = 6.98

21p=146.58 will describe the equation and the amount paid for each yard is $6.98 so option (A) will be correct.

How to form an equation?

Determine the known quantities and designate the unknown quantity as a variable while trying to set up or construct a linear equation to fit a real-world application.

In other words, an equation is a set of variables that are constrained through a situation or case.

Amount of fabric = 21 yards

Since cost per yard of fabric is given by p

So,

The total cost of fabric = Amount of fabric ×  cost per yard

146.58 = 21p

21p=146.58

Now,

p = 146.58/21 = 6.98.

Hence "21p=146.58 will describe the equation and the amount paid for each yard is $6.98".

What is a line segment?

A line segment is simply defined as the portion of a line connecting two points that are known to be the endpoints.

From the information given, we have that;

Line RS has three segments which are line RS, Line ST and line RT, also S is the midpoint between points R and T

Given that;

Line RS = 2xLine ST = 5x + 4Line RT = 32

Then,

RS + ST = RT

Substitute the values

2x + 5x + 4 = 32

collect like terms

7x + 4 = 32

7x = 32 - 4

7x = 28

Find a value for k such that the following trinomial can be factored x^2-8x+k

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-8x+k is a quadratic expression of the form ax^2 + bx + c.  Here a = 1, b = -8 and c = k.  Focus on x^2-8x and complete the square as follows:  Take half of the coefficient of x (that is, take half of -8) and square the result:

(-4)^2 = 16; if we now write x^2-8x+ 16, we'll have the square of (x - 4):  (x -4)^2.

Thus, k = 16 turns x^2-8x+k into a perfect square.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

Two arms of the scissors represent he two lines intersecting each other at a point forming pairs of vertical angles ∠1, ∠3 and ∠2, ∠4.

By the definition of vertical angles,

∠1 ≅ ∠3 and ∠2 ≅ ∠4

Since, m∠1 = 143°

Therefore, m∠1 = m∠3 = 143°

m∠1 + m∠2 = 180° [Since linear pair of angles are supplementary]

143° + m∠2 = 180°

m∠2 = 180° - 143° = 37°

Therefore, m∠2 = m∠4 = 37°

What is the point slope form of the equation of a line?

The point slope form of a line is given by -

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

Given is a line that passes through the points (2, -1) and (10, 7).

The point - slope form of a line is given by the general equation -

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

We will find the slope of the line as follows -

m = (7 + 1)/(10 - 2) = 8/8 = 1

The line passes through the point (2, -1), so we can write the equation of line as -

y - (- 1) = x - 2

y + 1 = x - 2

x - y = 3

y =  x - 3

Therefore, the equation of the line passing through the points (2, -1) and (10, 7) is y =  x - 3.

Answer:

The correct option is;

Because the vertical line intercepted the graph more than once, the graph is of a relation, but it is not a function

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a function maps a given value of the input variable, to the output variable, we have that a relation that has two values of the dependent variable, for a given dependent variable is not a function

Therefore, a graph in which at one given value of the input variable, x, there are two values of the output variable y is not a graph of a function

With the vertical line test, if a vertical line drawn at any suitable location on the graph, intercepts the graph at more than two points, then the relationship shown on the graph is not a function.
