Meg and Kevin wanted to solve this problem: In 6 hours, Hank the Hiker hiked 24 miles. At that rate, how far can he hike in 9 hours? Meg claimed she could solve the problem by finding Hank’s unit rate of speed in miles per hour. She began by writing the equation: . Explain whether or not she can find the unit rate this way. Then find the unit rate and use it to solve the problem. Show all your work.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Hank hike 36 miles in 9 h.

6 hours for 24 miles

9 hours for x miles

[tex]Hank_{rate} =24/6=4\;mi/h[/tex]

[tex]x = Hank_{rate}\times Hours=4\;\frac{mi}{h} \times 9\;mi=36 \;miles[/tex]

Solve the system of equations.
y= 3x
y= x2-10

Answers

Answer:

(-5, 2) and (2, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the substitution method. We know that y = 3x and y = x^2 - 10, so we can set them equal to one another.

3x = x^2 - 10

x^2 - 3x - 10 = 0

Use the quadratic equation to solve for x.

x = - 5, 2

Now solve for y using these two values of x by substituting it back into the equations.

y = - 15,  6

What is the x-intercept of f-1(x)?

(-3/10,0)
(3/4,0)
( 2 1/2, 0)

Answers

Answer: (2 1/2, 0) (the last option)

Step-by-step explanation:

I guess the function is:

f(x) = (2  1/2) - (3  1/2)*x

now, the rule for f-1(x) that we know is:

f-1( f(x) ) = x.

So if we want to find the x-intercept of f-1(x), we must evaluate it in f(0)

f-1(f(0)) = 0.

And we have that f(0) = (2  1/2) - (3  1/3)*x = 2  1/2

This means that the x-intercept of f-1(x) will be when x= 2  1/2, so the intercept is:

(2 1/2, 0)

The distribution of average wait times in drive-through restaurant lines in one town was approximately normal with mean \mu = 185μ=185mu, equals, 185 seconds and standard deviation \sigma = 11σ=11sigma, equals, 11 seconds. A journalist wrote an article about the restaurants whose average drive-through wait times were in the top 25\%25%25, percent for that town. What is the minimum average wait time for restaurants that the journalist included in the article?

Answers

Using the normal distribution, it is found that the minimum average wait time is of 192 seconds.

------------------

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem:

Mean of 185 seconds, thus [tex]\mu = 185[/tex].Standard deviation of 11 seconds, thus [tex]\sigma = 11[/tex].The top 25% is at least the 100 - 25 = 75th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.75, so X when Z = 0.675.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]0.675 = \frac{X - 185}{11}[/tex]

[tex]X - 185 = 11(0.675)[/tex]

[tex]X = 192[/tex]

The minimum wait time is of 192 seconds.

Ms. Wolfram's compost bin used for her garden is shaped like a rectangular prism. The bin is 4 inches long, 18 inches wide, and 9 inches tall.

Green Material:

Answers

Ms. Wolfram should ask her husband Stephen, who's an incredible mathematician and computer scientist who's given the world a great gift in the website Wolfram Alpha which can answer all your math questions and more.

Anyway the volume of the bin is length times width times height,

V = 4 × 18 × 9 = 648 cubic inches

So the volume of brown is 20 % of that

B = 20% of V = .2 × 648  = 129.6 cubic inches

The volume of green is 30%,

G = 30% of V = .3 × 648 = 194.4 cubic inches

A local car dealer has 150 cars on the lot. 30% of the cars are sedans. How many of the cars are NOT sedans?

Answers

Answer:

105 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

150cars=100%

and if 30% of the cars are sedans then the cars which are not sedans is

100%-30% =70%

if 150 cars=100%

? cars=70%

if less more devides

70%/100%×150cars

all zeros cancel which would be left with

7× 15

105 cars.

Answer:

The answer is 105

So that 30% of those cars are 45 Sedans of the 150 cars.

Now we need to find out how many cars are in that remaining 70%

In order to do this we need to subtract 45 from 150

So 150 minus 45 is 105

Finally, we know that that remaining 70% is 105 cars that aren't Sedans.

So 105 cars are not Sedans.

The math department needs to buy new textbooks and laptops for
the computer science classroom. The textbooks cost $89.00 each, and
the laptops cost $395.00 each.
a. If the math department has $7200 to spend and purchases 60
textbooks, how many laptops can they buy?
b. Suppose the math department decided to purchase 35
textbooks instead of 60. How does this change the number of
laptops that they can buy?

Answers

Answer:

a. 4

b. 10

Step-by-step explanation:

A. If the math department buys 60 textbooks, which are $89 each, we need to multiply 60 by $89 to get the amount that the textbooks will cost. This gives us $5340. Since the math department has $7200 to spend, we subtract 5340 from 7200. This gives us $1860 that the math department has left to spend on laptops.  Since the laptops cost $395 each, and we have $1860 to spend, we divide 1860 by 395 to figure out how many laptops they can buy. This is 4.7. Since you can't buy 0.7 of a laptop, they can only buy 4 laptops. The final answer is 4.

B. The math department has $7200 to spend and buys 35 textbooks, which are $89 each. Multiply 35 by 89. This is $3115. Subtract this from $7200 to see how much the department has left to spend. The math department now has only $4085 to spend on laptops, which are $395 each. Divide 4085 by 395. This gives us 10.3. We can't buy 0.3 of a laptop, so they can only buy 10 laptops. The answer is 10.

Answer:

A:$7200-$5340

=$1860

They can buy 4 laptops which will cost $1580 and leave you with $280

B: 35 textbooks will cost $3115, which will leave us with $4085, so we can get 10 laptops

A bank loaned out $20,000, part of it at the rate of 9% per year and the rest at 17% per
year. If the interest received in one year totaled $3000, how much was loaned at 9%?
How much of the $20,000 did the bank loan out at 9%?

Answers

Answer:

The bank loan out at $5000 at 9%

Step-by-step explanation:

A bank loaned out $20,000

Let x be the amount loaned at at the rate of 9% per year

So, 20000-x amount loaned at at the rate of 17% per year

Formula : [tex]A =P(1+r)^t[/tex]

Amount at 9% interest in 1 year

[tex]A=x(1+0.09)^1[/tex]

A=1.09x

Interest = Amount - Principal = 1.09x-x=0.09x

Amount at 17% interest in 1 year

[tex]A=(20000-x)(1+0.17)^1[/tex]

A=1.17(20000-x)

Interest = Amount - Principal = 1.17(20000-x)-(20000-x)

We are given that the interest received in one year totaled $3000

So,1.17(20000-x)-(20000-x)+0.09x=3000

x=5000

So, the bank loan out at $5000 at 9%

Answer: The distance from Shively to the tower is 386.1 meters

The distance from Sparzak to the tower is 226.9 meters

The distance from Shively to Spazak is 386.1 m + 226.9m = 616 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can create a triangle rectangle between the position of each boy, the bottom of the tower and the top of the tower.

From the left kid (i think is Shively), we have that the top angle (formed between the perpendicular line to the tower and the tower) must be:

A = 90° - 40° =50°

(that is a 90° angle divided by the hypotenuse of the triangle, then if one side is 40°, the other angle should be such that when we add bot angles the sum is 90°)

Now, we want to find the opposite cathetus to this angle, so we can use the relation:

Tan(A) = Opposite cath/adjacent cath.

And we know that the adjacent cathetus, the tower, is 324m long.

then:

Tan(50°) = X/324m.

Tan(50°)*324m = X = 386.1m

now for the other kid (the one in the right, Sparzak), the angle will be 90° - 55° = 35°.

So we have:

Tan(35°) = X/324m

Tan(45°)*324m = 226.9m

then:

The distance from Shively to the tower is 386.1 meters

The distance from Sparzak to the tower is 226.9 meters

The distance from Shively to Spazak is 386.1 m + 226.9m = 616 meters.
