'I decided to add 8.6 to my number then multiply the result by 3, After that I subtracted 1.9 then doubled the result. The answer is 59.2'
What number was Savannah first thinking of?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The number was 1.9

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

Let the number be x.

Set up equation to reflect all the operations:

((x + 8.6)*3 - 1.9)*2 = 59.2

Solve it in below steps:

((x + 8.6)*3 - 1.9)*2 = 59.2(x + 8.6)*3 - 1.9 = 59.2/2 (x + 8.6)*3 - 1.9 = 29.6(x + 8.6)*3 = 29.6 + 1.9 (x + 8.6)*3 = 31.5x + 8.6 = 31.5/3 x + 8.6 = 10.5x = 10.5 - 8.6 x = 1.9

A taxi company charges a $2.00 base fare plus an additional fare based on a per-mile rate and a per-minute rate. Ryan's first taxi ride was 3.0 miles, took 7 minutes, and cost $8.50. His second taxi ride was 7.0 miles, took 14 minutes, and cost $16.00. If his third taxi ride took 10 minutes and cost $13.50, approximately how many miles was the third taxi ride

Answers

A $2.00 base fare charge, and per-mile, and per-minute rates related as follows; 3•x + 7•y = 6.5 and 7•x + 14•y = 14, give the distance traveled in the third ride as 4.5 miles

How can the length of the third ride be calculated?

The base fare = $2.00

Let x represent the per-mile rate, and let y represent the per-minute rate, we have;

The cost of Ryan's first taxi ride = $8.50

Distance traveled in the first ride = 3.0 miles

Time taken during the first ride = 7 minutes

Therefore;

2 + 3•x + 7•y = 8.5

Which gives;

3•x + 7•y = 8.5 - 2 = 6.5

3•x + 7•y = 6.5...(1)

Distance traveled in the second ride = 7.0 miles

Duration of the second ride = 14 minutes

The second ride cost = $16.00

Therefore;

2 + 7•x + 14•y = 16

Which gives;

7•x + 14•y = 16 - 2 = 14

7•x + 14•y = 14...(2)

Solving the above simultaneous equations by multiplying equation (1) by 2 then subtracting the result from equation (2) gives;

(7•x + 14•y) - 2 × (3•x + 7•y) = 14 - 2×6.5 = 1

x = 1

The per-mile rate, x = $1

3•x + 7•y = 6.5

7•y = 6.5 - 3•x

7•y = 6.5 - 3×1 = 3.5

y = 3.5/7 = 1/2 = 0.5

The per-minute rate, y = $0.5

Duration of the third taxi ride = 10 minutes

Cost of the third ride = $13.50

Therefore;

2 + 1×a + 10×y = $13.50

Where a is the distance traveled during the third ride, we have;

2 + 1×a + 10×0.5 = $13.50

2 + a + 5 = 13.5

a = 13.5 - 2 - 7 = 4.5

The third ride was, a = 4.5 miles

Answers

Answer:

240π cm³ (exact)

754 cm³ (approximate)

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume the shape of the cup is a cylinder. The height of the cylinder is 15 cm.

Think of a vertical rectangle that contains the vertical axes of the cylinder.

Two sides of the rectangle are diameters of the bases of the cylinder. The other two side are heights of the cylinder. The pencil is 17 cm long and is a diagonal of this rectangle. We can find the diameter of the base of the cylinder using the Pythagorean theorem.

In a rectangle that is 15 cm long, the diagonal measures 17 cm.

a² + b² = c²

15² + b² = 17²

b = 8

The diameter of the cup is 8 cm.

The 95% confidence interval for the standard deviation of the height of students at UH is given by; CI = (1.81, 4.03)

How to find the confidence interval for standard deviation?

The formula for the confidence interval for the standard deviation is given by the formula;

CI = √[(n - 1)s²/(χ²ₙ ₋ ₁, α/2)], √[(n - 1)s²/(χ²ₙ ₋ ₁, (1 - α)/2)]

We are given;

Sample size; n = 14

D F = n - 1 = 14 - 1 = 13

Standard Deviation; s = 2.5

Confidence Level; CL = 95% = 0.95

Significance level; α = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05

Thus, using Chi-square distribution table online we have;

χ²₁₃, ₀.₀₂₅  = 24.736

Answers

Vic and Dan are 2, 897m apart.

How to determine the distance

It is important to note that the distance between Vic and Dan is the base of CN

Let's say the distance to Dan is x

The distance to Vic is y

Using cosine ratio, we have

cos α = opposite / adjacent

α = 72°

opposite = 553. 3cm

Adjacent = x

cos  72° = [tex]\frac{553. 3}{x}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]cos 72[/tex] × [tex]x[/tex] = [tex]553. 3[/tex]

[tex]0. 3090x= 553. 3[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{553. 3}{0. 3090}[/tex]

[tex]x = 1, 790. 61[/tex] m

The distance to Vic is y

Using the cosine ratio, we have

[tex]cos 60 = \frac{553. 3}{y}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]0. 5y = 553. 3[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{553. 3}{0. 5}[/tex]

[tex]y = 1,106. 6[/tex]m

To determine how far apart Vic and Dan, we use = x + y

= 1790. 61 + 1106. 6

= 2, 897. 21m

= 2, 897m

Thus, Vic and Dan are 2, 897m apart.

Suppose in a class of 60 students 5 have no siblings, 26 have one sibling, 14 have two siblings, and 15 have three siblings. Calculate the relative frequency of students who have three siblings. (please express as a percentage)

Answers

The relative frequency of students who have three siblings is 25% given that there are 60 students in a class in which 5 have no siblings, 26 have one sibling, 14 have two siblings and 15 have three siblings. This can be obtained by using the formula for relative frequency.

What is the relative frequency of students who have three siblings?

Given that,

total number of students in the class = 60

number of students who have no sibling = 5

number of students who have 1 sibling = 26

number of students who have 2 sibling = 14

number of students who have 3 sibling = 15

Formula for relative frequency = f/n, where f is the number of times the data occurred, n is the total number of frequencies.

Therefore,

relative frequency of students who have three siblings = 15/60 = 0.25

In percentage ⇒ 0.25 × 100 = 25%

Hence the relative frequency of students who have three siblings is 25% given that there are 60 students in a class in which 5 have no siblings, 26 have one sibling, 14 have two siblings and 15 have three siblings.

Two numbers are independently selected from the set of positive integers less than or equal to 5. What is the probability that the sum of the two numbers is greater than their product

Answers

There is a 9/25 chance that two numbers will be added together such that their total exceeds their product.

How to find out the probability

The set of positive numbers are:

{1,2,3,4,5}

We have to independently select two numbers from these sets.

We are trying to determine the likelihood that the sum is larger than the product of the integers.

When one of the chosen numbers is 1, the total will always be greater than the product because:

1*1=1 & 1+1=2

1*2=2 & 1+2=3

1*3=3 & 1+3=4

1*4=4 & 1+4=5

1*5=5 & 1+5=6

and so on.

If we select 2 as both numbers then,

2*2=4 & 2+2=4

Here sum and the product are equal.

If not, the product will be bigger than the sum.

Now, the first stage is to evaluate the total number of two combinations that are feasible:

We have 5 alternatives for the first number and 5 alternatives for the second number.

The product of the number of possibilities in each scenario yields the total number of combinations:

C= 5*5=25

The following combinations have a sum that is greater than the product :

1 and 1

1 and 2

1 and 3

1 and 4

1 and 5

2 and 1

3 and 1

There were 74 problems in the test.

Rounding-off percentage

Let the student got total number of problems in the test to be X.

Percentage of correct answer = 39 %

⇒ 61% of X were incorrect

⇒61/100 x X = 45

⇒61X = 45x100

⇒X = 4500/61

⇒X=73.77

After rounding off 73.77, we get 74.

Hence, we can say that there were total of 74 problems in the test.

#SPJ4

The denominator of a fraction exceeds numerator by 3. If the numerator is doubled and the denominator is increased by 14, then fraction becomes 2/3rd of the original fraction.

Answers

Answer:

The original fraction is 4/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the fraction be x/y.

According to question we have the following equations.

The denominator of a fraction exceeds numerator by 3:

y = x + 3

If the numerator is doubled and the denominator is increased by 14, then fraction becomes 2/3rd of the original fraction:

2x/(y + 14) = (2/3)*(x/y)

Change the fraction as below and solve for y:

2x /(y + 14) = 2x/(3y)                       Nominators are samey + 14 = 3y                                      Compare denominators2y =  14y = 7

Find the value of x using the first equation:

7 = x + 3x = 7 - 3x = 4

The fraction is:

x/y = 4/7

Answer:

Original fraction = ⁴/₇

Step-by-step explanation:

Numerator:  top of the fraction

Denominator: bottom of a fraction

Let x be the original numerator.

If the denominator of a fraction exceeds the numerator by 3:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{x}{x+3}[/tex]

If the numerator is doubled and the denominator is increased by 14, then fraction becomes 2/3rd of the original fraction:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{2x}{x+3+14}=\dfrac{2}{3}\left(\dfrac{x}{x+3}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{2x}{x+17}=\dfrac{2x}{3(x+3)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{2x}{x+17}=\dfrac{2x}{3x+9}[/tex]

Cross multiply:

[tex]\implies 2x(3x+9)=2x(x+17)[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2x:

[tex]\implies 3x+9=x+17[/tex]

Subtract x from both sides:

[tex]\implies 2x+9=17[/tex]

Subtract 9 from both sides:

[tex]\implies 2x=8[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2:

[tex]\implies x=4[/tex]

Substitute the found value of x into the original fraction:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{4}{4+3}=\dfrac{4}{7}[/tex]

Therefore, the original fraction is ⁴/₇.
