After cutting a piece 1.65 m long from a piece of cable, the remaining
piece is 3.50 m long. How long was the cable originally? _____

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5.15 m

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how long the cable was originally, find the sum of the length of the piece that was cut off and the length of the remaining piece:

1.65 + 3.5 = 5.15

The cable was originally 5.15 m long.

In GHJ, GH = 21 inches, HJ = 24 inches, and GJ = 9 inches. Which statement is true? A. G is smallest B. J is smallest C. H is largest D. G is largest

Answers

Answer:

G is the smallest

H is the largest

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]GH = 21[/tex]

[tex]HJ = 24[/tex]

[tex]GJ = 9[/tex]

Required

Which of the statements is true

First, we need to solve for G, H and J as follows:

[tex]G + H = 21[/tex] --- (1)

[tex]H + J = 24[/tex] --- (2)

[tex]G + J = 9[/tex] --- (3)

Make G the subject in (1)

[tex]G = 21 - H[/tex]

Substitute 21 - H for G in (3)

[tex]21 - H + J = 9[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]-H + J = 9 - 21[/tex]

[tex]-H + J = -12[/tex]

Make J the subject

[tex]J = H - 12[/tex]

Substitute H - 12 for J in (2)

[tex]H + H - 12 = 24[/tex]

[tex]2H - 12 = 24[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]2H = 24 + 12[/tex]

[tex]2H = 36[/tex]

Solve for H

[tex]H = 18[/tex]

Substitute 18 for H in [tex]J = H - 12[/tex]

[tex]J = 18 - 12[/tex]

[tex]J = 6[/tex]

Substitute 18 for H in [tex]G = 21 - H[/tex]

[tex]G = 21 - 18[/tex]

[tex]G = 3[/tex]

So, we have that:

[tex]G = 3[/tex]     [tex]J = 6[/tex]     [tex]H = 18[/tex]

Hence, we can conclude that:

G is the smallest

H is the largest

The corner market sells potatoes at a rate of 1/2 dollars per potato.
1. Amanda is only able to spend $5 on potatoes. What is the most number of potatoes she can buy?
2. Sam wants to buy 15 potatoes. How much will that cost him?

Answers

Answer:

The cost of 15 potatoes is $7.50

Step-by-step explanation:

The potatoes are sold at a rate of $0.5 per potato.

1. Given Amanda can only spend $5 on potatoes at that price, she can buy at most $5 / 0.5 = 10 potatoes.

Amanda can buy at most 10 potatoes

2. Sam wants to buy 15 potatoes at that very same price. The cost of 15 potatoes is:

15 * $0.5 = $7.50

The cost of 15 potatoes is $7.50

Graph titled Distance Vs Time is shown with Time in minutes along the x axis and Distance from Nest in miles along the y axis. The scale on the x axis shows the numbers 0 to 25 at increments of 5, and the scale on the y axis shows the numbers 1 to 8 at increments of 1. A straight line joins the ordered pairs 0, 3 and 5, 4 and 10, 5 and 15, 6 and 20, 7.

Based on the graph, what is the initial value of the graph and what does it represent? (1 point)

a
3 miles per minute; it represents the speed of the bird

b
0.2 mile per minute; it represents the speed of the bird

c

15% tip on a bill of $51.03

Answers

Answer:

7.6545

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: total = $58.68, tip = $7.65
Explanation: 15% of 51.03 + 51.03. So (15/100)*51.03+51.03= 7.6545 +51.03 = 58.6845. The tip is $7.65 and the final amount is $58.68.
Another way to solve is: 1.15 * 51.03 = 58.6845. This works because (15/100)*51.03+51.03–> 51.03*((15/100)+1) distributive property. For tip only, subtract 51.03 and you get 7.6545

Find the recursive rule, explicit rule, and f(20)

Answers

Answer:

Recursive:

[tex]f(1)=4, f(n)=f(n-1)-4[/tex]

Explicit:

[tex]f(n)=4-4(n-1)[/tex]

And the 20th term f(20) is -72.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the sequence:

4, 0, -4, -8...

Let’s find the recursive and explicit rule for the sequence.

Recursive Rule:

Let’s determine the factor by which the sequence is decreasing by. We see that each subsequent term is 4 less than the previous term. In other words, our common difference is -4.

So, this is a arithmetic sequence.

The standard format for an recursive rule for an arithmetic sequence is:

[tex]f(1)=a , f(n)=f(n-1)+(d)[/tex]

Where a is the initial term and d is our common difference.

From our sequence, we know that our initial term a is 4.

We also determined that our common difference is -4.

Substitute. Hence, our recursive rule is:

[tex]f(1)=4, f(n)=f(n-1)-4[/tex]

Explicit Rule:

The standard format for an explicit rule for an arithmetic sequence is:

[tex]f(n)=a+d(n-1)[/tex]

Where a is the initial term and d is the common difference. So, again, let’s substitute 4 for a and -4 for d. Hence, our explicit formula is:

[tex]f(n)=4-4(n-1)[/tex]

To find f(20), we can use the explicit formula. It is possible to use the recursive formula, but it gets tedious. Therefore, we will substitute 20 for n for our explicit formula:

[tex]f(20)=4-4(20-1)[/tex]

Evaluate:

[tex]\begin{aligned} f(20)&=4-4(19) \\ f(20)&=4-76 \\ f(20)&=-72 \end{aligned}[/tex]

Hence, our 20th term is -72.

14. Devon has an area rug with a width 3 feet less than its length, l. He has purchased a larger rug to fit into his new dorm room. Both length and width of Devon's new rug are 2 feet longer than the original. Find the simplified expression of the perimeter and the NEW rug.​ plsssss help.me show work

Answers

Answer:

Perimeter of the new rug   = 4x+2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be x feet and the width of the first rug will be x- 3 feet

Area = length * breadth = x * (x-3) = x²- 3x

Length of the new rug = x+2 feet

Width of the rug = x+2-3= x-1 feet

Perimeter of the recatngle = 2( length + breadth)

                                             = 2( x+2 + x-1)

                                               = 2 (2x+1)

                                                = 4x+2 feet

Douglas has a box with 49 paper clips.
Of the paper clips, 15 are yellow, 9 are
red, 6 are blue, 11 are orange and 8
are green. Douglas randomly picks 2
paper clips from the box.

If the first paper clip is red, what is the probability that the second paper clip is blue?

Answers

Answer:

6/48 is the likely possibility that he will pull out a blue one.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you will look at is how many blue there is and in this case there is 6. All you have to do (if it didn't already) is add up all of the paperclips and put the blue total number to get your answer. So if there was 49 but he drew out one to make it 48.  So the answer is 6/48

x^4 - 6x^2 - 27

Let u = x^2

We know that x^4 = (x^2)^2.

u^2 - 6u - 27

(u - 9)(u + 3)

Now, back-substitite for u.

(x^2 - 9)(x^2 + 3)

The RIGHT SIDE FACTOR is the difference of two squares.

So, x^2 - 9 becomes (x - 3)(x + 3).

(x - 3)(x + 3)^2

It will take 20 points to make the playoffs, the Hockey Team coach told the players. "We get 2 points for a win and 1 point for a tie." Let be the number of wins and be the number of ties. Write an equation to describe the values of and that will let them make the playoffs.​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]2x+y\geq 20[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that total points required to make the playoffs = 20 points

As there is 2 points for a win,

so points earned for x win = 2x

Similarly, as there is 1 point for a tie.

so points earned for y ties = 1[tex]\times[/tex] y= y

Total points earned for x win and y ties = 2x+y

As the team makes the playoff so the total points of the team must be equal to or greater than 20 points (i.e the minimum points to make the playoff), so

[tex]2x+y\geq 20[/tex]

Hence, the required equation is [tex]2x+y\geq 20[/tex].
