7/8 - 3/8 ?

Answer:

5.12

Step-by-step explanation:

1 lb               .79 lbs

------------ =  -----------

6.49             x dollars

Using cross products

1x = 6.49 * .79

x =5.12 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

x = pounds birdseed

y = pounds sunflower seeds

x + y = 30

0.57x + 0.87y = 30×0.81

with this last trick (to calculate the full cost of the whole 30 pounds based on the targeted individual price per pound) we bring both constraints into the play.

from the first equation we get

x = 30 - y

and we use that in the second equation :

0.57×(30-y) + 0.87y = 30×0.81 = $24.30

17.1 - 0.57y + 0.87y = 24.3

0.3y = 7.2

y = 24

x = 30 - y = 30 - 24 = 6

she uses 6 pounds of birdseed and 24 pounds of sunflower seeds.

Answer:

Answer:

360 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

this is because 60sec is one mintute

so 60x5= 360

Answer: yes they are

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem is:

[tex] {c}^{2} = {a}^{2} + {b}^{2} [/tex]

where c is the hypotenuse.

The two wires in the sketch are the hypotenuse so we just use the formula

let the wires=x

So:

[tex] {x}^{2} = {12}^{2} + {6}^{2} [/tex]

[tex] {x}^{2} = 144 + 36[/tex]

[tex] {x}^{2} = 180[/tex]

[tex]x = \sqrt{180} [/tex]

[tex]x = 13.42[/tex] feet

Answer:

  71.6°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle can be found from the dot product of PQ and PR.

  PQ·PR = |PQ|×|PR|×cos(α)

where α is the angle between the two segments.

  cos(α) = (Q -P)·(R -P)/(|Q -P|×|R -P|)

  = ((0, 1, 0) -(1, 0, 0))·((0, 0, 2) -(1, 0, 0))/(|Q -P|×|R -P|)

  = (-1, 1, 0)·(-1, 0, 2)/(√(((-1)² +1²)((-1²) +2²)) = (1+0+0)/√10

  α = arccos(1/√10) ≈ 71.6°

The angle at P is about 71.6°.

Additional comment

The side lengths of the triangle are √2, √5, √5. As we have seen, the angle at P is bounded by the sides of length √2 and √5. The law of cosines can also be used to arrive at the angle between these sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc length is calculated as

arc = circumference of circle × fraction of circle

     = 2πr × [tex]\frac{\frac{\pi }{4} }{2\pi }[/tex] ( cancel 2π on numerator/ denominator )

     = 15 × [tex]\frac{\pi }{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

100% - 25% off = 75%

Here, 75% of the initial price X, is the sale price of jeans during the season which is $60.

75/100 × X = $60

75X/100 =$60

( cross multiply)

75X=100×60

75X= 6000

X=6000÷75

X= $80

Answer:

  (x -3)^2 +(y +2)^2 +z^2 = 13.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide by 4 and complete the squares.

  x^2 -6x +y^2 +4y +z^2 = 1/4

  (x^2 -6x +9) +(y^2 +4y +4) +z^2 = 13 1/4

  (x -3)^2 +(y +2)^2 +z^2 = 13.25

For the 20ft from doc. Set up triangle, with dr/dt on the hypotenuse = 2. 6 on the y, 20 on the x. Use x^2+ y^2= r^2. Differentiate and solve for dx/dt. 2x(dx/dt) + 2y(dy/dt)=2r(dr/dt); Since y value does not change, your y vector is equal to 0. Giving us 2x(dx/dt)=2r(dr/dt) ; dx/dt=(2r(dr/dt))/2x

Do the same thing for 10ft

No it is not surprising because as the angle between the dock and the boat decreases, more force is being used to pull up on the boat, not pull it inwards. Thus, the boats horizontal velocity will slow down as it beats the dock.

Answer:

5 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

John deposits $5 per week and has $10, so his equation is 5x + 10.

Jasmine's equation is 3x + 20.

Make them equal to each other and solve for x:

5x + 10 = 3x + 20

Subtract 10 from each side

5x = 3x + 10

Subtract 3x from each side

2x = 10

Divide each side by 2

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the t-distribution, it is found that since the test statistic is less than the critical value for the right-tailed test, there is not enough evidence to conclude that an average box of cereal contain more than 368 grams of cereal.

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the average box of cereal does not contain more than 368 grams, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu \leq 368[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if it contains, that is:

[tex]H_1: \mu > 368[/tex]

We have the standard deviation for the sample, hence, the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The test statistic is given by:

[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

The parameters are:

In this problem, the values of the parameters are: [tex]\overline{x} = 372.5, \mu = 368, s = 15, n = 25[/tex].

Hence, the value of the test statistic is:

[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{372.5 - 368}{\frac{15}{\sqrt{25}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = 1.5[/tex]

The critical value for a right-tailed test, as we are testing if the mean is greater than a value, with a significance level of 0.05, with 25 -1 = 24 df, is of [tex]t^{\ast} = 1.71[/tex].

Since the test statistic is less than the critical value for the right-tailed test, there is not enough evidence to conclude that an average box of cereal contain more than 368 grams of cereal.

Answer:

no solutions exist

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this by using system of equations and using substitution.

2(8-3y)+6y=2      Substitute x=8-3y into the first equation.

16-6y+6y=2         Distribute.

16=2                     Simplify.

16 does not equal 2, so there are no solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the initial velocity of the object is 170 ft/s, the expression for h is given by

[tex]h = -16t^2 + 170t[/tex]

In order to find the time it takes for the object to reach the height of 302 ft, we to rewrite the equation above as

[tex]302 = -16t^2 +170t \Rightarrow 16t^2 - 170t + 302 = 0[/tex]

This is a quadratic equation whose roots are

[tex]t = \dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

where a = 16, b = -170 and c = 302. Using these values, we get

[tex]t = \dfrac{170 \pm \sqrt{(-170)^2 - 4(16)(302)}}{2(16)}[/tex]

[tex]\;\;\;=\dfrac{170 \pm \sqrt{28900 - 19328}}{32}[/tex]

[tex]\;\;\;= \dfrac{170 \pm 97.8}{32}[/tex]

[tex]\;\;\;= 2.3\:\text{s},\;\;8.4\:\text{s},[/tex]

This means the object will reach the height of 302 ft 2.3 seconds after launch and then at 8.4 seconds after launch (on its way down).
