A waitress works 1.75 hours less in the afternoon than in the evening. If she works 5 1/8
hours in the afternoon, how many hours does she work in the evening?
Answer: The waitress works:[tex]\[{6 \frac{7}{8}}[/tex] hours in the evening
Let us denote the number of hours the waitress works in the evening as E and the number of hours she works in the afternoon as A.
Given that:
[tex]\[A = 5 \frac{1}{8} \text{ hours}\][/tex]
We can convert the mixed number to an improper fraction:
[tex]\[5 \frac{1}{8} = 5 + \frac{1}{8} = \frac{40}{8} + \frac{1}{8} = \frac{41}{8}\][/tex]
So, [tex]\( A = \frac{41}{8} \)[/tex] hours.
The waitress works 1.75 hours less in the afternoon than in the evening. Thus, we have:
[tex]\[A = E - 1.75\][/tex]
[tex]\[\frac{41}{8} = E - 1.75\][/tex]
Converting 1.75 to a fraction:
[tex]\[1.75 = \frac{7}{4} = \frac{14}{8}\][/tex]
Now, the equation becomes:
[tex]\[\frac{41}{8} = E - \frac{14}{8}\][/tex]
[tex]\[E = \frac{41}{8} + \frac{14}{8}\]\[E = \frac{41 + 14}{8} = \frac{55}{8}\][/tex]
Convert the improper fraction back to a mixed number:
[tex]\[\frac{55}{8} = 6 \frac{7}{8}\][/tex]
Therefore, the waitress works:
[tex]\[{6 \frac{7}{8}}[/tex] hours in the evening

A bag of uninflated balloons contains 10 red, 12 blue, 15 yellow and 8 green balloons. A balloon is drawn at random, what is the probability of drawing a red balloon?
We have been given that a bag of uninflated balloons contains 10 red, 12 blue, 15 yellow and 8 green balloons.
We need to find the probability of drawing a red balloon.
We know that probability is given by
[tex]\\ \text{Probability =} \frac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}[/tex]
Since we know that there are 10 red balloons. Therefore, our number of favorable outcomes is 10.
In order to find the total number of outcomes, we will add balloons of all colors.
Therefore, total outcomes are = [tex]10+12+15+8 = 45[/tex]
We can now substitute the values of favorable outcomes and total outcomes in order to find the required probability.
[tex]\\ \text{Probability =} \frac{\text{10}}{\text{45}} = \frac{2}{9}[/tex]

The perimeter of a rectangular garden is 100 feet (ft). the area of the rectangular garden area is 600 ft2. find the length and width of the garden. let the length of the garden be the shorter side, of necessary.
The length of the garden is 20 feet and the width is 30 feet.
To solve this problem, we will use the formulas for the perimeter and area of a rectangle. The perimeter (P) of a rectangle is given by the formula P = 2(l + w), where l is the length and w is the width. The area (A) of a rectangle is given by the formula A = lw.
Given the perimeter of the garden is 100 feet, we can set up the following equation:
[tex]\[ 2(l + w) = 100 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ l + w = 50 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ w = 50 - l \][/tex]
This equation relates the length and width of the garden.
Next, we are given that the area of the garden is 600 square feet:
[tex]\[ lw = 600 \][/tex]
Substituting the expression for w from the first equation into the area equation, we get:
[tex]\[ l(50 - l) = 600 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ 50l - l^2 = 600 \][/tex]
Rearranging the terms, we have a quadratic equation:
[tex]\[ l^2 - 50l + 600 = 0 \][/tex]
To solve this quadratic equation, we can factor it:
[tex]\[ (l - 20)(l - 30) = 0 \][/tex]
This gives us two possible solutions for the length: l = 20 feet or l = 30 feet.
Since we are asked to let the length be the shorter side, if necessary, we choose the smaller value for the length:
[tex]\[ l = 20 \text{ feet} \][/tex]
Now we can find the width by substituting the length back into the equation for the perimeter:
[tex]\[ w = 50 - l \][/tex]
[tex]\[ w = 50 - 20 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ w = 30 \text{ feet} \][/tex]
Therefore, the length of the garden is 20 feet and the width is 30 feet.

The width of the pond is approximately 38.7 inches and the length is approximately 77.4 inches.
Explanation:To find the length and width of the pond, we can use the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism: length × width × depth. We are given that the depth is 24 inches and the volume is 72,000 cubic inches.
Let's denote the width as w.
Since the length is two times the width, we can express the width as w and the length as 2w.
Therefore, the equation for the volume becomes:
2w × w × 24 = 72,000
48w^2 = 72,000
w^2 = 1,500
w ≈ 38.7
Therefore, the width is approximately 38.7 inches and the length is approximately 77.4 inches.

A large truck and a small car have a head-on collision. Which scenario is true?
A) The truck has the greater acceleration because it has the greater mass
B) The car has the greater acceleration because it has the smaller mass
C) Both the truck and car have the same magnitude of acceleration
(Edit: This was meant to go in the Physics section, I'm so sorry about this, if anyone here could still answer that's be amazing)
In a collision, both the car and truck experience the same force due to Newton's Third Law. However, due to Newton's Second Law, the car, with its smaller mass, experiences a greater acceleration.
Explanation:According to Newton's Third Law of Motion, 'for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction', both the truck and the car would experience the same magnitude of force. However, let's recall Newton's Second Law, 'force equals mass times acceleration' (F=ma). Using these physics principles, we can deduce that the car with the smaller mass would experience a greater acceleration, and the large truck would experience a lesser acceleration. This is because when the same force is applied to both objects, an object with a smaller mass will have a greater acceleration compared to an object with a larger mass. Hence, option B) 'The car has the greater acceleration because it has the smaller mass' would be the correct answer based on Newton's laws of motion.

Professor Scott has 84 students in his college mathematics lecture class. The scores on the midterm exam are normally distributed with a mean of 72.3 and a standard deviation of 8.9. How many students in the class can be expected to receive a score between 63.4 and 81.2? Express the answer to the nearest student.
Answer: 57
=====================================================
Explanation:
Convert each raw score to a z score
If x = 63.4, then
z = (x-mu)/sigma
z = (63.4-72.3)/8.9
z = -1
if x = 81.2, then
z = (x-mu)/sigma
z = (81.2-72.3)/8.9
z = 1
So P(63.4 < x < 81.2) is the same as P(-1 < z < 1)
Through the empirical rule (aka the 68-95-99.7 rule), we know that roughly 68% of the data values are within one standard deviation of the mean. In other words
P(-1 < z < 1) = 0.68 approximately (see note below)
Multiply 0.68 by the total 84 to get
0.68*84 = 57.12
which rounds to 57 people
Note: we can use a calculator to get a more accurate result of 0.68268949; a data table works as well but it won't be as accurate. For the purposes of this problem, the value 0.68 is good enough

16. Supposes that y varies inversely with x and that y-10 whenx-7. Which of the following equations models this relationship?
A. Y=70x
B. Y=-10x
C. Y=x/70
D. Y=70/x
The equation that models this relation is y = 70/x. So, option (D) is the correct answer.
What is constant of proportionality?The constant of proportionality is the ratio of two proportional values at a constant value. Two variable values have a proportional relationship when either their ratio or their product gives a constant.
For the given situation,
The values are y = 10 and x = 7
y varies inversely with x.
⇒ [tex]y[/tex] ∝ [tex]\frac{1}{x}[/tex]
To remove proportionality we introduce a constant 'k'.
⇒ [tex]y=\frac{k}{x}[/tex]
Substitute the values of x and y,
⇒ [tex]10=\frac{k}{7}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]k=70[/tex]
Now substitute the value of k = 70 in y,
⇒ [tex]y = \frac{70}{x}[/tex]
Hence we can conclude that the equation that models this relation is y = 70/x. So, option (D) is the correct answer.
