A number, n, is multiplied by -3/8. The product is -0.5 What is the value of n?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

n=4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

n*(-3/8)=-0.5

n=0.5/3/8

n=1/2 / 3/8

n=4/3

Check:

4/3*-3/8=-0.5

4/3*-3/8=-1/2

-1/2=-0/5

CORRECT!

find the area of the regular decagon if the apothem is 5 inches and a side is 3.2 inches. Round to the nearest whole number

Answers

When you are given the side length and apothem of a regular polygon and asked for area, you are expected to use the formula

... A = (1/2)Pa

where P is the perimeter of the polygon, "a" is the apothem, and A is the area.

The only additional information you need is that a decagon has 10 sides, so its perimeter is 10×3.2 inches = 32 inches.

The area is ...

... A = (1/2)(32 in)(5 in)

... A = 80 in²

_____

Sometimes the dimensions of a problem like this don't quite add up. The geometry of a regular polygon means that the apothem can be found from the side length and vice versa. In this case, the side length of 3.2 inches means the apothem is about 4.92 inches; or the apothem of 5 inches means the side length is about 3.25 inches. Either way, the area is slightly different from that computed using the given numbers.

This is why I say you're expected to use the above formula. (You're not expected to think about it too much.)

There are a couple of different strategies you can employ to eliminate possibilities.

1. Since the equations involve fractions, you can look only at answers that deal well with the fractions. That is, look for x-values that are multiples of 3 and y-values that are multiples of 5. Right away, this suggests you are not interested in choices B and C.

2. You can look at the general nature of the equations to see where the lines lie on a graph. It can be handy to know that intercept form is ...

... x/a + y/b = 1

where a and b are the x- and y-intercepts, respectively. That is, you can divide by the constant on the right (or just pay attention to its sign) to check the signs of the intercepts. For the first equation, the intercepts are both negative. Hence there cannot be any 1st-quadrant solutions. (That line never goes through the first quadrant—eliminating choices C and D.)

Likewise, the intercepts for the second equation are both positive, so it will never go through the third quadrant—eliminating choice B.

An Uber fare in San Diego is $3.50 for the first ½ mile and additional mileage charged at a rate of $0.30 for each additional 0.1 mile. You plan to give the driver a $2 tip. How many miles can you ride for $15? Please show or explain your calculations.

Answers

Answer:

3.6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

For a trip of x miles, there are x-0.5 miles of it that are "additional", which makes (x-0.5)/0.1 additional tenths.

Then the charges (in dollars) are ...

... 3.50 + 0.30(x -0.5)/0.1

Adding a tip of $2 and requiring the total be less than $15 gives ...

... 3.50 + 0.30(x -0.5) + 2.00 ≤ 15.00

... 5.50 + 3(x - 0.5) ≤ 15.00 . . . . simplify a bit

... 4.00 +3x ≤ 15.00 . . . . . . . . . . simplify more

... 3x ≤ 11.00 . . . . . . subtract 4.00

a) Error: Moving the decimal point without changing the exponent changes the value of the number. The final number reported is different from the one computed.

b) Correct work: (see below)

... Correct solution: 1.035×10¹¹

Step-by-step explanation:

a) When the decimal point is moved to the left in the mantissa, its value is divided by 10 for each place the decimal point is moved. To keep the overall value of the number the same, the power of 10 must be increased to compensate. The increase in the exponent is the number of places the decimal point is moved left.

In this problem, the decimal point is moved 1 place left, so the exponent needs to be increased from 10 to 11.

Hey mate,

Answer is 1) y = 3/2x+3

Here is your Solution,

slope of line is,

m = {3 - ( -3 )} ÷ {0 - ( -4 )}
= (3+3)÷(0+4)
= 6/4

Therefore, m = 3/2

( Which is Satisfied by 1st Option )

Hope it Helped!

slope = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] and equation of line is

y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x + 3

calculate the slope m using the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = 2, 7 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 1, 3 )

m = [tex]\frac{3-7}{-1-2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-4}{-3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

calculate m using the gradient formula

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 4, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, 3 )

m = [tex]\frac{3+3}{0+4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

the line crosses the y-axis at (0, 3 ) hence c = 3

A survey of 80 students found that 24 students both play in a band and play a sport. But 22 students are not in band and do not play a sport. There are 48 students in the band. If being in band is the row variable and playing sports is the column variable, fill in the labels in the table.


Determine what each letter in the table should be to complete this two-way table.

b =
d =
f =
g =
h =

Answers

Answer:

b = 24

d = 10

f = 32

g = 34

h = 46

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given table we find that students who are in band = 48

So 24 + b = 48

b = 48 - 24

b = 24

Total students who do not play sports = h

And h = students in band + students not in band

h = b + 22

h = 24 + 22 = 46

h = 46

Total students who play sports and who do not play sports = 80

g + h = 80

g + 46 = 80

g = 80 - 46 = 34

g = 34

Total students who are not in band and not in band = 80

48 + f = 80

f = 80 - 48

f = 32

Students who are not in Band but either play sports or do not play sports = f

d + 22 = f

d + 22 = 32

d = 32 - 22 = 10

d = 10

Using the change of subject, the values of the alphabet b, d, f g, h calculated from the table are 24, 10, 32, 34, and 46 respectively.

To find b :

24 + b = total

24 + b = 48

b = 48 - 24

b = 24

To find h :

b + 22 = total

b + 22 = h

24 + 22 = 46

h = 46

To find g :

g + h = 80

g + 46 = 80

g = 80 - 46

g = 34

To find d :

24 + d = g

24 + d = 34

d = 34 - 24

d = 10

To find f :

d + 22 = f

10 + 22 = f

f = 32

Therefore, the values of b, d, f g, h are 24, 10, 32, 34, and 46 respectively.

Celine observed that 80% of patrons at the local library liked reading sci-fi novels. If 35 patrons did not like reading sci-fi novels, how many patrons did enjoy sci-fi novels?

Part A: Write an equation in one variable that can be used to find the total number of patrons at the library? Define the variable used in the equation.

Part B: How many patrons enjoy reading sci-fi novels? Show your work.

Answers

Part A. Let the total number of patrons be x. Then the number of patrons that liked reading sci-fi novels is x-35. Now

x-35 is 80%

35 is 100%-80%=20%.

Mathematically, you can write a proportion:

[tex]\dfrac{x-35}{80}=\dfrac{35}{20},\\ \\x-35=\dfrac{35\cdot 80}{20},\\\\x-35=140,\\\\x=175.[/tex]

Part B. The total nuber of patrons is 175, 35 did not like the sci-fi novels, then 140 liked.


Final answer:

To find the total number of library patrons, set up an equation using the given information. Then, solve the equation to determine the number of patrons who enjoy reading sci-fi novels.

Explanation:

Part A: Let's represent the total number of patrons at the library as 'x'. Since Celine observed that 80% of the patrons liked reading sci-fi novels, we can say that 80% of 'x' patrons enjoy reading sci-fi novels.

Therefore, the equation to find the total number of patrons can be written as: 0.8x = x - 35.

Part B: To find the number of patrons who enjoy reading sci-fi novels, we can solve the equation from Part A. First, let's simplify the equation: 0.8x = x - 35.

Then, we'll subtract 'x' from both sides of the equation: 0.8x - x = -35.

Combining like terms, we have: -0.2x = -35.

Finally, we'll divide both sides of the equation by -0.2 to solve for 'x': x = (-35)/(-0.2).

Plugging in the values, we get: x = 175. Therefore, there are 175 patrons who enjoy reading sci-fi novels.
