A step on a stairway is at least 8 inches high. What inequality should I write and solve to represent the minimum number of steps between floors that are 10 feet apart?

Answers

Answer 1
To answer this question you would consider that 10 feet equals 120 inches. If you show the 120 inches being broken into groups the size of 8 inches, this would be 15 total steps needed at the most. If the steps were any longer, the number of steps would decrease. I would represent all the possible solutions by writing an inequality that says 120/8 > x or x < 120/8 where x is the number of steps.

What is the volume of the rectangular prism, when the height is 10 1/2, the width is 2 3/4 and the base is 5?

A. 18 1/4
B. 28 7/8
C. 52 1/2
D. 144 3/8

Answers

The formula for distinguishing the volume of a rectangular prism is the Base being multiplied by the Height. In other words, the formula is:
V = Bh

Now, we need to substitute our values for each variable to solve for our volume.
V = 5 x 10.5; multiply the two numbers.
V = 52.5.

Your answer for this is "C.) 52 1/2" (as "52.5" is equivalent to "52 1/2").

5/8 of votes were blue,5/9 of remaining were for green and the remaining 48 votes were for red

Answers

To answer this you would need to first find out what 3/8 of the 5/9 would be. 3/8 would be the amount that remains after five eights were accounted for. The question says it is 5/9 of the remaining, and 3/8 of the total would be what remains. Multiply 3/8 by 5/9 to get 5/24. This represents the part that would be green. Then I added the original 5/8 for blueand 5/24 for green. The amount is 20/24, or 5/6. This represents the part that is green or blue. 1/6 would be the other color which is red. To find the total, you would solve 1/6x =48. To solve this divide 48 by 1/6. Keep change and invert your division problem. It would be 48×6. The answer is 288 total votes. You said check your work by multiplying 5/8 by 288. You get 180. 288-180=108. Multiply 5/9 by 108 to get 60. 108-60 is 48!!!

There were [tex]\(38\)[/tex] votes for blue and [tex]\(13\)[/tex] votes for green.

Let's break it down step by step:

1. Votes for Blue:

  Initially, [tex]\(5/8\)[/tex] of the votes were for blue. Let's denote the total number of votes as [tex]\(T\).[/tex]

  So, the number of votes for blue initially is [tex]\(5/8\) of \(T\)[/tex], which is [tex]\((5/8) \times T\)[/tex].

2. Remaining votes after blue:

  After blue votes are accounted for, the remaining votes are [tex]\(T - (5/8) \times T = (3/8) \times T\).[/tex]

3. Votes for Green:

  [tex]\(5/9\)[/tex] of the remaining votes are for green. So, the number of votes for green is [tex]\((5/9) \times (3/8) \times T\)[/tex].

4. Votes for Red:

  The remaining votes after blue and green are accounted for are 48 votes.

To find the solution, we need to set up equations based on the information given:

Equation 1: Votes for blue + Votes for green + Votes for red = Total votes

Equation 2: Votes for green = \(5/9\) of remaining votes

Equation 3: Votes for red = 48

Let's solve these equations:

Equation 1:

[tex]\[\frac{5}{8}T + \frac{5}{9} \times \frac{3}{8}T + 48 = T\][/tex]

Equation 2:

[tex]\[\frac{5}{9} \times \frac{3}{8}T = \frac{15}{72}T = \frac{5}{24}T\][/tex]

Now, let's substitute the value of [tex]\(T\)[/tex] from Equation 3 into Equation 1:

[tex]\[\frac{5}{8} \times \frac{48}{5} + \frac{5}{9} \times \frac{3}{8} \times \frac{48}{5} + 48 = \frac{48}{8} + \frac{15}{24} \times \frac{48}{5} + 48 = 6 + 3 \times 2 + 48 = 60\][/tex]

So, we have [tex]\(T = 60\).[/tex]

Now, let's find the number of votes for blue and green:

Votes for blue:

[tex]\[\frac{5}{8} \times 60 = 37.5\][/tex]

Votes for green:

[tex]\[\frac{5}{24} \times 60 = 12.5\][/tex]

Since we can't have half votes, we round 37.5 to 38 and 12.5 to 13.

So, there were [tex]\(38\)[/tex] votes for blue and [tex]\(13\)[/tex] votes for green.

The correct question is:

5/8 of the votes were for blue. 5/9 of the remaining votes were for green and the remaining 48 votes were for red. How many votes were for blue? How many votes were for green?

Option 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : d to the 7th power times g to the 13th power all over d to the 2nd power times g to the 7th power.

To find : The correct  simplification

Solution :

d to the 7th power = [tex]d^7[/tex]

g to the 13th power = [tex]g^{13}[/tex]

d to the 7th power times g to the 13th power =  [tex]d^7\times g^{13}[/tex]

d to the 2nd power = [tex]d^2[/tex]

g to the 7th power = [tex]g^7[/tex]

d to the 2nd power times g to the 7th power =  [tex]d^2\times g^{7}[/tex]

According to question,

d to the 7th power times g to the 13th power all over d to the 2nd power times g to the 7th power.

[tex]=\frac{d^7\times g^{13}}{d^2\times g^7}[/tex]

[tex]=d^{7-2}\times g^{13-7}[/tex]

[tex]=d^{5}\times g^{6}[/tex]

Therefore, Option 4 is correct.

A line with a slope of 3/2 passes through (4,-1). Write the equation.

Answers

Hey there!

We're going to write the equation for this line in slope-intercept form, y = mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. In order to write it in this form, as stated in the name, we need the slope and y-intercept. Since we have the slope given, we can use the points we have and set up that equation with the given slope to solve for b. We'll use the x and y values and throw them into the equation. We have:

-1 = 3/2(4) + b
-1 = 12/2 + b
-1 = 6 + 6
-6 = b

Now, since we have our slope and y-intercept, we can write our equation with these two values:

y = 3/2x - 6

Hope this helps!

we know that

the equation of the line in the form point-slope is equal to

[tex]y-y1=m*(x-x1)[/tex]

in this problem we have

[tex]point(4,-1)\\\\m=\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Substitute the values

[tex]y+1=\frac{3}{2}*(x-4)[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{3}{2}x-6-1\\\\y=\frac{3}{2}x-7[/tex]

therefore

the answer is

[tex]y=\frac{3}{2}x-7[/tex]

Answers

They want to know the probability of landing in the blue and red section at the same time. In other words, they want to know the probability of landing in the purple section.

We'll need the area of the purple square. This square is 1.5 inches by 1.5 inches. This is because 4 - 2.5 = 1.5

So the purple square has an area of 1.5*1.5 = 2.25 square inches

Divide this over the total area of the largest square (which is 9x9) to get 2.25/81 = 0.02777... where the 7's go on forever

Round that to two decimal places. The final answer is 0.03

Pat and Julie share some money in the ratio 2:5 Julie gets £45 more than pat how much money did pat get?

Answers

Final answer:

By setting up an equation based on the given ratio 2:5 and the additional information that Julie receives £45 more than Pat, we find that Pat received £30.

Explanation:

The question deals with understanding ratios and how they can be used to solve problems involving sharing amounts in specified proportions. Pat and Julie share some money in the ratio 2:5, and it's given that Julie gets £45 more than Pat. To approach this problem, let's designate the amount Pat receives as 2x and the amount Julie receives as 5x, where x is a common multiplier.

It is stated that Julie gets £45 more than Pat, which can be represented as 5x = 2x + 45.

Solving the equation for x gives us 3x = 45, hence x = 15.

To find out how much Pat received, we substitute x = 15 into 2x, giving us 2(15) = 30.

Therefore, Pat got £30.

You bring 18oz of shampoo for 3.99 or 24oz for 5.99 WICh is the better buy explain

Answers

18 oz for 3.99 = .22 per unit
24 oz for 5.99 = .25 per unit

the 18 oz bottle is the better buy because it costs less per unit than the 24 oz bottle.

Final answer:

To decide the better purchase between two sizes of shampoo, the cost per ounce is calculated, showing that the 18oz option at $0.22 per ounce is more economical than the 24oz option at $0.25 per ounce.

Explanation:

To determine which shampoo option is the better buy, we calculate the cost per ounce for each option. Cost per ounce is calculated by dividing the total cost of the product by the total number of ounces.

For the 18oz shampoo at $3.99, cost per ounce = $3.99 / 18oz = $0.22 per ounce.

For the 24oz shampoo at $5.99, cost per ounce = $5.99 / 24oz = $0.25 per ounce.

The 18oz shampoo at $0.22 per ounce is the better buy compared to the 24oz shampoo at $0.25 per ounce because you are paying less per ounce.

Base area would be a square of side length equal to 5 centimeters.

Area of square = (side)² = 5 × 5 = 25 squared centimeters.
