Answer: She bought about 150 markers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A teacher bought 15 boxes of markers.
i.e. Total boxes of markers = 15
Each box contained 8 markers.
That is , the estimated number of markers in each box = 10 [∵ 8≈10 [Round to the nearest tens]]
Now , the total number of markers in all 15 boxes of markers = (15) x (10)
= 150
Hence, she bought about 150 markers.
The distribution of number of hours worked by volunteers last year at a large hospital is approximately normal with mean 80 and standard deviation 7. Volunteers in the top 20 percent of hours worked will
receive a certificate of merit. If a volunteer from last year is selected at random, which of the following is closest to the probability that the volunteer selected will receive a certificate of merit given that the
number of hours the volunteer worked is less than 90?
A 0.077
B 0.123
C 0 0.618
D 0.618
E 0.923
Answer:
B. 0.123
Step-by-step explanation:
You want the probability that hours are in the top 20% of a normal distribution with µ = 80 and σ = 7, if the number of hours worked is less than 90.
Z-scoresThe number of hours will be in the top 20% if it exceeds the 80th percentile. That value is found using the inverse normal distribution.
P(Z) > 0.8 ⇒ Z ≈ 0.8416
The Z-score associated with 90 hours is ...
Z = (X -µ)/σ = (90 -80)/7 ≈ 1.4286
ProbabilityThen the probability of interest is ...
P(0.8416 < Z < 1.4286) ≈ 0.1234
The probability the volunteer will receive a certificate is about 0.123, choice B.
__
Additional comment
We have found the probability indicated above, which matches one of the answer choices. The wording of the question suggests that a conditional probability is needed:
P(Z>0.8416 | Z<1.4286) . . . hours in top 20% given they are less than 90
That value would be ...
P(Z>0.8416 | Z<1.4286) = P(0.8416 < Z < 1.4286) / P(Z < 1.4286)
P(Z>0.8416 | Z<1.4286) = 0.1234/0.9234 ≈ 0.134

Answer:
√36 = 6
³√ 5 = 5 ^ ⅓
⁴√ 16 = 16 ^ ¼
= 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Mathematically, the square of a number, is the power of 2 to the base of that number, or the exponent 2 to the base of that number.
Such as :
The Square of 5.
=5²
= 5*5 = 25.
In thesame vain, the SQUARE of a number is to the power 2 of that number.
Hence, the SQUARE ROOT, of any number is the ROOT 2 , to that number. Such that:
Square roots of 5:
√5
= 5 ^½
√12
= 12 ^ ½
√36
= 36 ^ ½
= 6
For other expression other than 2, the rational expression will be a function of the value before the root.
Such that:
1. ³√5 = 5 ^ ⅓
2. ³√ 12 = 12 ^ ⅓
3. ³√8 = 8 ^ ⅓ = 2
4. ⁴√ 16 = 16 ^ ¼ = 2
5. ⁴√24 = 24 ^ ¼
The other goes on and on in that order

victor wants to buy fertilizer for his yard. the yard measures 45 feet by 50 feet. the directions on the bag of fertilizer says that one bag will cover 1,220 sq ft. how many bags of fertilizer should victor buy to be sure that he cover the entire yard
Answer:
He'll need 2 bags to cover his yard.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem we first need to calculate the area of Victor's yard. It seemes by the dimmensions given that his yard have a rectangular shape, it's area is given by:
yard area = length*width
yard area = 45*50 = 2250 square feet
Since each bag will cover 1220 square feet, to calculate how many bags are needed for his yeard we need to divide the yard's area by the area each bag can cover. This is shown below:
number of bags = yard area/ bag area = 2250/1220 =1.84
Since he can't buy 0.84 bags we will round the number of bags to 2.

There are cars, trucks, and motorcycles in our company parking lot. The ratio of cars to trucks to motorcycles is $4:3:2.$ If there are $42$ cars and trucks total, how many motorcycles are there?
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of cars to trucks to motorcycles is $4:3:2.
If there are $42$ cars and trucks total,
To get how many motorcycles are there
Sum up the ratio of cars and trucks 4:3= 4+3 = 7
Sum up the ratio of cars and trucks and motorcycles
4+3+2 =9
Let the total number of cars and trucks and motorcycles be represented as A
The total number of cars and trucks in the question is 42
(7/9) x A = 42
7A/9 = 42
cross multiply
7A = 42×9 = 378
A= 378/7 = 54
The total number of cars and trucks and motorcycles is 54
To get the number of motorcycles can be calculated through
a. The total number of cars and trucks and motorcycles subtracted by the number of cars and trucks = 54-42=12 or use the ratio which is
2/9 × 54 = 2×6=12
Identify the fallacies of relevance and weak induction committed by the following arguments. If no fallacy is committed, write "no fallacy." Todd Burpo, the best-selling author, argues in his book that heaven is real and that his son Colton met Jesus and John the Baptist in a near-death experience. But it’s clear that Burpo says these things only to sell lots of books. Therefore, his arguments have no merit.
The argument discrediting Todd Burpo uses an ad hominem fallacy and a fallacy of weak induction called circumstantial ad hominem, focusing on Burpo's potential financial gain instead of the validity of his claims.
The argument presented commits a couple of logical fallacies.
Firstly, it commits the ad hominem fallacy, which is a type of fallacy of relevance.
This fallacy occurs when the arguer attacks the person making the argument instead of the argument itself.
In this case, discrediting Todd Burpo because he has a financial motivation does not address the actual content of his claims about heaven.
Secondly, there's a fallacy of weak induction known as circumstantial ad hominem.
Here, the suggestion is that Burpo’s circumstances (wanting to sell books), rather than evidence, make his claims unworthy of consideration, which is an insufficient basis to deny the merits of his arguments.
While the argument does not prove the existence of a supernatural deity, dismissing it because of the author's potential financial gain uses inappropriate grounds that do not speak to the truth or falsity of the actual claim, thus making it an invalid critique.
The burden of proof demands that a claim be established through reason and evidence, and this fallacy does not appropriately engage with either.

x = x equals negative 5 plus or minus the square root of seventeen all over 2
Answer:
A. x equals 5 plus or minus the square root of thirty-three all over 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's move all the terms to one side:
[tex]x^2=5x+2[/tex]
[tex]x^2-5x-2=0[/tex]
Now, we want to use the quadratic formula, which states that for a quadratic equation of the form [tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex], the roots can be found with the equation: [tex]x=\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}[/tex] or [tex]x=\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}[/tex].
Here, a = 1, b = -5, and c = -2, so plug these in:
[tex]x=\frac{-(-5)+\sqrt{(-5)^2-4(1)(-2)} }{2(1)}=x=\frac{5+\sqrt{25+8} }{2}=\frac{5+\sqrt{33} }{2}[/tex]
OR
[tex]x=\frac{-(-5)-\sqrt{(-5)^2-4(1)(-2)} }{2(1)}=x=\frac{5-\sqrt{25+8} }{2}=\frac{5-\sqrt{33} }{2}[/tex]
Thus, the answer is A.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
First one:
x = x equals 5 plus or minus the square root of thirty-three all over 2
Step-by-step explanation:
x² = 5x + 2
x² - 5x - 2 = 0
Using quadratic formula:
x = [-(-5) +/- sqrt[(-5)² - 4(1)(-2)]/2(1)
x = [5 +/- sqrt(33)]/2
Find the perimeter and the area of the shape
5cm
6cm
7cm
8cm
Perimeter = [perimeter] cm
Area = (area] cm
The perimeter of the trapezoid is 26cm. Using the formula, the area is approximately 47.92cm², rounded to two decimal places.
To find the perimeter and area of the given shape, we first need to determine what type of shape it is. From the given measurements (5cm, 6cm, 7cm, and 8cm), it seems like a quadrilateral, specifically a trapezoid, as the lengths are not all equal.
To calculate the perimeter of the trapezoid, we simply add the lengths of all four sides:
Perimeter = 5cm + 6cm + 7cm + 8cm = 26cm
Now, to find the area of the trapezoid, we can use the formula:
Area = (1/2) × (sum of parallel sides) × (height)
First, let's determine the height of the trapezoid. Since it's not given directly, we can use the formula for the height of a trapezoid:
[tex]\[h = \sqrt{a^2 - (\frac{1}{2}(b_1 - b_2))^2}\][/tex]
Where:
- (a) and (b_1, b_2) are the lengths of the trapezoid's legs and bases, respectively.
Let's plug in the values:
[tex]\[h = \sqrt{6^2 - (\frac{1}{2}(8 - 5))^2}\][/tex]
[tex]\[h = \sqrt{36 - (\frac{1}{2}(3))^2}\][/tex]
[tex]\[h = \sqrt{36 - \frac{9}{4}}\][/tex]
[tex]\[h = \sqrt{\frac{135}{4}}\][/tex]
[tex]\[h = \frac{\sqrt{135}}{2}\][/tex]
Now, we can calculate the area using the formula:
[tex]\[Area = \frac{1}{2} \times (5 + 8) \times \frac{\sqrt{135}}{2}\][/tex]
[tex]\[Area = \frac{13}{2} \times \frac{\sqrt{135}}{2}\][/tex]
[tex]\[Area = \frac{13\sqrt{135}}{4}\][/tex]
So, the perimeter of the trapezoid is 26cm and the area is[tex]\(\frac{13\sqrt{135}}{4} cm^2\).[/tex]

You have one type of nut that sells for $3.00/lb and another type of nut that sells for $5.40/lb. You would like to have 7.2 lbs of a nut mixture that sells for $4.60/lb. How much of each nut will you need to obtain the desired mixture?
Answer: 2.4 pounds of the type of nut that sells for $3.00/lb and 4.8 pounds of the type of nut that sells for $5.40/lb would be needed.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of pounds of the type of nut that sells for $3.00/lb that you would need.
Let y represent the number of pounds of the type of nut that sells for $5.40/lb that you would need.
You would like to have 7.2 lbs of a nut mixture. It means that
x + y = 7.2
The mixture would sell for $4.60/lb. It means that the cost of the mixture would be
4.6 × 7.2 = $33.12
This means that
3x + 5.4y = 33.12- - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 7.2 - y Intl equation 1, it becomes
3(7.2 - y) + 5.4y = 33.12
21.6 - 3y + 5.4y = 33.12
- 3y + 5.4y = 33.12 - 21.6
2.4y = 11.52
y = 11.52/2.4
y = 4.8
x = 7.2 - y = 7.2 - 4.8
x = 2.4
Mr. Smith started his own business making sweatshirts. It costs him $15 for the sweatshirt, $3 for the designs, and $.50 for delivery. If he sells the sweatshirts for $26 in his store, what is the return on investment on each sweatshirt?
Answer:
$7.5 is the ROI on each sweatshirt
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are asked to calculate ROI for a businessman who sells sweatshirts.
To calculate the profit we need to subtract the total cost incurred form manufacture to delivery and subtract bogus from the cost at which he sells the shirts.
Mathematically let’s calculate the cost from production to delivery.
That would be ;
$15 + $3 + $0.5 = $18.5
sales price is $26
His ROI will be $26 - $18.5 = $7.5

Beth needs to fertilize her flowerbed, which is in the shape of a regular pentagon. A bag of fertilizer states that it can fertilize up to 150 square feet, but Beth is not sure how many bags of fertilizer she should buy. Each side of the pentagon is 15 feet long
Answer: he should buy 3 bags
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to determine the area of the flower bed which has the shape of a Pentagon, we would apply the formula for determining the area of a polygon which is expressed as
Area = (perimeter × apotherm)/2
The apotherm is the perpendicular distance from the center of the polygon. The formula for determining the apotherm is
Apotherm = S/2tan(180/n)
Where
S = side length of the polygon
n = number of sides of the polygon.
From the information given,
S = 15 feet
n = 5
Apotherm = 15/2tan(180/5) = 10.3 ft
Perimeter = side length × number of sides
Perimeter = 15 × 5 = 75 ft
Therefore,
Area of the Pentagon = 75 × 10.3/2 = 386.25 ft²
A bag of fertilizer states that it can fertilize up to 150 square feet. Therefore, the number of bags that he can buy is
386.25/150 = 2.575 bags
He should buy approximately 3 bags
