17/8 - 14/8 = 3/8ths
Answer 2

Answer:

Amount required is [tex]x=\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Cameron used [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] ounces of hydrochloric acid in one experiment. She used [tex]2\frac{1}{8}[/tex] ounces of the acid in a second experiment.

To find : How much more acid did Cameron use in the second experiment?

Solution :

In one experiment,

Cameron used [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] ounces of hydrochloric acid

i.e [tex]1\frac{3}{4}=\frac{7}{4}[/tex]

In second experiment,

She used [tex]2\frac{1}{8}[/tex] ounces of the acid.

i.e. [tex]2\frac{1}{8}=\frac{17}{8}[/tex]

Let x amount more she used then experiment 1 in experiment 2.

So, the equation became

[tex]\frac{7}{4}+x=\frac{17}{8}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{17}{8}-\frac{7}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{17-14}{8}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

Therefore, Amount required is [tex]x=\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

Hope i helped ^.^ Pls mark brainliest

Answer:

Angela's board is a rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know rectangle follow two properties.

1). All angles of a rectangle are right angle.

2). Opposite sides of a rectangle are equal in measure.

Since all angles of a rectangle are 90°. Therefore, right angle triangle formed by length, width and diagonal will follow Pythagoras theorem.

For Angela

20² + 21² = 841 = 29²

Therefore Angela's board is a rectangle.

For Bradley

9² + 9² = 162 ≈ 9²

So Bradley's board is not a rectangle.

For Carlton

25² + 30² = 1525 ≠ 35²

Carlton's board is not a rectangle.

For Della

10² + 12² = 244 ≠ 15²

Della's board is not a rectangle.

Therefore, Angela's board is a rectangle.

Find the area of the shaded regions. Give your answer as a completely simplified exact value in terms of π (no approximations).

Answers

Hello!

The formula for the area of a sector can be written as follows:

Area = [tex] \frac{1}{2} [/tex][tex]r^{2} [/tex](R)

In the above formula, “r” represents the radius while “R” represents the radian measure of a sector. The radius is given to us in the image above as 10 inches. However, we still need the radian measure of the two sectors. To find this measure, we can use the following conversion:

1 degree = [tex] \frac{pi}{180} [/tex] radians

Because the two sectors have a given measure of 72 degrees, we need to multiply both sides of the above conversion by 72:

72 degrees = [tex] \frac{72pi}{180} [/tex]

Reduce the fraction on the right side of the equation:

72 degrees = [tex] \frac{2pi}{5} [/tex]

We now have the radian measure of both sectors. Now simply insert this and any other known values into the “area of a sector” formula above:

Area = [tex] \frac{1}{2} [/tex][tex]10^{2} [/tex]([tex] \frac{2pi}{5} [/tex])

Simplify the right side of the equation to get the following answer:

Area = 20 pi

We have now proven that the area of one sector is equal to 20 pi.

If, however, you need the combined area of the two identical sectors, simply multiply the proven area by 2 to get a total area of 40 pi.

I hope this helps!

A work cell is scheduled to build 120 digital light processor (dlp) assemblies each week. these assemblies are later installed into home theater projection systems. the work cell has 7.5 hours of productive work each day, six days per week. what is takt time for this cell? express your answer in minutes rounded to one decimal place.

Answers

Work cell produces 120 digital light processors in a week. We want to find the time spent on each processor in minutes. So for this first we will find the total time spent on 120 processors in a week. 

Number of productive hours in a day = 7.5
Working days per week = 6
So, number of productive hours per week = 6 x 7.5 = 45 hours

1 hour = 60 minute

So,number of productive minutes per week = 45 x 60 = 2700 minutes

120 processors are produced in time = 2700 minutes

1 processor is produced in time = 2700/120 minutes = 22.5 minutes

So, it takes 22.5 minutes to produce one digital light processor

If a quantity you calculated has units of (kg*m^2)/(s^2*c), what is that quantity?

Answers

The units of the quantity are:
[tex] \frac{[kg] [m]^2}{[s]^2 [C]} [/tex]
We can isolate one [tex] \frac{[m]}{[s]^2} [/tex], which corresponds to an acceleration, a:
[tex]= \frac{[kg][m] a}{[C]} =[/tex]
[kg] corresponds to a mass, m; [m] corresponds to a length, L; C corresponds to a charge, Q:
[tex]= \frac{maL}{Q} [/tex]
But the product ma is a force, F:
[tex]= \frac{FL}{Q} [/tex]
and the product FL is a work, so an energy, U:
[tex]= \frac{U}{Q} [/tex]
and this ratio corresponds to an electrical potential. So, the quantity is an electrical potential.

Final answer:

The quantity with units of (kg*m²)/(s²*c) is closely related to the energy concept in physics, specifically within the framework of Einstein's mass-energy equivalence formula, E = mc², albeit with an added factor of the speed of light in the denominator.

Explanation:

The quantity with units of (kg*m^2)/(s^2*c) is related to the concept of mass-energy equivalence, as seen in Albert Einstein's famous equation, E = mc².

In this equation, E represents energy in joules, m represents mass in kilograms, and c represents the speed of light in meters per second.

The units of c² are m²/s², making the units of energy (when mass is given in kilograms) equivalent to kg*m²/s², or joules.

However, the specific units you mentioned, (kg*m²)/(s²*c), seem to incorporate an additional factor of the speed of light in the denominator, suggesting a possible deviation or specific application within the broader context of relativistic physics or energy conversions where the factor of c is explicitly considered.

Leslie is a biologist. She is going to randomly select one animal from her lab to study. There are 5 salamanders, 3 crayfish, and 12 minnows in her lab. What is \text{P(salamander}

Answers

Since there are a total of 20 animals (5+3+12) and there are 5 salamanders, the probability she chooses a salamander is 5/20 -> 1/4, 25%, or .25

The sample space contains three types of animals; 5 salamanders, 3 crayfish, and 12 minnows.

So population of sample space would be, n(S) = Salamanders + Crayfish + Minnows.

n(S) = 5 + 3 + 12 = 20.

She wants to randomly select an animal and check if it is Salamander or not.

population of favourable outcomes would be, n(salamander) = 5.

Now the probability for selecting a salamander would be :-

[tex]P(salamander) = \frac{n(salamander)}{n(S)} \\\\ P(salamander) = \frac{5}{20} \\\\ P(salamander) = \frac{1}{4} \;or\; 0.25 \;or\; 25\%[/tex]

Describe how you could draw a diagram for a problem about finding the total length for two strings, 15 inches long and 7 inches long

Answers

Two strings are 15 inches and 7 inches long.

You could draw a diagram that has two rulers (that are longer than 12 inches).

Draw a piece of string that is exactly 15 inches on one ruler.
Draw another piece of string on the other ruler at exactly 7 inches.

Then you can find the total length of the two strings by adding 15 and 7 inches.
15 + 7 = 22

The total length of both the strings is 22 inches. You can draw a ruler and a piece of string on it at 22 inches.

A professor teaching a discrete math course gives a multiple-choice quiz that has ten questions, each with four possible responses: a, b, c,
d. what is the minimum number of students that must be in the professor's class in order to guarantee that at least three answer sheets must be identical? (assume that no answers are left blank.)3

Answers

Each question has three possible distinct answers.
Ten questions have 3^10 possible distinct answers sheets.
=>
(3^10)+3 will guarantee that at least 3 answer sheets are identical.

Numerically, 
(3^10)+3 = 59049 +3 = 59052

The correct minimum number of students required to guarantee that at least three answer sheets must be identical is 5.

To solve this problem, we can use the pigeonhole principle. The pigeonhole principle states that if you have more pigeons than pigeonholes, at least one pigeonhole must contain more than one pigeon.

In this scenario, each question can be thought of as a pigeonhole, with the possible answers (a, b, c, d) as the pigeons. Since there are four possible answers for each question, we have four pigeonholes for each of the ten questions.

Now, let's consider the number of students (pigeons) and the number of unique answer sheets (pigeonholes). We want to find the minimum number of students such that at least three of them have identical answer sheets.

For two students, there are [tex]\(4^{10}\)[/tex] possible combinations of answers for the ten questions. For three students, the number of possible combinations of answers is [tex]\(4^{10} \times 4^{10}\)[/tex]. In general, for [tex]\(n\)[/tex] students, the number of possible combinations is [tex]\(4^{10} \times 4^{10} \times \ldots \times 4^{10}\) (\(n\) times)[/tex].

We need to find the smallest [tex]\(n\)[/tex] such that the number of combinations exceeds the number of ways to distribute the answer sheets without having three identical ones.

The number of ways to distribute the answer sheets without having three identical is given by the sum of the combinations of choosing 1, 2, ...,[tex]\(n-1\)[/tex] students out of [tex]\(n\)[/tex] to have unique answer sheets, and then multiplying by [tex]\(4^{10}\)[/tex] for each unique combination. This is because we are allowing for the possibility that some students have the same answer sheets, but not more than two.

The sum is given by:

[tex]\[ \binom{n}{1} \times 4^{10} + \binom{n}{2} \times 4^{10} + \ldots + \binom{n}{n-1} \times 4^{10} \][/tex]

We want to find the smallest [tex]\(n\)[/tex] such that:

[tex]\[ \binom{n}{1} \times 4^{10} + \binom{n}{2} \times 4^{10} + \ldots + \binom{n}{n-1} \times 4^{10} < 4^{10n} \][/tex]

For [tex]\(n = 4\)[/tex], we have:

[tex]\[ \binom{4}{1} \times 4^{10} + \binom{4}{2} \times 4^{10} + \binom{4}{3} \times 4^{10} = 4 \times 4^{10} + 6 \times 4^{10} + 4 \times 4^{10} = 14 \times 4^{10} \][/tex]

For [tex]\(n = 5\)[/tex], we have:

[tex]\[ \binom{5}{1} \times 4^{10} + \binom{5}{2} \times 4^{10} + \binom{5}{3} \times 4^{10} + \binom{5}{4} \times 4^{10} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ = 5 \times 4^{10} + 10 \times 4^{10} + 10 \times 4^{10} + 5 \times 4^{10} = 30 \times 4^{10} \][/tex]

Now, we compare [tex]\(30 \times 4^{10}\) with \(4^{10 \times 5}\)[/tex]. Since [tex]\(4^{10 \times 5}\)[/tex] is much larger than[tex]\(30 \times 4^{10}\)[/tex], we can see that for [tex]\(n = 5\)[/tex], the number of possible combinations exceeds the number of ways to distribute the answer sheets without having three identical ones.

Therefore, the minimum number of students required to guarantee that at least three answer sheets must be identical is 5.

The average number of mosquitoes in a stagnant pond is 70 per square meter with a standard deviation of 8 per square meter. if one square meter of the pond is chosen at random for a mosquito count, find the probability that the average of the count is more than 68 mosquitoes per square meter. assume that the variable is normally distributed.

Answers

the probability that the average of the count is more than 68 mosquitoes per square meter. assuming that the variable is normally distributed will be calculated as follows:
z=(x-μ)/σ
where:
x=68
μ=70
σ=8
thus
z=(68-70)/8=-0.25

P(x>68)=1-P(x<68)=1-P(z<-0.25)
=1-0.4013
=0.5987

Answer: P(x>68)=0.5987

The probability that the average mosquito count in a randomly chosen square meter of the pond is more than 68 mosquitoes is approximately 59.87%.

To find the probability that the average count of mosquitoes in a randomly chosen square meter of the pond is more than 68 mosquitoes per square meter, we can use the normal distribution properties.

Given:

Mean (">"): 70 mosquitoes per square meterStandard deviation (σ): 8 mosquitoes per square meter

We need to find P(X > 68). To do this, we convert the raw score to a Z-score using the formula:

Z = (X - μ) / σ

Substitute the given values:

Z = (68 - 70) / 8 = -2 / 8 = -0.25

Next, we need to find the probability corresponding to Z > -0.25 using the standard normal distribution table.

Looking up Z = -0.25, we find the cumulative probability (P(Z < -0.25)) is approximately 0.4013.

To find P(Z > -0.25):

P(Z > -0.25) = 1 - P(Z < -0.25) = 1 - 0.4013 = 0.5987

Therefore, the probability that the average mosquito count in a randomly chosen square meter is more than 68 mosquitoes per square meter is approximately 0.5987 or 59.87%.

the bill for a meal came to £65.40 plus 15% service charge what was the total bill?

Answers

Final answer:

To find the total bill including the service charge, multiply the original meal cost by 15% to calculate the service charge. Then, add this to the original meal cost to get the total of £75.21.

Explanation:

The question involves Mathematics as it requires calculating the total bill including the service charge which is essentially calculating a percentage of the original amount. To determine the total amount to be paid, one must first calculate the 15% service charge on the £65.40 meal and add it to the original amount. The service charge is calculated by converting the percentage to a decimal and multiplying it by the meal cost: 0.15 × £65.40.

Let's do the calculation:

Find the service charge: 0.15 × £65.40 = £9.81Add the service charge to the original bill: £65.40 + £9.81 = £75.21

The total bill after adding the 15% service charge to the £65.40 meal cost is £75.21.

Circle 1 is centered at (-4, 5) and has a radius of 2 centimeters. Circle 2 is centered at (2, 1) and has a radius of 6 centimeters. What transformations can be applied to circle 1 to prove that the circles are similar? The circles are similar because you can translate circle 1 using the transformation rule ( x, x) and then dilate it using a scale factor of ( ).

Answers

we know that
Figures can be proven similar if one, or more, similarity transformations (reflections, translations, rotations, dilations) can be found that map one figure onto another. 
In this problem to prove circle 1 and circle 2 are similar, a translation and a scale factor (from a dilation) will be found to map one circle onto another.

we have that
 

Circle 1 is centered at (-4, 5) and has a radius of 2 centimeters
Circle 2 is centered at (2, 1) and has a radius of 6 centimeters

step 1
Move the center of the circle 1 onto the center of the circle 2
the transformation has the following rule
(x,y)--------> (x+6,y-4)
so
(-4,5)------> (-4+6,5-4)-----> (2,1)
so
center circle 1 is now equal to center circle 2 
The circles are now concentric (they have the same center)

step 2
A dilation is needed to increase the size of circle 1 to coincide with circle 2

scale factor=radius circle 2/radius circle 1-----> 6/2----> 3

radius circle 1 will be=2*scale factor-----> 2*3-----> 6 cm
radius circle 1 is now equal to radius circle 2 

A translation, followed by a dilation will map one circle onto the other, thus proving that the circles are similar


the answer is

The circles are similar because you can translate circle 1 using the transformation rule ( x+6,y-4) and then dilate it using a scale factor of (3 )

so, the one with less $/oz is the better deal, because is less bucks per ounce.

41 packages are randomly selected from packages received by a parcel service. the sample has a mean weight of 20.6 pounds and a standard deviation of 3.2 pounds. what is the best pint estimate for a confidence interval estimating the true mean weight, μ, of all packages received by the parcel service? answer: _____pounds

Answers

Final answer:

The best point estimate for the true mean weight of all packages received by a parcel service, given a sample mean of 20.6 pounds and a standard deviation of 3.2 pounds, is 20.6 pounds.

Explanation:

In this problem, we are given that a sample of 41 packages were randomly selected. This sample provided a mean weight of 20.6 pounds and a standard deviation of 3.2 pounds. It is asked what the best point estimate for a confidence interval estimating the true mean weight of all packages is.

The best estimate of the true mean weight (µ) of all packages would be the mean of the sample that was taken, assuming that the sample was randomly selected and is representative of the entire population. This is due to the fact that in statistics, the sample mean is the best point estimate of the population mean.

Therefore, the best point estimate for the true mean weight of all the packages received by the parcel service is 20.6 pounds.

Tory plans to enter the path at mile marker 1 and hike for 4 miles. Tory is a beginner hiker, so he wants to choose the path that is less steep on average.

Which path should he choose? Why?

Answers

If you need help visualizing this, you might draw vertical lines at distance = 1 and at distance = 5. Look at the points where those lines cross f(x). The vertical difference is perhaps 350 ft. Look at where the lines cross g(x). That vertical distance may be about 200 ft.

The vertical change from 1 to 5 is considerably less for g(x) than for f(x).
