Answer: [tex]\frac{3}{8}\ kg[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The table attached is part of the exercise (Without the table the question was incomplete).
We know that the cost of 1 kilogram of Chihuahua cheese is 78 and the Chihuhua cheese bought the day before cost 195.
The first step is to calculate the amount of cheese bought with 195:
[tex]\frac{195}{78}=\frac{5}{2}\ kg[/tex]
Now, we need to add the fractions provided in the table (This table shows the amount of cheese that was used in that day). Then:
[tex]\frac{1}{2}\ kg+\frac{7}{8}\ kg+\frac{3}{4}\ kg=\frac{17}{8}\ kg[/tex]
Finally, in order to find what fraction of Chihuahua cheese is left, we must subtract [tex]\frac{5}{2}\ kg[/tex] and [tex]\frac{17}{8}\ kg[/tex]:
[tex]\frac{5}{2}\ kg-\frac{17}{8}\ kg=\frac{3}{8}\ kg[/tex]

For some constants a and b let \[f(x) = \left\{ \begin{array}{cl} 9 - 2x & \text{if } x \le 3, \\ ax + b & \text{if } x > 3. \end{array} \right.\]The function f has the property that f(f(x)) = x for all x. What is a + b?
Answer:
The value of a+b is 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given function is
[tex]\[f(x) = \left\{ \begin{array}{cl} 9 - 2x & \text{if } x \le 3, \\ ax + b & \text{if } x > 3. \end{array} \right.\][/tex]
It is given that for some constants a and b the function f has the property that f(f(x))=x for all x.
For x≤3,
[tex]f(x)=9-2x[/tex]
For x>3,
[tex]f(x)=ax+b[/tex]
At x=0,
[tex]f(0)=9-2(0)=9[/tex]
[tex]f(f(0))=f(9)\Rightarrow a(9)+b=9a+b[/tex]
Using property f(f(x))=x,
[tex]f(f(0))=0[/tex]
[tex]9a+b=0[/tex] .... (1)
At x=1,
[tex]f(1)=9-2(1)=7[/tex]
[tex]f(f(1))=f(7)\Rightarrow a(7)+b=7a+b[/tex]
Using property f(f(x))=x,
[tex]f(f(1))=1[/tex]
[tex]7a+b=1[/tex] .... (2)
Subtract equation (2) from equation (1).
[tex]9a+b-(7a+b)=0-1[/tex]
[tex]2a=-1[/tex]
Divide both sides by 2.
[tex]a=-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Substitute this value in equation (1).
[tex]9(-\frac{1}{2})+b=0[/tex]
[tex]b=\frac{9}{2}[/tex]
The value of a is [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex] and value of b is [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex]. The value of a+b is
[tex]a+b=-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{9}{2}[/tex]
[tex]a+b=4[/tex]
Therefore the value of a+b is 4.
Find the domain and range, graph
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
An way to identify the domain and range of functions is by using graphs. Because the domain refers to the set of possible input values, the domain of a graph consists of all the input values shown on the x-axis. The range is the set of possible output values, which are shown on the y-axis.
Two boats leave port at the same time. One goes west and the other south. The speed of the southbound boat is 5 mph more than the westbound boat. After 3 hours the boats are 27 miles apart. Find the speed of the southbound boat. Round to the nearest tenth of a mile per hour.
Westbound boats speed = X
Southbound boats speed = X + 5
In 3 hours they are 27 miles apart:
3X + 3(x+5) = 27
Simplify:
3x + 3x +15 = 27
Combine like terms:
6x + 15 = 27
Subtract 15 from both sides:
6x = 12
Divide both sides by 6:
x = 12/6
x = 2
Westbound was 2 miles per hour
Southbound was 2 +5 = 7 miles per hour
Check:
2 miles per hour x 3 hours = 6 miles
7 miles per hour x 3 hours = 21 miles
21 + 6 = 27 miles
Express the confidence interval 0.333 < p < 0.777 in the form p +/- E.
Answer:
p= 0.555 ; E= 0.222; then we have 0.555 +/- 0.222
Step-by-step explanation:
The confidence interval goes from 0.333 to 0.777.
To find the p, we need to locate the median of that series of numbers.
The median is 0.555 as is the middle value of that interval.
Now the E corresponds to the deviation or the Error that we can measure.
And since we know that our variance ranges between 0.333 and 0.777, we can sustract 0.333 to p and we can get 0.222. We can also check if we add 0.222 to p, and we can get 0.777.
There is a 0.9986 probability that a randomly selected 33-year-old male lives through the year. A life insurance company charges $182 for insuring that the male will live through the year. If the male does not survive the year, the policy pays out $110 comma 000 as a death benefit. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.
Answer:
Expected Value = -$42 (loss of 42 dollars)
Step-by-step explanation:
Complete Question Below:
"There is a 0.9986 probability that a randomly selected 33-year-old male lives through the year. A life insurance company charges $182 for insuring that the male will live through the year. If the male does not survive the year, the policy pays out $110 comma 000 as a death benefit. If a 33-year-old male purchases the policy, what is his expected value?"
We can say P(survival) = 0.9986 and thus P(not survival) = 1 - P(survival) = 1-0.9986 = 0.0014
Also,
In case 33 year old doesn't live, the payment would be 100,000 - 182 = $99,818
And
In case 33 year old lives, the payment is
-$182
We know, the expected value is the sum of the product of each possibility with its probability.
[tex]ExpectedValue=\Sigma x*p(x)=(99818)(0.0014)+(-182)(0.9986)=-42[/tex]
This means a loss of $42 (or -$42)
Kenya plans to make a down payment plus monthly payments in order to buy a motorcycle. At one dealer she would pay $2,350 down and $175 each month. At another dealer, she would pay $2,850 down and $150 each month. After how many months would the total amount paid be the same for both dealers? What would that amount be?
Answer:
20 months
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of months. The cost equation for each dealer is the total of the down payment and the total monthly contribution. Thus,
Deal 1 cost = $2,350 + $175x
Dealer 2 cost =$2,850 + $150x
The number of months after which the costs from both dealers are equal is calculated by equating the costs for both dealers. Therefore,
$2,350 + $175x = $2,850 + $150x
$175x -$150x =$2,850 -$2,350
$25x =$500
x= $500/$25
x = 20 months

Answer:
east 95 kmsouth 89 kmStep-by-step explanation:
SOH CAH TOA can remind you of the relationships between triangle measures. The distance east is the side of the right triangle that is opposite the angle, so is related to the hypotenuse (ship's travel distance) by the sine function.
sin(43°) = (travel distance)/(distance east)
So, ...
(distance east) = (travel distance)·sin(43°)
Likewise, the cosine function can be used to find the distance south.
Then we have ...
east = (130 km)sin(43°) ≈ 95 km
south = (130 km)cos(43°) ≈ 89 km

To simplify an algebraic expression, eliminate denominators, distribute factors, rearrange and combine like terms, and isolate the variable. Checking the reasonableness of the answer is also important after simplification.
Explanation:To simplify an algebraic expression or equation involving variables, you should first look at what needs to be solved for and then work the problem out using only variables. This helps in minimizing calculation time and reducing the chance of errors. Here are some steps to simplify algebraic expressions:
Eliminate denominators by multiplying through by the Least Common Denominator.Remove parentheses by distributing any factors outside the parentheses through the terms inside.Get all variable terms on one side of the equation by adding or subtracting them.Combine like terms or factor out the variable if it appears in more than one term to simplify further.Isolate the variable (solve for the variable) using multiplication or division as needed.Additionally, by variable rescaling and setting some limits for the error margin, you can further simplify the algebra by eliminating as many parameters as possible. Always check your final answer to ensure it's reasonable.

[tex]\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{8} = ?[/tex] ;
Change "(1/4)" to: "(?/8)" ;
What is "(?)" ? ;
→ (1/4) = (?/8) ;
notice the denominators;
(1/4) = (?/8) ; In the first fraction, how does the "denominator", "4" ; turn to "8" ? Specifically, since we dealing with "fractions", what number do we multiply "4" by, to get: "8" ??? ;
→ " 4 * ? = 8 " ?? ;
→ " 8 ÷ 4 = ? " ;
= 2 ;
______________________________________________
so " 1/4 = ?/8 " ;
Since we multiply the denominator, "4" ; by "2" , to get:
"8" (the denominator in the other fraction);
we multiply the numerator, "1" ; by "2" ; to get:
"2" (the denominator in the other fraction):
______________________________________________
→ " [tex]\frac{1}{4} = \frac{(1*2)}{(4*2)} = \frac{2}{8}[/tex] ;
______________________________________________
Now, the amount of the pizza that "you" ate is: "(2/8)" ;
The amount of the pizza eaten by "your dog" is: "(1/8)" ;
Let's add up the amount of pizza eaten:
[tex]\frac{2}{8} + \frac{1}{8} = \frac{(2+1)}{8} = \frac{3}{8}[/tex] .
The total amount of the pizza would be: " [tex]\frac{8}{8}[/tex] " .
Note: " [tex]\frac{8}{8}[/tex] = 8 ÷ 8 = 1 whole [pizza].
To find the amount left over, subtract the amount eaten; "(3/8)" ; from the whole pizza; "(8/8)" ; as follows:
______________________________________________
→ [tex]\frac{8}{8} - \frac{3}{8} = \frac{(8-3)}{8} = \frac{5}{8}[/tex] .
______________________________________________
Now, the question asks, what percent is left over? ;
So, we convert "(5/8)" into a percentage;
Change "(5/8)" to: "(?/100)" ;
→ Notice the denominators;
(5/8) = (?/100) ; In the first fraction, how does the "denominator", "8" ; turn to "100" ? Specifically, since we dealing with "fractions", what number do we multiply "8" by, to get: "100" ??? ;
→ " 8 * ? = 100 " ?? ;
→ " 100 ÷ 8 = ? " ;
= 12.5 ;
______________________________________________
so " 5/8 = ?/100 " ;
Since we multiply the denominator, "8" ; by "12.5" , to get:
"100" (the denominator in the other fraction);
we multiply the numerator, "5" ; by "12.5" ; to get:
"2" (the denominator in the other fraction):
______________________________________________
→ " [tex]\frac{5}{8} = \frac{(5*12.5)}{(100*12.5)} = \frac{62.5}{100}[/tex] ;
______________________________________________
→ [tex]\frac{62.5}{100} = 62.5 % .

The function f(x) = (x − 4)(x − 2) is shown. On a coordinate plane, a parabola opens up. It goes through (2, 0), has a vertex at (3, negative 1), and goes through (4, 0). What is the range of the function? All real numbers less than or equal to 3 all real numbers less than or equal to −1 all real numbers greater than or equal to 3 all real numbers greater than or equal to −1
Answer: all real numbers greater than it equal to negative one.
Step-by-step explanation: if you graph this equation you see that the vertex is at (3,-1). We know that Range is all possible Y values.so, By looking at their graph we can see that the lowest point it touches is at -1. The rest of the graph goes off into positive and negative infinity.
Range= Y is greater than it equal to -1.
Answer:
All real numbers greater than or equal to −1
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, the given parabola,
[tex]f(x) = (x-4)(x-2)[/tex]
[tex]f(x) = x^2-4x-2x + 8[/tex]
[tex]f(x) = x^2 - 6x+8[/tex]
∵ Leading term = positive
So, the parabola is upward.
We know that an upward parabola is minimum at its vertex
Or it gives minimum output value at its vertex.
for instance, If (h, k) is the vertex of an upward parabola,
then its range = { x : x ≥ k, x ∈ R }
Note : Range = set of all possible output values
We have given,
Vertex = (3, -1)
Hence, Range = all real numbers greater than or equal to −1

Wayne is hanging a string of lights 58 feet long around the three sides of his patio, which is adjacent to his house. The length of his patio, the side along the house, is 6 feet longer than twice its width. Find the length and width of the patio.
Answer:
The length of the patio is 32 ft and the width is 13 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
Let
L ----> the length of his patio
W ---> the width of his patio
we know that
[tex]L+2W=58[/tex] ----> equation A
[tex]L=2W+6[/tex] ----> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A and solve for W
[tex]2W+6+2W=58[/tex]
[tex]4W+6=58[/tex]
[tex]4W=58-6[/tex]
[tex]4W=52[/tex]
[tex]W=13\ ft[/tex]
Find the value of L
[tex]L=2W+6[/tex] ----> [tex]L=2(13)+6=32\ ft[/tex]
therefore
The length of the patio is 32 ft and the width is 13 ft
The required patio length(L) = 32 and width(w) = 13.
Given that,
Wayne is hanging a string of lights 58 feet long,
And the side along the house, is 6 feet long.
We have to find,
The length and width of the patio.
According to the question,
Let, the length of his patio be L and width w,
Wayne is hanging a string of lights 58 feet long around the three sides of his patio, which is adjacent to his house.
L + 2W = 58
And The length of his patio, the side along the house, is 6 feet longer than twice its width.
L = 2W + 6
Solving the equation putting the of L from equation 2 in equation 1,
= 2W + 6 + 2W = 58
= 4W = 58 - 6
= 4W = 52
= W = [tex]\frac{52}{4}[/tex]
= W = 13
And L = 2(13) + 6 = 32
Patio length(L) = 32 And width(w) = 13.
Hence , The required patio length(L) = 32 And width(w) = 13.

Consider this bag of marbles.
Answer:
p(green) = 0.5odds in favor of green: 1 : 1Step-by-step explanation:
There are 5 green marbles among the 10 in the bag, so the probability of drawing one at random is 5/10 = 0.50.
The odds in favor of drawing a green marble will be the ratio of the number of green marbles to the number that are not green: 5 : 5. Usually, the odds are expressed using integers with no common factors, so they would be written as 1 : 1.

Two clocks are turned on at the same time.One clock chimes every 15 minutes.The other clock chimes every 25 minutes.In how many minutes will they chime together
Answer:
The two clock will chime together in 75 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
- Two clocks are turned on at the same time
- One clock chimes every 15 minutes
- The other clock chimes every 25 minutes
- We need to know in how many minutes they will chime together
- The two clock will chime together in the multiples of 15 and 25
- Lets find the first common multiple of 15 and 25
∵ 15 = 5 × 3
∴ The prime factors of 15 are 3 and 5
∵ 25 = 5 × 5
∴ The prime factor of 25 is 5

The two clock will chime together in 75 minutes
A space plane skims the edge of space at 4000 miles per hour. Neglecting altitude, if the circumference of the planet is approximately 25000 miles, how long will it take for the plane to travel around the planet?
A plane traveling at a speed of 4000 miles per hour would take approximately 6.25 hours to travel around a planet with a circumference of 25,000 miles.
Explanation:To solve this question, we will use the concept of time, speed, and distance. We know that the plane travels at a speed of 4000 miles per hour and the Earth's circumference is 25000 miles. Thus to compute the time it would take for the plane to travel around the planet, we can use the relation 'Time = Distance / Speed'.
The distance in this case is the circumference of the Earth, which is 25000 miles and the speed is the plane's speed, which is 4000 miles/hour. So, we simply divide 25000 miles by 4000 miles/hour:
Time = 25000 / 4000 = 6.25 hours

(1 pt) A data set consists of the 11 data points shown below, plus one additional data point. When the additional point is included in the data set, the sample standard deviation of the 12 points is computed to be 12.091. If it is known that the additional data point is 25 or less, find the value of the twelfth data point. 25, 41, 49, 25, 30, 13, 31, 34, 27, 54, 38 Value of the additional data point
Answer:
12.83
Step-by-step explanation:
S = 12.091
N = 12
We must find the 12th point, X
The formula of S² (variance) as a function of µ (media) is as follows:
S² = (1/N Ʃ Xi²) - µ²
S² = 146.2
Multiplying both members by N,
N S² = Ʃ Xi² – N µ²
On the other hand,
µ = (25 + 41 + 49 + 25 + 30 + 13 + 31 + 34 + 27 + 54 + 38 + X) / 12
µ = (367 + X) / 12
Replacing,
12 x 146.2 = 13607 + X² – 12 (367 + X)² / 144
1754.4 = 13607 + X² – 0.0833 (134689 + 734 X + X²)
1754.4 = 13607 + X² – 11219.5 – 61.14 X – 0.0833 X²
0.92 X² – 61.14 X + 633.1 = 0
This is solved by finding the two values of X that satisfy the equation.
The solution requires solving the quadratic formula,
X12 = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / 2a
The values are:
X1 = 12.83
X2 = 53.62
Since we know that the value is 25 or less, the answer is 12.83
The twelfth data point in the data set is x = 16.32
How to find the aditional point?
Let x be the value of the twelfth data point. We know that the sample standard deviation of the 12 points is 12.091. We can use the following formula to calculate the sample standard deviation:
s = √((Σ((xₙ - M)²) / (n - 1)))
where:
s is the sample standard deviationxₙ is the value of the n-th data pointM is the sample meann is the number of data pointsWe can plug in the given values to get the following equation:
if x is the missing data point then:
M = (25 + 41 + 49 + 25 + 30 + 13+ 31 + 34 + 27 + 54 + 38 + x)/12
M = 30.6+ x/12
And we know that:
s = 12.091
n = 12
Replacing these values we get:
12.091 = √((Σ((xₙ - 30.6 - x/12)²) / (12 - 1)))
Apply the square in both sides:
146.19 = (Σ((xₙ - 30.6 - x/12)²) / (11)
Multiply both sides by 11:
146.19*11 = Σ((xₙ - 30.6 - x/12)²
1,608.12 = Σ((xₙ - 30.6 - x/12)²
Now we can solve the right side:
1,608.12 = (-5.6 - x/12)² + (10.4 - x/12)² + (18.4- x/12)² + (-5.6 - x/12)² + (-0.6 - x/12)² + (-17.6 - x/12)² + (0.4 - x/12)² + (3.4 - x/12)² + (-3.6 - x/12)² + (23.4 - x/12)² + (7.4 - x/12)² + ( x - x/12)²
Now we can graph this, the positive solution is x = 16.32

Find the vertical asymptotes?
Answer:
x = -5, x = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
After canceling common terms from numerator and denominator, there are two factors remaining in the denominator that can become zero. The vertical asymptotes are at those values of x.
[tex]\displaystyle F(x)=\frac{x\frac{2x}{2}}{x(x+5)(x+6)}=\frac{x}{(x+5)(x+6)}[/tex]
The denominator will be zero when ...
x + 5 = 0 . . . . at x = -5
x + 6 = 0 . . . . at x = -6
For a certain commodity the supply equation is given by S = 2p + 5 At a price of $1, there is a demand for 19 units of the commodity. If the demand equation is linear and the market price is $3, find the demand equation.
Answer:
The demand equation is: D=-4p+23
Step-by-step explanation:
To get started, we should keep in mind that the market price (p=3) occurs when supply equals demand ,therefore when p=3
S=2(3)+5=11
Thus, when p=3 D=11 and, according to the problem when p=1 D=19.
We already know two points on the demand curve. Great!
The demand equation is linear, so it has form D=bp+c.
The variable b is the slope of the demand linear equation . It can be computed through the formula
[tex]b=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]. equation 1
Substituting the two points (3,11) and (1,19) on equation 1.
[tex]b=\frac{19-11}{1-3} =\frac{8}{-2}[/tex]
b=-4
Now we can find the value of intercept of the demand equation c trough point-slope form y-y1=b(x-x1).
We can use any of the points. Let's take (3,11) and write in point-slope :
y-11=-4(x-3)
y=-4x+11+12
y=-4x+23
Rewrite the linear equation according our variables D and p
D=-4P+23
Finally we found the demand equation !
Reasoning if you multiply two decimals that are less than 1,can you predict whether the product will be less thanor greater than either of the factors? Explain
Answer:
if both are positive, the result will be smaller than eitherif one is negative, the result is less than the positive number and greater than the negative number.if both are negative, the result is greater than eitherStep-by-step explanation:
The magnitude of a fraction of a fraction (their product) is always smaller than the magnitudes of either fraction. So, if both decimals are positive, the result is less than either factor.
___
Negative numbers are less than 1, so there can be several cases of interest when one or both numbers are negative.
Both numbers negative
The product will be positive, so will be greater than either negative factor.
__
One number negative, the other number positive
The product will be negative, so will be less than the positive factor and greater than the negative factor. (Multiplying a negative number by a positive fraction moves it closer to zero on the number line, hence to a value that is greater than the negative factor.)
You are given 1000 one dollar bills and 10 envelopes. Put the bills into the envelopes in such a way that someone can ask you for any amount of money from $1 to $1000 (examples - $532, $619, $88, etc.) and you can give it to them through a combination of the envelopes.
Answer:
We can do it with envelopes with amounts $1,$2,$4,$8,$16,$32,$64,$128,$256 and $489
Step-by-step explanation:
Observe that, in binary system, 1023=1111111111. That is, with 10 digits we can express up to number 1023.This give us the idea to put in each envelope an amount of money equal to the positional value of each digit in the representation of 1023. That is, we will put the bills in envelopes with amounts of money equal to $1,$2,$4,$8,$16,$32,$64,$128,$256 and $512.
However, a little modification must be done, since we do not have $1023, only $1,000. To solve this, the last envelope should have $489 instead of 512.
Observe that:
1+2+4+8+16+32+64+128+256+489=1000Since each one of the first 9 envelopes represents a position in a binary system, we can represent every natural number from zero up to 511. If we want to give an amount "x" which is greater than $511, we can use our $489 envelope. Then we would just need to combine the other 9 to obtain x-489 dollars. Since [tex]x-489\leq511[/tex], by 2) we know that this would be possible.Anyone know the answer to this geometry problem?
