Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

71 tadpoles

Step-by-step explanation:

Windstone rescued 54 on Friday.

Let the number rescued on Saturday =x

The number rescued on Friday is 17 less than the number he rescued on Saturday.

This is written as:

54=x-17

To solve for x, we add 17 to both sides of the equation

54+17=x-17+1771=xx=71

Windstone Rescued 71 tadpoles on Saturday

Answer 2

Answer:

71 tadpoles

Step-by-step explanation:

let 't' represent the number of tadpoles he rescued on Saturday.

According to the problem,

Windstone rescued 54 on Friday.

If the number rescued on Friday is 17 less than the number he rescued on Saturday.

The equation to find  the number of tadpoles he rescued on Saturday will be:

Andy invests $500 into an account with 4.8% interest, compounded continuously. How much will be in the account in 10 years?

Answers

Answer:

The Correct answer:

$799.06

Final answer:

To find out how much Andy will have in his account after 10 years with a 4.8% interest compounded continuously, we use the formula A = Pe^{rt}. Substituting the values, we find that the amount will be approximately $808.85.

Explanation:

To calculate how much Andy will have in his account in 10 years with an initial investment of $500 at a 4.8% interest rate compounded continuously, we use the formula for continuous compounding, which is A = Pert, where A is the amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest, P is the principal amount, r is the annual interest rate (decimal), and t is the time in years.

Using the given values:

P = $500

r = 4.8% or 0.048

 t = 10 years

Let's compute the final amount:

A = 500 * e^0.048 * 10

Now we calculate the exponent:

e^0.48 (approximately 1.6177)

And then the final amount:

A = 500 * 1.6177 ≈ $808.85

After 10 years, the amount in Andy's account, compounded continuously at a rate of 4.8%, will be approximately $808.85.

Cathy is asked to find the length of AC. She could use the Pythagorean Theorem and AC2 = 32 + 22. What other formula could she use? A) (0 + 3)2 - (1 + 3)2 B) (0 + 1)2 - (3 + 3)2 C) (0 - 3)2 + (1 - 3)2 D) (0 - 1)2 + (3 - 3)2

Answers

Answer:

Cathy is asked to find the length of AC. She could use the Pythagorean Theorem and AC^2 = 3^2 + 2^2. What other formula could she use?

A) (0 + 3)^2 - (1 + 3)^2

B) (0 + 1)^2 - (3 + 3)^2

C) (0 - 3)^2 + (1 - 3)^2

D) (0 - 1)^2 + (3 - 3)^2

Option C is the right choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cathy have used Pythagoras formula to find the hypotenuse.

Hypotenuse of the right angled triangle = AC

We know that:

In right angled triangle:

Hypotenuse square (h)^2 = Square of one side (p)^ + Square of another sides (b)^

⇒ [tex]h^2=p^2+b^2[/tex]

In Cathy's calculation:

⇒ [tex]AC^2=3^2+2^2[/tex]

⇒ [tex]AC^2=9+4[/tex]

⇒ [tex]AC^2=13[/tex]

We have to look for another equation.

Lets see the options individually.

A. [tex]AC^2=(0 + 3)^2 - (1 + 3)^2= 9-16 = 7[/tex]

B. [tex]AC^2=(0 + 1)^2 - (3 + 3)^2=1-0 =1[/tex]

C. [tex]AC^2=(0 - 3)^2 + (1 - 3)^2 =9+4=13[/tex]

D. [tex]AC^2=(0 - 1)^2 + (3 - 3)^2=1+0 =1[/tex]

So,

The other formula Cathy can use is, C i.e. (0 - 3)^2 + (1 - 3)^2 .

Option C is the right choice.

The correct answer is option  C) (0 - 3) + (1 - 3)

If AC is the hypotenuse, and the lengths of the other two sides are 3 and 2, then AC = 3 + 2.

 However, Cathy can also use the distance formula, which is derived from the Pythagorean Theorem. The distance formula calculates the distance between two points in a coordinate plane. If we have two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the distance d between these points is given by:

d = (x2 - x1) + (y2 - y1)

Given that one endpoint of AC, let's call it A, is at (0, 3) and the other endpoint, let's call it C, is at (1, -3), we can apply the distance formula to find AC:

AC = (1 - 0) + (-3 - 3)

AC = (1) + (-6)

AC = 1 + 36

AC = 37

Therefore, the length of AC is the square root of 37, which is 37.

Let's evaluate the other options to see why they are incorrect:

A) (0 + 3) - (1 + 3): This formula would calculate the difference between the squares of the distances from the origin to two points, which does not correspond to the distance between two points.

B) (0 + 1) - (3 + 3): Similar to option A, this formula calculates the difference between the squares of the distances from the origin to two points, which is not the correct application of the Pythagorean Theorem for finding the distance between two points.

D) (0 - 1) + (3 - 3): This formula incorrectly calculates the distance by subtracting the y-coordinates instead of the x-coordinates and does not account for the difference in x-coordinates properly.

Thus, the correct formula to use, other than the direct application of the Pythagorean Theorem, is the distance formula, which in this case is option C) (0 - 3) + (1 - 3).

Answers

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we need to isolate the variable, x

5x-18=2(3x-12) +4

Distribute the 2

5x-18=2*3x + 2*-12 +4

5x-18=6x-24+4

Combine like terms (add -24 and 4)

5x-18=6x-20

Add 18 to both sides

5x=6x-2

Subtract 6x from both sides

-x=-2

Divide both sides by -1

x=2

Answer: [tex]x=2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Get rid of the parenthesis. You can do this by multiplying.

[tex]5x-18=2(3x-12)+4[/tex]

[tex]5x-18=6x-24+4[/tex]

2. Move the variables to the left and the numbers to the right. If one of the numbers is not on its side (left or right) and you need to move it, change the sign.

[tex]5x-6x=-24+4+18[/tex]

Solve: Since the result is -1 and we have a variable, we can omit it.

[tex]-x=-24+22[/tex]

[tex]-x=-2[/tex]

Divide both sides by -1 to isolate the x

[tex]\frac{-(1)x}{-1} =\frac{-2}{-1}[/tex]

Solve:

[tex]x=2[/tex]

3. Proof: Replace the result in the original equation and both sides should be equal. (this step is for you to make sure that your answer is correct.

[tex]5x-18=2(3x-12)+4[/tex]

[tex]5(2)-18=2[3(2)-12]+4[/tex]

[tex]10-18=2(6-12)+4[/tex]

[tex]-8=2(-6)+4[/tex]

[tex]-8=-12+4[/tex]

[tex]-8=-8[/tex]

As you can see, both sides are equal to each other; which proves that [tex]x=2[/tex] is correct.

The weight distribution of parcels sent in a certain manner is normal with meanvalue 12 pounds and standard deviation 3.5 pounds. The parcel service wishes to establish aweight valuecbeyond which there will be a surcharge. What value ofcis such that 99% ofall parcels are under the surcharge weight?

Answers

Answer:

The parcel with weight less than 20.14 pounds are 99% of all parcels under the surcharge weight.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 12 pounds

Standard Deviation, σ = 3.5 pounds

We are given that the distribution of weights is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

[tex]z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.99

[tex]P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 12}{3.5})=0.99[/tex]  

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

[tex]\displaystyle\frac{x - 12}{3.5} = 2.326\\\\x = 20.141\approx 20.14[/tex]  

Thus, parcel with weight less than 20.14 pounds are 99% of all parcels under the surcharge weight.

Suppose that a coin is tossed three times and the side showing face up on each toss is noted. Suppose also that on each toss heads and tails are equally likely. Let HHT indicate the outcome heads on the first two tosses and tails on the third, THT the outcome tails on the first and third tosses and heads on the second, and so forth. (a) Using set-roster notation, list the eight elements in the sample space whose outcomes are all the possible head-tail sequences obtained in the three tosses.

Answers

Answer:

S={HHH,HHT,HTH,HTT,THH,THT,TTH,TTT}

Step-by-step explanation:

As can be seen in the Sample Tree attached, the eight elements in the sample space whose outcomes are all the possible head-tail sequences obtained in the three tosses are:

S={HHH,HHT,HTH,HTT,THH,THT,TTH,TTT}

When tossing a coin three times, there are 8 possible outcomes listed as HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, and TTT. These elements represent all possible head-tail sequences for three coin tosses.

When a coin is tossed three times, each outcome is a sequence of heads (H) and tails (T). Since there are two possible outcomes for each toss, the total number of possible sequences is 23 = 8. Let's list these sequences using set-roster notation.

The sample space is:

HHHHHTHTHHTTTHHTHTTTHTTT

These elements cover all possible outcomes where each toss can either result in heads or tails.

Which of the following statements are true?

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The outcomes of events. A and B are dependent on each other.

Final answer:

The question relates to probability in Mathematics, specifically the probability of selecting a red (event A) or a mystery novel (event B) from Chloe's bookshelf. Both probabilities are 7/10 as 7 out of 10 books are red or mysteries. The probability of both A and B occurring simultaneously is 5/10, as 5 out of 10 of the books are red mysteries.

Explanation:

The subject of this question is the calculation of probabilities in Mathematics. Here we have two events: event A, defined as selecting a red book, and event B, defined as selecting a mystery novel. Considering Chloe's bookshelf, she has 7 red books out of a total of 10, meaning that the probability of event A is 7/10. In addition, she has 7 mystery novels out of a total of 10 books, meaning that the probability of event B is 7/10 also.

It can be said that both events A and B are independent, because the colour of the book does not affect what genre it is. Also, it's worth mentioning that the likelihood of both A and B occurring, meaning the selection of a red mystery novel is (5/10) as 5 out of 10 books are red and mysteries.

A television station shows commercials for 13/12 minutes each hour. How many 45-second commercials can it show?

Answers

The television station can show 1 full 45-second commercial during the 13/12 minutes of advertising time allocated each hour.

The question involves calculating how many 45-second commercials can be shown during the 13/12 minutes of advertising time allocated by a television station each hour. To solve this, we first need to convert the minutes to seconds and then divide by the length of one commercial.

13/12 minutes is equal to 13/12 × 60 seconds, which gives us 65 seconds of advertising time per hour. One commercial is 45 seconds long. Therefore, the number of 45-second commercials that can be shown is 65 divided by 45.

Divide the total advertising seconds by the duration of one commercial: 65 / 45 = approximately 1.44.

Since we cannot show a fraction of a commercial, the television station can show 1 full 45-second commercial per hour.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the solution of the system of equations are w = 10 and m = -8. The answer is not at all reasonable.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two system of equations are m + 2w = 12 and m + 3w = 22 where m and w represent the number of men and women working in an office.

We subtract both the sides with each other in order to solve the system of equation.

⇒ m + 3w - m - 2w = 22 - 12

⇒ w = 10.

⇒ m = -8.

The values of w and m are not reasonable at all. Since m and w represent the number of men and women in an office, they cannot be less than zero.

Elasticity of Demand The demand function for a certain brand of backpacks is
P=50 ln(50/x)
where P is the unit price in dollars and X is the quantity (in hundreds) demanded per month.


1) Find the elasticity of demand, and determine the range of prices corresponding to inelastic, unitary, and elastic demand.

2) If the unit price is increased slightly from $50, will the revenue increase or decrease?

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- The demand function of a certain brand is given as price P a function of x quantity of goods ( in hundred ) demanded per month. The relation is:

                           P ( x ) = 50 Ln ( 50 / x ).

- The point price elasticity ( E ) of demand is given by:

                           [tex]E = \frac{P}{x}*\frac{dP}{dx}[/tex]  

- Where, dP / dx : is the rate of change of price ( P ) with each hundred unit of good ( x ) is demanded.

- To determine the " dP / dx " by taking the first derivative of the given relation:

                          P ( x ) = 50 Ln ( 50 / x ).

                          d P ( x ) / dx = [ 50*x / 50 ] * [ -1*50 / x^2 ]

                                              = - 50 / x

- Hence the point price elasticity of demand is given by:

                          E = - ( P / x ) * ( 50 / x )

                          E = -50*P / x^2    

- For an inelastic demand, ! E ! is < 1:

                          ! -50*P / x^2 ! < 1

                          50*P / x^2 < 1

                          P < x^2 / 50

- For an unitary demand, ! E ! is =  1:

                          ! -50*P / x^2 !  = 1

                          50*P / x^2 = 1

                          P = x^2 / 50

- For an inelastic demand, ! E ! is > 1:

                          ! -50*P / x^2 ! > 1

                          50*P / x^2 > 1

                          P > x^2 / 50

2)

If the unit price is increased slightly from $50, will the revenue increase or decrease?

- We see from the calculated demand sensitivity d P / dt:

                          d P ( x ) / dx = - 50 / x

- We see that as P increases the from P = $50, the quantity of goods demanded would be:

                          50 = 50 ln(50/x)

                           1 = Ln ( 50 / x )

                           50/x = e

                           x = 50 / e

Then,

                          d P ( x ) / dx = - 50 / ( 50 / e )

                          d P ( x ) / dx = - e

- We see that if price slightly increases from $ 50 then the quantity demanded would decrease by e (hundreds ) goods.

- The decrease in the quantity demanded is higher than the increase in price. The revenue is given by the product of price P ( x ) and x:

                Revenue R ( x ) = P ( x ) * x

                                = 50*x*ln(50/x)

Then the product of price and quantity goods also decreases; hence, revenue decreases.

The Thomas family went for a Sunday drive. Before they left, Mr. Thomas noticed the gas tank was ¾ full. When they returned home the gas tank was ⅓ full. If the gas tank holds 18 gallons, how many gallons of gas did the car use on the drive?

Answers

Answer:

7.5 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The Thomas family went for a Sunday drive.

Before they left, Mr. Thomas noticed the gas tank was ¾ full.

When they returned home the gas tank was ⅓ full.

Total capacity of the gas tank = 18 gallons

Question asked:

How many gallons of gas did the car use on the drive?

Solution:

Before they left, quantity of gas in the tank = [tex]\frac{3}{4} \times18=\frac{54}{4} =13.5\ gallons[/tex]

When they returned, quantity of gas in the tank = [tex]\frac{1}{3} \times18=\frac{18}{3} =6\ gallons[/tex]

Quantity of gas used on the drive = 13.5 - 6 = 7.5 gallons

Therefore, 7.5 gallons of gas used on the drive by Thomas family.

A biologist is studying the effects that applying insecticide to a fruit farm has on the local bat population. She collects 23 bats and finds the mean weight of this sample to be 503.4 grams. Assuming the selected bats are a random​ sample, she concludes that because the sample mean is an unbiased estimator of the population​ mean, the mean weight of bats in the population is also 503.4 grams. Explain why this is an incorrect interpretation of an unbiased estimator.

Answers

Answer:

The insufficient or relatively small size of the random sample does not guarantee the unbiasedness of the sample mean in any statistical study.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Statistics,if the sample mean is an unbiased estimator of population mean,then the expected value of the sample mean is equal or identical to the actual population mean.As the researcher increases the size of the random sample in any statistical study or research, the sample mean increasingly approaches the actual population mean and hence, with increasing sample size with relation to the actual population of the study,the sample mean will become an unbiased estimator of the population mean.In this instance, the biologist has selected only 23 bats for the concerned study which might not be enough considering the entire or actual local bat population. Therefore, even a random sampling of 23 bats will not necessarily ensure that the sample mean will be an unbiased estimator of the population mean, in this case. Hence, the biologist would have to increase the size of the random sample to establish the unbiasedness of the sample estimate or the mean.

The diameter of a circle is 4 cm. Which equation can be used to find its circumference
A: C = pi x 44
B: C = pi x 2
C: C = 16 x pi
D: C = pi x 4

Answers

Answer:

D: C = 4π

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for circumference is C = 2πr

The diameter is 4 which means the radius is 2.

Plug the value of r into the formula.

C = 2π2

C = 4π

D: C = 4π
