15 men and 20 women what is the experimental probability that the next person to enter the store will be a man?

Answers

Answer 1
To find probability, you write a fraction with the numerator as the subject you are trying to find the probability of and with a denominator as the total number of subjects. The total number of subjects is 35 (or 15 + 20). The subject we are finding the probability of is men, which there are 15 of. Therefore the fraction would look like this:

15/35
which we can simplify to 
3/7

The probability that the next person to enter the store will be a man is 3/7
Answer 2

Answer: 3/7

Women: 20

Men: 15

Total: 35

15/35 is simplified to 3/7

The measure of angle x is 25 more than 4 times the measure of its complement. Find the measure of x.

Answers

- Two angles that are complements of each other add to equal 90 degrees (they are complementary angles). 
- One angle measures x degrees.
- The other angle measures 25 more than 4 times the angle that measures x degrees; it measures 4x + 25 degrees.

To find x, set the sum of these expressions (x and 4x + 25) equal to 90 and solve algebraically for x.

90 = x + (4x + 25)
90 = x + 4x + 25
90 = 5x + 25
65 = 5x
13 = x

If you wanted to find the measure of angle x, you'd substitute 13 for x in its expression, 4x + 25.

Native Americans once lived near Cartersville, Georgia, in an area that is now a state park. They constructed burial mounds that often contained artifacts, such as beads, feathers, and copper ear ornaments. One of the park's mounds is 63 feet in height. Be a Math Detective. If the top of the mound is rectangular in shape with a perimeter of 322 yards, what could be the side lengths of the rectangle?

Answers

Final answer:

The sides of the rectangle atop of the mound could be multiple pairs of measurements. One such possible example is 100 yards by 61 yards which satisfy the perimeter equation, given the perimeter of the rectangle is 322 yards.

Explanation:

The question is asking about the side lengths of the rectangular top of an ancient mound in Cartersville, Georgia. This is a math problem that uses the concept of perimeter.

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula: P = 2l + 2w where P is the perimeter, l is the length, and w is the width. We know that the perimeter of the rectangle is 322 yards. We can solve for the sides (length and width) by setting up equations using various combinations of numbers that, when plugged into the formula, result in a sum of 322.

It's important to note that we won't have a unique solution to this because a rectangle's perimeter doesn't determine its side lengths uniquely, but only within certain limits. So, there could be multiple correct answers.

For example, if we consider the length to be 161 yards, and the width to be 0 yards, it would still satisfy the perimeter equation. But since width cannot be zero, we can suppose the length to be longer side and width to be smaller, say 100 yards and 61 yards, which also add up to produce a perimeter of 322 yards. So, one possible solution is 100 yards by 61 yards.

Kristen has 64 coins in her bank. She has $9.25 in dimes and quarters. How many dimes and quarters does she have?

Answers

d= # of dimes
q= # of quarters

QUANTITY EQUATION:
d + q= 64

COST EQUATION:
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25


STEP 1:
multiply quantity equation by -0.10 to be able to eliminate the d term in step 2

(-0.10)(d + q)= (-0.10)(64)
-0.10d - 0.10q= -6.40


STEP 2:
add equation from step 1 to cost equation to eliminate the d term and solve for q

Add
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25
-0.10d - 0.10q= -6.40

0.15q= 2.85
divide both sides by 0.15

q= 19 quarters


STEP 3:
substitute q value in step 2 into either original equation to find d value

d + q= 64

d + 19= 64
subtract 19 from both sides

d= 45 dimes


CHECK:
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25
0.10(45) + 0.25(19)= 9.25
4.50 + 4.75= 9.25
9.25= 9.25


ANSWER: There are 45 dimes and 19 quarters.

Answers


[tex]5.23x + 3.76 - 3.67x + 6.39 \\ = 1.56x + 10.15[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(5.23x + 3.76) – (3.67x – 6.39)

(a + b) – (c – d) = a + b – c + d

Remove the parentheses and change the signs as needed:

5.23x + 3.76 – 3.67x + 6.39.

Group the like terms and simplify:

5.23x – 3.67x + 3.76 + 6.39

The simplified form of (5.23x + 3.76) – (3.67x – 6.39) is 1.56x + 10.15.

Given a mean of 61.2 and a standard deviation of 21.4 what is the z score of the value 90 rounded to the nearest tenth?

The height of a model rocket is 4.5% of the height of the actual rocket. The model is 1.32m high. How high is the actual rocket? Please show your work.

Answers

1.32 meters = 4.5%x

x is the actual height of the rocket.

4.5% is really 0.045 (move the decimal place 2 times to the left).

1.32 = 0.045x
Divide both sides by 0.045.

x = 29.3

The height of the actual rocket is 29.3 meters.

To find the height of the actual rocket given the height of the model rocket, we can use the ratio between the two. By setting up and solving a simple equation, we can determine that the height of the actual rocket is 29.33 meters.

To find the height of the actual rocket, we need to start by determining the ratio between the height of the model rocket and the actual rocket. Given that the model rocket is 4.5% of the height of the actual rocket, we can use this ratio to solve for the height of the actual rocket.

Let's denote the height of the actual rocket as x. Since the model rocket is 4.5% (or 0.045) of the actual rocket's height, we can set up the equation:

0.045x = 1.32

To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 0.045:

x = 1.32 / 0.045

Calculating this expression gives us the height of the actual rocket as 29.33 meters.

Susan received grades of 78, 93, 82, and 76 on four math exams. What is the lowest score she can receive on her next math exam and have an average of at least 85 on the five exams?

A) 96
B) 94
C) 92
D) 90
E) 88

Answers

Answers:
Choice A) 96

==========================================

Explanation:

The original list of scores is {78, 93, 82, 76}
Add x to the list to get this new list {78, 93, 82, 76, x}

Let's find the average of the new set
Add up the values and divide by 5. We force this average to be 85 since this is the grade Susan wants
(78+93+82+76+x)/5 = 85
(329+x)/5 = 85
329+x = 85*5
329+x = 425
x = 425-329
x = 96

So if Susan gets a 96 or greater on the fifth test, then she'll have an average of at least 85 (that score or greater)

I'm not sure how you got c but the way you would solve this is for every x on the line plot you would add that amount. You don't need to worry about 0 because 0 is nothing.
There are 3 X's at 1/4 so you would add 1/4+1/4+1/4=3/4. There are 2 X's at 1/2 so you would add 1/2+1/2=1. There are 2 X's at 3/4 so you would add 3/4+3/4=1.5. There is 1 X at 1 so it would just be 1. Then add all those together 3/4+1+1.5+1=4.25 or you could just add each X as you come across it on the number line like so:
[tex]0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.75 + 0.75 + 1 = 4.25[/tex]

To find f(g(h(x))), we need to find g(h(x)) first. To do that we are going to evaluate the function g(x) at h(x):
We know that [tex]h(x)=9x^2-8[/tex] and [tex]g(x)=3x^2+5[/tex]
[tex]g(h(x))=g(9x^2-8)=3(9x^2-8)^2+5[/tex]

Perimeter can be one of two answers. You need to specify where the semicircle is.  Formula for semicircle is
pi * r
r = 18/2 = 9 or
r = 22/2 = 11
So the perimeter of the semi circle is pi * 9 = 25.12 The total Perimeter = 22 + 22 + 18 + 25.12 = 87.12

What is the equation for the sum of three consecutive even numbers totaling 198.

Question 4 options:

n+n+2+n+4=198

3n=198

n+3=198

Answers

Let the first number be represented by x.  Then the next is x+2, the next x+4.  Add these 3 expressions together and equate the sum to 198.

Final answer:

Option B: n+n+2+n+4=198

The equation for the sum of three consecutive even numbers totaling 198 can be represented as

n + (n+2) + (n+4) = 198,

where n is the first even number.

Solving the equation, the first even number is 64, and the consecutive even numbers are 66 and 68.

Explanation:

The equation for the sum of three consecutive even numbers can be represented as n + (n+2) + (n+4) = 198, where 'n' is the first even number. Let's solve the equation:

Combine like terms: 3n + 6 = 198Subtract 6 from both sides: 3n = 192Divide both sides by 3: n = 64

So, the first even number is 64, and the consecutive even numbers are 66 and 68.
