In 1995, the standard bus fare in Chicago was $1.50. In 2008, the standard bus fare was $2.25. Give your answer as a percentage value. Find the percent increase of the bus fare in Chicago.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The bus fair is 50% increases.

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage is the proportion of the relation to the whole.

Percentage increase is calculate as ratio of difference of original and new value to the original value. i.e.

[tex]\frac{ Percentage\ increase\ \ =\ \ new\ value - original \ value}{original\ \ value}[/tex]

∴ [tex]\frac{ Percentage\ increase\ \ =\ \ 2.25 - 1.50 }{1.50}[/tex]

⇒ Percentage increase = 50%

Answer 2

By using percentage, the result obtained is-

Percentage increase in bus fare in Chicago  = 50%

What is percentage?

Suppose there is a number and the number has to be expressed as a fraction of 100. The fraction is called percentage.

For example 2% means [tex]\frac{2}{100}[/tex]. Here 2 is expressed as a fraction of 100.

Here,

Bus fare in the year 1995  in Chicago= $1.50

Bus fare in the year 2008 in Chicago = $2.25

Increase in bus fare = $(2.25 - 1.50) = $0.75

Percentage increase in bus fare in Chicago = [tex]\frac{0.75}{1.50}\times 100[/tex]

                                                                         = 50%

Find the equation of the line in slope-intercept form that passes through the following point with the given slope. Simplify your answer.


Point (5,−2); Slope=5

Answers

Answer:

5x - y = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is the direction of line and it is calculated as,

[tex]Slope = \frac{y-y_{1}}{x-x_{1}} [/tex]

where (x₁, y₁) is any two points on the line.

Here, we have given that

Slope = 5  and (x₁, y₁) = (5, -2)

∴  [tex]5 = \frac{y-(-2)}{x-5} [/tex]

⇒ 5(x - 5) = y + 2

⇒ 5x - 25 = y + 2

⇒ 5x - y = 27

Hence, the equation of a line is: 5x - y = 27

Helpers are needed to prepare for the fete. Each helper can make either 2 large cakes or 35 small cakes per hour. The kitchen is available for 3 hours and 20 large cakes and 700 small cakes are needed. How many helpers are required?

Answers

Answer:

You require 10 helpers

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem could be solved in many ways ( like using an optimization software) but I propose you this.

Start with production of large cakes.  In the time kitchen is available one helper could make, if only works in large cakes:

(2 large cakes / 1 hour) * (3 hours ) = 6 large cakes

So with 3 helpers using all their 3 hours we would have

3 helpers *6 large cakes /helper  = 18 large cakes.

We need 2 more large cakes so we can use one more helper and in his first hour he can produce

(2 large cakes / 1 hour) * (1 hour ) = 2 large cakes

The 4th helper has two hours of work left so he can produce small cakes.

(35 small cakes/hour* 2 hours = 70 small cakes.

With 4 helpers we have the 20 large cakes and 70 small ones. We still have to makes

700 - 70 = 630 small cakes left

In the 3 hour period a helper can make

(35 small cakes / 1 hour) * (3 hours ) = 105 large cakes

So if 1 helper does  105 large cakes  we would need to finish production with

630 / 105 =  6 helpers

So in total we have 3 helpers in only large cakes 6 in only small cakes and one helper doing both - total 10 helpers

y = 115,000(1.5)x
y = 115,000(0.95)x
y = 115,000(1.05)x
y = 115,000(0.05)x

Answers

Answer:

C. y = 115 000(1.05)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

A scale drawing of a square has a side length of 5 millimeters. The drawing has a scale of 1 mm : 5 km. Find the actual perimeter and area of the square.

Answers

Answer:

Actual Perimeter = 100 km

        Actual Area = 625 km²

Step-by-step explanation:

A scale drawing of a square has a side length of 5 millimeters.

The drawing has a scale of 1 mm : 5 km (which represents 1 mm is equal to 5 km)

We need to find the actual measurement of 5 mm square on scale.

                1 mm = 5 km

               5 mm = 5 × 5 km

                          = 25 km

The actual length of the side of square is 25 km

Now, we find the perimeter and area of the square.

Perimeter of square = 4 × side

                                 = 4 × 25

                                = 100 km

Area of the square = side × side

                                        = 25 × 25

                                        = 625 km²

Hence, The actual perimeter is 100 km and area of the square is 625 km²

A street light is at the top of a 25 ft pole. A 4 ft tall girl walks along a straight path away from the pole with a speed of 6 ft/sec. At what rate is the tip of her shadow moving away from the light (ie. away from the top of the pole) when the girl is 45 ft away from the pole?

Answers

When the girl is 45 ft away from the pole, the tip of her shadow is moving away from the light at a rate of approximately 4.8 ft/sec.

Given:

Height of the pole (h): 25 ft

Height of the girl (4 ft)

Rate of the girl walking away from the pole (dx/dt = 6 ft/sec)

Distance from the pole to the girl (x = 45 ft, when the girl is 45 ft away from the pole)

Objective:

Find the rate at which the tip of her shadow is moving away from the light (ds/dt) when the girl is 45 ft away from the pole.

Step 1: Set up the Similar Triangles Equation

s/x = h/(x + s)

Step 2: Differentiate both sides with respect to time t:

(1/x) * ds/dt - (s/x^2) * dx/dt = (h/(x + s)^2) * (dx/dt + ds/dt)

Step 3: Substitute Known Values:

Substitute x = 45, dx/dt = 6, and h = 25 into the equation.

(1/45) * ds/dt - (s/45^2) * 6 = (25/(45 + s)^2) * (6 + ds/dt)

Step 4: Solve for ds/dt:

Combine like terms and isolate ds/dt.

(1/45) * ds/dt - (s/45^2) * 6 = (25/(45 + s)^2) * (6 + ds/dt)

Step 5: Substitute x = 45 into the equation:

(1/45) * ds/dt - (4/2025) = (25/(90 + s)^2) * (6 + ds/dt)

Step 6: Solve for ds/dt:

ds/dt ≈ 4.8 ft/sec

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Each ounce of fruit will supply

1 unit of​ protein, 2 units of​ carbohydrates, 1 unit of fat.

Each ounce of nuts will supply

1 unit of​ protein, 1 unit of​ carbohydrates, 1 unit of fat.

Let x equal the ounces of fruit and y equal the ounces of nuts to be used in each package.

Then x ounces of fruit will supply

x units of​ protein, 2x units of​ carbohydrates, x units of fat

and y ounces of nuts will supply

y units of​ protein, y units of​ carbohydrates, y units of fat.

Every package must provide

at least 7 units of​ protein, then x+y≥7,at least 11 units of​ carbohydrates, then 2x+y≥11,and no more than 10 units of fat, then x+y≤10.

A. You get the system of three inequalities

[tex]\left\{\begin{array}{l}x+y\ge 7\\ 2x+y\ge 11\\x+y\le 10\end{array}\right.[/tex]

B. See attached diagram

[tex]\begin{array}{cccc}&\text{Protein}&\text{Carbohydrates}&\text{Fat}\\\text{Fruit}&x&2x&x\\\text{Nuts}&y&y&y\\&\text{at least 7}&\text{at least 11}&\text{no more than 10}\end{array}[/tex]

Final answer:

Three inequalities were formulated: 1x + 1y ≥ 7 for protein, 2x + y ≥ 11 for carbohydrates and x + y ≤ 10 for fat, with x being fruit and y being nuts. These needs to be graphed to find a feasible region that meets all conditions. A table summarizing the needed unit amount per ounce for protein, carbohydrates, and fats for both fruits and nuts was also provided.

Explanation:

To solve your question, first, let's express the given conditions as inequalities:

For Protein: The amount of protein per ounce for the fruit is 1 and for the nuts is 1. So we will have 1x + 1y ≥ 7 units of protein. For Carbohydrates: The units of carbohydrates per ounce for fruit is 2 and for nuts is 1. Therefore, the inequality will be 2x + y ≥ 11 units of carbohydrates.For Fat: Each fruit and each nut both contains one unit of fat per ounce. The inequality for total fat units will be x + y ≤ 10 units of fat.

Graphing

these inequalities would result in a feasible region that should fulfill all conditions.

The following table summarizes this:

A function follows the rule y = -75 - 5x. When the function's output is 25, the equation is 25 = -75 - 5x. What is the function input when the output is 25?

Answers

Answer:

The function input is -20 when the output is 25

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

[tex]y=-75-5x[/tex]

where

y is the dependent variable or output

x is the independent variable or input

If the output is 25

then

y=25

substitute

[tex]25=-75-5x[/tex]

Solve for the function input is the same that solve for x

Isolate the variable x

Adds 5x both sides

[tex]25+5x=-75-5x+5x[/tex]

[tex]25+5x=-75[/tex]

subtract 25 both sides

[tex]25+5x-25=-75-25[/tex]

[tex]5x=-100[/tex]

Divide by 5 both sides

[tex]x=-20[/tex]

therefore

The function input is -20 when the output is 25

Final answer:

To find the function input when the output is 25, solve the given equation 25 = -75 - 5x to find x = -20.

Explanation:

When the function's output is 25, the equation is 25 = -75 - 5x. To find the function input when the output is 25, solve for x:

25 = -75 - 5x
100 = -5x
x = -20

Therefore, the function input when the output is 25 is -20.

A phone company charges 15.99 a month and 9 cents for every minute above 130 minutes. Write an expression for the monthly phone charge, P, in dollars, as afunctionof the number of minutes, m, used that month.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]p=\left \{ {{15.99,m[tex]\leq[/tex]130} \atop {15.99+0.09*(m-130),m>130}} \right.[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We will have a partial funcion to define an expression for the monthly phone charge, because we have a condition that changes the monthly cost.

For months under 130 minutes, there will not be any additional charge other that tha base monthly cost, so the expression for the months under 130 minutes will be the monthly fee.

For months over 130 we will have the same information than above, but we have to add a fee for every minute over 130 minutes. To find the amaunt of minutes over 30 minutes we will just subtract 130 to the amount of minutes used: (m-130). Then we will multiply that number times the cos of each minute over 130 minutes: 9*(m-130). Finally we will add the basic phone fee: 15.99 + (0.09*(m-130)).

Now we set the conditions and use the correct notation for a partial function and we get:

[tex]p=\left \{ {{15.99,m[tex]\leq[/tex]130} \atop {15.99+0.09*(m-130),m>130}} \right.[/tex]

  gx = c - mp . . . . . subtract mp

  x = (c -mp)/g . . . . divide by g

Comment on the process

This process can be described various ways. A usual description is "get the x term by itself on one side of the equal sign, then divide by the x-coefficient."

I like a more general description of the solution to "solve for" problems: undo what is done to the variable, in reverse order.

Here, the variable x is multiplied by g, then added to mp. To undo those operations (in reverse order), first we undo the addition of mp. We accomplish that by subtracting mp, or by adding the opposite of mp, as you wish.

Having done that, we undo the multiplication by g by dividing by g.

  (gx)/g = (c -mp)/g

  x = (c -mp)/g

The steps we actually perform here are identical to the steps in "get the x-term by itself, ...". However, the process we have described can be applied to any sort of equation, not just a 2-step linear equation.

This table represents a quadratic function with a vertex at (1,0). What is the
average rate of change for the interval from x = 5 to x = 6

Answers

Answer:

9 (option D)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi Dlynjen! How are you?

Well, as maybe you know a quadratic function is a polynomial of degree 2, that is, the highest exponent in the variable is 2 (formula: y = ax^2 + bx + c). The graph of a quadratic function is a parabola (it has a U-shape).

The vertex of a parabola is the highest or lowest point of the curve (depending on whether the U opens up or down). In this case the parabola opens up because the exercise mentions the vertex is the point (x = 0, y = 1) and then for the other values of “x” (1, 2, 3, etc.) the values of “y” are higher (1, 4, 9, etc.), that's why the vertex is the lowest point in this case.

The exercise asks you to calculate the slope (or average rate of change) of the curve between x = 5 and x = 6, all you know so far is that as the curve opens up it is assumed that the slope will be positive but to calculate the slope must apply the following formula:

M = (y2 - y1) / (x2 -x1)

But we only know x1 = 5, x2 = 6, y1 = 16 (value of the table that corresponds to x1 = 5) and we must first know how much y2 is worth (for x2 = 6). For this we must know what is the quadratic function (formula) that gives rise to our parable.

If we analyze the table, we see that for each value of “x”, the value of “y” is equal to the square of (x-1), that is, if we take x = 3 as an example, the value of Y = (3 -1) ^ 2 = (2) ^ 2 = 4. And so with all the values. Having obtained this formula we can now calculate the value of “y” for x2 = 6:

Y2 = (6-1) ^ 2 = (5) ^ 2 = 25

Finally, we calculate the average exchange rate with the previous formula, knowing x1 = 5, x2 = 6, y1 = 16 and y2 = 25:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 -x1)  

m = (25-16) / (6-1)  

m = (9) / (1)  

m = 9

I hope I've been helpful!

A seed company sells two grades of seed. A 100-pound bag of a mixture of rye and Kentucky bluegrass sells for $235, and a 100-pound bag of bluegrass sells for $341. How many bags of each are sold in a week when the receipts for 17 bags are $4,949?

Answers

Answer:

The company sold 8 bags of a mixture of rye and Kentucky bluegrass and 9 bags of bluegrass

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a classical problem that can be solved using a system of equations:

Let us first define our variables:

[tex]x[/tex] as the number of 100-pound bags which contain a mixture of rye and Kentucky bluegrass and,

[tex]y[/tex] as the number of 100-pound bags of bluegrass.

The problem tells us that in a week a total of 17 bags were sold, therefore, we can say that this number must be equal to the number of bags containing the mixture of rye and Kentucky bluegrass plus the number of bags containing bluegrass. Then, according to our variable names:

[tex]x+y=17[/tex]   (1)

The problem also says that the company got a receipt for $4,949 in total. Hence, this number has to be equal to the total number of bags that contain rye and Kentucky bluegrass seeds times its price plus the number of bags containing bluegrass multiplied by its price. Then,

[tex]235x+341y=4949[/tex]  (2)

Now we have the system of equations:

[tex]x+y=17[/tex]   (1)

[tex]235x+341y=4949[/tex]  (2)

Solving for [tex]x[/tex] in equation (1)

[tex]x+y=17\\x=17-y[/tex]   (3)

And substituting [tex]x[/tex] in equation (2)

[tex]235x+341y=4949\\235(17-y)+341y =4949\\3995 - 235y +341y=4949\\-235y+341y = 4949-3995\\106y=954\\y=\frac{954}{106}\\ y=9[/tex]

Then, substituting [tex]y=9[/tex] in equation (1):

[tex]x+y=17\\x+9=17\\x=17-9\\x=8[/tex]

Thus, the company sold 8 bags of a mixture of rye and Kentucky bluegrass and 9 bags of bluegrass.

Final answer:

8 bags of the 100-pound mixture are sold, and 9 bags of the 100-pound bag of bluegrass are sold in a week.

Explanation:

Let's assume that:

x = number of bags of the 100-pound mixture of rye and Kentucky bluegrass sold

y = number of bags of the 100-pound bag of bluegrass sold

We can set up a system of equations based on the given information:

x + y = 17 (The total number of bags sold is 17) 235x + 341y = 4949 (The total cost of the receipts is $4949)

To solve this system of equations, we can use the substitution method or the elimination method. Let's use the elimination method:

Multiply equation (1) by 235 to eliminate x: 235x + 235y = 3955 Subtract equation (2) from the result of step 1: (235x + 235y) - (235x + 341y) = 3955 - 4949

Simplifying the equation in step 2 gives us -106y = -994. Solving for y, we get y = 9.

Substituting the value of y back into equation (1), we get x + 9 = 17. Solving for x, we get x = 8.

Therefore, 8 bags of the 100-pound mixture are sold, and 9 bags of the 100-pound bag of bluegrass are sold in a week.

A single microvillus is a rod-like structure that is 1.0 μm in height. It has a hemispherical top approximately 0.1 μm in diameter. Calculate the surface area of the cylinder that forms the "sides" of the microvillus rod. Use 3.14 for π.

Answers

Answer:

so, the figure here is a cylinder with a semi sphere on the top, we know the height of whole structure, and the radius of the semi sphere, which is the same as the radius of the cylinder (you can see it because the radius of the semisphere is constant, and you can thin on it as half a sphere over a cylinder).

First, the cylinder will be the structure without the semi sphere, so his height will be te total height minus the radius of the semi sphere, which is 0.9μm.

so now we know the height and the radius of the cylinder, the surface or the sides of it is 2*3.14*r*h = 2*3.14*0.9μm*0.1μm = 0.5662[tex]μm^{2}[/tex].

Final answer:

The surface area of the cylindrical part of the microvillus is calculated by multiplying pi (3.14) with the diameter (0.1μm) and height (1.0μm) to yield a result of 0.314μm².

Explanation:

To calculate the surface area of the cylindrical 'sides' of the microvillus, which we can consider to be a cylinder without its top and bottom parts, the formula used is: π * diameter * height. In this case, the diameter of the microvillus is 0.1μm (which is the diameter of the hemispherical top) and the height is 1.0μm.

Substitute these values into the formula:

Surface area = π * diameter * height = 3.14 * 0.1μm * 1.0μm = 0.314μm².

Thus, the surface area of the cylindrical part of the microvillus is 0.314 micrometers squared.

Analyzing the data, the following values were

Mean = 21.84

Median = 15.8=

Standard deviation = 18.97

Coefficient of skewness = 0.955

How to determine the mean

a. To find the mean, median, and standard deviation, you can use the following formulas:

Mean = sum of all values / number of values

Median = middle value when the values are arranged in ascending order

Standard deviation = square root of [(sum of squared differences from the mean) / (number of values - 1)]

Mean = (4.2 + 6.3 + 7.5 + ... + 83.6) / 15 = 21.84

Median = 15.8 (the 8th value when arranged in ascending order)

Standard deviation = √([(4.2 - 21.84)² + (6.3 - 21.84)² + ... + (83.6 - 21.84)²] / 14) = 18.97

b. To find the coefficient of skewness using Pearson's method, you can use the following formula:

Coefficient of skewness = (3 * (mean - median)) / standard deviation

Coefficient of skewness = (3 * (21.84 - 15.8)) / 18.97 = 0.955

Step-by-step explanation:

1 hour = 60 minutes.

Duration of the song = 3 minutes each time = 3minutes/time

So, the number of times the song can be played in an hour=

= 60minutes÷3minutes/time = 20 times

So, you can play that song in an hour for 20 times.

Answer: 20 times

[tex]\textit{\textbf{Spymore}}[/tex]  

Final answer:

A 3-minute song can play 20 times in an hour by simply dividing the 60 minutes in an hour by the length of the song, which is 3 minutes.

Explanation:

A 3-minute song can play 20 times in an hour. Here's a step-by-step breakdown of the math:

Understand that there are 60 minutes in an hour.

Divide the total minutes in an hour (60) by the length of the song (3 minutes).

The result is the number of times the song can be played in one hour, which is 20 times.

The question seems to diverge from the provided information about the collection of songs with varying lengths. However, for the direct question asked, we do not need those details.

Norma Jean makes $25 per hour. She works 35 hours per week. She gets a commission of 15% on her total sales. How much should Norma sell to make $4,500 in a single week?

Norma needs to make sales worth $ _____ to make $4,500.

Answers

Answer:

$24,166.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Let carry out the breakdown:

So Norman Jean makes a flat rate of $25 per hour, also she works 35 hours per week.

From the above statement Jean will make => 25 × 35 = $875 in a single week without commission.

For Jean to make $4500 in a week, we derive an equation for this:

875 + x = 4500;

x is the amount of commission Jean has to get in a week to make up to $4500 in that week => x = 4500-875; x = $3625.

Let y be the amount of sales Jean has to make to get a commission of x, we derive the following equation: 0.15 × y = x.

y = x ÷ 0.15 => 3625 ÷ 0.15

y = 24166.67.

So for Jean to meet her target of $4500 in a single week, Jean needs to make a sale worth $24,166.67.

The amount of sales that Norma needs to make in a week in order to earn $4500 in a week is; 24167

How to solve algebra word problems?

We are told that;

Norma Jean makes $25 per hour

Total time worked per week = 35 hours

Commision on total sales = 15%

Basic amount earned for the 35 hours in a week = 25 * 35 = $875

Now, if the amount of sales she makes that earns her commision is x, then it means for her to earn $4500 in a single week;

875 + 0.15x = 4500

0.15x = 4500 - 875

x = (4500 - 875)/0.15

x = 24166.67

Approximating to a whole number is;

x = 24167 sales

Answers

Answer:

  1)  60°, 75°, 120°, 105°

  2)  101.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The sum of ratio units is 4+5+8+7 = 24, which corresponds to the sum of angles, 360°. Then each ratio unit must stand for 360°/24 = 15°. Multiplying the given ratio units by 15° gives the angle measures:

PLEASE ANSWER!!Read the passage and answer the questions."Everyday Things"Often, we do not scrutinize the little things that make our lives easier. We do not really recognize the value of the simple luxuries we enjoy today. When was the last time you thought about how much easier your life is because of . . . the wooden pencil in your hand? Living in a land of plenty like America makes us easy prey for ingratitude. We should show some appreciation for the little everyday things, like wooden pencils, that make written communication easier.The wooden pencil first dates back to 17th century Europe. The first wooden pencils were eraserless. Imagine the anxiety of making mistakes! It was not until the American Civil War years that erasers were added to wooden pencils. Lead pencils date back to early Roman times, when Romans wrote with lead styluses. We still call them "lead" pencils, but actually, what is inside the modernday pencil is graphite. Early pencils were merely long sticks of graphite inserted into wooden sticks that had been hollowed out by hand. Pencils were not massproduced until 1662 in Nuremberg, Germany. In 1762, George Washington used a threeinch pencil to survey the Ohio Territory. In 1812, William Monroe, a cabinetmaker of Concord, Massachusetts, began to massproduce wooden pencils in America.Even the color of the pencil today is significant. In the 19th century, China was renowned for producing the best graphite in the world. Pencil makers in the U.S. wanted to convey to consumers that they only used Chinese graphite. Therefore, they painted them yellow, a color the Chinese associate with respect and royalty. This way, American manufacturers let their buyers know that they used Chinese graphite exclusively. It is amazing how such a tradition has a profound effect on something as mundane, yet important, as pencil production. Seventyfive percent of all pencils produced in America today are yellow. Now that you know the history of that little, yellowpainted graphite stick in your hand, remind yourself once in a while to be thankful for the everyday things that people so long ago did without.Microwave OvensI never thought about my microwave oven until it stopped working one day.
