Jesse used 5 gallons of gasoline to drive 50 miles. How much gasoline will he need to travel 170 miles?

Answers

Answer 1

5/50 = x / 170

solve for x by multiplying both sides by 170

Answer 2

Jesse used 5 gallons of gasoline to drive 50 miles. the gasoline he will need to travel 170 miles will be 17 gallons.

What is the unitary method?

The unitary method is a method for solving a problem by the first value of a single unit and then finding the value by multiplying the single value.

Jesse used 5 gallons of gasoline to drive 50 miles.

Let x be the gasoline he will need to travel 170 miles

5/50 = x / 170

x = 170 (1/10)

x = 17

Hence, the gasoline he will need to travel 170 miles will be 17 gallons.

Jared has taken out a loan for his car. His monthly payments amount to $650. If his loan is for 36 months, and he paid a down payment of $400, what is the total cost of the car for Jared? A. $15,050 B. $23,800 C. $28,300

Answers

B! 650 x 36 +400 = 23,800!

Answer:

$23800.

Step-by-step explanation:

Monthly payment of loan of a car = $650

His loan is for 36 months

So, Total payment of 36 months = [tex]36 \times 650[/tex]

                                                       = [tex]23400[/tex]

He paid the down payment of amount $400

So, Total cost of the car = [tex]23400+400[/tex]

                                       = [tex]23800[/tex]

Hence the total cost of the car for Jared is $23800.

So, Option B is correct.

of the students have a blood type of O–. What fraction of the students in LaToya’s school has a blood type of O+ or O–?

Answers

[tex]\frac{11}{24}[/tex]

combine the fractions of each type by adding them

[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex]

Before we can add the fractions we require them to have the same denominator

To achieve this we require the lowest common multiple (LCM ) of 8 and 12

The LCM of 8 and 12 is 24

To change the denominators , multiply the numerator/ denominator by the appropriate value

[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3(3)}{8(3)}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{9}{24}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1(2)}{12(2)}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{24}[/tex]

Write an equation for the line parallel to the given line that contains C.
C (3, 6)​; y= -2 x + 7

Answers

y = - 2x + 12

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

y = - 2x + 7 is in this form with slope m = - 2

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = - 2x + c is the partial equation.

To find c, substitute (3, 6 ) into the partial equation

6 = - 6 + c ⇒ c = 6 + 6 = 12

y = - 2x + 12 ← equation of parallel line

What is the solution of sqrt1-3x=x+3

Answers

x = - 1

given [tex]\sqrt{(1-3x)}[/tex] = x + 3

square both sides

1 - 3x = (x + 3 )² ( expand right side using FOIL )

1 - 3x = x² + 6x + 9 ( subtract 1 - 3x from both sides )

0 = x² + 9x + 8

0 = ( x + 1)(x + 8)

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = -1

x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = - 8

As a check

substitute these values into the equation and if both sides are equal then they are the solutions

x = - 1 : [tex]\sqrt{1+3 }[/tex] = 2 and - 1 + 3 = 2 ← true

x = - 8 : [tex]\sqrt{1+24}[/tex] = 5 and - 8 + 3 = -5 ← false

Answers

If all were general laborers, the payroll would be 93·34 = 3162 per day. The payroll is actually 3771 -3162 = 609 more than that.

Each equipment operator makes 29 more than a laborer, so there must be ...

... 609/29 = 21 heavy equipment operators

and 34 -21 = 13 general laborers

_____

If you write an equation for the number of heavy equipment operators (h), you get the same result in the same way. 34-h is the number of laborers

... 122h + 93(34 -h) = 3771 . . . equation for total daily payroll

D. (X +5)-(3X +6)

E. (4/8)x . . . . . but not if you mean 4/(8x)

_____

* For division, the result may be a polynomial. In the specific example given here for B, it is not.

Final answer:

The term closure in mathematics refers to the property of a set, in this case, polynomials, where doing certain operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication) with any numbers from the set always yields a number within the set. The options demonstrating closure in a polynomial are A, C, D, E, all but option B, which implies division.

Explanation:

The term 'closure' in mathematics refers to the property of a set under an operation where the operation performed on any numbers in the set always produces a number that is also in that set. In the case of polynomials, the operations could be addition, subtraction, or multiplication.

The expressions that demonstrate closure in a polynomial for addition, subtraction, and multiplication are all but option B. Option B, '(x^2+2) over (X -1)', isn't representative of closure in a polynomial as it implies a division operation. Polynomial closure doesn't include division because it can produce numbers outside the original set.

So, the correct answers are A.(x^2+2) (x-1), C.(x+1) plus (X^2-3X -2), D.(X +5)-(3X +6) and E.4/8x as they illustrate closure by either multiplication of two polynomials, addition of two polynomials, or subtraction of two polynomials.

Explain why P(A|D) and P(D|A) from the table below are not equal.

Answers

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the definition for conditional probability.

We have P(A/D) = P(A and D)/P(D)

P(AD) = 2/17

P(A) = 8/17 and P(D) = 10/17

From the definition of conditional probability,

P(A/D) = P(AD)/P(D) = 2/17 divided by 10/17 = 1/5

But P(D/A) = P(AD)/P(A) = 2/17 divided by 8/17 = 1/4

Hence the two are not equal.

This is because there is a difference in the denominators

P(A|D) and P(D|A) from the table are not equal because the total number of A and D are not equal

From the table, we have the following parameters:

n(A) = 8n(D) = 10n(A and D) = 2

P(A|D) and P(D|A) are both conditional probabilities, and they are calculated using:

[tex]P(A|D) = \frac{n(A\ and\ D)}{n(D)}[/tex]

[tex]P(D|A) = \frac{n(A\ and\ D)}{n(A)}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]P(A|D) = \frac{2}{10}[/tex]

[tex]P(A|D) = 0.2[/tex]

[tex]P(D|A) = \frac{2}{8}[/tex]

[tex]P(D|A) = 0.25[/tex]

From the above computations, we have:

[tex]P(D|A) \ne P(A|D)[/tex]

Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving the equation mean finding the value of x

Equation given is:

[tex]-3x+1+10x=x+4[/tex]

Now what we need to do is take the values with x in it to the left side of the equation and the other numbers to the right side of the equation.

[tex]-3x+10x-x=4-1[/tex]

Now simplify values with x and the numbers.

[tex]6x=3[/tex]

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

Therefore [tex]x=[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex][/tex]

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

simplify the left side by collecting like terms

7x + 1 = x + 4 ( subtract x from both sides )

6x + 1 = 4 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

6x = 3 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = [tex]\frac{3}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

2.Find the triangle bounded by the y-axis the line f(x)=9- 6/7x and the line perpendicular to it that passes through the origin

Answers

First.

We need to find the triangle bounded by the y-axis the line [tex]f(x)=9-\frac{6}{7}x[/tex] and the line perpendicular to it that passes through the origin.

This triangle is illustrated in the First Figure bellow. The triangle has been dotted with black dots. So, let's identify each part of this graph:


The y-axis has been identified by the green line.The line [tex]f(x)=9-\frac{6}{7}x[/tex] has been identified by the red line.To plot the line perpendicular to the previous one that passes through the origin, we need to know that the product of the slopes of two perpendicular lines is [tex]m_{1}m_{2}=-1 \therefore Since \ m_{1}=-\frac{6}{7} \ then \ m_{2}=\frac{7}{6}[/tex]

        Therefore, this line is the blue one and is written as:

         [tex]f(x)=\frac{7}{6}x[/tex]


Second.a.

To find [tex]y(t)[/tex] we need to find the slope and y-intercept. So, taking two points:

[tex]P_{1}(15,150) \ and \ P_{2}(25,450) \\ \\m=\frac{450-150}{25-15}=30[/tex]


So:

[tex]Using \ P_{1}(15,150) \\\\y=30t+b\\\\150=30(15)+b \therefore b=-300 \\\\\boxed{y(t)=30t-300}[/tex]


Third.b.

The y-intercept is [tex]b=-300[/tex] and has been calculated above. This value represents the profit in thousands of dollars in 1980, that is, there is no any profit or there is a lost of $300.000.


Fourth.c.

The x-intercept can be found when y=0 (year 1980), that is:

[tex]y(t)=30t-300 \\\\0=30t-300 \therefore t=10[/tex]


This value shows that there is no any profit for the company at the year that represents t=10 (year 1990), because at this point the company starts earning money.


Fifth.d.

The slope of this function is [tex]m=30[/tex]


This value tells you that the profit increases $30.000 each year.
