Meg constructed triangle POQ and then used compass and straight edge to accurately construct line segment OS, as shown in the figure below. Which could be a measure of POS and angle POQ?
Answers
Answer:
The answer is C
Step-by-step explanation:
The measurement of angle POS is 20 and POQ is 40
OS is an angle bisector of ∠POQ. This means it splits ∠POQ into two congruent pieces.
This tells us that ∠POS+∠SOQ = ∠POS+∠POS = ∠POQ.
If m∠POS = 20, this means that m∠POQ = 20+20 = 40°.
Answer:
The correct option is C) m∠POS = 20°, m∠POQ = 40°,
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided figure.
Meg constructed triangle POQ and then used a compass and straightedge to accurately construct line segment OS.
From the given figure it is clear that OS is angle bisector of POQ,
[tex]\angle POQ=\angle POS+\angle QOS[/tex]
[tex]\angle POS=\angle QOS[/tex] ∴ angle bisector
[tex]\angle POQ=\angle POS+\angle POS=2\angle POS[/tex]
Thus, the measure of ∠POQ is double the measure of ∠POS.
There is only one option in which m∠POQ is double the m∠POS.
Therefore, the correct option is C) m∠POS = 20°, m∠POQ = 40°,

A committee organizing a marathon has 14 jugs of water and 20 jugs of sports drink. The committee would like to set up a number of refreshment stations along the marathon course, with the same combination of jugs of water and jugs of sports drink at each station, with no beverages left over. What is the greatest number of refreshment stations that can be set up?
Answers
Answer:
2 stations with 7 of jugs of water and 10 of sports drink in each station
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets start with the jugs of water, to have the same amount in each station you need have a number of station that divide for 14 the remainder or "left over" equal to 0, or in other words multiple of 14 in the interval 1 to 14
multiples of 14 : 1, 2, 7 and 14
so you can have
1 station with 14 jugs of water
2 stations with 7 jugs of water each
7 stations with 2 jugs of water each
14 station with 1 jugs of water each
Now we need to do the same for the 20 jugs of sports drink
multiple of 20 in the interval 1 to 20: 1,2,4,5,10 and 20
so you can have:
1 station with 20 jugs of sports drink
2 stations with 10 jugs of sports drink
4 stations with 5 jugs of sports drink
5 station with 4 jugs of sports drink
10 station with 2 jugs of sports drink
20 stations with 1 jugs of sports drink
So we have that both cases, water and sport drinks have coincidence of 1 or 2 stations, and the maximum of both is 2 stations with 7 jugs of water and 10 of sports drink each
Final answer:
To determine the greatest number of refreshment stations that can be set up, we find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 14 jugs of water and 20 jugs of sports drink, which is 2. Therefore, the committee can set up 7 refreshment stations with 1 jug of water and 2 jugs of sports drink at each.
Explanation:
The committee has 14 jugs of water and 20 jugs of sports drink and wants to set up the greatest number of refreshment stations along the marathon course without any beverages left over. To find this solution, we need to determine the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the two quantities of jugs because each station must have the same combination of jugs of water and sports drink.
First, list the factors of each number:
Factors of 14: 1, 2, 7, 14
Factors of 20: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20
The largest common factor is 2, which means the refreshment stations can have a combination of 1 jug of water and 2 jugs of sports drink. So, the committee can set up 7 refreshment stations (14 jugs of water / 2 per station = 7 stations; and 20 jugs of sports drink / 2 per station = 10 stations, but limited by the smaller number of jugs of water).

Step-by-step explanation:
The first digit must be 7. The sum of the unknown digits is then 31-7 = 24. Since this represents 3 pairs of digits (a thousands period digit and a units period digit), each pair must total 24/3 = 8.
There are two ways that odd numbers can total 8: 1+7 = 3+5 = 8. Since there is no restriction on the digits other than they must be the same in any period and they must be odd, there are 4 ways the 2 pairs of digits can be arranged into a number:

The Dulac Box plant produces 500 cypress packing boxes in two-10 hour shifts. Due to higher demand, Dulac has decided to operate three eight-hour shifts instead. Dulac is now able to produce 600 boxes per day. What has happened to production:a. It has increased by 50 sets/shiftb. It has increased by 20 percentc. It has increased by 37.5 sets/hrd. It has decreased by 8.3 percente. It has decreased by 9.1 percent.
Answers
Answer:
Production has increased 20/day
Step-by-step explanation:
In the first scenario production is 500/day and productivity 25 set/hour. After the changes, production is 600/day and 25 set/hour.
So productivity remains the same, nevertheless, as there are more productive hours per day, production raises, in this case the can be calculated as (New Production-Old Production)/Old Production=(600-500)/500=100/500=0.2=20%.
As productivity remains the same, you do not ge more sets/shift, as shifts are shorter (8 instead of hours, so you get 200/shift instead of 250/shift). The rest of the option is false as productivity remains constant

A.. 25, 45.......500
B. 20, 33,.., 332
C. 13, 33, , 488
D. 13, 33, ..., 493
Answers
Answer: Option 'D' is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
First term = 13
Increase each time = 20
Number of clients = 25
So, it forms an arithmetic progression:
So, 25 th term would be
[tex]a_{25}=a+(n-1)d\\\\a_{25}=13+(25-1)\times 20\\\\a_{25}=13+24\times 20\\\\a_{25}=13+480\\\\a_{25}=493[/tex]
Hence, list would look like 13,33,............493.
Therefore, Option 'D' is correct.
Genghis Khan organized his men into groups of 10 soldiers under a "leader of 10." Ten "leaders of 10" were under a "leader of 100." Ten "leaders of 100" were under a "leader of 1000." *(a) If Khan had an army of 10,000 soldiers at the lowest level, how many men in total were under him in his organization? (b) If Khan had an army of 5763 soldiers at the lowest level, how many men in total were under him in his organization? Assume that the groups of 10 should contain 10 if possible, but that one group at each level may need to contain fewer.
Answers
Genghis Khan's army organizational structure can be used to calculate the total number of men under him: For an army of 10,000 soldiers, the total is 11,110 men; for an army of 5,763 soldiers, it is 6,404 men.
To solve both parts of the student's question, we use the military organizational structure implemented by Genghis Khan that is based on the 'decimal' system. We start with the lowest level groups of 10 soldiers and move up in orders of magnitude (10, 100, 1,000, and 10,000).
Part (a): Army of 10,000 soldiers
Groups of 10: There are 1,000 groups of 10 in an army of 10,000 soldiers.
Leaders of 10: Each group of 10 has 1 leader, resulting in 1,000 leaders of 10.
Groups of 100: 1,000 leaders of 10 make up 100 groups of 100 (because 1,000/10 = 100).
Leaders of 100: There are 100 leaders of 100.
Groups of 1,000: 100 leaders of 100 make up 10 groups of 1,000 (because 100/10 = 10).
Leaders of 1,000: There are 10 leaders of 1,000.
Adding it all together: 10,000 soldiers + 1,000 leaders of 10 + 100 leaders of 100 + 10 leaders of 1,000 = 11,110 total men under the command of Khan for an army of 10,000.
Part (b): Army of 5,763 soldiers
Groups of 10: There are 576 full groups of 10 and 1 incomplete group (with 3 soldiers), resulting in 577 groups.
Leaders of 10: There are 577 leaders of 10.
Groups of 100: 577 leaders of 10 make up 57 full groups of 100 and 1 incomplete group (with 7 leaders of 10), resulting in 58 groups.
Leaders of 100: There are 58 leaders of 100.
Groups of 1,000: 58 leaders of 100 make up 5 full groups of 1,000 and 1 incomplete group (with 8 leaders of 100), resulting in 6 groups.
Leaders of 1,000: There are 6 leaders of 1,000.
Adding it all together: 5,763 soldiers + 577 leaders of 10 + 58 leaders of 100 + 6 leaders of 1,000 = 6,404 total men under the command of Khan for an army of 5,763 soldiers.
If the number of $8 child tickets is 17 less than 3 times the number of $12 adult tickets and the theater took in $584, how many of each ticket were sold?
Answers
Answer:
The number of child tickets sold was 43 and the number of adult tickets sold was 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the number of child tickets sold
y ----> the number of adult tickets sold
we know that
[tex]x=3y-17[/tex] -----> equation A
[tex]8x+12y=584[/tex] ----> equation B
Solve the system by graphing
Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs
The solution is the point (43,20)
see the attached figure
therefore
The number of child tickets sold was 43 and the number of adult tickets sold was 20
Answer:
Number of child tickets sold = 43
Number of adult tickets sold = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of child ticket be c and number of adult ticket be a,
Given that the number of $8 child tickets is 17 less than 3 times the number of $12 adult tickets,
c = 3a - 17
3a - c = 17 ----------------------eqn 1
The theater received $584
That is
8 c + 12 a = 584 ----------------------eqn 2
eqn 2 /4
2 c + 3 a = 146 ----------------------eqn 3
eqn 3 - eqn 1 gives
2 c + 3 a - (3a - c) = 146 - 17
3 c = 129
c = 43
Substituting in eqn 1
3 x a - 43 = 17
3a = 60
a = 20
Number of child tickets sold = 43
Number of adult tickets sold = 20

The inequality that represents the graph is:
[tex]y\geq x+3[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:By looking at the graph we observe that the graph is a solid line which passes through the point (-1,0) and (1,2).This means that the inequality is a inequality with a equality sign(i.e. not strict)
This means that the equation of line is:
[tex]y-2=\dfrac{2-0}{1-(-1)}\times (x-(-1))\\\\y-2=\dfrac{2}{2}\times (x+1)\\\\y-2=x+1\\\\y=x+1+2\\\\y=x+3[/tex]
The shaded region is away from the origin.
This means that the inequality does not pass the zero test.
Hence, the inequality is:

An equation of the secant line containing (4, h(4)) and (6, h(6)) is
Answers
Answer:
y= (h(6)-h(4))/2x +C
Where C=-2*h(6)+3*h(4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The secant line is the line that meets a function (in this case h(x) ) in two points, so we have to apply the ecuation of a straigt line that meets two points:
y-y1 = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) * (x-x1)
In this case X1=4 , x2=6, y1 = h(4) and y2= h(6)
So
y-h(4)= 1/2 (h(6)-h(4)) * (x-4)
y-h(4)= 1/2 (h(6)-h(4)) x- 2 *(h(6)-h(4))
y-h(4)= 1/2 (h(6)-h(4)) x- 2 (h(6) + 2h(4))
y= 1/2 (h(6)-h(4)) x- 2 h(6) + 2h(4) + h(4)
y= 1/2 (h(6)-h(4)) x- 2 h(6) + 3h(4)

Today a typical family of four spends $897.20/ month for food. If inflation occurs at the rate of 3%/ year over the next 6 years, how much should the typical family of four expect to spend for food 6 years from now?
Answers
Answer:
1071.30 per month
Step-by-step explanation:
The multiplier each year is 1 + .03 = 1.03. After 6 years, the cost has been multiplied by that factor 6 times, so has been multiplied by 1.03⁶ ≈ 1.194052.
$897.20 × 1.194052 ≈ $1071.30
The typical family of four should expect to spend $1,056.27 per month for food six years from now.
1. Calculate the inflation factor using the formula: [tex]\( (1 + \text{inflation rate})^{\text{number of years}} \).[/tex]
- Inflation rate = 3% or 0.03
- Number of years = 6
- Inflation factor = [tex]\( (1 + 0.03)^6 = 1.191016 \)[/tex]
2. Multiply the current monthly food expenditure by the inflation factor to find the expected expenditure six years from now.
- Current expenditure = $897.20/month
- Expected expenditure = $897.20 × 1.191016 = $1,056.27/month
Therefore, the typical family of four should expect to spend $1,056.27 per month for food six years from now if inflation occurs at a rate of 3% per year.

A solar water heater costs about $6240 to install (after rebates). A traditional gas water heater costs about $850 and costs about $320 per year to run. The average annual cost to run the solar water heater is about $75
Create total cost functions for each of the water heaters as a function of the number of years that the heater is used
Answers
Answer:
For solar: [tex]S(x)=6240+75x[/tex]
For traditional: [tex]T(y)=850+320y[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost to install solar water heater = $6240
The average annual cost to run the solar water heater is about = $75
Total cost to run x years : [tex]S(x)=6240+75x[/tex]
A traditional gas water heater costs about = $850
The average annual cost to run = $320
Total cost to run y years : [tex]T(y)=850+320y[/tex]
1. The total cost of a solar water heater, including installation and annual running costs, can be calculated as $6240 + ($75 * years).
2. The total cost of a traditional gas water heater, including installation and annual running costs, can be calculated as $850 + ($320 * years).
Given that,
Solar water heater:
Installation cost: $6240 (after rebates)
Annual running cost: $75
Traditional gas water heater:
Installation cost: $850
Annual running cost: $320
Let's create the total cost functions for each water heater as a function of the number of years.
For the solar water heater, the total cost (TC) can be calculated as:
TC_solar(years) = installation cost + (annual running cost * years)
Given the installation cost of $6240 and annual running cost of $75,
The total cost function for the solar water heater becomes:
TC_solar(years) = $6240 + ($75 * years)
For the traditional gas water heater, the total cost (TC) can be calculated as:
TC_gas(years) = installation cost + (annual running cost * years)
Given the installation cost of $850 and annual running cost of $320,
So, The total cost function for the gas water heater becomes:
TC_gas(years) = $850 + ($320 * years)
These equations allow you to determine the total cost of each water heater based on the number of years they are used.

Chocolates costing $8 per pound are to be mixed with chocolates costing $3 per pound to make a 20 pound mixture. If the mixture is to sell for $5 per pound, how many pounds of each chocolate should be used? Which of the following equations could be used to solve the problem? 8x + 3x = 5(20) 8x + 3(20) = 5(x + 20) 8x + 3(20 - x) = 5(20)
Answers
Answer:
8x + 3(20 - x) = 5(20)
Step-by-step explanation:
If x represents the number of pounds of $8 chocolates, then (20-x) is the number of pounds of $3 chocolates. The cost of the mix attributable to the $8 chocolates will be 8x, and the cost associated with the $3 chocolates will be 3(20-x). The sum of these costs is the cost of the 20 pounds of mix: $5×20.
In equation form, this is ...
8x + 3(20-x) = 5(20)
_____
The solution is x=8, so 8 lb of $8 chocolates should be mixed with 12 lb of $3 chocolates to make a mix worth $5 per pound.
Final answer:
The correct equation to determine the pounds of each type of chocolate for the mixture is 8x + 3(20 - x) = 5(20), where x represents the pounds of the $8 chocolate.
Explanation:
To solve for how many pounds of each type of chocolate should be used in the mixture, let's designate x as the number of pounds of the $8 chocolate and 20-x as the number of pounds of the $3 chocolate. The total cost of the $8 chocolate will be 8x dollars, and the total cost of the $3 chocolate will be 3(20-x) dollars. The total sales price for the 20-pound mixture must be $5 per pound, which equals $100 (since 20 pounds × $5 per pound = $100). Therefore, the correct equation that represents the situation is 8x + 3(20 - x) = 5(20).
Let's break down this equation:
The $8 chocolate: 8x dollars
The $3 chocolate: 3(20 - x) dollars
Total cost: 8x + 3(20 - x)
The mixture sells for: $5 × 20
The equation balances the cost of both chocolates with the selling price of the mixture.

A map of a rectangular park has a length of 4 inches and a width olo and a width of 6 inches. It uses a scale of 1 inch for every 30 miles. a. What is the actual area of the park? Show how you know.
Answers
Answer:
The actual area of the park is 21,600 miles square.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Calculate the area of the park
Area of rectangle = Length x width
Length = 4 inches
Width = 6 inches
Scale factor is given as, 1 inch = 30 miles.
So, converting the length and width in miles by using the scale factor, we get
Length = 4 * 30 = 120 miles
Width = 6 * 30 = 180 miles
The formula of finding the area of an rectangle is:
Area = length x width
By putting the values in equation, we get
Area = 120 x 180
Area = 21,600 miles square
Therefore, the actual area of the park is 21,600 miles square.

Mr. Johnson has his newspaper delivered every day. He determines the probability the newspaper is on his front porch is 0.64. The rest of the time he finds the newspaper somewhere on his lawn. What is the probability that Mr. Johnson finds his newspaper on his lawn?
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of getting the newspaper on his front porch = P(A) = 0.64
Probability of finding the newspaper on his lawn = P(B) =? (We don't know, this is what we have to find.)
Total probability = 1
Formula, P(A) + P(B) = 1
Let's put all values in this formula,
0.64 + P(B) = 1
P(B) = 1 - 0.64
P(B) = 0.36
Thus, the probablity that Mr. Johnson finds his newspaper on his lawn is 0.36 or 36%.
An automobile accelerates from rest at 1.7 m/s 2 for 22 s. The speed is then held constant for 29 s, after which there is an acceleration of −5.8 m/s 2 until the automobile stops. What total distance was traveled? Answer in units of km.
Answers
After 22 s, the car has velocity
[tex]v=\left(1.7\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(22\,\mathrm s)=36.4\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}[/tex]
In this time, it will have traveled a distance of
[tex]\dfrac12\left(1.7\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(22\,\mathrm s)^2=411.4\,\mathrm m[/tex]
Over the next 29 s, the car moves at a constant velocity of 36.4 m/s, so that it covers a distance of
[tex]\left(36.4\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(29\,\mathrm s)=1055.6\,\mathrm m[/tex]
so that after the first 51 s, the car will have moved 1467 m.
After the 29 s interval of constant speed, the car's negative acceleration kicks in, so that its velocity at time [tex]t[/tex] is
[tex]v(t)=36.4\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}+\left(-5.8\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t[/tex]
The car comes to rest when [tex]v(t)=0[/tex]:
[tex]36.4-5.8t=0\implies t=6.3[/tex]
That is, it comes to rest about 6.3 s after the first 51 s. In this interval, it will have traveled
[tex]\left(36.4\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(6.3\,\mathrm s)+\dfrac12\left(-5.8\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(6.3\,\mathrm s)^2=114.2\,\mathrm m[/tex]
so that after 57.3 s, the total distance traveled by the car is 1581.2 m, or about 1.6 km.

Hi, my friend! The answer to this questions are "0.125" and "12.5%"
Step-by-step explanation:
First, if you divide 1 by 8 using a calculator, you will see that the result will be 0.125. Also, the option 12,5% is correct because de symbol "%" means "divided by 100". If you check in the calculator, 12.5 divided by 100 will also be 0.125.
Hoping to be clear! Good luck!
Final answer:
Only 0.125 and 12.5% are equivalent to the fraction 1/8. This is because they both reflect a '125-like' number pattern which is crucial when identifying representations of 1/8 in decimal or percentage form.
Explanation:
The fraction 1/8 is equivalent to a few different representations in decimal and percentage forms.
To identify which options among 0.125, 0.18, 12.5%, and 1.25% are equivalent to 1/8, we should look for a number pattern resembling '125' as it indicates a connection to the fraction 1/8 or its reciprocal nature.
So, 0.125 is exactly 1/8 as a decimal, and 12.5% represents 1/8 in percentage form because 12.5% is 12.5 parts per 100, which can be equated to 125 parts per 1000, resembling the multiplication of 1000 by the reciprocal of 8, that is 0.125.
Therefore, the options 0.125 and 12.5% are equivalent to 1/8.

£130 is divided between Henry, Gavin & Jim so that Henry gets twice as much as Gavin, and Gavin gets three times as much as Jim. How much does Henry get?
Answers
Answer:
The answer to your question is: Henry gets £ 78
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Henry = H
Gavin = G
Jim = J
Henry + Gavin + Jim = £ 130
H = 2G
G = 3J
Process
Write an equation in terms of G
H + G + J = 130
2G + G + G/3 = 130
Solve it for G
3( 2G + G + G/3 = 130)
6G + 3G + G = 390
10G = 390
G = 390 / 10
G = £39
H = 2G = 2(39)
H = £78
J = G/3
J = 39/3
J = £13
Final answer:
By setting up and solving algebraic equations, we find that Henry receives £78, which is twice the amount that Gavin receives and six times the amount that Jim receives from the total sum of £130.
Explanation:
Let's solve the problem by denoting Jim's share of the money as x. According to the problem, Gavin gets triple the amount of money that Jim gets, which means Gavin gets 3x. Henry gets twice as much as Gavin, so he gets 2(3x) or 6x. The total amount of money is £130 and the sum of their shares is x + 3x + 6x = 10x. Setting up the equation:
10x = £130,
we find that x, Jim's share, is £130/10 = £13. Gavin's share is 3 times Jim's: 3 × £13 = £39, and Henry's share is 6 times Jim's: 6 × £13 = £78. So Henry gets £78.
Many states have programs for assessing the skills of students in various grades. The Indiana Statewide Testing for Educational Progress (ISTEP) is one such program. In a recent year, 76,531 tenth-grade Indiana students took the English/language arts exam. The mean score was 572 and the standard deviation was 51. Use the fact that the ISTEP scores are approximately Normal, N(572, 51). Find the proportion of students who have scores between 500 and 650.
Answers
Answer:
P ( 500<X<650 ) = 0.8577
Step-by-step explanation:
Since μ=572 and σ=51 we have:
P ( 500<X<650 ) = P ( 500−572< X−μ<650−572 )
[tex]\RightarrowP ( \frac{500-572}{51} < \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{650-572}{51})[/tex]
⇒ P ( 500<X<650 ) = P ( −1.41<Z<1.53 )
Now, Using the standard normal table to conclude that:
P ( −1.41< Z <1.53 ) = 0.8577
Final answer:
Approximately 85.77% of Indiana tenth-grade students scored between 500 and 650 on the English/language arts ISTEP exam, as calculated by converting the given scores to z-scores and finding the proportion within the standard normal distribution.
Explanation:
To find the proportion of Indiana tenth-grade students who scored between 500 and 650 on the English/language arts exam, given that the ISTEP scores are approximately normal with a mean (μ) of 572 and a standard deviation (σ) of 51, we can use the standard normal distribution.
First, we'll convert the scores to z-scores using the formula z = (X - μ) / σ where X is the score.
For X=500, the z-score would be (500 - 572) / 51 ≈ -1.41.For X=650, the z-score would be (650 - 572) / 51 ≈ 1.53.Then we'll look up these z-scores in a standard normal distribution table or use a calculator with normal distribution functions to find the proportion of students whose scores fall between these two z-scores. The table or calculator will provide us with the areas under the curve to the left of each z-score.
Let's assume the area to the left of z=-1.41 is approximately 0.0793 (7.93%) and to the left of z=1.53 is approximately 0.937 (93.7%). To find the proportion between 500 and 650, we'll subtract the smaller area from the larger one:
Proportion = Area to the left of z=1.53 - Area to the left of z=-1.41 = 0.937 - 0.0793 = 0.8577 or 85.77%
Therefore, approximately 85.77% of the students scored between 500 and 650 on the ISTEP English/language arts exam.
