of a mile
How many laps does Jeffery need to run?​

Answers

Answer:

6 laps

Step-by-step explanation:

Final answer:

Jeffery needs to run 3 laps.

Explanation:

To find the number of laps that Jeffery needs to run, we can set up a proportion. We know that 1 lap is equal to 1 tenth of a mile, so we can set up the following proportion:

1 lap / 1 tenth mile = x laps / 3 fifths mile

Cross-multiplying and solving for x, we get:

x = (1 lap * 3 fifths mile) / (1 tenth mile)

x = 3 laps / 1 lap

x = 3

Therefore, Jeffery needs to run 3 laps.

Two semicircles are placed in a rectangle. The width of the rectangle is 7 cm.

Find the area of the shaded region. Use the value 3.14 for pi , and do not round your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Total length of the rectangle = 14+14= 28cm

width= 7 cm

Area of the rectangle = 28×7cm²

= 196 cm²

Area of 2 semicircles = Area of 1 circle

= π(7)² = 3.14×49= 153.86cm²

Area of the shaded region = 196-153.86

= 42.14 cm²

Answer: 42.14 [tex]cm^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the width of the rectangle is 7 cm, the semi-circle's radius is also 7 cm.

Let's calculate the area of the two semi-circles, which in total makes a whole circle.

The formula for a circle is [tex]a=2\pi r^2[/tex]

Since r = 7, plug it in the formula:

[tex]a=2\pi (7)^2[/tex]

[tex]a=49\pi =153.86 cm^2[/tex]

Now, to figure out the length of the rectangle, look at the semi-circles. Their radius is 7 cm, so their diameter is 14 cm. We have two semi-circles with the diameter (14 cm), so we can say that the width is 28 cm.

Area of a rectangle: [tex]a=lw[/tex]

[tex]a=7*28=196cm^2[/tex]

To find the area of the shaded region, we subtract the area of the semi-circles to the rectangle, which should be:

[tex]196 - 153.86=42.14 cm^2[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

a) [tex]\sqrt{64+x^2}[/tex]

b) 15

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We know that AB = 8 and BC = x. We can use the Pythagorean Theorem, which states that for a right triangle with sides a, b, and c: [tex]a^2 +b^2=c^2[/tex] , where a and b are the shortest sides and c is the longest.

Here, AB = a = 8 and BC = b = x. So, AC = c. Then:

[tex]AB^2+BC^2=AC^2[/tex]

[tex]8^2+x^2=AC^2[/tex]

[tex]AC=\sqrt{64+x^2}[/tex]

b) We know that AC - AB = 9. Since AB = 8, then AC = 9 + 8 = 17. We also have the expression from above, so set them equal:

[tex]AC=\sqrt{64+x^2}=17[/tex]

[tex]64+x^2=289[/tex]

[tex]x^2=225[/tex]

x = 15

Hope this helps!

Answer:

sqrt(x^2 +64) = AC

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem since this is a right triangle

a^2 + b^2 =c^2  a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

We know the legs are x and 8

x^2 + 8^2 = AC^2

x^2 + 64= AC^2

Solving for AC

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2 + 64) = sqrt(AC^2)

sqrt(x^2 +64) = AC

We are given AC - AB = 9

We know AB = 8

AC -8 =9

Add 8 to each side

AC -8+8 = 9+8

AC = 17

AC is the hypotenuse,

x^2 + 64= AC^2

x^2 +64 = 17^2

x^2 +64 = 289

Subtract 64  from each side

x^2 +64-64 = 289-64

x^2 =225

Take the square root

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(225)

x =15

Linda shoots an arrow at a target in an archery competition. The arc of the arrow can be modeled by the equation y= -0.02x to the power of 2 + 0.65+4 where x is the horizontal distance (in meters) from Linda and y is the height (in meters) of the arrow. How far from Linda does the arrow hit the ground? Round to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

37.8metres

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc of the arrow can be modeled by the equation:

y=-0.02x²+0.65x+4

Where x is the horizontal distance (in meters) from Linda and y is the height (in meters) of the arrow.

The arrow hits the ground when its height (y) is zero.

Therefore, we determine the value(s) of x for which:

y=-0.02x²+0.65x+4=0

Using a calculator to solve the quadratic equation:

x=37.79 or -5.29

Since the distance cannot be a negative value, we ignore -5.29.

The distance from Linda when the arrow hits the ground is 37.8metres (to the nearest tenth)

Answer:

37.8 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

- The arc trajectory of the arrow is modeled by:

                    y = -0.02x^2 + 0.65x + 4

Where, x is the horizontal distance (in meters) from Linda

            y is the height (in meters) of the arrow

Find:-

How far from Linda does the arrow hit the ground? Round to the nearest tenth.

Solution:-

- We are to determine the range of the projectile trajectory of the arrow. The maximum distance "x_max" occurs when the arrow hits the ground.

- Set the trajectory height of arrow from linda , y = 0:

                   0 = -0.02x^2 + 0.65x + 4

- Solve the quadratic equation:

                   x = -5.29 m , x = 37.8 m

- The negative distance x lies at the back of Linda and hence can be ignored. The maximum distance travelled by the arrow would be = 37.8 m

Then the friend asked about the bears." there were a seventh as many bears as other animals", replied the trainer. Then the friend asked about the elephants. How should the trainer respond to the question?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- We will denote:

          Number of Lions = x

          Number of bears = y

          Number of elephants = z

          Any other animal = T

- Now we will mathematically each statement given by the trainer.

Statement 1:

"7 times as many lions than other animals (not lions)."

- There were 7 times as many lions than any other animals i.e ( bears and elephants). So we can express:

                       x = 7*( x + y + T)   .... E 1

Statement 2:

"there were a seventh as many bears as other animals"

- There were 1/7 as many bears than any other animals i.e ( lions and elephants). So we can express:

                       y = (x+z+T) / 7  ... E2

- Now combine two decrypted mathematical expressions.

                       x + y + z = T

                       7T + T/7 + z = T

A pizza is 14 inches in diameter. Each square inch of pizza has 14.04 calories. If each slice contains about 270 calories, how many slices is the pizza cut into?

Answers

Answer:

8 slices

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, we first need to know the area covered by the pizza.

Since it is circular in shape, we use the formula for the area of a circle.

Mathematically area of a circle = pi * r^2

Here, we were given the diameter but we know that D = 2r or r = D/2. This shows that the radius would be 14/2 = 7 inches

Now the area of the pizza is 22/7 * 7 * 7 = 22 * 7 = 154 square inch

Now we proceed to calculate the amount in calories present in the pizza;

That would be 154 * 14.04 = 2162.16 calories

one slice has 270 calories; The number of slices in 2162.16 calories would be 2162.16/270 = 8.008 which is approximately 8 slices

sin θ = (√21) / 5

tan θ = (√21) / 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember the formulas for the trigonometry ratios with SohCahToa:

sin θ = opposite / hypotenuse

cos θ = adjacent / hypotenuse

tan θ = opposite / adjacent

If cos θ = 2/5, then:

adjacent = 2

hypotenuse = 5

Remember all right triangles follow the Pythagorean Theorem. So if you are missing one side, you can solve.

Let's find the opposite side.

a² + b² = c²

2² + b² = 5²

4 + b² = 25

b² = 21

b = √21

opposite = √21

Now we know all three sides. Use the trigonometry ratios to find sine and tangent.

sin θ = opposite / hypotenuse

sin θ = (√21) / 5

tan θ = opposite / adjacent

tan θ = (√21) / 2

in a geometric sequence, the fourth term is 8 times the first term. the sum of the first 10 terms is 2557.5. find the 10th term of this sequence.

Answers

Answer: 1280

Step-by-step explanation:

The fourth term is 8 times the first term.

The fourth term = [tex]ar^3[/tex]

[tex]ar^{3} = 8a[/tex]

To find the common ratio:

∴ [tex]\frac{ar^3}{a} = \frac{8a}{a}\\[/tex]

∴ [tex]r^3 = 8\\r = 2\\[/tex]

Common ratio = 2

To find the nth number of terms = [tex]\frac{a(r^n -1)}{r-1\\}[/tex]

∴ [tex]\frac{a(2^{10} -1)}{2-1}[/tex]

∴ [tex]1023a\\[/tex]

The sum of 10 terms = 1023a

The sum of 10 terms = 2557.5

∵ 2557.5 = 1023a

∵ [tex]a = \frac{5}{2}[/tex]

To find the 10th term:

∴ [tex]ar^9\\[/tex]

∴ [tex]\frac{5}{2} *2^9[/tex]

⇒ 1280   ║ answer.

The 10th term of the sequence is 1280

From the question given above, we were told that the fourth term is 8 times the first term. This can be written as:

T₄ = 8a

But

T₄ = ar³

a => is the first term

r => is the common ratio

Thus,

ar³ = 8a

Solving for the common ratio (r):

ar³ = 8a

Divide both side by a

r³ = 8

Take the cube root of both side

r = ³√8

r = 2

Thus, the common ratio (r) is 2

Next, we shall determine the first term (a). This can be obtained as follow:

Sum of 10th term (S₁₀) = 2557.5

Common ratio (r) = 2

Number of term (n) = 10

First term (a) =?

Sₙ = a[rⁿ – 1] / r – 1

2557.5 = a[2¹⁰ – 1] / 2 – 1

2557.5 = a[1024 – 1]

2557.5 = 1023a

Divide both side by 1023

a = 2557.5 / 1023

a = 2.5

Thus, the first term is 2.5

Finally, we shall determine the 10th term of the sequence. This can be obtained as follow:

Common ratio (r) = 2

First term (a) = 2.5

10th term (T₁₀) =?

T₁₀ = ar⁹

T₁₀ = 2.5 × 2⁹

T₁₀ = 2.5 × 512

T₁₀ = 1280

Therefore, the 10th term of the sequence is 1280

After two numbers are removed from the list 9,13,15,17,19,23,31,49, the average and the median each increase by 2. What is the product of the two numbers that were removed?

Answers

Answer:

247

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We can begin by finding the average and median before two numbers are removed.

(9 + 13 + 15 + 17 + 19 + 23 + 31 + 49) / 8  = 22

And the median!

(17 + 19)/ 2  =  18

Since we know that the average and median will increase by 2, we will have the median after removal as 20, and the average, 24.

For the average, we can see that the total must be 144, that's what 24 * 6 is.

19 must have been one of the numbers because (17 + 23) / 2  = 20.

That's 32 less than the original sum of 176.

So if one of the removed numbers is 19, the other must be 13.

13 * 19 = 247

Thus, the product of the removed numbers are [tex]\boxed{247}[/tex].

A television program is 2 hours and 40 minutes long.
a)It starts at 22:45
at which time does it finish?
b)the program contains 8 ADs breaks,each of which lasts 3 min.
find the fraction of the 2 hours 40 min that is taken by ADs.
Give your answer in its simplest form.

Answers

Final answer:

The television program finishes at 00:25 after starting at 22:45 and running for 2 hours and 40 minutes. The fraction of the program's total time taken by 8 ad breaks, each lasting 3 minutes, is 3/20 of the total program time.

Explanation:

To calculate the finish time of the television program that starts at 22:45 and is 2 hours and 40 minutes long, we add the duration of the program to the start time. Firstly, we convert 2 hours and 40 minutes into minutes only to simplify addition. That is 160 minutes (120 minutes for 2 hours and 40 minutes for the remaining time). When we add 160 minutes to 22:45, we need to be careful due to the change of day at midnight.

Adding the minutes part first, 45 minutes + 40 minutes = 85 minutes. We subtract 60 minutes to account for one full hour giving us 25 minutes and add an hour to the hour part. 22:45 therefore becomes 23:25 with an additional 1 hour to be added.

We are left with 1 hour to add to 23:25, which simply gets us to 00:25, or 25 minutes past midnight. The television program finishes at 00:25.

Calculating the Fraction of Time Taken by Ads

The program contains 8 ad breaks, each of which lasts 3 minutes. The total time taken by the ads is 8 breaks × 3 minutes per break = 24 minutes of ads.

To find the fraction of time taken by the ads, we need the total duration in minutes, which is 2 hours and 40 minutes or 160 minutes. The fraction is therefore 24/160, which simplifies to 3/20 when we divide both the numerator and the denominator by 8.

Thus, the fraction of the 2 hours and 40 minutes that is taken by ads is 3/20.

A garden is in the shape of a rectangle 85 m by 50m.

Flowers are grown in 32% of the garden.
The rest of the garden is grass.

Work out the area of the garden that is grass.
Show your working out.

Answers

Answer:

2,890 meters^2 is grass

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the area of the garden

Area of a rectangle can be found using:

a=lw

a=85*50

a=4,250 meters^2

We know that 32% of the area is flowers, so we can multiply 32% and 4250

32%*4250

Convert 32% to a decimal by dividing by 100

32%/100=0.32

0.32*4250=1360

So, 1360 meters^2 is flowers.

The rest must be grass, so we can find the difference between the total area and the flowers

4250-1360=2890

So, 2,890 meters^2 is grass

Answer:

The answer to your question is 2890 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

length = 85 m

width = 50 m

32% are flowers

Process

1.- Calculate the area of the garden

Area = length x width

-Substitution

Area = 85 x 50

        = 4250 m²

2.- Calculate the area of the garden that are flowers

                   4250 ----------------- 100%

                       x    ------------------  32%

                           x = (32 x 4250) / 100

                           x = 136000/100

                           x = 1360 m² are flowers

3.- Calculate the area of the garden that is grass

A large manufacturer that sells consumer products on-line wishes to publicize its customer satisfaction in an advertisement. Specifically, it wants to state that over 90% of the manufacturer's customers would tell a friend to buy a product from the manufacturer. The manufacturer selects a random sample of 400 customers from its database, contacts them via email and asks them the question "Would you tell a friend to buy a product from us?" 372 say Yes, and 28 say No. Is thos enough evidence for this manufacturer to state that more than 90% of its costumers would tell their friend to buy a product from the manufacturer?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]z=\frac{0.93 -0.9}{\sqrt{\frac{0.9(1-0.9)}{400}}}=2[/tex]  

[tex]p_v =P(z>2)=0.0228[/tex]  

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level assumed [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] we have [tex]p_v<\alpha[/tex] so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of people who say yes is significantly higher than 0.9 or 90%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=400 represent the random sample taken

X=372 represent the number of people who say yes

[tex]\hat p=\frac{372}{400}=0.93[/tex] estimated proportion of people who say yes

[tex]p_o=0.9[/tex] is the value that we want to test

[tex]\alpha[/tex] represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value (variable of interest)  

Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that that more than 90% of its costumers would tell their friend to buy a product from the manufacturer.:  

Null hypothesis:[tex]p\leq 0.9[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]p > 0.9[/tex]  

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:  

[tex]z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}[/tex] (1)  

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion [tex]\hat p[/tex] is significantly different from a hypothesized value [tex]p_o[/tex].

Calculate the statistic  

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

[tex]z=\frac{0.93 -0.9}{\sqrt{\frac{0.9(1-0.9)}{400}}}=2[/tex]  

Statistical decision  

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The significance level assumed for this case is [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex]. The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:  

[tex]p_v =P(z>2)=0.0228[/tex]  

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level assumed [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] we have [tex]p_v<\alpha[/tex] so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of people who say yes is significantly higher than 0.9 or 90%.

In a game of roulette, Jorge places 170 bets of each on the number 3. A win pays off with odds 35:1 and on any one spin there is a probability that 3 will be the winning number. Among the 170 bets, what is the minimum number of wins needed for Jorge to make a profit? Estimate the probability that Jorge will make a profit.

Answers

Answer:

An estimate of the probability that Jorge will make a profit is (5; 0.496)

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost = 170x1 = $170

The payoff is $35 per $1 bet

The number of wins needed to make a profit = 170/35 = 4.86 \approx 5

Probability of winning, P(win), p = 1/38

n = 170

P(Jorge will make a profit) = P(at least 5 wins)

mean = np = 4.47

standard deviation = \sqrt{npq} = 2.09

P(X \geq 5) = 1 - P(X < 5)

P(X < A) = 1 - P(Z < (A - mean)/standard deviation)

After the application of continuity correction,

P(X \geq 5) = 1 - P(Z < (4.5 - 4.47)/2.09)

= 1 - P(Z < 0.01)

= 1 - 0.5040

P(X \geq 5 = 0.496

An estimate of the probability that Jorge will make a profit is (5; 0.496)

Answer:

probability that Jorge makes a profit is = 0.46412  

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- The number of bets made on number "3", N = 170

- He bets on each number "3", k = $1

- The winning pay-off odds : $ ( 35 : 1 )

- The probability of getting number "3" on a spin, p = 1/38

- The total amount paid (C) for n = 170 bets on number "3" are:

                 C = N*k

                 C = (170)*($1)

                 C = $170

- The probability of getting a number "3" on a spin is independent for each trial.

Denote:

- The amount received per win = $ 35

- The number of wins = r

- So the minimum "N" number of wins must be enough to match loss.

                 Amount Win = Amount Loss

                 r*$35 = C

                 r*$36 = C

                 r = $170 / 36

                 r = 4.7222 ≈ 5 wins

- So the minimum amount of wins required by r = 10 to make a profit.

- Let a random variable "X" denote the number of times Jorge spins to get number "3" - Number of wins. The probability to get a number "3" on each spin is independent for each trial. Therefore X follows Binomial distribution.

- So,                         X ~ B ( N , p )

                               X ~ B ( 170 , 1/38 )  

                               1 - p = 37 / 38

- So we need to determine that Jorge get number "3" at-least r = 5 times. Where the probability mass function for binomial distribution is given below:  

                              [tex]P ( X = r ) = ^NC_r * (p)^r * ( 1 - p )^(^N^ -^ r^ )[/tex]

So,

[tex]P ( X \geq 5 ) = 1 - P ( X \leq 4) = 1 - [ P ( X = 0 ) + P ( X = 1 ) + P ( X = 2 ) + P ( X = 3 ) + P ( X = 4 )]\\\\1 - [ (37/38)^1^7^0 + 170*(1/38)*(37/38)^1^6^9 + 170C2*(1/38)^2*(37/38)^1^6^8 + \\\\170C3*(1/38)^3*(37/38)^1^6^7 + 170C4*(1/38)^4*(37/38)^1^6^6 ]\\\\1 - [ 0.01074 + 0.04935 + 0.11271 + 0.17059 + 0.19249]\\\\= 1 - 0.53588\\\\= 0.46412[/tex]

- So the probability that Jorge makes a profit is = 0.46412                                        

Note:- The normal approximation to Binomial distribution may be a less cumbersome choice; however, care must be taken to verify the conditions for normal approximation i.e

                          N*p ≥ 10

With the given data, N = 170 , p = 1/38:

                          N*p = 170/38 = 4.4737 ≤ 10

Hence, the normal approximation is an invalid choice for the data given.

SUMMARY OF THIS ARTICLE You're mostly stuck inside, you are home from school and the coronavirus pandemic is making the future seem less certain by the day. The coronavirus is a flu-like illness that first arose in China. The virus has now infected people around the globe. Like 27 percent of Americans, you might seek comfort in a familiar place: the refrigerator.Food can be one of the easiest and most immediate ways to make ourselves feel better in stressful times. While enjoying our food is a good thing, experts say emotionally eating lots of food with little nutritional value can weaken our immune systems and worsen our moods at a time when it's especially important to stay positive and protect our bodies.If we want to be able to feel better, given the situation that we're in, we have to think about how we want to fuel our body in ways that we can stay more at ease," said Eva Selhub, a doctor with expertise in stress, resilience and mind-body medicine.Why do my eating habits matter right now?Selhub says that people may feel guilty or shameful for eating highly processed foods with a lot of sugar. Eating these foods can also cause inflammation in the body that increases fatigue, anxiety and depression. Selhub added that our bodies have various ways of connecting our stomachs to our brains, so eating nutritious foods can help control our moods.How can I tell if I'm eating because of emotion and not because of hunger?Eating as a result of stress tends to be an automatic instinct, like putting your hand into a bag of potato chips without thinking about it, said Deanna Minich, a nutritionist with the American Nutrition Association. Physical hunger lasts longer and is more receptive to a variety of foods, rather than just foods with little nutrition.How can I prevent or limit emotional eating in this uncertain time?Although food makes us feel better by releasing dopamine and serotonin in our brains, Selhub said the effect wears off quickly. To stop emotional eating, she suggested doing a gut-check before you reach for a snack: "Am I about to eat because I'm physically hungry, or because I feel stressed or sad?"If the answer is the latter, Selhub said you should consider turning to other sources of comfort: breathing exercises, movement, spirituality, social interactions, hobbies or time in nature, among others. Stick to your normal eating schedule of two or threemeals a day, even if your daily routine has changed, she said."Whether you're alone or with other people, make it a ritual of nurturing - that you're nurturing yourself, that you're fueling yourself," Selhub said.For extra help if you want to stay on track with trying to get in shape or lose weight, she suggested finding or creating an online support group.What if anxiety has the opposite effect on me and I struggle to eat enough?Although many people eat extra when they feel anxious, you may have trouble eating at all. Stress can trigger in your body an elevated physiological state as if you were facing an immediate danger, like early humans may have felt when being chased by a lion, Selhub said.To digest food properly, we need a relaxed digestive system, Minich said. Warm teas can help your body loosen up, while protein shakes and electrolyte packets provide energy.At the very least, Minich said you should drink a lot of water to stay hydrated. To return to regular eating patterns, though, she said it's important to address the underlying stress, like by physically moving or doing a simple meditation.What should I be trying to eat during this public-health crisis?Making good food choices starts when you're scanning the - hopefully still stocked - grocery-store shelves and deciding what to take home, Minich said. To the extent that you can buy fresh, colorful foods, you should, she said.Absent the option of purchasing fresh produce and meat, Minich said frozen almost always beats canned when it comes to nutrition. Frozen food is preserved in close to its original state and usually has little interaction with the plastic it's stored in, she said, whereas canned food touches its metal container and the plasticizer used to seal it. Canned food is also usually stored in a high-salt or high-sugar solution.Minich also suggested using spices to reduce stress-inflicted inflammation and eating foods with vitamin C to strengthen your immune system. Now is a good time to share recipes with friends and family, she said, and to make sure you're also paying attention to other aspects of your health, such as moving your body and getting enough sleep.Ultimately, Minich said eating well heightens our sense of well-being, increases our curiosity and makes us happier."And I think this is the time that we need more well-being and happiness," she said. A researcher has a hypothesis that men are more likely to be influenced by the central route to persuasion when buying a car than women are.
