Tell whether the two quantities vary directly. Explain your reasoning. The cafeteria provides three meals per day.

Answers

Answer:

The cafeteria provides three meals per day.

Reason 1

Yes, they vary directly  

As number of days increases ,Total number of meals i.e

1st day ⇒ 3

2nd day⇒6

3 rd day⇒9

4th day⇒12

......................

.........................

increases.

Total number of Meals = k×Number of days

But there is another possibility also

Reason 2

1 st day ⇒ 3

2nd day ⇒3

3rd day⇒ 3

.....................

.....................

As you can see from the above expression On each day number of meals is  

constant.

So we can say that ,

On each Day=Constant amount of meal=3

So, there is no Proportionality between Days and Meal.




Write (2x + 1)(3x - 8) in expanded form

Answers

The answer is: 6x^2-13x-8

Final answer:

The expanded form of the algebraic expression (2x + 1)(3x - 8) is 6x² - 13x - 8.

Explanation:

To expand the algebraic expression (2x + 1)(3x - 8), we'll use the distributive property, which states that a(b + c) = ab + ac. First, we multiply 2x by each term in the second parentheses (3x and -8), and then we multiply 1 by each term in the second parentheses. Let's do this step by step:

Multiply 2x by 3x to get 6x².Multiply 2x by -8 to get -16x.Multiply 1 by 3x to get 3x.Multiply 1 by -8 to get -8.

Now, we combine these terms:

6x² - 16x + 3x - 8

Simplify by combining like terms:

6x² - 13x - 8

Therefore, the expanded form of (2x + 1)(3x - 8) is 6x² - 13x - 8.

How do I write a fraction in the simplest form

Answers

Ask if the numerator and denominator can be divided by the same number, which is called a common factor.

See if at least one number in the fraction is a prime number.

Simply just find the least common factor between the numerator and the denominator of the fraction, For example, 2/4, you know that between the two numbers, they both share the same common factor,  2, so divide 2 on the top and the bottom, and then your final  answer would be 1/2. However, if there seems to be no common factor between the numerator and the denominator for a fraction, do not simplify it any more. You cannot have a decimal as a numerator or a denominator. For example,  3/5 has no common factor so you do not have to simplify it as it is already at its most simplest form.

Length of the smaller board to be cut = [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] feet

So,

[tex]8\frac{1}{2} =\frac{5}{6} +\frac{5}{6} +\frac{5}{6} ....x[/tex] times.

the larger of two numbers is 7 less than three times the smaller number. if the sum of the numbers is 61, find the numbers

Answers

Let X = the large #

    Y = the small #

We have 2 unknowns, therefore we need 2 equations to solve for them:

    X + Y = 61

    X = 3Y - 7

Using the substitution method we get:

    X + Y = 61                original equation

   (3Y - 7) + Y = 61        substituting for X

    4Y - 7 = 61                combine like terms

    4Y - 7 + 7 = 61 + 7    add 7 to both sides

    4Y = 68                     simplify

    4Y/4 = 68/4               divide both sides by 4

    Y = 17                       solve for Y

    X + Y = 61                 original equation

    X + 17 = 61                replace Y with 17

    X + 17 - 17 = 61 - 17  subtract 17 from both sides

    X = 44                        solve for X

Check your answer:

       X + Y = 61          X = 3Y - 7

     44 + 17 = 61        44 = 3(17) - 7

     61 = 61  check!     44 = 51 - 7

                                 44 = 44  check!

Therefore, the larger #(X) = 44 and the smaller #(Y)= 17.

Quadrilateral RSTU has vertices R(1,3), S(4,1), T(1,-3) and U(-2,-1). Is it true or false that this is a rectangle because the diagonals are congruent and the sides RS and ST are perpendicular?

Answers

Given vertices ofQuadrilateral RSTU as R(1,3), S(4,1), T(1,-3) and U(-2,-1).

We need to check if diagonals are congruent.

The coordinates of verticales diagonal RT are R(1,3) and  T(1,-3).

The coordinates of verticales diagonal SU are S(4,1), and  U(-2,-1),

By applying distance formula:

[tex]\mathrm{Compute\:the\:distance\:between\:}\left(x_1,\:y_1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right):\quad \sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}[/tex]

RT = [tex]=\sqrt{\left(1-1\right)^2+\left(-3-3\right)^2}[/tex]=[tex]\sqrt{36}[/tex]

RT = 6

SU  [tex]=\sqrt{\left(-2-4\right)^2+\left(-1-1\right)^2}[/tex].

[tex]=2\sqrt{10}[/tex].

Diagonal RT is not congruent to Diagonal SU.

Therefore, Quadrilateral RSTU  is not a rectangle because the diagonals are not congruent.

So, it is False.

Final answer:

The quadrilateral RSTU is not a rectangle due to not having all right angles, making it a parallelogram.

Explanation:

The given quadrilateral RSTU is not a rectangle. To determine if it's a rectangle, we need to check if all angles are right angles, which is not the case here even if the diagonals are congruent and RS and ST are perpendicular.

Since the angles are not all right angles, the shape formed is a parallelogram. A rectangle must have all angles as right angles, so these conditions do not define a rectangle.

Riley has a piece of yarn that is 6 1 2 ft long. She wants to cut the yarn into sections that are each 1 4 ft long. How many sections will the yarn be cut into?

Answers

610 will be cut into

Answer: The yarn will be cut into 26 sections.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of piece of yarn = [tex]6\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{13}{2}\ feet[/tex]

Length of section = [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}\ feet[/tex]

We need to find the number of sections that will be cut into:

So, the number of sections would be

[tex]\dfrac{13}{2}\div \dfrac{1}{4}\\\\=\dfrac{13}{2}\times \dfrac{4}{1}\\\\=13\times 2\\\\=26[/tex]

Hence, the yarn will be cut into 26 sections.

How to define a linear function?

The slope-intercept representation of a linear function is given by the equation shown as follows:

y = mx + b

The coefficients m and b have the meaning presented as follows:

m is the slope of the function, representing the increase/decrease in the output variable y when the input variable x is increased by one.b is the y-intercept of the function, representing the numeric value of the function when the input variable x has a value of 0. On a graph, it is the value of y when the graph of the function crosses or touches the y-axis.

Jose grew at an average of 2 3/4 inches per year, hence the slope is given as follows:

m = 2.75.

Thus:

J(x) = 2.75x + b.

Jose was 63 inches tall when he was 13 years old(8 years after he was 5 years old), hence the intercept b is given as follows:

63 = 2.75(8) + b

b = 63 - 2.75 x 8

b = 41 inches.

When Jose and Sean were 5 years old Jose was 1 1/2 inches taller than Sean, hence Sean's height is given as follows:

41 - 1.5 = 39.5 inches.

To lose one pound of fat, a 200-pound person must burn 3,500 calories. If that person burns 180 calories by walking for 30 minutes, how many hours and minutes does the person have to walk to lose two pounds? Round your answer to the nearest minute.

Answers

Answer: 19.44 hours or 19 hours and 26 minutes.


Step-by-step explanation:

1. To lose 1 pound, a 200-person must burn 3,500 calories. Therefore, to lose 2 pounds that person must burn 7,000 calories.

2. If the person burns 180 calories by walking for 30 minutes or [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] hour, to calculate the time in hours the person has to walk to lose 2 pounds, you can multiply 7,000 calories by  [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] hour and divide by 180 calories:

[tex]time=\frac{(7,000Cal)(\frac{1}{2}h)}{180Cal}\\time=19.44h[/tex]

3. You have:

[tex]minutes=(0.44)(60)\\minutes=26.4min\\minutes=26min[/tex]

4. Then, you can express it as following:

19 hours and 26 minutes

Final answer:

To lose two pounds, a 200-pound person who burns 180 calories per 30-minute walk needs to burn 7,000 calories in total. This can be found by dividing the total amount to burn (7,000) by the amount burned per walk (180) and converting the result from minutes to hours and minutes.

Explanation:

To determine how much time this 200-pound person needs to walk to lose two pounds of weight, we need to first calculate the total amount of calories he or she needs to burn. Since it requires a 3,500-calorie deficit to lose one pound of weight, two pounds would require burning a total of 7,000 calories. Given that this person burns 180 calories per 30-minute walk, we can calculate the total amount of time required to burn these calories by walking. First, calculate the total walks needed by dividing the total calories to burn (7,000) by the amount of calories burned per walk (180). Then convert the result from minutes to hours and minutes.

The spin of the planet is called its rotation. The rotation of Earth is also important to weather. As Earth spins, the sun can warm only part of it at any one time.
