substitute x = 350 into the equation for y
y = [tex]\frac{104000}{350}[/tex] + 235 ≈ 532 000
Final answer:
To find the size of the oil tanker that can be built for $350 per ton, solve the equation 350 = 104,000/x + 235 for x, yielding approximately 904 thousand tons. None of the multiple-choice options match this result.
Explanation:
The student is asked to calculate the size of an oil tanker that can be built for $350 per ton using the given model for cost per ton, which is y = 104,000/x + 235, where y is the cost in dollars per ton, and x is the tons in thousands. To find x, set the equation equal to 350 and solve for x.
350 = 104,000/x + 235
Subtract 235 from both sides to get:
350 - 235 = 104,000/x
115 = 104,000/x
To solve for x, multiply both sides by x and then divide both sides by 115:
x = 104,000 / 115
x ≈ 904.35
Since x is in thousands of tons, the size of the oil tanker that can be built for $350 per ton is approximately 904 thousand tons. However, this answer does not match any of the options provided in the multiple choice (a. 62 thousand tons, b. 6 thousand tons, c. 532 thousand tons, d. 178 thousand tons), suggesting there might be an error in the question or the offered choices.
find an equation of the circle whose diameter has endpoints (-2,-5) and (6,-1)
The equation of the circle in standard form with a center at (2, -3) and a radius [tex]\(4\sqrt{5}\)[/tex] is [tex]\( (x - 2)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = 80 \)[/tex].
To find the equation of the circle with the diameter endpoints given,
The midpoint of a segment with endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by the formula:
Midpoint [tex]\((M_x, M_y)[/tex] = [tex]\left(\frac{x1 + x2}{2}, \frac{y1 + y2}{2}\right)\)[/tex]
For the endpoints A (-2,-5) and B (6,-1), we calculate:
[tex]\(M_x = \frac{-2 + 6}{2} = \frac{4}{2} = 2\)[/tex]
[tex]\(M_y = \frac{-5 + (-1)}{2} = \frac{-6}{2} = -3\)[/tex]
So, the midpoint, which is the center of the circle, is C (2, -3).
The radius is half the length of the diameter, and the length of the diameter is the distance between the endpoints A and B using the distance formula:
Distance d = [tex]\sqrt{(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2} \)[/tex]
r = [tex]\frac{d}{2} = \frac{\sqrt{(6 - (-2))^2 + (-1 - (-5))^2}}{2} \)[/tex]
Calculating the expressions:
r = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{(6 + 2)^2 + (-1 + 5)^2}}{2} \)[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{\sqrt{8^2 + 4^2}}{2} \)[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{\sqrt{64 + 16}}{2} \)[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{\sqrt{80}}{2} \)[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{8\sqrt{5}}{2} \)[/tex]
r = [tex]4\sqrt{5} \)[/tex]
The equation of a circle with center (h, k) and radius r can be represented as:
[tex]\( (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2 \)[/tex]
Plugging our midpoint as the center and our radius into the equation:
[tex]\( (x - 2)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = (4\sqrt{5})^2 \)[/tex]
Simplifying,
[tex]\( (x - 2)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = 16 \cdot 5 \)[/tex]
[tex]\( (x - 2)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = 80 \)[/tex]
Thus, the required equation is [tex]\( (x - 2)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = 80[/tex].
an angle measures 2 degrees more than 3 times it’s complement. find the measure of its complement.
If the angle is 90 degrees, then the complement would be 27, because 90 / 3 = 30, and 30 - 3 = 27. Basically, you divide the angle by 3 and subtract 3 to find the complement if this is the case.
Answer:
22⁰
Step-by-step explanation:
Angle = x
Complement = 90 - x
Given:
x = 3 (90 - x) + 2
x = 270 - 3x + 2
4x = 272
x = 68
Complement = 90 - 68 = 22⁰
Grace made tables of values to solve a system of equations. First, she found that the x-value of the solution was between 0 and 1, and then she found that it was between 0.5 and 1. Next, she made this table.
Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
OPtion C is correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that there is a system of equations as
y =-4x+3 and y =3x+1
Table is prepared with side by side values of y for a given x
From the table we are to find the solution of the system
On analysing the table we find that the difference between two y's is
0.5, -0.2, -0.9, -1.6, -2.3,-3
Hence we select the one which shows minimum difference i.e. -0.2
For this, x = 0.6
When x =0.6, y shows two values as 0.6 and 0.8
So we approximate y value as average of these two i.e. 0.7
So solution is
(0.6, 0.7)
What percentage increase is this?
400 to 500
9514 1404 393
Answer:
25% increase
Step-by-step explanation:
A percentage change is calculated using the formula ...
percent change = ((new value) - (old value))/(old value) × 100%
= (500 -400)/400 × 100%
= 100/400 × 100%
= 25%
A positive percentage change indicates an increase.
The change from 400 to 500 is a 25% increase.

[tex]Q_{2}[/tex] = 18
[tex]Q_{1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{16+17}{2}[/tex] = 16.5
[tex]Q_{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{22+23}{2}[/tex] = 22.5
IQR = [tex]Q_{3}[/tex] - [tex]Q_{1}[/tex] = 22.5 - 16.5 = 6
Final answer:
The interquartile range (IQR) for the given data set is calculated by first arranging the data in ascending order, finding the first and third quartiles (Q1 and Q3), and subtracting Q1 from Q3. The correct IQR for this data set, following this methodology, is 6, not the mistakenly provided 7.
Explanation:
The question asks about calculating the interquartile range (IQR) of a given data set. The IQR is important because it measures the middle 50% spread of data, pinpointing where the bulk of values lie, and helps in identifying potential outliers. To compute the IQR, we first need to organize the data in ascending order, then find the first quartile (Q1) and the third quartile (Q3), and finally subtract Q1 from Q3 (IQR = Q3 - Q1).
For the provided data set: 17, 16, 21, 15, 25, 22, 18, 23, 17:
Arrange data in ascending order: 15, 16, 17, 17, 18, 21, 22, 23, 25.
Find the median (Q2), which is 18 in this case as it's the middle value.
Q1 is the median of the first half (excluding the middle value if odd number of data), so Q1 = 16.5.
Q3 is the median of the second half, hence Q3 = 22.5.
Therefore, IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 22.5 - 16.5 = 6.
Contrary to the mistaken calculation of IQR as 9 - 2 = 7 provided in the reference, the computed IQR for this data set, following the correct methodology, is 6.

Which of the following is the equation of a line that passes through the point (3,2) and is parallel to the y-axis? A. x = 2 B. y = 3 C. x = 3 D. y = 2
Answer:
Option C is right answer
Step-by-step explanation:
We have in coordinate geometry a straight line in slope intercept form as
y = mx+c
where m is the slope and c is the y intercept
There are special lines when m=0 and m = infinity.
When a line is parallel to y axis, it has slope = tan90 = infinity.
Hence line will have equation of the form x = a for some a.
Since the line passes through (3,2) we can find a using this.

steve has quiz scores of 60,64,75,71. If all the quizzes count the same, what is the lowest grade he can make on the next quiz to have an average score of 70? how do i solve this problem
Answer:
The last quiz score must be at least an 80 to get the average to be a 70.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find this, you need to take the average of the 4 test scores along with the unknown test score (x). So, to find an average, we add all the numbers together and divide by the amount of tests taken. We can then set this equal to 70 since that is the minimum average.
(60 + 64 + 75 + 71 + x)/5 = 70 ------> Multiply both sides by 5
(60 + 64 + 75 + 71 + x) = 350 -----> Combine like terms
270 + x = 350 -----> Subtract 270 from both sides
x = 80

Christa buys 14 flowerpots. Some are small and cost $2.40 each. The rest are large and cost $5.60 each. She spends a total of $49.60. Which equation models this situation? Let s represent the number of small flowerpots she buys.
A. 5.6s + 2.4(s + 14) = 49.6
B. (2.4 + 9.6)(14 – s) = 49.6
C. 2.4s + 5.6(14 – s) = 49.6
D. 5.6s + 2.8(14) = 49.6
The price of the small pots is $2.40 so you would have 2.4s ( multiply the number of small pots by the price)
She bought a total of 14 pots, so the number of large pots would be 14 - s ( subtract the number of small pots from the total )
Now you have:
L = 14-s
2.4s + 5.6(14-s) = 49.6
The answer is C.
N-6.47=4.32 what is the unknown number for N?
N = 10.79
isolate N by adding 6.47 to both sides of the equation
N = 4.32 + 6.47 = 10.79
The unknown number N in the equation N - 6.47 = 4.32 is found to be 10.79 when we add 6.47 to both sides of the equation.
To solve for the unknown number N in the equation N - 6.47 = 4.32, we must isolate the variable N on one side of the equation. We do this by adding 6.47 to both sides of the equation:
N - 6.47 + 6.47 = 4.32 + 6.47
This simplifies to:
N = 10.79
The unknown number N is therefore 10.79. When providing the final answer, we must make sure that it is reported with the correct number of significant figures, which in this case are three significant figures.
Mrs. Riley is teaching her class to sew pillows. Each pillow requires yards of fabric. The fabric she purchased cost $2.40 per yard.
How many pillows will her class be able to make if she purchased $405 of fabric?
A.
75 pillows
B.
78 pillows
C.
85 pillows
D.
98 pillows
Mrs. Riley can make 168 pillows because she bought 168.75 yards of fabric and each pillow requires 1 yard of fabric.
Explanation:First, we need to determine how many yards of fabric Mrs. Riley purchased. We do this by dividing the total cost of the fabric ($405) by the cost per yard ($2.40). So, 405 ÷ 2.4 = 168.75 yards. Each pillow requires 1 yard of fabric, therefore she can sew 168 pillows with no leftover fabric.
Here is the calculation in more detail:
Divide the total money Mrs. Riley spent on fabric by the cost of fabric per yard. That is, 405 ÷ 2.4 = 168.75.Since each pillow requires 1 yard of fabric, the number of pillows that can be made is the same as the number of yards of fabric purchased. Therefore, Mrs. Riley can make 168 pillows (rounding down to the nearest whole pillow).Learn more about Math Calculation here:https://brainly.com/question/31573607

Mrs.Palmer bought one pair of goggles, one bathing suit, and one beach towel for each of her three daughters.Suppose she had $18 left after buying the swimming items.Write an equation to determine the amount Mrs.Palmer originally had to spend on each daughter.
To find the amount Mrs. Palmer originally had to spend on each daughter, we set up the equation as (x - 18) / 3 = y, where x is the total money she initially had and y indicates the amount spent on each daughter.
Let's denote the total amount Mrs. Palmer originally had as x.
We know she spent this on buying swimming items for her three daughters and had $18 left afterwards.
This infers that the total money she spent is (x - 18) dollars.
Since each daughter received a pair of goggles, a bathing suit, and a beach towel, this means she used this money to buy three sets of swimming items.
Therefore, the amount of money she spent on each daughter is equal to (x - 18)/3.
The equation to find out what x (the amount Mrs. Palmer originally had) is therefore:
(x - 18) / 3 = y
where y represents the amount she spends on each daughter.
