Jim drove 436 miles using 16 gallons of gas. At this rate, how many limes would he drive using 14 gallons of gas?

Answers

The ratio here is 16:436.
The easiest way to solve this is finding how many miles Jim can drive using just 1 gallon. We can do this by dividing both sides of the ratio by 16.

16÷16 is 1
436÷16 is 27.25
so our new ratio is 1 gallon:27.25 miles.

next we simply multiply both sides by 14.
1x14=14
27.25x14=381.5 miles :)

On a recent day 8 euros were worth $9 and 24 euros were worth $27 write an equation of the form y equals kx to show the relationship between the number of euros and the value in dollars.

Answers

Answer:

y=8x/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 8 euros were worth $9 and

24 euros were worth $27.

Let y represent the number of Euros and x no of dollars.

Given that the relation is of the form y = kx+C

When x=0 y =0,

i.e. C =0

Hence equation is of the form y = kx

Substitute x=8 and y =9

We get 9 = 8k

Or k =8/9

Hence relation is y=8x/9 is the relation between x and y.

WE can verify this for 27 dollars worth 24 euros.

24 =8/9(27) is true.

Thus equation is verified.

Dillion divided a 3 1/3 pound bag of pears among his 5 friends. How many pounds of pears does did each friend revive?

Answers

Each friend received 10 ounces of pears after Dillion divided the 3 1/3 pound bag among them.

First, we need to convert the weight of the pears from pounds and thirds to decimal form.

To do this, we divide the 3 1/3 pounds by 16 (since there are 16 ounces in a pound):

3 1/3 pounds = 3 * (1 + 1/3) pounds = 3.333 pounds

Now we know that each friend received 3.333 pounds / 5 friends = .6666 pounds of pears. To convert this decimal into something more understandable, multiply it by 16 since there are 16 ounces in a pound:

.6666 pounds * 16 = 10 ounces

So, each friend received 10 ounces of pears.

in the right triangle shown, ∠a=30° and ab = 12√3 how long is ac

Answers

Solution :

Given that in the right triangle , ∠A=30° and AB = 12√3 .

As the figure is missing and its not clearly mentioned that AB is the base or hypotenuse of the right triangle. So two cases arises-

Case 1: AB is the base for ∠A of  the right triangle (as shown in figure 1).

As we know from the trigonometric ratio that, [tex]cos(\theta) = \frac{base}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

Here , AB is the base and AC is the hypotenuse , and ∠A=30°

[tex]\Rightarrow cos(30)=\frac{AB}{AC} \\\\\Rightarrow AC=\frac{AB}{cos(30)}[/tex]

The value of [tex]cos(30)=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow AC=12\sqrt{3}\times\frac{2 }{\sqrt{3} }\\\\\Rightarrow AC=24[/tex]

Hence, AC is 24 unit long.

Case 2: AB is the hypotenuse for ∠A of  the right triangle (as shown in figure 2).

As we know from the trigonometric ratio that, [tex]cos(\theta) = \frac{base}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

Here , AB is the hypotenuse and AC is the base, and ∠A=30°

[tex]\Rightarrow cos(30)=\frac{AC}{AB} \\\\\Rightarrow AC=AB\timescos(30)[/tex]

The value of [tex]cos(30)=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow AC=12\sqrt{3}\times\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow AC=18[/tex]

Hence, AC is 18 unit long.

You wish to have $3000 in 2 years to buy a fancy new stereo system. How much should you deposit each quarter into an account paying 8% compounded quarterly?

Answers

Answer:

Deposit each quarter = $342.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula use in this problem:

[tex] FV=C\times \left [ \frac{(1+i)^n-1}{i} \right ]\times (1+i) [/tex]

Where,  

          FV is future value, FV=$3000

C is cash flow quarterly( need to find),C=?

I is rate of interest ( divide by 4), i=[tex] \frac{0.08}{4}=0.02 [/tex]

N number of cash flow, n=8

Substitute all these values into formula to solve for C

[tex] 3000=C\times \left [ \frac{(1+0.02)^8-1}{0.02} \right ]\times (1+0.02) [/tex]

[tex] C=\frac{3000\times 0.02}{[(1+0.02)^8-1]\times (1+0.02)}[/tex]

So, C=$342.68


Final answer:

To achieve $3000 in 2 years in an account with 8% interest compounded quarterly, you should deposit $364.11 each quarter.

Explanation:

To find out how much you need to deposit each quarter to have $3000 in 2 years in an account that pays 8% interest compounded quarterly, you would use the future value of a series formula given by:

S = R [((1 + i)^n - 1) / i]

Where:

S = the future value of the series (in this case, $3000)

R = the regular deposit amount per period (what we're solving for)

i = the interest rate per period (8% per year or 0.08 divided by 4 for quarterly = 0.02)

n = the total number of compounds over the period (2 years * 4 quarters/year = 8 compounds)

Plugging in our values:

$3000 = R [((1 + 0.02)^8 - 1) / 0.02]

$3000 = R * [((1.02)^8 - 1) / 0.02]

$3000 = R * 8.2432

So, solving for R, we get:

R = $3000 / 8.2432 = $364.11

Therefore, to have $3000 in 2 years with an account that pays 8% interest compounded quarterly, you need to deposit $364.11 at the start of each quarter.

Given

Sue wants to buy a video that costs $24.95.

She has $3 in her pocket

a piggy bank full of quarters x

Find out the inequality can be used to represent the number of quarters sue needs to buy the game.

To proof

As given in the question

Sue wants to buy a video that costs = $24.95.

She has $3

The value of quaters in the piggy bank = x

1 $ = 4 quaters

First convert $24.95 in the quaters form

=  4 × 24.95

= 99.8 quaters

convert $3 in the quaters form

= 3 × 4

= 12 quaters

The equation become in the form

[tex]12 + x \geq 99.8[/tex]

x = 87.8 quaters

quarters sue needs to buy the game is  87.8 quaters.

Hence proved






Use the following information for problems 1 – 3. Suppose you sign a contract for an annual salary of $50,000 with a guaranteed raise of 5% each year.

1. Write your salary for the next n years as a geometric sequence in explicit form.

2. What will your salary be in year 5?

3. How much will you have earned in total salary by the end of your 10th year?

Answers

Initial salary =  $50,000 .

Rate of raise = 5% each year.

Therefore, each next year salary would be 105% that is 1.05 times.

5% of 50,000 = 0.05 × 50000 = 2500.

Therefore raise is $2500 each year.

According to geometric sequence first term 50000 and common ratio 1.05.

Applying geometric sequence formula

[tex]a_n = ar^{n-1}[/tex]

1) [tex]a_n = 50000(1.05)^{n-1}[/tex]

2) In order to find salary in 5 years we need to plug n=5, we get

[tex]a_5 = 50000(1.05)^{5-1}= 50000(1.05)^4[/tex]

= 50000(1.21550625)

=$60775.3125.

3) In order to find the total salary in 10 years we need to apply sum of 10 terms formula of a geometric sequence.

[tex]S_n = \frac{a(1-r^n}{1-r}[/tex]

Plugging n=10, a = 50000 and r= 1.05.

[tex]S_10 = \frac{50000(1-(1.05)^{10}}{1-1.05}[/tex]

[tex]S_10 = \frac{50000(0.050)^{10}}{0.05}[/tex]

= 628894.62678.

Therefore , you will have earned $ 628894.62678 in total salary by the end of your 10th year.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y =\frac{1}{6} + 0.25x[/tex]

[tex]0 \leq x \leq23.33[/tex]


[tex]0 \leq y \leq 6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The machine always takes 10 minutes (or 1/6 hours) to warm up and performs each cycle in 15 minutes, or 0.25 hours.


The maximum amount of daily hours that the machine can work is 6 hours.


Therefore we can represent this situation by means of an equation of the form:


[tex]y =\frac{1}{6} + 0.25x[/tex]

Where


y = daily amount of hours the machine works.


x = number of daily cycles performed.


This equation is a linear function.  Because it has the form y = ax where a is a real number

The graph of this equation is shown in the attached image, where the gray shaded area represents the domain of the function.


The domain of the function is:


[tex]x\geq 0[/tex] (because you can not perform less than zero cycles a day)


[tex]x \leq23.33[/tex]. Because the machine can not exceed 6 hours per day, then it can not do more than 23.33 cycles.


So:


[tex]0 \leq x \leq23.33[/tex]


The range of the function is:


[tex]y \geq 0[/tex] (because you can not work less than 0 hours a day)


[tex]y \leq 6[/tex] (because the machine can not work more than 6 hours a day)


So


[tex]0 \leq y \leq 6[/tex]

4x + 6 − 3x = 12 − 2x − 3x
4x + 6 − 3x = 12x + 2x + 3x

Answers

Well, let's first solve each equation:

1.) -4x + 6 - 3x = 12 - 2x - 3x

To start, combine each like-term on each side of the equal sign (The numbers with variables in-common // the numbers alike on the same side of the equal sign):

-7x + 6 = 12 - 5x

Now, we get the two terms with variables attached to them, on the same side, so, we do the opposite of subtraction, which is, addition:

-7x + 6 = 12 - 5x
+5x +5x
_____________
-2x + 6 = 12

Next, you do the opposite of addition, which is, subtraction, and, subtract 6 from both sides:

-2x + 6 = 12
-6 -6
____________
-2x = 6

Finally, divide by -2 on each side, to find out what the value of 'x' is:

-2x = 6
÷-2 ÷-2
________
x = -3

So, the answer is not 'A.'
_________________________________________

Now, we test out the rest of the equations, the exact same way:

2.) 4x + 6 + 3x = 12 + 2x + 3x

Combine your like-terms, on each side of the equal sign:

7x + 6 = 12 + 5x

Now, get both terms, with the variable, 'x,' to the same side, and, to do that, do the opposite of addition, which is, subtraction:

7x + 6 = 12 + 5x
-5x -5x
______________
2x + 6 = 12

Next, subtract 6 from both sides:

2x + 6 = 12
-6 -6
__________
2x = 6

Finally, divide by 2, on both sides:

2x = 6
÷2 ÷2
__________
x = 3

So, the answer is 'B.'
_________________________________________

3.) 4x + 6 - 3x = 12 - 2x - 3x

Again, we combine the like-terms, on both sides of the equal sign:

x + 6 = 12 - 5x

Now, we get both terms with the variable 'x,' to the same side, and, the opposite of subtraction, is addition, so, we're going to add 5x to both sides:

x + 6 = 12 - 5x
+ 5x + 5x
______________
6x + 6 = 12

Now, we subtract 6 from each side, because, the opposite of addition, is subtraction:

6x + 6 = 12
- 6 - 6
_____________
6x = 6

Now, divide by 6, on both sides:

6x = 6
÷ 6 ÷ 6
_____________
x = 1

So, the answer is not 'C.'
_________________________________________

4.) 4x + 6 - 3x = 12x + 2x + 3x

First, we combine the like-terms:

x + 6 = 17x

Next, we get both terms, with the variable, 'x,' to the same side:

x + 6 = 17x
-x -x
_____________
6 = 16x

Now, divide by 16, on both sides:

X = 3/8

So, 'D,' is not the answer.

The answer is, 'B.'

Explain. Why did the United States look to the pacific for new marks Music and the BrainFrom the beginning of recorded history, music has been created and enjoyed by people. Even early man carved flutes from bones. Thomas Jefferson was known to play his violin to help him formulate the most effective word choices as he wrote the Declaration of Independence. Albert Einstein, considered one of the most intelligent men who ever lived, also played the violin. He was said to have figured out his most challenging mathematical formulas by playing his violin. Today scientists are discovering that the study of music, playing an instrument, or participating through singing can actually help develop our brains. No wonder Einstein and Jefferson, among many, found music helpful in problem solving.There was a time in Americas history when music was a centerpiece of family life. There were no televisions, radios, or other forms of electronic entertainment. Social life often involved someone playing the piano or another instrument while guests sang along or listened for enjoyment. Therefore, if parents could afford the opportunity, their children were encouraged to learn how to play an instrument. Taking music lessons did not mean a child was expected to become a professional musician. However, it usually meant the kids learned the daily discipline of practice.Recent brain research has shown some surprising benefits as a result of formal musical training. Learning to play a musical instrument appears to develop parts of the brain that can even influence academic results. The studies indicate that the earlier a child begins training, the more benefits there are. One such study showed that children who began musical studies before the age of seven had a more developed brain in the region where language production and auditory processing take place. Scientists believe there is mounting evidence to show that early musical training can improve brain function.A research team from Northwestern University observed that to achieve the positive brain development from musical training, music students had to be active participants. There were differences found between the kids who attended a more passive music appreciation class, and the ones who learned to play instruments. It was the active production of music that rewired the brain. Using electrodes on the students heads, scientists were able to see how actively the brain responded when students generated music.Neuroscientists have suggested that playing an instrument, especially at an early age, can improve how the brain interprets sensory information. Music (singing or playing an instrument) also positively affects memory. Apparently, music activates both the right and left sides of the brain simultaneously and this activity increases efficiency in processing information. In one study, researchers found the areas of the brain that affect language skill and executive function were more developed in musically trained students. The executive function is the planning center of your brain, where you figure out what must get done, and how to do it in the time that exists.A special community music program in a low-income area of Los Angeles showed a higher success rate of students going on to college than students in the area who did not participate in this music education. A team of researchers was asked to offer scientific evidence for this compelling distinction. The study concluded that there were significant improvements in reading scores for the children who attended music classes regularly and were actively engaged for a period of two years, compared to those who did not participate.Playing a musical instrument engages muscular movement, requires coordination, and employs various senses. This intricate process of making music creates motion and emotional response. According to one scientists studies, intense musical training increases not only the volume of the brain, but also improves the connections between the hemispheres of the brain.Today there is a trend toward instrumental lessons being less of a priority than in decades past. In many cases, families cannot afford private lessons or the time it takes from the family schedule. Fortunately, many schools still provide classes for chorus, orchestra, and band, which help promote this educational opportunity. Families keep busy today with most parents working full-time outside the home. Children are also busy with various extracurricular activities, competing forms of technological entertainment, and year-round sports activities.How does beginning the passage with the phrase "From the beginning of recorded history" affect the passage's tone?It helps create an intimate tone.It quickly establishes an optimistic tone.It immediately sets an authoritative tone.It gives the passage an accusatory tone.
