A- 1/55
B- 1/52
C- 1/53
D- 1/57

Answers

Answer 1

  Your answer will be 1/55 or A because, at the beginning of the problem it states "you are one of 55 people" ((:

Answer 2
Final answer:

The probability that your name will be drawn first out of 55 people is 1/55.

Explanation:

The probability that your name will be drawn first out of 55 people can be calculated using the formula:

Probability = 1/Total number of people

Therefore, the probability that your name is drawn first is:

Probability = 1/55

So the correct option is A - 1/55.

Should be your perfect squares!

Final answer:

Square roots of given perfect squares are 14, 5, 9. Two of given numbers are not perfect squares (75 and 200) and one number is not defined in this context (2).

Explanation:

The square root of a number is a value that when multiplied by itself gives the original number. In other words, √a*b = a if and only if b=a*a. A perfect square is a number that is the square of a whole number. So, the task here is to find the numbers that are perfect squares and then find their square roots.

196 is a perfect square, as 14*14=196, so the square root is 14.

75 is not a perfect square so we do not need to find its square root.

Given '2' is not properly defined in this context, so we can't identify the square root.

25 is a perfect square, as 5*5=25, so the square root is 5.

81 is a perfect square, as 9*9=81, so the square root is 9.

200 is not a perfect square so we do not need to find its square root.

The O! Natural Company sells a juice in 1 gallon bottles. The current retail price of the juice is $3.50 for 1 gallon. In order to remain competitive, the company will decrease the price to $3.20. What percent of the original price are consumers going to pay?

Answers

Answer:

After the discount, the customer will pay only 91.4% of the initial price.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the price of the current retailer, in dollars, is:

3.50

After the discount, the new price, in dollars, is:

3.20

We want to know what percentage of the original price is the final price.

To find out, we must divide the final price between the initial price and then multiply the result by 100%

So:

[tex]\frac{ 3.20}{3.50}[/tex]*100% = 0.914. * 100% = 91.4%

After the discount, the customer will pay only 91.4% of the initial price.

The discount percentage you are going to pay is 100% -91.4% = 8.6% of the initial price

5. For each conjecture, test the conjecture with several more examples or find a counter example to disprove it.

A. For every integer n, the value of n^2 is positive.

Answers

The conjecture that for every integer n, the value of n^2 is positive, is true

How to prove the conjecture?

The conjecture is given as:

For every integer n, the value of n^2 is positive.

Let n be a positive integer.

Such that:

n = k

This means that:

n^2= k^2 --- positive

Let n be a negative integer.

Such that:

n = -k

This means that:

n^2= (-k)^2

n^2= k^2 --- positive

Final answer:

The conjecture that for every integer n, the value of [tex]n^2[/tex] is positive is disproven by the counterexample of squaring zero, as 0 squared equals 0, which is not positive.

Explanation:

The conjecture for consideration is: For every integer n, the value of [tex]n^2[/tex] is positive.

To evaluate this conjecture, we need to look at the definition of integer squares. When we square any positive or negative integer, we multiply the number by itself, resulting in a positive product since a negative times a negative equals a positive. However, the conjecture overlooks the integer zero (0). When we square zero, 02, we get zero, which is neither positive nor negative. Thus, while the conjecture holds for all integers except zero, the case where n is zero provides a counterexample and disproves the original claim

To further illustrate this, let's consider a few examples:

Positive integer: [tex]3^2[/tex] = 9.Negative integer: [tex](-3)^2[/tex] = 9.Zero: 02 = 0 (Counterexample).

Given that 0 is not a positive number, we can conclude that the conjecture does not hold true for every integer since it fails for n=0.

... [tex]2(10p + 5 ) = 2 (\frac{18p-6}{2})[/tex]

Answers

It's hundred times bigger than the real carpenter bee.

Answer:

The length of the bee in the second image is 100 times the original.

Step-by-step explanation:

A science teacher showed an image of a carpenter bee on a wall. The image is 10 times as large as the actual bee.

Let the size of the actual bee be = x

So, the first image is = 10x

Then he showed another image of the bee that is 10 times as large as the first image.

Now as the length of the carpenter bee is not given, you can multiply the given length by 100 to get the answer.

The second image will be = [tex]10\times10x=100x[/tex]

Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD):

sales tax on a $400 stereo is $16. What is the tax on a $650 TV?

Answers

The reason being is that we need to find it out of 100. So, we divide 400 by 4 and because we did that to the denominator we have to do it to the numerator so 16 divided by 4 is well 4. So we found out that is 4/100 we just divide that by 650 and we get 26.


TL;DR it’s $26

Tax is the price charged on an object. This shows that the tax on a $650 TV is $26

If the sales tax on a $400 stereo is $16, this can be written as:

$400 = $16

To get the sales tax on $650 TV, we can write;

$650 = x

x is the required tax;

Divide both expressions to have:

[tex]\frac{400}{650} =\frac{16}{x} \\400x = 16 \times 650\\400x = 10400\\x = \frac{10400}{400}\\x= \$26[/tex]

Answers

Bob has 53 cows and spends 10 min each day petting each cow.This is 530 minutes one day which is 3710 minutes in a week. 200 minutes twice a week is 400 minutes. 53 times extra 5 minutes is 265 everyday times 7 days a week which is 1855.

3710+400+1855=5965 minutes
99 hours and 25 minutes

Bob sure loves his cows...

Bob spends 4,145 minutes per week taking care of his cows; this includes petting all 53 cows daily, grooming twice a week, and feeding one cow daily.

To calculate the time Bob spends taking care of his cows each week, we need to consider each activity separately and then add the times together:

Petting each cow: 10 minutes per cow per day    
Bob has 53 cows, so that's 10 minutes
53 cows = 530 minutes per day. Since there are 7 days in a week, this activity totals 530 minutes/day
7 days = 3,710 minutes per week.Grooming cows: He spends 200 minutes twice a week on grooming which totals to 200 minutes
2 = 400 minutes per week for grooming.Feeding one cow: An extra 5 minutes per day for one cow would total to 5 minutes
7 days = 35 minutes per week for feeding one cow.

Adding these three amounts together gives us a total time spent on care: 3,710 minutes (petting) + 400 minutes (grooming) + 35 minutes (feeding one cow) = 4,145 minutes per week.
