If Jenny can read 7 books in 8 days, exactly how many days would it take her to read 20 books?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

23 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

No. of days taken by Jenny to read 7 books

= 8

So,

No. of days taken by her to read 1 book

[tex] = \frac{8}{7} [/tex]

Therefore,

No. of days taken by her to read 20 books

[tex] = \frac{8}{7} × 20 [/tex]

[On Simplification]

[tex] = \frac{160}{7} [/tex]

[On dividing]

= 22.85.....

[On approximating]

= 23 days (approx. )

Hence,

Jenny will take 23 days to read 20 books (Ans)

Answer 2
Question:-

If Jenny can read 7 books in 8 days, exactly how many days would it take her to read 20 books?

Answer:-

22.85714 or 23 days

Explanation:-

[tex]GIVEN,[/tex]

Number of books Jenny can read in 8 days = 7

[tex]NOW,[/tex]

Number of days taken by Jenny to read 1 book = [tex] \frac{8}{7} [/tex]

Number of days taken by her to read 20 books =

→ [tex]20 \times \frac{8}{7} [/tex]

→ [tex] \frac{160}{7} [/tex]

22.85714 or 23 days

PLEAS HELP ASAP Fill in the missing probabilities on your paper and then answer the questions below. Make sure to type the ZERO before the decimal point. (example: 0.3 rather than .3) Give exact answers - do not round. please please please please help

Answers

This question is solved using probability concepts. We derive the probabilities from the tree given in the exercise, and with this, added to the use of conditional probability, we get the desired probabilities.

The probabilities are:

P(A) = 0.7, P(A and B) = 0.14, P(B) = 0.26, P(A or B) = 0.82, P(not B given A) = 0.8

Conditional probability:

In this problem, conditional probability concepts are used, and for this, we have that:

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

P(A)

At the first node, we have that:

P(A) = 0.7

P(A and B):

From the first node, we have that [tex]P(A) = 0.7[/tex]

From A to B, there is 0.2, which means that [tex]P(B|A) = 0.2[/tex]

Thus

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

[tex]0.2 = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{0.7}[/tex]

[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.7*0.2 = 0.14[/tex]

So

P(A and B) = 0.14

P(B):

P(B) = P(A and B) + P(not A and B).

P(not A) = 0.3, P(B|not A) = 0.4, then:

[tex]P(not A and B) = 0.3*0.4 = 0.12[/tex]

P(B) = 0.14 + 0.12 = 0.26

P(A or B)

We have that:

[tex]P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)[/tex]

We already have the three of them, so just replace:

[tex]P(A \cup B) = 0.7 + 0.26 - 0.14 = 0.82[/tex]

Then

P(A or B) = 0.82

P(not B given A)

If A happens, either B happens, or it does not. That is:

P(B|A) + P(not B|A) = 1

Since P(B|A) = 0.2

P(not B|A) = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8

Then

P(not B given A) = 0.8

Find the perimeter of a quadrilateral with vertices at C (−2, 1), D (2, 4), E (5, 0), and F (1, −3). Round your answer to the nearest hundredth when necessary.

Answers

Answer: the perimeter is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between C and D

Sqrt (-2-1)^2 + (1- -3)^2=

Sqrt -3^2 + 4^2=

Sqrt 25 = 5

Between D and E

Sqrt(5-2)^2+(0-4)^2=

Sqrt 25 = 5

Between E and F

Sqrt(1-5)^2+(-3-0)^2=

Sqrt 25=5

It is a square

The value of the perimeter of a quadrilateral is, 20 units

What is Addition?

The process of combining two or more numbers is called the Addition. The 4 main properties of addition are commutative, associative, distributive, and additive identity.

We have to given that;

Vertices are,

C (- 2, 1), D (2, 4), E (5, 0), and F (1, - 3).

Since, The distance between two points (x₁ , y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is,

⇒ d = √ (x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²

Hence, We get;

CD = √(- 2 - 2)² + (1 - 4)²

CD = √16 + 9

CD = √25

CD = 5

DE = √( 2 - 5)² + (4 - 0)²

DE = √9 + 16

DE = √25

DE = 5

EF = √(5 - 1)² + (0 + 3)²

EF = √16 + 9

EF = √25

EF = 5

FC = √(- 2 - 1)² + (1 + 3)²

FC = √9 + 16

FC = 5

Thus, The value of the perimeter of a quadrilateral is,

CD + DE + EF + FC

5 + 5 + 5 + 5

20 units

It is a relation but not a function of x.
It is both a function of x and a relation.

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

B) It is a relation but not a function of X

Explanation:

What Asha did was the vertical line test. This is a test to see if something is a function or not. Since a function can only have one output per input, if the vertical line intersects twice, it is not a function. However it is still a relation. A relation doesn't have to fit the rule that one output only has one input.

Vectors a = (1,0) and b= (1,1) are given. For what λ vector a + λb is perpendicular to vector a?

Answers

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Vector a=(1,0) if visualized as a line has points (0,0) and (1,0). This means the line is horizontal and has equation y=0.

This means we are looking for a vertical line.

Instead of lambda, I'm going to use u.

So we want a+ub=(1,0)+u(1,1). to vertical. If we visualize this as a line with points (0,0) and (1+u,u). We would need u=-1 so this would be vertical.

So vectors a=(1,0) and a+ub=(1,0)+u(1,1) are perpendicular for u=-1.

So we are saying vectors (1,0) and (0,-1) are perpendicular. If you draw these, you can get a visual confirmation.

The value of λ is -1 and is perpendicular to vector a.

What is Vector?

A vector is a number or phenomena with two distinct properties: magnitude and direction. The term can also refer to a quantity's mathematical or geometrical representation. In nature, vectors include velocity, momentum, force, electromagnetic fields, and weight.

We have,

Vector a = (1, 0) and b = (1, 1).

Here the vector is visualized as line is horizontal and has equation y=0.

Now, we have a + λb is perpendicular to vector a.

So, a + λb = (1, 0) + λ(1, 1)

                 = (1 + λ, 1)

Now, to get the vertical component we must have λ= -1.

Then, a(1, 0) and a+λb= (1,0)+ λ(1, ) are perpendicular to λ=-1.
