The following are the ages (years) of 5 people in a room: 16, 25, 23, 12, 17 A person enters the room. The mean age of the 6 people is now 20. What is the age of the person who entered the room?
Answer: 27
Step-by-step explanation:
Set the age of the person who entered the room as x[tex]Mean=\frac{16 + 25 + 23 + 12 + 17 + x}{6}=20 \\16 + 25 + 23 + 12 + 17 + x=20(6)\\93+x=120\\x=120-93=27[/tex]
Answer:
27 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
There are originally 5 people in the room.
Their ages are: 16, 25, 23, 12, 17
The sum of their ages is: 93
One person enters the room. That person's age is unknown, so we call it x.
The sum of the ages of the 6 people is:
x + 93
There are 6 people in the room now, so the mean age is (total age divided by number of people):
(x + 93)/6
We are told the mean age is 20.
(x + 93)/6 = 20
x + 93 = 120
x = 27
Answer: 27 years old

Answer:
Stationary matrix S = [ 0.6 0.4 ]
limiting matrix P = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.6&0.4\\0.6&0.4\\\end{array}\right][/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Transition matrix
[tex]p = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.8&0.2\\0.3&0.7\\\end{array}\right][/tex]
solving the equation SP = S ( using Markova chain with 2 states )
stationary matrix, S = [ a , 1 - a ]
given that SP = S
[ a , 1 - a ] * [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.8&0.2\\0.3&0.7\\\end{array}\right][/tex] = [ a , 1 - a ]
= a*(0.8) + ( 1 - a ) ( 0.3 ) = a
∴ a = 0.6
hence; stationary matrix S = [ 0.6 0.4 ]
limiting matrix P = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.6&0.4\\0.6&0.4\\\end{array}\right][/tex]
Pipe A can fill 3 tanks in 8 minutes. Pipe B can fill 5 tanks in 10 minutes. How long will it take for them to fill a single tank if they work together?
Answer:
c =4 4/9 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula is
1/a + 1/b = 1/c where a and b is the time for each working alone and c is the time working together
1/8 + 1/10 = 1/c
Multiply by 40c to clear the fractions ( 40c is the least common multiple)
40c(1/8 + 1/10 = 1/c)
5c + 4c = 40)
9c = 40
Divide by 9
9c/9 = 40/9
c =4 4/9 minutes

Samantha’s hockey team is fundraising for a trip to Europe! They are aerating lawns to raise money. Aerating lawns is a great service for homeowners because it helps the grass grow new roots and absorb water producing healthier lawns! The team has decided to charge $35/lawn for city sized lots. The rental cost for two aerating machines is $215. Samantha’s team has planned a Saturday to aerate!
Write an equation to relate the fund raised, R, in dollars to the number of lawns, l, aerated during the day.
Samantha’s team was able to aerate 26 lawns in one day! How much money did they raise?
How much money would the team lose if they were unable to aerate due to weather conditions? Is there any possible way they could avoid this potential loss?
Answer:
R = 35l-215
Step-by-step explanation:
total amount they earn = 35l
however, to account for the money used to rent the machines, we have to deduct 215 from the total cost.
hence,
R= 35l-215
total amount they raised = 35(26)-215 = $695
they would lose $215 if they were unable to aerate due to weather conditions
they could avoid this potential loss by checking the weather report before renting the machines

Answer:
[tex]\text{Exact: }AB=25\sqrt{6},\\\text{Rounded: }AB\approx 61.24[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Law of Sines to find segment AD, which happens to be a leg of [tex]\triangle ACD[/tex] and the hypotenuse of [tex]\triangle ADB[/tex].
The Law of Sines states that the ratio of any angle of a triangle and its opposite side is maintained through the triangle:
[tex]\frac{a}{\sin \alpha}=\frac{b}{\sin \beta}=\frac{c}{\sin \gamma}[/tex]
Since we're given the length of CD, we want to find the measure of the angle opposite to CD, which is [tex]\angle CAD[/tex]. The sum of the interior angles in a triangle is equal to 180 degrees. Thus, we have:
[tex]\angle CAD+\angle ACD+\angle CDA=180^{\circ},\\\angle CAD+60^{\circ}+75^{\circ}=180^{\circ},\\\angle CAD=180^{\circ}-75^{\circ}-60^{\circ},\\\angle CAD=45^{\circ}[/tex]
Now use this value in the Law of Sines to find AD:
[tex]\frac{AD}{\sin 60^{\circ}}=\frac{100}{\sin 45^{\circ}},\\\\AD=\sin 60^{\circ}\cdot \frac{100}{\sin 45^{\circ}}[/tex]
Recall that [tex]\sin 45^{\circ}=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}[/tex] and [tex]\sin 60^{\circ}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex]:
[tex]AD=\frac{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\cdot 100}{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}},\\\\AD=\frac{50\sqrt{3}}{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}},\\\\AD=50\sqrt{3}\cdot \frac{2}{\sqrt{2}},\\\\AD=\frac{100\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2}}\cdot\frac{ \sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}=\frac{100\sqrt{6}}{2}={50\sqrt{6}}[/tex]
Now that we have the length of AD, we can find the length of AB. The right triangle [tex]\triangle ADB[/tex] is a 30-60-90 triangle. In all 30-60-90 triangles, the side lengths are in the ratio [tex]x:x\sqrt{3}:2x[/tex], where [tex]x[/tex] is the side opposite to the 30 degree angle and [tex]2x[/tex] is the length of the hypotenuse.
Since AD is the hypotenuse, it must represent [tex]2x[/tex] in this ratio and since AB is the side opposite to the 30 degree angle, it must represent [tex]x[/tex] in this ratio (Derive from basic trig for a right triangle and [tex]\sin 30^{\circ}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]).
Therefore, AB must be exactly half of AD:
[tex]AB=\frac{1}{2}AD,\\AB=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 50\sqrt{6},\\AB=\frac{50\sqrt{6}}{2}=\boxed{25\sqrt{6}}\approx 61.24[/tex]
Answer:
[tex] \displaystyle 25 \sqrt{6} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
the triangle ∆ABD is a special right angle triangle of which we want to figure out length of its shorter leg (AB).
to do so we need to find the length of AD (the hypotenuse). With the help of ∆ADC it can be done. so recall law of sin
[tex] \boxed{ \displaystyle \frac{ \alpha }{ \sin( \alpha ) } = \frac{ \beta }{ \sin( \beta ) } = \frac{ c}{ \sin( \gamma ) } }[/tex]
we'll ignore B/sinB as our work will be done using the first two
step-1: assign variables:
[tex] \sin( \gamma ) = \sin( {60}^{ \circ} ) [/tex][tex]c=AD[/tex][tex] \rm \sin( \alpha ) = \sin( {180}^{ \circ} - ({60}^{ \circ} + {75}^{ \circ} )) = \sin( {45}^{ \circ} ) [/tex][tex]a=100[/tex]step-2: substitute
[tex] \displaystyle \frac{100}{ \sin( {45}^{ \circ} )} = \frac{AD }{ \sin( {60}^{ \circ} )} [/tex]
recall unit circle therefore:
[tex] \displaystyle \frac{100}{ \dfrac{ \sqrt{2} }{2} } = \frac{AD }{ \dfrac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} } [/tex]
simplify:
[tex]AD = 50 \sqrt{6} [/tex]
since ∆ABD is a 30-60-90 right angle triangle of which the hypotenuse is twice as much as the shorter leg thus:
[tex] \displaystyle AB = \frac{50 \sqrt{6} }{2}[/tex]
simplify division:
[tex] \displaystyle AB = \boxed{25 \sqrt{6} }[/tex]
and we're done!
Please and thank you
Answer:
[tex]-4p^3-3p^2-17p[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Adding a negative number is the same as subtracting a number. Using this logic, we can change the equation to equal this:
[tex]-3p^3+5p^2-2p-p^3-8p^2-15p[/tex]
Combining like terms, we have negative 3p cubed minus another p cubed, which equals negative 4p cubed, we have 5p squared minus 8p squared, which equals negative 3p squared, and we have negative 2p minus 15p, which is negative 17p.
i have the answer, 2-(3/x+2)
i got this from my calculator, however i need another line of working and i’m unsure of the process used to get there
Start with the answer format we want, and work your way toward forming a single fraction like so
[tex]a + \frac{b}{x+2}\\\\a*1+\frac{b}{x+2}\\\\a*\frac{x+2}{x+2}+\frac{b}{x+2}\\\\\frac{a(x+2)}{x+2}+\frac{b}{x+2}\\\\\frac{a(x+2)+b}{x+2}\\\\\frac{ax+2a+b}{x+2}\\\\\frac{ax+(2a+b)}{x+2}\\\\[/tex]
Compare that last expression to (2x+1)/(x+2). Notice how the ax and 2x match up, so a = 2 must be the case.
Then we have 2a+b as the remaining portion in the numerator. Plugging in a = 2 leads to 2a+b = 2*2+b = 4+b. Set this equal to the +1 found in (2x+1)/(x+2) to have the terms match.
So, 4+b = 1 leads to b = -3
Therefore, a = 2 and b = -3
------------------------------------------------
An alternative route:
[tex]\frac{2x+1}{x+2}\\\\\frac{2x+1+0}{x+2}\\\\\frac{2x+1+4-4}{x+2}\\\\\frac{(2x+4)+1-4}{x+2}\\\\\frac{2(x+2)-3}{x+2}\\\\\frac{2(x+2)}{x+2}+\frac{-3}{x+2}\\\\2-\frac{3}{x+2}\\\\[/tex]
I added and subtracted 4 in the third step so that I could form 2x+4, which then factors to 2(x+2). That way I could cancel out a pair of (x+2) terms toward the very end.
------------------------------------------------
Other alternative methods involve synthetic division or polynomial long division. They are slightly separate but related concepts.
Answer:
a = 2
b = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
the secret is seeing that the numerator (top part of the division) contains 2x. that means 2 times the factor of x in the denominator (bottom part of the division).
so, we want to change the numerator that we can simply say the result is 2 and some rest (remainder).
2×(x+2) would be 2x + 4
aha !
and we have 2x+1 up there. so, what had to happen to get from 2x+4 to 2x+1 ? we had to subtract 3. it to get to 2x+4 we have to add 3.
but if we add 3, we need also to subtract 3 to keep the value of the whole expression the same.
therefore we get
(2x+1)/(x+2) = (2x+4)/(x+2) - 3/(x+2) =
= 2×(x+2)/(x+2) - 3/(x+2) = 2 - 3/(x+2)
