Answers

Answer 1

The will have to work for 3 weeks in order to save money for down payment of car.

What is the unitary method?

Unitary method is a technique for solving a problem by first finding the value of a single unit, and then finding the necessary value by multiplying the single unit value.

Given in the question is a story of john works at the mall, 20 hours a week and makes $8.50 an hour. He is saving for a car and needs a down payment of $500.

Assume that he has to work 'x' number of weeks for down payment.

For 1 hour, John earns → $8.50

Number of hours he work in the mall per week → 20 hours

Amount of money collected in one week → $8.50 x 20 = $170

Money needed for down payment → $500

In 1 week, John earns → $170

So, he earns $1 in → 1 / 170 weeks

Therefore, he will earn $500 in →

(1 / 170) x 500 = 2.94 = 3 weeks (approx.)

Therefore, he will have to work for 3 weeks in order to save money for down payment of car.

Answer:

x = 10/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve:

27^(3x-2) = 81

When solving equations in exponential form make sure the two bases on both sides are the same.

3^3(3x-2) = 3^4

Once the two bases are the same you cancel them out and used its exponent to solve the equation.

3(3x-2) = 4

9x-6 = 4

Add 6 to both sides.

9x-6+6 = 4+6

9x = 10

Divide both sides by 9.

x = 10/9

Therefore x = 10/9.

You have four cards: Jack, Queen, King, and Ace. What is the probability of drawing a face card, not replacing it, and then choosing another face card?

Write in fraction form!

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

if I understand you correctly, then we have the 4 described cards. 3 of these 4 cards are face cards (Jack, Queen, King).

a probability is always desired cases over totally possible cases.

so, for the first pull we have a probability of

3/4 = 0.75

we have 4 total possibilities, and 3 of them are the desired outcome.

for the second pull we have then only 3 cards left (we did not replace the first pulled card). and because the first pulled card was in this scenario a face card, 2 out of these 3 cards are face cards.

so, the probability to pull a face card here is

2/3 = 0.66666...

when we combine these 2 events into one connected event (we are creating event 1 AND event 2), we multiply the probabilities, giving us

3/4 × 2/3 = 6/12 = 1/2 = 0.5

The position of a body moving along the x-axis is given by s = t³ - 12t2+36t, with s in meters and t in seconds.
Find the total distance traveled by the body from t = 0 tot = 4.
Total distance =

Answers

The total distance travelled by the body is 48 meters

According to the question we have been given an equation of the position of  a body moving along x-axis as

                    s = t³ - 12t² + 36t

where,    s = distance in meters

             t = time in seconds

We need to find the total distance traveled by the body from t=0s to t=4s

The formula for the total distance is given as :

            S = |s(1) - s(0)| + |s(2) - s(1)| + |s(3) - s(2)| + |s(4) - s(3)|

Now we will find out the distance travelled in time 0s to 4s

when t = 0s ,  s = (0)³ - 12(0)² + 36*0

                         = 0m

         t = 1s ,  s = (1)³ - 12(1)² + 36*1

                         =  25m

         t = 2s ,  s = (2)³ - 12(2)² + 36*2

                         =  32m

         t = 3s , s = (3)³ - 12(3)² + 36*3

                         = 27m

         t = 4s , s = (4)³ - 12(4)² + 36*4

                         = 16m

Putting the required values in the above formula we get ,

  S = |25-0|+|32-25|+|27-32|+|16-27|

  S = 25 + 7 + 5 + 11 meters

   S = 48 meters

Hence the total distance travelled by the body is 48 meters

Answer:

length: 343 marea: 6418 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given an oval track in the shape of a 48 m by 96 m rectangle with semicircular ends, you want the length of the track and the area enclosed.

Track Length

If you remove the rectangle, you see that what remains is a circle of diameter 48. The length of that circular portion of the track is the circumference of the circle:

  C = πd

  C = π(48 m) = 48π m ≈ 151 m

Added to that length are the two 96 m sides of the rectangle. So, the total length of the track is ...

  track length = curved length + straight length

  track length = 151 m + 2×96 m = 343 m

The length of the track is 343 meters.

Enclosed area

The area enclosed by the track includes the area of the circle we saw above, and the area of the rectangle.

The radius of the circular portion is half the diameter, or 24 m. Then the area is ...

  A = πr²

  A = π(24 m)² = 576π m² ≈ 1810 m²

The area of the rectangular portion is the product of length and width:

  A = LW

  A = (96 m)(48 m) = 4608 m²

The enclosed area is the sum of these areas:

  enclosed area = area of circle + area of rectangle

  enclosed area = 1810 m² +4608 m² = 6418 m²

The area enclosed by the track is 6418 square meters.

The length (perimeter) of the track is approximately equal to 342.796 meters and the area enclosed by the track is approximately equal to 6417.557 square meters.

What is the perimeter and the area enclosed by the track?

In this problem we have a composite figure generated by a rectangle and two semicircles, of which we must determine its perimeter and area. The perimeter is the sum of the contour lengths of the semicircles and the rectangle and the enclosed area is the sum of areas of the two semicircles and a rectangle.

The perimeter of the composite figure is:

p = 2π · r + 2 · l

p = 2π · (24 m) + 2 · (96 m)

p ≈ 342.796 m

A = π · r² + l · (2 · r)

A = π · (24 m)² + (96 m) · (48 m)

A ≈ 6417.557 m²

The length (perimeter) of the track is approximately equal to 342.796 meters and the area enclosed by the track is approximately equal to 6417.557 square meters.

Trey Invested his savings in two Investment funds. The $12,000 that he invested in Fund A returned a 1% profit. The amount that he invested in Fund B returned a 6% profit. How much did he invest in Fund B, if both funds together returned a 3% profit?

Answers

The amount Trey invested in Fund B is $8,000.

Profit is a residual income, It is the gain amount from any kind of business activity. In short, if the selling price (SP) of the product is more than the cost price (CP) of a product, then it is considered as a gain or profit. while return is a total revenue. Profits may be negative, whereas returns, such as wages and interest are always positive.

amount invested in Fund A = $12,000            (given)

profit returned by Fund A =  1% of $12,000    (given)

= 1/100*$12,000

= $120

Let amount invested in Fund B = x                   (assumption)

profit returned by Fund B =  6% of x                 (given)

= 6/100*x

= $ 6x/100

Given that both funds A and B together returned a 3% profit, So the equation we get is

120+6x/100 = 3% of (12,000+x)

(12,000+6x)/100 = 3/100* (12,000+x)

12,000+6x = 3(12,000+x)

12,000+6x = 36,000+3x

6x-3x = 36,000-12,000                       (bringing like terms on same side)

3x = 24,000

x = 24,000/3

x = $8,000

Therefore, we can conclude that the amount Trey invested in Fund B is $8,000

a = amount invested at 2%

how much is 2% of "a"? (2/100) * "a", namely 0.02a.

b = amount invested at 7%

how much is 7% of "b"? (7/100) * "b", namely 0.07b.

We know that fund A is less than fund B by 8000, that is a = b - 8000.

we also know that the yielded amount in interest is $1730, so if we simply add their interest, that'd be 0.02a + 0.07b = 1730.

Answers

Answer:

7000 panels.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of panels produced by Plant B.

Therefore:

4x = number of panels produced by Plant A.x = number of panels produced by Plant B.

Given information:

Defective panels from Plant A = 3%Defective panels from Plant B = 2%Total number of defective panels = 980

Create an equation with the given information and defined variables, remembering to write the percentages in their decimal form:

[tex]\implies 0.03(4x) + 0.02x = 980[/tex]

To find the number of panels Plant B produced, solve the found equation for x:

[tex]\implies 0.03(4x) + 0.02x = 980[/tex]

[tex]\implies 0.12x + 0.02x = 980[/tex]

[tex]\implies 0.14x = 980[/tex]

Answers

The ounces of herbs costing $1 per ounce that should be mixed with these 50 oz of herbs to produce a mixture costing $2.50 per ounce?

is 50 ounces.

How to illustrate the information?

Let x = the amount of herb that costs $1 per ounce.

Based on the information,the total weight will be:

x + 50 = y.

At $2.50, the cost of the mixture will be:

1x + 4(50) = 2.50y

x + 200 = 2.50y

x + 200 = 2.50(x + 50)

x + 200 = 2.50x + 125

Collect like terms

2.5x - x = 200 - 125

1.5x = 75

Divide

x = 75/1.5

x = 5.

Therefore, the correct option is 50

The distance between the two points are-9.87 units.

What is referred as the distance formula?In coordinate geometry, we have a list of distance formulas that can be used to obtain the distance between two points, the distance between a point and a line, the distances between two vertical lines, this same distance between these two parallel planes, and so on.The Euclidean distance formula is another name for the distance formula used to calculate the distance between 2 points in a two-dimensional plane. Acknowledge two points in the 2D plane, A(x₁, y₁) and B, to derive the formula (x₂, y₂). Assume 'd' represents the distance from A to B.

The distance formula is;

d² = (y₂ - y₁)² + (x₂ - x₁)²

Let the two given points be;

A(x₁, y₁) = (-1,-9)

B(x₂, y₂) = (6, - 16)

Put the values in the formula;

d² = (-16 + 9)² + (6 + 1)²

d² = (-7)² + (7)²

d² =2 (7)²

d = 7√2

d = 7×1.41

d = 9.87
