Answer:

2 2/3 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's convert from feet to yards. See how the feet cancel, because feet is in the denominator and the numerator?

8 ft x 1 yd/3 ft = 8/3 yd

As a mixed number:

8/3 = 2 2/3 yd of fabric

Answer:

B) Yes, ΔMNO ≅ ΔPON by SAS

Step-by-step explanation:

The Side Angle Side (SAS) postulate states that if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then these two triangles are congruent.

In this case, side MO is congruent to side NP and side NO is shared by both triangles. The included angle in ΔMNO is ∠O and in ΔPON is ∠N, and they are congruent.

Answer:

total temp of 20 winter days

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: 24 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

You multiply 30 by 4/5, since this is inverse.

If it took 4 bricklayers to build a brick wall in 30 hours, then it would 24 hours for 5 bricklayers to build a brick wall.

The amount of time is reduced down to 4/5 of the first time because there are now 5 bricklayers instead of four.

Answer:

It would take 24 hours for 5 bricklayers to build a wall.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can deduce the number of hours the bricklayers needed to build a wall because they are inversely proportional.

In other words, more bricklayers will result in fewer work hours.

4 bricklayers × 30 hours = 120 bricklayers hours

120 bricklayers hours / 5 bricklayers = 24 hours

Therefore, it would only take 24 hours for 5 bricklayers to build a wall. (Which is 6 hours faster since one person joined the workforce to help the others).

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

9. 40°

10. 50°

11. 270°

12. 310°

Step-by-step explanation:

m∠BPC = 40° because it is complementary to ∠APB, which is 50°.

Arc AB is 50° because it will be equal to the central angle, which is 50°.

Arc ADC is 270° because it will be equal to the central angle, which is 270°.

Arc ADB is 310° because it will be equal to the central angle, also 310°.

Answer:

A) The probability that each player gets an ace, a 2 and a 3 with the order unimportant = (72/1925) = 0.0374

B) The probability of winning the jackpot = (1/1200) = 0.0008333

Step-by-step explanation:

A) There are four Aces, four 2's, and four 3's, forming a set of 12 cards

These cards are to be divided at random between 4 players.

What is the probability that each player gets an ace, a 2 and a 3.

We start with the first player, the probability of these cards for the first player, with order not important (because order isn't important, there are 6 different arrangement of the 3 cards)

6 × (4/12) × (4/11) × (4/10) = (16/55)

Then the second player getting that same order of cards

6 × (3/9) × (3/8) × (3/7) = (9/28)

Third player

6 × (2/6) × (2/5) × (2/4) = (2/5)

Fourth player

6 × (1/3) × (1/2) × (1/1) = 1

Probability that each of the players get different cards is then a multiple of the probabilities obtained above

= (16/55) × (9/28) × (2/5) × 1

= (288/7700) = (72/1925) = 0.0374

B) The concluding part of the B question.

To win the jackpot, the numbers on your ticket must match the three white balls and the SuperBall. (You don't need to match the white balls in order). If you buy a ticket, what is your probability of winning the jackpot?

Probability of wimning the jackpot is a product the probability of getting the 3 white balls correctly (order unimportant) and the probability of picking the right red superball

Probability of picking 3 white balls from 10

First slot, any of the 3 lucky numbers can fill this slot, (3/10)

Second slot, only 2 remaining lucky numbers can fill this slot, (2/9)

Third slot, only 1 remaining lucky number can fill this slot, (1/8)

(3/10) × (2/9) × (1/8) = (1/120)

Probability of picking the right red superball

(1/10)

Probability of winning the jackpot = (1/120) × (1/10) = (1/120) × (1/10) = (1/1200) = 0.0008333

Answer:

y=3x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

y=y=y=x+x+x+5 is what I think you were saying. In that case:

y=x+x+x+5

y=3x+5

The equation of the line is y=3x+5

The equation of the given line is y = 2/3 x - 2

The standard form of the equation of a line is expressed as y = mx + b

m is the slope of the line

b is the y-intercept

from the diagram attached, we can use the coordinate (0, -2) and (3, 0)

Get the slope

Slope "m" = 0-(-2)/3-0

m = 2/3

Since the line cuts the y-axis at y = -2, hence the y-intercept is b = -2

Substitute the given parameters into the equation:

y = mx + b

y = 2/3 x + (-2)

y = 2/3 x - 2

Hence the equation of the given line is y = 2/3 x - 2

Answer:

51.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 62.5 by .18. You get 11.25. Subtract that from 62.5 and you get 51.25.

Answer:

Multiply the price with the tip rate

18% = 0.18

62.5 x 0.18 = 11.25

that is the tip. We add that on to find the total price

62.5 + 11.25 = 73.75

73.75 dollars is the answer. Hope this helps

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

When taking out the absolute value, it's 4x+2=6 and 4x+2=-6. At this point just solve for x and your answer(s) should be 1/-2

Answer:

x =1   x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

|4x +2|= 6

There are two solutions a positive and a negative

4x+2 = 6      and 4x+2 = -6

Subtract 2 from each side

4x+2-2 = 6-2      4x+2-2 = -6-2

4x = 4                     4x = -8

Divide by 4

4x/4 = 4/4            4x/4   =-8/4

x =1                            x = -2

f(2) = 9

Answer:

Since you're asking how to find the value of x, you can use cosine, since the triangle is a right triangle.

Answer:

Only cosine include both hypotenuse and adjacent. We need both of them because those are 2 side that have numbers/letters.

So cos(28) = 11/x

Multiply by x

Then you'll get xcos(28) = 11

Do oposite cosine and you'll get

x = 11*opposite cos(28)

opposite cosine means cos^-1

thats approx. equal to 12.46 units

The square root of 16 is a rational number. The square root of 16 is 4, an integer. This is because 16 is a perfect square.

Answer: None, 0 real roots

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the discriminant, you simply do [tex]b^2 - 4ac[/tex]

b = 2

a = -1

c = -5

[tex]2^2-4(-1)(-5) = 4 - 20 = -16[/tex]

iff x > 0: 2 roots

iff x < 0: none

iff x = 0: 1 root

Actual Explanation and Intuition behind it:

If the answer is negative, you cant take the square root of the number. Because no matter what, you will always strive for a positive number. Unless you implement calculus, but that is way beyond a middle schoolers level

If the answer is postive, there will be 2 roots because you can make x itself equal to a negative number because when you square it, it will be positive. So the positive and negative value will be an acceptable answer

If the answer is 0, then youre basically doing the square root of 0. Thats equal to 0

The discriminant formula itself comes straight from the quadratic formula, which you should memorize because it is extremely useful.[tex]\frac{-b (+/-) \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}[/tex]

Combine the like terms. move over the -3x to the right and it’s now 3x and combine it with -2x to get x. Move the 4 over to the left and it becomes -4 and combine it with the 1 to get -3. Then you are left with -3=x

Answer:

Area to be removed = 3600000 feet³

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to calculate the volume of soil to be removed. We have been already provided with area of the lot in feet.

Total Area of soil = 1200' x 1500'

Where soil to be removed is given in inches, convert it into feet

Soil to be removed = 24''=2'

Multiply both the the value to get the volume of soil to be removed so the soil is not a health hazard

Area to be removed = 1200' x 1500' x 2'

Area to be removed = 3600000 feet³
