Mark noticed that his bus is late to school 5% of the time. He wants to design a spinner he can use to simulate the situation and determine the probability that the bus will be late three times next week.

How should Mark divide his spinner to best simulate the situation?

Answers

Answer 1
The more painstaking way would be to divide up the spinner up into 100 pieces, and shade in 5 of those pieces. Since 5/100 = 0.05 = 5% this means that landing on any of the 5 pieces has a 5% chance of happening. A better way to do this is use 20 slices instead. This works because 5/100 reduces to 1/20 (divide the top and bottom by 5 ). Instead of shading in 5 slices, Mark should shade in 1 . Using a calculator, you should see that 1/20 = 0.05 = 5% as well. The second option is more common but even then a spinner with 20 sections is still a lot. It will be much better for Mark to pull some random numbers out of a hat or anything other accessories, or let a computer generate random numbers.

Of 750 people surveyed, 330 were male and 640 had cell phones. Of those with cell phones, 390 were female. What is the probability that a person surveyed was either male or had a cell phone?
a) 360/750 ≈ 0.48
b) 580/750 ≈ 0.7733
c) 700/750 ≈ 0.9333
d) 720/750 ≈ 0.96

Answers

HOPE THIS HELPS the answer is B

Answer:

Option d -  720/750 ≈ 0.96                    

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Of 750 people surveyed, 330 were male and 640 had cell phones. Of those with cell phones, 390 were female.

To find : What is the probability that a person surveyed was either male or had a cell phone?

Solution :

Let M be the number of males i.e. M=330

Let C be the number of cell phones i.e C=640

Total number of people = 750

Of 750 people surveyed, 330 were male

The probability of male is

[tex]P(M)=\frac{330}{750}[/tex]

Of 750 people surveyed, 640 had cell phones

The probability of cell phones is

[tex]P(C)=\frac{640}{750}[/tex]

Of those with cell phones, 390 were female.

i.e. reaming were male so 640-390=250

So, Probability of male and cell phone is

[tex]P(M\cap C)=\frac{250}{750}[/tex]

We have to find, the probability that a person surveyed was either male or had a cell phone i.e. [tex]P(M\cup C)[/tex]

Using formula,

[tex]P(M\cup C)=P(M)+P(C)-P(M\cap C)[/tex]

Substitute the values,

[tex]P(M\cup C)=\frac{330}{750}+\frac{640}{750}-\frac{250}{750}[/tex]

[tex]P(M\cup C)=\frac{330+640-250}{750}[/tex]

[tex]P(M\cup C)=\frac{720}{750}[/tex]

[tex]P(M\cup C)=0.96[/tex]

Therefore, Option d is correct.

Mr. and Mrs. Rivers left their house at 10:00 a.m. driving in opposite directions. Mr. Rivers drove at an average speed of 48 mph and Mrs. Rivers drove at an average speed of 36 mph. How far apart are they at 10:30 a.m.?

Answers

Answer:

42 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Mr. and Mrs. Rivers left their house at 10:00 a.m. driving in opposite directions.

Speed of Mr. Rivers = 48 mph

Speed of Mrs. Rivers = 36 mph

We need to find the distance between them at 10:30 a.m.

10:30 - 10:00 = 0:30 = 30 minutes = 1/2 = 0.5 hour

Distance covered by Mr. Rivers in half hour = 48 × 0.5 = 24

Distance covered by Mrs. Rivers in half hour = 36 × 0.5 = 18

Total distance covered by both in half hour = 24 + 18 = 42

Therefore, they are 42 miles far from each other at 10:30 a.m.

Answer:

42 miles

In order to determine the answer, we have to know about polynomial.

A polynomial is an mathematical expression where there are different terms. A term is just a variable, representing by a letter, and a coefficient. Terms are different when they have different variable, independent of their coefficients.

When the mathematical expression has just one term, it is called monomial, when it has two terms, it is called binomial, when it has three terms, it is called trinomial.

The polynomial is:

Tickets for a basketball game cost $20 for upper-level seats and $30 for lower-level seats. Tickets at the same venue for an ice hockey game cost $15 for upper-level seats and $35 for lower-level seats. If tickets for all seats are sold, the venue generates $7000 in revenue for a basketball game and $6500 for a hockey game. How many upper and lower-level seats does the venue have?

Let x represent the number of upper-level seats.

Let y represent the number of lower-level seats.

20x + 30y = 7000
15x + 35y = 6500

The venue has
upper-level seats and lower-level seats.

Answers

Answer:

x = 200

y = 100

Step-by-step explanation:

20x + 30y = 7000       Divide by 10

15x + 35y = 6500       Divide by 5

===============

It helps if you break down both equations to something simpler. It looks like not always.

(2x + 3y = 700)              Multiply by 3            

(3x + 7y = 1300)             Multiply by 2

==================

6x + 9y = 2100

6x + 14y =2600              Subtract

-5y = - 500                     Divide by -5

-5y/-5 = -500/-5

y = 100

2x + 3y = 700                  substitute y = 100

2x+ 3*100 = 700              Combine

2x + 300 = 700                 Subtract 300 from both sides.

2x = 700 - 300

2x = 400

x = 400/2

x = 200

===================

Hockey check

15x + 35y = 6500

15*200 + 35*100 = 6500

3000 + 3500 = 6500      Just as it should.  

Answer: 300 seats

Step-by-step explanation:

Easy!

20x + 30y = 7000

15x + 35y = 6500

Simplify by division of a common factor:

5(4x + 6y = 1400)

5(3x + 7x = 1300)

Choose an equation to solve for a variable and use substitution:

4x = 1400 - 6y

x = 350 - 3/2y

3(350 - 3/2y) + 7y = 1300

1050 - 9/2y + 7y = 1300

5/2y = 250

y = 100

Now substitute the solution in both equations to see if it works:

20x + 30(10) = 7000

20x + 3000 = 7000

20x = 4000

2x = 400

x = 200

Now for the other equation:

15x + 35(100) = 6500

15x + 3500 = 6500

15x = 3000

x = 200

Now add x to y, as the total number of seats is equal to x + y.

x + y = total number of seats.

200 + 100 = 300

Therefore, there must be 300 seats in total.

Find the diameter of a circle with a circumference of length 26cm round to the nearest tenth

Answers

Answer:

8.3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation 2πr is used to find circumference. To find the diameter, you will first need to find the radius, and in order to find the radius, you need to isolate "r" in the equation.

2πr = 26

Divide 2 for both sides.

πr = 13

Divide π (I am assuming π is 3.14) for both sides.

r = 4.140127389

Our radius is about 4.140127389. To find the diameter, multiply your radius by 2. This gives us 8.276057041, which rounds to 8.3 cm.

CAN ANYONE HELP PLEASE??

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First Question

The top question has 2 solutions because eventually you will have to take the square root of (x - 4)^2. One square root will be plus, and the other minus

(x - 4)^2 - 28 = 8                 Add 28 to both sides

(x - 4)^2 -28+28 = 8+28     Collect like terms

(x - 4)^2 = 36                       Take the square root.

sqrt( (x - 4)^2 ) = sqrt(36)    

x - 4 = +/- 6

=============

x - 4 = + 6      

x = 6 + 4

x = 10

============

x - 4 = - 6

x = - 6 + 4

x = - 2

The two solutions are (10,0) and (-2,0)

Second Question

The question is solved correctly up to the point where the square root needs to be taken. It is incorrect at that point.

x^2 - 6x - 7 = 0                             Add 7 to both sides.

x^2 - 6x  = 7                                  Add 1/2 the linear term and square it to both sides.

x^2 - 6x + (6/2)^2 = 7 + (6/2)^2    Expand the right

x^2 - 6x + 3^2 = 7 + 9                    

x^2 - 6x + 9 = 16                            express the square on the left

(x - 3)^2 = 16                                   Take the sqrt of both sides.

x - 3 = sqrt(16)

x - 3 = +/-4

============

x - 3 = 4

x = 4 + 3

x = 7

x -3 = - 4

x = - 4 + 3

x = - 1

Which of the following is an expression for “doubling a number N and dividing by 3” ?
A)2+n/3
B)2n/3
C)n2/3
D)2/3n

Answers

Answer:

B or C

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the communitive property of multiplication states that A * B = B * A...

2n = n2.

2n is doubling n and /3 is dividing that number by 3.

1. Doubling a number means a number times 2, we don’t know that number so it’s considered 2n
1(in short words) n is a variable. N•2 = 2n.
2. Divide 2n by 3. This would mean 2n/3

It could be B or C HOWEVER the most formal way is B.
We always want the coefficient in front of the variable. You will see it in the future. Thanks to the multiplication property of equality, B & C will produce the same number. For example let n= 1

2•1/3= 2/3 ; this is with equation B
1•2/3= 2/3; this is with equation C

If your looking for two answers put B & C
If your looking for one answer put B
If it doesn’t say, then I’d recommend to be B .

Find the length of UC on the attached diagram. Thank you!

Answers

Answer

The length of UC is 18

Explanation

First we are going to find the length of JN; then we are subtracting from it the length of JU plus the length of CN.

We can infer from our picture that JN is 82 + 105, so JN = 187

We can also infer that JU = JH + HU

                                     JU = 22 + 96

                                     JU = 118

We can also infer that CN = 51

Now we can fin the length of UC:

[tex]UC=JN-(JU+CN)[/tex]

[tex]UC=187-(118+51)[/tex]

[tex]UC=18[/tex]

We can conclude that the length of UC is 18.

Answer:

The correct answer is UC = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given figure we can see that,

total length JN =  82 + 105 = 187

To find the length UC

From figure we can write,

UC = Total length - ( JU + CN) = JN - ( JU + CN)

JU = JH + HU = 22 + 96 = 118

UC = JN - ( JU + CN)

     = 187 - (118 + 51)

     = 187 - 169 = 18  

Therefore the length of UC = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

12/3= 4

16/4=4

4/4=1

To find the weight of the frame nails that Dylan bought, which is 3/4 of the total weight of 12/16 pound, we multiply the total weight by 3/4 to get 9/16 pound.

The subject of this question is mathematics and it appears to be aimed at a middle school level. Dylan bought a total of 12/16 pound of plywood nails and frame nails, and we are asked to determine the weight of the frame nails, which is 3/4 of the total weight. To find the weight of the frame nails, you simply multiply the total weight by 3/4:

First, simplify the total weight. The fraction 12/16 simplifies to 3/4 because both the numerator and the denominator are divisible by 4.Next, calculate the weight of the frame nails by multiplying the simplified total weight by 3/4.
(3/4) * (3/4) = 9/16 pound.

Therefore, the weight of the frame nails is 9/16 pound.

There are 4 classrooms of third grade and 4 of fourth grade at our school. Each classroom has 20 students. She knows the following information:

·The school requires 1 parent volunteer for every 8 students going on the trip.

Part A: How many parent volunteers are needed to go on the trip?

Part B: All of the students, teachers, and parents going on the trip ride in school buses that hold 44 people. How many school buses should Mrs. Horan reserve?​

Answers

Answer: 18 parent volunteers and 4 buses.

Step-by-step explanation: In order to solve this problem you must first calculate how many student will be going on the trip.

There are 8 classes of 20 students and 90% are attending, so the formula is 8 x 20 x .9 = 144 students are going.

Part A: If one parent needs to go for each 8 students you need to divide 144 by 8 = 18 parent volunteers.

Part B: The total people attending are 144 students, 18 parent volunteers and 4 teachers is a total 166 total attending to ride the bus. You need to divide 166 people by 44 on each bus = 166/44 = 3.7 buses, so they need to reserve 4 buses.
