Final answer:

To solve the equation 5/6x = 10/3, multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 5/6 (i.e., 6/5), then simplify the resulting equation to find that x = 4.

Explanation:

Solving the Equation 5/6x = 10/3

To solve for x in the equation 5/6x = 10/3, we aim to isolate x on one side of the equation. First, we would multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of the fraction that is multiplied with x, which is 6/5. Multiplying both sides by 6/5 will cancel the 5/6 on the left side and leave us with x alone.

Here are the steps for the solution:

Multiply both sides of the equation by 6/5: (6/5) imes (5/6)x = (6/5) imes (10/3).

Simplify the left side: x = (6/5) imes (10/3).

Multiply the numerators and the denominators: x = (6 imes 10) / (5 imes 3).

Simplify the multiplication: x = 60 / 15.

Divide 60 by 15: x = 4.

Therefore, the value of x is 4.

c) 2, quadratic

Step-by-Step Explanation:

A polynomial graph has several features we look for to determine the equations.

The zeros of the function are the x-intercepts. If the x-intercepts touch but do not cross then the intercepts have an even multiplicity like 2, 4, 6, etc. If the x-intercepts cross over then they have an odd multiplicity.Degree is the exponent or multiplicity of each zero. Therefore if we know the multiplicity of each zero we can add them together to find or make an educated guess for the degree of the entire polynomial.The shape of the graph tells us what type of polynomial. Odd degrees have a backwards S shape. Even degrees have a W shape. The shape can even tell us the if the equation has a positive or negative leading coefficient. Upside down W or an M shape is negative. While a sideways S shape is negative.

In this graph, there is one real zero: -4

We can write them in intercept or factored form as (x+4) since x+4=0 gives x=-4.

Because the graph never crosses the x-axis it has an even multiplicity of at least 2.

The graph is facing up and is a U shape. This can only be a quadratic of degree 2. It is positive.

This means the function has a degree of 2.

Two angles are supplementary. The measure of one angle is 4 times the measure of the other angle. What is the measure of the smaller angle

Answers

ANSWER

The smaller angle is

[tex]y = 36 \degree[/tex]



.EXPLANATION

Let the angles be
[tex]x \: and \: \: y[/tex]

where y is the smaller angle.
Since they are supplementary, they will add up to 180°.


This implies that,

[tex]x + y = 180 \degree...(1)[/tex]


If one angle is 4 times the other, we can then write the following equation,

[tex]x = 4y...(2)[/tex]


We put equation (2) into equation (1) to get,



[tex]4y + y = 180 \degree[/tex]


[tex]5y = 180 \degree[/tex]


We divide through by 5 to obtain,

[tex]y = 36 \degree[/tex]


This implies that,

[tex]x = 4(36)[/tex]


[tex]x = 144 \degree[/tex]

The measure of the smaller angle, when it is one-fourth the measure of the other supplementary angle, is 36 degrees.

The student is asking about the measures of two supplementary angles where one angle is four times the measure of the other angle. In Mathematics, supplementary angles are two angles whose sum is 180 degrees. Let's call the smaller angle 'x' and the larger angle '4x'. The equation we need to solve is:

x + 4x = 180

This equation simplifies to '5x = 180', meaning that 'x', the smaller angle, is equal to '180 / 5', which calculates to be 36 degrees. Therefore, the measure of the smaller angle is 36 degrees.

Even though we have a sample of 40 units, we cannot determine that the units that are not in the sample will have the same or similar quality as the units that are in the sample. Thus none of the conclusions can be true.

Answer: Choice B) 100 pieces must be defective

Assuming the sample selected is representative of the population, we have two copies of "25" in that list (row 4; row 8) out of 40 total. So 2/40 = 1/20 = 0.05 = 5% of the items should be defective out of the entire population. Again this is assuming the sample is representative.

So we take 5% of 2000 and we end up with 0.05*2000 = 100 items we expect to be defective from a sample of 2000 items. Keep in mind that the true count will probably not be 100 items but some value close around it (eg: 98 or 101). This value is an estimate and not always perfect.

If choice B said "around 100" or "about 100" or "approximately 100" then I think it would be more technically correct. I think this is what your teacher is after.

Identify the perimeter and area of a square with diagonal length 11in. Give your answer in simplest radical form. HELP PLEASE!!

Answers

Answer:

Perimeter = 22*sqrt(2)Area = 60.5 inchesD

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

You need 2 facts.

A square has 4 equal sides. It contains (by definition) 1 right angle but since we are not including and statement about parallel sides, it needs 4 right angles.

That means you can use the Pythagorean Theorem.

If one side of a square is a then the 1 after it is a as well.

Formula

a^2 + a^2 = c^22a^2 = c^2

Givens

c = 11

Solution

2a^2 = 11^22a^2 = 121                    Divide by 2a^2 = 121/2                  Take the square root of both sidessqrt(a^2) = sqr(121/2)    a = 11/sqrt(2)                Rationalize the denominatora = 11 * sqrt(2)/[sqrt(2) * sqrt(2)]a = 11 * sqrt(2) / 2

Perimeter

P = 4s

P = 4*11*sqrt(2)/2P = 44*sqrt(2)/2P = 22*sqrt(2)

You don't need the area. The answer is D

Area

Area = s^2Area = (11*sqrt(2)/2 ) ^2Area = 121 * 2 / 4Area = 60.5

Final answer:

For a square with a diagonal length of 11in, the side length is 11√2/2. The area of the square is then 60.5 square inches and the perimeter is 22√2 inches.

Explanation:

To find the perimeter and area of a square with a given diagonal length, we need to firstly understand the relation between the diagonal and sides of the square. A square's diagonal divides it into two equal right triangles, and according to Pythagoras' theorem, the diagonal, being the hypotenuse in these right triangles, is equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of the sides. But since all sides of a square are equal, let's say the side length is 'a', then the diagonal would be 'a√2'.

Given that the diagonal length is 11in, we then have:

11 = a√2 or a = 11/√2

It's common to rationalize the denominator which gives: a = 11√2/2

Area of a square is a², therefore, Area = (11√2/2)² = 121/2 = 60.5 square inches.

The Perimeter of a square is 4a, therefore, Perimeter = 4 * (11√2/2) = 22√2 inches.

What is the linear function equation that is represented in the graph?

Answers


[tex]y = \frac{1}{2} x + 1[/tex]

Answer: y = (-1/2)*x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

In the graph we can see a linear equation, the first thing we know is that a linear equation has the shape of:

y = ax + b

first, to find the slope we can use two pairs of the graphed ones, in the notation (x,y) we can select the pairs: (0, 1) and (2, 0)

we have that a = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

a = (0 - 1)/(2- 0 ) = -1/2

so the slope is -1/2

now, b is the y-intercept, this is the value of y when x = 0, and we can see that this value is 1 (the point where the graph intercepts the y-axis) so b = 1.

then the equation is y = (-1/2)*x + 1

You are designing an amusement park ride with cars that will spin in a circle around a center axis, and the cars are located at the vertices of a regular polygon. The sum of the measures of the angles' vertices is 6120°. If each car holds a maximum of four people, what is the maximum number of people who can be on the ride at one time?

Answers

Answer:

144 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be the vertices, where cars are located.

We have been given that the sum of the measures of the angles' vertices is 6120°.

Let us find the number of vertices using formula:

[tex]\text{Sum of all interior angles of a polygon with n sides}=180(n-2)[/tex].

Upon substituting the given sum of the measures of the angles in this formula we will get,

[tex]6120=180(n-2)[/tex]

Using distributive property [tex]a(b+c)=a*b+a*c[/tex] we will get,

[tex]6120=180n-360[/tex]

Adding 360 to both sides of our equation we will get,

[tex]6120+360=180n-360+360[/tex]

[tex]6480=180n[/tex]

Upon dividing both sides of our equation by 180 we will get,

[tex]\frac{6480}{180}=\frac{180n}{180}[/tex]

[tex]36=n[/tex]

As the cars are located on the vertices of regular polygon, so there will be 36 cars in the ride.

We are told that each car holds a maximum of 4 people, so the number of maximum people who can ride at one time will be equal to 4 times 36.

[tex]\text{Maximum number of people who can be on the ride at one time}=4\times 36[/tex]

[tex]\text{Maximum number of people who can be on the ride at one time}=144[/tex]

Therefore, the maximum number of people who can be on the ride at one time is 144 people.

The maximum number of people who can be on the ride at one time is 144, given that each car holds a maximum of four people.

Step 1

To find the maximum number of people who can be on the ride at one time, we need to determine the number of cars first, which is equal to the number of vertices in the regular polygon.

We know that the sum of the measures of the angles at the vertices of a polygon is given by the formula [tex]\(180^\circ \times (n - 2)\)[/tex], where n is the number of sides of the polygon.

Given that the sum of the measures of the angles' vertices is 6120°, we can set up the equation as follows:

[tex]\[180^\circ \times (n - 2) = 6120^\circ\][/tex]

Step 2

Solving for n:

[tex]\[n - 2 = \frac{6120^\circ}{180^\circ}\][/tex]

[tex]\[n - 2 = 34\][/tex]

[tex]\[n = 36\][/tex]

So, there are 36 cars on the ride. Since each car holds a maximum of four people, the maximum number of people who can be on the ride at one time is [tex]\(36 \times 4 = 144\)[/tex] people.

the answer to the question is c

Given these two equations:

1) 5x + y = 2
2) 4x + y = 4

Let's solve for x and y step by step.

Step 1: We start by subtracting equation (2) from equation (1) to eliminate y:

This gives us:

5x - 4x = 2 - 4

Which simplifies to:

x = -2

Step 2: Now, we substitute x = -2 into the equation (1) to find the value of y:

5*(-2) + y = 2

Which simplifies to:

-10 + y = 2
And therefore:

y = 12

So, the solution to the system of equations is x = -2 and y = 12.

We are told that Andy buys x cakes. Betty buys 4 times as many cakes as Andy. So number of cakes bought by Betty will be 4*x.

We are also told that Colin buys 3 more cakes than Andy. So number of cakes bought by Colin will be x+3 cakes.

Each cake costs 65 p. The total cost of the cakes is $52.65. We can represent this information as:

[tex]0.65(x+4*x+x+3)=52.65[/tex]

[tex]0.65(2x+4*x+3)=52.65[/tex]

[tex]1.3x+2.6x+1.95=52.65[/tex]  

Let us combine like terms.

[tex](1.3+2.6)x+1.95=52.65[/tex]

[tex]3.9x+1.95=52.65[/tex]

[tex]3.9x=52.65-1.95[/tex]

[tex]3.9x=50.7[/tex]

[tex]x=13[/tex]

Therefore, Andy bought 13 cakes.

Let us find number of cakes bought by Betty by substituting x=13 in expression 4*x.

[tex]\text{Cakes bought by Betty}=4*13[/tex]

[tex]\text{Cakes bought by Betty}=52[/tex]

Therefore, Betty bought 52 cakes.

Now we will find number of cakes bought by Colin by substituting x=13 in expression x+3.

[tex]\text{Cakes bought by Colin}=13+3[/tex]

[tex]\text{Cakes bought by Colin}=16[/tex]

Therefore, Colin bought 16 cakes.

Final answer:

Andy bought 13 cakes, Betty bought 52 cakes, and Colin bought 16 cakes.

Explanation:

Let's break down the given information and solve the problem step by step:

Let the number of cakes bought by Andy be x.

Betty buys 4 times as many cakes as Andy, so she buys 4x cakes.

Colin buys 3 more cakes than Andy, so he buys (x+3) cakes.

The total cost of the cakes is €52.65, and each cake costs 65p.

Now, we can create the equation to find the value of x:

x*(65p) + 4x*(65p) + (x+3)*(65p) = £52.65

Simplifying the equation:

65x + 260x + 65x + 195 = 5265

390x + 195 = 5265

390x = 5070

x = 13

So, Andy bought 13 cakes, Betty bought 4x13 = 52 cakes, and Colin bought (13+3) = 16 cakes.
