You need to buy 400 square feet of dirt for both companies to charge the same

Solution:

Given that,

Company A sells dirt for $137.5 for 50 square feet and has a delivery fee of $100 dollars

Dirt sold for $137.5 for 50 square feet

Let us find dirt sold for 1 square feet:

50 square feet = $ 137.5

1 square feet = [tex]\frac{137.5}{50} = 2.75[/tex]

Thus dirt sold for $2.75 for 1 square feet

Company A has a delivery fee of $ 100 dollars

Amount Charged by company A:

Let "x" be the amount of dirt bought for 1 square feet

A = 2.75(x) + 100

A = 2.75x + 100 --- eqn 1

Company B sells dirt for $15 for 5 square feet and offers free delivery

Dirt sold for $ 15 for 5 square feet

5 square feet = $ 15

1 square feet = [tex]\frac{15}{5} = 3[/tex]

Thus dirt sold for $ 3 for 1 square feet

Company B offers free delivery

Amount Charged by company B:

A = 3x  ---- eqn 2

Let us equate eqn 1 and eqn 2 to find the dirt you need to buy for both companies to charge the same

2.75x + 100 = 3x

3x - 2.75x = 100

0.25x = 100

x = 400

Thus you need to buy 400 square feet of dirt for both companies to charge the same

Final answer:

Jim will not have enough money to buy the car after 2 years with a bank account that pays 9.8% interest compounded continuously. The other bank offering 10% interest compounded semiannually is a better deal as Jim will have enough money to buy the car.

Explanation:

To determine if Jim will have enough money to buy a car that costs $12,160 after 2 years with a bank account that pays 9.8% interest compounded continuously, we can use the formula for compound interest:

A = P * e^(rt)

where A is the ending amount, P is the principal (initial amount), e is Euler's number (approximately 2.71828), r is the interest rate, and t is the number of years. Plugging in the values, we have:

A = $10,000 * e^(0.098*2) = $10,000 * e^0.196 ≈ $11,961.34

Therefore, Jim will not have enough money to buy the car.

To determine if the other bank offering 10% interest compounded semiannually is a better deal, we can use the same formula:

A = P * (1 + r/n)^(nt)

where n is the number of times interest is compounded per year. Plugging in the values, we have:

A = $10,000 * (1 + 0.10/2)^(2*2) = $10,000 * (1 + 0.05)^4 = $10,000 * 1.05^4 ≈ $12,265.63

Therefore, the other bank is a better deal as Jim will have enough money to buy the car.

Answer:

[tex]y=0.00673(253) +90.190=91.894[/tex]

And the difference is given by:

[tex]r_i =91.894-83=8.894[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation

We assume that th data is this one:

x: 242-255 -227-251-262-207-140

y: 91- 81 -91 - 92 - 102 - 94 - 91

Find the least-squares line appropriate for this data.  

For this case we need to calculate the slope with the following formula:

[tex]m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}[/tex]

[tex]S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}[/tex]

So we can find the sums like this:

[tex]\sum_{i=1}^n x_i =242+255+227+251+262+207+140=1584[/tex]

[tex]\sum_{i=1}^n y_i =91+ 81 +91 + 92 + 102 + 94 + 91=642[/tex]

[tex]\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i =242^2 +255 ^2 +227^2 +251^2 +262^2 +207^2 +140^2=369212[/tex]

[tex]\sum_{i=1}^n y^2_i =91^2 + 81 ^2 +91 ^2 + 92 ^2 + 102 ^2 + 94 ^2 + 91^2=59108[/tex]

[tex]\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i =242*91 +255*81 +227*91 +251*92 +262*102 +207*94 +140*91=145348[/tex]

With these we can find the sums:

[tex]S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}=369212-\frac{1584^2}{7}=10775.429[/tex]

[tex]S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}=145348-\frac{1584*642}{7}=72.571[/tex]

And the slope would be:

[tex]m=\frac{72.571}{10775.429}=0.00673[/tex]

Now we can find the means for x and y like this:

[tex]\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{1584}{7}=226.286[/tex]

[tex]\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{642}{7}=91.714[/tex]

And we can find the intercept using this:

[tex]b=\bar y -m \bar x=91.714-(0.00673*226.286)=90.190[/tex]

So the line would be given by:

[tex]y=0.00673 x +90.190[/tex]

The prediction for 253 seconds is:

[tex]y=0.00673(253) +90.190=91.894[/tex]

And the difference is given by:

[tex]r_i =91.894-83=8.894[/tex]

Answer: the total price of the necklace is $91.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The original Price of the necklace at Jared is is $99. It is on sale for 10% off. This means that there is a discount on the original price. The discount is 10/100 × 99 = $9.9

The new price of the necklace at Jared is the original price - the discount. It becomes

99 - 9.9 = $89.1

If there is a 3% tax on the discounted price, the amount of tax would be 3/100×89.1 = $2.673

The total cost of the necklace will be new cost + the amount of tax. It becomes

89.1 + 2.673 = $91.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t be the height of pole.

Given that the tree is 5 feet shorter than a pole.

Height of pole = t + 15

Also given that the pole is 3 times as tall as the tree.

Height of pole = 3t

So we have

              t + 15 = 3t

                 2t = 15

                   t = 7.5 feet

Height of tree = 7.5 feet

The question asks how tall a tree is if it is 15 feet shorter than a pole which is three times its height. The height of the tree can be found by setting up an equation to represent the problem and then solving for the height of the tree, which is 7.5 feet.

The subject of this question is a mathematical problem dealing with a tree and a pole with their heights related to one another. In the problem, we know that the pole is 15 feet taller than a tree and the pole is also 3 times as tall as the tree. We can set that up as an equation and solve for the height of the tree.

Let's call the height of the tree as 'T' and then, because the pole is three times the height of the tree, we can call the pole's height as '3T'. The problem tells us that the pole is also 15 feet taller than the tree, so we can express the pole's height as 'T + 15' as well.

Now we have two ways to express the pole's height: '3T' and 'T + 15'. We can set those equal to each other and solve for 'T'.

3T = T + 15

Subtract 'T' from both sides to get:

2T = 15

Then divide both sides by 2 and you get T = 7.5. Therefore, the tree is 7.5 feet tall.

Answer:

option B

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

sample of person interviewed 110

people voted for A = 67

percentage of the person voted for A = [tex]\dfrac{67}{110}[/tex]

                                                                 = 0.609

now, for all the people

Answer:

154.2g

Step-by-step explanation:

This is quite straightforward, what we need to add the masses together.

113g + 114g + 27.2g = 154.2g

The total weight of the smartphone, screen protector, and heavy duty phone case is 254.2 grams.

Given that the smartphone weighs 113 g, the screen protector weighs 27.2 g, and the heavy duty phone case weighs 114 g, the total weight (in gram) of the phone, screen protector, and case would simply be the sum of these weights. In this case, we take 113 g + 27.2 g + 114 g which results in 254.2 g as the total weight. Therefore, if you use both a screen protector and a heavy duty case to protect your phone, the total weight would be 254.2 g.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent function of an angle in a right triangle is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side. Here, the adjacent side is 500 ft, so we have ...

  tan(24°) = (building height)/(500 ft)

  building height = (500 ft)tan(24°) ≈ 222.61 ft

__

Similarly, the height to the top of the flagpole is ...

  total height = (500 ft)tan(27°) ≈ 254.76 ft

The length of the flagpole is the difference of these heights:

  flagpole length = 254.76 ft -222.61 ft = 32.15 ft

The height of the building is 222.61 ft; the length of the flagpole is 32.15 ft.

The height of the building is approximately 250.4 feet, and the length of the flagpole is approximately 24.4 feet, according to the principle of trigonometry using tangent function.

The question deals with a mathematical concept called trigonometry. Specifically, we will use the tangent function. Tangent of an angle in a right triangle is the ratio of the side opposite to the angle over the side adjacent to the angle.

Let's denote H as the height of the building and F as the length of the flagpole. We know that Tan(24°) = H / 500 and Tan(27°) = (H+F) / 500. Now we can solve these two equations to find H and F.

First, calculate H. Using the first equation, H = Tan(24°) * 500 ≈ 250.37 feet.

Next, calculate H+F. Using the second equation, H+F = Tan(27°) * 500 ≈ 274.73 feet.

Then, calculate F by subtracting H from the second result. So F = 274.73 - 250.37 = 24.36 feet.

Therefore, the height of the building is approximately 250.4 feet, and the length of the flagpole is approximately 24.4 feet.

Answer:

At Present Jane has Total Stickers = 251

Step-by-step explanation:

Stickers Initially = 27

Jane bought stickers on 1st day = 3

Remaining days = 13

Each next day she bought 2 more stickers than the previous day, so:

Stickers bought in the last 2 weeks (14 days) = n+(n+2)+(n+2+2)+(n+2+2+2)+.............+(n+2(13))

here n =3

So:

Stickers bought in the last 2 weeks (14 days) = 3+5+7+9+11+13+15+17+19+21+23+25+27+29

Stickers bought in the last 2 weeks (14 days) = 224

At Present Jane has Total Stickers = Stickers Initially+ Stickers bought in the last 2 weeks (14 days)

At Present Jane has Total Stickers = 27+224

At Present Jane has Total Stickers = 251

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The sum of the angles on a straight line is 180 degrees. This means that

51 + b + 110 = 180

161 + b = 180

b = 180 - 161 = 19 degrees

2) Angle a = 60 degrees. This is so because they are vertically opposite angles.

3)The sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. Therefore

angle a + angle b + angle c

60 + 19 + c = 180

79 + c = 180

c = 180 - 79 = 101 degrees

4) d + c = 180(sum of the angles on a straight line is 180 degrees). Therefore

d + 101 = 180

d = 180 - 101 = 79 degrees.

5) e + 51 + b + a = 180( sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees). Therefore

e + 51 + 60 + 19 = 180

e + 130 = 180

e = 180 - 130 = 50 degrees

Answer:

E. $6,154

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent selling price of the bond.

We have been given that last year a certain bond with a face value of $5,000 yielded 8 percent of its face value in interest.

Let us calculate 8% of $5,000 to find amount of interest as:

[tex]\text{Amount of interest }=\$5,000\times \frac{8}{100}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Amount of interest }=\$50\times 8[/tex]

[tex]\text{Amount of interest }=\$400[/tex]

We are also told that the amount of interest was approximately 6.5 percent of the bond's selling price. 6.5 percent of the bond's selling price would be [tex]\frac{6.5}{100}x[/tex].

We can represent our given information in an equation as:

[tex]\frac{6.5}{100}x=\$400[/tex]

[tex]100*\frac{6.5}{100}x=\$400*100[/tex]

[tex]6.5x=\$40,000[/tex]

[tex]\frac{6.5x}{6.5}=\frac{\$40,000}{6.5}[/tex]

[tex]x=\$6,153.846153846[/tex]

[tex]x\approx \$6,154[/tex]

Therefore, the selling price of the bond was approximately $6,154 and option E is the correct choice.

Answer:

Mrs. Allan's Car will use 20 gallons of gas for 560 miles trip.

Mrs. Owen's Car will use 16 gallons of gas for 560 miles trip.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of Miles for Mrs Allan car = 224 miles

Number of gallons of gas required = 8

We need to find the number of gallons of gas required for 560 miles for Mrs. Allan's car.

First we will find, in 1 gallons how many miles does Mrs Allan's Car drives.

For 8 gallons = 224 miles

So for 1 gallons = Number of miles in 1 gallon of gas

By using Unitary method we get;

Number of miles in 1 gallon of gas = [tex]\frac{224}{8}= 28\ miles[/tex]

Now we know that;

for 28 miles = 1 gallon of gas is required.

So for 560 miles = Number of gallon of gas required in 560 miles.

Again by using Unitary method we get;

Number of gallon of gas required in 560 miles = [tex]\frac{560}{28}= 20\ gallons[/tex]

Hence Mrs. Allan's Car will use 20 gallons of gas for 560 miles trip.

Also Given:

Number of Miles for Mrs Owen's car = 210 miles

Number of gallons of gas required = 6

We need to find the number of gallons of gas required for 560 miles for Mrs. Owen's car.

First we will find, in 1 gallons how many miles does Mrs Owen's Car drives.

For 6 gallons = 210 miles

So for 1 gallons = Number of miles in 1 gallon of gas

By using Unitary method we get;

Number of miles in 1 gallon of gas = [tex]\frac{210}{6}= 35\ miles[/tex]

Now we know that;

for 35 miles = 1 gallon of gas is required.

So for 560 miles = Number of gallon of gas required in 560 miles.

Again by using Unitary method we get;

Number of gallon of gas required in 560 miles = [tex]\frac{560}{35}= 16\ gallons[/tex]

Hence Mrs. Owen's Car will use 16 gallons of gas for 560 miles trip.

Answer:

Not mutually exclusive

Step-by-step explanation:

In the rule of probability, for two events to be mutually exclusive, the probability of them occuring at the same time must be 0.

In this case P(true and false) = 0 to be mutually exclusive.

In the term of Vann diagram 'true and false' in this case represent the intersection of two events 'true' and 'false'. And if it is shown in Vann diagram, both group will be apart from each other or the value inside the Vann diagram is 0.

Therefore,

We know from statistics that

P(A and B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A or B)

Translating into this case

P(true or false) = P(true) + P(false) - P(true and false)

= 0.9 + 0.82 - 0.75 = 0.97

Therefore, this event is not mutually exclusive.

Answer:

[tex].2x^2-100x+300=cost[/tex]

For the second one:

P(x)*T(x) = [tex](x^2-3x-7)(3x)[/tex]

Distribute the 3x into everything inside the parenthesis to get

[tex]3x^3-9x^2-21x[/tex]

For the second part of that problem, C(x)*P(x) = [tex](x-4)(x^2-3x-7)[/tex]

Distribute the x into everything first to get:

[tex]x^3-3x^2-7x[/tex]

The distribute the -4 into everything to get:

[tex]-4x^2+12x+28[/tex]

Combine the like terms and put everything together to get

[tex]x^3-7x^2+5x+28[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The choices are missing in the question, correct question is:

In a January 2017 Washington Post-ABC News poll, respondents were asked “There is a proposal to offer nearly 140 billion dollars in tax cuts for private companies if they pay to build new roads, bridges and transportation projects. The companies then could charge tolls for people to use these roads, bridges and transportation. Do you support or oppose this proposal?” Of the 1005 people polled, 66 percent of those surveyed said they oppose the above proposal. An objective of this study is to ________ .

a. test a claim about a population mean

b. estimate a population mean

c. test a claim about a population proportion

d. estimate a population proportion

Population proportion estimate will give the percentage of people who support or oppose the proposal of 140 billion dollars in tax cuts for private companies so that they build charge tolled new roads, bridges and transportation projects.

People are asked "Do you support or oppose this proposal?", this shows that the purpose of the study is to estimate a population proportion.

The Washington Post-ABC News poll aimed to calculate public opinion on a policy proposal regarding tax cuts and infrastructural developments paid by private companies. The majority of respondents opposed the proposal signifying its unpopularity among the surveyed population. However, results from this single poll may not represent wider public sentiment.

The question pertains to a public policy proposal. In a Washington Post-ABC News poll from January 2017, participants were asked to indicate their support or opposition to a proposition concerning tax cuts and infrastructure development funded by private companies. The question revolves around an actual policy proposal that could have impacts on the economy and society. The study's objective in this case is to gauge public opinion on the proposal, which could be used to inform policy decisions or strategies by politicians, businesses, or advocacy groups.

The fact that 66 percent of the 1005 people polled opposed the proposal suggests a majority of the respondents were not in favor of the plan. In recognizing such data and understanding its implications, it is important to remember that this is just one poll and may not necessarily represent the broader public's views.

The equation 90x + 1600 = y is an equation of a straight line in the form y = mc + c

Adjusting the equation to the general form we get

y = 90x + 1600

m = 90

c = 1600

a) the change in Mary's total pay for each copy she sells in this case is referring to the change of y to the change of x.

In other word, it is the slope of the function.

m = 90

b) if Mary didn't sell any copies, the value of x will be 0.

In graph of a straight line, the value when x= 0 is at the value of y-intercept,

c = 1600

A.) graph of two lines that intersect at the point negative 1, 1, with text on graph that reads One Solution negative 1, 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The two simultaneous equation given are;

y+2x= -1

3y-x=4

multiply the first equation by 1 and the second equation by 2 to make the terms with x equal

y+2x = -1

6y-2x=8

-------------- ---add the terms with x to eliminate x

7y=7 -------divide both sides by 7 to remain with y

7y/7 =7/7

y= 1 -----use the value of y in the first equation

y+2x= -1

1+2x= -1

2x= -2

2x/2= -2/2

x= -1

The solution is (-1,1)

You can plot the equations on a graph tool as shown below to visualize the solution where the two linear equations intersect

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

the appropriate conclusion is that

The samples provide evidence that there is a statistically significant difference between the starting salary of chemical engineering and electrical engineering graduates at the University of Texas at Austin for 2013-2014.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the p-value is small, it indicates statistically significant results. This means that there is a statistically significant difference between the starting salary of chemical engineering and electrical engineering graduates at the University of Texas at Austin for 2013-2014.

The samples provide evidence of a statistically significant difference in the starting salaries between chemical engineering and electrical engineering graduates at the University of Texas at Austin for 2013-2014, as indicated by the p-value of 0.0142, which is below the 0.05 significance level.

Detailed explanation:

The journalist's question concerns whether there is a significant difference in the starting salaries of chemical engineering and electrical engineering graduates at the University of Texas at Austin for the academic year 2013-2014. The test statistic is t = 2.4693 with a p-value of 0.0142.

The samples provide evidence that there is a statistically significant difference between the starting salary of chemical engineering and electrical engineering graduates at the University of Texas at Austin for 2013-2014. This conclusion is reached because the p-value is less than the common significance level of 0.05, thus we reject the null hypothesis, which states that there is no difference in starting salaries between the two groups.

Hence the final answer is that there is a statistically significant difference between the starting salary of chemical engineering and electrical engineering graduates at the University of Texas at Austin for 2013-2014

Hence the first option is correct

Answer:

D) 2, 4, 8, 16, 32

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given four sets of sequence.

And we have to find out which sequence is not an arithmetic sequence.

For this the given sequences should satisfy the value of common difference(d) and Arithmetic Progression formula.

A.P. Formula,

[tex]T_n=a+(n-1)d[/tex]

Where [tex]T_n[/tex] = nth term of an A.P.

a = first term of an A.P.

n = number of terms.

d = common difference.

'd' is calculated by subtracting fist term from second term.

[tex]d = second\ term-first\ term[/tex]

A) 4, 7, 10, 13, 16

[tex]d = 7-4=3[/tex]

[tex]d = 10-7=3[/tex]

Here d=3 and 5th term is 16.

So we find out the 5th term by using the formula of A.P. To check whether the sequence is in A.P. or not.

[tex]T_5=4+(5-1)3=4+4\times\ 3=4+12=16[/tex]

Here the given sequence fulfills the condition of being in A.P.

Hence the given sequence is an arithmetic sequence.

B) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

[tex]d =2-1=1[/tex]

[tex]d =3-2=1[/tex]

Here d=1 and 5th term is 5.

[tex]T_5=1+(5-1)1=1+4=5[/tex]

Here the given sequence fulfills the condition of being in A.P.

Hence the given sequence is an arithmetic sequence.

C) 15, 9, 3, -3, -9

[tex]d =9-15=-6[/tex]

[tex]d =3-9=-6[/tex]

Here d=-6 and 5th term is -9.

[tex]T_5=15+(5-1)-6=15+4\times -6=15+(-24)=-9[/tex]

Here the given sequence fulfills the condition of being in A.P.

Hence the given sequence is an arithmetic sequence.

D) 2, 4, 8, 16, 32

[tex]d_1=4-2=2[/tex]

[tex]d_2=8-4=4[/tex]

Here [tex]d_1=2\ But\ d_2=4[/tex]

The common difference between the terms is not same.

In case of [tex]d_1[/tex].

[tex]T_5=2+(5-1)2=2+4\times 2=2+8=10[/tex]

In case of [tex]d_2[/tex].

[tex]T_5=2+(5-1)4=2+4\times 4=2+16=18[/tex]

Here the given sequence does not fulfills the condition of being in A.P.

Hence the given sequence is not an arithmetic sequence.

Hence the correct option is D) 2, 4, 8, 16, 32.
