Answer:

Number of games won = 110

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total games played = 154

The ratio of number of games won to number of games lost = [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Solution:

Let the number of games won be = [tex]5x[/tex]

Thus, number of games lost = [tex]2x[/tex]

The total games played can be given as = [tex]5x+2x=7x[/tex]

Thus, we have:

[tex]7x=154[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 7.

[tex]\frac{7x}{7}=\frac{154}{7}[/tex]

∴ [tex]x=22[/tex]

So, number of games won  = [tex]5\times 22 = 110[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In this context, D means "domain" and R means "range." The domain of a function is the list of input values for which the function is defined. For ordered pairs, it is the first number of the pair. For an x-y table, it is the list of x-values. For a graph, it is the possible values of x.

A relation is a function only if there are no repeated values in the domain (2 or more outputs for the same input.)

The range of a function is the list of output values produced by the function. For ordered pairs, it is the second number of the pair. For an x-y table, it is the list of y-values. For a graph, it is the possible values of y.

Answer:

-13

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

[tex]\frac{x}{a}=4[/tex]

[tex]\frac{a}{y}=6[/tex]

[tex]a^2=9[/tex]

[tex]ab^2=-8[/tex]

Since [tex]ab^2=-8[/tex] then [tex]a[/tex] has to be negative.

Solving [tex]a^2=9[/tex] therefore gives [tex]a=-3[/tex].

(Note: [tex](-3)^2=(-3)(-3)=9[/tex].)

[tex]\frac{x}{a}=4[/tex] and [tex]a=-3[/tex] gives us:

[tex]\frac{x}{-3}=4[/tex].

Multiplying both sides by -3 gives: [tex]x=-12[/tex].

[tex]\frac{a}{y}=6[/tex] and [tex]a=-3[/tex] gives us:

[tex]\frac{-3}{y}=6[/tex].

Multiplying both sides by [tex]y[/tex] gives: [tex]-3=6y[/tex].

Divide both sides by 6 gives: [tex]\frac{-3}{6}=y[/tex].

Simplifying this gives us [tex]\frac{-1}{2}=y[/tex].

Now we are asked to find the numerical value for [tex]x+2y[/tex].

[tex]-12+2(\frac{-1}{2})[/tex]

Answer:

The graph is attached below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Zahra runs a 800-meter race at a constant speed.

Race starts from the finish line.

Finish line is at a distance of 800 m from the starting point.

Time is plotted on the x axis and Distance is plotted on the y axis.

So, the graph must start from the [tex]800^{th}[/tex] mark on the y axis when time is 0.

Now, the speed is constant which means that the slope of the line of distance versus time is a straight line because,

Speed [tex]=\frac{Distance}{TIme}[/tex].

Now, the graph should have the following properties:

1. Starting point of the graph should be (0, 800).

2. Final point of the graph should be (t, 0).

3. Slope should be constant everywhere. So, the graph must be a straight line.

Thus, the graph is a line joining the points (0, 800) and (t, 0) as shown below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: A = 1350.61

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula for calculating amount, which is given as

A = P [tex](1 + r)^{n}[/tex]

A = amount

P = Principal

r = rate

n = number of years

substituting the values given into the formula , we have

A = 1200 ([tex](1 + 0.03)^{4}[/tex]

A = 1200 ([tex](1.03)^{4}[/tex]

A = 1350.61

Therefore , the amount after four years is 1350.61

If Greg saves $20 per week from his paycheck, by the end of the year he would have saved $1,040, which is less than his goal of $1,500. Thus, he cannot reach his goal with this savings plan.

The question asks if Greg can save $1,500 in a year by putting away $20 from his weekly paycheck into a savings account. If we multiply $20 (the amount he saves each week) by 52 (the number of weeks in a year), we get $1,040. So, Greg will have saved $1,040 in a year, which is less than his goal of $1,500. Therefore, saving $20 from each weekly paycheck will not allow Greg to reach his goal of $1,500 in a year.

Answer:

The required equation of line is 3x + 2y =13

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given two points are we are supposed to find the line passing through the two points.

The given points are (3,2) and (5,-1).

There is only one line passing through these two points.

The slope of the given line = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex]

                                              = [tex]\frac{-3}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

7x15+40=145

9.5x15=142.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To ensure Jackie barely wins the race with a 40m headstart against Marion, who runs at 9.5 m/s, we can calculate the distance of the race to be 112 meters, which Jackie will cover in 16 seconds at her speed of 7 m/s.

To determine how long the race should be so that Jackie barely wins over Marion Jones, we can utilize the concept of relative motion in physics. Given Marion's speed is 9.5 m/s and Jackie's speed is 7 m/s, and Jackie gets a 40m headstart, we can set up an equation to find the time it takes for Marion to catch up to Jackie.

We know the distance covered is speed times time, so for Marion: distance = 9.5 m/s time, and for Jackie: distance = 40m (headstart) + 7 m/s time. Since we are looking for the point where they are at the same distance we can set the equations equal to each other: 9.5 time = 40 + 7 time. Solving for time gives us:

9.5t = 40 + 7t
=> 2.5t = 40
=> t = 40 / 2.5
=> t = 16 seconds

Jackie will win the race if the race ends exactly when Marion catches up to her, so the race should be:

distance = 7m/s
16s = 112 meters

Therefore, the race needs to be 112 meters long for Jackie to barely win with a 40m headstart against Marion.

Answer:

[tex]f(t) = 2430(1 + \frac{0.16}{4} )^{7 \times 4}[/tex]

The APR is 16%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jason writes the following function to represent the amount of money in his account after 7 years given quarterly compounding of the $2430 initial deposit as  

[tex]f(t) = 2430(1.04)^{28}[/tex] ......... (1)

a. If we want to rewrite the equation in the form  

[tex]f(t) = A(1 + \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}[/tex] .......... (2)

Then comparing equation (1) and (2) we get, A = 2430 and t = 7

Hence, 7n = 28

⇒ n = 4

Now, [tex]1 + \frac{r}{4} = 1.04[/tex]

⇒ r = 0.16 i.e. 16%  

Therefore, the expression is

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rather than picking, let's try to construct one from the description.

reflected over the x axis means -[tex]\sqrt{x}[/tex]

the vertex is usually at (0,0), now how do we move a graph?  or in other words  translating it.

To move left and right you use [tex]\sqrt{x-h}[/tex] where if you subtract h you move right and if you add h you move left.  we go from (0,0) to (-4,2).  so 0 to -4 is 4 left, so that means we add 4.

To move up and down we use [tex]\sqrt{x}+v[/tex] Here if v is positive you move up and if v is negative you move down.  going from (0,0) to (-4,2) it moves up 2

So now we put them all together [tex]-\sqrt{x+4}+2[/tex]  And if you look, C matches that exactly.

The correct equation is option C: y = -√(x + 4) + 2, which describes a square root function reflected across the x-axis with a vertex at (-4, 2).

We are given a square root function that is reflected across the x-axis and has a vertex at (-4, 2). Let's analyze which of the provided options fits this description step by step.

Thus, option C is the correct equation that describes the square root function reflected across the x-axis with a vertex at (-4, 2).

Answer:

The 9th term for given sequence is 16.777

Therefore the 9th term is [tex]a_{9}=16.777[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Given first three terms of a sequence are 100,80,64,...

Given [tex]a_{1}=100[/tex] ,[tex]a_{2}=80[/tex] , [tex]a_{3}=64[/tex],...

Given sequence is of the form of Geometric sequence

Therefore it can be written as [tex]{\{a,ar,ar^2,...}\}[/tex]

therefore a=100 , ar=80 , [tex]ar^2=64[/tex] ,...

To find common ratio

[tex]r=\frac{a_{2}}{a_{1}}[/tex]

[tex]r=\frac{80}{100}[/tex]

[tex]r=\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

[tex]r=\frac{a_{3}}{a_{2}}[/tex]

[tex]r=\frac{64}{80}[/tex]

[tex]r=\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Therefore [tex]r=\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

The nth term of the geometric sequence is

[tex]a_{n}=ar^{n-1}[/tex]

To find the 9th tem for the given geometric sequence is

[tex]a_{n}=ar^{n-1}[/tex]

put n=9, a=100 and  [tex]r=\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

[tex]a_{9}=100(\frac{4}{5})^{9-1}[/tex]

[tex]=100(\frac{4}{5})^{8}[/tex]

[tex]=100(\frac{4}{5}\times \frac{4}{5}\times \frac{4}{5}\times \frac{4}{5}\times \frac{4}{5}\times \frac{4}{5}\times \frac{4}{5}\times \frac{4}{5})[/tex]

[tex]=100(\frac{256\times 256}{625\times 625})[/tex]

[tex]=100(\frac{65536}{390625})[/tex]

[tex]=100(0.16777})[/tex]

[tex]=16.777[/tex]

Therefore [tex]a_{9}=16.777[/tex]

The 9th term is 16.777

Where "l" is the lenght and "w" is the width.

You can identify in the figure that:

Then, knowing the perimeter of the rectangle, you can make the subsitution into the formula:

 [tex]76=2(3z+1)+2(2z+2)[/tex]

Now you must simplify and solve for "z"

[tex]76=6z+2+4z+4\\\\76-6=10z\\\\70=10z\\\\\frac{70}{10}=z\\\\z=7[/tex]

Finally, substituting the value of "z" into  [tex]PQ=2z+2[/tex], you get:

Answer:

[tex]sd(X)=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{250*0.427*(1-0.427)}=7.82[/tex]

The best option is:

B.7.82

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".  

Data given

[tex]p_C[/tex] represent the real population proportion for residents born in Colorado  

[tex]\hat p_C =0.427[/tex] represent the estimated proportion for rsidents born in Colorado

[tex]n_C=250[/tex] is the sample size selected

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest (number of residents in the sample), on this case we now that:  

[tex]X \sim Binom(n=250, p=0.427)[/tex]  

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:  

[tex]P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]  

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

[tex]nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}[/tex]  

The expected value is given by this formula:

[tex]E(X) = np=250*0.427=106.75[/tex]

And the standard deviation for the random variable is given by:

[tex]sd(X)=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{250*0.427*(1-0.427)}=7.82[/tex]

The best option is:

B.7.82

The standard deviation of the number of residents in the sample who were born in Colorado

B.7.82

hence option B is correct

Given

42.7 % of Colorado residents were born in Colorado.

If a sample of 250 Colorado residents is selected at random

We have to find out  the standard deviation of the number of residents in the sample who were born in Colorado

The options are given below  

A.6.75

B.7.82

C.10.33

D.11.97

E.61.17

This problem is given problem of binomial distribution  is a discrete probability distribution of two independent events for the given parameters.

Number of Colorado students taken in sample = n =  250

Let, the percentage of Colorado residents that were born in Colorado be p

Let, the percentage of Colorado residents that were not  born in Colorado be q

The percentage of Colorado residents that were born in Colorado = 42.7% = p = 0.427

[tex]\rm \m for \; a \; binomeal\; distribution \to p = 1-q ......(1)\\Equation \ (1)\; holds\; good[/tex]

So The percentage of Colorado residents that were not born in Colorado =   q = (100-42.7) =  57.3 %

The standard deviation for binomial distribution is given by the formula as formulated in the equation number (1)

[tex]\rm \sigma = \sqrt{ n\times p\times q } .......(1)[/tex]

So we can write

Standard deviation of binomial distribution

[tex]\rm \sigma = \sqrt{ 250 \times \0.427 \times 0.573 } = 7.82[/tex]

The standard deviation of the number of residents in the sample who were born in Colorado

B.7.82

hence option B is correct

Answer:

A) The repair bill would be at least $320 after 8 hours

B) The repairman would have worked for 5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Set up your equation with x equaling hours

30x + 80 = 320

subtract 80 to the opposite side of the equation

30x = 240

divide by 30

30x/30 = 240/30

x = 8

B) Set up your equation with x equaling hours

30x + 80 = 230

subtract 80 to the opposite side of the equation

30x = 150

divide by 30

30x/30 = 150/30

x = 5

After setting up inequalities for each scenario, we find that for the cost of the repair to be at least $320, at least 8 hours of work are required. When the total bill is $230, the repair person worked for 5 hours.

To answer question (a) on how many hours the repair would need to be at least $320 given an initial fee of $80 and an hourly rate of $30, we set up the inequality:

80 + 30h ≥ 320

Subtract 80 from both sides to isolate the hourly term:

30h ≥ 240

Divide both sides by 30 to solve for h:

h ≥ 8

So, the repair would need to be at least 8 hours to cost $320.

To answer question (b) on how many hours the repair person worked for a total bill of $230, we use the equation:

80 + 30h = 230

Subtract 80 from both sides:

30h = 150

Divide both sides by 30:

h = 5

The repair person worked for 5 hours.

Answer:

The diameter of the sphere is 6 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The surface area of a sphere is

[tex]SA=4\pi r^{2}[/tex]

The volume of the sphere is

[tex]V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}[/tex]

Equate both formulas

[tex]\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}=4\pi r^{2}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]\frac{1}{3}r^{3}=r^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{r^3}{r^2}=3[/tex]

[tex]r=3\ cm[/tex]

Remember that the diameter is two times the radius

so

[tex]D=2r=2(3)=6\ cm[/tex]

therefore

The diameter of the sphere is 6 centimeters

Final answer:

The diameter of a sphere where the surface area equals the volume is 1.5 cm.

Explanation:

To find the diameter of a sphere where the surface area in square centimeters is equal to the volume in cubic centimeters, we use the formulae for the surface area and volume of a sphere:

Since the surface area is equal to the volume (SA = V), we can set the equations equal to each other and solve for the radius (r):

Now that we have the radius, we can find the diameter, which is twice the radius:

Diameter (d) = 2r = 2 × (3/4) = 3/2 cm or 1.5 cm

1 Unit = 4 feet

To Find :

Number of plywood sheets the carpenter would need = "

Solution:

Step 1: Find the area of  square

Area of the square is

=>[tex]4^2[/tex]

=>[tex]16 cm^2[/tex]

Here we have 3 square, so

[tex]3 \times 16[/tex]

=>[tex]48 ft^2[/tex]

Step 2 : Area of the triangle

Area of the triangle is

=>[tex]\frac{1}{2} \times b\times h[/tex]

=>[tex]\frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 4[/tex]

=>[tex]\frac{16}{2} [/tex]

=>[tex]8ft^2[/tex]

[tex]2 \times 8 = 16ft^2[/tex]

Step 3: Finding the plywood needed

the total area of the  triangular prism is

48 + 16=  [tex]64 ft^2[/tex]

Area of the plywood wood is

=> [tex]4 \times 8[/tex]

=> [tex]32 ft^2[/tex]

Number of plywood required = [tex]\frac{\text {area of the prism}}{\text{area of one plywood}}[/tex]

=> [tex]\frac{64}{32}[/tex]

=> 2

The diary farmer should use 1000 pounds of 85 % protien and 55 % of 200 pounds to make 1200 pounds of a high-grade 80% protein ration

Solution:

Let the amount of 85 % protien supplement be "x"

Then amount of 55 % protien be (1200 - x)

According to given question,

85 % of "x" protien supplement + 55 % of 1200 - x protien used to get 80 % of 1200 pounds

85 % of x + 55 % of (1200 - x) = 80 % of 1200

[tex]\frac{85}{100} \times x + \frac{55}{100} \times (1200 - x) = \frac{80}{100} \times 1200\\\\0.85x + 0.55(1200 - x) = 960\\\\0.85x + 660 - 0.55x = 960\\\\0.3x = 960 - 660\\\\0.3x = 300\\\\x = 1000[/tex]

Pounds of 85 % protien used = 1000 pounds

Then pounds of 55 % protien used = 1200 - 1000 = 200 pounds

Thus he should use 1000 pounds of 85 % protien and 200 pounds of 55 % protien to get 1200 pounds of a high-grade 80% protein ration
