Step-by-step explanation:

Sadie brought $28.00 to the art supply store. She bought a brush, a sketchbook, and a paint set. The brush was 1/3 as much as the sketchbook, and the sketchbook cost 1/2 the cost of the paint set. Sadie had $3.00 leftover after buying these items. What was the cost of each item?

Answers

Answer:

cost of paint set = $ 13.64

cost of sketch book = $ 6.82

cost of brush = $ 4.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of paint set is s.

cost of sketch book = s/2

cost of brush = s/3

Money spent = $ 28 - $ 3 = $ 25

So,

s +  s/2 + s/3 = 25

6 s + 3 s + 2 s = 150

11 s = 150

s = $ 13.64

cost of paint set = $ 13.64

cost of sketch book = $ 6.82

cost of brush = $ 4.55

Answer:

  m∠3 = 63°

Step-by-step explanation:

Where a transversal crosses parallel lines, all of the obtuse angles are congruent, and all of the acute angles are congruent. The obtuse and acute angles are supplementary.

Angle 1 is an obtuse angle; angle 3 is an acute angle.

  angle 3 = 180° - angle 1 = 180° -117° = 63°

The measure of angle 3 is 63°.

_____

Additional comment

There are a number of applicable theorems describing the different angle relationships. Taken together, they are summarized by the first statement above. For example, we could declare angles 1 and 4 to be "corresponding" (hence, congruent), and angles 4 and 3 to be a "linear pair", hence supplementary. The net result is that angle 1 is supplementary to angle 3, as we said above.

We could also get there via relations between alternate exterior angles, alternate interior angles, consecutive exterior or interior angles, and other ways. While that terminology is useful to understand in some problems, it is largely irrelevant here.

A rectangular room is 1.2 1.2 times as long as it is wide, and its perimeter is 35 35 meters. Find the dimension of the room.

Answers

Answer:

I. Length, L = 9.552 meters

II. Width, W = 7.96 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length = L

Let the width = W

Given the following data;

Perimeter = 35 m

Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation, we have;

Length = 1.2W

To find the dimension of the room;

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula;

P = 2(L + W)

Substituting into the formula, we have;

35 = 2(1.2W + W)

35 = 2(2.2W)

35 = 4.4W

Width, W = 7.96 meters

Next, we would find the length of the rectangle;

L = 1.2*W

L = 1.2 * 7.96

Length, L = 9.552 meters

A scale model of a building has a scale of 3 : 79.
The height of the real building is 24 m.
Find the height of the scale model.
Give your answer in cm to 2 dp.

Answers

Answer:

The height of the scale model is of 91.14 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale problems are solved by proportions, using rule of three.

A scale model of a building has a scale of 3 : 79.

This means that 3m on the drawing represent 79m of real height.

The height of the real building is 24 m.

3m - 79m

xm - 24m

Applying cross multiplication

[tex]79x = 72[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{72}{79}[/tex]

[tex]x = 0.9114[/tex]

In centimeters:

Multiplying by 100:

0.9114*100 = 91.14 cm.

The shortest route from London to Oxford is 55 miles.
A lorry is expected to take 1.1 hours to travel this route.
The lorry actually travels by a different route which increases the distance by 15%, but it still arrives in 1.1 hours.
By how many more mph than the expected speed does the lorry travel?

Answers

Answer:

so to find the mph of the lorry for the original route we divide 66 by 55 since it 66 is 1.1 of 60

66 divided by 55=1.2

so it takes 1 minutes 12 seconds for the lorry to go a mile

now we multiply 55 by 1.15=63.25

so we divide 66 by 63.25=1.04347826087

so it takes 1 minute and 1 second for the the lorry to go a miles

1 minute 1 second is 59 miles per hour

1 minute 12 seconds is 50 miles per hour

so the lorry travels 9 mph over its expected speed

Hope This Helps!!!

Answer:  7.5 mph faster

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

Explanation:

distance = rate*time

d = r*t

r = d/t

r = 55/1.1

r = 50

The lorry's original speed is 50 mph when going the original route.

-----------------

Now consider the longer route, which is 15% longer compared to the original 55 mile route. So the longer route is 1.15*55 = 63.25 miles exactly. Or you could say 15% of 55 = 0.15*55 = 8.25 which adds onto the original 55 to get 55+8.25 = 53.25; either way the longer distance is 63.25 miles.

Computing the new rate or speed gets us

r = d/t

r = 63.25/1.1

r = 57.5

-----------------

When traveling the original route, the lorry goes 50 mph. When traveling the longer route, the lorry goes 57.5 mph. This is a difference of 57.5 - 50 = 7.5 mph

Meaning that the lorry must drive 7.5 mph faster on the longer route compared to the shortest route. This is if the driver wants to make the trip in the same 1.1 hour timeframe.

Note: 1.1 hours = 1.1*60 = 66 minutes = 1 hour, 6 minutes.

Rewrite |3x+5|<or equals to 1 without absolute
value sign​

Answers

Answer:

remember how the absolute value works:

|x| = x   if x ≥ 0

|x| = -x  if x < 0

Then we can rewrite:

|x| ≤ a

as:

-a ≤ x ≤ a

Now let's apply this to our case:

|3x + 5| ≤ 1

we can rewrite this as:

-1 ≤ 3x + 5 ≤ 1

We could solve this for x now, first subtracting 5 in the 3 sides:

-1 - 5 ≤ 3x + 5 - 5 ≤ 1 - 5

-6 ≤ 3x ≤ -4

now dividing by 3 in the 3 sides:

-6/3 ≤ 3x/3 ≤ -4/3

-2 ≤ x ≤ -(4/3)

So we rewrote the inequality without the absolute value part.

David has available 240 yards of fencing and wishes to enclose a rectangular area.
(a) Express the area A of the rectangle as a function of the width W of the rectangle.
(b) For what value of W is the area largest?
(c) What is the maximum area?

Answers

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2*width + 2*length

So

240 = 2w + 2l

120 = w + l

l = 120 - w

(a) Area = w*l

Substituting for l:

A = w(120 - w)

A = 120w - w^2

(b)

Finding the derivative:

A = 120w - w^2

A' = 120 - 2w

For a maximum area A' = 0, so:

120 - 2w = 0

2w = 120

w = 60 yards for maximum area.

(c)

Maximum area

= 120*60 - 60^2

= 3600 yd^2.

In Japanese criminal trials, about 95% of the defendants are found guilty. In the United States, about 60% of the defendants are found guilty in criminal trials. Suppose you are a news reporter following twelve criminal trials.
(a) If the trials were in Japan, what is the probability that all the defendants would be found guilty? What is this probability if the trials were in the United States?
(b) Of the ten trials, what is the expected number of guilty verdicts in Japan? What is the expected number in the United Sates? What is the standard deviation in each case?

Answers

Answer:

a) Japan =0.599

US= 0.006

b) Japan

Variance= 0.475

Standard Deviation =0.69

USA

Variance =2.4

Standard Deviation= 1.55

Step-by-step explanation:

A represents the number of defendants found guilty in Japan in 10 trials

B represents the number of defendants found guilty in US in 10 trials

A represents a binomial function such that n=10,p=0.95 and B represents a binomial function such that n=10,p=0.60

a) Japan: P(A=10)=0.95^10=0.599

US: P(B=10)=0.60^10=0.006

b) Japan:

Expected number of guilty verdicts in 10 trials in Japan =  np=10*0.95=9.5

Variance: Var(A) = np(1-p) = 10*0.95*(1-0.95) = 0.475

Standard Deviation = sd(A)=√0.475=0.69

US:

Expected number of guilty verdicts in 10 trials in USA = np=10*0.60=6

Variance: Var(B)=np(1-p)=10*0.6*0.4=2.4

Standard Deviation sd(B)=√2.4=1.55

Assume that a population is normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. Would it be unusual for the mean of a sample of 3 to be 115 or more? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

|Z| < 2, which means that it would not be unusual for the mean of a sample of 3 to be 115 or more.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

If [tex]|Z| > 2[/tex], the value of X is considered to be unusual.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Assume that a population is normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15.

This means that [tex]\mu = 100, \sigma = 15[/tex]

Sample of 3

This means that [tex]n = 3, s = \frac{15}{\sqrt{3}}[/tex]

Would it be unusual for the mean of a sample of 3 to be 115 or more? Why or why not?

We have to find the z-score.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{115 - 100}{\frac{15}{\sqrt{3}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.73[/tex]

|Z| < 2, which means that it would not be unusual for the mean of a sample of 3 to be 115 or more.

Type the correct answer in each box. Functions h and K are inverse functions, and both are defined for all real numbers Using this relationship, what is the value of each function composition?
(h o k) (3)=
(k o h)(-4b) =​

Answers

Answer:

(h o k) (3) = 3

(k o h) (-4b) = -4b

Step-by-step explanation:

An inverse function is the opposite of a function. An easy way to find inverse functions is to treat the evaluator like another variable, then solve for the input variable in terms of the evaluator. One property of inverse functions is that when one finds the composition of inverse functions, the result is the input value, no matter the order in which one uses the functions in the combination. This is because all terms in a function and their inverse cancel each other and the result is the input. Thus, when one multiplies two functions that are inverse of each other, no matter the input, the output will always be the input value.

This holds true in this case, it is given that (h) and (k) are inverses. While one is not given the actual function, one knows that the composition of the functions (h) and (k) will result in the input variable. Therefore, even though different numbers are being evaluated in the composition, the output will always be the input.

Our vertex coordinate is (5, 3)

Thus;

y = a(x - 5)² + 3

Now,we are given another coordinate as (8, 12)

Thus;

12 = a(8 - 5)² + 3

12 = 9a + 3

9a = 12 - 3

9a = 9

a = 9/9

a = 1
