9. YOU BE THE TEACHER Your friend
says 9 divided by 2.5 is about 3. Is your friend's
estimate reasonable? Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, it's reasonable.

What you are doing is solving the question by rounding. You come up with an answer. Suppose you loose the decimal somewhere and you get 0.36? Is that reasonable? Do you just write the answer in the provided blank and move on. What now?

You get it wrong?!!

But your estimate should be about 9/3 = 3. Now you look at your calculator with great misgivings, because it made a mistake. Did it or did you? Well ultimately you did, but you have to blame something. So the calculator takes the heat.

Who  knows? Maybe the decimal doesn't work. It's stuck or something. In any event you should be aware that there's no way the answer could be 0.36 when you estimate it to be 3.

The length of a rectangle garden plot is 3 metres greater than its
width.The area of the plot is 154 square metres.What is the width of the garden?​

Answers

Answer: width = 11 m

Concept:

Here, we need to understand how to find the area of a rectangle.

In geometry, the area can be defined as the space occupied by a flat shape or the surface of an object.

A = w · l

w = width

l = length

If you are still confused, please refer to the attachment below for a graphical explanation.

Solve:

w = w

l = w + 3

A = 154 m²

Given formula

A = w · l

Substitute values into the formula

154 = w · (w + 3)

Expand Parentheses (Distributive property)

154 = w² + 3w

Subtract 154 on both sides

154 - 154 = w² + 3w - 154

0 = w² + 3w - 154

Solve for the quadratic equation

(w - 11) (w + 14) = 0

w = 11 or w = -14 (Neglected because length cannot be negative)

Hope this helps!! :)

what is the answer I need help?

Answers

Answer:

8 1/8 units^3

Step-by-step explanation:

This figure is a rectangular prism, and the volume of a rectangular prism is given by the formula:

lwh

But since we have the area of the base snd the height of the figure, there is also one formula that we can use to find the volume:

bh

Which means area of base times the height.

USE THE FORMULA bh:

16 1/4 x 1/2

= 65/4 x 1/2

= 65/8

SIMPLIFIED: 8 1/8

Volume is measured in cubic units

SO YOUR ANSWER IS 8 1/8 units^3

It takes 12 people 15 hours to complete and certain job.how many hours would it take 18 people, working at the same rate to complete 2/5 of the same job?

Answers

Answer:

2 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Required man hours to complete the full job = 12 *15

                                                                           =180 Man hours

Required man hours to complete the 2/5 of the job = 180/5

                                                                                      = 36 Man hours

if 18 peoples are working,

required hours to complete the 2/5 of the job = 36 /18

                                                                            = 2 hours

Answers

Answer:

0.8333

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Mean, X = 100

Lower Specification Limit, LSL = 100 - 10 = 90

Upper Specification Limit, USL = 100 + 10 = 110

Standard Deviation, σ = 4

The process capability index, Cpk;

Cpk = Min[(X - LSL) / 3σ; (USL - X) /3σ]

Cpk = Min[(100 - 90) / 12 ; (110 - 100 ) /12]

Cpk = Min [0.8333 ; 0.8333]

Hence, Cpk = 0.8333

Answers

Answers:

Discount price = 280.50 dollarsAmount lost =  49.50 dollars

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

Explanation:

If it's sold at a loss of 15%, then the store owner loses 0.15*330 = 49.50 dollars

So it was sold for 330- 49.50 =  280.50 dollars

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

An alternative method:

If the store owner loses 15%, then they keep the remaining 85% since 15%+85% = 100%.

85% of 330 = 280.50 dollars is the discount price

This means 330-280.50 = 49.50 dollars is the amount lost.

Answers

Answer:

x=24, y = 33/360 π×24^2/(sin^2(33° (degrees)))

Step-by-step explanation:

notice that x = MK = HM = 24.

Let the center of the circle be C.

Also, notice the radius of the circle can be expressed as the hypotenuse of HMC. Using some trig, we figure out that the radius is 24/sin(33 degrees).

Using the radius of the circle, we can figure out the circumference. The circumference is pi*r^2=(24/sin(33 degrees))^2*pi=pi*24^2/(sin(33 degrees)^2)

Lastly, notice that y = 33/360*circumference = 33/360 π×24^2/(sin^2(33° (degrees)))

Answers

Answer:

It is shifted left 5 units and up 2 units from the parent function.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

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

[tex]y' = \frac{1}{x+5} + 2[/tex]

Required

Compare both functions

First, translate y, 5 units left.

The rule is:

[tex](x,y) \to (x + 5,y)[/tex]

So, we have:

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

[tex]y_1 = \frac{1}{x + 5}[/tex]

Next, translate y1, 2 units up.

The rule is:

[tex](x,y) \to (x,y+2)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]y' = y_1 + 2[/tex]

[tex]y' = \frac{1}{x + 5} + 2[/tex]

Hence, the transformation is:

5 units left and 2 units up

The absolute value inequality equation |2x – 1| > 3 will have what type of solution set?

Answers

Given:

The inequality is:

[tex]|2x-1|>3[/tex]

To find:

The solution set for the given inequality.

Solution:

We know that, if [tex]|x|>a[/tex], then [tex]x<-a[/tex] and [tex]x>a[/tex].

We have,

[tex]|2x-1|>3[/tex]

It can be written as:

[tex]2x-1<-3[/tex] or [tex]2x-1>3[/tex]

Case I:

[tex]2x-1<-3[/tex]

[tex]2x<-3+1[/tex]

[tex]2x<-2[/tex]

[tex]x<\dfrac{-2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x<-1[/tex]

Case II:

[tex]2x-1>3[/tex]

[tex]2x>3+1[/tex]

[tex]2x>4[/tex]

[tex]x>\dfrac{4}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x>2[/tex]

The required solution for the given inequality is [tex]x<-1[/tex] or [tex]x>2[/tex]. The solution set in the interval notation is [tex](-\infty,-1)\cup (2,\infty)[/tex].

Therefore, the required solution set is [tex](-\infty,-1)\cup (2,\infty)[/tex].

Answers

We are given a system of equations,

This will translate into a 2x2 matrix of coefficients (because 2 equations and 2 unknowns),

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}-1&2\\0&1\\ \end{bmatrix}[/tex]

The matrix will then be applied to the vector (lower dimensions on top),

If two bags of popcorn and three drinks cost $14,
and four bags of popcorn and one drink costs
$18, how much does a drink cost?

Answers

Answer:

2dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

one bag of popcorn is 4 dollars so 4 bags of popcorn is 16 plus 1 drink which is 2 dollars equal 18.

The cost of each popcorn is $4 and the cost of each drink will be $2.

What is the solution to the equation?

The allocation of weights to the important variables that produce the calculation's optimum is referred to as a direct consequence.

If two bags of popcorn and three drinks cost $14, and four bags of popcorn and one drink costs $18.

Let the cost of each popcorn be 'x' and the cost of each drink be 'y'. Then the equations are given as,

2x + 3y = 14           ...1

4x + y = 18            ...2

From equations 1 and 2, then we have

2x + 3(18 - 4x) = 14

2x + 54 - 12x = 14

10x = 40

x = $4

Then the value of the variable 'y' is calculated as,

y = 18 - 4(4)

y = 18 - 16

y = $2

The cost of each popcorn is $4 and the cost of each drink will be $2.
