Ivan caught a total of 7 2/5 pounds of fish one day. Of the fish caught, 4 5/8 pounds were sea bass and the rest were mackerel. He gave away 1 7/8 pounds of mackerel. How many pounds of mackerel did he have left.

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

Total fish (Sea bass and mackerel) = [tex]7\dfrac{2}{5}[/tex] pounds

Sea bass = [tex]4\dfrac{5}{8}[/tex] pounds

He gave away [tex]1\dfrac{7}{8}[/tex] pounds of mackerel.

To find:

The remaining mackerel.

Solution:

We know that,

Mackerel = Total fish - Sea bass

[tex]\text{Mackerel}=7\dfrac{2}{5}-4\dfrac{5}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Mackerel}=\dfrac{37}{5}-\dfrac{37}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Mackerel}=\dfrac{296-185}{40}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Mackerel}=\dfrac{111}{40}[/tex]

He gave away [tex]1\dfrac{7}{8}[/tex] pounds of mackerel. So, the remaining mackerel is:

[tex]\text{Remaining Mackerel}=\dfrac{111}{40}-1\dfrac{7}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Remaining Mackerel}=\dfrac{111}{40}-\dfrac{15}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Remaining Mackerel}=\dfrac{111-75}{40}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Remaining Mackerel}=\dfrac{36}{40}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Remaining Mackerel}=\dfrac{9}{10}[/tex]

Therefore, the remaining Mackerel is [tex]\dfrac{9}{10}[/tex] pounds or 0.9 pounds.

Answer 2

Answer:

The amount of Mackerel left is 9/10.

Step-by-step explanation:

total fish = 7 2/5 pounds

sea bass = 4 5/8

The amount of mackerel =

[tex]7\frac{2}{5}-4\frac{5}{8}\\\\=\frac{37}{5}-\frac{37}{8}\\\\=\frac{296-185}{40}\\\\=2 \frac{31}{40}[/tex]

Mackerel left =

[tex]2 \frac{31}{40}-1\frac{7}{8}\\\\= \frac{111}{40}-\frac{15}{8}\\\\=\frac{111-75}{40}\\\\=\frac{36}{40}\\\\=\frac{9}{10}[/tex]

The time it takes me to wash the dishes is uniformly distributed between 8 minutes and 17 minutes.

What is the probability that washing dishes tonight will take me between 14 and 16 minutes?

Give your answer accurate to two decimal places.

Answers

The time it takes to wash has the probability density function,

[tex]P(X=x) = \begin{cases}\frac1{17-8}=\frac19&\text{for }8\le x\le 17\\0&\text{otherewise}\end{cases}[/tex]

The probability that it takes between 14 and 16 minutes to wash the dishes is given by the integral,

[tex]\displaystyle\int_{14}^{16}P(X=x)\,\mathrm dx = \frac19\int_{14}^{16}\mathrm dx = \frac{16-14}9 = \frac29 \approx \boxed{0.22}[/tex]

If you're not familiar with calculus, the probability is equal to the area under the graph of P(X = x), which is a rectangle with height 1/9 and length 16 - 14 = 2, so the area and hence probability is 2/9 ≈ 0.22.

Richard is asked to spray wash the exterior of a building that is shaped like a cube. The building has a side length of 7 meters. How much surface area will Richard have to clean?
7 meters squared.
245 meters squared.
49 meters squared.
294 meters squared.

Answers

Answer:

294 meters squared

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of cube is calculated using the formula :

Surface area of cube = 6a²; where a = side length of the cube

The side length of the cube, a = 7 meters

Hence,

Surface area = 6 * 7² = 6 * 49

Surfave area of cube = 294 meters

Answer:

245 meters squared (correct on my test)

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, in this case, we complete the formula and then subtract the area of the base. Therefore, we take 6 x (7 meters)^2 and subtract (7 meters)^2. This can also be represented as 5 x (7 meters)^2.

What is a rotation in a transformation ?

A rotational transformation can be done clockwise or anticlockwise to certain number of degrees. Rotational transformation does not alter the size and shape of the figure.

Rotating (4,-1) 90° anticlockwise centred at the origin yields the point (1, 4).

Then transforming the point (1, 4) two units to the right and 1 unit up results in the point (3, 5).

We can also rotate 90° clockwise that would result in some different point on this coordinate system.

The graph of a function is given.

To find:

The point that is the relative maxima on the interval x = –1 and x = 2 in the graph.

Solution:

Relative maxima: It is the maximum point of a function over a short interval.

From the given graph it is clear that the graph of the function over the interval x = –1 and x = 2 has a relative maxima at (0,0).

Clearly, (0,0) is represented by point a.

So, the point a is the relative maxima on the interval x = –1 and x = 2 in the graph.

Using traditional methods it takes 92 hours to receive an advanced flying license. A new training technique using Computer Aided Instruction (CAI) has been proposed.

Is there evidence at the 0.05 level that the technique lengthens the training time?
Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The value of the test statistic is z = 1.39.

The p-value of the test is 0.0823 > 0.05, which means that there is not evidence at the 0.05 level that the technique lengthens the training time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using traditional methods it takes 92 hours to receive an advanced flying license.

This means that at the null hypothesis, it is tested if the mean is of 92, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu = 92[/tex]

Test if there is evidence that the technique lengthens the training time

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the mean is more than 92, that is:

[tex]H_1: \mu > 92[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

92 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 92[/tex]

A researcher used the technique on 70 students and observed that they had a mean of 93 hours. Assume the population variance is known to be 36.

This means that [tex]n = 70, X = 93, \sigma = \sqrt{36} = 6[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{93 - 92}{\frac{6}{\sqrt{70}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = 1.39[/tex]

The value of the test statistic is z = 1.39.

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample mean above 93, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of z = 1.39.

Looking at the z-table, z = 1.39 has a p-value of 0.9177.

1 - 0.9177 = 0.0823.

The p-value of the test is 0.0823 > 0.05, which means that there is not evidence at the 0.05 level that the technique lengthens the training time.

Answers

Answer:

62.5 square miles

Step-by-step explanation:

if the scale is 1 in. = 5 mi, then 1 square in. = 25 square miles

so if 1 in^2 = 25 mi^2

then you make a proportion

25/1 = x/2.5

(the square inches on the bottom and the square miles on top)

solving for x gives you

4 football is kicked with a speed of 18.0 m/s at an angle of 36.9to the horizontal. 8. How long is the football in the air? Neglect air resistance. A ) 1.1 s B C ) 2.2 D) 3.3 E) 4.0

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  C)  2.2 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial vertical speed of the football is ...

  v = (18.0 m/s)sin(36.9°) ≈ 10.807 m/s

Since the ball starts and ends at ground level, its speed when it hits the ground is the same as its launch speed. That is, the acceleration due to gravity causes the velocity to change from +v to -v. The time required to do that is ...

  t = 2v/g = 2(10.807 m/s)/(9.8 m/s^2) = 21.614/9.8 s ≈ 2.206 s

The football is in the air about 2.2 seconds.

Let the two equal angles each be x

Let the third angle be x + 48

Then ATQ
