1. Bill decided to buy six books on history instead

of four books on politics. It follows, then, that

the opportunity cost of each history book was ______

books on politics.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 2/3 books on politics

Step-by-step explanation:

The opportunity cost of something is the next best alternative that you would have taken if you did not instead go for the option that you took.

Opportunity cost here is the number of books on politics that Bill had to give up to get a single book on history.

= Number of politics books / Number of history  books

= 4 / 6

= 2/3 books on politics

Bill gave up 2/3 books on politics to get a single history book.

One angle of a right triangle measures 34°. What is the measure of the other acute angle?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: one has to be 90 degrees, so 34 plus 90. The angles of a triangle always add up to 180 so, subtract the answer of 34 plus 90 from 80 and you should get the answer.

quintic polynomial

Step-by-step explanation:

it depends on the degree and the degree is at 5 so its quintic quin means 5

Answer:

It is a Quintic Polynomial

Step-by-step explanation:

When classifying polynomials, there is usually a list that you should get that makes classifying easier.

I put the list down below.

In order to find if it is constant (0), linear (1), quadratic (2), cubic (3), quartic (4), or quintic (5), look at the exponent with the highest value (0 through 5), and it will give you the name. So in the equation, you have above, the highest exponent is 5. So this is a quintic.  

In order to find the next part of the expression, monomial, binomial, trinomial, and polynomial, look at how many terms there are in the expression. There are 4 terms, so this a polynomial.

What is the value of 6x+7y−5 when x = 2 and y = 3?

Answers

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

6(2) + 7(3) - 5

12 + 21 -5

It's a good idea to get into the habit of using parenthses

when substituting numbers in for variables.

Since x = 2 and y = 3, 6x + 7y - 5 is 6(2) + 7(3) - 5.

Simplifying from here, we get 12 + 21 - 5 or 33 - 5 which is 28.

Directions: Rewrite each expression in simplest form. Remember: no radicals in the denominator.



Answers

For the first 3 you just have to divide (forget about the square root for now) and then reduce its result by finding two numbers (one of them have to be able to be squared rotted) that multiplied gives the fist result. Then you just have to square root one of the numbers and leave the other one as it is.

For the last 4; you cannot have radicals in the denominator, so you have to multiply both top and bottom by the square root, after that you just reduce.

Hope you understand, if you have any questions please let me know.

Symbol... X... Negative y, , , , ,

Answers

Answer:

D. (x, y) → (x, −y)

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are reflection, translation, rotation and dilation.

The orientation shows how an object is arranged. Rotation, translation and dilation preserves orientation while reflection does not preserve orientation.

The transformation (x, y) → (4x, 4y) shows the dilation by a scale factor of 4. Dilation preserve orientation.

The transformation (x, y) → (−y, x) shows the rotation of a point 90 degrees counterclockwise. Rotation preserve orientation.

The transformation (x, y) → (14x, 14y) shows the dilation by a scale factor of 14. Dilation preserve orientation.

The transformation (x, y) → (x, −y) shows a reflection over the x axis. Reflection does not preserve orientation.

70 of the rooms in a hotel are full if the hotel is 87.5% full then how many total rooms are there at this hotel

Answers

Answer:

80 rooms

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 70 of the rooms in a hotel are full such that the hotel is 87.5% full.

To find: total number of rooms in the hotel

Solution:

Number of filled rooms [tex]=70[/tex]

Percentage if filled rooms [tex]=87.5\%[/tex]

Let [tex]x[/tex] denotes total number of rooms.

Therefore,

[tex]\frac{87.5}{100}x=70\\\\x= 70(\frac{100}{87.5} )\\\\x=80[/tex]

So, there are [tex]80[/tex] rooms in the hotel.

Answer is C) which is 2 units right and 3 units up since it it positive it goes up and right.

What is transformation?

Transformations are changes done in the shapes on a coordinate plane by rotation, reflection or translation.

here, we have,

Given the rule of transformation:

(x, y) → (x+2, y+3)

If we move horizontally 2 units to the right, 2 is added to the x-coordinate of any given point, and then 3 units up.

In other words,

(x, y) → (x+2, y+3) means Translation 2 units right and 3 units up.

For example,

Let say if we have the point A(4, 5)

Using the translation rule:

(x, y) → (x+2, y+3)

A(4, 5) → A'(4 + 2, 5 + 3) → A'(6, 8)

Therefore, the new position of A(4, 5) after translating 3 units right and 2 units up would be: A'(6,8).

Hence, (x, y) → (x+2, y+3) means a translation 2 units to the right and 3 units up.

the meal before the discount, what is the total cost of the meal? Round your intermediate
calculations and answer to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer: $80.44

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, find 20% of 78.86, which is approximately 15.77.

Then, add it to the cost of the meal.

Finally, discount 15% of 94.63, which is approximately $14.19, and then subtract it from $94.63, and there's your answer.

Avery walked for 0.25 miles in 5 minutes. Then she stopped for 5 minutes to meet her friend.After that both of them walked 0.75 miles in 15 minutes.

Again this option is also correct.

Avery walked for  5 minutes at a pace of 20 minutes per mile. Then she stopped for 5 minutes to meet her friend.After that both of them walked for 15 minutes at a pace of 20 minutes per mile.

Because, Time taken to travel 1 mile is 20 minutes.

So, time taken to travel 0.25 miles = 20 * 0.25 = 5 minutes

Time taken to travel 0.75 miles = 20 * 0.75 = 15 minutes

Complete question :

Scottie is standing next to a lighthouse on the edge of a cliff overlooking the ocean. The cliff is 30 meters above

sea level, and the lighthouse has a height of 15 meters. There is a man fishing in a boat directly below Scottie who

has hooked a fish that is 10 meters below the surface of the water.

a. Use positive and negative numbers to represent the locations in relation to sea level.

Scottie =

Top of the lighthouse =

The boat =

The fish =

meters

b. How far is Scottie from the fish?

Answer:

30 m ;

15 m ;

0 m;

40 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Scottie's position = standing on cliff

Height of cliff = 30 m above sea level

Height of lighthouse = 15 meters

Position of fish = 10m below sea level

Above sea level = positive, +

Below sea level = negative, -

Scottie's position = 30 m

Top of lighthouse = 15m

BOAT = surface of sea = 0m

Fish = - 10 m

Distance of Scottie from fish :

Scottie's position - Position of fish

30m - (-10)m

30m + 10m

= 40m
