Write the interval-25 < x < 30
using set notation and interval
notation.

Answers

Answer:

Set notation: { x ∈ ℝ | -25 < x < 30 }

Interval notation: (-25, 30)

Step-by-step explanation:

In set notation,

"x ∈ ℝ" means "x is an element of all real numbers"

you then write the restrictions after that, which would be "-25 < x < 30"

this gives you { x ∈ ℝ | -25 < x < 30 },

"x is an element of all real numbers, such that x is larger than -25 and less than 30"

In interval notation, it is written as (-25, 30). The parentheses mean that the interval does not include the numbers -25 or 30.

If the interval does include those numbers, i.e. if it was "-25 ≤ x ≤ 30" instead of "-25 < x < 30" you would use brackets instead of parentheses,

giving you {-25, 30}.

I NEED HELP, I'VE BEEN STUCK ON THIS...Find the volume of this triangular prism. Enter only the numerical part of your answer in square units.

Answers

Answer:

[see below]

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a triangular prism is: [tex]V=\frac{1}{2}bhl[/tex]

We are given the base of 5, the length of 12, and the height of 8. All measurements are in meters.

[tex]V=\frac{1}{2}(5*12*8)\\\\V=\frac{1}{2}(480)\\\\V=240[/tex]

The volume of the prism should be 240 square meters.

Answer:

V = 240 m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a triangular prism is

V = Bh  where B is the area of the base and h is the height

B = the area of the triangular base

B = 1/2 bh

B = 1/2 *5*12

B = 30 m^2

The volume is

V = 30 * 8

V = 240 m^3

Micheal recorded the number of points his team scored for the first seven basketball games, 64,58,60,52,56,62,54 Which box plot correctly represents the data?

Answers

Answer:

The correct box plot is B  (Bottom left)

Step-by-step explanation:

I have attached the appropriate picture containing the box plots to this answer. In order to choose the most appropriate box plot, we have to find the median of the distribution and locate the box plot showing the correct median. This is done as follows:

To find the median, we will first arrange the distribution in ascending (or descending) order

Median = 52, 54, 56, 58, 60, 62, 64

Next, we will group the data into two halves, and choose the middle term, which is 58. this becomes the median.

From the diagram, box plots, A, B and C have their median as 58, in order to determine the correct plot, we will find the medians to the lower and upper halves of the distribution. This is done as follows:

Lower half: 52, 54, 56, 58

Median of lower half = (54 + 56) ÷ 2 = 55

upper half = 58, 60, 62, 64

Median of upper half = (60 + 62) ÷ 2 = 61

From the picture the plot with these three medians from lower half to upper half (55, 58, 61) is plot B (bottom left)

Note the medians are the lines that form the boundaries and at the middle of the box.

Answer:

The answer is B bottom left :

10 People fit comfortably in a 5 feet by 5 feet area. Use this value to estimate the size of a crowd that is 5 feet deep on both sides of the street along a 2-mile section of a parade route.

Answers

Answer:

The size of the crowd that is 5 feet deep on both sides of the street along a 2-mile section of a parade route is 42,240 people

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of people that can fit comfortably in a 5 feet by 5 feet area = 10

Therefore;

The ratio of the number of people per unit area = 10/(5 × 5) = 10/25

The area, A, occupied by the crowd = 5 feet × 2 mile × 2

2 miles = 10,560 feet

∴ A = 5 feet × 10,560 feet × 2 = 105,600 ft²

We then have;

[tex]\dfrac{Number \ of \ people}{105,600} =\dfrac{10}{25}[/tex]

[tex]Number \ of \ people = {105,600} \times \dfrac{10}{25} = 42,240 \ people[/tex]

The length of a rectangle is 3cm longer than its width.If the perimeter of the rectangle is 54cm,find its length in cm.​

Answers

Answer:

length = 15 cm

Width = 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let width = w cm

Length = w + 3

Perimeter of rectangle = 54 cm

2 * (length + width) = 54

2 * (w+3 + w) = 54   {Add like terms}

2 *(2w + 3) = 54

2*2w + 2 * 3 = 54

4w + 6   = 54

Subtract 6 form both sides

4w = 54 - 6

4w = 48

Divide both sides by 4

w = 48/4

w = 12 cm

Length = 12 + 3= 15 cm

Answer:

Length = 15cm

Step-by-step explanation:

let width be x

length = x+3

Perimeter = 2(l + b)

Perimeter = 54cm

equating:

2(x + x + 3) = 54

2(2x +3) = 54

4x + 6 = 54

4x = 54 - 6

4x = 48

x = 48/4 = 12

width = x = 12cm

length = x +3 = 12 + 3 = 15cm

To find:

The solution to the system of equations = ?

Solution:

Explain the Golden Rule for solving equations using an example. NEED HELP QUICK

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The golden rule for solving equations is to

A. Simplify each side of the equation by removing parentheses and combining like terms

B. Add/Subtract to isolate the term with the variable on one side

C. Use multiplication/division to isolate the variable

Let's assume we have the equation [tex]2x + 3x + (5\cdot2) = 35[/tex]

The first thing we need to do is solve inside the parentheses and combine like terms. 2x and 3x are like terms, so:

[tex]2x + 3x + 10 = 35\\\\5x + 10 = 35[/tex]

Now we have to subtract/add to isolate the term with the variable. To do this, we can subtract 10 from both sides.

[tex]5x + 10 - 10 = 35-10\\\\5x = 25[/tex]

Now we divide to isolate x.

[tex]5x \div 5 = 25\div5\\\\x = 5[/tex]

Answer: 1 and 5/7

Step-by-step explanation: To write an improper fraction as a mixed number,

divide the denominator into the numerator.

So here, we have 7 divided into 12.

7 divides into 12 one time, 1 × 7 is 7, and 12 - 7 is 5.

So 7 divides into 12 one time with a remainder of 5.

So we have 1 whole and 5 out of 7 parts or 1 and 5/7.

So the improper fraction 12/7 can be written

as the mixed number 1 and 5/7.

The probability of a middle school student owning a skateboard is 0.58, of owning a bicycle is 0.48 and of owning both is 0.45. If a middle school student is chosen at random, what is the probability that the middle school student owns a skateboard or a bicycle?

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the middle school student owns a skateboard or a bicycle is 0.61.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the probability of a middle school student owning a skateboard is 0.58, of owning a bicycle is 0.48, and owning both is 0.45.

A middle school student is chosen at random.

Let the probability of student owning a skateboard = P(S) = 0.58

The probability of student owning a bicycle = P(B) = 0.48

The probability of student owning both = P(S [tex]\bigcap[/tex] B) = 0.45

Now, the probability that the middle school student owns a skateboard or a bicycle is given by = P(S [tex]\bigcup[/tex] B)

        P(S [tex]\bigcup[/tex] B) = P(S) + P(B) - P(S [tex]\bigcap[/tex] B)

                      = 0.58 + 0.48 - 0.45

                      = 0.61

Hence, the probability that the middle school student owns a skateboard or a bicycle is 0.61.
