Helen gathered 37 mushrooms in three hours. How many mushrooms did she gather every hour, if she gathered 7 more mushrooms in the second hour than in the first hour, and 6 more in the third hour than in the first hour?

Helen gathered
mushrooms in the first hour,
mushrooms in the second hour and
mushrooms in the third hour.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

On the first hour she gathered 8 mushroons, on the second 15 mushroons and on the third she gathered 14 mushroons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Helen gathred a total of 37 mushroons in three hours. On the first hour she gathered "x" mushroons, on the second hour she gathered "x + 7" mushroons and on the third hour she gathered "x + 6". Therefore the sum of mushrrons she gathered on each hour should be equal to the total she gathered as shown below:

37 = x + (x+ 7) + (x + 6)

37 = 3*x + 13

3*x + 13 = 37

3*x = 37 - 13

3*x = 24

x = 24 / 3

x = 8

On the first hour she gathered 8 mushroons, on the second 15 mushroons and on the third she gathered 14 mushroons.

Answer 2

Answer:

Helen gathered

8 mushrooms in the first hour,

15 mushrooms in the second hour and

14  mushrooms in the third hour.

A box contains 7 yellow, 5 blue, and 4 red balls. Three balls are drawn at random. Find the probability that:
a)
All three balls are the same color
c)
Two balls are yellow and one is blue
d)
All three balls are different colors

Answers

Answer:

a) 7/80 = 0.0875

b) 3/16 = 0.1875

c) 1/4 = 0.2500

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 16 balls.  3 are selected.  There are ₁₆C₃ possible combinations.

a) If all 3 balls are the same color, they are either all yellow OR all blue OR all red.

The number of ways of choosing 3 yellow balls from 7 is ₇C₃.

The number of ways of choosing 3 blue balls from 5 is ₅C₃.

The number of ways of choosing 3 red balls from 4 is ₄C₃.

The total probability is:

P = (₇C₃ + ₅C₃ + ₄C₃) / ₁₆C₃

P = (35 + 10 + 4) / 560

P = 49 / 560

P = 7 / 80

P = 0.0875

b) The number of ways of choosing 2 yellow balls from 7 is ₇C₂.

The number of ways of choosing 1 blue ball from 5 is ₅C₁.

The probability of both is:

P = ₇C₂ ₅C₁ / ₁₆C₃

P = 21 × 5 / 560

P = 105 / 560

P = 3 / 16

P = 0.1875

c) If all 3 balls are different colors, then there is exactly 1 yellow, 1 blue, and 1 red.

The number of ways of choosing 1 yellow ball from 7 is ₇C₁.

The number of ways of choosing 1 blue ball from 5 is ₅C₁.

The number of ways of choosing 1 red ball from 4 is ₄C₁.

The probability of all events is:

P = ₇C₁ ₅C₁ ₄C₁ / ₁₆C₃

P = 7 × 5 × 4 / 560

P = 140 / 560

P = 1 / 4

P = 0.2500

Number of students 10

Problem 1. $625 for the bus hire per friday, So 625*4=$2500

Problem 2. 2500/25=$100 each for the whole 4 weeks

Problem 3.

10 students tickets 220= 2200 for all tickets. The bus, 625/10 = $62.5*4= $250 dollars for the whole 4 weeks for the bus so in all each student pays $470 each

20 students, tickets 220=4400 for all tickets. The bus, 625/20=$31.25*4=$125 for the whole 4 weeks for the bus, so in all each student must pay $345 each

30 students, tickets 220 = 6600 for all tickets. The bus, 625/30 =$20.83*4=$83.32 for the whole 4 weeks for the bus, so in all each student must pay $303.32 each

41 students, tickets $160=$6560 for all tickets. The bus, because you need 2 buses at 625 each so $1250 for both buses 1250/41= 30.49*4=$121.96 for the whole 4 weeks for the bus. So in al each student must pay $281.96 each

Express x^2-5x+8 in the form (x-a)^2+b

Answers

Answer:

x^2 - 5x + 8 = (x - 5/2)^2 + 7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - a)^2 + b = x^2 - 2ax + a^2 + b

equate to your quadratic :

x^2 - 5x + 8 = x^2 - 2ax + (a^2 + b)

equating coefficients (ignoring x^2 as the coefficient is 1 for both)

for x :

-5 = -2a --> a = 5/2

for x^(0) : 8 = a^2 + b , note a = 5/2

thus,

8 = (5/2)^2 + b

8 = 25/4 + b

b = 8 - 25/4 = 32/4 - 25/4 = (32 - 25)/4 = 7/4

hence a = 5/2 , b = 7/4

thus,

x^2 - 5x + 8 = (x - 5/2)^2 + 7/4

the button on ernestos shirt has a diameter of 8 millimeters.what is the buttons radius

Answers

Answer:

4 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius is half the diameter, so in this case the radius of each button is 4 mm.

Answer:

The radius would be 4 millimetres

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius is the length from one side to the centre of the circle.

The diameter is the length from one side to another.

To work out the radius you would simply divide the diameter of 8 by 2, this gives you 4 millimetres. This is because the radius is half of the diameter.

1) Divide 8 by 2.

[tex]8/2=4 mm[/tex]

Find the probability that a point in the figure chosen at random is in the
shaded kite. *Remember, the are of a kite is found by one half of diagonal
1 times diagonal 2. *
A)1/3
B)1/4
C)3/4
D)1/2

Answers

Answer:

Correct option: D) 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the area of the kite and the area of the rectangle.

The diagonals of the kite are 16 and 12, as they are parallel to the sides of the rectangle.

So the area of the kite is A1 = (1/2) * 16 * 12 = 96

The area of the rectagle is the product of the sides, so A2 = 16 * 12 = 192

Now, to find the probability of a random point being inside the kite, we just need to divide the area of the kite by the area of the rectangle:

Probability = A1 / A2 = 96 / 192 = 1/2

Correct option: D)

A diver dives from the board at a local swimming pool. Her height, y, in metres, above the water in terms of her horizontal distance, x, in metres, from the end of the board is given by y= -x^2 + 2x + 3. What is the diver's maximum height?

Answers

Answer:

4 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a quadratic equation in which the coefficient of [tex]x^2[/tex] is negative, the parabola opens up and has a maximum point. This maximum point occurs at the line of symmetry.

Since the divers height, y is modeled by the equation

[tex]y= -x^2 + 2x + 3[/tex]

Step 1: Determine the equation of symmetry

In the equation above, a=-1, b=2, c=3

Equation of symmetry, [tex]x=-\dfrac{b}{2a}[/tex]

[tex]x=-\dfrac{2}{2*-1}\\x=1[/tex]

Step 2: Find the value of y at the point of symmetry

That is, we substitute x obtained above into the y and solve.

[tex]y(1)= -1^2 + 2(1) + 3=-1+2+3=4m[/tex]

The maximum height of the diver is therefore 4 meters.

2. Write a quadratic function with zeros at 6 and -2.
