Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define equation

8b - 12 = 5b

Step 2: Solve for b

Subtract 5b on both sides:                    3b - 12 = 0Add 12 on both sides:                            3b = 12Divide 3 on both sides:                          b = 4

Step 3: Check

Plug in b to verify it's a solution.

Substitute:                  8(4) - 12 = 5(4)Multiply:                      32 - 12 = 20Subtract:                     20 = 20

Solve seven times three and one fifth.

A) twenty two and one fifths
B) twenty two and two fifths
C) twenty two and three fifths
D) twenty two and four fifths

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

3 1/5 x 7/1

(3 x 5) + 1 = 16/5

16/5 x 7/1 = 112/5.

112 ÷ 5 = 22 2/5

so its B.

Answer:

22 2/5, twenty two and two fifths, B.

Step-by-step explanation:

7 * 3 1/5

To make it simpler, convert 3 1/5 into a mixed number.

3 1/5 = 15/5 + 1/5 = 16/5

Now, it's 7 * 16/5

Next, to prevent confusion, convert 7 to a mixed fraction as well.

7 = 7/1 (also known as a rational number.)

now it's 7/1 * 16/5

Simply multiply 7 * 16 and 1 * 5, which results in

112/5

The answer is a mixed number, and you want to simplify it as much as possible,

112/5 is 5 going into 112 with it's highest factor.

5*22 is 110, which is the highest factor that can go into 112.

now 22 can be the whole number, and the remaining numbers in the part over whole fraction stays put. Basically, you subtract the numerator of the mixed number with the highest factor that the denominator can fit into the numerator. (112-110 = 2)

So, the answer is 22 2/5, B. (cannot be further simplified.)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Volume = 2000\ in^3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Dimension: 10in by 20in by 10in

Required

Determine the capacity of the aquarium

This question implies that, we calculate the volume of the prism and this is calculated by multiplying the dimensions of the aquarium. i.e.

[tex]Volume = Length * Width * Height[/tex]

Substitute values for the dimensions

[tex]Volume = 10 * 20 * 10[/tex]

[tex]Volume = 2000\ in^3[/tex]

Hence, the volume of the aquarium is 2000 cubic inches

A civic group is selling bumper stickers as a fundraiser. During the first week, they sold 500 bumper stickers. During the second week, they sold 50% more bumper stickers than the first week. During the third week, they sold 50% fewer bumper stickers than the second week.

Explain how you can use proportions to find the percent decrease from the first weeks' sales to the third weeks' sales. Your explanation must include the math you did to determine this. If you do not include the math and it make sense you will not get credit for this question.

Answers

Answer:

The third week they sold $375 in bumper stickers

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions and Percentages

During the first week, the civic group sold 500 bumper stickers as a fundraiser.

During the second week. they sold 50% more bumper stickers than the first week. First, we calculate the increment of 50% of 500:

50% 500 = 50 * 500 / 100 = 250

Thus the second week they sold:

500 + 250 = 750 bumper stickers

Now we know the third week they sold 50% fewer than the second week.

Again, we calculate the 50%, but this time on the basis of 750, and not 500 bumper stickers:

50% 750 = 50 * 750 / 100 = 375

Thus the third week they sold:

$750 - $375 = $375

The third week they sold $375 in bumper stickers

In tryouts for the olympics a speed skater had times of 44,64,43,45,42,79 and 4,228 seconds find the average time add numbers

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Average = 43.29[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Time: 44.64,43.45,42.79 and 42.28

Required

Determine the average time

Average or mean is calculated as thus;

[tex]Mean = \frac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]

Where

[tex]\sum x[/tex] = sum of observation

n = number of observation = 4

[tex]Average = \frac{44.64 + 43.45 + 42.79 + 42.28}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Average = \frac{173.16}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Average = 43.29[/tex]

What is the solution to 8x-3(2x-4)= 3(x-6
)

Answers

Answer:

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

8x - 3(2x - 4) = 3(x - 6)

Distribute te -3 on the left, and the 3 on the right

8x - 3(2x - 4) = 3(x - 6)

8x - 6x + 12 = 3x - 18

Simplify

8x - 6x + 12 = 3x - 18

2x + 12 = 3x - 18

Inverse operations

2x + 12 = 3x - 18

-2x          -2x

12 = x - 18

+18     +18

Answers

Answer:

The vector is [tex]\vec r = \left(\frac{6}{7},\frac{4}{7},-\frac{12}{7}\right)[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

We can determine the equivalent vector ([tex]\vec r[/tex]), dimensionless, by means of the following formula:

[tex]\vec r = \frac{\vec u}{\|\vec u\|} \cdot \|\vec r\|[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]\vec u[/tex] - Original vector, dimensionless.

[tex]\|\vec u\|[/tex] - Norm of the original vector, dimensionless.

[tex]\|\vec r\|[/tex] - Norm of the new vector, dimensionless.

The norm of the original vector is determined by the following definition:

[tex]\|\vec u\| = \sqrt{\vec u\,\bullet \,\vec u}[/tex] (2)

If we know that [tex]\vec u = (3, 2, -6)[/tex], then the norm of the original vector is:

[tex]\|\vec u\| = \sqrt{(3)\cdot (3)+(2)\cdot (2)+(-6)\cdot (-6)}[/tex]

[tex]\|\vec u\| = 7[/tex]

If we know that [tex]\|\vec r\| = 2[/tex], then the new vector is:

[tex]\vec r = \frac{2}{7}\cdot (3,2,-6)[/tex]

[tex]\vec r = \left(\frac{6}{7},\frac{4}{7},-\frac{12}{7}\right)[/tex]

The vector is [tex]\vec r = \left(\frac{6}{7},\frac{4}{7},-\frac{12}{7}\right)[/tex].

Before giving the solution let discuss what is the universal set, Union, and intersection:

A universal set (typically represented by U) is a collection that has items from all the sets, with no elements being repeated.It specifies in general as a set of all items to be considered.It describes all the elements or objects, including the elements, of other collections.The union of two sets is a collection with all A or B components (possibly both).The intersection denotes the resulting set between such two sets, which contains all the common items.

Following are the solution to the question:

In [tex]\bold{(A \cup B\cup C) \cap(A\cup B\cup C)}:[/tex]

Calculating:

[tex]\bold{(A \cup B\cup C) }= \bold{\{1,3,4,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20 \}}[/tex]

In this question, the "[tex](A \cup B\cup C)[/tex]" value is equal to "[tex]\bold{\{1,3,4,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20 \}}[/tex]" that is 18 elements.

When we intersecting both sets that is[tex]\bold{(A \cup B\cup C) \cap(A\cup B\cup C)}[/tex] so, its value will be the same that is:

The current of Cache Creek has speed 2 mph. It takes a small boat a total of 4 hours to travel 12 miles upstream and 12 miles back. Find the speed of the boat in still water. If your answer is not an integer, round it off to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

6.61 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of current; c = 2 mph

Total time to travel upstream and back; t = t1 + t2 = 4 hours

Let x represent speed of the boat in still water

Then the actual speed of the boat when going upstream is x - 2, and the actual speed when going downstream downstream is x + 2.

We know that; distance = speed x time, Thus;

For the upstream trip;

12 = (x - 2)t1

t1 = 12/(x - 2)

For the downstream trip;

12 = (x + 2)t2

t2 = 12/(x +2)

Adding both equations, we have;

t1 + t2 = (12/(x - 2)) + (12/(x +2))

4 = (12/(x - 2)) + (12/(x +2))

Multiply through by (x - 2)(x + 2)

4(x - 2)(x + 2) = 12(x + 2) + 12(x - 2)

4x²- 16 = 12x + 24 + 12x - 24

4x² - 16 = 24x

4x² - 24x - 16 = 0

Using quadratic formula, we have;

x ≈ 6.61 mph

Answers

Answer:

The value of k is 0.149.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

In 2004, an art collector paid $84,275,000 for a particular painting. The same painting sold for $27,000 in 1950. Complete part (a) through (d)? (a) Find exponential growth rate k, to three decimal places, and determine the exponential growth function V, for which V(t) is the painting’s value, in dollars, t years after 1950.

Solution:

The exponential growth function can be expressed as follows:

[tex]y=a\cdot e^{kt}[/tex]

y = Final value after t years

a = initial value

It is provided that:

y = $84,275,000

a = $27,000

The value of t from 1950 to 2004 is, t = 54

Compute the value of k as follows:

[tex]y=a\cdot e^{kt}[/tex]

[tex]84,275,000=27,000\times e^{54k}\\\\e^{54k}=\frac{84275000}{27000}\\\\54k=\ln (\frac{84275}{27})\\\\k=\frac{1}{54}\times \ln (\frac{84275}{27})\\\\k=0.149[/tex]

Thus, the value of k is 0.149.

Find the distance between C (-1,7) and D (-8,-3). Please provide a thorough explanation, thank you!

Answers

Answer:

[tex]d=\sqrt{149}\approx12.21[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance between any two points, we can use the distance formula:

[tex]d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2[/tex]

We have the two points (-1, 7) and (-8, -3).

Let (-1, 7) be (x₁, y₁) and let (-8, -3) be (x₂, y₂). Substitute:

[tex]d=\sqrt{(-8-(-1))^2+(-3-7)^2}[/tex]

Evaluate:

[tex]d=\sqrt{(-8+1)^2+(-10)^2}[/tex]

Evaluate:

[tex]d=\sqrt{(-7)^2+(-10)^2}[/tex]

Square:

[tex]d=\sqrt{49+100}[/tex]

Add:

[tex]d=\sqrt{149}\approx12.21[/tex]

This cannot be simplified. Hence, the distance between (-1, 7) and (-8, -3) is √(149) or approximately 12.21 units.

Mia, Jan, and Eva are sisters. Their combined ages are 44. Mia is 4 years older than Jan. Eva is 5 years younger than Jan. Which system of equations could be used to find Mia’s age?

Let x = Mia’s age, y=Jan’s age, and z=Eva’s age

Answers

Because of the question we know that Mia (x) is 4 years older (+ 4) than Jan (y) and Eva (z) is 5 years younger (- 5) than Jan:

x = y + 4
z = y - 5

Substitute:

x + y + z = 44
y + 4 + y + y - 5 = 44

Collect like terms:

3y + 4 - 5 = 44

Isolate 3y:

3y = 45

y = 15

Since we now know y (Jan’s age), we can find out Mia and Eva’s ages:

Mia: y + 14
= 15 + 4
Mia is 19 years old

Eva: y - 5
= 15 - 5
Eva is 10 years old

Proof:

x + y + z = 44
19 + 15 + 10 = 44
