Jordan and Beth are mixing yellow and blue paint to make green paint.
They are both using the same shades of yellow and blue paint.
A green paint made with a higher proportion of blue produces a darker green
Jordan mixes the yellow and blue paint in the ratio of 5:2.
Beth mixes the yellow and blue paint in the ratio of 18:7.
Who has the darker green paint?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Jordan

Step-by-step explanation:

Jordan 5:2 -> 10:4, 15:6   20:8  25:10  50:20  60:24  70:28

Beth  18:7->  36:14  54:21  72:28

When Both of them add 28 of BLUE paint, Jordan adds only 70 yellow paint, while Beth uses 72 yellow paint. This would make Jordan's green darker.

Alvin wants to know what his average paddling rate was for a canoe trip to a campsite. On the way there it took him 10 hours against a river current of 3 km/ hr. On the way back, the same distance took him 5 hours with the same 3 km/hr current.

Answers

The paddling rate of Alvin is 9km/hr

Given time against the  river current is 10 hours , speed is 3km/hr

and time with the river current given is 5 hours and the speed is 3km/hr

We need to calculate the paddling rate of Alvin

Let us assume that

r =Alvin's average paddling rate in km/hour

y = speed of the current in km/hour

we know that

speed= distance/time

distance=speed*time

Now,

To Campsite against the current

Speed=(r-y)

Speed=(r-3) ---- (1)

Time=8 hours

Distance=(r-3)*10------ (2)

10r - 30

From Campsite with the current

Speed=(r+y)

Speed=(r+3)*5

Time=3 hours

Distance=(r+3)*5----(1)

Equate equation 1 and equation 2

5r +15

because is the same distance

5r + 15 = 10r - 30

5r = 45

r = 9

Hence ,The rate of the paddling rate is 9km/hr

a display at an aquarium has sea stars to wolf eels in a ratio 4 : 5. It also has 5/8 as many rockfish as sea stars. there are 40 more wolf eels than rock fish. How many sea stars are there?

Answers

The number of sea stars is 64.

What is a ratio?

Comparing two amounts of the same units and determining the ratio tells us how much of one quantity is in the other.

In general, a: b, which can be interpreted as "a is to b," is used to denote a ratio between two quantities, let's say "a" and "b."

This ratio is expressed in fraction form as a/b. We utilize the same method for further simplifying a ratio as we use for further simplifying a fraction.

According to the question,

Ratio of sea stars to wolf eels = 4:5

Number of rock fish= 5/8 (Number of sea stars)

Number of wolf eels - Number of rock fish = 40

Using the given information, we get,

Number of sea stars = 8/5 (Number of rock fish)

On simplification,

Number of wolf eels = 80

So, number of sea stars = (4/5)*80

                                          = 64

General admission tickets to a play cost $18 each. Reserved seats cost $22 each. There were 20 reserved seats sold. There were 28 more general admission tickets sold than reserved seats. How much money was paid for all of the tickets put together? Complete the chart and answer the question:​

Answers

Answer:

$22 * (20) + $18 * (48) = $1304

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 20 reserved seats so it would be: $22 * 20 = $440 for all reserved seats

There are 28 general admission tickets more than reserved seats ticket so number of general admission tickets is: 20 + 28 = 48 (tickets)

Approximately how many years will it take for the world’s population to increase to 8,252,000,000 people? Since there will be the original 100% plus an additional 2% each year, the base in the exponential equation is 1.02. Use the equation 8252=(6080)(1.02)x, where x is the number of years. Round to the nearest year.

Answers

The number of years it will take for the world’s population to increase to 8,252,000,000 people is 16

How to determine the number of years?

This implies that we calculate the value of x

The equation is given as:

8252=(6080)(1.02)^x

Divide both sides by 6080

1.36 = (1.02)^x

Take the logarithm of both sides

log(1.36) = x * log(1.02)

Divide both sides log(1.02)

x = log(1.36)/log(1.02)

Evaluate the quotient

x = 16

If np>5 and nq>5, estimate P (at least 10) with n=13 and p=0.5 by using the normal distribution as approximation for the binomial distribution, if np, or nq,5, then state that the normal approximation is not suitable.

Answers

Using the normal distribution, the probability is given as follows:

[tex]P(X \geq 10) = 0.0485[/tex].

Normal Probability Distribution

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean. Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.The binomial distribution is the probability of x successes on n trials, with p probability of a success on each trial. It can be approximated to the normal distribution with [tex]\mu = np, \sigma = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex].

The parameters for the binomial distribution are:

p = 0.5, n = 13.

Hence the mean and the standard deviation are:

[tex]\mu = np = 13 \times 0.5 = 6.5[/tex].[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{13 \times 0.5 \times 0.5} = 1.8028[/tex]

Using continuity correction, the desired probability is P(X > 9.5), which is one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 9.5, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{9.5 - 6.5}{1.8028}[/tex]

Z = 1.66

Z = 1.66 has a p-value of 0.9515.

1 - 0.9515 = 0.0485, then:

is the cost function and
p(x) = 1600 − 8x
is the demand function, find the production level that will maximize profit. (Hint: If the profit is maximized, then the marginal revenue equals the marginal cost.)

Answers

Since profit can't be negative, the production level that'll maximize profit is approximately equal to 220.

How to find the production level that'll maximize profit?

The cost function, C(x) is given by 12000 + 400x − 2.6x² + 0.004x³ while the demand function, P(x) is given by 1600 − 8x.

Next, we would differentiate the cost function, C(x) to derive the marginal cost:

C(x) = 12000 + 400x − 2.6x² + 0.004x³

C'(x) = 400 − 5.2x + 0.012x².

Also, revenue, R(x) = x × P(x)

Revenue, R(x) = x(1600 − 8x)

Revenue, R(x) = 1600x − 8x²

Next, we would differentiate the revenue function to derive the marginal revenue:

R'(x) = 1600 - 8x

At maximum profit, the marginal revenue is equal to the marginal cost:

1600 - 8x = 400 − 5.2x + 0.012x

1600 - 8x - 400 + 5.2x - 0.012x² = 0

1200 - 2.8x - 0.012x² = 0

0.012x² + 2.8x - 1200 = 0

Solving by using the quadratic equation, we have:

x = 220.40 or x = -453.73.

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS ONE QUESTION How many kilograms of water at 100. 0C can be vaporized if 1278900 J of heat are added to the water? (Lv = 2. 26 x 106 J/kg) 1. Given an undirected graph with positive edge weights, a source s, and a sink t, find the shortest path from s to t and back to s that uses each edge at most once. Aim for O(E log V) time, although O(EV) time will get most of the credit. Hints: Look for an "augmenting path," inspired by Ford-Fulkerson but slightly different. And to get the desired runtime, you may need to use a potential function. The question about violence in the United States is tricky. Many students get it wrong because they go with their common- sense assumptions. Sociological research allows us to find answers to controversial questions, and the answers are not always what we think they will be. As a sociology student, you will learn to question basic assumptions that people usually take for granted.
