Monica needs to gain 10 pounds in order to be able to donate blood. She gained 5/6 pound the first week, 3/4 pound each of the next two weeks, 3/4 pound the fourth week, and lost 3/8 pound the fifth week. How many more pounds does she still have to gain?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: [tex]7\dfrac{7}{24}\text{ pounds}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, Monica gained weight in first week = [tex]\dfrac{5}{6}[/tex] pounds

She gained weight in second week = [tex]\dfrac34[/tex] pounds

She gained weight in third week = [tex]\dfrac34[/tex] pounds

She gained weight in fourth week = [tex]\dfrac34[/tex] pounds

She lost weight in fifth week = [tex]\dfrac38[/tex] pounds

Now, net weight she gained= [tex]\dfrac{5}{6}+\dfrac34+\dfrac34+\dfrac34-\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{20+18+18+18-9}{24}\\\\=\dfrac{65}{24}\\\\=2\dfrac{17}{65}\text{ pounds}[/tex]

She need to gain [tex]10-\dfrac{65}{24}=\dfrac{240-65}{24}=7\dfrac{7}{24}\text{ pounds}[/tex]

Hence, she still have to gain [tex]7\dfrac{7}{24}\text{ pounds}[/tex]more.

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.

Y = A system of equations. Y equals StartFraction one-half EndFraction x minus 6. X equals negative 4.X – 6 x = –4 What is the solution to the system of equations?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x = -4, y =-8[/tex] is the solution to the system of equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations as:

[tex]y= \dfrac{1}{2}x-6[/tex]

and

[tex]x =-4[/tex]

To find:

The solution to the system of equations = ?

Solution:

Here, we are given two equations and two variables i.e. [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]y[/tex].

So, we can solve the system of equations for the values of [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]y[/tex].

Let us first consider the 2nd equation.

[tex]x =-4[/tex] we already have the value of [tex]x[/tex].

Now, let us put the value of [tex]x[/tex] in the 1st equation to find the value of [tex]y[/tex].

[tex]y= \dfrac{1}{2}x-6[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow y= \dfrac{1}{2}\times (-4)-6\\\Rightarrow y= -\dfrac{1}{2}\times 4-6\\\Rightarrow y= -2-6\\\Rightarrow \bold{y =-8}[/tex]

So,  the solution to the system of equations is:

[tex]x = -4, y =-8[/tex]

Answer:

1 5/7

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{12}{7} \\= 12\div 7 = 1\: remainder\: 5\\\\= 1 \frac{5}{7}[/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.

You buy six T-bone steaks that cost $15.99 per pound. The weight that is listed on the package is 5.77 pounds. The scale that weighed the package is accurate to within 1 32 pound. How much per kilogram might you be undercharged or overcharged? (Round to the nearest cent.)

Answers

Answer:

Amount per kilogram, undercharged or overcharged is 0.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

cost of T-bone steaks per pound = $ 15.99

weight listed on package = 5.77 lb

Accuracy of the scale = 1/32 lb

To find:

Amount undercharged or overcharged

Solution:

Let x represent the weight of the package.

Then compute the error in the weight

| x - 5.77 | < 1 / 32

This makes an absolute value inequality

If an inequality is given in the form | x | < a then solution is in the form:

–a < x < a.

If an inequality is in the form | x | > a, then solution splits in the form:

x < –a or x > a.

compute the amount undercharged or overcharged:

First multiply the above inequality by cost of T-bone steaks per pound

15.99 |x - 5.77| < 15.99 (1 / 32)

15.99 |x - 5.77| < 15.99(0.03125)

15.99 |x - 5.77| < 0.4996875

15.99 |x - 5.77| < 0.50

Hence the amount undercharged or overcharged is $0.50

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}.

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

find the area of the 1/4 circle when the radius is 8

Answers

Answer:

Method 1 (using the area of a whole circle and dividing by 4)

First work out the area of the whole circle by substituting the radius of 8cm into the formula for the area of the circle:

A = π ×r²

= π ×8²

= 64π (leave the answer as an exact solution as this need to be divided by 4).

So all you need to do now is divide the answer by 4:

Area of a quadrant = 64π ÷4 = 16π = 50.3 cm² to 3 significant figures.

Method 2 (using ¼ πr²)

Substitute r = 8 directly into the formula A = ¼ πr².

A = ¼ πr².

A = ¼ × π × 8².

A = 50.3 cm²

As you can see it gives exactly the same answer as method 1.

Answer:

64pi / 4 = 16pi, or 50.27

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the area formula:

π * r^2 = Area

Substitute in 8 for r to get 64pi

Then all you have to do is divide 64pi by 4 to find a quarter of the area of the circle, which is 16pi. Or if you want rounded to nearest tenth, 50.27

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 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.

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

Answers

Answer:

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.
