Answer 1

Answer:

See I don't know the answer but I did another one like this if it doesn't help you can report it no problem

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 different ways you can solve this problem and you'll get the same answer.

To help you visualize what you have to do, it might be easiest to translate your problem to a unit that easier to use.

Since you only have a ribbon 5 feet long, but you must cut it into 6 pieces, you know it won't even be 1 foot long.

One way to solve the problem would be to translate your 5-foot ribbon into a ribbon divided into inches.

1 foot = 12 inches

To find out how many inches long your ribbon is, you'll need to multiply the number of feet by 12.

Once you know that, then you can more easily divide it by 6. This will tell you how many inches each ribbon is.

Careful! the answer is to be put into feet so once you know how many inches long the ribbon is, you must then divide by 12 to get the correct answer in feet. Don't forget to round to the nearest tenth.

Another way to solve the problem is to simply divide the 5 feet by the number 6 and then round your number to the nearest tenth. It may be harder to visualize the answer this way, but you will get the same answer as if you translated your ribbon into inches and then divided by 12.

Good luck! I hope this helps!

Answer 2

32 inches of ribbon does she have left.

What is Unit Conversion?

Unit conversion is a multi-step process that includes rounding, selecting the appropriate number of significant digits, and multiplying or dividing by a numerical factor.

We have,

Total length of Ribbon = 12 feet

After using 7 feet the remaining left

= 12 - 7

= 5 feet

Now, She gave 28 inches to her sister then the ribbon left

= 5 feet - 28 inches

= 60 inches - 28 inches

=  32 inches

= 2.66667 feet

Find the scale factor by 39 / 30

Take that times 10

1.3 x 10 = 13

Since the questions states these two shapes are "similar" the side will have identical scale factors.

Divide the longest side of the bigger shape to the smaller shape.

39 / 30 = 1.3

The scale factor is 1.3.

Now, multiply the shortest side if the smaller shape by the scale factor.

10 * 1.3 = 13

Therefore, the length of w is 13mm

A bag of fertilizer covers 3000 square feet of lawn. Find how many bags of fertilizer should be purchased to cover a rectangular lawn 230 feet by 180 feet

Answers

Answer:

14 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimension of lawn : 230 feet by 180 feet

area of rectangle is given by length * width

Since lawn is rectangular area of lawn = 230 feet * 180 feet = 41,400 sq. feet

Given that one bag of fertilizer covers 3000 square feet of lawn.

Thus , to find no. of bags required to cover whole lawn will be

total area of lawn/area which one bag of  fertilizer covers

no. of bags required to cover whole lawn = 41,400 sq. feet/3000 sq. feet

    = 13.8 bags.

As no. of bags cannot be fractional , hence rounding bag to nearest unit place is 14 bags.

What is the slope of the equation y-3=-4(x-5) ?

Answers

Answer:

m(slope)=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope is the thing you see before x so in this case y-3=-4x+20 so the slope or m is -4.

The slope of the equation y - 3 = -4 ( x - 5 ) is -4.

Given,

y - 3 = -4 ( x - 5 )

We need to find the slope of this equation.

What is the equation of a line with a slope?

The equation is given by:

y - b = m ( x - a)

Where (a, b) is a point that the line passes through and m = slope.

We have,

y - 3 = -4 ( x - 5 )

Here we see that the equation is in the form of y - b = m ( x - a).

Where,

(a, b) = (5, 3)

m = -4

We have,

Slope = m

m = -4

Thus the slope of the equation y - 3 = -4 ( x - 5 ) is -4.

to get a single tacky mirror?
1 goldfish, 2 tacky mirrors, 1 stuffed tiger
5 goldfish, 1 stuffed tiger
2 goldfish, 3 tacky mirrors

Answers

Answer:

g = number of tickets for goldfish

t = number of tickets for tacky mirrors

s = number of tickets for stuffed tiger

1g + 2t + 1s = 40

5g +     + 1s = 40

2g + 3t         = 40

using the second equatin we can find a value for s

1s = 40 -5g

now substitute in the first equation to get rid of s

1g + 2t + (40-5g) = 40

-4g + 2t         = 0

now use this new equation with equation 3 and solve for one of the values

-4g + 2t = 0

2g + 3t  = 40

multipy the second equation by 2 and then combine

-4g + 2t = 0

 4g + 6t = 80

8t = 80

t = 10  (so it takes 10 tickets to get a takcy mirror)

2g + 3(10) = 40

2g = 10

g = 5  (five tickets to get a goldfish)

s = 40 -5(5)

s = 15  (fifteen tickets for a stuffed tiger)

Many random number generators allow users to specify the range of the random numbers to be produced. Suppose that you specify that the random number Y can take any value between 0 and 2. Then the density curve of the outcomes has constant height between 0 and 2, and height 0 elsewhere.
(a) Is the random variable Y discrete or continuous? Why?
This is a discrete random variable because the set of possible values is an interval.
This is a continuous random variable because the set of possible values is an interval.
This is a discrete random variable because it has a finite sample space.
This is a continuous random variable because it has a finite sample space.
(b) What is the height of the density curve between 0 and 2? Draw a graph of the density curve.
(c) Use your graph from (b) and the fact that probability is area under the curve to find P(Y ≤ 1).

Answers

Answer:

a) This is a continuous random variable because the set of possible values is an interval.

b) Height = 0.5

Graph attached.

c) P(Y≤1) = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

a) If the density curve of the outcomes has a constant height, we have a uniform distribution for values between 0 and 2 (outside this range, the density function has a value of 0).

This function is continous and has a value for each real number. The set of possible values has a is an interval between 0 and 2, all with equal probability (the ones that are otuside this interval have 0 probability, so they are not possible values).

b) The height is calculated so that the total area under the density curve has to be equal to 1.

Then, we have to calculate the integral between 0 and 2 of the density function:

[tex]\int\limits^2_0 {U(x)} \, dx =\int\limits^2_0 {H} \, dx =H\int\limits^2_0 dx=H(x_2-x_1)=H(2-0)=1\\\\2H=1\\\\H=0.5[/tex]

The height is H=0.5

(Graph attached)

c) The probability can be calculated by integrating the density function (which is equal to the area under the curve) between 0 and 1, or using the graph.

With the graph, we see that the area is equal to the height (0.5) by the width of the interval (1), so the total area is 0.5 x 1 = 0.5.

The probability P(Y≤1) is equal to 0.5.

Using the uniform distribution, it is found that:

a)

This is a continuous random variable because the set of possible values is an interval.

b)

The height is [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex], and the sketch is given at the end of this answer.

c)

P(Y ≤ 1) = 0.5

An uniform distribution has two bounds, a and b.  

The probability of finding a value of at lower than x is:

[tex]P(X < x) = \frac{x - a}{b - a}[/tex]

In this problem, uniformly distributed between 0 and 2, thus [tex]a = 0, b = 2[/tex].

Item a:

Values in an interval, thus continuous. Discrete are for sample spaces, which is not the case here.

Item b:

The height is:

[tex]h = \frac{1}{b - a} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

The graph is sketched at the end of this answer.

Item c:

[tex]P(Y \leq 1) = \frac{1 - 0}{2 - 0} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5[/tex]

Thus, P(Y ≤ 1) = 0.5.

Mr. Vectadore is buying two new cowboy hats. All
together the hats cost $75.12. The second hat costs
twice as much as the first hat. What is the price of the
more expensive hat?
Round to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

$50.08

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use x to represent the lesser expensive hat and 2x to represent the more expensive hat since the more expensive hat is twice the price.

So, our equation would be 2x + x = 75.12

We can combine them together to make 3x.

Then, we make the 3x equal to 75.12

3x = 75.12

Now, we solve it.

Divide both sides by 3 to solve for x.

75.12/3 = 25.04

x = 25.04

Lastly, plug it in for 2x to get the price of the more expensive hat.

2(25.04) = ?

2(25.04) = 50.08

Therefore, the price of the more expensive hat is $50.08

Andry is from Madagascar, and he writes all of the content for your fundraising letters and website. Finally, Marjorie is from Berkeley, California, and she prepares profiles of potential donors and makes suggestions about what types of fundraising events might appeal to them.Although all of your employees are very good at what they do, the group has had some problems in the past. Andry and Marjorie have decided that they will write no more than one discrete piece of work per day, even if they are capable of writing more. If Andry writes more than one part of a website, Marjorie torments him by sending him a stream of instant messages questioning his mental abilities. Destiny and Marjorie tend to disagree about what kinds of events will appeal to donors, and they have had some heated arguments in the past. Marjorie usually wins these fights, which is making Destiny very resentful. Liam has told you that the group needs a strong leader who will make sure that the organization's goals are met. After reading about the history of management in your textbook, you find yourself particularly fascinated by the human relations approach to management.
