It take 4 hours to paint a house working alone.

Betty and karen have been hired to paint the houses in a new development. Working together the women can paint a house in two thirds the time that it takes karen working alone. Betty takes 8 hours to paint a house alone. How long does it take karen to paint a house working alone?

According to the problem, when Betty and Karen work together, they can paint a house in two-thirds the time it takes Karen to paint a house alone, so t * 2/3.

Let k = time it takes Karen to paint the house alone

then

(2/3)(k)(1/k + 1/8) = 1

(2k/3)(1/k + 1/8) = 1

(2k)(1/k + 1/8) = 3

(2 + k/4) = 3

K=4

Answer:

P(≥ 4) = 0.44

Step-by-step explanation:

The experimental probability of landing on a number greater than or equal to 4 can be calculated by adding the frequency of outcomes 4, 5, and 6 and dividing by the total number of trials.

The frequency of outcomes 4, 5, and 6 is 6 + 9 + 7 = 22.

The experimental probability of landing on a number greater than or equal to 4 is 22/50 = 0.44.

So, the answer is B. P(≥ 4) = 0.44.

Answer:

P(≥ 4) = 0.44

The number of solutions that this system of equations shown above has is: A. no solution.

In Mathematics, no solution is sometimes referred to as zero solution, and an equation is said to have no solution when the left hand side and right hand side of the equation are not the same or equal.

This ultimately implies that, an equation would have no solution when both sides of the equal sign are not the same and the variables cancel out, which can be demonstrated through this system of equation;

x + y = 4

x + y = 6

4 - y + y = 6

4 = 6 (no solution).

An equivalent expression  of x² - 8x + 5 is  (x - 4)² - 11

To convert this quadratic expression x² - 8x + 5 into the form (x - a)² - b we will use completing the square method.

Comparing expression  x² - 8x + 5 with ax² + bx + c we get,

a = 1, b = -8 and c = 5

First we find the value of the expression (b/2a)² is:

(b/2a)²

= [-8/(2 × 1)]²

= (-8/2)²

= (-4)²

= 16

Now, we add and subtract the value of the term (b/2a)² in the expression  x² - 8x + 5

So the expression  x² - 8x + 5 becomes,

x² - 8x + 5

= x² - 8x + 5 + 16 - 16        

= x² - 8x  + 16 + 5 - 16       ......(commutative property of addition)

= (x - 4)² - 11                      ......(since (x - 4)² = x² - 8x  + 16)

Therefore, the required expression is:  (x - 4)² - 11

The height of the drop can be increased by stacking tables, and we can then observe the effect on the pennies' trajectory.

To increase the height from which the pennies are dropped, we can stack two tables. To do this, first, place one of the tables on a level surface. Then, move the other table so that it is parallel to the first table, and place it on top. Make sure that the two tables are securely stacked and do not wobble. Then, use a ruler to measure the height of the two tables combined. This will give us the new height from which the pennies will be dropped. After that, drop the pennies from the new height and observe their trajectory. We can then compare the trajectory of the pennies when dropped from the increased height with the trajectory when dropped from the original height. This will allow us to determine the effect of the increased height on the pennies' trajectory.

Therefore, the total weight of 10 people inside the lift is 70 × 10 = 700kg.

Now, remaining weight that can fit in the lift is 1000 - 700 = 300kg.

Assuming the mean weight of the people who get inside the lift is constant, we find the closest number of people who can get inside the lift to be:

300 ÷ 70 = 4.285

The total value of Mr. Liling's shares at the end of 2016 was $1388.50.

The value of a share, also known as the stock price, represents the price per unit of ownership in a company. It is determined by supply and demand for the stock in the stock market and can fluctuate based on a variety of factors such as the company's financial performance, industry trends, and overall market conditions.

At the beginning of 2016, Mr. Liling bought 10 shares of stock in QIZ Software for $198.58 per share, so the total cost was 10 * $198.58 = $1985.80.

In 2016, the stock price of QIZ Software changed by -$59.73, so the value of Mr. Liling's shares at the end of 2016 was $1985.80 - 10 * $59.73 = $1985.80 - $597.30 = $1388.50.

The area of the region bounded by the lines y = 3x - 6 and y = -2x + 8 between the x-axis is 12/5 units.

We can find the intersection point between these two lines;

y = 3x - 6

y = -2x + 8

Set these two equations equal to each other.

3x - 6 = -2x + 8

5x - 6 = 8

Add 6 to both sides of the equation.

5x = 14

Divide both sides of the equation by 5.

x = 14/5  

Find the y-value where these points intersect by plugging this x-value back into either equation.

y = 3(14/5) - 6

y = 42/5 - 6

Multiply 6 by (5/5) to get common denominators.

y = 42/5 - 30/5  

Subtract and simplify.

y = 12/5

These two lines intersect at the point 12/5. This is the height of the triangle formed by these two lines and the x-axis.

Now let's find the roots of these equations (where they touch the x-axis) so we can determine the base of the triangle.

Set both equations equal to 0.

(I) 0 = 3x - 6  

Add 6 both sides of the equation.

6 = 3x

x = 2  

Set the second equation equal to 0.

(II) 0 = -2x + 8

Add 2x to both sides of the equation.

2x = 8

x = 4

The base of the triangle is from (2,0) to (4,0), making it a length of 2 units.

The height of the triangle is 12/5 units.

Formula for the Area of a Triangle:

A = 1/2bh

Substitute 2 for b and 14/5 for h.

A = (1/2) · (2) · (12/5)

The annual interest rate of the savings account is 0.04%

Compound interest refers to the interest added to a loan or deposit. Compound interest is the type of interest that is calculated using both the principal and the interest that has accumulated over the preceding period. In contrast to simple interest, compound interest does not factor in the principal when calculating the interest for a subsequent period.

We have the formula

Amount, A = P [1 + (r/t)]ⁿ

where P = principal, r = rate of interest, t = number of times interest is compounded per year, n = time (in years)

Given:

principal = 2500

Amount =  2937.91

t = 1

n = 4

So, 2937.91 = 2500 [1 + (r/1)]⁴

[tex](1.175)^{(1/4)[/tex] = 1 + r

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the annually compounded interest rate that results in £2500 growing to £2937.91 in 4 years.

The amount in an account earning compound interest is ...

  A = P(1 +r)^t

where P is the principal invested at rate r for t years.

Solving for r, we find ...

  (A/P)^(1/t) = 1 +r

  r = (A/P)^(1/t) -1 = (2937.91/2500)^(1/4) -1 ≈ 0.0412 ≈ 4.1%
