A construction company bought 5/6 of a pound of sand and mixed it with 2 2/3 pounds of cement. A construction worker used 1 1/3 pounds of the mixture. How much of the mixture is left?


Help me please! I also need proof you are right in the explanation!

Answers

Answer 1
It’s easier than you think, just don’t overthink it. You’re fine.
I think I’m right, but here;
5/6 + 2-2/3 = 3 1/2
Then you subtract how much the person used,
2-2/3 - 1-1/3 = 1 - 1/3 or 1.3333333 (repeated)

I think. It came out as a repeated decimal, but I just put it in fraction form.

I hope this helped :]

Determine if the following system of equations has no solutions, infinitely many solutions or exactly one solution.
-x+5y=-7
-3x +14y=-18

Answers

Answer:

One solution:(-8,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

 x = 5y + 7

Plug this in for variable  x  in equation [2]

  [2]    -3•(5y+7) + 14y = -18

  [2]     - y = 3

Solve equation [2] for the variable  y  

  [2]    y = - 3  

By now we know this much :

   x = 5y+7

   y = -3

Use the  y  value to solve for  x  

   x = 5(-3)+7 = -8  

Solution :

{x,y} = {-8,-3}

The variable w represents the number of weeks she has attended culinary school, and the variable a represents the total number of appetizer recipes she knows. After how many weeks of culinary school will Carly know a total of 8 appetizer recipes? *

Answers

Answer:

16 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion with the equation.

a = 2w

8

2 x 8= 16 then 16/1=16

It can't be negative because then the slope would be going downward from left to right, this line is going upwards. Also, the steepness of the slope proves it is a slope of 2 because a slope of 1/2 isn't very steep. You can also count 1 unit over and look how much the line changes to find the slope.

A tanker truck fills the gas station's reservoir at the rate of 1212 gallons per minute. If the reservoir was empty and it is now 35 gallons full, how long has the tanker been filling the reservoir? Round your answer to the nearest tenth. Enter your answer in the box.

Answers

Answer:

2.9 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Rate = 12 gallon/minute[/tex]

[tex]Size = 35\ gallon[/tex]

Required

Determine the time spent

The rate is a ratio of size to time

So, it can be expressed as:

[tex]Rate = \frac{Size}{Time}[/tex]

Substitute values for Rate and Size

[tex]12 = \frac{35}{Time}[/tex]

Cross Multiply

[tex]12 * Time = 35[/tex]

Solve for Time

[tex]Time = 35/12[/tex]

[tex]Time = 2.9[/tex] (approximated)

Find the measure of angle 4

Answers

Answer:

i feel this is an incomplete picture

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: 38 degrees.

Reasoning: The triangle on the left is an isosceles trainable. Meaning two of the angles are the same. That means that #1 is 62. A single triangle is equal to 180 degrees so 62+62=124 and 180-124=56 which means #2 is 56. Now, 2 & 3 are supplemental so added up they equal 180. So 180-56=124. #3 is 124 degrees. Now to figure out angle 4 all you have to do is add up 124+18=142 and take that from 180. 180-142=38. Angle #4 is 38 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

B has a domain connected to many other ranges which makes a relationship but confuses the whole function making it incorrect.

For answer D, the x coordinates 1 and 3 both have two y coordinates. That again makes a relationship but confuses the function making that answer incorrect.

In answer A, no domain is repeated in any of the points making it a function.

In answer C, again no domains are paired with more than one range making it a function. That why A and C are the answers

In order to safely clear a hurdle, a track runner must jump the hurdles with an angle of 30°. Find the height of the hurdle and the horizontal distance traveled if the runner covers a distance of 5 feet

Answers

The hurdle and runner form a right triangle (see attached picture) such that

sin(30°) = h / (5 ft)

and

cos(30°) = x / (5 ft)

where h is the height of the hurdle and x is the horizontal distance from where the runner jumps to the hurdle. So

h = (5 ft) sin(30°) = 5/2 ft = 2.5 ft

x = (5 ft) cos(30°) = (5√3)/2 ft ≈ 4.33 ft

The Collatz conjecture is one of the most famous unsolved mathematical problems, because it's so simple, you can explain it to a primary-school-aged kid, and they'll probably be intrigued enough to try and find the answer for themselves.

Answers

Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. However, I inferred you need a brief explanation about The Collatz conjecture.

Explanation:

Put simply, what the Collatz conjecture unsolved problem entails is that if any positive number is picked and it is:

An even number (eg 2, 4, 6,...), then if they are divided by 2,  the new number gotten should undergo the same process (that is to be divided by 2), it is believed your calculation would finally end up at 1. For example, let's pick the number 6, (6÷2=4; repeating the process 4÷2=1)An odd number, then if they are multiplied by 3 and 1 is added to the result, it is believed that your calculation would finally end up at 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

keith is an elevator operator in a big hotel. A(t)A(t)A, left parenthesis, t, right parenthesis models Keith's altitude (in meters relative to the ground) as a function of time (in minutes).Match each statement with the feature of the graph that most closely corresponds to it.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A relative maximum (or minimum) point is a point that is higher (or lower) than all of the points surrounding it.

This graph has a relative minimum point where A(t)=-12A(t)=−12A, left parenthesis, t, right parenthesis, equals, minus, 12, which means that Keith's lowest altitude was \textit{12}12start text, 12, end text meters below the ground.

A positive (or negative) interval is a domain interval over which the function values are all positive (or negative).

Since A(t)>0A(t)>0A, left parenthesis, t, right parenthesis, is greater than, 0 over the interval [6.5,10][6.5,10]open bracket, 6, point, 5, comma, 10, close bracket, this is a positive interval. This means that between the \textit{6.5}6.5start text, 6, point, 5, end text- and \textit{10}10start text, 10, end text-minute marks, Keith was above the ground.

An increasing (or decreasing) interval is a domain interval over which the function values increase (or decrease) as the input variable increases.

In this graph, the interval, 5, point, 5, comma, 8, close bracket is an increasing interval. This means that between the   end text-minute marks, the elevator was going up.
