Dan has a board that is
8 3/4
feet long. He cuts off
4 5/6
feet and says he has
4 1/12
feet left. Which of the following explains whether Dan is correct?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

He is wrong.The answer is 3 11/12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

8 3/4 - 4 5/6

Simplify:

8 9/12 - 4 10/12

Solve:

8 - 4 = 4= 9/12 - 10/12= 21/12 - 10/12= 11/12= 3 + 11/12= 3 11/12.

He is wrong.

He was off by 3 digits.

A novelty store sells 8 comic books for every 3 action figures. On
Monday, they sold 32 comic books. On Tuesday, they sold 18 action
figures. What is the difference between the number of action
figures sold on Monday and Tuesday? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

THE answer is 6

First Calculate the number of action figures sold on Monday:

8 comic books for every 3 action figures

32 comic books =? action figures

8 x 4 = 32

so, 3 x 4 = 12 action figures sold on Monday

next Find the difference between the number of action figures sold on Monday and Tuesday

They're asking for the difference, so you subtract

18 - 12 = 6

Hence, the difference in the number of books on Monday and Tuesday is 6

Normal Distribution (Standard deviation)
Image attached! Due in 1 hour! please help!

Answers

I don't know what kind of calculator you have at your disposal, so I'll just give one way of computing the sample mean and standard deviation.

• To get the mean, add up all the data points and divide the total by the number of data:

[tex]\bar x = \displaystyle \sum_i \frac{x_i}n = \frac{1243+1264+\cdots+1275}9 \approx 1273.89 \\ \implies \boxed{\bar x \approx 1274}[/tex]

• To get the s.d. s, first compute the variance s² by adding up the squared difference between each of the data points and the sample mean, and divide the total by 1 less than the number of data:

[tex]s^2 = \displaystyle \sum_i \frac{\left(x_i-\bar x\right)^2}{n-1} = \frac{(1243-1274)^2+(1264-1274)^2+\cdots+(1275-1274)^2}8 \approx 1211.61[/tex]

The s.d. is the square root of the variance:

[tex]s^2 \approx 1211.61 \implies s \approx 34.8082 \implies \boxed{s\approx 35}[/tex]

The 90% confidence interval for the sample mean has upper and lower limits, respectively, of

[tex]\bar x \pm \dfrac{\left|Z_{\alpha/2}\right| s}{\sqrt n}[/tex]

(positive root for upper limit, negative root for lower limit)

where [tex]Z_{\alpha/2}[/tex] is the critical value for a (1 - α)×100% confidence level. By critical value, I mean

[tex]\mathrm{Pr}\left[ Z \le Z_c \right] = c[/tex]

where Z is a random variable following the standard normal distribution.

In this case, we have a 90% confidence level, so α = 0.1, and the critical value is [tex]Z_{0.05} \approx -1.64[/tex]. Then the confidence interval has upper limit

[tex]\bar x + \dfrac{\left|Z_{0.05}\right|s}{\sqrt n} = 1274 + \dfrac{1.64 \times 35}{\sqrt9} \approx 1292.97 \approx \boxed{1293}[/tex]

and lower limit

[tex]\bar x - \dfrac{\left|Z_{0.05}\right|s}{\sqrt n} = 1274 - \dfrac{1.64 \times 35}{\sqrt9} \approx 1254.8 \approx \boxed{1255}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangular field is ten times as long as it is wide. If the perimeter of the field is 1540 feet, what are the dimensions of the field?

Answers

Answer:

700 by 70

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for perimeter is 2(l + w). Since the length has an assigned value, l will become 10w.

2(10w + w) = 1540

First, add the parenthetical expression to get 11w.

2(11w) = 1540

Now, DISTRIBUTE! 2(11w) becomes 22w.

22w = 1540

Lastly, divide by 22 to get 70. You can also say that this could be 22w = 154 * 10. 22 * 7 is 154 (140 + 14), and 7 * 10 is 70.

w = 70

Now that we know the width, substitute 70 for w in the 10w expression.

l = 10(70)

Just multiply and you'll get 700.

l = 700

Now we know the dimensions to be 700 * 70 (or 70 * 700; I just prefer to put the length first)

a. Graph the equation.
b. How much does a bracelet with three charms cost?

Answers

Answer:

  a.  see attached

  b.  $140

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

The graph starts at y=65 when x=0 and increases by 25 for each increase of 1 in x. The attachment shows a graph of the equation.

b.

Use x=3 in the equation.

  -25x +y = 65

  y = 65 +25x = 65 +25(3) = 140

The best statement in geometric proof that proves the theorem that vertical angles are equal [tex]\angle2 + \angle3 = 180^{\circ}[/tex]  because ∠2 and ∠3 are linear pair.

In the given proof, where the angles are labeled as ∠1, ∠2, ∠3, and ∠4,  demonstrate the equality of vertical angles by utilizing the concept of a linear pair:

Step 1: Given two lines intersect.

Step2:

State that ∠1 and ∠2 are adjacent angles, as they share a common side.Introduce the concept of a linear pair, which states that if two angles form a straight line, their measures sum up to 180°. Since ∠1 and ∠2 form a straight line, their measures sum up to 180 degrees. Express the equation:                                                                             [tex]\angle1 + \angle2 = 180^{\circ}[/tex].

Step 3:

Demonstrate that ∠2 and ∠3 are also adjacent angles, sharing a common side.Apply the linear pair concept to ∠2 and ∠3, resulting in the equation: [tex]\angle2 + \angle3 = 180^{\circ}[/tex].

Step 4:

By comparing the equations  [tex]\angle1 + \angle2 = 180^{\circ}[/tex] and  [tex]\angle2 + \angle3 = 180^{\circ}[/tex], deduce that ∠1 and ∠3 are equal angles.

By following this step-by-step geometric proof,  establish that the best statement to prove the theorem "Vertical angles are equal when two lines intersect" is the statement that defines vertical angles as "Vertical angles are formed by adjacent angles sharing a common side

Answer:

  a) y = 10x +500

  b) $500

  c) $15 for 100; $10.50 for 1000

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

We assume the given "cost per unit" is the variable cost per unit. The total cost (y) for x units, given some fixed cost (b), is ...

  y = 10x +b

For 100 units, this is ...

  1500 = 10(100) +b

  500 = b . . . . . . . . subtract 1000

The cost function rule is ...

  y = 10x +500

__

b)

The fixed cost is the cost of producing 0 units:

  y = 10(0) +500

  y = 500 . . . . . . . the fixed cost in dollars

__

c)

The average cost (ac) of producing n units is the total cost divided by n:

  ac(n) = (10n +500)/n = 10 +500/n

The average cost for 100 units is

  ac(100) = 10 +500/100 = 15 . . . average dollar cost for 100 units

The average cost for 1000 units is ...

  ac(1000) = 10 +500/1000 = 10.50 . . . average dollar cost for 1000 units
