Jason divides his first 1/2 mile of the trail into 3 sections. He puts a sign at the end of each section. If the signs are an equal distance apart, what is the distance between the second and third signs?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1/6 mile

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance divided = 1/2 miles

No of sections = 3

Each division must equal = 1/2/3

                             = 1/2*1/3 = 1/6 mile.

The distance between each of the signs i.e between the first and second , second and third is 1/6 of the mile.

This can be done in decimals as well

1/2 mile= 0.5 mile.

When we divide 0.5 mile by 3 we get  0.167 which is equal to 1/6 in fractions.

The measures of the angles of a triangle are shown in the figure below. Solve for x.

Answers

Answer:

x = 54

Step-by-step explanation:

All triangle angles add up to 180 so:

x + 36 + 90 = 180

x + 126 = 180

x = 180 - 126

D.

14 - 4 = 109 - 3 = 6, 10 > 6, not true

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Option B is correct because from the data it's visible that all the data are around 6 miles in other words clustered. In Class A half of them are on left and half are on right. Option A is wrong because there are 17 students in class A and 18 students in class B.

Option C is wrong because the mean is 8.2 and the median is 6.

To find mean add up all the miles the students chose and divide by total students (4+4+4+4+4+5+5+5+6+6+12+13+13+13+13+14+14)/17 = 8.2

To find the median line up all the numbers and find the one in middle. It's 6.

Option D is wrong because the range for class A is (14-4)=10

and class B is (9-3)=6. So the range of class A is greater than class B.

To find range maximum value-minimum value

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{2*x - 2}{2*x} - \frac{3*x + 2}{4*x} = \frac{x - 6}{4*x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the expression:

[tex]\frac{2*x - 2}{2*x} - \frac{3*x + 2}{4*x}[/tex]

The first thing we want to do, is to have the same denominator in both equations, then we need to multiply the first term by (2/2), so the denominator becomes 4*x

We will get:

[tex](\frac{2}{2} )\frac{2*x - 2}{2*x} - \frac{3*x + 2}{4*x} = \frac{4*x - 4}{4*x} - \frac{3*x + 2}{4*x}[/tex]

Now we can directly add the terms to get:

[tex]\frac{4*x - 4}{4*x} - \frac{3*x + 2}{4*x} = \frac{4*x - 4 - 3*x - 2}{4*x} = \frac{x - 6}{4*x}[/tex]

a movie theater has 15 rows of State each rows have 24. if there where 28 empty seats during one show how many people where there?

Answers

Answer:

332

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many seats there were, multiply the number of rows with the number of seats in each row:

15 (24) = 360

From these total seats, there are 28 empty seats, meaning:

360 - 28 = 332

There were 332 people.

y= x+14 , x+ 2y= 36, find x and y and show solution pls

Answers

Answer:

Solve the equation for x.

The simplified system is the arbitrary solution of the original system of equations.

Y=x+14

y=18−x2

Reorder 18

and −x2.

y=−x2+18

Y=x+14

Solve the equation for Y.

Y=−2y+50

x=36−2y

Reorder 36

and −2y.

x=−2y+36

Y=−2y+50

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

given

[tex]y = x + 14 \\ y - x = 14 \\ - x + y = 14[/tex]

as equation 1

and

[tex]x + 2y = 36[/tex]

as equation 2.

We will now use elimination method to solve simultaneous equations.

We will use equation 1 + equation 2 to eliminate x and solve for y.

[tex] - x + x + y + 2y = 14 + 36 \\ 0 + 3y = 50 \\ 3y = 50 \\ y = 50 \div 3 \\ = \frac{50}{3} \: or \: 16 \frac{2}{3} [/tex]

Now substitute y into equation 1.

[tex]y = x + 14 \\ x + 14 = y \\ x = y - 14 \\ x = 16\frac{2}{3} - 14 \\ = 2 \frac{2}{3} [/tex]
