Suppose Phil reads a book that contains 16 conspiracy theories. When he researches the
theories, he finds that 75% of them are false. How many of the theories are true?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4 of the conspiracy theories were true

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentages

Phil read a book with 16 conspiracy theories, 75% of which were false. It means that 25% of them were true.

25% of 16 is 25 * 16 / 100 =400 / 100 = 4

Thus, 4 of the conspiracy theories were true

Consider the hexagon ABCDEF what is the value of X? What is the measure of angle A? what is the measure of angle BCG?

Answers

Answer:

x = 52.5

<A = 152.5°

<BCG = 45°

Step-by-step Explanation:

Sum of interior angles of n-sided polygon = (n - 2)180

Sum of interior angles of hexagon = (6 - 2)180 = 4(180) = 720°

Therefore, sum of all the interior angles in the given hexagon = 720.

Thus:

3x - 5 + 2x + 140 + 135 + 2x + 30 + x = 720

Solve for x. Add like terms.

8x + 300 = 720

Subtract 300 from both sides

8x = 720 - 300

8x = 420

Divide both sides by 8

8x/8 = 420/8

x = 52.5

<A = (3x - 5)

Plug in the value of x

<A = 3(52.5) - 5 = 152.5°

<BCG = 180 - (2x + 30) (angles on a straight line)

Plug in the value of x

<BCG = 180 - (2(52.5) + 30)

<BCG = 180 - (105 + 30)

<BCG = 180 - 135

<BCG = 45°

Write the equation and slope intercept form: y-4=2(x+3)

Answers

Answer:

y = 2x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

To write the equation in slope-intercept form, we can just solve the equation for slope-intercept form.

y - 4 = 2(x + 3)

Distribute the 2 on the right side.

y - 4 = 2x + 6

Add 4 to both sides.

y = 2x + 10

Notice, now we have the equation in slope-intercept form.

I hope this helps. Happy studying.

A state lottery game consists of choosing one card from each of the four suits in a standard deck of playing cards. (There are 13 cards in each suit.)

Count the number of ways in which four cards, each of a different face value, can be chosen.
ways

Answers

Answer:

17160

Step-by-step explanation:

first there are 13 options

then there are 13 - 1 that was chosen

then there are 13 - 2 that were chosen

then there are 13 - 3 that were chosen

so that's 13 options, then 12 options, then 11 options, and then 10 options

and in order to figure out all of the possibilties we mutiply the options so

13*12*11*10 = 17160

In this problem, four cards are chosen, each with 13 ways, hence [tex]n_1 = n_2 = n_3  = n_4 = 13[/tex], and:

34 days 4 hours and 40 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

First convert 3,962km to miles.

There are 1.609km in 1 mile so:

3,962km/1.609km = 2461.87 miles ≈ 2,462mi

If your walking speed is 3mph then divide the distance by 3.

2462/3 = 820.67hours.

Let's figure out the number of days, hours, minutes.

820.67hr/24 = 34.1944 days since we have a fraction of a day, let's figure out hours.

.1944 x 24 = 4.6666  So 4 hours and some minutes, let's figure out the minutes.

.66666 x 60 = 40

At 3mph it will take you 34 days 4 hours and 40 minutes to walk from New York to Los Angeles if you take no breaks and don't sleep.

Two taxi companies in a city only charge by mileage and do not charge an initial fee. If Taxi 1 charges $3.00 per miles and Taxi 2 charges $1.77 per kilometer. Determine how much a 12 mile ride will cost in each taxi. There are 1.61 kilometers in every mile.(1 point) A 12 mile ride in Taxi 1 costs $34.20, and in Taxi 2 it costs $36.00 A 12 mile ride in Taxi 1 costs $36.00, and in Taxi 2 it costs $13.19 A 12 mile ride in Taxi 1 costs $34.00, and in Taxi 2 it costs $34.20 A 12 mile ride in Taxi 1 costs $36.00, and in Taxi 2 it costs $34.20

Answers

Answer:

A 12 mile ride in Taxi 1 costs $36.00, and in Taxi 2 it costs $34.20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Charges of taxi 1 = $3.00 per mile

Charges of taxi 2 = $1.77 per kilometer

1 mile = 1.61 kilometers

To find:

Cost of a 12 miles ride for taxi 1 and taxi 2.

Solution:

Let us first convert the charges of each taxi to per mile.

Taxi 1 charges are already given in per mile.

Charges for 1 mile = $3

Charges for 12 miles = 3 [tex]\times[/tex] 12 = $36

Taxi 2 charges = 1.77 [tex]\times[/tex] 1.61 = $2.85 per mile

Charges for 12 miles = 2.85 [tex]\times[/tex] 12 = $34.20

Therefore, the answer is:

A 12 mile ride in Taxi 1 costs $36.00, and in Taxi 2 it costs $34.20.
