The highest location in a certain country is 14,864 feet above sea level. The lowest point in the same country is 141 feet below sea level.
Find the difference of the two elevations.
A city is 7,642 feet above sea level. Is this elevation closer to the highest point or the lowest point?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

15,003 and Highest Point

Step-by-step explanation:

The highest point is at a positive 14,864 feet so we will use the number 14, 864.

The lowest is at a negative (below sea level) 141, so we will use the number -141.

The difference between them means that you subtract.

14,862-(-141)= x

Note that there is a double negative so it is positive.

14862+141=15,003 feet difference between them.

A city at 7642 above sea level is:

7642-14862=7222 feet away. The city is 7222 feet away from the highest point.

7642--141=7783 feet away. The city is 7783 feet away from the lowest point.

7222 is less than 7783, so the city is closest to the highest point.

Answer 2

Answer:

The difference is 15,005 and for the second part its closer to the highest point

Hope this helps!

25. Filling Bottles A certain brand of apple juice is supposed to have 64 ounces of juice. Because the punishment for under filling bottles is severe, the target mean amount of juice is 64.05 ounces. However, the filling machine is not precise, and the exact amount of juice varies from bottle to bottle. The quality-control manager wishes to verify that the mean amount of juice in each bottle is 64.05 ounces so that she can be sure that the machine is not over- or under filling. She randomly samples 22 bottles of juice and measures the content and obtains the following data:
64.05 64.05 64.03 63.97 63.95 64.02 64.01 63.99 64.00 64.01 64.06 63.94 63.98 64.05 63.95 64.01 64.08 64.01 63.9 63.97 64.10 63.98

(a) Because the sample size is small, she must verify that the amount of juice is normally distributed and the sample does not contain any outliers. The normal probability plot and box plot are shown. Are the conditions for testing the hypothesis satisfied?

(b) Should the assembly line be shut down so that the machine can be re calibrated? Assume =0.06 ounces and use a 0.01 level of significance.

(c) Explain why a level of significance = 0.01 of might be more reasonable than 0.1 [Hint: Consider the consequences of incorrectly rejecting the null hypothesis.]

Dan and Paul share some money in the ratio 9:5.
Dan decides this is unfair so he gives Paul £32 of his share to make the ratio 1:1.
How much did Paul originally have?

Answers

Answer:

Paul had £40 originally.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let d be the money Dan has and p be the money Paul has

Then according to the given situation,

[tex]\frac{d}{p} = \frac{9}{5}\\d = \frac{9p}{5}\ \ \ Equation\ 1[/tex]

Now from the statement, "Dan decides this is unfair so he gives Paul £32 of his share to make the ratio 1:1"

[tex]\frac{d-32}{p} = 1[/tex]     Eqn 2

From 2

[tex]d - 32 = p\\[/tex]

Putting d = 9p/5

[tex]\frac{9p}{5} - 32 = p\\9p - 160 = 5p\\9p-5p = 160\\4p = 160\\\frac{4p}{4} = \frac{160}{4}\\p = 40[/tex]

Checking

[tex]d = \frac{9(40)}{5} = \frac{360}{5} = 72\\\frac{d}{p} = \frac{72}{40} = \frac{9}{5}[/tex]

Hence,

Paul had £40 originally.

=======================================================

Explanation:

Check out the diagrams below. I posted two of them. Start with figure 1.

Notice how I've copied the first two columns and placed them on the right side of the matrix.

After that, I've highlighted the diagonals. The numbers in each diagonal grouping multiply together. I've used color coding to show this.

Once you find all those products, you add up the values. Figure 1 shows a result of 42. This isn't the final answer, but it helps us get there.

Figure 2 is a similar idea, but we're doing the off diagonals instead of the main diagonals. The result here is 15.

The last step is to subtract the results found in figures 1 and 2. We get 42-15 = 27 as the final answer.

You could use co-factor expansion as an alternative method. For me, I prefer this method of multiplying diagonals. Unfortunately the method only works for 3x3 matrices.

FOR 20 POINTS!!!!! Luis has $12 and wants to buy 6.6 pounds of apples. Apples cost $1.80 per pound. Luis rounded each value and estimated that he does not have enough money to cover the cost of the apples before sales tax is applied. Which best explains how his estimate relates to the actual product? Because each value rounds up, his estimate is higher than the actual product. He might have enough money to buy the apples. Because each value rounds up, his estimate is higher than the actual product. He does not have enough money to buy the apples. Because each value rounds up, his estimate is lower than the actual product. He does not have enough money to buy the apples. Because each value rounds up, his estimate is lower than the actual product. He might have enough money to buy the apples.

Answers

Answer: Hope this helps.

Because each value rounds up, his estimate is higher than the actual product. He might have enough money to buy the apples. So A.

Step-by-step explanation:

We don't actually know what it was that Luis was estimating. Assuming he was estimating the cost of the apples he wants to buy, rounding up both the price and quantity will give an estimate of $2/lb × 7 lb = $14, which is more than he has to spend.

Luis could refine his estimate by realizing the actual price is 10% less than the vaue he used, and the actual quantity is not quite 6% less than the value he used. The amount Luis has is about 14% less than the cost he estimated, so considering estimation errors, he probabaly has enough money.

Answers

Answer:

  $98.11

Step-by-step explanation:

If your calculator doesn't work with mixed numbers, you must first convert 6 5/8% to a decimal fraction.

  6 5/8 = (6·8+5)/8 = 53/8 = 6.625

  6 5/8% = 0.01×6.625 = 0.06625

Then the desired amount is ...

  0.06625 × $1480.90 = $98.109625 ≈ $98.11

6 5/8% of $1,480.90 is $98.11.

Answer:

8 pm and 8 am

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the equation

[tex]2|(x-2)|-12=0[/tex]

There is a modulus in the equation this means that one value of the modulus will be positive and the other will be negative

Let us solve for the positive first

[tex]2(x-2)-12=0\\\Rightarrow 2x-4-12=0\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{16}{2}\\\Rightarrow x=8[/tex]

Now we add this value with 12 noon

So

[tex]12+8=8\ \text{pm}[/tex]

Let us solve for the negative

[tex]2(-(x-2))-12=0\\\Rightarrow 2(2-x)-12=0\\\Rightarrow 4-2x-12=0\\\Rightarrow x=-\dfrac{8}{2}\\\Rightarrow x=-4[/tex]

So

[tex]12-4=8\ \text{am}[/tex]

The times when the serving time is as advertised is 8 pm and 8 am.
