What is his rate in chapters per hour?

1.) x = 3.5

2.) x = -40

3.) x = -10

Answer:

3 pens

Step-by-step explanation:

Total expenditure (Price x Quantity) on pens & pencils = $30

Let pen quantity be = x , Let pencil quantity be = y

Given : Pen (x) price = 5 , Pencil (y) price = 1.5 , Pencils (y) = Pen (x) + 5

So, 5x + 1.5y = 30

5x + 1.5 (x + 5) = 30  → 5x + 1.5x + 7.5 = 30  → 6.5x + 7.5 = 30

6.5x = 30 - 7.5  → 6.5x = 22.5

x = 22.5 / 6.5 → x = 3.46  ≈ 3 pens

Answer:

7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To make orange-shaded paint if we use 9 quarts of red paint we need 7.5 quarts of yellow paint.

A ratio is a comparison between two similar quantities in simplest form.

Proportions are of two types one is the direct proportion in which if one quantity is increased by a constant k the other quantity will also be increased by the same constant k and vice versa.

In the case of inverse proportion if one quantity is increased by a constant k the quantity will decrease by the same constant k and vice versa.

Given to make an orange shade paint 5 quarts of yellow paint and 6 quarts of red paint are needed.

Assuming the no. of yellow paint needed is x when 9 quarts of red paint is used.

As they are in direct proportion we can write

5 : 6 : : x : 9.

5/6 = x/9.

6x = 45.

x = 7.5.

Answer:

the general form of the equation of the line will be:

[tex]y-x=2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the slope:

Taking two points from the line as shown in figure

Finding the slope between (-2, 0) and (0, 2)

[tex]\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-2,\:0\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(0,\:2\right)[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{2-0}{0-\left(-2\right)}[/tex]

[tex]m=1[/tex]

Finding the y-intercept

We know that the y-intercept can be calculated by setting x=0

From the figure, it is clear that at x=0, y=2

Thus, the y-intercept is (0, 2)

We know that the slope-intercept form of the equation line is:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

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

As we have already determined the slope = m = 1 and the y-intercept b=2.

Substituting the values in the slope-intercept form of the equation line

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

[tex]y=(1)x+2[/tex]

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

Writing the equation in the standard form form

As we know that the equation in the standard form is

[tex]Ax+By=C[/tex]

where x and y are variables and A, B and C are constants

As we already know the equation in slope-intercept form

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

so just simplify the equation to write in standard form

[tex]y-x=2[/tex]

Thus, the general form of the equation of the line will be:

[tex]y-x=2[/tex]

Answer:

There are 90 coins in the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]x[/tex], [tex]y[/tex] the number of dimes and quarters. Now we proceed to translate each relevant sentence into mathematical expressions:

(i) The number of quarters is 6 more than twice the number of dimes:

[tex]y = 2\cdot x + 6[/tex] (1)

(ii) There are a total of 276 coins in the bag:

[tex]x + y = 276[/tex] (2)

By applying (1) in (2), we find that the number of dimes is:

[tex]x+2\cdot x + 6 = 276[/tex]

[tex]3\cdot x = 270[/tex]

[tex]x = 90[/tex]

There are 90 coins in the bag.

We know that four snacks and three movie tickets cost $40 dollars, and when you take away 2 snacks but still keep the tickets, its $32.

2 snacks= $8

What i did to find the cost of each ticket is I divided 8 by 2 (8/2) and ended getting $4

1 snack= $4

Now to find the cost of each ticket, i divided 2 snacks ($8) and got this equation:

32 - 8= 24

3 tickets= $24

Now to find the amount for each ticket, i divided 24 by 3 (24/3) and got the answer:

1 ticket= $8

Therefore, snacks are $4 and movie tickets are $8

x tickets= 8x

x snacks= 4x

Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Inequality

-15x + 4 ≤ 39

Step 2: Solve for x

Subtract 4 on both sides:                     -15x ≤ 35

Divide -15 on both sides:                      x ≥ -7/3

Here we see that any value x greater than or equal to -7/3 would work as a solution to the inequality.

Answer:

(a) Explained below.

(b) The 99% confidence interval for the difference between proportions is (-0.00094, 0.00494).

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided is:

n (Men who finished the marathon) = 25,221

n (Women who finished the marathon) = 12,883

Compute the proportion of men and women who finished the marathon as follows:

[tex]\hat p_{1}=\frac{25221}{25221 +253}=0.99\\\\\hat p_{2}=\frac{12883 }{12883+163}=0.988[/tex]

The combined proportion is:

[tex]\hat P=\frac{X_{1}+X_{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}}\\\\=\frac{25221+12883}{38520}\\\\=0.989[/tex]

(a)

The hypothesis is:

H₀: The rate of those who finish the marathon is the same for men and women, i.e. p₁ - p₂ = 0.

Hₐ: The rate of those who finish the marathon is not same for men and women, i.e. p₁ - p₂ ≠ 0.

Compute the test statistic as follows:

[tex]Z=\frac{\hat p_{1}-\hat p_{2}}{\sqrt{\hat P(1-\hat P)\cdot [\frac{1}{n_{1}}+\frac{1}{n_{2}}]}}[/tex]

   [tex]=\frac{0.99-0.988}{\sqrt{0.989(1-0.989)\times[\frac{1}{25474}+\frac{1}{13046}]}}\\\\=1.78[/tex]

Compute the p-value as follows:

[tex]p-value=2\times P(Z>1.78)\\\\=2\times 0.03754\\\\=0.07508\\\\\approx 0.075[/tex]

The p-value of the test is more than the significance level. The null hypothesis was failed to be rejected.

Thus, concluding that the rate of those who finish is the same for men and women.

(b)

Compute the 99% confidence interval for the difference between proportions as follows:

The critical value of z for 99% confidence level is 2.58.

[tex]CI=(\hat p_{1}-\hat p_{2})\pm z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_{1}(1-\hat p_{1})}{n_{1}}+\frac{\hat p_{2}(1-\hat p_{2})}{n_{2}}}[/tex]

     [tex]=(0.99-0.988)\pm 2.58\times\sqrt{\frac{0.99(1-0.99)}{25474}+\frac{0.988(1-0.988)}{13046}}\\\\=0.002\pm 0.00294\\\\=(-0.00094, 0.00494)\\\\[/tex]

Thu, the 99% confidence interval for the difference between proportions is (-0.00094, 0.00494).

Answer:

The expression that equivalent to (g - f)(3) is 6(3) - 4 + 3² ⇒ C

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the question

∵ f(x) = 4 - x²

∵ g(x) = 6x

→ Find at first (g - f)(x) by subtracting f(x) from g(x)

∵ (g - f)(x) = 6x - (4 - x²)

→ Remember (-)(+) = (-) and (-)(-) = (+)

∴ (g - f)(x) = 6x - 4 + x²

→ Substitute x by 3 to find (g - f)(3)

∵ (g - f)(3) = 6(3) - 4 + (3)²

∴ (g - f)(3) = 6(3) - 4 + 3²

The expression that equivalent to (g - f)(3) is 6(3) - 4 + 3²

Answer:

6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Estimated distance = 80 miles

Actual distance covered = 75.5 miles

We need to find the percent error of the cyclist's estimate. Its formula is given by :

[tex]\%=\dfrac{|\text{actual value-estimated value}|}{\text{actual value}}\times 100[/tex]

Put all the values,

[tex]\%=\dfrac{80-75.5}{75.5}\times 100\\\\=5.96\%[/tex]

or

= 6%

So, the percentage error is 6%.

Answer:

13. 23 boat rides; 22 are full, and the first one has 301 passengers.

12. $11,067.50

Step-by-step explanation:

13,105 people in a day, divided by 582 per ride.

13,105/582 = 22 (with a remainder)

582 x 22 = 12,804

So, the remainder is

13,105 - 12,804 = 301

23 rides, with 22 full and the first one having 301 people.

Answer:

Simple....

you have: one is leaking 3 gallons per week and holds 256 gallons; whereas, the other one is leaking 5 gallons per week and holds 384 gallons.

Set up both the equations....

In y=mx+b form--->>>

y=-3x+256

y=-5x+384

To figure out when they will be equal..set the equations equal to each other....(remember to isolate the variable)

-3x+256=-5x+384

-3x+256=-5x+384

     -256        -256

-3x=-5x+128

-3x=-5x+128

+5x+5x

2x=128

x=64

I hope I helped!

Answer:

y = -2x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem we need to consider that the equation of a line perpendicular to another line will have a "negative reciprocal" slope so that when they cross, it forms a 90-degree angle, hence perpendicular.  Additionally, we will need to use the point-slope form and re-write it into the slope-intercept form to incorporate (2,4) into our equation.  With these things in mind, let's do that.

y = (1/2)x + (1/2)

We want a "negative reciprocal" so:

y = -2x + (1/2)

Since -2 is the "negative reciprocal" of 1/2.

And now we want to use the point-slope form to incorporate (2,4)

y - y0 = -2 ( x - x0 )

Where, y0 = 4 and x0 = 2.

y - y0 = -2 ( x - x0 )

y - 4 = -2 ( x - 2 )

y - 4 = -2x + 4

y = -2x + 8

So, the equation that is perpendicular to y = (1/2)x + (1/2) and includes the point (2,4) is y = -2x + 8.
