you are a contractor installing a brick sidewalk. The portion of the sidewalk will occupancy and area of 100 feet long by 4 feet wide. Each brick will occupy and area 8 inches long by 4 inches wide what is the minimyn nuber of bricks will you need to occupy this area

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1800 bricks

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Sidewalk = 100ft by 4ft

Brick = 8 inches by 4 inches

Required

Determine the minimum number of bricks

First, we need to determine the area of both;

[tex]Sidewalk = 100ft * 4ft[/tex]

[tex]Sidewalk = 400ft^2[/tex]

[tex]Brick = 8in * 4in[/tex]

[tex]Brick = 32in^2[/tex]

Number of bricks is calculated as follows;

[tex]Number = \frac{Sidewalk}{Brick}[/tex]

[tex]Number = \frac{400ft^2}{32in^2}[/tex]

Convert ft^2 to in^2

[tex]Number = \frac{400 * 144in^2}{32in^2}[/tex]

[tex]Number = \frac{57600in^2}{32in^2}[/tex]

[tex]Number = 1800[/tex]

A circuit board manufacturer rejects a 100-ohm resistor if its measured resistance is 0.15 ohm or more away from 100 ohms. Resistors A and B are rejected. Resistor A's resistance differs from 100 ohms by +0.15 ohm. Resistor B's resistance differs from 100 ohms by -0.78 ohm. Which resistor has a resistance closer to 100 ohms?

Answers

Answer:

Resistor A has a resistance closer to 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know which of the two resistors have a resistance closer to 100 ohms

To know the resistance closer to 100, we need to know the absolute value of the resistances

-0.78 has a resistance of 100 - 0.78 = 99.22

The 15 ohms resistor has resistance of 100 + 0.15 = 100.15

Since 100.15 is closer to 100 than 99.22, due to the absolute value of both, then the +0.15 ohm resistor is closer to 100

which fraction is less 2/10 or 5/8 or neither they are equal

Answers

2/10 is less, because with a common denominator they are 8/40 and 25/40.  Since 5/8 = 25/40, and 8/40 is smaller than that, 2/10 is smaller.

Answer:

2/10 is less than 5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

2/10 =0.20

5/8= 0.625

0.20<0.625

Answers

Answer:

y - 2 = 4(x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Use point slope form, y - y1 = m(x - x1), where m is the slope:

Plug in the slope and the given point:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 2 = 4(x - 1)

If f(x) = 2x^3 - 14x^2 + 38x -26 and x-1 is a factor of f(x) find all of the zeros of f(x) algebraically.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First confirm that x = 1 is one of the zeros.

f(1) = 2(1)^3 - 14(1)^2 + 38(1) - 26

f(1) = 2 - 14 + 38 - 26

f(1) = -12 + 38 = + 26

f(1) = 26 - 26

f(1) = 0

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

next perform a long division

x -1  || 2x^3 - 14x^2 + 38x - 26 || 2x^2 - 12x + 26

          2x^3 - 2x^2

          ===========

                    -12x^2 + 28x

                     -12x^2 +12x

                     ==========

                                  26x -26

                                  26x - 26

                                 ========

                                      0

Now you can factor 2x^2 - 12x + 26

                                 2(x^2 - 6x + 13)

The discriminate of the quadratic is negative. (36 - 4*1*13) = - 16

So you are going to get a complex result.

x = -(-6) +/- sqrt(-16)

     =============

                 2

x  = 3 +/- 2i

f(x) = 2*(x - 1)*(x - 3 + 2i)*(x - 3 - 2i)

The ratio of adult cats to kittens at a pet care center on was 5:2 . There were 12 kittens there that day. Thursday ​, 38 adult cats were at the pet care center. What is the difference between the number of adult cats at the pet care center on thursday and monday?

Answers

Answer:

8 adult cats

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of adult cats to kitten at the pet care center was 5:2

No of adult cats= 5x

No of kitten cats= 2x

Since there were 12 kittens that day

2x= 12

x= 12/2

x= 6

Number of adult cats = 5x

= 5 × 6

= 30 adult cats

Therefore since there were 38 adult cats in the pet center in Thursday then the difference between the number of adult cats in Thursday and Monday can be calculated as follows

= 38-30

= 8 adult cats

Audrey and Addy also went hiking up Mount Olympus. Audrey's distance in June was 2.95 miles and for July 2 5/8 miles. Addy went 2.85 miles in June and 3 3/8 miles in July. How much farther did Addy hike than Audrey in both June and July? *Answer will be in decimal form

Answers

Answer:

Addy hiked 0.65 miles more than Audrey.

Step-by-step explanation:

In June we have the following distance traveled by Audrey (Au) and Addy (Ad):

[tex] Au_{Jun} = 2.95 miles [/tex]

[tex] Ad_{Jun} = 2.85 miles [/tex]

And, in July we have:

[tex] Au_{Jul} = 2 + 5/8 miles = 21/8 miles = 2.625 miles [/tex]

[tex] Ad_{Jul} = 3 + 3/8 miles = 27/8 miles = 3.375 miles [/tex]

Hence in June and July, they traveled:

[tex] Au_{T} = Au_{Jun} + Au_{Jul} = 2.95 miles + 2.625 miles = 5.575 miles [/tex]

[tex] Ad_{T} = Ad_{Jun} + Ad_{Jul} = 2.85 miles + 3.375 miles = 6.225 miles [/tex]

Now, we can find how much farther did Addy hike than Audrey in both June and July:    

[tex] d = Ad_{T} - Au_{T} = 6.225 miles - 5.575 miles = 0.65 miles [/tex]

Therefore, Addy hiked 0.65 miles more than Audrey.

A three-digit personal identification number is chosen using the digits 1–9. The digits cannot be repeated. What is the approximate probability that the first digit will be 6? 0.00595 0.03571 0.11111 0.66667

Answers

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:it’s the 3rd ans on edge

The question is an illustration of probability, and the approximate probability that the first digit will be 6 is (c) 0.11111

How to determine the probability?

The number of digits in the pin = 3

Given that each digit cannot be repeated, the total number of pin is:

Pin = 9 * 8 * 7

Evaluate

Pin = 504

If the first digit is 6, the number of pins is:

First digit6 = 1 * 8 * 7

First digit6 = 56

So, the probability that the first digit is 6 is:

P = 56/504

Evaluate

P = 0.1111

Hence, the approximate probability that the first digit will be 6 is (c) 0.11111

Sydney and Tom each count the number of steps it takes for them to walk to school. Sydney counts a 4-digit number of steps. The total of Sydney's steps and Tom's steps in also a 4-digit number of steps. What is the greatest possible digit in the thousands place for Sydney's steps or for Tom's steps? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information provided we can say that the largest number of steps for either Sydney or Tom would be 8999 making the digit in the thousands place an 8. This is because both Sydney and Tom counted 4 digits meaning the lowest number for either of them is 1000 steps. Since the question also states that the combination/total of both their steps is still a 4 digit number, this means that the total must not exceed 9,999 steps. Therefore if the minimum is 1000 the maximum can only be 8,999 before going into the 5 digit number of steps.

B. X= 8 + sqrt 7
C. X= 8 +sqrt 35
D. X= -8+sqrt 35

Answers

By completing squares we will see that the solutions are:

[tex]x =\pm \sqrt{35} + 8[/tex]

How to complete squares?

Here we have the quadratic equation:

[tex]x^2 - 16x + 50 = 21[/tex]

We can rewrite it as:

[tex]x^2 - 2*8*x + 50 - 21 = 0\\\\x^2 - 2*8*x + 29= 0[/tex]

Then we must have a 8² term to complete squares, then we need to add and subtract 35.

[tex]x^2 - 2*8*x + 29 +35 - 35= 0\\\\(x - 8)^2 - 35 = 0\\\\(x - 8)^2 = 35[/tex]

Now we can solve this:
