In January 2013, a country's first-class mail rates increased to 52 cents for the first ounce, and 23 cents for each additional ounce. If Sabrina spent
$1742 for a total of 48 stamps of these two denominations, how many stamps of each denomination did she buy?
She bought
of the 52 cent stamps and
of the 23 cent stamps.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

She bought

22 of the 52 cent stamps and

26 of the 23 cent stamps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Total stamp increase = 48

Let number of 52 cent stamp = x

Number of 23 cent stamp = 48 - x

The cost equation :

0.52*x + 0.23*(48-x) = 17.42

0.52x + 11.04 - 0.23x = 17.42

0.52x - 0.23x = 17.42 - 11.04

0.29x = 6.38

x = 6.38 / 0.29

x = 22

Hence,

She bought 22 ; 52-cent stamps

And (48 - 22) = 26, 23-cent stamps

Find the upper 20%of the weight?

Answers

Answer:

The upper 20% of the weighs are weights of at least X, which is [tex]X = 0.84\sigma + \mu[/tex], in which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of all weights and [tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Upper 20% of weights:

The upper 20% of the weighs are weighs of at least X, which is found when Z has a p-value of 0.8. So X when Z = 0.84. Then

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]0.84 = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]X = 0.84\sigma + \mu[/tex]

The upper 20% of the weighs are weights of at least X, which is [tex]X = 0.84\sigma + \mu[/tex], in which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of all weights and [tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean.

PLS HELP ASAP ILL MARK BRAINLIEST Find the geometric probability of landing in the shaded area of the picture. The small circle has a diameter of 6 meters and the larger circle has a diameter of 54 meters. Show and explain all work.

Answers

Answer:

1/80

Step-by-step explanation:

(the area of the small circle)/(the area of the larger circle)

= (π× 3²)/(π× 27²)

(=> eliminate π)

= 3²/27² = (1/9)² = 1/81

since the shaded area is inside the larger circle,

the geometric probability =

What is the length of u and v in this 30-60-90 triangle

Answers

Answer:

option 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using trigonometric ratio:

[tex]Cos \ 60 = \frac{adjacent } {hypotenuse} \\\\\frac{1}{2} = \frac{4}{u}\\\\1 \times u = 2 \times 4 \\\\u = 8[/tex]

Now using Pythagoras theorem we will find v

[tex]8^2 = 4^2 + v^2\\\\64 = 16 + v^2\\\\v^2 = 64 - 16 \\\\v = \sqrt{48} = \sqrt{16 \times 3} = \sqrt{4^2 \times 3 } = 4\sqrt{3}[/tex]

By using trigonometric relations, we will see that v = 4*√3 and u = 8

How to get the missing lengths?

Here we have a right triangle, we can use trigonometric relations to find the missing sides.

We can see that v is the opposite cathetus of the 60° angle, then we can use the relation:

tan(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(adjacent cathetus)

Replacing what we know, we get:

tan(60°) = v/4

4*tan(60°) = v = 4*√3

To get the value of u, we use:

cos(a) = (adjacent cathetus)/(hypotenuse).

cos(60°) = 4/u

u = 4/cos(60°) = 2*4 = 8

Then we have:

v = 4*√3

u = 8

Answer:  20 square units

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

Work Shown:

A = h*(b1+b2)/2  .... area of trapezoid formula

A = 4*(7+3)/2

A = 4*(10)/2

A = 40/2

A = 20 square units

-----------

notes:

The bases b1 and b2 are parallel to one another.b1 = 7 is the longer horizontal base at the bottom. It spans from x = 1 to x = 8, so it's 8-1 = 7 units long.b2 = 3 is the shorter horizontal base up top. It spans from x = 2 to x = 5, so it's a distance of 3 units.h = 4 is the height. We can count out 4 spaces when going one base to the other, or we can note that the y coordinates subtract to 4 (ie 5-1 = 4)The base and height are always perpendicular to one another.As an alternative way to solve, you can break the figure into 2 triangles and a rectangle in between. Find the area of each piece, and then add those areas up to get the final answer.

Identify the location of the point (0, -3).

Answers

Answer:

Point p

Step-by-step explanation

The first number in your point is on the x axis, but since it's 0 you don't move anywhere.  

The second number in your point is on the y axis, it's -3, so you move down on the y axis 3 times.

When the x axis(first number) is negative you move left, and if the y axis(second number is negative you move down), and vise versa.

point P is where (0, -3) is

Find the y- intercept and x-intercept of the line.

Answers

Answer:

x-intercept is (2,0)

y-intercept is (0,-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the 'x-intercept', substitute zero for 'y' and solve:

4x - 0 = 8

4x = 8

x = 2;  x-intercept is (2,0)

4(0) - y = 8

0 - y = 8

y = -8; y-intercept is (0,-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this in two ways, firstly by eliminating all the wrong answers, and secondly by just knowing that the horizontal line in [tex]_[/tex][tex]\frac{}{AB}[/tex] means that we are talking about a line.

This is how we solve this question by using the eliminating process.

(A. ∠C) is not the right answer because the ∠ sign lets us know that this answer represents an angle, not a line

(B. B) is not the right answer because it represent a point, not a line (in math we use a singular capital letter to represent points)

(D. ΔABC) is not the right answer because the Δ sign lets us know that the answer represents a triangle, not a line.

Therefore, the only option left is C. [tex]\frac{}{AB}[/tex]

Find the value of cos 28°​cos 62°​– sin 28°​sin 62°​

Answers

Answer:

cos 28°​cos 62°​– sin 28°​sin 62°​ = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

From one of the trigonometric identities stated as follows;

cos(A+B) = cosAcosB - sinAsinB             -----------------(i)

We can apply such identity to solve the given expression.

Given:

cos 28°​cos 62°​– sin 28°​sin 62°​

Comparing the given expression with the right hand side of equation (i), we see that;

A = 28°

B = 62°

∴ Substitute these values into equation (i) to have;

⇒ cos(28°+62°) = cos28°cos62° - sin28°sin62°

Solve the left hand side.

⇒ cos(90°) = cos28°cos62° - sin28°sin62°

⇒ 0 = cos28°cos62° - sin28°sin62°     (since cos 90° = 0)

Therefore,

cos28°cos62° - sin28°sin62° = 0
