Nigel has 2 dogs. One eats 2 1/2 pounds of food each week. The other eats 1 3/8 pounds each week. Together how much food do the dogs eat in a week

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:  3 & 7/8  pounds

whole part = 3

fractional part = 7/8

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

Explanation:

1/2 = 4/8

So the mixed number 2 & 1/2 is the same as 2 & 4/8

Adding on 1 & 3/8 will mean the fractional portions add to 4/8+3/8 = 7/8 and the whole number portions add to 2+1 = 3

Overall, the total amount eaten is 3 & 7/8 pounds

Answer 2

Answer:

27 1/8 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

2.5 multiplied by 7 would be 17.5 and 1 and 3/8's by 7 would be 7 multiplied by 3 = 21/8 which would be 9 and 5/8's added up with the first 7 pounds

Work out the size of angle X ?

Answers

Answer:

x = 121°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ 1 + 115° = 180°

∠ 1 = 180 - 115

∠ 1 = 65°

∠ 2 + 304° = 360°

∠2 = 360 - 304

∠ 2 = 56°

∠ 1 + ∠ 2 + ∠ 3 = 180°

65° + 56 ° + ∠ 3 = 180°

∠3 = 180 - 65 - 56

∠ 3 = 59°

∠3 + x = 180°

59° + x = 180°

x = 180 - 59

x =  121 °

Answers

Answer: 2) 15 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the triangle is 15 square units if the triangle ABC with altitude CD, given A (-3, -4), B (-6, 2), C (0, 0), and D (-4, -2) which is correct option (2)

What is the distance between two points?

The distance between two points is defined as the length of the line segment between two places represents their distance. Most significantly, segments that have the same length are referred to as congruent segments and the distance between two places is always positive.

The formula of distance between two points is P(x₁, y₁) and Q(x₂, y₂) is given by: d (P, Q) = √ (x₂ – x₁)² + (y₂ – y₁) ².

Given that a triangle ABC with altitude CD.

The coordinates for the triangle are A (-3, -4), B (-6, 2), C (0, 0), and D (-4, -2)

Given that the distance between C and D will be the height of the triangle

Since, the distance between the points by using the distance formula:

= √ (x₂ – x₁)² + (y₂ – y₁) ².

height = √ (-4 – 0)² + (-2 – 0) ²

height = √20

base = √45

Area of triangle = (1/2)base x height

Area of triangle = (1/2)√20×√45

Area of triangle = (1/2)30

Area of triangle = 15 square units

Hence, the area of the triangle is 15 square units if the triangle ABC with altitude CD

We use the formula a^2+b^2=c^2. In this case, we substitute 8 and 15 into a and b.

8^2+15^2=c^2
64+225=289
Because it has to be squared, we take the square root of 289 which gives us the final answer of 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

180°- 95°= 85°

(95° is on a straight line, angles on a straight line adds up to 180° so 95° is being subtracted from 180°. Therefore the next angle in the triangle will be 85°)

To find <2

The triangles below are similar. Find the length of ED.

Answers

Answer:

ED = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

[tex]\frac{ED}{BA}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{EF}{BC}[/tex] , substitute values

[tex]\frac{ED}{9}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{18}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

18 ED = 108 ( divide both sides by 18 )

ED = 6

Use the function shown in the table to answer the questions below .

Answers

Answer:

a) -6

b) 3

c) Y = -6x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Pick two points and find rise/run = slope

rise y1 - y2 = 9 - 3 = 6

run x1 - x2 = -1 - 0 = -1

slope = 6 / -1 = -6

The y intercept is where x = 0 which is given in the table (0,3) so

y intercept = 3

Point slope form is y = mx + b , so

y = -6x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle is a right triangle, meaning it is a triangle with a right angle, this is indicated by the box around one of the angles. When given a right triangle, one can use the right triangle trigonometric ratios. These ratios describe the relationship between an angle in a right triangle, and the sides in a right triangle. Such ratios are as follows,

[tex]sin(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\\\\cos(\theta)=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}\\\\tan(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

Bear in mind that the way one names the sides, in the sense of (opposite or adjacent) will change based on the angle one uses to describe the triangle. However, the hypotenuse is the same no matter the angle, as the hypotenuse is the side opposite the right angle.

In this case, one is given one of the angles, and the side opposite the angle. One is asked to find the hypotenuse of the triangle. One can use the sine (sin) ratio to achieve this.

[tex]sin(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

Substitute,

[tex]sin(30)=\frac{7}{x}[/tex]

Inverse operations,

[tex]x=\frac{7}{sin(30)}[/tex]

Simplify,

Ms. Cortez was building doll houses to sell at a toy store. She had to spend $184 on tools before she could begin to work. Each doll house cast $17 to make. She planned to sell the doll houses for $29 each. How many doll houses did she need to sell to make a profit?

Answers

Answer:

A minimum of 16 dollhouses

Step-by-step explanation:

profit on each dollhouse= sp-cp= 29-17= $12

if we divide 184 by 12 we get abt 15.33, which means, she has to sell more than 15 Dollhouses to make a profit.

so the minimum number of dollhouses to be sold are 16

Answers

Answer:

Possible outcomes:

Black - Black

Black - Blue

Blue - Black

Blue - Blue

Probability of each outcome:

Black-Black:

14 out of 20, and then 9 out of 12. So

[tex]P_{BkBk} = \frac{14}{20} \times {9}{12} = \frac{14*9}{20*12} = \frac{126}{240}[/tex]

Black-Blue:

14 out of 20, then 3 out of 12. So

[tex]P_{BkBl} = \frac{14}{20} \times {3}{12} = \frac{14*3}{20*12} = \frac{42}{240}[/tex]

Less likely than black-black.

Blue - Black:

6 out of 20, then 9 out of 12. SO

[tex]P_{BlBk} = \frac{6}{20} \times {9}{12} = \frac{6*9}{20*12} = \frac{54}{240}[/tex]

More likely than black-blue, less likely than black-black.

Blue - Blue

6 out of 20, then 3 out of 12

[tex]P_{BlBl} = \frac{6}{20} \times {3}{12} = \frac{6*3}{20*12} = \frac{18}{240}[/tex]

Least likely of the outcomes.

Suppose cos(x)= -1/3, where π/2 ≤ x ≤ π. What is the value of tan(2x). EDGE
A.) -2√8/7
B.) -√8
C.) √8
D.) 2√8/7

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that:

[tex]\displaystyle \cos x = -\frac{1}{3}\text{ where } \pi /2 \leq x \leq \pi[/tex]

And we want to find the value of tan(2x).

Note that since x is between π/2 and π, it is in QII.

In QII, cosine and tangent are negative and only sine is positive.

We can rewrite our expression as:

[tex]\displaystyle \tan(2x)=\frac{\sin(2x)}{\cos(2x)}[/tex]

Using double angle identities:

[tex]\displaystyle \tan(2x)=\frac{2\sin x\cos x}{\cos^2 x-\sin^2 x}[/tex]

Since cosine relates the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse and we are given that cos(x) = -1/3, this means that our adjacent side is one and our hypotenuse is three (we can ignore the negative). Using this information, find the opposite side:

[tex]\displaystyle o=\sqrt{3^2-1^2}=\sqrt{8}=2\sqrt{2}[/tex]

So, our adjacent side is 1, our opposite side is 2√2, and our hypotenuse is 3.

From the above information, substitute in appropriate values. And since x is in QII, cosine and tangent will be negative while sine will be positive. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle \tan(2x)=\frac{2(2\sqrt{2}/3)(-1/3)}{(-1/3)^2-(2\sqrt{2}/3)^2}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]\displaystyle \tan(2x)=\frac{-4\sqrt{2}/9}{(1/9)-(8/9)}[/tex]

Evaluate:

[tex]\displaystyle \tan(2x)=\frac{-4\sqrt{2}/9}{-7/9} = \frac{4\sqrt{2}}{7}[/tex]

The final answer is positive, so we can eliminate A and B.

We can simplify D to:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{2\sqrt{8}}{7}=\frac{2(2\sqrt{2}}{7}=\frac{4\sqrt{2}}{7}[/tex]

So, our answer is D.

y cm = 504cm^2 / 18cm

A runs 25% faster than B and is able to give him a start of 7 metres to end a race in dead heat. What is the length of race?

Answers

Answer:

35 metres

Step-by-step explanation:

The question states that A runs 25% faster than B. This means that, for every 1 second that B runs, A runs 1.25 second

Assuming that the total length of the race, that we're looking for, is D. Then we can say that B made a total distance of D-7 meters, and A runs D.

time taken by A = [tex]\frac{D}{1.25}[/tex]

time taken by B = [tex]\frac{D-7}{1}[/tex]

equating both together, we have

[tex]\frac{D}{1.25}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{D-7}{1}[/tex]

1.25D  - 8.75 = D

1.25D - D = 8.75

0.25D = 8.75

D = 8.75/0.25

D = 35
