A wire 15 centimeters long is cut into two pieces. The longer piece is 3 centimeters longer than
the shorter piece. Find the length of the shorter piece of wire.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the length of the 2 pieces = L and S

Let L = the longer piece and S = the shorter piece

A wire 26 cm is cut into 2 pieces.  This equates to......L + S = 26

The longer piece is 6 cm longer than the shorter piece.  This equates to.....L = 6 + S.  Substitute this equation into the first one, you get

L + S = 26

6 + S + S = 26

2S = 20

S = 20/2 = 10 cm

L = 6 + S = 6 + 10 = 16 cm

To confirm, L + S = 26

16 + 10 = 26!

Answers

Answer:

  √145 ≈ 12.04

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the space diagonal is the root of the sum of the squares of the prism edge lengths:

  d² = a² +b² +c² = 6² +3² +10² = 145

  d = √145 ≈ 12.04 . . . inches

__

The face diagonal is found using the Pythagorean theorem in the usual way:

  f² = a² + b²

The space diagonal is the hypotenuse of the right triangle whose sides are the face diagonal and the remaining edge:

  d² = f² +c²

  d² = a² +b² +c²

To prepare for a party, Mark buys a small bunch of balloons for $6.00 and gift bags that cost $5.15 each. He spends a total of
$72.95 on the balloons and a gift bag for each person invited to the party. Write and solve an equation to find x, the number of
people Mark invited to the party

Answers

Answer: [tex]72.95 =6.00+5.15x[/tex]  , Required equation

The number of  people Mark invited to the party = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

Total amount spent = (Price of bunch of ballons)+(cost per gift) x (Number of persons)

Given: Total amount spent =$72.95 , Price of bunch of ballons =$6.00 ,

cost per gift =$5.15

thus,

[tex]72.95 =6.00+5.15x[/tex]  , Required equation

To solve , first

subtract 6 from both sides, we get

[tex]66.95=5.15x\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{66.95}{5.15}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=13[/tex]

The number of  people Mark invited to the party = 13

Answers

Answer:

She can choose her electives in 20 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

The order in which she chooses the courses is not important, which means that the combinations formula is used to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

How many ways can she choose her electives?

3 electives from a set of 6. So

Step-by-step explanation:

6 is a power. So both C and D are wrong because 6 is being treated as an ordinary integer.

So the answer must be either A or B.

B is not correct because to move an expression from the denominator to the numerator changes the sign in the base (which is m in this  question).

A is correct. the power is changed from 6 in the denominator to -6 in the numerator. m is shifted to the numerator as well.

Answer:

  B.  (-5, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

That point is ...

  A + 1/5(B - A)

  = (-7, -4) + 1/5(3 -(-7), 6 -(-4)) = (-7, -4) +1/5(10, 10)

  = (-7, -4) +(2, 2) = (-5, -2)

The point (-5, -2) is 1/5 of the way from A to B.

On a particular game show, there are 8 covered buckets and 2 of them contain a ball.
To win the game, a contestant must select both buckets that contain a ball. Find the
probability that a contestant wins the game if he/she gets to select 4 of the buckets.

Answers

Answer:

0.2143 = 21.43% probability that a contestant wins the game if he/she gets to select 4 of the buckets.

Step-by-step explanation:

The buckets are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x sucesses is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of sucesses.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

In this question:

8 covered buckets, so N = 8.

4 buckets are selected, so n = 4.

2 contain a ball, which means that k = 2.

Find the probability that a contestant wins the game if he/she gets to select 4 of the buckets.

This is P(X = 2). So

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = h(2,8,4,2) = \frac{C_{2,2}*C_{6,2}}{C_{8,2}} = 0.2143[/tex]

0.2143 = 21.43% probability that a contestant wins the game if he/she gets to select 4 of the buckets.

Select the correct answer.

  d) CAD, DAB

  f) ABD

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Any of the letters on lines going through point D could be used to name an angle with DC as one side. (Letters s and C would name an angle of measure zero, so might not be of interest.)

  ∠ADC has side DC

__

b) Any angle name with B in the middle will have B as its vertex.

  ∠ABD is an angle with vertex B

__

c) Ray CE is coincident with ray CD, so ...

  ∠ACE is another name for ∠ACD

__

d) Adjacent angles share a side, typically between the two angles. A linear pair of angles will be adjacent angles.

  ∠BAD and ∠CAD are adjacent angles

__

e) In order to properly name a pair of vertical angles, we need to be able to name two sets of opposite rays that share end points. Opposite rays emanate from points C and D, but no named points are seen outboard of those intersections. If we use 'm' as the name of a point on line m, then we can say a pair of vertical angles is ...

  CDm and BDA are two vertically opposite angles

__

f) The supplement to EBD will be the other angle that makes a linear pair with angle EBD. It is defined using point A on the ray opposite ray BE.

  ∠ABD is the supplement of ∠EBD

Lisa's shop sells 5 quarts of ice cream each day. How much is this in pints?

Answers

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

We know there are 5 quarts.

There are 2 pints for each quart.

This can be though of as a ratio of:

2 : 1

There are 5 quarts, which is 5 times bigger than the ratio of 1.

So this means we need to mutliply both sides of the ratio by 5, to make the quarts equivelent to 5:

2*5 : 1*5

=

10 : 5

So for every 5 quarts there are 10 pints.

Hope this helps!

Solve the triangle.
B = 36°, a = 41, c = 17 (5 points)

Answers

Answer:

b = 29.0, A = 123.9°, C = 20.1°

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  b = 29.0; A = 123.9°, C = 20.1°

Step-by-step explanation:

The given angle lies between the given sides, so the Law of Cosines is the appropriate relation.

  b² = a² +c² -2ac·cos(B)

  b² = 1681 +289 -1394cos(36°) ≈ 842.2303

  b ≈ √842.2303 ≈ 29.021

__

The Law of Sines can be used to find angle C:

  sin(C)/c = sin(B)/b

  C = arcsin(c/b·sin(B)) = arcsin(17/29.021×sin(36°))

  C ≈ 20.1°

  A = 180° -36° -20.1° = 123.9°

The remaining side and angles are ...

  b ≈ 29.0; A ≈ 129.9°; C ≈ 20.1°

_____

Additional comment

By choosing to find the smaller angle C first, we avoid having to deal with the ambiguity associated with the arcsine when the angle is greater than 90°.

x = 63

x and y sum to 90°

x + y = 90

63 + y = 90 ( subtract 63 from both sides )

y = 27

Answer: x=63 y= 27
