Answer 1

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

-7-5=-12

-12×2=-24

-7+1=-6

-6×4=-24

-24=-24

Answer 2

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x - 5) = 4(x + 1)

Multiply the parenthesis by the outside numbers (simplify).

2x - 10 = 4x + 4

Combine like terms (add 20 to both sides, and subtract 2x).

0 = 2x + 14

Subtract 14 from both sides of the equation.

2x = - 14

Divide both sides of the equation by 2.

x = -7

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions :)

Lucy has a bag of marbles. She shares one third of them with Carol, keeping one quarter for herself. Amrita joins them, so Lucy gives the rest of the marbles to her. If Carol has seven more marbles than Lucy, how many does Amrita have?

PLEASE TELL HOW YOU GOT THE ANSWER!!

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L = Lucy, C = Carol and A = Arita , x = Total amount of marbles

Lucy shares 1/3 with Carol and keeps 1/4 for herself.

This means that Carol has 1/3 of the total amount of marbles, Lucy has 1/4 of the total amount of marbles.

C = 1/3x

L = 1/4x

We are also told that Carol has 7 more marbles than Lucy

C = L + 7

Since C = 1/3x  and L = 1/4x you can sub these into the above equation and you get:

1/3x = 1/4x + 7

Subtract 1/4x from both sides

1/3x - 1/4x = 7

1/12x = 7

Multiply both sides by 12 to find x.

x = 7 times 12 = 84 (Total amount of marbles = 84)

Amrita gets the remaining number of marbles.

A = x - C - L

A = 84 - 1/3 (84) - 1/4 (84)

A = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

So every triangles angles will add up to 180 degrees no matter the triangle. Now a circle is 360 and a line is 180. Look at the line that A and C are on this line equals 180. So angle c and d added together make 180 and angles a b and c added together make 180. so if a+b+c = c+d then a+b=c. I hope thaqtmakes sense.

Katie wants to buy a bracelet. She only has $30 to spend. She has found a bracelet with a regular price of $45 and a discount of 35%. If the sales tax is 7%, will she have enough to buy the bracelet? If so, how much money will Katie have left? If not, how much more money will she need?

Answers

Given :

Money Katie has, M = $30.

She has found a bracelet with a regular price of $45 and a discount of 35%.

The sales tax is 7%.

To Find :

Will she have enough to buy the bracelet.

Solution :

Original price = $45 .

Price after discount = $( 45 - 45×0.35) = $29.25 .

Selling Price = $( 29.25 + 29.25×0.07 ) = $31.2975 .

Since, selling price is greater than $30.

Money needed = $( 31.2975 - 30 ) = $1.2975 .

Therefore, Katie will not buy the bracelet.

Patel found an incorrect quotient and checked his work using multiplication incorrectly.

Step-by-step explanation:

After completing the fraction division 8 divided by StartFraction 1 Over 6 EndFraction, Patel used the multiplication below to check his work.

Correct calculation

8 ÷ 1/6

= 8 × 6/1

= 48

Check:

1/6 * 48

= 48 / 6

= 8

Patel's calculation

1/48 * 6

= 1/48 * 6/1

= 6/48

= 1/8

Suppose scores on exams in statistics are normally distributed with an unknown population mean. A sample of 26 scores is given below. Use Excel to find a 90% confidence interval for the true mean of statistics exam scores. Round your answers to one decimal place and use increasing order.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula for calculating confidence interval

CI = xbar±z×S/√n

xbar is the mean of the sample

z is the z score at 90% = 1.645

S is the standard deviation of the score

n is the sample size = 26

Since we are not given the scores, we can assume the values of our mean and standard Deviation

Let xbar = 38

S = 3.0

Substitute the given values into the formula

CI = 38±(1.645×3.0/√26)

CI = 38±(1.645×3.0/5.099)

CI = 38±(1.645×0.5884)

CI = 38±0.9678

CI = (38-0.9678, 38+0.9678)

CI = (38.0322, 38.9678)

CI = (38.0, 38.9)

Hence the 90% confidence interval for the true mean of statistics exam scores is 38.0≤p≤38.9

Note that the we will need to generate the mean and standard deviation from the data but since we are not given the required data, we had to assume the value we used in calculation.

Two maps are made of a park. The scale from the park to map A is 30 mi to 6 cm. The length of Great Oaks Trail is 4.5 cm on map A. The scale from the same park to map B is 24 mi to 3 cm. The length of Salamander Trail is 3.5 cm on map B. 1. What is the actual length (in miles) of Salamander Trail?

Answers

Answer:

The actual length of Salamander Trail is 28 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the actual length of salamander trail.

From the question, we are told that a a distance of 3cm on the map B is 24 miles in the park

So now, we have length of 3.5 cm and we want to calculate what is the actual length in miles

From the question on map B;

3 cm = 24 miles

so

3.5 cm = x miles

x * 3 = 24 * 3.5

x = (24 * 3.5)/3

x = 8 * 3.5 = 28 miles

Is 25 x 10 to the power of 0 in scientific​ notation? If​ not, explain. Use pencil and paper. Explain why 10 is used as the base in the second scientific notation factor.

Answers

Answer:

a) Scientific notation is written as a unit digit, that can have other digits after the decimal place, multiplied by 10 to the power of n, where n can be any integer number.

Then 25x10^0 is not scientific notation, because there are two digits at the left of the decimal point.

The scientific notation would be:

2.5x10^1

b) Why is this useful?

Because we divide all our measures in powers of 10.

For example, you know that 1 meter  = 100c

But we can also write this as:

1m = 1.0*10^3 cm.

The use of scientific notation comes useful because we can have a fast read of the dimensions of our measure, and in another hand, is way easier work with the 10 as a base when we solve equations.

Diana is buying plates and cups for a party. She wants the same number of each. Plates are sold in packs of eight and cups are sold in packs of 12. What is the least number of plates and cups she can buy? How many packs of plates? How many packs of cups? Explain how you know.

Answers

Answer:

The least number of plates and cups she can buy is 24

She will buy 3 packs of plates

She will buy 2 packs of cup

Step-by-step explanation:

Plates = 8 per pack

Cups = 12 per pack

Find the Lowest common multiple of 8 and 12

8 = 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80

12 = 24, 36, 48, 60, 72

What is the least number of plates and cups she can buy?

The Lowest common multiple of 8 and 12 is 24

The least number of plates and cups she can buy is 24

How many packs of plates?

Packs of plates = 24 plates / 8 per pack

= 3 packs

She will buy 3 packs of plates

How many packs of cups?

Packs of cups = 24 / 12 per pack

= 2 packs

She will buy 2 packs of cup
