A building contractor estimated the cost of construction on a house would be between
$235.000 and $297,000. He has already spent $164,000. How much more can he spend
and remain within his budget?
Help please

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  $133,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The upper end of the contractor's budget is $297,000. If he has already spent $164,000, he can spend as much as ...

  $297,000 -164,000 = $133,000

without exceeding his budget.

He can spend $133,000 more and remain within budget.

Additional comment

Of course, he'd like to come in at the low end of the cost range, so would be very happy to spend only $71,000 more.

A blueprint for a building includes a rectangular room that measures 3 inches long and 5.5 inches wide. The scale for the blueprint says that 1 inch on the blueprint is equivalent to 10 feet in the actual building. What are the dimensions of this rectangular room in the actual building? Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer: 30 feet by 55 feet

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

The blueprints say that 1 inch represents 10 feet. This means we can form the equation below

1 inch = 10 feet

Of course 10 feet is much larger than 1 inch, so they cannot be actually equal to one another, but it helps tie together the two quantities. And it also allows us to multiply both sides by 3 to get

3 inches = 30 feet

So 3 inches on paper means we have 30 feet in real life.

Similarly,

1 inch = 10 feet

5.5 inches = 55 feet (multiply both sides by 5.5)

The 3 inch by 5.5 inch rectangle on paper corresponds to a 30 feet by 55 feet rectangle in real life.

----------------

In short, you multiply each given dimension by 10

3 inches goes to 3*30 = 30 feet

5.5 inches goes to 5.5*10 = 55 feet

Donalita ate 5 out of every 7 candies in a jar. If she ate 25 candies, what fraction represents the number of candies she ate over the total number of candies?

Answer:

25/35

Step-by-step explanation:

5 times 7 equals 35 and that means that this is the denominator because that is our total amount.

5 times 5 equals 25 and that makes it the numerator because that is what is being taken out of 5 jars

About how many ants would it take to wrap around the earth

Answers

Answer:

Ten billion

Step-by-step explanation:

There would around 16×10⁻¹⁰ ants to wrap around the earth.

What is circumference?

Circumference is the distance around a circle., basically it is the perimeter of the circle.

Given that, an average sized ant is about 4×10⁻³ meter long the circumference of the earth is about 4×10⁻⁷ meters, we are asked to find the number of ants that would it take to wrap around earth,

To find the same, we will multiply the size of ants to the circumference of the earth,

So, 4×10⁻³ × 4×10⁻⁷

= 16×10⁻¹⁰

Hence, there would around 16×10⁻¹⁰ ants to wrap around the earth.

A camping group began with 240 pounds of food and each day consumed about 12 pounds after how many days did they have 180 pounds left does anyone know step by step ?

Answers

240-180=60 so 60 divided by 12= 5 so it took 5 days

Answer:

Five days

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to find out how much food they ate:

240 - 180 = 60

Now, we have to find out the number of days they would take to eat 60 pounds of food. We can do that by dividing:

60/12 = 5

They took five days to have 180 pounds leftover.

. Denise has multiplied (2r – 3)(2r + 3) to get 4r2 – 9. After looking at her work, Hyder says her solution must be incorrect because multiplying two binomials will always produce a trinomial. Which student is correct? Explain the error to the incorrect student. HELP ME PLEASE NEED IT IN TIME THANKS.

Answer:

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 4r² – 9

Denise answer is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the methods of solving the given equation [(2r – 3)(2r + 3)] is the FOIL method

Using the FOIL method (Used for multiplying binomials)

F stands for first

O stands for outer

I stands for inner

L stands for last

In this method, it means we will first multiply the first terms followed by multiplying the outer term, then multiplying the inner terms and finally, the last terms.

So, for the equation  (2r – 3)(2r + 3)

First : (2r)(2r) = 4r²

Outer : (2r)(+3) = 6r

Inner : (–3)(2r) =  – 6r

Last :  (–3)(+3) =  – 9

Adding the results we get

4r² + 6r – 6r – 9 (+6r and – 6r cancels out)

= 4r² – 9

∴ (2r – 3)(2r + 3) = 4r² – 9

Hence, Denise answer is correct

Answers

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

given the expression (3³)² = n⁶, we are to find the value of n.

To do that we will apply one of the laws of indices shown

[tex](a^m)^n = a^{mn}[/tex]

Applying the law to the question

(3³)² = n⁶

[tex]3^{3*2} = n^6\\\\[/tex]

[tex]3^6 = n^6\\\\[/tex]

Since the power of both values at both sides are equal, they will cancel out to give;

[tex]3 = n[/tex]

Hence the value of n is 3

its 2

Answers

Answer:  see proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the following Power Reducing Identities:

[tex]\cos^2 A = \dfrac{1}{2}(1 + \cos 2A)\\\\\sin^2 A = \dfrac{1}{2}(1 - \cos 2A)[/tex]

Use the following Product to Sum Identity:

[tex]\cos A\cdot \cos B=\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg[\cos(A+B)+\cos(A-B)\bigg][/tex]

Proof LHS → RHS

[tex]\text{LHS:}\qquad \qquad \qquad \cos^2\beta\cdot \sin^4\beta\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad =\cos^2\beta\cdot \sin^2\beta\cdot \sin^2 \beta[/tex]

[tex]\text{Power Reducing:}\qquad \dfrac{1}{2}\bigg(1+\cos 2\beta\bigg)\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg(1-\cos 2\beta\bigg)\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg(1-\cos 2\beta\bigg)\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad \quad =\dfrac{1}{8}(1+\cos 2\beta)(1-\cos 2\beta)(1-\cos 2\beta)[/tex]

[tex]\text{Expand:}\qquad \qquad \dfrac{1}{8}\bigg(1-\cos 2\beta-\cos^2 2\beta+\cos^3 2\beta\bigg)\\\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad =\dfrac{1}{8}\bigg(1-\cos 2\beta-\cos^2 2\beta+\cos^2 2\beta \cdot \cos \2\beta\bigg)[/tex]

[tex]\text{Power Reducing:}\qquad \dfrac{1}{8}\bigg(1-\cos 2\beta -\dfrac{1}{2}(1+\cos 4\beta)+\dfrac{1}{2}(1+\cos 4\beta)\cos 2\beta\bigg)\\\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad =\dfrac{1}{16}\bigg(2-2\cos 2\beta -1-\cos 4\beta +\cos 2\beta +\cos 4\beta \cdot \cos 2\beta \bigg)\\\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad =\dfrac{1}{16}\bigg(1-\cos 2\beta -\cos 4\beta+\cos 4\beta \cdot \cos 2\beta \bigg)[/tex]

[tex]\text{Product to Sum:}\quad \dfrac{1}{16}\bigg(1-\cos 2\beta -\cos 4\beta +\dfrac{1}{2}[\cos(4\beta+2\beta)+\cos (4\beta-2\beta)]\bigg)\\\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad =\dfrac{1}{32}\bigg(2-2\cos 2\beta -2\cos 4\beta +\cos 6\beta +\cos 2\beta\bigg)\\\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad =\dfrac{1}{32}\bigg(\cos 6\beta-2\cos 4\beta -\cos 2\beta +2 \bigg)[/tex]

[tex]\text{LHS=RHS:}\\ \dfrac{1}{32}\bigg(\cos 6\beta-2\cos 4\beta -\cos 2\beta +2 \bigg)=\dfrac{1}{32}\bigg(\cos 6\beta-2\cos 4\beta -\cos 2\beta +2 \bigg)[/tex]

What rewrite 4/6 : 1/3 as a unit rate

Answers

Answer:

unit rate is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that if we multiply both '1' and '3' in 1/3 by 2, we get:

4/6 : 2/6,

which reduces to 4/2, or 2, which is the desired unit rate.

Answer:

The answer is 2:1

Step-by-step explanation:

what is a unit rate?

A unit rate means a rate for one of something. We write this as a ratio with a denominator of one. For example, if you ran 70 yards in 10 seconds, you ran on average 7 yards in 1 second. Both of the ratios, 70 yards in 10 seconds and 7 yards in 1 second, are rates, but the 7 yards in 1 second is a unit rate.

When writing a unit rate the denominator is always 1

If you want to obtain a unit rate you divide both quantities by the second one.

Write an equation in point-slope form for a line that passes through the given set of points.
(-2, - 4) and (1, 8)

Answers

First off, we need the slope

[tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{8-(-4)}{1-(-2)}[/tex]

That leaves you with

12/3 = 4

point-slope form: y-y1 = m ( x - x1)

So...

y - (-4) = 4 ( x - (-2))

y + 4 = 4 (x + 2)

y + 4 = 4x + 8

Now subtract 4 from both sides of the equation

y = 4x +4

Apply tan:                  tan A = tan(π - (B + C))

Simplify:                               = - tan (B + C)

[tex]\text{Sum Identity:}\qquad \qquad \qquad =-\bigg(\dfrac{\tan B+\tan C}{1-\tan B\cdot \tan C}\bigg)[/tex]

Evaluate f(x)=12 for the function f(x)=5(x-3)+17

Answers

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function;

f(x) = 5(x-3) + 17

And f(x) = 12

Thus;

5(x-3) + 17 = 12

Expanding the bracket gives;

5x - 15 + 17 = 12

5x + 2 = 12

5x = 12 - 2

5x = 10

x = 10/2

x = 5

Thus,for f(x) = 12, x has to be 5

The perimeter of the rectangle and the triangle shown are the same. Write an equation to represent this situation, and solve for x. Then, find the perimeter of each shape.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a polygon = Sum of all sides of the polygon

Perimeter of the given rectangle = 2[(5x - 2) + (3x - 0.5)]

                                                      = 2[8x - 2.5]

                                                      = (16x - 5)

Perimeter of the given triangle = (2x + 3) + (2x + 3) + (10x - 5)

                                                   = 14x + 1

Since perimeter of the rectangle and triangle are same, equation will be

(16x - 5) = (14x + 1)

16x - 14x = 5 + 1

2x = 6

x = 3

Perimeter = (16x - 5)

                 = 48 - 5

                 = 43 units
