A brick layer can build a wall in 6 hours and his apprentice would need 16 hours to build the same wall. When they work together, the apprentice works 5 hours longer than the brick layer. How many hours does each work

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The brick layer builds ( 1 wall ) / ( 6 hrs )

That's the same as ( 1/6 wall ) / ( 1 hour )

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

The apprentice builds ( 1 wall ) / ( 16 hrs )

That's the same as ( 1/16 wall ) / ( 1 hour )

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

Let t = the time that the brick layer works

t + 5 = the timer the apprentice works

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

( brick layer's rate ) x ( brick layer's time ) +

( apprentice's rate ) x ( apprentice's time ) = 1

( 1 is the whole job )

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

(1/6) · t + (1/16) · (t + 5) = 1

Multiply both sides by 48

8t + 3t + 15 = 48

11t = 33

t = 3

t + 5 = 8

the brick layer works 3 hrs

The apprentice works 8 hrs

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

Check:

(1/6) · t + (1/16) · (t + 5) = 1

(1/6) · 3 + (1/16) · (3 + 5) = 1

1/2 + 1/2 = 1

OK

Answers

The length of the longest slide is 5 inches. he other two sides will be 4  inches in length.

Length of the longest slide

Isosceles triangle

Given:

Total length=13 inches

Hence:

AC=BC<AB

Let AC=BC=x-1 inches

AB=x inches

Thus:

x-1+(x-1)+x=13

3x-2=13

3x=13+2

3x=15

divide both side by 3x

x=15/3

x=5 inches

Hence:

What is the absolute value of the complex number -4-√2i?

D.18
PLEASE HELP

Answers

Answer:  Choice B.  3√2

This is the same as writing 3sqrt(2) or [tex]3\sqrt{2}[/tex]

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

Reason:

For any complex number of the form [tex]z = a+bi[/tex], the absolute value or magnitude of it is [tex]|z| = \sqrt{a^2+b^2}[/tex]

In this case, we have [tex]a = -4 \text{ and } b = -\sqrt{2}[/tex]

So,

[tex]|z| = \sqrt{a^2+b^2}\\\\|z| = \sqrt{(-4)^2+(-\sqrt{2})^2}\\\\|z| = \sqrt{16+2}\\\\|z| = \sqrt{18}\\\\|z| = \sqrt{9*2}\\\\|z| = \sqrt{9}*\sqrt{2}\\\\|z| = 3\sqrt{2}\\\\[/tex]

If we formed a segment with the endpoints [tex](0,0) \text{ and } (-4, -\sqrt{2} )[/tex], then that segment will have length of the value mentioned above.

He has already saved $45.50
He makes $9.25 an hour delivering pizza.
How many hours must Tyrone work to have at least
$100 saved?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract saved amount from required amount :

$100 - $45.50 $54.50

$54.50 / $9.255.89 ≅ 6

Tyrone must work at least 6 hours to have $100 saved.

The number of newly reported crime cases in a county in New York State is shown in the accompanying table, where x represents the number of years since 2014, and y represents number of new cases. Write the linear regression equation that represents this set of data, rounding all coefficients to the nearest tenth. Using this equation, estimate the calendar year in which the number of new cases would reach 579.

Answers

The linear regression equation that represents this data set is equal to y = 120.8x + 2,114.

How to write the linear regression equation?

First of all, we would determine the slope of the given data set by using this formula:

[tex]Slope = \frac{\sum (x-\bar x)(y-\bar y)}{\sum (x-\bar x)^2}[/tex]

For the sample mean (years), we have:

[tex]\bar x = \frac{0\;+\;1+\;2\;+\;3\;+4}{5} \\\\\bar x =\frac{15}{4} \\\\\bar x =3.75[/tex]

For the sample mean (cases), we have:

[tex]\bar y = \frac{904\;+\;900+\;833\;+\;837\;+754}{5} \\\\\bar y =\frac{4,228}{4} \\\\\bar y =1057[/tex]

The sums are given by:

∑(x - |x|) = (0 - 3.75) + (1 - 3.75) + (2 - 3.75) + (3 - 3.75) + (4 - 3.75)

∑(x - |x|) = - 3.75 - 2.75 - 1.75 - 0.75) + 0.25

∑(x - |x|) = -8.75.

∑(x - |x|)² = (-8.75)² = 76.5625.

∑(y - |y|) = (904 - 1057) + (900 - 1057) + (833 - 1057) + (837 - 1057) + (754 - 1057)

∑(y - |y|) = -153 - 157 - 224 - 220 - 303

∑(y - |y|) = -1,057‬.

∑(x - |x|)(y - |y|) = -8.75 × -1057

∑(x - |x|)(y - |y|) = 9,248.75.

Now, we can determine the slope:

Slope = 9,248.75/76.5625

Slope = 120.8‬.

Therefore, the equation is given by:

y = 120.8x + a

Next, we would find the value of a:

1057 = 120.8(-8.75) + a

a = 1057 + 1,057

a = 2,114.

Hence, the linear regression model is given by:

y = 120.8x + 2,114.

Since the new cases would reach 579, the calendar year would be calculated as follows:

579 = 120.8x + 2,114

120.8x = 579 - 2,114

120.8x = -1,535

x = -1,535/120.8

x = -12.71.

Year = 2014 + 12.71

Year = 2026.712027.

Answers

Answer:

x = 81

Steps:

It says that y ~ √x

We have points (9, 18) as a guide.

We can write y = f(x) = a√x +b

Use points (9, 18) as a guide

18 = a√9 +b

18 = 3a + b

One solution might be a = 6, which means f(x) = 6√x

Thus when y = 54,

54 = 6√x

9 = √x

81 = x

24, 32, 25, 27, 37, 29, 30, 30, 28, 31, 27, 23

Answers

Answer:  Choice D

The five number summary is

Min = 23Q1 = 26Median = 28.5Q3 = 30.5Max = 37

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

Further Explanation:

The original data set is {24, 32, 25, 27, 37, 29, 30, 30, 28, 31, 27, 23}

It sorts to {23, 24, 25, 27, 27, 28, 29, 30, 30, 31, 32, 37} when going from smallest to largest.

There are n = 12 items in this set. The median is found between slots 6 and 7 because n/2 = 12/2 = 6

Circle the items in slot 6 and slot 7 to highlight 28 and 29 in that order. The midpoint is (28+29)/2 = 57/2 = 28.5 which is the median.

Median = 28.5

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

Now break the set up into two pieces

L = {23, 24, 25, 27, 27, 28}

U = {29, 30, 30, 31, 32, 37}

L is the lower set below the median, U is the upper set above the median

The midpoint of L is (25+27)/2 = 26 and the midpoint of set U is (30+31)/2 = 30.5

This gives us Q1 = 26 and Q3 = 30.5 respectively

Q1 = first quartile

Q3 = third quartile

The min and max are simply the smallest and largest items of the set

min = 23

max = 37

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

We have this five number summary:

Min = 23Q1 = 26Median = 28.5Q3 = 30.5Max = 37

These five items directly determine the positioning of the box and whiskers. No extra info is needed.

The min and max handle the tips of the left and right whiskers if we don't have any outliers. In this case, we don't have outliers so we can ignore this aspect.

The Q1 and Q3 handle the left and right edges of the box

The median (aka Q2) is the vertical line inside the box. It doesn't have to be at the center of the box. It's simply anywhere inside.

With all this in mind, the best match is choice D

The tip of the left whisker is at 23The left edge of the box is at 26The vertical line inside the box is at 28.5The right edge of the box is at 30.5The tip of the right whisker is at 37

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

In other words, we can eliminate the following

A) Because the right edge of the box for choice A is at 31 when it should be at 30.5B) The tip of the right whisker is at 35 when it should be at 37C) The tip of the left whisker is at 21 when it should be at 23

Since A, B, and C are eliminated, the only thing left is choice D which matches all aspects of the five number summary above.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use long division to solve this

First place a 5 in the tens place, this means we are multiplying 5 by 50. This will subtract 250 from 280, leaving us with 30.

Next place a 6 in the ones place, this means we are multiplying 5 by 6. This will subtract 30 from 30, leaving us with 0.

This means we have found our answer of 56.

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, division is just saying "how many numbers would go into this number this many times?" We can break this problem down into 200/5 and 80/5. 200/5 is 40, and 80/5 is 16. 40+16 is 56, so the answer is 56.

4x + 5 + third side = 9x + 1

third side = 9x + 1 - ( 4x + 5 )

third side = 9x + 1 - 4x - 5

third side = 5x - 4

Answer: B) 5x - 4

Perimeter = Side + Side + Side

=> 9x + 1 (1)
=> x - 1 (2)

Adding 1 and 2, we get :-
