During a recent beetle infestation, two-thirds of the ash trees in the area were destroyed. If 130 trees were destroyed, how many ash trees were originally in the area?

Answers

Answer 1
195.

set this up as a proportion with 2/3 = 130/x
130 x 3 = 390
390 / 2 = 195
Answer 2

Answer:

195 Trees

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 is just 2 of 3 parts

2 parts of the trees is 130,

so divide 130 by 2, and that's 65.

Since you know 65 + 65 is the same as 2 out of 3

Then just add 65 one more time to equal 195.

Since, 65*3 is the same as saying 1 * 3 parts

130 is equal to 2/3, so 195 is equal to 3/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rocket leaves the surface of Earth at time t=0 and travels straight up from the surface. The height, in feet, of the rocket above the surface of Earth is given by y(t), where t is measured in seconds for 0≤t≤600. Values of y(t) for selected values of t are given in the table above. Of the following values of t, at which value would the speed of the rocket most likely be greatest based on the data in the table?

(1) t=100

(2) t=200

(3)t=300

(4) t=400

Answers

Answer:

Remember that:

Speed = distance/time.

Then we can calculate the average speed in any segment,

Let's make a model where the average speed at t = t0 can be calculated as:

AS(t0) = (y(b) - y(a))/(b - a)

Where b is the next value of t0, and a is the previous value of t0. This is because t0 is the middle point in this segment.

Then:

if t0 = 100s

AS(100s) = (400ft - 0ft)/(200s - 0s) =   2ft/s

if t0 = 200s

AS(200s) = (1360ft - 50ft)/(300s - 100s) = 6.55 ft/s

if t0 = 300s

AS(300s) = (3200ft - 400ft)/(400s - 200s) =  14ft/s

if t0 = 400s

AS(400s) = (6250s - 1360s)/(500s - 300s) = 24.45 ft/s

So for the given options, t = 400s is the one where the velocity seems to be the biggest.

And this has a lot of sense, because while the distance between the values of time is constant (is always 100 seconds) we can see that the difference between consecutive values of y(t) is increasing.

Then we can conclude that the rocket is accelerating upwards, then as larger is the value of t, bigger will be the average velocity at that point.

Speed is simply the rate of change of distance over time.

The greatest speed is at [tex]t = 400[/tex]

To calculate the time of the greatest speed, we simply calculate the slope between each interval.

The slope (m) of a line is:

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{t_2 - t_1}[/tex]

When [tex]t = 100[/tex]

[tex](t_1,y_1) = (0,0)[/tex]

[tex](t_2,y_2) = (200,400)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]m = \frac{400-0}{200 -0}[/tex]

[tex]m= \frac{400}{200}[/tex]

[tex]m = 2[/tex]

When [tex]t = 200[/tex]

[tex](t_1,y_1) = (100,50)[/tex]

[tex](t_2,y_2) = (300,1360)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]m = \frac{1360-50}{300 -100}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{1310}{200}[/tex]

[tex]m = 6.55[/tex]

When [tex]t = 300[/tex]

[tex](t_1,y_1) = (200,400)[/tex]

[tex](t_2,y_2) = (400,3200)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]m = \frac{3200-400}{400 -200}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{2800}{200}[/tex]

[tex]m = 14[/tex]

When [tex]t = 400[/tex]

[tex](t_1,y_1) = (300,1360)[/tex]

[tex](t_2,y_2) = (500,6250)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]m = \frac{6250-1360}{500-300}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{4890}{200}[/tex]

[tex]m = 24.45[/tex]

From the above computation, the greatest speed (i.e. slope) is

[tex]m = 24.45[/tex]

The corresponding time at [tex]m = 24.45[/tex] is [tex]t = 400[/tex]

Hence, the greatest speed is at [tex]t = 400[/tex]

Answer:

The answer would be E.

The equivalent expression is 25 ÷ 5.

Option E is the correct answer.

What is an expression?

An expression contains one or more terms with addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

We always combine the like terms in an expression when we simplify.

We also keep all the like terms on one side of the expression if we are dealing with two sides of an expression.

Example.

1 + 3x + 4y = 7 is an expression.

3 + 4 is an expression.

2 x 4 + 6 x 7 – 9 is an expression.

33 + 77 – 88 is an expression.

We have,

25 x 1/5

= 25 x 1/5

= 5 x 5 x 1/5

= 5

Now,

1/25 x 5

= 1/5

1/25 x 1/5

= 1/125

1/25 ÷ 1/5

= 1/25 x 5

= 1/5

5 ÷ 25

= 5/25

= 1/5

25 ÷ 5

= 5

We see that,

25 x 1/5 and 25 ÷ 5 have the same value.

Thus,

The equivalent expression is 25 ÷ 5.

What is a complex number?

A complex number is the sum of a real number and an imaginary number.

The idea of a complex number has come by solving a quadratic equation that has root as negative under root.

If we solve x² + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = √(-1) which is called as iota(i).

The value of iota(i) is given as i = √(-1).

By the law of indices,

i¹² = (i²)⁶

⇒ (-1)⁶

Since the even exponents of a negative number give positive output thus  (-1)⁶ = 1.

Thus, i¹² = 1

Hence "The value of the given imaginary number i¹² will be 1".

YOUR QUESTION WASN'T CLEAR SO I GUESS THIS IS YOUR ANSWER IDF NOT SORRY

Answer:

You haven't attached a picture but this is what your line should look like

Step-by-step explanation:

For this equation you simply have to graph it.

First, you have to remember that these equations follow a formula: y=mx+b. m is the slope of you line and b is the y-intercept.

Next, you need to graph it. First, graph your b, in this case 2. You would go up 2 on you graph (graph (0,2)). Then, you would graph your slope which is 3.

Now, remember that slope equals y/x, so think of the number 3 being like 3/1. You would start at (0,2) and go up 3 points in the graph, then over 1 point (graph where you end up). You repeat that from each new point you make until you have enough points to create a straight line.

Question
Daniel is planning a 6-night road trip. It will cost $310 for transportation, $275 for food, and $70 per night for a hotel room.
He has $745 in savings and can earn $20 per hour tutoring. How many hours must he tutor to have enough money to pay
for the trip?

Answers

Answer:

13 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Daniel will incur the following costs:

Transportation : $310

Food : $275

Hotel : $70 per night for 6 nights = $70 x 6 = $420

his total cost  = $ (310 + 275 + 420) = $1005

it is given that he has $745 in savings: If he uses all his savings, it will reduce his total cost balance to $1005 - $745 = $260

hence he needs to make up the remaining $260 by tutoring for $20 per hour

number of hours to make up the $260

= $260 ÷ $20/hr

= 13 hours

There are 12 red pens, 20 blue pens and 5 black pens in a bag. What is the probability that you will pick a black pen? Round

Answers

Answer:

The probability of getting a black pen from the bag is 13.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the percentage probability that a black pen will be obtained from the bag, the following calculation must be performed:

12 + 20 + 5 = 37

37 = 100%

5 = X

(5 x 100) / 37 = X

500/37 = X

13.5 = X

Thus, it is determined that the totality of pens is 100%, and through a cross multiplication the percentage of the 5 black pens with respect to the total of pens is obtained.

Therefore, the probability of getting a black pen from the bag is 13.5%.

6/31. There are 6 black pens left and the red pen was removed, so the original sample size of 32 is reduced to 31.
