Josh works for a construction company that uses 150 pounds of gravel for each driveway they pour. He can buy a dump truck load with 30,000 pounds of gravel or a pick-up truck load with 2,500 pounds. Which amount should he buy so that no gravel is left after all of the driveways are poured and why?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Josh should by the dump truck with 30,000 pounds of gravel in it

Step-by-step explanation:

the easiest way to find this out is divide 30,000 and 2,500 by 150 and if the answer is a whole number, then you know that is the correct answer.

30,000/150 = 200

2,500/150 = 16.6666666666666

Find the measure of angles 3 and 4

Answers

Answer:  3 =92

               4 = 88

Step-by-step explanation: because angle 4 = 180-42+46 = 92 and angle 3 is 180-92 = 88

Answer:

∠3=88 , ∠4=92

Step-by-step explanation:

∠4 + 42° + 46° = 180° (angle sum property of a triangle)

∠4 + 88° = 180°

∠4 = 180° - 88°

∠4 = 92

∠3 + ∠4 = 180° (linear pair)

∠3 + 92° = 180°

∠3 = 180° - 92°

∠3 = 88°

Your school wants to test the fire alarm system during the two hour period between 9:00 a.M. And 11:00 a.M. The probability of testing the fire alarm during this period is uniformly distributed that is X∼U(0,120). Find the probability that you have to wait more than 30 minutes, that is, find P(X>30).

Answers

Answer:

The probability is [tex]P(X>30)=0.75[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the probability of testing the fire alarm during this period is uniformly distributed that is [tex]X[/tex] ~ [tex]U(0,120)[/tex].

We need to find [tex]P(X>30)[/tex]

Given a continuous random variable [tex]X[/tex] with distribution :

[tex]X[/tex] ~ [tex]U(a,b)[/tex] , where ''[tex]a[/tex]'' and ''[tex]b[/tex]'' are real numbers

The probability density function is :

[tex]f_{X}(x)=\frac{1}{b-a}[/tex]    if x ∈ (a,b)

[tex]f_{X}(x)=0[/tex]  if x ∉ (a,b)

In the exercise we have [tex]X[/tex] ~ [tex]U(0,120)[/tex] , therefore the probability density function is :

[tex]f_{X}(x)=\frac{1}{120}[/tex] if x ∈ (0,120)

[tex]f_{X}(x)=0[/tex] if x ∉ (0,120)

If we want to find [tex]P(X>30)[/tex] we need to perform the integral

[tex]\int\limits^i_d {f_{X}(x)} \, dx[/tex]

Where [tex]d=30[/tex] and ''[tex]i[/tex]'' represents + ∞

Now, given that [tex]f_{X}(x)[/tex] is 0 when x ∉ (0,120), we will need to integrate between 30 and 120 to find the probability.

If we perform this integral ⇒

[tex]\int\limits^e_d {\frac{1}{120}} \, dx[/tex]

Where [tex]d=30[/tex] and [tex]e=120[/tex] ⇒

[tex]\int\limits^e_d {\frac{1}{120}} \, dx=\frac{3}{4}=0.75[/tex]

100 pointsssss!!
what are the pointsss???? Graph the function.

f(x)=−15x+4

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I'd suggest you find the two intercepts and draw a line through them.

y-intercept:  value of y when x = 0.  Here, f(0) = -15(0) + 4, so the y intercept is the point (0, 4).

x-intercept:  value of x when y = 0.  Letting f(x) = y = 0, we get

0 = -15x + 4, so that 15x = 4, and x = 4/15.  The x-intercept is (4/15, 0).

Plot the points (0, 4) and (4/15, 0) and draw a line thru them.

your graph would look like this :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtracting 2 puts the equation in standard form:

The product of the solutions is the ratio of the constant term to the leading coefficient: -3/2.

For solutions -3/2 and 'p', we have ...

Points X and Z are on a number line, and point Y partitions

line XZ into two parts so that the ratio of the length of line

segment XY to the length of line segment YZ is 5:7. The

coordinate of X is 0.4, and the coordinate of Y is 5.8. What

is the coordinate of Z?

Answers

Answer:

The coordinate of [tex]Z[/tex] is 13.36.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the statement, we have the following information:

[tex]\frac{XY}{XZ} = \frac{5}{12}[/tex] (1)

[tex]\frac{YZ}{XZ} = \frac{7}{12}[/tex] (2)

[tex]X = 0.4[/tex] (3)

[tex]Y = 5.8[/tex] (4)

From (2), we have the following expression:

[tex]YZ = \frac{7}{12}\cdot XZ[/tex]

[tex]Y-Z =\frac{7}{12}\cdot (X-Z)[/tex]

[tex]Y - Z = \frac{7}{12}\cdot X -\frac{7}{12}\cdot Z[/tex]

[tex]Y-\frac{7}{12}\cdot X = Z-\frac{7}{12}\cdot Z[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5}{12}\cdot Z = Y-\frac{7}{12}\cdot X[/tex]

[tex]5\cdot Z = 12\cdot Y-7\cdot X[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{12}{5}\cdot Y-\frac{7}{5}\cdot X[/tex] (5)

If we know that [tex]Y = 5.8[/tex] and [tex]X = 0.4[/tex], then the coordinate of [tex]Z[/tex] is:

[tex]Z = \frac{12}{5}\cdot (5.8)-\frac{7}{5}\cdot (0.4)[/tex]

[tex]Z = 13.36[/tex]

The coordinate of [tex]Z[/tex] is 13.36.

A rectangle has a length of 31 inches less than 3 times its width. If the area of the rectangle is 984 square inches, find the length of the rectangle.

Answers

Answer:

41 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Area of a rectangle is ;

A = L × W

L = Length

W = Width

A rectangle has a length of 31 inches less than 3 times its width.

L = 3W - 31

If the area of the rectangle is 984 square inches, find the length of the rectangle

Hence,

984 = (3W - 31) × W

984 = 3W² - 31W

Hence

3W² - 31W - 984

3W(W - 24) + 4(W - 24) = 0

(3W + 41)(W - 24) = 0

W - 24 = 0

W = 24 inches

We have to find the Length

L = 3W - 31

L = 3(24) - 31

L = 72 - 31

L = 41 inches

The Length = 41 inches

The Length of the rectangle is 41 inches

First term, a = 24
common difference, d = 21-24 = -3
let the number of terms to get sum 78 is n.

S_n=78\\ \\ \Rightarrow \frac{n}{2}(2a+(n-1)d)=78\\ \\ \Rightarrow \frac{n}{2}(2 \times 24+(n-1)(-3))=78\\ \\ \Rightarrow n(48-3n+3)=78 \times 2\\ \\ \Rightarrow -3n^2+51n-156=0\\ \\ \Rightarrow 3n^2-51n+156=0

The area of a rectangular park is same as area of a square park. If the length
of the rectangular park is 24.5 m and the side length of the square park is 14m,
find the breadth of the rectangular park?

Answers

Answer:

8m

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

length of rectangle= 24.5m

let the width be x

width of square= 14m

let the length be x

Step two:

we know that the area of a rectangle is

Ar= Length * width

Ar=24.5*x-----------1

Also, the area of the square is

As= Length * width

for square L=W

As= 14*14-----------------2

As=196m^2

equating 1 and 2 we have

14*14=24.5x

196=24.5x

divide both sides by 24.5

x=196/24.5

x=8m

The Breadth/width of the rectangular park is 8m

Answers

Answer:

distance from Houston to Galveston in  kilometers will be: 80km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The distance from Houston to  Galveston is about 50 miles.

i.e.

Kilometers in 1 Mile = 1.6 km

As the distance from Houston to  Galveston is about 50 miles, so

The distance from Houston to Galveston in  kilometers will be:

50(1.6) = 80   ∵ Kilometers in 1 Mile = 1.6 km

Therefore,

The distance from Houston to Galveston in  kilometers will be: 80km
