Options:
Who is right, and why?
a. Neither Kurt nor Maria is right, because 3,500 should be used instead of 3,600.
b. Kurt is right, because finding 1/5 of 3,600 is not a good way to approximate 21% of 3,585.
c. Maria is right, because finding 10% of 3,600 and multiplying the result by 2 is not a good way to approximate 21% of 3,585.
d. Both Kurt and Maria are right, because 3,585 should be rounded up to 3,600, and 21% of this amount can be approximated by either finding 10% of 3,600 and multiplying the result by 2 or by finding 1/5 of 3,600.
Answer:
d. Both Kurt and Maria are right, because 3,585 should be rounded up to 3,600, and 21% of this amount can be approximated by either finding 10% of 3,600 and multiplying the result by 2 or by finding 1/5 of 3,600.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Goal = 3585[/tex]
[tex]Collected = 21\%[/tex]
[tex]Kurt= 10\% * 3600 * 2[/tex]
[tex]Maria = \frac{1}{5} * 3600[/tex]
Required [Missing from the question]
Who is correct and why?
First, we calculate the actual amount collected.
[tex]Actual = Collected * Goal[/tex]
[tex]Actual = 21\% * 3585[/tex]
[tex]Actual = 752.85[/tex]
[tex]Actual = 753[/tex] --- approximate
Next, determine the estimate (round 3585 to 3600 and 21% to 20%)
[tex]Estimate = 20\% * 3600[/tex]
[tex]Estimate = 720[/tex]
Next, calculate Kurt and Maria's estimates
[tex]Kurt= 10\% * 3600 * 2[/tex]
[tex]Kurt = 720[/tex]
[tex]Maria = \frac{1}{5} * 3600[/tex]
[tex]Maria = 720[/tex]
Hence, Kurt and Maria are correct because of option (d)

Julio's family traveled 3 8 of the distance to his aunt's house on Saturday. They traveled 3 5 of the remaining distance on Sunday. What fraction of the total distance to his aunt's house was traveled on Sunday?
Answer: [tex]\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Julio traveled [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] of distance to his aunt's house on Saturday
they have traveled [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] of the remaining distance on Sunday
suppose the total distance is [tex]x[/tex]
Distance traveled on Saturday
[tex]\dfrac{3x}{8}[/tex]
Remaining distance is
[tex]x-\dfrac{3x}{8}=\dfrac{5x}{8}[/tex]
Distance traveled on Sunday
[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{5}\times \dfrac{5x}{8}=\dfrac{3x}{8}[/tex]
The fraction of distance traveled on Sunday is
[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{\frac{3x}{8}}{x}=\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex]
In a quiz contest, Mary answers 90% of the questions correctly without any additional clues from the quiz coordinator. The randomly generated numbers below simulate this situation.
The numbers 0 to 8 represent questions answered correctly without additional clues, and the number 9 represents questions that needed additional clues.
44 51 99 66 23
68 72 20 20 59
50 89 39 36 20
90 13 51 47 92
49 20 89 10 13
52 82 52 52 99
28 10 33 35 73
40 44 30 95 22
99 10 55 10 35
36 78 92 37 96
The estimated probability that it would take at least three questions for Mary to need additional clues is (_____)
The estimated probability that Mary needed additional clues to answer two consecutive questions is (_____)
To solve this problem, we should note that there are:
total questions = 100
questions answered correctly = 90
questions that needed additional clues = 10
1. The first question is to find the probability that in the third question, Mary would need additional clue. Therefore this implies that in the first and second questions, Mary would answer it correctly. Therefore:
Probability = (question 1 answered correctly) * (question 2 answered correctly) * (question 3 needed clue)
Probability = (90/100)*(89/99)*(10/98)
Probability = 0.08256 = 8.26%
2. The second question finds for the probability that two consecutive needs additional clue, therefore:
Probability = (question 1 needed clue) * (question 2 needed clue)
Probability = (10/100)*(9/99)
Probability = 9.1*10^-3 = 0.91%
Answer:
1. The estimated probability that it would take at least three questions for Mary to need additional clues is 0.24
2. The estimated probability that Mary needed additional clues to answer two consecutive questions is 0.06

Find the measure of line segment MK. K 8 I 7 J M 5 2x+1
Hello!
This is a problem about relating circle theorems to line lengths.
We can first see that both line segment MK and CM are secants within the circle that come from a common point K.
This means that the Intersecting Secant Theorem applies here.
The Intersecting Secant Theorem states that if two secants are formed from a common point outside the circle, the length of each secant multiplied by the length of its corresponding external secant are equivalent.
We can set up the following equation.
[tex]8(8+x+5)=7(7+2x+1)[/tex]
[tex]8(x+13)=7(2x+8)[/tex]
[tex]8x+104=14x+56[/tex]
[tex]6x=48[/tex]
[tex]x=8[/tex]
Using this value, we can find the length of line segment MK.
[tex]MK=x+5+8[/tex]
[tex]MK=8+5+8[/tex]
[tex]MK=21[/tex]
Hope this helps!

from the Deck of 52 cards is drawn at a random . what is the probability of a face card or ace ?
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Total no. of cards = 52 (Total no. of outcomes)
There are 12 face cards. No of favorable outcomes = 12
P(E) = favorable outcome/total no of outcomes
So,
[tex]P(F)=\dfrac{12}{52}\\\\=\dfrac{3}{13}[/tex]
There is 4 ace in a deck of 52 cards.
[tex]P(A)=\dfrac{4}{52}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{13}[/tex]
Hence, this is the required solution.
find hcf of x³y and x⁴y³
no a and d
Answer:
See solutions below
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Given the expressions
x³y and x⁴y³
Find their factors
x³y = (x * x * x * y)
x⁴y³ = (x * x * x * y) * x * y * y
GCF = x*x*x*y
GCF = x³y
The expressions in parenthesis is the GCF. Hence the GCF of x³y and x⁴y³ is x³y
b) For 48m⁶n⁵p⁴ and 20m⁴n⁵p⁶
48m⁶n⁵p⁴ =12 * (4 * m⁴ * n⁵ * p⁴) * m²
20m⁴n⁵p⁶ = 5 * (4 * m⁴ * n⁵ * p⁴) * p²
GCF is the expression common to both terms
GCF = 4 * m⁴ * n⁵ * p⁴
GCF = 4m⁴n⁵p⁴
PLEASE HELP FAST!!!!!!!!!
Answer:
132 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, you need to know a couple of rules
1) Inscribed angle theroem: when an angle is inscribed in a circle and touches the other end (as opposed to ending at the diameter of the circle), the measure of this angle is half of the measure of the arc.
2)Angles of a quadrilateral shape add up to 360 degrees.
3) The angles inside a circle and the angles of the circles arclength adds up to 360 degrees.
So first, solve angle S with inscribed angle theorem. 126/2 = 63
Then, use the rule that all arc angles in a circle add up to 360 degrees to find the arc angle from Q to S. 360-90-126 = 144. Now find angle P with inscribed angle theorem by doing 144/2 = 72.
Now, use the rule that all angles in a quadrilateral add up to 360 to find R. 360-93-72-63 = 132.
Let me know if this doesn't work, I'll look at it again.

answer.

X
16
22
Answer:
10.7
Step-by-step explanation:
To find x we have to basically do pythagoream theorem twice. Both the traingles share the same long side. The find the long side of the top traingle do, [tex]a^{2} +16^{2} =25^{2}[/tex], and we find the long side to be [tex]\sqrt{369}[/tex]. Using this we now plug it into the pythagoream theorem for the bottom triangle. [tex]\sqrt{369} ^{2} +x^{2} =22^{2}[/tex], and doing this out we find that x=[tex]\sqrt{115}[/tex] or about 10.7.

An animal transport van has a weight limit of 5,000 pounds. Which of these animal pairings could the van safely carry?
Answer:
See Explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Required
Pair of animal the van can carry
The question is incomplete, as the animals and their weights are not given.
So, we make the following assumed parameters [in other to answer the question]
[tex]Goat = 2500lb[/tex]
[tex]Cow = 4500lb[/tex]
[tex]Dog = 1500lb[/tex]
[tex]Pig = 3000lb[/tex]
Add the weights of any two animals
[tex]Goat + Cow = 2500lb + 4500lb = 7000lb[/tex]
[tex]Goat + Dog = 2500lb + 1500lb = 4000lb[/tex]
[tex]Goat + Pig = 2500lb + 3000lb = 5500lb[/tex]
[tex]Cow + Dog = 4500lb + 1500lb = 6000lb[/tex]
[tex]Cow + Pig = 4500lb + 3000lb = 7500lb[/tex]
[tex]Dog + Pig = 1500lb + 3000lb = 4500lb[/tex]
Next: Select the sum that are less than or equal to 5000lb
[tex]Goat + Dog = 2500lb + 1500lb = 4000lb[/tex]
[tex]Dog + Pig = 1500lb + 3000lb = 4500lb[/tex]
Identify the pairs
(Goat, Dog) and (Dog, Pig)
Using the assumed parameters, the van can only transport the pairing of:
(1) Goat and dog
(2) Dog and pig

Answer:
31/40
Step-by-step explanation:
it cannot be simplified any further
Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you have to find a common demenator between the fractions, you can do this by multiplying the denomenators together, 8 * 5 is 40
Next, you have to multiply the first fraction by 5/5 and the second fraction by 8/8 and now you have 15/40 + 16/40, and now that the fractions have the same denomenators you can just add the numerators
And you get 30/40, which can be reduced to 3/4 by diviging both the numerator and denomenator by 10
