What is the smallest possible value of q?

Answers

Answer: The smallest possible value of q is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have the set of N numbers:

{x₁, x₂, x₃, ..., xₙ}

The mean of this set is:

M = (x₁ + x₂ + x₃ + ... + xₙ)/N

Now, in this case our set is:

{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, p times 5, q times 7}

Then we have a total of:

6 + q + p numbers.

The mean of this set will be:

Mean = 5.3 = (1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + p*5 + q*7)/(6 + p + q)

This is the equation that we will use now.

First, we can simplify this as:

5.3 = (21 + p*5 + q*7)/(6 + p + q)

Now we can pass the denominator in the right to the other side as:

5.3*(6 + p + q) = (21 + p*5 + q*7)

31.8 + p*5.3 + q*5.3 = 21 + p*5 + q*7

Now we want to isolate the variable p in one side of the equation.

p*5.3 - p*5 = 21 - 31.8 + q*7 - q*5.3

p*0.3 = q*1.7 - 10.8

p = (q*1.7 - 10.8)/0.3 = q*(1.7/0.3) - 36

p = q*(1.7/0.3) - 36

p = q*(17/10)*(10/3) - 36

p = q*(17/3) - 36

Now we can see that the denominator is 3, so q should be a multiple of 3.

We want to start with the smallest multiples of 3, but if we use q = 3, then we will have a negative value of p (the same happens if we use 1 = 6)

We do not want that, then we need to use q = 9

p = 9*(17/3) - 36

p = 3*17 - 36

p = 15

Then we have;

9 times the number 7

15 times the number 5 (plus one, because it was already on the first 6 numbers that Sam wrote)

The smallest possible value of q is 9.

Now we want to get the smallest possible value of q.

Remember, p and q need to be positive numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribution property

Let a, b and c are numbers then distribution property is defined by

a( b + c) = a b + a c

(a+ b) c = a c + b c

Given that

( 5 + s ) 4 = 5× 4 + s× 4

               = 20 + 4 s

Final answer:-

∠A and \angle B∠B are vertical angles. If m\angle A=(6x-11)^{\circ}∠A=(6x−11) ∘ and m\angle B=(5x+4)^{\circ}∠B=(5x+4) ∘ , then find the measure of \angle B∠B.

Answers

Answer: [tex]\angle B=79^{\circ}.[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

When two lines cross each other , then the opposite angles are known  as vertical angles.

Vertical angles are equal.

Here, ∠A and ∠B are vertical angles.

So, ∠A = ∠B

If [tex]\angle A=(6x-11)^{\circ}[/tex] and [tex]\angle B=(5x+4)^{\circ}[/tex]

Then , [tex]6x-11=5x+4[/tex]

Subtract 5x from both sides, we get

[tex]x-11=4[/tex]

Add 11 on both sides, we get

[tex]x=15[/tex]

Now , [tex]\angle B=(5(15)+4)^{\circ}=79^{\circ}[/tex]

Hence, the measure of [tex]\angle B=79^{\circ}.[/tex]

This is a pond in the shape of a prism. It is completely full of water
Colin uses a pump to empty the pond.
The level goes down by 30 cm in the first 30 minutes.
Work out how many minutes Colin has to wait for
the pond to completely empty.​

Answers

Kindly check picture to the question below.

Answer:

150 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of prism = height * base area

Height of prism = 1m

Base area = area of a trapezium

Area of trapezium = 0.5(a + b) h

a, b = parallel sides, h= height of trapezium

Area of trapezium = 0.5(1.4+0.6)*2

Area = 0.5(2)*2 = 2m²

Hence,

V of prism = area of trapezium * height of prism

Volume = 2m² * 1m = 2m³

Decrease in water level due to pumping

20cm decrease in 30minutes

(20/100)m in 30 minutes

0.2 m decrease in height of water

Hence, height of water in prism after 30 minutes pumping :

height - 0.2 = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8m

Volume after 30 minutes of pumping :

Base area * new height

2m² * 0.8m = 1.6m³

Decrease in volume over 30 minutes :

(Initial volume - volume after pumping)

2m³ - 1.6m³ = 0.4m³

If ;

0.4m³ = 30 minutes

1.6m³ = x

0.4x = 48

x = 48 / 0.4

x = 120

Hence, it takes 120 minutes for the remaining 1.6m³ to be emptied.

Hence, total wait time :

120 minutes + 30 minutes

= 150 minutes

I think this question is a good challenge so yeah whoever is looking for one here I am =v=All over the world, animal habitats bump up against human development. Where these two worlds collide, animals almost never fare well. Highways, where humans speed by large tracts of natural habitat like missiles of doom, are especially dangerous for wild creatures. They can also be deadly, not just for individual animals but for entire species. The Florida panther, for example, has such a low population that each time one is killed on a highway, it is a catastrophic loss.There is hope, however, that is a new way of helping animals cross through highway areas unharmed. Wildlife overpasses give animals a way to cross highways without risking their lives. These look and work like bridges but are usually covered with grass and trees that make animals like deer feel welcome. The cars drive through a tunnel under the bridges. Fences along the top edges keep the animals safe.These overpasses also connect habitats, so along with deer, the coyotes who hunt them can cross. This allows both species to have a larger range, which also helps their long-term survival. To the animals in these habitats, the overpasses may be like an extra safety net that helps them survive a drought. The bridges are especially important for animals that migrate. For centuries, animals like elk and buffalo migrated on trails that still, now, lead right up to the edges of major highways. With the help of these bridges, migrating animals can still follow their long-used paths unharmed.In some cases, these overpasses benefit humans directly as well. In these cases, the overpasses are part of a green space or park that people use for cycling, backpacking, or jogging. The overpasses give humans access to areas they may not have been able to see but also provide safety for animals.The next time you are traveling on a highway, keep a lookout for a wildlife passage. With attention to how our lives affect the natural world, we can find clever solutions, like wildlife passages, that help animals and improve our lives, too.Extra! Extra!Not all wildlife accommodations for highways are overpasses. In some cases, certain species are so important that underpasses or underground tunnels are built. In Florida, two such underpasses help turtles, snakes, and alligators that often migrate from one body of water to another. Since these creatures do not have much speed, crossing a highway for them is even more deadly than it is for swift animals like deer. Working as a large funnel, these underpasses usually require a barricade or fence alongside the highway that forces animals toward a tunnel. Aquatic turtles especially benefit from these tunnels as they lay eggs in holes dug in dry ground, away from the lake they live in.(The question is below) Does anyone know what the imagery is in the The Lake Isle of Innisfree ?
