The three volumes of Lord of the Rings sit in order on a shelf. Each is 1 1/4 inches thick, comprising an inch of pages and 1/8 inch for each cover. A bookworm bores from page 1, volume I, to the last page of volume III. How far does it travel?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4 2/4 (NOT SIMPLIFIED)

Step-by-step explanation:

Comprising means made of (aka including). You just add 1 1/4+1 1/4+1 1/4.

=3 3/4

The 1/8 is for the front and back cover. The bookworm ate through 3 volumes so there is 6 covers. So times 1/8 by 6. I turned the 6 into a fraction by putting it over 1. So now you have 1/8×6/1=6/8. Now you are going to add the 3 3/4 to the 6/8. You are going to turn the whole fraction to an improper. You are going to multiply the whole number(3) to the denominator(4), add that to the numerator(3) , and put it over the original denominator (4)= 15/4. Now you are going to set up the problem were you add the 6/8 to the 15/4. To add fractions the denominator have to be the same. With this problem you have two options: you can either do an equation to change the 6/8 denominator equal to 4 or an equation to change the 15/4 denominator equal to 8. Either one would work fine. I'm going to show you how to set the 6/8 denominator to 4.

1. Set it up as an equation                       6/8=x/4

2. Find what gets the first denominator to the second in this case dividing by 2                                                          6/8=x/4

3. What you do to the bottom is what you have to do with the top. So to find x, you need to divide 6 by 2= 3

So now your new equation is now 3/4+15/4. Adding this should give you 18/4, but most likely you have to write it as a proper fraction. To do this you are going to divide the 18 by 4. Your remainder will become your new numerator and the 4 will still be you denominator. The number times 4 fully goes into 18 will be your new whole number.

18/4=4.5

Answers

(h + k)(2) = 5

evaluate 3h(2) + 2k(3) = 17

The composition of functions is solved

a) ( h + k ) ( 2 ) = 5

b) ( h - k ) ( 3 ) = 9

c) 3h ( 2 ) + 2k ( 3 ) = 17

What is Composition of functions?

Evaluation of a function at the value of another function is known as Composition of function. A function composition is a process in which two functions, f and g, form a new function, h, in such a way that h(x) = g(f(x)). This signifies that function g is being applied to the function x. So, in essence, a function is applied to the output of another function.

Given data ,

Let the first function be represented as f ( x )

Now , the value of f ( x ) is

h ( x ) = x² + 1

Let the second function be represented as g ( x )

Now , the value of g ( x ) is

k ( x ) = x - 2

Now , the composition of function is

To calculate (h+k)(2), we substitute x = 2 in both h(x) and k(x), add them together and simplify:

h(2) = 2² + 1 = 5

k(2) = 2 - 2 = 0

(h+k)(2) = h(2) + k(2) = 5 + 0 = 5

To calculate (h-k)(3), we substitute x = 3 in both h(x) and k(x), subtract k(x) from h(x), and simplify:

h(3) = 3² + 1 = 10

k(3) = 3 - 2 = 1

(h-k)(3) = h(3) - k(3) = 10 - 1 = 9

To evaluate 3h(2)+2k(3), we substitute x = 2 and x = 3 in h(x) and k(x), respectively, and simplify:

3h(2) + 2k(3) = 3(5) + 2(3-2) = 15 + 2 = 17

Therefore , ( h + k ) ( 2 ) = 5 , ( h - k ) ( 3 ) = 9, and 3h( 2 ) + 2k( 3 ) = 17

Hence , the composition of functions is solved

Peter bought 45 greeting cards at 3 for $2.00. he sold them for 5 for $4.00. how much money did he make

Answers

Step 1) Set up a proportion to find how much Peter spent

45 cards / x dollars = 3 cards / 2 dollars

Step 2) Cross-multiply to solve the proportion

3x = 90

x = $30

Step 3) Set up a proportion to find how much Peter made

45 cards / x dollars = 5 cards / 4 dollars

5x = 180

x = $36

Step 4) Subtract the amount Peter made by the amount he spent

36 - 30 = $6

Answer: Peter made $6

($2/3) * 45 = $30

($4/5) * 45 = $36

1) We state our null and alternative hypothesis as

H0: ud= 0                   Ha: ud≠0

2) The significance level alpha is set at α= 0.05

3) The test statistic under H0 is

t= d`/ sd/√n

which has t distribution with n-1 degrees of freedom.

4) The critical region is t ≥ t ( 0.025,11) = 2.201

5) Computations

d`= ∑di/n= 312/12= 31.2

Variance = ∑(di- d`)²/n-1= 1/n-1 [ ∑di²-( ∑di)²/n]

= 1/11[ 23488- (312)²/12]

= 1/11[ 23488- 8112] = 1/11[15376]= 5976.7272

Standard Deviation= √ 5976.7272= 77.2510= 77.25

Now t= 3.12/77.25/√12= 0.011659

The calculated t value= 0.011659 falls in the acceptance region . So we accept our null hypothesis  and reject the alternative hypothesis.

At the beginning of a snowstorm, Sydney had 11 inches of snow on her lawn. The
snow then began to fall at a constant rate of 0.5 inches per hour. Assuming no snow
was melting, how much snow would Sydney have on her lawn 3 hours after the snow
began to fall? How much snow would Sydney have on her lawn after t hours of snow

Answers

Answer:

12.5in.

x=.5t+11

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, create the equation so you can solve both questions at once. We know that Sydney had eleven inches of snow on her lawn, and it doesn't dissapear, so it starts with x=11. Then every hour she gets .5 inches per hour, and the amount of hours is t, so that will translate to .5t. that makes the equation x=.5t+11. To find out how much she would have in three hours, substitute 3 for t, which which goes like this: x=.5(3)+11

x=1.5+11

x=12.5

Answer:

Snow after 3 hours: 12.5

Snow after t hours: 11+0.5t

[tex]x<-\frac{1}{2}\text{ or } x>1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

[tex]|-4x+1|>3[/tex]

First, note that since the sign is greater than, this is an or inequality (not an "and" inequality). This is the student's first mistake.

So, let's solve this inequality.

Case 1:

[tex]-4x+1>3[/tex]

Subtract 1 from both sides:

[tex]-4x>2[/tex]

Divide both sides by -4:

[tex]x<-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

The student did not flip the sign when doing this step, hence the incorrect answer.

You correctly spotted the student's mistake. Nicely done!

Case 2:

[tex]-4x+1<-3[/tex]

This is what you're missing: for this second instance, we must flip the sign to less than right away. This is because we are essentially multiplying the 3 by a negative. So, we must flip the sign in order to be correct.

Now solve. Subtract 1 from both sides:

[tex]-4x<-4[/tex]

Divide both sides by -4. Since we're dividing by a negative, flip the sign:

[tex]x>1[/tex]

So, our solutions are:

[tex]x<-\frac{1}{2}, x>1[/tex]

As mentioned previously, this is an or inequality. Therefore, our final answer is:

[tex]x<-\frac{1}{2}\text{ or } x>1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of each shoe = 12 inches

Find:

Total length of shoes in feet

Computation:

Total length of shoes = [12 + 12] inches

6. aA box in a certain supply room contains four 40-watt light bulbs, five 60-watt bulbs, and six 75-watt bulbs. Suppose that three bulbs are randomly selected. a. What is the probability that exactly one of the selected bulbs are rated 75-watt? b. What is the probability that all three of the elected bulbs have the same rating? c. What is the probability that one bulb of each type is selected? d. What is the probability that at least two of the selected bulbs are rated 75-watt?

Answers

Answer:

A) 0.2967

B) 0.0747

C) 0.2637

D)0.6933

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told the box contains four 40-watt light bulbs, five 60-watt bulbs, and six 75-watt bulbs.

Thus, total number of bulbs = 4 + 5 + 6 = 15 bulbs

This is a combination problem.

Thus;

A) probability that exactly one of the selected bulbs are rated 75-watt will be = ((6C2) × (9C1))/(15C3)

= (15 × 9)/455

= 0.2967

B) probability that all three of the elected bulbs have the same rating;

Number of ways to select three 40 watt bulbs out of the 4 in the box = 4C1 = 4!/(3! × 1!) = 4

Number of ways to select three 60 watt bulbs out of the 5 in the box = 5C1 =

5!/(3! × 2!) = 10

Number of ways to select 75 watt bulbs out of the 6 in the box = 6C1 = 6!/(3! × 3!) = 20

Total number of ways = 4 + 10 + 20 = 34.

Thus, probability that all three of the elected bulbs have the same rating = 34/15C3 = 34/455

= 0.0747

C) probability that one bulb of each type is selected =

[(4C1) × (5C1) × (6C1)]/(15C3)

= (4 × 5 × 6)/455

= 0.2637

D) probability that at least two of the selected bulbs are rated 75-watt =

[(4C1 × 5C1 × 6C2)/15C3] + 6C3/15C3

= (4 × 5 × 15/455) + 20/455

= 0.6493 + 0.044

= 0.6933
