The trim loss percent for rutabagas is 19%. If you purchase rutabaga for $0.79 per pound, how much would 3 pounds 9 ounces cost?

Answers

Answer 1

3 pounds 9 ounces of rutabagas would cost $2.28

How to determine the cost of rutabagas

The question is a percentage problem

The trim loss percent for rutabagas is 19%

= 19 percent

= 19 / 100

= 0.19

trim loss factor = 1 - 0.19 = 0.81

selling price of rutabagas  = $0.79 * 0.81 = 0.6399

converting all the unit in pounds

3 pounds 9 ounces: if 1 pound is 16 ounces then 9 ounces will be

3 pounds 9 ounces: 9/16 ounces = 0.5625

therefore we have 3.5625 pounds of rutabagas

3.5625 pounds of rutabagas will cost

= 3.5625 * 0.6399

= $2.28

Marcelo was practicing penalty shots during soccer practice. Marcelo made 10 out of 25 of the shots he attempted. If Marcelo missed 30 shots, how many total shots did he take?

Answers

Marcelo will have to take 50 shots in order to miss 30 shots because the ratio of shots to missed shots is 5:3

Proportions and Ratios

A ratio is an ordered pair of numbers a and b, written a / b where b does not equal 0. A proportion is an equation in which two ratios are set equal to each other. For example, if there is 1 boy and 3 girls you could write the ratio as: 1 : 3 (for every one boy there are 3 girls) 1 / 4 are boys and 3 / 4 are girls.

To solve this question, we can simply compare the ratio or proportion of shots to the number of missed shots.

In every 25 shots taken, he made 10 shots. This implies he lose 15 shots.

So, for every 25 shots, he lost 15 shots.

How many shots did he take to miss 30 shots.

25 shots = 15 missed shots

x shots = 30 missed shots

crossed multiply both sides and solve for x

x = (30 * 25) / 15

x = 50 shots.

Marcelo took 50 shots.

What is the slope of a line that is parallel to the line y = x + 2?
Mark this and return

Answers

The slope of a line that is parallel to the line y = x + 2 is 1.

What is slope?

A line's steepness is determined by its slope. In mathematics, the slope is determined by "rise over run" (change in y divided by change in x).

Given the equation of line: y = x + 2

We have to find the slope of a line that is parallel to the given line.

Since any line parallel to the given line  y = x + 2  will have the same slope as that of a given line

The general equation of line is given as y = mx + c

where. m is the slope of the line and c is y-intercept.

Thus for given equation of line y = x + 2

Comparing , we get

slope is m=1

Thus, any line with slope 1  is parallel to the given line y = x + 2

2) A small number of cards has been lost from a complete pack. If I deal among four people, three cards remain. If I deal among three people, two remain and if I deal among five people, two cards remain. How many cards are there?

Answers

There doesn't seem to be enough information to answer problem 1.

I would ask your teacher for clarification.

=============================================

Problem 2

Answer:   47 cards

--------------------------

Explanation

x = number of cards, which is some positive whole number.

Your teacher has provided these facts:

If I deal among four people, three cards remain. If I deal among three people, two cards remain.If I deal among five people, two cards remain.

which I'll call "fact 1", "fact 2", "fact 3" in that order.

For now I'll focus on fact 3.

Recall that multiples of 5 either end with 0 or 5. Example: 25 is a multiple of 5, and so is 60.

Fact 3 says that we get a remainder 2 when dividing by 5. Therefore, x must be something like 25+2 = 27 or 60+2 = 62. I added 2 to each previous example mentioned earlier.

In short, the value of x must end with 2 or 7.

-------------------

Now focus on fact 1.

The multiples of 4 are {4, 8, 12, ...} all of which are even since 2 is a factor of each.

Add remainder 3 to each item to get {7, 11, 15, ...} and it should be fairly obvious that all of these items are odd.

What does this mean? It means we know 100% that x ends with 7 in the units digit. If x has 2 in the units digit, then x would be even, but it's not in the set {7, 11, 15, ...}

So this is very useful info that x ends with 7.

x could be any of these: {7, 17, 27, 37, ...}

-------------------

We've looked at facts 1 and 3 so far. The only thing left is fact 2.

List the multiples of 3 to get

{3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, ...}

then add on the remainder 2 giving this new updated set

{5, 8, 11, 14, 17, 20, ...}

We see that 17 is in that set which fits the criteria of "the number ends with 7". So it's possible that 17 is the answer.

But 17/4 = 4 remainder 1 which doesn't fit fact 1 (since we want remainder 3 instead).

But we can add on multiples of 3*5 = 15 to extend to this new set of

{17, 32, 47, 62, 77, ...}

then erase stuff that ends with 2 to get

{17, 47, 77, ...}

Through guess and check, 47 will work out as shown in the next section below. Therefore, 47 is the final answer.

-------------------

Check:

47/4 = 11 remainder 347/3 = 15 remainder 247/5 = 9 remainder 2

We get the proper remainders mentioned earlier, so the answer has been confirmed.

-------------------

Side note: The convention for problems like this is to use the Chinese Remainder Theorem. However, I decided not to use it because I wasn't sure if your teacher has covered modulo arithmetic yet or not. If s/he has covered it, then I recommend using that method instead of what I posted above. It's a much more efficient option.

write an equation passing through the point and parallel to the given line? (6, 10); 2x + 2y = -8

Answers

Answer:

y=-x+16

Step-by-step explanation:

let’s put this equation in slope intercept form: y=mx+b

2x+2y=-8

-2x.      -2x

2y=-2x-8

/2.  /2.  /2

y=-x-4

We know parallel lines have the same slope as each other so let’s fill in the equation with the given point

10=-(6)-4

10=-10

We need to add 20 more to the y intercept to make this true like this

y=-x-4+20

y=-x+16

Now let’s see if it works

10=-(6)+16

10=10

It works so this is the equation

Hopes this helps please mark brainliest

Answer: y = -x +16

Step-by-step explanation:

rearrange the equation to make y the subject

2y = -2x -8

y = -x-4

equation of line parallel to the line (gradient will be the same)

y = -x +c

Substitute the x and y values into the parallel line equation

10 = -6 + c

10 + 6 = c

16 = c

Therefore, the equation of the line parallel to 2x + 2y = -8 is y = -x +16

Answers

As per the concept of counting problem, the reason that the answers in part (a) and part (b) are not the same is because Q1 and Q2 are treated as two different coins in part (a) whereas they are effectively treated as the same coin in part (b). And the reason they are treated as one coin is because they both contribute the same amount to the sum of money.

Counting Problems

Basically, counting refers the process of finding the number of elements of a finite set of objects.

Given,

Suppose you have a nickel, two dimes, and a quarter. One of the dimes was minted in 1976, and the other one was minted in 1992.

While we looking into the given problem,

For A) states that,  If you choose at least one coin, this means you could choose 1, 2, 3 or 4 coins. Let us label the dime as D, the penny as P, the quarter minted in 1976 as Q1 and the quarter minted in 1992 as Q2.

Here in this process if you choose one coin, you could choose either D, P, Q1, or Q2. This gives us 4 possible sets.

And If you choose two coins, you choose the following sets of coins: DP, DQ1, DQ2, PQ1, PQ2, Q1Q2. This gives us 6 possible sets.

Then If you choose three coins, you could the following sets of coins: DPQ1, DPQ2, DQ1Q2, PQ1Q2. This gives us 4 possible sets.

So, If you choose four coins, you can only choose DPQ1Q2. This gives us 1 possible set.

So, the total number of different sets of coins you can form is 4 + 6 + 4 + 1 = 15 different sets of coins can be formed.

Similarly, for b) If you choose at least one coin, this means you could choose 1, 2, 3 or 4 coins.

Then If you choose one coin you could choose either D, P, Q1, or Q2. However, since Q1 and Q2 give us the same sum, they are effectively the same set. This gives us 3 possible sums.

So, If you choose two coins, you could choose the following sets of coins : DP, DQ, PQ, Q1Q2.And this gives us 4 possible sums

Then If you choose three coins, you could choose the following sets of coins: DPQ, DQ1Q2, PQ1Q2. And this gives us 3 possible sums

Then If you choose four coins, you can only choose DPQ1Q2. This gives us 1 possible sum.

So, the total number of different sums of coins you can form is 3 + 4 + 3 + 1 = 11 different sums of money can be produced.

Finally, c) The reason that the answers in part (a) and part (b) are not the same is because Q1 and Q2 are treated as two different coins in part (a) whereas they are effectively treated as the same coin in part (b). And the reason they are treated as one coin is because they both contribute the same amount to the sum of money.

In game 1, the two players have the same probability of winning, hence it is a fair game.

When two dice are thrown, there are 36 possible outcomes. The number of outcomes regarding the sums are given as follows:

Sum of 9: (3, 6), (4,5), (5,4), (6,3) -> 4 outcomes -> 1/9 probability.Sum of 5: (1,4), (2,3), (3,2), (4,1) -> 4 outcomes -> 1/9 probability.

Same probabilities, hence game 2 is also fair.

$15 a share. A month later, it was
selling at $27 a share. What is
the percent increase?

Answers

Answer: 0.555555556

Step-by-step explanation:

15/27=0.555555556

Checking work by plugging it in: 27x0.555555556=15

Answer:   80%  increase

======================================================

Work Shown:

a = old value = 15

b = new value = 27

c = change in values

c = b-a

c = 27-15

c = 12

The positive c value tells us that we have an increase.

Then divide over the starting value a = 15

c/a = 12/15 = 0.80

Move the decimal point two spots to the right to go from 0.80 to 80%

Or multiply 0.80 with 100% to get 0.80*100% = 80%

We have a percent increase of 80%

-------------------

Check:

80% of 15 = 0.80*15 = 12

If the stock increases by 80%, then it has increased by $12 to go from $15 a share to 15+12 = 27 dollars a share. This confirms the answer.

A slight shortcut would be to say 1.80*15 = 27

The multiplier 1.80 represents an increase of 80% since 100% + 80% = 1 + 0.80 = 1.80

A regular polygon is shown with one of its angle measures labeled a.

5 sided regular polygon with one angle labeled a

If m∠a = (3z + 72)°, find the value of z.
z = 9
z = 12
z = 24
z = 32

Answers

Answer:

B) z = 12

===========================

Sum of interior angles of a regular polygon is:

S = 180(n - 2), where n- sides of polygon

Find the measure of interior angle a:

a = S/5 = 180(5 - 2)/5 = 540/5 = 108

Equate the values of angle a and solve for z:

3z + 72 = 1083z = 108 - 723z = 36z = 12

Correct choice is B.

Answer:

z = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\boxed{\begin{minipage}{5.4 cm}\underline{Interior angle of a regular polygon}\\\\$\dfrac{180^{\circ}(n-2)}{n}$\\\\where $n$ is the number of sides.\\\end{minipage}}[/tex]

Given that the regular polygon has 5 sides, then the measure of one interior angle is:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{180^{\circ}(5-2)}{5}=\dfrac{180^{\circ}(3)}{5}=\dfrac{540^{\circ}}{5}=108^{\circ}[/tex]

If "a" is the measure of one angle, and m∠a = (3z + 72)° then:

[tex]\implies m \angle a=108^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\implies (3z+72)^{\circ}=108^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\implies 3z+72=108[/tex]

[tex]\implies 3z+72-72=108-72[/tex]

[tex]\implies 3z=36[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{3z}{3}=\dfrac{36}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\implies z=12[/tex]
