a model truck is 13.5 inches long 7.5 inches wide. the original truck was 12 feet long. how wide was the truck?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

w = 6ft 8in

Step-by-step explanation:

the proportions will be the same

w/7.5 = 12/13.5

multiply both sides by 7.5

w = 12/13.5 * 7.5

w = 6.6666666667ft

w = 6ft 8in

Answer 2

The original truck was 6.67 feet wide.

What is ratio?

"It is a comparison of two or more numbers that indicates their sizes in relation to each other."

What is proportion?

"It is an equation in which two ratios are set equal to each other."

For given example,

A model truck is 13.5 inches long 7.5 inches wide.

The ratio of length to width of a model truck would be,

13.5 : 7.5                       ...........................(1)

The original truck was 12 feet long.

This means the original truck was 144 inches long.

Let 'x' be the width (in inches) of the original truck.

So, the ratio of the length to the width of the original truck would be,

144 : x                           .................................(2)

Also, the ratios given by (1) and (2) must be in proportion.

[tex]\Rightarrow \frac{13.5}{7.5} = \frac{144}{x} \\\\\Rightarrow 13.5 \times x = 144 \times 7.5\\\\\Rightarrow \bold{x=80~inches}\\\\\Rightarrow \bold{x=6.67~feet}[/tex]

Therefore, the original truck was 6.67 feet wide.

Length of Line AC = 26 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Line AC = [3x + 1] + 8

Line BC = [x - 2] + 2

Find:

Length of Line AC

Computation:

Line AB ║ Line L

So,

Using Mid-Point theorem;

[3x + 1] / 8 = [x - 2] / 2

2[3x + 1] = 8[x - 2]

6x + 2 = 8x - 16

8x - 6x = 16 + 2

2x = 18

x = 9

So,

Line AC = [3x + 1] + 8

Line AC = [3(9) + 1] + 8

Line AC = [27 + 1] + 8

Line AC = 28 + 8

Length of Line AC = 26 units

2. Suppose over several years of offering AP Statistics, a high school finds that final exam scores are normally distributed with a mean of 78 and a standard deviation of 6. A. What are the mean, standard deviation, and shape of the distribution of x-bar for n

Answers

Answer:

By the Central Limit Theorem, the mean is 78, the standard deviation is [tex]s = \frac{6}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex] and the shape is approximately normal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Mean of 78 and a standard deviation of 6

This means that [tex]\mu = 78, \sigma = 6[/tex]

Samples of n:

This means that the standard deviation is:

[tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{6}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

What are the mean, standard deviation, and shape of the distribution of x-bar for n?

By the Central Limit Theorem, the mean is 78, the standard deviation is [tex]s = \frac{6}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex] and the shape is approximately normal.

The zoo downtown has 9 times as many monkeys as elephants. They have 60 animals all together. How many elephants are there?

Answers

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

e = number of elephants

9 times as many monkeys as elephants

m = 9e

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

60 animals all together

e + m = 60

e + 9e = 60

Combine like terms

10e = 60

Divide both sides by 10

e = 6

Answer: There’s technically no answer to this question, unless you specify that the zoo only has monkeys and elephants. If the zoo has more than two types of animal then the ratio doesn’t help because there are unknown variables.

However, if we knew that the zoo only has monkeys and elephants, then:

E = number of elephants

M = number of monkeys

M=9E

M + E = 60

9E+E= 60

10E = 60

E = 6

There are 6 elephants (and 54 monkeys).

Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation: 1 foot is 12 inches. Since the feet are going up by ones, you can say 1=12, 2=24 (+12), 3=36(+12), 4=48(+12)

Hope this helps

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is 48.

Each value of y is a multiple of 12, so for when there is 4 feet, you multiply 12 by 4 to get 48.

For when it is 1 foot, you multiply 12 by 1 to get 12.

For when it is 2 feet, you multiply 12 by 2 to get 24.

For when it is 3 feet, you multiply 12 by 3 to get 36

For when it is 5 feet, you multiply 12 by 5 to get 60.

If you were to continue, the y-values (aka the inches) will always be a multiple of 12.

Assume the total cost of a college education will be $200,000 when your child enters college in 16 years. You presently have $55,000 to invest. What annual rate of interest must you earn on your investment to cover the cost of your child’s college education?

Answers

Answer:

8.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

let x = interest rate

55,000(1 + x)^16 = 200,000

divide both sides by 55,000

(1 + x)^16 = 3.636

find the invese of 16

1 + x = 1.084

In a standard deck of cards, what is the probability of drawing a face card followed by drawing a non-face card

Answers

Answer:

0.1771

Step-by-step explanation:

total number of cards in a deck : 52

number of face card per suite : 3

total number of suites : 4 (hearts, clubs, diamonds, spades)

3 * 4 = total number of face cards

12/52 = 0.23 = probability of drawing a face card

remaining card are non face cards

52-12 = 40

40 non face cards

40/52 = 0.77 = probability of drawing a non face card

probability of drawing a face card followed by a non face card

multiply probabilities together to find combined probability

probability of drawing a face card * probability of drawing a non face card

= 0.23 * 0.77

= 0.1771

A radioactive substance decays to 30% of its original mass in 15 months. Determine the half-life of this radioactive substance to the nearest tenth. Show your work.

please help

Answers

Answer:

The half-life of this radioactive substance is of 8.6 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential decay of an amount:

The equation that models an amount after t units of time, subject to exponential decay, is given by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1-r)^t[/tex]

In which A(0) is the initial amount and r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

A radioactive substance decays to 30% of its original mass in 15 months.

This means that [tex]A(15) = 0.3A(0)[/tex]. We use this to find 1 - r.

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1-r)^t[/tex]

[tex]0.3A(0) = A(0)(1-r)^{15}[/tex]

[tex](1-r)^{15} = 0.3[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt[15]{(1-r)^{15}} = \sqrt[15]{0.3}[/tex]

[tex]1 - r = (0.3)^{\frac{1}{15}}[/tex]

[tex]1 - r = 0.9229[/tex]

So

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(0.9229)^t[/tex]

Determine the half-life of this radioactive substance to the nearest tenth.

This is t for which A(t) = 0.5A(0). So

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(0.9229)^t[/tex]

[tex]0.5A(0) = A(0)(0.9229)^t[/tex]

[tex](0.9229)^t = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]\log{(0.9229)^t} = \log{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]t\log{0.9229} = \log{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{\log{0.5}}{\log{0.9229}}[/tex]

[tex]t = 8.6[/tex]

The half-life of this radioactive substance is of 8.6 months.
