at a meeting ,everyone shakes hands exactly once with every other person . if there are 55 handshakes . then what Is the number of people attending​

Answers

Answer 1
11.
Every handshake takes 2. If no one shakes hands twice with another, there are 10+1 total people shaking hands (11).

Name them 1 thru 11. Make a line and 11 goes down the line and shakes 10 hands and then leaves. 10 then shakes 9 hands and leaves. 8 then shakes 7 hands and leaves. Etc. 2 shakes hands with 1 and leaves. 1 just leaves.

11— 10 hs

10— 9 hs

9— 8 hs

8— 7 hs

7— 6 hs

6— 5 hs

5— 4 hs

4— 3 hs

3— 2 hs

2— 1 hs

1— leaves

Total handshakes 55, total people 11.

A store purchases a shirt for $16.89. The store marks up the shirt by 20%. Right now, they are having a sale for 40% off any item. What is the sale price with a 7.25% tax?

Answers

Answer:

$13.04

Step-by-step explanation:

First, multiply 16.89 by 1.2, 0.6, and 1.0725. You should get a weird number on your calculator saying 13.042458, but just round 2 to the 4 ( 4 stays the same) and remove all the other numbers to get $13.04

Max is mixing oil and gas for his moped. He uses 3.75 liters of gas and 1.5 liters of oil. How many liters of gas are used per liter of oil?

Answers

Answer:

2.5 liters of gas is used with per liter of oil

Step-by-step explanation:

Max is missing oil and gas for his moped.

Amount of gas used = 3.75 liters

Amount of oil required = 1.5 liters

Ratio in which gas and oil are mixed = [tex]\frac{3.75}{1.5}[/tex]

                                                             = [tex]\frac{2.5}{1}[/tex]

That means if he uses 1 liter of oil then the gas required for the mixture = 2.5 liters

Therefore, 2.5 liters of gas is used per liter of oil.

Answer:

y = -2x  + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

When 2 lines are perpendicular, the relationship between their slopes m1 and m2 may be stated as

m1m2 = -1

Given the line

y = 1/2 x + 8

Comparing with the general equation of a line y = mx + c where m is the slope and c is the intercept

m = m1 = 1/2

Hence the slope of the perpendicular line m2

= -1/1/2

= -2

Given that the line passes through the points (1,5)

using the equation

y - y1 = m (x - x1)

y - 5 = -2(x - 1)

y = -2x +2 + 5

y = -2x  + 7

Tucker purchased $4,600 in new equipment for a catering business. He estimates that the value of the equipment is reduced by approximately 40% every two years. Tucker states that the function V(t)=4,600(0.4)2t could be used to represent the value of the equipment, V, in dollars t years after the purchase of the new equipment. Explain whether the function Tucker stated is correct, and, if not, determine the correct function that could be used to find the value of the equipment purchased.

show work

Answers

Answer:

The function stated by Tucker is incorrect.

V(t) = 4600(0.8)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function :

V(t)=4,600(0.4)2t

The initial value of equipment = 4600

Decay rate = 40% of very 2 years

The value of equipment t years after purchase

The exponential decat function goes thus :

V(t) = Initial value * (1 - decay rate)^t

The Decay rate per year = 40% /2 = 20% = 0.2

V(t) = 4600(1 - 0.2)^t

V(t) = 4600(0.8)^t

Answer:

Malcolm owes the greatest amount.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking for the amount owed by each person. That just means you take the absolute value of their bank balance if their bank balance is negative. Absolute value is just how far away the number is from zero (basically when a number is negative, you're just making it positive).

Sophia owes $150, Malcolm owes $325, and Oren owes $275.

325 > 275 > 150

Thus Malcolm owes the most, since his amount owed is the highest.

the bearing of c from a is 210°
(i) find the bearing of B from A

(ii) find the bearing of A from B

if you could also solve the question above I'd be very grateful
I need it in at least 10 minutes so please answer it!! ♡♡​

Answers

Answer:

(a) His speed when he runs from C to A is [tex]4.\overline {285714}[/tex] m/s

(i) The bearing of B from A is approximately 127.18°

(ii) The bearing of A from B is approximately 307.18°

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The given parameters are;

The distance from A to B = 120 m

The speed with which Olay runs from A to B, v₁ = 4 m/s

The distance from B to C = 180 m

The speed with which Olay runs from B to C, v₂ = 3 m/s

The distance from C to A = 150 m

His average speed for the whole journey = 3.6 m/s

We find

The total distance of running from A back to A, d = 120 m + 180 m + 150 m = 450 m

The time it takes to run from A to B, t₁ = 120 m/(4m/s) = 30 seconds

The time it takes to run from B to C, t₂ = 180 m/(3m/s) = 60 seconds

Let t₃ represent the time it takes Olay to run from C to A

We have;

The total time it takes to run from A back to A = t₁ + t₂ + t₃

Therefore;

[tex]Average \ velocity = \dfrac{Total \ distance }{Total \ time} = \dfrac{d}{t_1 + t_2 + t_3}[/tex]

Substituting the known values for the average velocity, 'd', 't₁' and 't₂'  gives;

[tex]Average \ velocity = 3.6 \, m/s = \dfrac{450 \, m}{30 \, s + 60 \, s + t_3}[/tex]

3.6 m/s × (30 s + 60 s + t₃) = 450 m

3.6 m/s × 30 s + 3.6 m/s × 60 s + 3.6 m/s × t₃ = 450 m

108 m + 216 m + 3.6 m/s × t₃ = 450 m

∴ 3.6 m/s × t₃ = 450 m - (108 m + 216 m) = 126 m

t₃ = 126 m/(3.6 m/s) = 35 s

The speed with which Olay runs from C to A, v₃ = Distance from C to A/t₃

The speed with which he runs from C to A = 150 m/(35 s) = 30/7 m/s =[tex]4.\overline {285714}[/tex] m/s

(i) The given bearing of C from A = 210°

By cosine rule, we have;

a² = b² + c² - 2·b·c·cos(A)

∴ cos(A) = (b² + c² - a²)/(2·b·c)

Where;

a = The distance from B to C = 180 m

b = The distance from C to A = 150 m

c = The distance from A to B = 120 m

We find;

cos(A) = (150² + 120² - 180²)/(2 × 150 × 120) = 0.125

A = arccos(0.125) ≈ 82.82°

The bearing of B from A ≈ 210° - 82.82° ≈ 127.18°

The bearing of B from A ≈ 127.18°

(ii) The angle, θ, formed by the path of the bearing of A from B is an alternate to the supplementary angle of the bearing of B from A

Therefore, we have;

θ ≈ 180°- 127.18° ≈ 52.82°

The bearing of A from B = The sum of angle at a point less θ

∴ The bearing of A from B = 360° - 52.82° ≈ 307.18°

The bearing of A from B ≈ 307.18°.

if a trail runner zig-zags 15m to the west and then 15m to the east:

what is the runner's total distance?
what is the runner's total displacement?​

Answers

Answer:

Total distance = 30m

Total displacement = 0m

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Distance is a scalar quantity that does not specify direction

Hence if a trail runner zig-zags 15m to the west and then 15m to the east, the total distance will be the sum of the distance travelled both to the west and east.

total distance =  distance through west + distance through east

total distance = 15m + 15m

total distance = 30m

Hence the runner's total distance is 30m

b) Displacement is a vector quantity and it specifies direction. Hence we will take into consideration the direction taken

Since East direction is positive, the displacement through east is +15m

Since West direction is negative, the displacement through west is -15m

Total displacement  = +15 - 15

Total displacement = 0m

Hence the runner's total displacement is 0m
