Byron is 2 years younger than Cindy. Eight
years ago, the sum of their ages was 14.
How old is Byron now?​

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let age of Byron be b yr old and Cindy be c yr old.

c = b + 2 --(1)

b - 8 + c - 8 = 14

b + c = 30 --(2)

sub (1) into (2):

2b = 28

b = 14

therefore Byron is 14 yr old now.

Answer 2

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Byron is 2 yrs younger than Cindy. 8 years ago the sum of their ages was 14.

Byron is 2 years at that time. Definitely, Cindy is 12 years old so the sum of their ages was 14. Let us just add 8 years to Byron's age at that time so 2 + 8 = 10

P.S: This just based on my understanding of the problem.

Answer:

Answer: D 12,16,20

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagora's Theorem

On a right triangle with side lengths of a,b, and c, being c the hypotenuse, of the longest side, it follows that:

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

The set {a,b,c} is often called a Pythagorean Triple.

Testing every option:

A

[tex]5^2+8^2=10^2[/tex]

[tex]25+64 = 100[/tex]

89 = 100

Since equality is false, 5,8,10 are not the side lengths of a right triangle.

B

[tex]3^2+5^2=7^2[/tex]

[tex]9+25 = 49[/tex]

34 = 49

Since equality is false, 3,5,7 are not the side lengths of a right triangle.

C

[tex]6^2+11^2=13^2[/tex]

[tex]36+121 = 169[/tex]

157 = 169

Since equality is false, 6,11,13 are not the side lengths of a right triangle.

D

[tex]12^2+16^2=20^2[/tex]

[tex]144+256 = 400[/tex]

400 = 400

Since equality is true, 12,16,20 could be the side lengths of a right triangle.

About 1/5 of all adults in the United States have type O blood. If four randomly selected adults donate blood, find the probability of each of the following events.

a. All four are type O.
b. None of them is type O.
c. Two out of the four are type O .

Answers

Answer:

We know that:

1/5 = 0.2 of all adults in US have type O blood.

Then: 4/5 = 0.8 of all adults in US do not have type O blood.

a)  All four are type O.

Let's think this, as four events with two possible outcomes, having type O blood, with a probability of 0.2, and not having type O blood with a probability of 0.8

Now if we want the four people to have type O blood, then we have the outcome with probability 0.2 four times, and as we know, the joint probability is equal to the product of the individual probabilities:

P  =0.2^4 = 0.0016

b) None of them is type O.

Similar to the above case, but this time we work with four times the probability 0.8

P = 0.8^4 = 04096

c) Two of the four are type O.

Here we will have two times the probability 0.2, and two times the probability 0.8.

p = 0.2^2*0.8^2

But, if the people is ordered, the two persons with type O blood can be:

first and second

first and third

first and fourth.

second and third

second and fourth

third and fourth.

6 different combinations, then the actual probability for this case will be:

P = 6*p = 6*(0.2^2*0.8^2) = 0.1536

The probability of All four are type O, None of them is type O, and Two out of the four are type O is 0.0016, 0.4096, and 0.0256 respectively.

What is probability?

Probability means possibility. It deals with the occurrence of a random event. The value of probability can only be from 0 to 1. Its basic meaning is something is likely to happen. It is the ratio of the favorable event to the total number of events.

About 1/5 of all adults in the United States have type O blood.

p = 0.2

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8

a. All four are type O. The probability will be

P = p⁴  

P = 0.2⁴

P = 0.0016

b. None of them is type O. The probability will be

P = q⁴  

P = 0.8⁴

P = 0.4096

c. Two out of the four are type O. The probability will be

P = p² × q²  

P = 0.2² × 0.8²

P = 0.04 × 0.64

P = 0.0256

Estimate 511 x 637 by first rounding each number so that it only has 1 nonzero digit.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

511 * 637 = 500 * 600

              = 300000

511. Here ten's place is 1 and its <= 5. So, it is 500

637. Here ten's place is 3 and its <= 5. So, it is 600

Answer:

300,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Rounding so that a number only has 1 nonzero digit means that you should round to the nearest hundred. Remember when rounding look to the digit to the right of where you are rounding to, if that is 4 or less round down and if it is 5 or greater round up. So to round 511 look at the tens place, since it is less than 4 it rounds to 500. To round 637 look at the tens place, since it is also less than 4 round down to 600. Then to multiply 500 x 600 just multiply the first digits, 5 x 6=30, then add the zeros. In total there were 4 zeros in the estimated equation so the final answer would be 300 plus four zeros.

So 500 x 600=300,000

Snow Dome Ski Resort has 65 inches of snow. It is currently snowing there at a rate of 1 inch per hour. Mt. Winterpark Ski Resort has 74 inches of snow. Currently it is snowing there at a rate of ½ inch per hour.

a) Write equations that show the amount of snow at each resort as a function of the number of hours of snow.

b) If the snow continues at this rate, when will Snow Dome have more snow than Mt. Winterpark? Show your solution process clearly.

Answers

Answer:

a) Equation for Snow Dome Ski Resort:

[tex]I_s = 65+t[/tex]

Equation for Mt. Winterpark Ski Resort:

[tex]I_m = 74+\frac{t}{2}[/tex]

b) After 19 hours, Snow dome will have more snow.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Initial snow at Snow Dome Ski Resort = 65 inches

Snowing rate at Snow Dome Ski Resort = 1 inch per hour

Initial snow at Mt. Winterpark Ski Resort = 74 inches

Initial snow at Mt. Winterpark Ski Resort = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] inch per hour

a) To write equations that show amount of snow at each resort.

Let the time in hours be represented by [tex]t[/tex].

Snow increased in [tex]t[/tex] hours by snowing at Snow Dome Ski Resort = [tex]1\times t = t[/tex] inches per hour

Snow increased in [tex]t[/tex] hours by snowing at Mt. Winterpark Ski Resort = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\times t = \frac{t}{2}[/tex] inches per hour

Equation for Snow Dome Ski Resort:

[tex]I_s = 65+t[/tex]

Equation for Mt. Winterpark Ski Resort:

[tex]I_m = 74+\frac{t}{2}[/tex]

b) Time at which Snow Dome has more snow.

Using the above equations, we can write the following inequality:

[tex]65+t>74+\dfrac{t}{2}\\\Rightarrow t-\dfrac{t}{2}>74-65\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{t}{2}>9\\\Rightarrow t>18\ hours[/tex]

After 18 hours have passed, they will have equal amount of snow.

After 19 hours, Snow dome will have more snow.

what fraction is equal to 4.5

Answers

Answer:

9/2

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to find the fraction form of 4.5... we need to set a denominator. The denominator has to be greater than 1 because we 4.5 is not a whole number...

we want the simplest denominator in the end... so we'll pick 2 for a denominator and change it if it doesn't work in the end...

now that we know the denominator... we have to make the numerator 4 times larger than the denominator (2)... when we do this... we get 8/2

since we made the numerator 4 times larger than the denominator... we know that 8/2 is the same as 4

now we need to find the remaining 1/2

this can be done by simply adding 1/2 to 8/2 (which is easily done thanks to a common denominator)

Since 9/2 cannot be simplified any further... it is our final answer

There are two scenarios, because the expression under the module can be positive and can be negative: | 3x + 2| - 2 > 3 ⇔  | 3x + 2| > 5

(1). If (3x + 2) is positive then

3x + 2 > 5 ⇒ x > 3

(2). If (3x + 2) is negative then

- (3x + 2) > 5

- 3x - 2 > 5

- 3x > 7 ⇒ x < - [tex]\frac{7}{3}[/tex]

The final answer is x < - 2.3 or x > 1
