Michelle got an average score of 80 on two tests. What score must
she get on the third test so that her average score for the three tests
is the same as the average score for the first two tests?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Michelle must get an 80 on her next test to keep her average score.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Michelle got an average score of 80 on two tests, to determine what score she must get on the third test so that her average score for the three tests is the same as the average score for the first two tests, the following calculation must be performed:

X / 2 = 80

X = 80 x 2

X = 160

X x 3 = 80 x 3

X x 3 = 240

X = 240/3

x = 80

So, Michelle must get an 80 on her next test to keep her average score.

Answers

Answer:

66 m².

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Diagonal 1 (d₁) = 11 m

Diagonal 2 (d₂) = 12 m

Area (A) =?

The area of a rhombus when the diagonals are given can be obtained as follow:

A = ½(d₁d₂)

A = ½ × (11 × 12)

A = ½ × 132

A = 66 m²

Thus, the area of the rhombus is 66 m²

A building 240 feet tall casts a 40 foot long shadow. If a person stands at the end of the shadow and looks up to the top of the building, what is the angle of the person's eyes to the top of the building (to the nearest hundredth of a degree)? (Assume the person's eyes are 4 feet above ground level.)

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  80.38°

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant trig relation is ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

The person is standing 40 ft from the building. The point they're looking at is 236 ft above their eyes. So the angle α is found from ...

  tan(α) = 236/40

  α = arctan(236/40) ≈ 80.38°

Answers

Answer:

Inequality is 15 = 7.5 + 1.5x

x = 5, he can buy 5 sour straws

Step-by-step explanation:

For the inequality, just set the total money he has (15) equal to the total cost of the nachos (7.5) and sour straws (1.5)

Since we don't know how many straws he can buy, use a variable, I used x.

You get 15 = 7.5 + 1.5x, which solved out gives you x = 5.

An equilateral triangle has a side length of 10 units. What is it’s area?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle = [tex]\frac{1}{2}ab\textrm{sin}(\theta)[/tex] where [tex]a[/tex] and [tex]b[/tex] are the sides of the triangle and [tex]\theta[/tex] is the angle between those two sides.

Answers

Answer:

Yuri made 947 more copies than Nathan.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are finding the difference from the amount Yuri and Nathan made, the operation is subtraction. Since Yuri made more copies, his number will go first: 1272-325. Then, we solve by subtracting the two numbers, and you should get 947.

Thus, Yuri made 947 more copies than Nathan.  

Bill launched a model rocket, and estimated its height h, in feet, after 1 seconds. His results are shown in the table.
Time to 1 2 3 4
Height, h 0 110 190 240 255
Bill's data can be modeled by the function h(t) = -16t2 + 128t.
Which value is the best prediction for the height of the rocket after 5.5 seconds?
A. 150 ft
B. 180 ft
C. 220 ft
D. 250 ft
E 260 ft

Answers

Answer:

22ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of Bills modeled by the function h(t) = -16t^2 + 128t.

To get his height after 5.5secs, we will replace t with 5.5 a shown;

h(t) = -16t^2 + 128t.

h(5.5) = -16(5.5)^2 + 128(5.5)

h(5.5) = =-484+704

h(5.5) = 220ft

Hence his height after 5.5secs is 22ft

Answers

complete question

study by Allstate Insurance Co. finds that 82% of teenagers have used cell phones while driving ( The Wall Street Journal , May 5, 2010). In October 2010, Massachusetts enacted a law that forbids cell phone use by drivers under the age of 18. A policy analyst would like to determine whether the law has decreased the proportion of drivers under the age of 18 who use a cell phone.a. State the null and the alternative hypotheses to test the policy analyst’s objective.

b. Suppose a sample of 200 drivers under the age of 18 results in 150 who still use a cell phone while driving. What is the value of the test statistic? What is the p-value?c. At α = 0.05 has the law been effective?

d. Repeat this exercise using the critical value approach with α = 0.05

Answer:

1. H0: p>=0.82

H1: p<0.82

2. z test statistic = -2.5767

3. the law has been effective

4. the null is rejected, the law has been effective

Step-by-step explanation:

1. hypothesis formulation

H0: p>= 0.82

H1: p< 0.82

2. p = 82% = 0.82

estimated p^ = x/n = 150/200 = 0.75

standard error calculation:

= √0.82(1-0.82)/200

= √0.82x0.18/200

= √0.02716615

Z test statistic calculation:

= 0.75-0.82/0.02716615

= -2.5767

3. this test is 1 tailed

the p-value using a p value calculator is = 0.004983

0.004983 < 0.05 so we Reject null and conclude that the law has been effective.

4. we Reject null at 0.05 if z is less than -1.645.

-2.5767<-1.645 so we Reject H0 and conclude law has been effective and there is a decrease in drivers under this age who use cell phones

11. A bicycle wheel turns 15 times in covering a distance of 66 m. Find the radius of the wheel​

Answers

Answer:

r = 10.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A bicycle wheel turns 15 times in covering a distance of 66 m.

We need to find the radius of the wheel.

The distance that a wheel travels in one rotation is simply the circumference of the circle.

[tex]2\pi r=66[/tex]

Where

r is the radius of the wheel

Put all the values,

[tex]r=\dfrac{66}{2\pi}\\\\r=\dfrac{66\times 7}{2\times 22}\\\\r=10.5\ m[/tex]

So, the radius of the wheel is equal to 10.5 m.  

Reflect across the x-axis. Then rotate the shape around point B' 120 degrees clockwise.​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflection across the x-axis just changes the signs of the y-coordinates. Rotation -120° about B' is difficult to do by hand. The transformation rule for that is ...

  (x, y) ⇒ (x·cos(-120°) +y·sin(-120°), -x·sin(-120°) +y·cos(-120°))

  (x, y) ⇒ ((-(x-3) +(y+2)√3)/2 +3, (-(x-3)√3 -(y+2))/2 -2)

It looks like your problem is presented in GeoGebra, which makes reflection and rotation easy.

An equivalent equation has been written by multiplying the second equation by 2.
4x – 9y = 7 → 4x – 9y = 7
2(–2x + 3y = 4) → –4x + 6y = 8

What is the solution to the system?

a: (-19/2, -5)
b: (-5, -19/2)
c: (-15/2, -11/3)
d: -19/10, 1/15)

Answers

Answer:

(-19/2, -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the two equivalent equations

4x – 9y = 7 .... 1

–4x + 6y = 8 ....2

Adding both equations

-9y + 6y = 7+8

-3y = 15

y = -15/3

y = -5

Substitute y = -5 into 1

From 1; 4x - 9y = 7

4x - 9(-5) = 7

4x + 45 = 7

4x = 7 - 45

4x = -38

x = -38/4

x = -19/2

Hence the solution is (-19/2, -5)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The value of A, the Net Salary received by Mr. Makatle is R 5,369.49 (R8,236,00 - R 2 866,51), which is the gross pay minus total deductions.

2. The UIF contribution of R82.36 was calculated as 1% of R8236,00 (R 8,236 x 1%).

3. Mr. Makatle's claims that the cumulative medical contributions indicated on his pay advice are incorrect are valid.

The cumulative medical contributions for the year are supposed to total R 17,640 (R 1 764,00 x 10) instead of R 6,177.00, which represents the pension's cumulative contributions.

4. Mr. Makatle's monthly tax contribution as a percentage of his gross salary is 4.8865%.

Tax contribution = R 402.45

Gross monthly salary = R 8 236

Percentage of tax contribution to gross salary = 4.8865% (R402.45/R8,236 x 100)

5. For question 2, we can use the rates computed from Mr. Makate's salary advice to calculate Danielle's net pay for the year.

Danielle's Net Pay:

Basic Salary                        FR 45 600,50

PAYE                                        R 2,228.27 (4.8865%)

UIF                                               R 456.01 (1%)

Pension Fund                        R 3 420. 04 (7.5%)

Medical Aid contribution        R 9,766.72  (21.418%)

TOTAL DEDUCTIONS           R 15,871.04

NET SALARY                       R 29,729.46

What is net pay?

The net pay is the difference between a salary earner's gross income and the deductions made before the payment of salary.

The net pay represents the amount that the salary earner goes home with.

The net pay is also known as the take-home pay.
