The ratio of oranges in a fruit salad to people it will serve is 9/40, or 9:40. If Lisa wants to serve 800 people, how many oranges will Lisa use?

Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer is 180 oranges

Explanation:

In mathematics, a ratio expresses two or more numbers that are related. In the case fo the ration 9: 40 this expresses 9 oranges are used to serve fruit salad for 40 people. Now, if you need to determine what is the number of oranges not for 40 people but for 800 people you can use cross multiplication. This process is explained below:

[tex]\frac{9}{40} = \frac{x}{800}[/tex]   - 1. Multiply  9 x 800 and 40 x x (cross multiplication)

[tex]7200 = 40x[/tex] - 2. Solve the equation by diving 7200 into 40

[tex]\frac{7200}{40} = x[/tex]

[tex]x = 180[/tex] - 3. 180 represents the number of oranges to serve 800 people, which   can be expressed as 180: 800

A cash register has $10 and $50 dollars bills with total of $1080.there are 28 bills in total how many of each bills.

Answers

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's set this up as a system of equations, where x is equal to the number of 10 dollar bills and y is equal to the number of 50 dollar bills.

10x+50y=1080

x+y=28

We want to solve for x or y. We can rearrange the second equation to find the value of one of the variables.

x+y=28

Subtract x from both sides.

y=28-x

Now, we have a value for y. So, we could replace the y in the first equation with 28-x and the solve for x.

10x+50(28-x)=1080

We use distributive property to undo the parentheses.

10x+1400-50x=1080

We combine like terms.

-40x+1400=1080

We subtract 1400 from both sides.

-40x=-320

We divide both sides by -40.

x=8

Since there are 28 total bills, this means that there must be 20 50 dollar ones because there are 8 10 dollar bills.

Answers

Answer:

3057.6 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

You have a cylinder and a rectangular prism.  Solve for the area of each separately.

Cylinder

The formula for volume of a cylinder is V = πr²h.  The radius is 7, and the height is 7.

V = πr²h

V = π(7)²(7)

V = π(49)(7)

V = 343π

V = 1077.57 cm³

Rectangular Prism

The formula for volume of a rectangular prism is V = lwh.  The length is 20, the width is 11, and the height is 9.

V = lwh

V = (20)(11)(9)

V = (220)(9)

V = 1980 cm³

Add the areas of the two shapes.

1077.57 cm³ + 1980 cm³ = 3057.57 cm³

Round to the nearest tenth.

3057.57 cm³ ≈ 3057.6 cm³

Answer:

18.9 units of fencing

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the perimeter

P = 2(l+w)

P = 2( 2.5+1.28)

P = 2( 3.78)

P =7.56m

We need 2.5 units of fencing for each meter

Multiply by 2.5

7.56*2.5

18.9 units of fencing

Answer:

Julio needs to purchase 18.9 units of fencing.

Step-by-step explanation:

I meter of the perimeter accounts for 2.5 units of fencing. Respectively 2 meters account for 2 times as much, and 3 meters account for 3 times as much of 2.5 units. Therefore, if we determine the perimeter of this rectangular garden, then we can determine the units of fencing by multiplying by 2.5.

As you can see this is a 2.5 by 1.28 garden. The perimeter would be two times the supposed length, added to two times the width.

2.5 x 2 + 1.28 x 2 = 5 + 2.56 = 7.56 - this is the perimeter. The units of fencing should thus be 7.56 x 2.5 = 18.9 units, or option d.

Find the mean of the given probability distribution.
A. μ = 3.35
B. μ = 3.50
C. μ = 3.60
D. μ = 3.40

Answers

Answer:

C. μ = 3.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Two tables have been attached to this response.

One of the tables contains the given data and distribution with two columns: Houses Sold and Probability

The other table contains the analysis of the data with additional columns: Frequency and Fx

=> The Frequency(F) column is derived from the product of the probability of each item in the Houses sold column and the total number of houses sold (which is 28). For example,

When the number of houses sold = 0

F = P(0) x Total number of houses sold

F = 0.24 x 28 = 6.72

When the number of houses sold = 1

F = P(1) x Total number of houses sold

F = 0.01 x 28 = 0.28

=> The Fx column is found by multiplying the Frequency column by the Houses Sold column. For example,

When the number of houses sold = 0

Fx = F * x

F = 6.72 x 0 = 0

Now to get the mean, μ we use the relation;

μ = ∑Fx / ∑F

Where;

∑Fx = summation of the items in the Fx column = 100.8

∑F = summation of the items in the Frequency column = 28

μ = 100.8 / 28

μ = 3.60

Therefore, the mean of the given probability distribution is 3.60

The mean of the discrete probability distribution is given by:

The  99%  confidence interval is

                     [tex]37.167< \= x < 44.833[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The sample size is  [tex]n = 29[/tex]

  The  sample mean is  [tex]\= x =[/tex]$41

  The  sample standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma =[/tex]$8

   The  level of confidence is [tex]C =[/tex]99%

Given that the confidence level id  99% the level of confidence is evaluated as

        [tex]\alpha = 100 - 99[/tex]

        [tex]\alpha = 1[/tex]%

Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table which is  

      [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 2.58[/tex]

The reason we are obtaining values for  is because  is the area under the normal distribution curve for both the left and right tail where the 99% interval did not cover while   is the area under the normal distribution curve for just one tail and we need the  value for one tail in order to calculate the confidence interval

Next we evaluate the margin of error which is mathematically represented as

          [tex]MOE = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

(11π/9 )ft/s

Step by step Explanation

Let us denote the height as h ft

But we were told that The diameter of the base of the cone is approximately three times the altitude, then

Let us denote the diameter = 3h ft, and the radius is 3h/2

The volume of the cone is

V = (1/3)π r^2 h

Then if we substitute the values we have

= (1/3)π (9h^2/4)(h) = (3/4)π h^3

dV/dt = (9/4)π h^2 dh/dt

We were given as 22feet and rate of 8 cubic feet per minute

h = 22

dV/dt = 8

8= (9/4)π (22) dh/dt

= 11π/9ft/s

Therefore, the rate is the height of the pile changing when the pile is 22 feet is

Answers

The company must produce and sell 350 dishwashers in order to maximize profit.

How to determine  the number of dishwashers

To determine the number of dishwashers the company must produce and sell in order to maximize profit, we need to find the value of x that corresponds to the maximum point of the profit function.

The profit (P) is given by the equation:

P(x) = Revenue - Cost

The revenue is calculated by multiplying the price per dishwasher (p) by the number of dishwashers sold (x):

Revenue = p * x

The cost is given by the function C(x):

Cost = C(x)

Therefore, the profit function can be expressed as:

P(x) = p * x - C(x)

Substituting the given expressions for p and C(x):

P(x) = (420 - 0.3x) * x - (5000 + 0.3x²)

Expanding and simplifying the equation:

P(x) = 420x - 0.3x² - 5000 - 0.3x²

Combining like terms:

P(x) = -0.6x² + 420x - 5000

To find the value of x that maximizes profit, we need to find the vertex of the quadratic function. The x-coordinate of the vertex can be determined using the formula:

x = -b / (2a)

In our case, a = -0.6 and b = 420:

x = -420 / (2 * -0.6)

x = -420 / (-1.2)

x = 350

350 dishwashers must the company produce and sell in order to maximize profit.

Maxima means a point at which the function attains the maximum value.

Given the following information:

Price per dishwasher, p = 420 - 0.3x

Total cost of producing x dishwashers, C(x) = 5000 + 0.3x2

Profit= Total Selling price- Total Cost Price

Total Selling price of x dishwasher, S.P= xp

S.P=x(420 - 0.3x)

S.P=420x - 0.3x²

Profit= 420x - 0.3x² - ( 5000 + 0.3x²)

Profit= 420x - 0.3x² - 5000 - 0.3x²

Profit=  -0.6x²+420x-5000

So, profit, f(x)=-0.6x²+420x-5000

To determine the value of x so that maximum profit is possible:

1. Calculate the first derivative of profit function and calculate the value of x by equating it to zero.

2. Select that value of x for which the profit function attains the maximum value, to check the maxima calculate 2nd derivative, if it gives a negative value for the value of x. Then, x is the point of maxima for the given function.

[tex]f(x)=-0.6x^2+420x-5000\\f\prime(x)=-1.2x+420\\f\prime(x)=0\\-1.2x+420=0[/tex]

Calculating the value of x by transposing,

x=420/1.2

x=350

To check maxima, calculating second derivative.

[tex]f\prime(x)=-1.2x+420=0\\f\prime\prime(x)=-1.2[/tex]

2nd derivative is negative, it means that x=350 is the point of maxima.

What is an outlier?

An outlier in statistics is a data point that deviates considerably from other observations. An outlier can be caused by measurement variability or by experimental mistake; the latter is sometimes eliminated from the data set.

To find the outlier for the given data set follow the given steps.

Step one: The first step is to find the quartiles for the data set.

For this data set, the quartiles are:

Q1 = 45.5

Q3 = 62.5

Step Two: Find the Interquartile Range

The interquartile range is the difference between the first and third quartiles.

IQR = Q3 - Q1

IQR = 45.5 - 62.5

IQR = 17

Step Three:

The next step is to set up a fence beyond the first and third quartiles using the interquartile range.

Lower Fence = Q1 - (1.5 × IQR)

Lower Fence = 45.5 - (1.5 × 17)

Lower Fence = 20

Upper Fence = Q3 + (1.5 × IQR)

Upper Fence = 62.5 + (1.5 × 17)

Upper Fence = 88

Step Four: Find the Outliers

Any numbers in the data that are above or below the fences are outliers.

Since there are no numbers outside the two fences. Hence, it can be concluded that the given data set does not have, any outlier.

Where x represents the age (in months)

And y represents the time (in seconds) taken by Stephen to run two laps on the track.

Time taken to run 2 laps at the age of 192 months,

By substituting x = 192 months,

y = -2.1(192) + 565.6

  = -403.2 + 565.6

  = 162.4 seconds

  ≈ 162 seconds

Therefore, time taken by Stephen to cover 2 laps was 162 seconds when he was 192 months old.

A father's age is 4 times as that of his son's age. in 5 years time, the father will be 3 times as old as his son. what are their present ages?​

Answers

Answer:

present age of son = 10 present age of father = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, present age of son be 'x'

present age of father be 'y'

y = 4x→ equation ( i )

After five years,

Son's age = x + 5

father's age = y + 5

According to Question,

[tex]y + 5 = 3(x + 5)[/tex]

Put the value of y from equation ( i )

[tex]4x + 5 = 3(x + 5)[/tex]

Distribute 3 through the parentheses

[tex]4x + 5 = 3x + 15[/tex]

Move variable to L.H.S and change it's sign

Similarly, Move constant to R.H.S. and change its sign

[tex]4x - 3x = 15 - 5[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]x = 15 - 5[/tex]

Calculate the difference

[tex]x = 10[/tex]

Now, put the value of X in equation ( i ) in order to find the present age of father

[tex]y = 4x[/tex]

plug the value of X

[tex] = 4 \times 10[/tex]

Calculate the product

[tex] = 40[/tex]

Therefore,

Present age of son = 10

present age of father = 40

Hope this helps..

Best regards!!

Shawn has 25 coins, all nickels and dimes. The total value is $2.00. How many of each coin does he have ?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{15 \ dime \ and \ 10 \ nickel \ coins}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1 dime = 10 cents

1 nickel = 5 cents

So,

If there are 15 dimes

=> 15 dimes = 15*10 cents

=> 15 dimes = 150 cents

=> 15 dimes = $1.5

Rest is $0.5

So, for $0.5 we have 10 nickels coins

=> 10 nickels = 10*5

=> 10 nickels = 50 cents

=> 10 nickel coins = $0.5

Together it makes $2.00

What is the focus of the parabola? y=−1/4x2−x+3

Answers

Answer:  Focus = (-2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x^2-x+3\\\\\rightarrow a=-\dfrac{1}{4},\ b=-1[/tex]

First let's find the vertex. We do that by finding the Axis-Of-Symmetry:

[tex]AOS: x=\dfrac{-b}{2a}\quad =\dfrac{-(-1)}{2(\frac{-1}{4})}=\dfrac{1}{-\frac{1}{2}}=-2[/tex]

Then finding the maximum by inputting x = -2 into the given equation:

[tex]y=-\dfrac{1}{4}(-2)^2-(-2)+3\\\\y=-1+2+3\\\\y=4[/tex]

The vertex is: (-2, 4)

Now let's find p, which is the distance from the vertex to the focus:

[tex]a=\dfrac{1}{4p}\\\\\\-\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{1}{4p}\\\\\\p=-1[/tex]

The vertex is (-2, 4) and p = -1

The focus is (-2, 4 + p) = (-2, 4 - 1) = (-2, 3)

(4,0) and (-2, 1) has a slope of?

A. -6
B. -1/6
C. 1/2
D. 2
E. 1/6

Answers

Answer:

b. -1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = (difference in y)/(difference in x)

slope = (1 - 0)/(-2 - 4) = 1/(-6) = -1/6

Answer:

m = -1/6 = B

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\ x_1=4\\ y_1=0\\ x_2=-2\\y_2=1.\\m = \frac{1-0}{-2-4} \\m = \frac{1}{-6}[/tex]
