The temperature is 58° F. It gets warmer by h degrees and reaches to 65° F. Find h.
Answer:
h = 7 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
To find h, we know that it is positive because it increases in value, not decreases:
h = 65 - 58
h = 7
Answer:
h = 7°F
Step-by-step explanation:
58 + h = 65
h = 65 - 58
h = 7
Check:
68 + 7 = 65
Find two numbers in a given ratio such that the difference of their squares is to the sum of the numbers in a given ratio.Ratios, respectively, are 3 to 1 and 6 to 1.
According to the given situation, the computation of two number in a given ratio is shown below:-
We assume the numbers is x and y
Given that
[tex]\frac{x}{y} = \frac{3}{1}[/tex]
x = 3y
and
[tex]\frac{x^2-y^2}{x + y} = \frac{6}{1} \\\\\frac{(x + y) (x - y)}{(x + y)} = 6[/tex]
With the help of above formula we will put the value and be able to find the values of x and y
x - y = 6
3y - y = 6
2y = 6
y = 3
x = 3y = 9
x = 9, y = 3
Therefore the correct answer is x = 9 where as y = 3
In a Gallup poll of randomly selected adults, 66% said that they worry about identity theft. For a group of 1013 adults, the mean of those who do not worry about identify theft is closest to:
Answer:
[tex]Mean = 344[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Population = 1013[/tex]
Let p represents the proportion of those who worry about identity theft;
[tex]p = 66\%[/tex]
Required
Mean of those who do not worry about identity theft
First, the proportion of those who do not worry, has to be calculated;
Represent this with q
In probability;
[tex]p + q = 1[/tex]
Make q the subject of formula
[tex]q = 1 - p[/tex]
Substitute [tex]p = 66\%[/tex]
[tex]q = 1 - 66\%[/tex]
Convert percentage to fraction
[tex]q = 1 - 0.66[/tex]
[tex]q = 0.34[/tex]
Now, the mean can be calculated using:
[tex]Mean = nq[/tex]
Where n represents the population
[tex]Mean = 1013 * 0.34[/tex]
[tex]Mean = 344.42[/tex]
[tex]Mean = 344[/tex] (Approximated)

Step-by-step explanation:
A company is evaluating which of two alternatives should be used to produce a product that will sell for $35 per unit. The following cost information describes the two alternatives.
Process A Process B
Fixed Cost $500,000 $750,000
Variable Cost per Unit $25 $23
Requirement:;
i) Calculate the breakeven volume for Process A. (show calculation to receive credit)
ii) Calculate the breakeven volume for Process B. (show calculation to receive credit)
III) Directions: Show calculation below and Circle the letter of the correct answer.
If total demand (volume) is 120,000 units, then the company should
select Process A with a profit of $940,000 to maximize profit
select Process B with a profit of $450,000 to maximize profit
select Process A with a profit of $700,000 to maximize profit
select Process B with a profit of $690,000 to maximize profit
Answer:
A.50,000 units
B.62,500 units
C.Process A with a profit of $700,000 to maximize profit
Step-by-step explanation:
A.Calculation for the breakeven volume for Process A
Using this formula
Breakeven volume for Process A= Fixed cost/(Sales per units-Variable cost per units)
Let plug in the formula
Breakeven volume for Process A=500,000/(35-25)
Breakeven volume for Process A=500,000/10
Breakeven volume for Process A=50,000 units
B.Calculation for the breakeven volume for Process B
Using this formula
Breakeven volume for Process B= Fixed cost/(Sales per units-Variable cost per units)
Let plug in the formula
Breakeven volume for Process B=750,000/(35-23)
Breakeven volume for Process B=750,000/12
Breakeven volume for Process B=62,500 units
C. Calculation for what the company should do if the total demand (volume) is 120,000 units
Using this formula
Profit=(Total demand*(Sales per units-Variable cost per units for Process A)- Process A fixed cost
Let plug in the formula
Profit =120,000*($35-$25)-$500,000
Profit=120,000*10-$500,000
Profit=1,200,000-$500,000
Profit= $700,000
Therefore If total demand (volume) is 120,000 units, then the company should select Process A with a profit of $700,000 to maximize profit.
Suppose Miss Roxanne Davenport is 25 years old right now and puts away $1,800 per quarter in an account that returns 6% interest. a.) How much will be in the account when she turns 65? b.)What is her total contribution to the account?
Answer:
a. Total amount after 65 years = $1179415.39
b. The total contribution to the account = $288000
Step-by-step explanation:
Given annuity amount = $1800
Total number of years for contribution = 65 – 25 = 40 years
Interest rate = 6%
a. Total amount after 65 years = Annuity[((1+r)^n -1) / r]
Total amount after 65 years = 1800×((1+.06/4)^(4 × 40) - 1)/(.06/4)
Total amount after 65 years = $1179415.39
b. The total contribution to the account =1800 × 4 Quarter × 40 Years
The total contribution to the account = $288000
9. A college financial advisor wants to estimate the mean cost of textbooks per quarter for students at the college. For the estimate to be useful, it should have a margin of error of 20 dollars or less. The standard deviation of prices is estimated to be around 100 dollars. How large of a sample size needs to be used to be 95% confident, with the given margin of error?
Answer: 97
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula to compute the required sample size :
[tex]n= (\dfrac{\sigma\times z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2[/tex]
, where [tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation
E= Margin of error
[tex]z_{\alpha/2}[/tex] = Two tailed z-value.
Here, E= 20
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = 100
For 95% confidence level: [tex]z_{\alpha/2}[/tex] =1.96
Required sample size:
[tex]n=(\dfrac{100\times1.96}{20})^2\\\\=(5\times1.96)^2\\\\=96.04\approx97[/tex]
Hence, the required sample size : 97

X+y = 25.5....equation one
2.2x +7.3y = 25.5(5.7)
2.2x +7.3y = 145.35.....equation two
X+y = 25.5
2.2x +7.3y = 145.35
Solving simultaneously
X= 25.5-y
Substituting value of X into equation two
2.2(25.5-y) + 7.3y = 145.35
56.1 -2.2y +7.3y = 145.35
5.1y = 145.35-56.1
5.1y = 89.25
Y= 89.25/5.1
Y= 17.5
X= 25.5-y
X= 25.5-17.5
X= 8
Mia agreed to borrow a 3 year loan with 4 percent interest to buy a motorcycle if Mia will pay a total of $444 in interest how much money did she borrow how much interest would Mia pay if the simple interest rate was 5 percent
Answer:
a) $3700
b) $555
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the loan is 3 years.
The interest after 3 years is $444.
The rate of the Simple Interest is 4%.
Simple Interest is given as:
I = (P * R * T) / 100
where P = principal (amount borrowed)
R = rate
T = length of years
Therefore:
[tex]444 = (P * 3 * 4) / 100\\\\444 = 12P / 100\\\\12P = 444 * 100\\\\12P = 44400\\\\P = 44400 / 12\\[/tex]
P = $3700
She borrowed $3700
b) If the simple interest was 5%, then:
I = (3700 * 5 * 3) / 100 = $555
The interest would be $555.

How many solutions does the following equation have? 14(z+3)=14z+21
Answer:
No solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
14(z + 3) = 14z + 21
Expand brackets.
14z + 42 = 14z + 21
Subtract 14z on both sides.
42 = 21
There are no solutions.
Answer:
No solution
Step-by-step explanation:
First, We have to simplify the right side.
Distribute 14, 14z+42.
Now the equation stands as 14z+42=14z+21
Subtract 14z from both sides,
this makes it 42=21.
We know when the solution is #=#, our answer is no solution.

Similar triangles have side lengths that are proportional to each other. To find each of the missing lengths, we need to set up proportions.
The proportions will look as follows:
(length or unknown of triangle 1) / (length or unknown of triangle 2) = (length of triangle 1) / (length of triangle 2)
-On both sides, remember to be consistent with which length/unknown you put on top! If a triangle 1 length is the numerator on the left, then it also needs to be the numerator on the right! And this also works vice versa with triangle 2.
In each proportion equation, we can only have one unknown. On the left side of the equation, we choose one length or unknown of triangle 1, and the corresponding side length of unknown of triangle 2 (whichever you did not choose from triangle 1). On the right side of the equation, we use a completed proportion. This is because all of the sides of one triangle are proportional to the other triangle, but we need to know that proportion/ratio in order to find other side lengths.
Let's start with problem a, to show how this works:
Triangle 1 side lengths - 16, a, 11
Triangle 2 side lengths - 8, 3, b
As you can tell, the side lengths match up (corresponding!) on each triangle, as in they are in the same position on each triangle. Now, we will set up a proportion to find the length of side a on triangle 1.
a / 3 = 16 / 8
48 = 8a
a = 6
Next, let's find the length of side b on triangle 2.
11 / b = 16 / 8
16b = 88
b = 5.5
Moving on to problem b, we'll apply the same concept and steps from problem a in order to find the missing side lengths.
Triangle 1 side lengths: 5, 5.5, d
Triangle 2 side lengths: 15, c, 18
5 / 15 = 5.5 / c
5c = 82.5
c = 16.5
5 / 15 = d / 18
15d = 90
d = 6
Hope this helps!! :)
Answer:
On a) you can see the shapes are simular. The blue line signatures that they are equal just reduced. You can see that 8 goes into 16 two times so for the orange line 3 must times 2. Which would mean a is 6. Now on the red line all you see is 11. So divide 11 by 2 and your answer should be 5.5 for b.
On b) it is the same thing but you have to find how the blue line is divisible. 5 divided by 15 is 3. So 3 is the number you will be using to divide or multiply. For the orange line you divide 18 by 3. The answer is 6 for d. For the red line 5.5 times 3 and you should get 11 for c.

Use all the information below to find the missing x-value for the point that is on this line. m = - 1 / 3 b = 7 ( x, 4 )
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{x = 9}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
m = -1/3
b = 7
And y = 4 (Given)
Putting all of the givens in [tex]y = mx+b[/tex] to solve for x
=> 4 = (-1/3) x + 7
Subtracting 7 to both sides
=> 4-7 = (-1/3) x
=> -3 = (-1/3) x
Multiplying both sides by -3
=> -3 * -3 = x
=> 9 = x
OR
=> x = 9
Answer:
x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
m = -1/3
b = 7
Using slope-intercept form:
y = mx + b
m is slope, b is y-intercept.
y = -1/3x + 7
Solve for x:
Plug y as 4
4 = 1/3x + 7
Subtract 7 on both sides.
-3 = -1/3x
Multiply both sides by -3.
9 = x

Determine whether 52c2y4 is a monomial, binomial, trinomial, or other polynomial.
Answer: Monomial.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, when we have a polynomial with only one term, this is a monomial.
If the polynomial has two terms, this is a binomial.
If the polynomial has 3 terms, this is a trinomial.
And so on.
In this particular case we have:
52*c^2*y^4
Where c and y may be variables.
We can see that here we have only one term, so this would be a monomial.
(notice that the number of variables does not affect the type of polynomial in this case, only the number of terms)
Answer:
binomial.
Step-by-step explanation:
The polynomial −50c3z3−41y220z4 has 2 terms, so it is a binomial.
Scores made on a certain aptitude test by nursing students are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 500 and a variance of 10,000. If a person is about to take the test what is the probability that he or she will make a score of 650 or more?
Answer:
0.0668 or 6.68%
Step-by-step explanation:
Variance (V) = 10,000
Standard deviation (σ) = √V= 100
Mean score (μ) = 500
The z-score for any test score X is:
[tex]z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
For X = 650:
[tex]z=\frac{650-500}{100}\\z=1.5[/tex]
A z-score of 1.5 is equivalent to the 93.32nd percentile of a normal distribution. Therefore, the probability that he or she will make a score of 650 or more is:
[tex]P(X\geq 650)=1-P(X\leq 650)\\P(X\geq 650)=1-0.9332\\P(X\geq 650)=0.0668=6.68\%[/tex]
The probability is 0.0668 or 6.68%
The probability that he or she will make a score of 650 or more is 0.0668.
Let X = Scores made on a certain aptitude test by nursing students
X follows normal distribution with mean = 500 and variance of 10,000.
So, standard deviation = [tex]\sqrt{10000}=100[/tex].
z score of 650 is = [tex]\frac{\left(650-500\right)}{100}=1.5[/tex].
The probability that he or she will make a score of 650 or more is:
[tex]P(X\geq 650)\\=P(z\geq 1.5)\\=1-P(z<1.5)\\=1-0.9332\\=0.0668[/tex]

convert the equation y= -4x + 2/3 into general form equation and find t the values of A,B and C.
Answer:
Standard form: [tex]12x+3y-2=0[/tex]
A = 12, B = 3 and C = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The equation:
[tex]y= -4x + \dfrac{2}3[/tex]
To find:
The standard form of given equation and find A, B and C.
Solution:
First of all, let us write the standard form of an equation.
Standard form of an equation is represented as:
[tex]Ax+By+C=0[/tex]
A is the coefficient of x and can be positive or negative.
B is the coefficient of y and can be positive or negative.
C can also be positive or negative.
Now, let us consider the given equation:
[tex]y= -4x + \dfrac{2}3[/tex]
Multiplying the whole equation with 3 first:
[tex]3 \times y= 3 \times -4x + 3 \times \dfrac{2}3\\\Rightarrow 3y=-12x+2[/tex]
Now, let us take all the terms on one side:
[tex]\Rightarrow 3y+12x-2=0\\\Rightarrow 12x+3y-2=0[/tex]
Now, let us compare with [tex]Ax+By+C=0[/tex].
So, A = 12, B = 3 and C = -2
A living room is two times as long and one and one-half times as wide as a bedroom. The amount of
carpet needed for the living room is how many times greater than the amount of carpet needed for the
bedroom?
1 1/2
2
3
3 1/2
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
let's call X the length of the bedroom, Y the wide of the bedroom, A the length of the living room and B the wide of the living room
A living room is two times as long as the bedroom, so:
A = 2X
A living room is one and one-half times as wide as a bedroom, so:
B = 1.5Y
The amount of carpet needed for the living room is A*B and the amount of carpet needed by the bedroom is X*Y
So, AB in terms of XY is:
A*B = (2X)*(1.5Y) = 3(X*Y)
It means that the amount of c arpet needed for the living room is 3 times greater than the amount of carpet needed for the bedroom.

(What is the product) How does the elevation of the airplane change in that hour? The elevation of the airplane _________ by ______ km. increases 60 decreases 9 0.15
WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST, THANKS AND FIVE STARS
Answer:
The elevation of the airplane decreases by 9 km.
Step-by-step explanation:
We use the distance-rate-time formula: d = rt.
Here, the rate is r = 0.15 km/min and the time is t = 60 min. Simply plug these into the formula:
d = rt
d = 0.15 * 60 = 9 km
So, the change in elevation in the last 60 minutes is 9 km. However, note that the rate is negative (-0.15 km/min), which means that the elevation actually is decreasing.
Thus, the answer is: the elevation of the airplane decreases by 9 km.

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

To find the y coordinate of the midpoint, add the x coordinates and divide by 2
( -11+-16)/2 = -27/2= - 13.5
Historically, the proportion of students entering a university who finished in 4 years or less was 63%. To test whether this proportion has decreased, 114 students were examined and 51% had finished in 4 years or less. To determine whether the proportion of students who finish in 4 year or less has statistically significantly decreased (at the 5% level of signficance), what is the critical value
Answer:
z(c) = - 1,64
We reject the null hypothesis
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to solve a proportion test ( one tail-test ) left test
Normal distribution
p₀ = 63 %
proportion size p = 51 %
sample size n = 114
At 5% level of significance α = 0,05, and with this value we find in z- table z score of z(c) = 1,64 ( critical value )
Test of proportion:
H₀ Null Hypothesis p = p₀
Hₐ Alternate Hypothesis p < p₀
We now compute z(s) as:
z(s) = ( p - p₀ ) / √ p₀q₀/n
z(s) =( 0,51 - 0,63) / √0,63*0,37/114
z(s) = - 0,12 / 0,045
z(s) = - 2,66
We compare z(s) and z(c)
z(s) < z(c) - 2,66 < -1,64
Therefore as z(s) < z(c) z(s) is in the rejection zone we reject the null hypothesis
