How long did Wolfrich live in Portugal, and how long did he live in Brazil

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Wolfrich lived in Brazil for 5 months and 9 months in Portugal

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Total Months = 14

Total Words = 1920

Required

Find the time spent in Portugal and time spent in Brazil

Let P represent Portugal and B represent Brazil; This implies that

[tex]P + B = 14[/tex] ---- Equation 1

Considering that he learnt 130 words per month in Portugal and 150 per month in Brazil; This implies that

[tex]130P + 150B = 1920[/tex] --- Equation 2

Make P the subject of formula in equation 1

[tex]P = 14 - B[/tex]

Substitute 14 - B for P in equation 2

[tex]130(14 - B) + 150B = 1920[/tex]

Open Bracket

[tex]1820 - 130B + 150B = 1920[/tex]

[tex]1820 + 20B = 1920[/tex]

Subtract 1820 from both sides

[tex]1820 - 1820 + 20B = 1920 - 1820[/tex]

[tex]20B = 100[/tex]

Divide both sides by 20

[tex]\frac{20B}{20} = \frac{100}{20}[/tex]

[tex]B = 5[/tex]

Substitute 5 for B in [tex]P = 14 - B[/tex]

[tex]P = 14 - 5[/tex]

[tex]P = 9[/tex]

Wolfrich lived in Brazil for 5 months and 9 months in Portugal

please help :) Which number is greater than 3.14159 × 10 to the 4 power? A. 5,678,889 B. 9.897752 x 10 to the 6 power C. 71,224,900 D. 2.468 × 10 to the 7 power

Answers

Answer: C. 71,224,900

Based on the power, move the decimal point that many spaces to the right. (e.g., If it's 7.9 × 10^3, then move the decimal three spaces to the right, and you'd get 7900.)

3.14159 × 10^7 = 31415900

9.897752 × 10^6 = 9897752

2.468 × 10^7 = 24680000

Out of all the numbers mentioned in the question, 71,224,900 is the only one that's greater than 3.14159 × 10^7 = 31415900.

The rectangular classroom is 36ft in length and 32 feet in with. The scale drawing of the floor has a length of 9 inches. What is the area, in square inches, of the floor in the scale drawing? Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

72 inch²

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangular classroom

Length=36ft

Width=32ft

scale drawing length = 9 inches

Scale drawing width=x

Ratio of the length to the scale drawing length = 36/9

Ratio of the width to the scale drawing width=32/x

To find x

36/9=32/x

Cross product

36x=32*9

x=288/36

=8

x=8

Area of a rectangle= length × width

Length=9 inches

Width=8 inches

Area of the rectangular classroom= 9 inches × 8 inches

=72 inch²

What is Standard Deviation?

The standard deviation is a measure of the amount of variation or dispersion of a set of values.

Here, given data

data(x)      frequency(f)                     xf                 d² = (x-mean)²       fd²

8                       3                               24                      0                       0

9                       1                                9                         1                       1

11                       1                                11                        9                      9

mean = ∑xf / ∑f

          = (12+24+9+11)/(2+3+1+1)

          = 56 / 7

mean = 8

Variance = ∑fd²/∑f

               = 18 / 7

              = 2.57

Standard Deviation = √variance

                                = √2.57

                               = 1.6

Thus, the standard deviation of the data set is 1.6

f(x) = 4x^4 – 2x^3 – 3x^2 + 6x - 9 Find the Zeros Using Descartes' Rule of Signs

Answers

Answer:

So possibilities of zeroes are:

Positive       Negative       Imaginary

   1                    1                   2

   3                   1                   0

Zeroes = -1.4549, 1.2658, 0.34457-1.0503i, 0.34457+1.0503i.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: Descartes' Rule of Signs is used to find the signs of zeroes not the exact value.

The given function is

[tex]f(x)=4x^4-2x^3-3x^2+6x-9[/tex]

Degree of polynomial is 4 so number of zeroes is 4.

There are three sign changes, so there are either 3 positive zeros or 1 positive zero.

Now, put x=-x in f(x).

[tex]f(-x)=4(-x)^4-2(-x)^3-3(-x)^2+6(-x)-9[/tex]

[tex]f(-x)=4x^4+2x^3-3x^2-6x-9[/tex]

There is one variation in sign change, so there is 1 negative zero.

So possibilities of zeroes are:

Positive       Negative       Imaginary

   1                    1                   2

   3                   1                   0

y = 16 - it's a horizontal line. It's an equation of a linear function

length of a rectangle is 3 times its width.If its perimeter is 24 centimetres what is the area of the rectangle?​

Answers

Answer:

27 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The length is 3 × width.

l = 3w

The perimeter is 24 centimeters.

P = 2l + 2w

24 = 2(3w) + 2w

24 = 6w + 2w

24 = 8w

3 = w

The width is 3 centimeters.

l = 3(3)

l = 9

The length is 9 centimeters.

Area is l × w.

A = l × w

A = 9 × 3

A = 27

The area is 27 squared centimeters.

Answer:

27

Width= x

Length= x × 3 =3x

so, 3x+3x+x+x=24

8x=24

x=24/8

x=3

so, length=3(3)=9

width=3

therefore,

Area=9×3

Answer:

73 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A Shaped Frame of two congruent sides

Required

Determine the angle made with the ground

Given that there are two congruent sides, this implies that the A frame is an isosceles triangle;

Let the two angles made with the ground be represented by x

Angles in a triangle when added equals 180;

Hence;

[tex]x + x + 34 = 180[/tex]

[tex]2x + 34 = 180[/tex]

Subtract 34 from both sides

[tex]2x + 34 - 34 = 180 - 34[/tex]

[tex]2x = 180 - 34[/tex]

[tex]2x = 146[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{146}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{146}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x = 73[/tex]

Hence, the angle with the ground is 73 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

It adds 3 every time and starts with -38. Our equation is:

a52 = -38+3(52-1);

a52 = -38 + 153

a52 = 115

Answer:

115

Step-by-step explanation:

→ First we need to work out the nth term. First we find the difference between each term

-38, -35, -32, -29... ⇔ +3

→ We know the first bit is 3n now we have to find the other section. We need to write the 3 times tables on top of each corresponding term

3 ,   6   ,  9  , 12

-38, -35, -32, -29...

→ We can see the to get from 3 to -38 we minus 41. So the nth term is

3n - 41

→ Now we substitute in 52 for n

3 × 52 - 41

→ Simplify

(2 points) x − 0.05x = 15; x = $15.79 5x = 15; x = $3.00 x + 0.05x = 15; x = $14.29 0.5x = 15; x = $30

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x + 0.05x = 15[/tex], solution is $14.29

Step-by-step explanation:

We can create an equation for this scenario to try and solve it.

Assuming the cost of the CD is x, it’s sale tax will be 0.05x (as that is 5% of x, 0.05.)

We can write the equation in two ways:

[tex]x + 0.05x = 15[/tex] or [tex]1.05x = 15[/tex].

Assuming we take the second one (easier to work with), we can divide both sides by 1.05. The equation simplifies to x = 14.289... which rounds to x = 14.29.

Therefore, the equation is [tex]x + 0.05x = 15[/tex] and the solution is $14.29.

Hope this helped!
