You leave a pile of sand in your backyard on a windy day. Every minute the wind blows away 10 percent of the remaining sand. You started with five cubic feet of sand. What equation models the amount of sand after minutes?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

10% of the remaining sand You had 5 ft of sand So y=5(.10(x))
Answer 2

Answer:

the RIGHT answer is y = 5 x 0.90^x

Step-by-step explanation:

ten percent has already been blown away, so you only include the percentage of what hasn't been blown away in the equation. (also i just did the assignment and got 100% so you can trust this).

In a flower basket, the ratio of red roses to white roses is 2 to 3. There are a total of 20 roses in the basket. How many red roses are in the basket?

Answers

Answer: 8 red roses are in the basket.
Explanation:
ratio is 2:3
let’s say red roses are 2x and white roses are 3x.
The total number of roses is 20, then, to find the number of red roses, write:
2x+3x= 20
5x=20
x=4
red roses are 2x
x=4,
hence, put 4 instead of x, and you will get 2*4= 8

Solution:

Consider any two points from the table, i.e., (0,6) and (1,7).

The slope is

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m=\dfrac{7-6}{1-0}[/tex]

[tex]m=\dfrac{1}{1}[/tex]

[tex]m=1[/tex]

Therefore, the slope is 1 and it represent that the number of tents made are increasing by 1 units in each hour.

Answers

9/12 + 3/12 = 12/12 = 1

Therefore, 1 is your answer.

Answer:

Solving [tex]\frac{9}{12}+\frac{3}{12}[/tex] we get 1.

Option A is correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve [tex]\frac{9}{12}+\frac{3}{12}[/tex]

For solving fractions we need to take LCM of denominators.

The LCM of 12, 12 is 12

So, solving:

[tex]\frac{9}{12}+\frac{3}{12}\\=\frac{9*1+3*1}{12}\\=\frac{9+3}{12}\\=\frac{12}{12}\\=1[/tex]

So, solving [tex]\frac{9}{12}+\frac{3}{12}[/tex] we get 1.

Option A is correct answer.

At time t ≥ 0, the velocity of a body moving along the s-axis is v = t² -5t +4. When is the body moving backwards

Check comments for multiple choice answers

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The velocity of a moving body is given by the equation:

[tex]v=t^2-5t+4 ,\, t\geq0[/tex]

Is the velocity is positive (v>0), then our object will be moving forwards.

And if the velocity is negative (v<0), then our object will be moving backwards.

We want to find between which interval(s) is the object moving backwards. Hence, the second condition. Therefore:

[tex]v<0[/tex]

By substitution:

[tex]t^2-5t+4<0[/tex]

Solve. To do so, we can first solve for t and then test values. By factoring:

[tex](t-4)(t-1)=0[/tex]

Zero Product Property:

[tex]t=1, \text{ and } t=4[/tex]

Now, by testing values for t<1, 1<t<4, and t>4, we see that:

[tex]v(0)=4>0,\, v(2)=-2<0,\,\text{ and } v(5)=4>0[/tex]

So, the (only) interval for which v is <0 is the second interval: 1<t<4.

Hence, our answer is A.

hey um, so i’m learning ab percentages in my math class so can someone please explain to me how to solve percent problems if that’s ok? thank you.

Answers

Answer:

It's pretty simple. For example, if it says there is a percentage increase on something like there is a jacket for $25 and there was a 15% increase, you multiply 25 by 1.15 to see what the new price is. But say if the same $25 jacket is on sale for 15%, then you can multiply 25 by .15, then subtract that from 25 or originally subtract the 15% from 100 which is 85 and multiply 25x.85 and get the answer directly.

Hope this helps! But this would be easier to explain with an example

19) Albert says that the two systems of equations shown have the same solutions.
FIRST SYSTEM
6x + y= 2
-x-y=-3
SECOND SYSTEMS
2x-3y = -10
-X-y= -3
A) Agree, because the solutions are the same
B) Agree, because both systems include -x-y= -3
C) Disagree, because the solutions are different
D) Cannot be determined

Answers

Answer:

option A) Agree, because the solutions are the same is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

FIRST SYSTEM

[tex]6x + y= 2[/tex]

[tex]-x-y=-3[/tex]

solving the system

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}6x+y=2\\ -x-y=-3\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Multiply\:}-x-y=-3\mathrm{\:by\:}6\:\mathrm{:}\:\quad \:-6x-6y=-18[/tex]

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}6x+y=2\\ -6x-6y=-18\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

adding the equation

[tex]-6x-6y=-18[/tex]

[tex]+[/tex]

[tex]\underline{6x+y=2}[/tex]

[tex]-5y=-16[/tex]

so the system becomes

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}6x+y=2\\ -5y=-16\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

solve -5y for y

[tex]-5y=-16[/tex]

Divide both sides by -5

[tex]\frac{-5y}{-5}=\frac{-16}{-5}[/tex]

simplify

[tex]y=\frac{16}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{For\:}6x+y=2\mathrm{\:plug\:in\:}y=\frac{16}{5}[/tex]

[tex]6x+\frac{16}{5}=2[/tex]

subtract 16/5 from both sides

[tex]6x+\frac{16}{5}-\frac{16}{5}=2-\frac{16}{5}[/tex]

[tex]6x=-\frac{6}{5}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 6

[tex]\frac{6x}{6}=\frac{-\frac{6}{5}}{6}[/tex]

[tex]x=-\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Therefore, the solution to the FIRST SYSTEM is:

[tex]x=-\frac{1}{5},\:y=\frac{16}{5}[/tex]

SECOND SYSTEM

[tex]2x-3y = -10[/tex]

[tex]-x-y=-3[/tex]

solving the system

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}2x-3y=-10\\ -x-y=-3\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Multiply\:}-x-y=-3\mathrm{\:by\:}2\:\mathrm{:}\:\quad \:-2x-2y=-6[/tex]

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}2x-3y=-10\\ -2x-2y=-6\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]-2x-2y=-6[/tex]

[tex]+[/tex]

[tex]\underline{2x-3y=-10}[/tex]

[tex]-5y=-16[/tex]

so the system of equations becomes

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}2x-3y=-10\\ -5y=-16\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

solve -5y for y

[tex]-5y=-16[/tex]

Divide both sides by -5

[tex]\frac{-5y}{-5}=\frac{-16}{-5}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]y=\frac{16}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{For\:}2x-3y=-10\mathrm{\:plug\:in\:}y=\frac{16}{5}[/tex]

[tex]2x-3\cdot \frac{16}{5}=-10[/tex]

[tex]2x=-\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{-\frac{2}{5}}{2}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]x=-\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Therefore, the solution to the SECOND SYSTEM is:

[tex]x=-\frac{1}{5},\:y=\frac{16}{5}[/tex]

Conclusion:

As both systems of equations have the same solution.

Therefore, we conclude that Albert is right when says that the two systems of equations shown have the same solutions.

Hence, option A) Agree, because the solutions are the same is correct.

10                             80

(a) How much money does Sandra eam per hour? Show your work

(b) Who earns more per hour? Justify your answer

Answer:

a)

y = 10x is sandra's equation. To find her hourly rate, we need to find how much she earns in "1" hour. Since x is hours, we plug in x = 1 and find y (which is her pay).

y = 10x

y = 10(1)

y = 10

$10 is Sandra's hourly rate.

b)

To find who earns more per hour, we need to find the hourly rate of Susan as well from the table. Then compare.

5 hours = $40 so per hour is 40/5 = 8

8 hours is 64, so per hour 64/8 = 8

10 hours is 80, so 80/10 = 8

The table is justified at $8 per hour.

We know Sandra earns $10/hr and Susan earns $8 per hour. So Sandra earns more per hour.

Adult men have heights with a mean of 69.0 inches and a standard deviation of 2.8 inches. Find the height of a man with a z-score of 0.2 (to 2 decimal places)

Answers

Answer:

69.04

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean (m) = 69.0

Standard deviation (s) = 2.8

Zscore = 0.2

Find the corresponding height (x) ;

Using the relation :

Zscore = (x - m) / s

0.2 = (x - 69.0) / 0.2

0.04 = x - 69.0

0.04 + 69.0 = x

69.04 = x

Hence, the height of a man with a Zscore of 0.2 is 69.04
