Answers

Answer 1

Given :

A patient with high blood pressure who weighs 226 pounds is put on a diet to lose 26 pounds in 3 months. The patient loses 8 3/4 pounds the first month and 11 5/8 pounds the second month.

To Find :

How much weight must be lost the third month for the goal to be achieved.

Solution :

Let, weight lose in third month is x.

So, 8 3/4 + 11 5/8 + x = 26

[tex]\dfrac{32+3}{4}+\dfrac{88+5}{8}+x=26\\\\x = 26 - ( \dfrac{35}{4}+\dfrac{93}{8})\\\\x=5.625\ pounds[/tex]

Therefore, weight lose in third month is 5.625 pounds.

Hence, this is the required solution.

When an article is sold at a discount of 10 %, a profit of Rs 8 is earned. If the same
article is sold without allowing a discount, there will be a profit of Rs 20. Find the cost price of the article.​

Answers

Answer:

Market Price = MP

Cost Price = CP

P1 = (MP - 10%) - CP = Rs8

- CP = Rs8 - 0.90% MP

CP = 0.90 MP - Rs8

P2 = MP - CP = Rs20

- CP = Rs20 -MP

CP = MP - Rs20

0.90 MP - Rs8 = MP - Rs20

- 0.10% MP = - Rs12

0.10% MP = Rs 12

MP = Rs120p

CP = MP - Rs20 = Rs120 - Rs20 = Rs100.

The cost price of the item is Rs100.

Answers

Answer:

B) n=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute.

7(1+4n)-5=-38+8n

7+28n-5=-38+8n

Combine like terms.

2+28n=-38+8n

To make solving the equation easier, subtract 8n first, so there isn't a negative variable.

2+28n=-38+8n

  -8n           -8n

2+20n=-38

Subtract 2 on both sides.

2+20n=-38

-2          -2

20n=-40

Divide by 20 on both sides.

20n=-40

given the equation y=23x,whats the value of x if y=100

Answers

Answer: 4.3478 or 100/23

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the y values equal to each other since they are the same unknown (x). You end up with 100=23x, solve for x. Move the 23 over to the other side by using division. x=100/23. If you need it in decimal form, 100÷23=4.347826087

Answer:

4.3=x

Step-by-step explanation: y=23x

substitute the variable y to 100. Now the equation looks like this 100=23x. Your next step is to get get x by itself, so you would divide 23 on both sides. That would cancel out the 23 x. The only thing you have to do now is 100 divided by 23 and that would be 4.3 and a whole bunch of number so you just round it to the nearest tenth. You answer would be 4.3.

#30 Tickets to a school play cost $2 if bought in advance and $3 at the door. By selling all 400 tickets, $1,030 was

collected. Let x represent the number of tickets sold at the door.

In terms of x. how many tickets were sold in advance?

Answers

Answer:

170 tickets were sold in advance

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the = number of tickets sold at the door.

Let y represent the = number of tickets sold in advance

Tickets to a school play cost $2 if bought in advance and $3 at the door. By selling all 400 tickets, $1,030 was

collected.

Hence, we have two equations

x + y = 400 tickets

$3 × x + $2 × y = $1,030

x + y = 400.... Equation 1

x = 400 - y

3x + 2y = 1030........ Equation 2

Substitute 400 - y for x in Equation 2

3(400 - y) + 2y = 1030

1200 - 3y + 2y = 1030

Collect like terms

-y = 1030 -1200

-y = -170

y = 170

Since y represent the number of tickets sold in advance, therefore, 170 tickets were sold in advance.

Paula leaves home driving 40 miles per hour. One hour
later, her brother Dan leaves home, driving in the same direction at a speed of 50 miles per hour. How long will it take Dan to catch up to Paula?

Answers

Since Paula left home an hour ago driving at 40mph, it means she has already gone 40 miles by the time Dan left. Dan is driving at 50mph, which is 10 greater than 40. This means that every hour, Dan will drive 10 more miles than Paula, lessening their difference by 10. 40 divided by 10 is 4, so iit will take Dan 4 hours to catch up to Paula:)

What is the solution to the equation –5w + 3 = 4w – 6?

Answers

Answer:

-2=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

w = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

-5w + 3 = 4w - 6

were going to get the variable and the numbers on different sides

-5w + 3 - 3 = -5w

4w - 6 - 4w = -6

-5w + 4w = -1w or -w

-6 + 3 = -3

-w = -3

and since there're both negatives you can just take that away and you get

w = 3

Akutan males smoke cigars while 2.1% of Akutan females smoke cigars. One

member of the population is selected at random for a survey involving cell

phone carriers

Express the cigar smoking data as conditional probabilities.


Find the

probability that the selected subject does not smoke cigars given that the

subject is male

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Proportion of males, P(M) = 77% = 0.77

Proportion of females = ( 1 - proportion of males) = (1 - 0.77) = 0.23

Percentage of males who smoke cigar = 11.3% = 0.113

Percentage of female who smoke cigar = 2.1% = 0.021

Expressing cigar smoking Data as conditional probability :

P(male and smoking) = P(M n C) = 0.113

P(Female and smoking) = P(F n C) = 0.021

Probability of smoking cigar Given the person is a male :

P(C | M) = P(M n C) / P(M)

Probability of smoking cigar Given person is a female :

P(C | F) = P(F n C) / P(F)

Find the probability that the selected subject does not smoke cigars given that the subject is male?

No smoking Given Male = 1 - P(C | M)

P(C | M) = P(M n C) / P(M)

P(C | M) = 0.113 / 0.77

P(C | M) = 0.1467

1 - P(C | M)

1 - 0.1467

= 0.8533

Second, add 3/4 to both sides:

-2/3y +-3/4 + 3/4=5 +3/4

-2/3y= 23/4

Next, multiply both sides by 3/(-2) (3 over -2)

(3/-2)*(-2/3y)= (3/-2) * (23/4)
