Answers

Answer 1

numerator = top part of the fraction

denominator = bottom part of the fraction

* means multiply

a.

you can only add the numerator when the denominator is the same

cant add the denominator

denominator has to be the same

1/5 = 4/20

4/20 + 7/20 = 11/20

b.

1 7/8 = 15/8

3/4 ÷ 15/8 =

3/4 * 8/15 =

24/60 = divide both top and bottom by 12 =

2/5

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

a)1/5+ 7/20

1.find the CM of both denominators

2.multiply both the denominator and the numerator using the CM

=(1/5)×20 +(7/20)

=20/100 +35/100

since you multiply

3.Now add both numerators ( don't add the denominators)

=the answer is 55/100

27x + 24y= 4.5

1.5x + y =0.225

Answers

Answer:

x = 0.1, y = 0.075

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

27x + 24y = 4.5 → (1)

1.5x + y = 0.225 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by - 24 and adding to (1) will eliminate the y- term

- 36x - 24y = - 5.4 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y

- 9x = - 0.9 ( divide both sides by - 9 )

x = 0.1

Substitute x = 0.1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (2)

1.5(0.1) + y = 0.225

0.15 + y = 0.225 ( subtract 0.15 from both sides )

y = 0.075

Answer:

the values for x AND y are 0.1 and 0.075 respectively

When leaving a town, a car accelerates from 30 kmh-1 to 60 kmh-1 in 5 s. Assuming the
acceleration is constant, find the distance travelled in this time.
A. 6 m
B. 62.5 m
C. 41.7 m
D. 20.8 m

Answers

Answer:

B .62.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

convert Kmh-1 in to ms-1

30 Kmh-1 = (30×1000) ÷3600 = 8.3ms-1

60 Kmh-1 = (60×1000) ÷3600 = 16.6 ms-1

acceleration = (16.6 - 8.3) ÷ 5 = 1.66 ms-2

V^2 = U^2 +2aS

(16.6)^2 = (8.3)^2 + 2×1.66 ×S

S = 62.5 m

In Exercises 1-4, determine whether the dilated figure or the original figure is closer to the center of dilation. Use the given location of the center of dilation and scale factor k.
1. Center of dilation inside the figure; k = 3
Center of ditation inside the figure, k = 1/2
3. Center of dilation outside the figure: = 120%
4. Center of dilation outside the figure; k = 0.1

Answers

When the Center of dilation is inside the figure

The original figure is closer to the center of dilationThe dilated figure is closer to the the center of dilation

When the Center of dilation is outside the figure

    3. The original figure is closer to the the center of dilation

    4. The dilated figure is closer to the center of dilation

The center of dilation is the fixed point from which the distances in a dilation are measured

The scale factor is ratio of the side lengths of an original figure or preimage to  the side lengths of the newly formed image

Center of dilation is inside the figure

Where the center of dilation is inside the figure, and the scale factor is larger than 1, k = 3 > 1,  we have;

The distance of a point on the dilated figure, including the distances from the center of dilation is 3 times the distances of points on the original image from the center of dilation

Therefore, the original figure has a shorter distance to and is therefore closer to the the center of dilation than the dilated figure

     2. Where the center of dilation is inside the figure, and the scale factor is a fraction between 0 and 1 k = 1/2, we have;

The distance of a point on the dilated figure, including the distances from the center of dilation is 1/2 times the distances of points on the original image from the center of dilation

Therefore, the dilated figure has a shorter distance to and is therefore closer to the the center of dilation than the original figure

Center of dilation outside the figure

     3. Given that the center of dilation is outside the figure and the scale factor is larger than 1, k = 120% = 120/100 = 1.2 > 1, we have;

The distance of the dilated figure from the center of dilation is 120% of the distance of the original figure from the center of dilation, therefore, the original figure is closer to the the center of dilation than the dilated figure

     4. Where the center of dilation is outside the figure and the scale factor is a fraction between 0 and 1, k = 0.1 < 1

The distance of the dilated figure from the center of dilation is only 0.1 times the distance of the original figure from the center of dilation, and therefore, the dilated figure is closer to the center of dilation

The business college computing center wants to determine the proportion of business students who have personal computers (PC's) at home. If the proportion exceeds 30%, then the lab will scale back a proposed enlargement of its facilities. Suppose 300 business students were randomly sampled and 65 have PC's at home. What assumptions are necessary for this test to be satisfied

Answers

Solution :

Given data :

x = 65, n = 300

[tex]$\hat p = \frac{x}{n}[/tex]

  [tex]$=\frac{65}{300}$[/tex]

  = 0.2167

The hypothesis are :

[tex]$H_0: p> 0.3$[/tex]

The [tex]\text{level of significance}[/tex], α = 0.05

The test is right tailed.

The standard deviation is :

[tex]$\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{0.3(1-0.3)}{300}}$[/tex]

σ = 0.0265

The test statistics is :

[tex]$z=\frac{\hat p - p}{\sigma}$[/tex]

[tex]$z=\frac{0.2167 - 0.3}{0.0265}$[/tex]

  = -3.14

The critical value is 1.645

The rejection region is : If z > 1.645, then we reject [tex]H_0[/tex]

Decision :

Since the test statistics does not lie in the rejection, so we fail to . [tex]\text{reject the null hypothesis}[/tex].

P-value : [tex]$P(z > - 3.14)$[/tex]   = 0.9992

The sum of the series above is (Record your answer in the numerical-response section below) ​

Answers

The first term in the series is 336. The second term is obtained by subtracting 4 from the first term; subtract 4 from that to get the third term; and so on. Then the n-th term in the series is

336 - 4 (n - 1)

or

340 - 4n

The last term in this series is 4, so we solve for n :

340 - 4n = 4

336 = 4n

n = 336/4 = 84

The sum of the series is then

[tex]\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{84}(340-4n) = 340\sum_{n=1}^{84}1 - 4 \sum_{n=1}^{84}n[/tex]

Recall that

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^{N} 1 = N[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^N n = \frac{N(N+1)}2[/tex]
