At a particular school, all students participate in at least one out of three activities: debate, music, and community service. 3 students do all three activities, 21 students do two or more activities, half of all students participate in music, and the ratio of participants in debate, music, and community service, respectively, is $5:4:3$. What is the total number of students at the school

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The activities in which the students of the school participate = 1) Debate, 2) Music, and 3) Community services

The number of students that do all three activities = 3

The number of students that do two or more activities = 21

The number of the students that participate in music = Half of the students

The ratio of the students that take part in debate, music, and community service = 5 : 4 : 3

Let x represent a common number factor of participants in each of the given three activities, we have;

5·x participate in debate, A

4·x participate in music, B

3·x participate in community service, C

We get;

The sum of the students in the school = A∪B∪C = A + B + C - A∩B - A∩C - B∩C + A∩B∩C

Given that the number of students that do two or ore activities = 21, we have;

(A∩B)∪(A∩C)∪(B∩C) = 21

However, we have;

(A∩B)∪(A∩C)∪(B∩C) = (A∩B) + (A∩C) + (B∩C) - A∩B∩C - B∩A∩C - C∩B∩A + A∩B∩C

∴ 21 = (A∩B) + (A∩C) + (B∩C) - 3 - 3 - 3 + 3

(A∩B) + (A∩C) + (B∩C) = 21 + 3 + 3 + 3 - 3 = 21 + 6 = 27

∴ -(A∩B) - (A∩C) - (B∩C) = -27

Therefore;

A + B + C - A∩B - A∩C - B∩C + A∩B∩C = 5·x + 4·x + 3·x - 27 + 3

5·x + 4·x + 3·x - 27 + 3 = 12·x - 24

The total number of students = A∪B∪C = 12·x - 24

The number of students participating in music, B = 4·x = Half the total number of students = (12·x - 24)/2

∴ 4·x = (12·x - 24)/2

8·x = 12·x - 24

12·x - 8·x = 24

4·x = 24

x = 24/4 = 6

The total number of students at the school = 12·x - 24 = 12 × 6 - 24 = 48

Amy has four more 20c coins than 5c coins. The total value of all her 20c and 5c is $3.80. How many 5c coins does Amy have?

Answers

Answer:

Amy has 12 5¢ coins

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent 20¢ coins and y represent 5¢ coins.

Amy has four more 20¢ coins than 5¢ coins. Hence:

[tex]x=y+4[/tex]

And the total value of all her coins is $3.80. Thus:

[tex]0.2x+0.05y=3.8[/tex]

This yields a system of equations:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{cases} x=y+4 \\ 0.2x+0.05y=3.8\end{cases}[/tex]

We can solve by substitution. Substitute the first equation into the first:

[tex]\displaystyle 0.2(y+4)+0.05y=3.8[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]\displaystyle 0.2y+0.8+0.05y=3.8[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]\displaystyle 0.25y = 3[/tex]

And divide both sides by 0.25. Hence:

[tex]y=12[/tex]

Thus, Amy has 12 5¢ coins.

Using the first equation:

[tex]x=y+4[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]x=(12)+4=16[/tex]

Thus, Amy has 16 20¢ coins.

In conclusion, Amy has 12 5¢ coins and 16 20¢ coins.

The Volume of a sphare is 28/3 times the surface area calculate The surface area and the Volume of the sphere, correct to the nearest whole number.​

Answers

Given:

Volume of a sphere is [tex]\dfrac{28}{3}[/tex] times the surface area.

To find:

The surface area and the volume of the sphere.

Solution:

Volume of a sphere:

[tex]V=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3[/tex]              ...(i)

Surface area of a sphere:

[tex]A=4\pi r^2[/tex]                      ...(ii)

Where, r is the radius of the sphere.

Volume of a sphere is [tex]\dfrac{28}{3}[/tex] times the surface area.

[tex]V=\dfrac{28}{3}\times A[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3=\dfrac{28}{3}\times 4\pi r^2[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 3.

[tex]4\pi r^3=112\pi r^2[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{\pi r^3}{\pi r^2}=\dfrac{112}{4}[/tex]

[tex]r=28[/tex]

Using (i), the volume of the sphere is:

[tex]V=\dfrac{4}{3}\times \dfrac{22}{7}\times (28)^3[/tex]

[tex]V\approx 91989[/tex]

Using (ii), the surface area of the sphere is:

[tex]A=4\times \dfrac{22}{7}\times (28)^2[/tex]

[tex]A=9856[/tex]

Therefore, the surface area of the sphere is 9856 sq. units and the volume of the sphere is 91989 cubic units.

You want to put a 3 inch thick layer of topsoil for a new 15 ft by 26 ft garden. The dirt store sells by the cubic yards. How many cubic yards will you need to order? The store only sells in increments of 1/4 cubic yards.

Answers

Answer:

You will need to order 3.75 cubic yards of topsoil.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you want to put a 3 inch thick layer of topsoil for a new 15 ft by 26 ft garden, and the dirt store sells by the cubic yards, to determine how many cubic yards will you need to order given that the store only sells in increments of 1/4 cubic yards, the following calculation should be performed:

3 inches = 0.25 feet

15 x 26 = 390 x 0.25 = 97.5

1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet

97.5 cubic feet = 3.61 cubic yards

3.75 = 1/4 x 15

Therefore, you will need to order 3.75 cubic yards of topsoil.

Use the figure to find the Total Area.

Answers

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply length times width times height

Answer:

C or 104

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume this is surface area, and I don't know what kinda sadist person would make everyone learn in "Total Area," but it is what it is.

So, to find total area, we need to literally multiply every different number with the other.

(You should not do it the way I did, as I did it in the easiest and simpliest way to understand possible.)

Actually, you get the length, width, and height of a figure and do what is below pretty much.

You multiply the length by the width, the length by the height, and the width by the height (doesn't have to be in this order, this is just to make it easy to remember which ones you did.)

We multiply the

5 * 6

5 * 2

and then the

6 * 2

This accounts for every possible case, as multiplying 2 * 5 gives the same thing as the second expression anyways.

So we then solve these three expressions.

5 * 6 = 30

5 * 2 = 10

and then the

6 * 2 = 12

And we add them to get

30 + 10 + 12

= 52.

Then we multiply by 2, because there are two cases of each face of the shape.

You need to remember that there is 3 other faces on the shape you are looking at, it's just that the shape/figure is facing you in a way that you can't see them.

After multiplying by 2, we get

52 * 2

= 104, which is C.

On the first day of travel, a driver was going at a speed of 40 mph. The next day, he increased the speed to 60 mph. If he drove 2 more hours on the first day and traveled 20 more miles, find the total distance traveled in the two days.

Answers

Answer:

380

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a bit nasty. It depends on how you read the 20 miles more and what you do with it. The best and most careful way to do it is do it a long way setting up the two equations carefully.

Second day

Let the time travelled = t

Let the speed travelled = 60 mph

d2 = 60*t

First Day

40*(t + 2) = d1

but d1 = d2 + 20 because he travelled 20 miles further on d1

40 * (t + 2) = d2 + 20

d2 however = 60*t

40*(t+2 ) = 60*t + 20          Remove the brackets

40t + 80 = 60t + 20           Subtract 20 from both sides

40t + 60 = 60t                   Subtract 40t from both sides

60 = 20*t                           Divide by 20

t = 60/20

t = 3 hours.

Day 2 = 60 + t = 180

Day 1 = 40*5  = 200

Total distance = 380

Where did that 20 miles go? It was just an observation about the difference in distance travelled between the 2 days.

The total distance the driver traveled in the two days is 260 miles

From the question, on the first day, the driver was going as a speed of 40 mph.

Let s be speed

∴ [tex]s_{1}= 40mph[/tex]

On the second day, he increased the speed to 60 mph

∴ [tex]s_{2}= 60mph[/tex]

From the statement- If he drove 2 more hours on the first day

Let time be t

Then

[tex]t_{1}= t_{2} + 2[/tex] hrs

and traveled 20 more miles

Let d be distance  

Then,

[tex]d_{1}= d_{2} + 20[/tex] miles

From the formula

Distance = Speed × Time

Then,

[tex]d = s \times t[/tex]

∴ [tex]d_{1} = s_{1} \times t_{1}[/tex]

From above,

[tex]d_{1}= d_{2}+20[/tex] miles

[tex]s_{1}= 40mph[/tex]

[tex]t_{1}= t_{2} + 2[/tex] hrs

Putting these into

[tex]d_{1} = s_{1} \times t_{1}[/tex]

[tex]d_{2} + 20 = 40\times (t_{2}+2)[/tex] ...... (1)

But,

[tex]Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed}[/tex]

∴ [tex]t_{2}= \frac{d_{2} }{s_{2} }[/tex]

From above, [tex]s_{2}= 60mph[/tex]

∴ [tex]t_{2}= \frac{d_{2} }{60}[/tex]

Put this into equation (1)

[tex]d_{2} + 20 = 40\times (t_{2}+2)[/tex]

[tex]d_{2} + 20 = 40\times (\frac{d_{2}}{60} +2)[/tex]

[tex]d_{2} + 20 = \frac{2}{3}d_{2} +80\\d_{2} = \frac{2}{3}d_{2} +80-20\\d_{2} = \frac{2}{3}d_{2} +60[/tex]

Multiply through by 3

[tex]3\times d_{2} = 3\times \frac{2}{3}d_{2} +3 \times 60\\3d_{2} = 2d_{2} + 120\\3d_{2} -2d_{2} = 120[/tex]

∴ [tex]d_{2} = 120[/tex] miles

∴The distance traveled on the second day is 120 miles

For the distance traveled on the first day,

Substitute [tex]d_{2}[/tex] into the equation

[tex]d_{1}= d_{2}+20[/tex] miles

∴ [tex]d_{1}= 120+20[/tex]

[tex]d_{1}= 140[/tex] miles

∴ The distance traveled on the first day is 140 miles

The total distance traveled in the two days = [tex]d_{1} + d_{2}[/tex]

The total distance traveled in the two days = 120 miles + 140 miles

The total distance traveled in the two days = 260 miles

Hence, the total distance the driver traveled in the two days is 260 miles
