Farmer Dave harvested his corn. He stored 5/9 of his corn in one large silo and ¾ of the remaining corn in a small silo. The rest was taken to market to be sold.
a. What fraction of the corn was stored in the small silo?
b. If he harvested 18 tons of corn, how many tons did he take to market?

Answers

Answer 1

After storing 5/9 in the large silo there was 4/9 left ( 1-5/9 = 4/9)

A. Multiply 4/9 by 3/4:

4/9 x 3/4 = 12/36 = 1/3

1/3 of the corn was in the small silo.

B. 1-5/9 -1/3 = 4/9-1/3 = 4/9-3/9 = 1/9

1/9 of the corn went to market:

18 x 1/9 = 18/9 = 2

2 ton went to market.

A vending machine dispenses coffee into a twelve ounce cup he amount of coffee dispensed into the cup is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 0.006 ounce. You can allow the cup to overfill 4â% of the time. What amount should you set as the mean amount of coffee to beâ dispensed?

Answers

Answer:

this mean amount of coffee to be dispensed would be 11.99, approximately 12

Step-by-step explanation:

first of all we have this information available to answer this question.

standard deviation σ = 0.006 ounces

prob(x > 12) = 0.04

we use this formular to find the mean

z = x - μ/σ

 the value of the z score at 4% is equal to 1.7507

such that

[tex]1.7507 = \frac{12-u}{0.006}[/tex]

we cross multiply from this stage

1.7507*0.006 = 12-μ

0.0105042 = 12-μ

μ = 12 - 0.0105042

herefore, the mean amount μ = 11.99 this can be approximated to 12

The perimeter of a rectangular parking lot is 318m. If the width of the parking lot is 61m what is the length

Answers

Answer:

98 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify each side of the equation:

318 = 2(61+x)

318= (2)(61) + (2)(x)

318= 122 + 2x

Flip the equation:

2x + 122 = 318

Subtract 122 from each side:

2x + 122 − 122 = 318 − 122

2x = 196

Divide both sides by 2:

2x/2 = 196/2

x = 98

Step-by-step explanation:

It asks for the common set of A and B.

There only one element common to both the given sets:

A={2,3,5,7} and B={2,4,6,8} ⇒ A∩B = {2}

Answer:

A ∩ B = {2}

Step-by-step explanation:

∩ == this symbol stands for the common element/set

So according to this question you have to find the element which is common for both A and B sets.

A = { 2,3,5,7}B = {2,4,6,8}

So now you can see that only number 2 is common for both.

So, the answer is,

It is claimed that the average child has no time to go to school. For the child spends 8 hours per day,or one third of his/her time sleeping. Based on a 365 day year, that’s 121.67days sleeping. Also the child spends three hours per day eating. That’s a total of 45 days in the year spent eating. Also the child spends 90 days taking summer vacation. Also the child spends 21 days on Christmas and Easter holiday. Finally, the child has each Saturday and Sunday off. That’s a total of 104 days. In short, we (rounding to whole days accounted for 122+45+90+21+104=382 days of the year taken up by ordinary child inlike activities. This is already more than the 365 days that are known to comprise a year. We conclude that there is certainly no time for the child to attend school. What is wrong with this reasoning?

Answers

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sleeping:

8/24 * 365 = 121.76 days

Eating:

3/24 * 365 = 45.63 days

Total sleeping and eating: 167 days

Summer Vacation & Holidays:

90 + 21 = 111 days

Saturdays and Sundays: 52 + 52 = 104 days

Vacation + Holidays Saturdays + Sundays = 111 + 104 = 215 days

It may be true that all days of vacation, holiday, Saturdays, and Sundays combined are a total of 215 days, but these 215 days cannot be added to the 167 days above because these 215 days include time for sleeping and eating which was already included in the sleeping and eating times for the entire year. The mistake in the reasoning is counting twice the time of sleeping and eating on the 215 days in which there is no school.

Find the APR, rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent (one decimal place) for the loan. Purchase a living room set for $4,900 at 8% add-on interest for 4 years. Enter only the number without % sign.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  14.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume this question is asking for the annual interest rate for an amortized loan that would produce the same total repayment amount as if 8% simple interest were added to the $4900 loan amount. There is no formula for that, but there are a number of apps and spreadsheets that can calculate it. In the attached, we have use a graphing calculator.

The APR is about 14.3%.

_____

The amount to be repaid is calculated using the simple interest formula:

  A = P(1 +rt) = $4900(1 +0.08·4) = $6468

Then the required monthly payment (for 48 months) is ...

  $6468/48 = $134.75

__

The payment amount for a 48-payment loan at rate r on a principal of $4900 will be ...

  A = 4900(r/12)/(1 -(1 +r/12)^-48)

In the attachment, we show the value of r (in percent) that would make the payment amount A be $134.75. We have done this by casting the problem in the form f(r) = 0 and looking for the x-intercept of f(r).

_____

Additional comment

The second attachment uses a spreadsheet for the same purpose. Here, we have used Go.ogle Sheets with a "Goal Seek" add-on to adjust the value in cell B5 so that the computed payment on the loan (cell B6) is the same as the value we calculated in cell B4.

We found the graphing calculator solution to be much quicker, though in that case we actually had to know the formula to use to calculate the payment. The payment formula is built into the spreadsheet.

If two resistors with resistances R1 and R2 are connected in parallel, as in the figure below, then the total resistance R, measured in ohms (Ω), is given by 1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 . If R1 and R2 are increasing at rates of 0.3 Ω/s and 0.2 Ω/s, respectively, how fast is R changing when R1 = 60 Ω and R2 = 80 Ω? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

Answers

The rate of change of R with time in the given equation is 0.004 ohm/s

Given parameters:

[tex]\frac{1}{R} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2} \\\\\frac{dR_1}{dt} = 0.3 \ ohm/s\\\\\frac{dR_2}{dt} = 0.2 \ ohm/s\\\\R_1 = 60 \ ohms\\\\R_2 = 80 \ ohms[/tex]

To find:

The rate of change of R with time in the given equation.

First determine the value of R from the given equation;

[tex]\frac{1}{R} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2} \\\\\frac{1}{R} = \frac{1}{60} + \frac{1}{80} \\\\\frac{1}{R} = \frac{4 + 3}{240} \\\\\frac{1}{R} = \frac{7}{240} \\\\R = \frac{240}{7} = 34.286 \ ohms[/tex]

Finally, to determine the rate of change of R, differentiate the given equation.

[tex]\frac{-1}{R^2} \frac{dR}{dt} = \frac{-1}{R_1^2} \frac{dR_1}{dt} - \frac{1}{R_2^2} \frac{dR_2}{dt} \\\\\frac{1}{R^2} \frac{dR}{dt} = \frac{1}{R_1^2} \frac{dR_1}{dt} + \frac{1}{R_2^2} \frac{dR_2}{dt}\\\\\frac{dR}{dt} = R^2(\frac{1}{R_1^2} \frac{dR_1}{dt} + \frac{1}{R_2^2} \frac{dR_2}{dt})[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dR}{dt} = 34.286(\frac{1}{(60)^2} \times 0.3 \ \ \ + \ \ \ \frac{1}{(80)^2} \times 0.2)\\\\\frac{dR}{dt} = 34.286(8.333 \times 10^{-5} \ \ \ + \ \ \ 3.125 \times 10^{-5})\\\\\frac{dR}{dt} = 34.286(11.458 \times 10^{-5})\\\\\frac{dR}{dt} = 0.00393\\\\\frac{dR}{dt} \approx 0.004 \ ohm/s[/tex]

investing $12,000 in a savings account at 6% annual interest compounded monthly will result in approximately how much money after five years? use formula A 0 P(1 + r/m) ^mt

Answers

Answer:

$16186.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that P represents the initial amount, A represents the end amount, r represents the annual interest rate, m represents the amount of times compounded per year, and t represents the amount of years, we can write this as

A = P(1+r/m)^(mt)

Since 12,000 is invested, that is the initial amount. To find the interest rate as a decimal from a percent (as we need it in decimal form for this formula), we can divide the percent by 100 to get 6%/100 = 0.06 as our interest rate. Because there are 12 months in a year, the interest is compounded 12 times a year, and since it takes 5 years, t=5. Our formula is now

A = 12000 * (1+0.06/12)^(12 * 5)

A = 12000 * (1+0.06/12) ^(60)

A = 16186.20 rounded to the nearest cent

You need 675 mL of a 90% alcohol solution. On hand, you have a 25% alcohol mixture. How much of the 25% alcohol mixture and pure alcohol will you need to obtain the desired solution?

Answers

Answer:

90 ml of the 25 percent mixture and 585 of pure alcohol

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, you should find the quantity of alcohol in the desired mixture.

675:100*90= 675*0.9= 607.5

Firstly,  define all the 25 percents mixure as x, the pure alcohol weight is y.

1. x+y= 675 (because the first and the second liquid form a desired liquid).

Then find the equation for spirit

The first mixture contains 25 percents. It is x/100*25= 0.25x

When the second one consists of pure alcohol, it contains 100 percents of spirit,  so it is x.

2. 0.25x+y=607.5

Then you have a system of equations ( 1.x+y= 675 and 2. 0.25x+y= 607.5)

try 2-1 to get rid of y

x+y- (0.25x+y)= 675-607.5

0.75x= 67.5

x= 90

y= 675-x= 675-90= 585

It means that you need90 ml of the 25percents mixture and 585 0f pure alcohol

Answers

Option D is correct. 95% of the distribution lies between 1.9975inches and 3.4025inches.

To get the required range of values, we will have to first get the z-score for the two-tailed probability at a 95% confidence interval. According to the normal table, the required range is between -2.81 and 2.81

The formula for calculating the z-score is expressed as;

[tex]z=\frac{x-\overline x}{s}[/tex] where:

[tex]\overline x[/tex] is the mean

s is the standard deviation

z is the z-scores

Given the following

[tex]\overline x[/tex]=2.7 in

s = 0.25

if z = -2.81

[tex]-2.81=\frac{x-2.7}{0.25}\\x-2.7=-2.81*0.25\\x-2.7=-0.7025\\x=-0.7025+2.7\\x=1.9975[/tex]

Similarly:

[tex]2.81=\frac{x_2-2.7}{0.25}\\x_2-2.7=2.81*0.25\\x_2-2.7=0.7025\\x_2=0.7025+2.7\\x_2=3.4025[/tex]

Hence the 95% of the distribution lies between 1.9975inches and 3.4025inches.
