Explain how the Distributive Property can be used to eliminate the fractions in the equation 15x+8=110x+9.
Answer:
x= -1/95
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Subtract 110x from both sides.
15x+8−110x=110x+9−110x
−95x+8=9
Step 2: Subtract 8 from both sides.
−95x+8−8=9−8
−95x=1
Step 3: Divide both sides by -95.
−95x
−95
=
-1/95
x=
−1/95
Using distributive property the solution of the equation is x= −1/95
What is distributive property?The distributive property states that an expression of the form A(B + C) can be solved by a multiplication over addition operation that is
A(B + C) = AB + AC
This property is known by distributive law and applies to subtraction also.
Given that the equation; 15x + 8 = 110x + 9.
Step 1: Subtract 110x from both sides.
15x + 8 − 110x = 110x + 9 − 110x
−95x + 8 = 9
Step 2: Subtract 8 from both sides;
−95x + 8 − 8 = 9 − 8
−95x = 1
Step 3: Divide both sides by -95;
x= −1/95
Hence, Using distributive property the solution of the equation is x= −1/95

Which of the following is a continuous random variable?
a. The number of goals scored in a hockey game
b. The number of correct answers on a multiple-choice test
c. The heights of children in a preschool
d. The number of houses for sale in a city
Answer:
The correct answer is:
c) The heights of children in a preschool
Step-by-step explanation:
Continuous variables are variables that can take on any value in a measuring series and scale. There is no limit to the possibilities of the data in a continuous variable. In this example, the heights of children can take on an infinite number of values, it may be 0.5m, 0.43m, 0.33m, etc.
Discrete variables, on the other hand, are variables that are obtained by counting. There is a limit to the possibilities that the values in this category can take on. For example, when counting the number of goals in a hockey game, it can be 2 goals, 10 goals 20 goals, but you cannot count 15.5 goals or 22.2 goals, the number is a whole discrete number. Hence options a, b and d are discrete variables.

On a farm there are 50 sheep and a farmer how many feet are there in total
Answer:
200 sheep legs and 2 farmer legs, or 202 legs in total.
Step-by-step explanation:
One sheep has 4 legs. and there are 50 sheep. So, we have to multiply 50*4 to get 200. Then, we have to add the two legs the farmer has. 200 + 2 = 202. Therefore, there are 202 legs on the farm.
If the mean GPA among students is 3.25 with a standard deviation of 0.75, what is the probability that a random sample of 300 students will have a mean GPA greater than 3.30
Answer:
The value is [tex]P(X > 3.30) = 0.12405[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mean GPA is [tex]\mu = 3.25[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 0.75[/tex]
The sample size is n = 300
Generally the standard error of mean is mathematically represented as
[tex]\sigma_{\= x} = \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
=> [tex]\sigma_{\= x} = \frac{0.75}{\sqrt{300} }[/tex]
=> [tex]\sigma_{\= x} = 0.0433[/tex]
Generally the probability that a random sample of 300 students will have a mean GPA greater than 3.30 is mathematically represented as
[tex]P(X > 3.30) = P(\frac{X - \mu}{\sigma_{\= x}} > \frac{3.30 -3.25}{ 0.0433} )[/tex]
[tex]\frac{\= X -\mu}{\sigma } = Z (The \ standardized \ value\ of \ \= X )[/tex]
[tex]P(X > 3.30) = P(Z> 1.155 )[/tex]
From the z table the probability of (Z > 1.155 ) is
[tex]P(Z> 1.155 ) = 0.12405[/tex]
[tex]P(X > 3.30) = 0.12405[/tex]
Find the value of x.

Which of the following numbers is/are positive ?
1
(A) In 2 + In 3 + In 0.161
(B) In 3 + In(1.4) - In 16
Answer:
Neither expression (A) nor expression (B) would be positive. A calculator is not required.
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that [tex]A[/tex] and [tex]B[/tex] are both positive real numbers. Consider the property of logarithms with the same base:
[tex]\ln A + \ln B = \ln(A \cdot B)[/tex].
[tex]\displaystyle \ln A - \ln B = \ln\left(\frac{A}{B}\right)[/tex].
Apply these two properties to combine the logarithms in each expression into a one.
First expression:
[tex]\begin{aligned}&\ln 2+ \ln 3 + \ln 0.161 \\ &= \ln(2 \times 3) + \ln (0.161) \\ &= \ln(2 \times 3 \times 0.161) = \ln(0.966) \end{aligned}[/tex].
Second expression:
[tex]\begin{aligned}&\ln 3+ \ln (1.4) - \ln 16 \\ &= \ln(3 \times 1.4) - \ln (16) \\ &= \ln\left(\frac{3 \times 1.4}{16}\right) = \ln(0.2625) \end{aligned}[/tex].
The logarithm of a real number is positive if and only if that number is greater than one.
Neither [tex]0.966[/tex] nor [tex]0.2625[/tex] is greater than one. Therefore, neither of their respective logarithms would be positive.

Find the ordered pairs for the x- and y-intercepts of the equation 3x − 2y = 18 and select the appropriate option below. (5 points)
The x-intercept is (3, 0); the y-intercept is (0, –2).
The x-intercept is (6, 0); the y-intercept is (0, –9).
The x-intercept is (0, 6); the y-intercept is (–9, 0).
The x-intercept is (0, 3); the y-intercept is (–2, 0).
Answer:
The correct answer is (second option):
The x-intercept is (6, 0); the y-intercept is (0, –9).
Step-by-step explanation:
Intercepts of a real function
Given a function y=f(x), the x-intercepts of f are those values of x that make y=0. The y-intercepts are those values of y that make x=0.
Our function is:
3x - 2y = 18
To find the x-intercept(s), we set y=0:
3x - 2(0) = 18
3x = 18
Solving:
x = 18 / 3 =6
The x-intercept is the point (6,0)
Now for the y-intercept(s), we set x=0:
3(0) - 2y = 18
-2y = 18
Solving:
y = 18 / (-2) = -9
The y-intercept is the point (0,-9)
The correct answer is (second option):
The x-intercept is (6, 0); the y-intercept is (0, –9).
The x-intercept is (6, 0); the y-intercept is (0, –9).

***USE PENCIL AND PAPER TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM!!!
20%
15%
30%
80%
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
I can't do it on paper, so I'll type it up for you so you can copy it down.
'Percent (%)' means 'out of one hundred':
75% = 75 'out of one hundred',
p% is read p 'percent',
75% = 75/100 = 75 ÷ 100.
'Percentage' is obtained by multiplying 20 by 75%.
75% × 20 =
(75 ÷ 100) × 20 =
(75 × 20) ÷ 100 =
1,500 ÷ 100 =

The answer is 15.

Find the rate of ounces of water needed for each packet of flavoring
Answer:
24 ounces/ 2 packets = 12 ounces/ packet
Step-by-step explanation:
23 (12 ounces/packet) = 276 ounces of water
The the rate of ounces of water needed for each packet of flavoring would be 12.
What is a mathematical function, equation and expression?function : In mathematics, a function from a set X to a set Y assigns to each element of X exactly one element of Y. The set X is called the domain of the function and the set Y is called the codomain of the function.expression : A mathematical expression is made up of terms (constants and variables) separated by mathematical operators.equation : A mathematical equation is used to equate two expressions.equation modelling : Equation modelling is the process of writing a mathematical verbal expression in the form of a mathematical expression for correct analysis and results of the given problemGiven is the packets of flavoring added to an specific amount of water to make soup.
Now, for 24 ounces of water, 2 packets of flavoring are needed.
Then, for 1 packet of flavoring, (24/2) or 12 ounces of water is needed.
For 5 packets of flavoring, (12 x 5) or 60 ounces of water is needed.
So, the rate of ounces of water needed for each packet of flavoring would be -
r = (60 - 24)/(5 - 2)
r = 36/3
r = 12
r = 12
Therefore, the the rate of ounces of water needed for each packet of flavoring would be 12.

2 1/2 divided by 2 1/6
Answer:
15/13
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert to improper fractions: 5/2 divided by 13/6
Multiply the first term by reciprocal: 5/2 * 6/13 = 30/26
Simplify: 30/26 can become 15/13
[tex] = 2 \frac{1}{2} \div 2 \frac{1}{6} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{5}{2} \div \frac{13}{6} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{5}{2} \times \frac{6}{13} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{30}{26} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{30 \div 2}{26 \div 2} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{15}{13} [/tex]
[tex]\color{hotpink} = 1 \frac{2}{13} [/tex]
[tex]\therefore\color{olive}2 \frac{1}{2} \div 2 \frac{1}{6} = \color{hotpink} \frac{15}{13}\color{olive} (or) \color{hotpink}1\frac{2}{3} [/tex]

The length of a side of a square is 3x plus 4 ft. If its a perimeter is 100 ft, what is the value of x?
Answer:
x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
4 (3x+4)= 100 ft (Perimeter = sum of all 4 sides)
12x + 16 =100 ft (Multiply length of one side by 4, which is number of side on a square)
12x = 84 (This is what is left after subtracting 16 form both sides of the equation making the equation still true)
x = 7 (84 divided by 7 to let X stand alone and get the value of x)
