If all the books on a shelf with fewer than 45 books were put into piles of five books each, no books would remain. If the same book were put into piles of seven books each, two books would remain. What is the greatest number of books that could be on the shelf?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Hence the greatest number of books that could be on the shelf is 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:-

Here the given number of books is m,  

m < 45.  

If they are arranged into piles of five books, each no books would remain.  

m is divisible by 5.  

The last digit of m would be 5 or 0.    

The same number of books, when arranged with piles of 7 books each, two books remain.  

m-2 is divisible by 7.  

Step 2:-  

The last digit of m is 5 or 0.  

m-2 will have the last digit 3 or 8.    

Multiples of 7 are 7,14,21,28,35, 42;  

among which only number 28 has the last digit 8 or 3.    

m - 2 = 28  

m = 30  

The greatest number of books that could be on the shelf is 30.

A trucking company determined that the distance traveled per truck per year is normally​ distributed, with a mean of thousand miles and a standard deviation of thousand miles. Complete parts​ (a) through​ (d) below.

Answers

Complete question is;

A trucking company determined that the distance traveled per truck per year in its entire fleet was normally distributed with a mean of 55 thousand miles and a standard deviation of 11 thousand miles.

a)A truck in the fleet traveled 42 thousand miles in the last vear. Calculate the z-score for this truck.

b) Interpret the z-score

c) The trucking company has a policy that any truck with mileage more than 2.5 standard deviations above the mean should be removed from the road and inspected. What is the probability that a randomly selected truck from the fleet will have to be inspected?

d) A randomly selected truck in the fleet traveled 85 thousand miles in the last year. Should this truck be removed from the road and inspected? Explain why or why not.

Answer:

A) z = - 1.18

B) Interpretation of the z-score in A above shows that the distance traveled per truck per year in its entire fleet is 1.18 standard deviations lesser than the distance traveled per truck on average

C) P(z > 2.5) = 0.0062

D) it's value of z is greater than 2.5 minimum and so the truck will be removed from the road and inspected

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We are given;

Population mean; μ = 55000

Sample mean; x¯ = 42000

Standard deviation; σ = 11000

Z-score formula is;

z = (x¯ - μ)/σ

z = (42000 - 55000)/11000

z = - 1.18

B) Interpretation of the z-score in A above shows that the distance traveled per truck per year in its entire fleet is 1.18 standard deviations lesser than the distance traveled per truck on average.

C) since it has a policy that any truck with mileage more than 2.5 standard deviations above the mean should be removed from the road and inspected, then it means that probability that it will be inspected is;

P(z > 2.5) = 1 - P(z < 2.5)

From p-values from z-score table, we have;

P(z > 2.5) = 1 - 0.9938

P(z > 2.5) = 0.0062

D) A randomly selected truck in the fleet traveled 85 thousand miles in the last year. Thus; x¯ = 85000.

Thus;

z = (85000 - 55000)/11000

z = 2.73

This value of z is greater than 2.5 minimum and so the truck will be removed from the road and inspected

find the radius of a circle if the circumference is 44cm. (take π=22/7)​

Answers

Answer:

The radius of the circle if the circumference is 44 cm will be 7 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

➝ Circumference of the circle = 44 cm

➔ Circumference = 2πr [For finding radius]

Finding the radius:-

➜ Let radius be r.

➜ 44 = 2 × 22/7 × r

➜ Multiply 2 × 22/7

➜ 44 = 44/7 × r

➜ Taking 7 to LHS.

➜ 44 × 7 = 44 × r

➜ 308 = 44 × r

➜ Taking 44 to LHS.

➜ 308/44 = r

➜ 308/44 = 7

➜ 7 = r

➜ r = 7

Remember, the square root operation indicates that a number times itself equals the number under the radical. Bear in mind, the result of the square root operation must always be positive.

Step 3: Simplify the rational expression.

Step 4: Multiply any remaining factors in the numerator and/or denominator.

Division:

Step 1: Completely factor both the numerators and denominators of all fractions.

Step 2: Change the division sign to a multiplication sign and flip (or reciprocate) the fraction after the division sign; essential you need to multiply by the reciprocal.

Step 3: Cancel or reduce the fractions. Remember that to reduce fractions; you can cancel something in the numerator with something in the denominator, but in order to cancel something in the numerator and denominator the two factors must be EXACTLY the same.

Step 4: Rewrite the remaining factor. Notice that you do NOT need to actually multiply anything in the numerator or denominator.

The cost of a burrito is:

Answers

Answer:

cost of a taco: $1.25

cost of a burrito: $2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a taco be $t and the cost of a burrito be $b.

t +3b= 8.75 -----(1)

4t +2b= 10

Divide both sides by 2:

2t +b= 5

Making b the subject of formula:

b= 5 -2t -----(2)

Substitute (2) into (1):

t +3(5 -2t)= 8.75

Expand:

t +3(5) +3(-2t)= 8.75

t +15 -6t= 8.75

t -6t= 8.75 -15

-5t= -6.25

t= -6.25 ÷(-5)

t= 1.25

Substitute t= 1.25 into (2):

b= 5 -2(1.25)

b= 5 -2.5

b= 2.50

Thus, the cost of a taco is $1.25 and the cost of a burrito is $2.50.

ative section 3. a) The angle of elevation of the top of a tree observed from a point 60 m away from its foot is 45. Find the height of the tree, b) The angle of depression at a noint on 11​

Answers

Answer:

The height of the tree is is 60m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's answer a, as it is the only complete question.

We know that the angle of elevation of the top of a tree observed from a point 60m away, is 45°.

We can model this with a triangle rectangle, a sketch of it can be seen below (assuming that you are looking it from the ground).

You can see that the adjacent cathetus to the 45° angle is equal to 60m

And the opposite cathetus is the measure we want to find.

Now you can remember the trigonometric relation:

tan(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(adjacent cathetus).

So to find the height of the tree we need to solve:

tan(45°) = H/60m

This is just:

tan(45°)*60m = H  =60m

The height of the tree is is 60m
