A delivery truck is transporting boxes of two sizes: large and small. The combined weight of a large box and a small box is 75 pounds. The truck is transporting 55 large boxes and 50 small boxes. If the truck is carrying a total of 4025 pounds in boxes, how much does each type of box weigh?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

There are 50 large boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, "boxes of two sizes" means we can assign variables:

  Let x = number of large boxes

       y = number of small boxes

 

 "There are 115 boxes in all"    means    x + y = 115      [eq1]

 

Now, the pounds for each kind of box is:

    (pounds per box)*(number of boxes)

 

So,

  pounds for large boxes     +    pounds for small boxes      =    4125 pounds

                 "the truck is carrying a total of 4125 pounds in boxes"

 

        (50)*(x)                   +              (25)*(y)                  = 4125    [eq2]

 

It is important to find two equations so we can solve for two variables.

 

Solve for one of the variables in eq1 then replace (substitute) the expression for that variable in eq2.  Let's solve for x:

   x = 115 - y          [from eq1]

 

    50(115-y) + 25y = 4125             [from eq2]

     5750 - 50y  + 25y = 4125           [distribute]

     5750 - 25y = 4125

      -25y = -1625

         y = 65             [divide both sides by (-25)]

 

 There are 65 small boxes.

 

Put that value into either equation (now, which is easier?) to solve for x:

  x = 115 - y

  x = 115 - 65

  x = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

The multiples of 3 are 3,6,9,12

Sum is 6+14+12+1 = 33

The total is 3+6+8+11+14+16+15+12+9+5+1=100

The experimental probability is  number of multiples of 3 over the total

You want to buy a $200000 home. You plan to pay 10% as a down payment, and take out a 30 year loan for the rest. A. How much is the loan amount going to be?

B. What will your monthly payments be if the interest rate 5%?

C. What will your monthly payments be if the interest rate is 6%?

Answers

Answer:

A = 20,000

Step-by-step explanation:

200,000 ÷ 10 = 20,000

The loan amount going to be for a home that cost  $200000 home. You plan to pay 10% as a down payment and take out a 30-year loan for the rest is $180000.

What is interest?

When the loan is given to you, then some amount is charged to you for the principal amount and that is called interest.

Given:

The cost of the house, C = $200000,

The time = 30 years,

If the down payment is 10% then the remaining amount,

Down payment  amount, D = 10% of 2000000 = $20000

Remaining amount = C - D

Remaining amount = $200000 -  $20000 = $180000,

Therefore, the loan amount is $180000.

Solve for y in the first equation.

y = 9 + x

Put y as 9 + x in the second equation and solve for x.

10 + 2x = -2(9 + x)

A 4-ft-high and 7-ft-wide rectangular plate is submerged vertically in water so that the top is 1 ft below the surface. Express the hydrostatic force against one side of the plate as an integral and evaluate it. (Recall that the weight density of water is 62.5 lb/ft3).

Answers

Total depth of the bottom of the plate is 4 + 1 = 5

Force = limit(5,1) 62.5 *7* x * dx

= 437.5. Lim(5,1) x*dx

= 437.5(x^2/2)^5 , 1

= 437.5 x (5^2/2 - 1/2)

= 437.5 x 12

= 5,250 pounds

The hydrostatic force against one side of the plate will be 5250 pounds.

What is hydrostatic force?

The force exerted by the water of surface is known as hydrostatic force.

A 4-ft-high and 7-ft-wide rectangular plate is submerged vertically in water so that the top is 1 ft below the surface.

[tex]\rm Force = \int^5_1 62.5 *7* x * dx\\\\\\ Force = 437.5 \left [ \dfrac{x^2}{2} \right]^5_1\\\\\\Force = 218.75 \left [ x^2 \right]^5_1\\\\[/tex]

Solve the equation further, we have

Force = 218.75 x (5² – 1²)

Force = 218.75 x 24

Force = 5,250 pounds

There are two different clocks in Wendy's house, one is 20 minutes faster in a day, and the other is 30 minutes slower in a day. If they are set to be the correct time now, how many days later will they both show the correct time?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first clock that is 20 minutes faster in a day, that means it is [tex]\frac{20\ min}{60\ min/hr}=\frac{1}{3}hr[/tex] faster every day. For it to show the correct time, the clock should be 24 hours faster.

Since 1 day = 1/3 hr faster

x days = 24 hr faster

Let x number of days be required to be 24 hr faster. To find x we use the formula:

[tex]x=\frac{24 \ hr* 1\ day}{\frac{1}{3}hr } \\x=72\ days[/tex]

For the second clock that is 30 minutes slower in a day, that means it is [tex]\frac{30\ min}{60\ min/hr}=\frac{1}{2}hr[/tex] faster every day. For it to show the correct time, the clock should be 24 hours slower.

Since 1 day = 1/2 hr slower

y days = 24 hr faster

Let x number of days be required to be 24 hr slower. To find x we use the formula:

[tex]y=\frac{24 \ hr* 1\ day}{\frac{1}{2}hr } \\y=48\ days[/tex]

Assume that you want to be 99% confident that the sample percentage is within 3.5 percentage points of the true population percentage.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the population proportion is not stated in the question, it will be assumed to be 50%. i.e. p = o.5

Error Margin, E = 3.5% = 0.035

The margin of error in a confidence interval estimate accounts for:_________

Answers

Answer:

The percentage points within which the obtained results would differ from the real population value.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ideas of the margin of error and confidence interval are borne from the observed truth, which is that there is always room for error in any statistically computed figure such as a survey or poll. For example, the result of a poll could show an 80% confidnce interval with a margin of error of 3%. This simply means that if the poll was repeated, 80% of the real population would fall within an estimate of 3%.

Statistics are not always error proof. Sometimes, the results might even be totally different from the computed results. So, it is very important that room is made for the possibility of an error, and that is why we need the mrgin of error.

The cost of 4 taco is $24, 5 taco is $30 and 6 taco is $36.

What is unitary Method?

The unitary technique involves first determining the value of a single unit, followed by the value of the necessary number of units.

For example, Let's say Ram spends 36 Rs. for a dozen (12) bananas.

12 bananas will set you back 36 Rs. 1 banana costs 36 x 12 = 3 Rupees.

As a result, one banana costs three rupees. Let's say we need to calculate the price of 15 bananas.

This may be done as follows: 15 bananas cost 3 rupees each; 15 units cost 45 rupees.

Given:

3 tacos cost $18.

Cost of 1 taco= 18/ 3

= $6

So, cost of 4 taco = 4 x 6 = $24

and, cost of 5 taco = 5 x 6= $30

A noble clemency did he show to the Olynthians, who elected Lasthenes to command the cavalry, and banished Apollonides! It is folly, and it is cowardice, to cherish hopes like these, to give way to evil counsels, to refuse to do anything that you should do, to listen to the advocates of the enemys cause, and to fancy that you dwell in so great a city that, whatever happens, you will not suffer any harm.
