a piece of cheese weighting 2/3 pound is to be divided into 8 equal portions. what will be the weight of each portion?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1/12 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 x 1/8 = 2/24 = 1/12

Answer 2
Answer: 1/12

Step-by-step explanation: 2/3 / 8/1 is actually multiplying the first number by the reciprocal of the second. So 2/3 x 1/8. That equals 0.08333... or 1/12.

WX = YX                                              Given

XZ ≅ XZ                                               Reflexive property. The reflexive  

                                                            property of congruence states that

                                                             Triangle XYW forms a right angled  

                                                             triangle since YX = WX

∠XZY + ∠XYZ + ∠YXZ = 180°            Sum of angles in triangle YZX

∠XWZ + ∠WXZ + ∠XZW =                 Substitution

∠XZY + ∠XYZ + ∠YXZ

solve the question below

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

1) A triangle is a polygon with three sides and three angles. There are different types of triangles such as obtuse, scalene, right angle, equilateral and isosceles triangle.

Given that triangle ABC is right angled and AC = 25 cm = hypotenuse and BC = 15 cm. Using Pythagoras:

AC² = BC² + AB²

25² = AB² + 15²

AB² = 25² - 15²

AB² = 400

AB = √400

AB = 20 cm

Using sine rule:

[tex]\frac{sin(B)}{AC}=\frac{sin(A)}{BC}=\frac{sin(C)}{AB}\\\\But\ \angle B= 90^o(right\ angle)\ hence:\\\\ \frac{sin(B)}{AC}=\frac{sin(A)}{BC}\\\\\frac{sin(90)}{25}=\frac{sin(A)}{15}\\\\sin(A)=\frac{sin(90)}{25}*15\\\\sin(A)=0.6\\\\A=sin^{-1}(0.6)\\\\A=36.87^o[/tex]

2)

Using Pythagoras:

hypotenuse² = 8² + 6²

hypotenuse² = 100

hypotenuse = √100

hypotenuse = 10

Using sine rule:

[tex]\frac{sin(x)}{8}=\frac{sin(90)}{10}\\\\sin(x)=\frac{sin(90)}{10}*8\\\\sin(x)=0.8\\\\x=sin^{-1}(0.8)\\\\x=53.13 ^o[/tex]

Option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find equivalent of [tex]tan\:\left(\frac{5\pi }{6}\right)[/tex]

First we solve [tex]tan\:\left(\frac{5\pi }{6}\right)[/tex]

Solving [tex]tan\left(-\frac{\pi }{6}\right)\: we\: get\: \mathbf{ -\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }}[/tex]

Option B: [tex]tan\left(\frac{7\pi }{6}\right)[/tex]

Solving [tex]tan\left(\frac{7\pi }{6}\right)\: we\: get\: \mathbf{\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }}[/tex]

Option C: [tex]cot\left(\frac{5\pi }{6}\right)[/tex]

Solving [tex]cot\left(\frac{5\pi }{6}\right)\:we\:get\:\mathbf{-\sqrt{3} }[/tex]

Option D : [tex]tan\left(-\frac{5\pi }{6}\right)[/tex]

Solving [tex]tan\left(-\frac{5\pi }{6}\right) \:we\:get:\mathbf{\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} } }[/tex]

So, looking at the options, only Option A has the same result as given question

What is the inverse of the function f(x) = 4x + 8?

Answers

Answer:

h(x) = (1/4)x - 2 which is choice A

Step-by-step explanation:

Replace f(x) with y. Then swap x and y. Lastly, solve for y to get the inverse.

f(x) = 4x+8

y = 4x+8

x = 4y+8

x-8 = 4y

4y = x-8

y = (x-8)/4

y = x/4 - 8/4

y = (1/4)x - 2

h(x) = (1/4)x - 2

An experiment was conducted as a one-way factorial design with K sample means, each based on n scores. What is the number of degrees of freedom for the between mean squares

Answers

Answer:

The mean squares has d.f (n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of degrees of freedom is n-1 as there is only one restriction of computing the grand mean. The d.f for k samples is k-1 beacuase the mean of the sample means must equal the grand mean. Similarly , the d.f for within SS is n-k , due to the k restrictions of computing the k sample means. Hence we find that

Total df= Within df + Between df

n-1=  (n-k)+(k-1)

Between SS has (k-1) d.f

Within SS has (n-k) d.f

These two quantities are known as mean squares and has d.f (n-1)

Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.

Answers

Answer: y=-3/4x

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form is when you use the equation y=mx+b (m is the slope and b is the y-intercept). First, let's find the y intercept. The y intercept is what y would be if x is 0. here, you can see that this particular line passes through the origin. So, the y-intercept is zero because when x passes through zero, y is also zero. Next, let's find the slope. The formula for slope is change in y/change in x. Let's randomly choose 2 points off this line. To make this a thousand times easier for us, let's choose the points (-4, 3) and (4, -3). Now, to find the change in y, let's find the difference between the 2 y coordinates we have chosen. To do this we just need to do -3-3, which gives us -6. Now let's find the change in x. To do this we will do the same thing we did to find the change in y but this time we'll use the x coordinates. We will do 4-(-4), which simplifies to 8. Now, we're almost done. Just divide the change in y by the change in x. You will get -6/8. This can be simplified to -3/4. So now we know our slope is -3/4 and our y-intercept is 0. Let's insert them into the equation. y=-3/4x+0. We know that we can just get rid of that 0 because 0 literally means nothing. So our final answer is y=-3/4x. Hope this helps!

What percent of their total goal did Bethany's family donate? F 0.75% G 75% H 2.5% J 0.25%​

Answers

Answer:

0.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount to generate at fundraiser = $8000

Amount donated by Bethany family = $60

The percentage of Bethany's donation towards the fundraiser is :

Let percentage = x

x% of 8000 = 60

x/100 * 8000 = 60

0.01x * 8000 = 60

80x = 60

Divide both sides by des by 80

80x / 80 = 60 / 80

x = 0.75

Suppose you have a population in which 60% of the people approve of gambling. Is the value 0.60 a parameter or a statistic

Answers

Answer:0.60 is a parameter .

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics, a parameter is a number that summarize the data for a whole population.

On the other hand , statistic gives a measure for sample of population.

Given: We have a population in which 60% of the people approve of gambling.

60% = 0.60

Since it is a measure for the population , it is denoted as population parameter.

Hence, 0.60 is a parameter not statistic.

In the given case we have:

y = 4.5x + 10

This is a linear function but not proportional relationship because it has y-intercept, different than zero
