An object traveled a total of 21 1/2 miles in five hours. If it traveled an equal number of miles each hour, how many miles did it travel each hour?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:   4.3 miles

The decimal 4.3 is equivalent to the mixed number 4 & 3/10

=============================================================

Explanation:

Fractions are often a pain, so I find it helpful to convert to decimal form whenever possible.

1/2 = 0.5

21 & 1/2 = 21 + 1/2 = 21 + 0.5 = 21.5

21 & 1/2 miles = 21.5 miles

The object travels 21.5 miles in 5 hours. Divide the distance over the time value to get the speed (or rate). This is exactly identical to finding the number of miles traveled in one hour (since each hour the object travels the same amount of distance)

speed = distance/time = 21.5/5 = 4.3 mph

4.3 = 4 + 0.3 = 4 + 3/10 = 4 & 3/10

In my opinion, it is much easier to use decimals. Saying "the object traveled a distance of 4 & 3/10 miles" seems very clunky to me.

Therefore, each hour, the object travels 4.3 miles.

A. a=2, b=27, c=3

B. a=2, b=-27, c=-3

C. a=2, b=-3, c=-27

D. a=2, b=3, c=27

Answers

Answer:

Third Choice: a = 2, b = -3, c = -27

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation to be solved with the quadratic formula must be written in the form

ax^2 + bx + c = 0

2x^2 = 27 + 3x

Subtract 3x from both sides. Subtract 27 from both sides.

2x^2 - 3x - 27 = 0

Now we see we have

a = 2, b = -3, c = -27

Max has 8 8 boxes of cans for a food drive. ​Each box has 17 17 cans. ​Max ​gives half of the boxes to his teacher. ​ ​Write an expression that ​represents the total number of cans in all the boxes that his teacher ​has. ​

Answers

Answer:

Total cans = 17 (4)

Step-by-step explanation:

If Max has 8 boxes and gives half of the boxes to his teacher, then the teacher has 4 boxes.

Now, the teacher has 4 boxes but each box has 17 cans inside. To represent how many cans the teacher has, we will need to multiply the number of boxes by the number of cans each box has,

Then, the Total number of cans = [tex]17(4)[/tex] = 68.

Thus, the expression that represents the total number of cans in all the boxes that the teacher has would be: Total cans = 17 (4)

Solve 2(ax-by)+(a+4b)=0, 2(bx+ay)+(b-4b) using linear equation

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

2(ax-by)+(a+4b)=0                   .              .               .         1)

2(bx+ay)+(b-4a) = 0              .                 .                 .         2)

Equation 1 gives:

2ax - 2by + a + 4b = 0          .                .             .      1)

Equation 2 gives:

2bx + 2ay + b - 4a    =    0     .              .                   .     1)

Multiplying equation 1 by a and equation 2 by b :

2a²x - 2aby + a² + 4ab = 0

2b²x + 2aby + b² - 4ab = 0

Adding together:

2a²x  +  2b²x + a² + b² = 0

2x (a² + b²) = -(a² + b²)

2x = -1

x = -1/2

Multiplying equation 1 by b and equation 2 by a:

2abx · 2b²y + ab + 4b² = 0

2abx + 2a²y + ab - 4a² = 0

Subtracting:

2y(a² + b²) - 4(a² + b²) = 0

2y(a² + b²) = 4(a² + b²)

2y = 4

y = 2

Sergio wants to buy both chicken and ham to serve at a holiday dinner. Chicken costs $4.29 per pound, and ham costs $6.99 per pound. The maximum amount Sergio can spend is $88.00. If x represents the number of pounds of chicken Sergio buys, and y represents the number of pounds of ham he buys, which inequality represents this situation?

Answers

Answer:

4.29x + 6.99y ≤ 88

Step-by-step explanation:

x represents the number of pounds of chicken he can buy and y represents the number of pounds of ham he can buy. Multiplying the price per pound by the number of pounds he will buy will give you the amount of money he will spend and here he has only $88. Which means the amount of money he will spend should be less than or equal to $88 as shown in the inequality above.

Answer:

Total no. of cases = 6954

No. of cases decided = 82

Percentage decided = (82/6954)x100 = 1.17%

Answer:

1.18%

Step-by-step explanation:

A percentage can be found by dividing the part by the whole. then multiplying by 100.

(part/whole) * 100

In this problem, the part is the cases decided by the Supreme Court. The whole is the total number of cases filed.

(cases decided / cases filed) *100

There were 82 cases decided by the Supreme Court, out of a total of 6,954 cases filed.

(82/6954) *100

First, solve the parentheses and divide.

0.0117917745* 100

Multiply

1.17917745 %

Round to the nearest hundredth. The 9 in the thousandth place tells us to round the 7 up to an 8 in the hundredth place.

A study is performed involving two remedies for midwest farm crops who experienced the worst drought in years. In the midwest, 450 crop fields were given randomly one of two remedies. Specifically, 220 were given Remedy A and 230 were given Remedy B. A total of 74 of the 450 crop fields were salvageable, 35 from Remedy A group and 39 from Remedy B group.

A significance test was performed for the following hypotheses and resulted in a p-value of 0.3822:
H0: Salvage rates are the same for Remedy A and B
Ha: Remedy B has a greater salvage rate

Part A: Interpret the p-value in terms of the context.
Part B: Using a significance level of α = 0.05, what can you conclude from the context of this study?

Answers

Answer:

Part A

The p-value indicates that the largest probability of having the two remedies having a difference as observed or larger than as observed  being equal to 0.3822

Part B:

Given that the p-value of 0.3822 is larger than the significance level α of 0.05, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and we conclude that there is enough statistical evidence to suggest that the salvage rates are the same for Remedy A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

The p-value

The test statistic is given as follows;

[tex]Z=\dfrac{\hat{p}_1-\hat{p}_2}{\sqrt{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})\left (\dfrac{1}{n_{1}}+\dfrac{1}{n_{2}} \right )}}[/tex]

[tex]\hat p_1[/tex] = 35/220 = 7/44

[tex]\hat p_2[/tex] = 39/230

[tex]\hat p[/tex] = 74/220 = 37/110

We get our test statistic z = -0.2996381

Part A

The p-value indicates that the largest probability of having the two remedies having a difference as observed or larger than as observed  being equal to 0.3822

Part B:

Given that the p-value of 0.3822 is larger than the significance level α of 0.05, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and we conclude that there is enough statistical evidence to suggest that the salvage rates are the same for Remedy A and B.

how many stakes 5.5 feets long can be cut from 10 lengths of lumber each 12 feet long

Answers

Answer:

20 or 21 stakes

Step-by-step explanation:

It would be 20 if you were not able to use the extra wood after cutting two 5.5 foot long segments from each lumber. If you can use the extra 1 foot from each lumber then you would have an extra 10 feet of lumber which you could get one 5.5 foot long stake from.

The number of stakes will be 22.

What is an expression?

Expression in maths is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using signs like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Given that 5.5 feet long can be cut from 10 lengths of lumber each 12 feet long.

The total length is calculated as:-

Total length = 12 x 10 = 120 feet

Number of stakes = 120 / 5.5 = 21.81 ≅ 22

Hence, the number of stakes is 22.

The probability of pulling a green marble out of a bag of colored marbles is 2:5. If you were to pull colored marbles out of the bag one at a time, and putting the marble back each time for 600 tries, approximately how many time would you select a green marble?? ( explanation too) 7th grade Math

Answer:

We would approximately pick a green marble 240 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given from the question the probability of pulling a green marble out of a bag of colored marbles is 2:5

Let us denote the number of trials as X

Now the approximately number of times a green marble can be selected would be

=2/5 times

From the question we are given 600 trials

which implies our x=600

Therefore, the number of times we would pick a green marble is:

2/5 × 600 times

≈ 240 times

Therefore, we would approximately pick a green marble 240 times

x - 3y = 6 -------(II)

Substitute x = 8 - 2y in equation (II)

8 - 2y - 3y = 6    {add like terms}

8 - 5y = 6

Subtract 8 form both sides

 -5y = 6- 8

y = 2/5

Substitute y = 2/5 in equation (I)
