Betty can mow a lawn in 60 minutes. Melissa can mow the same lawn in 30 minutes. How long does it take for both Betty and Melissa to mow the lawn if they are working together? Express your answer as a reduced fraction.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  20 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Melissa works as fast as two Bettys, so working together, they get the job done at the rate 3 Bettys could do it. That time is (60 minutes)/3 = 20 minutes.

Working together, Betty and Melissa can mow the lawn in 20 minutes.

_____

You can also think in terms of mowing rates as lawns per minute. The total mowing rate is ...

  Betty's rate + Melissa's rate = (1/60 lawns/min) +(1/30 lawns/min)

  = (1/60 +2/60) lawns/min = 1/20 lawns/min

The inverse rate is then ...

  20/1 min/lawn

Together, they take 20 minutes to mow 1 lawn.

How many gallons of a 50% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 90 gallons of 10% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 40% antifreeze? Use the six step method.​

Answers

Answer:

x = 270 gallons

270 gallons of a 50% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 90 gallons of 10% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 40% antifreeze

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of gallons of the 50% antifreeze solution.

The volume of the 10% antifreeze is = 90 gallons

The volume of the mixture that is 40% antifreeze = 90+x

The amount of antifreeze in the two solutions must be equal to the amount of anti freeze in the mixture;

50% of x + 10% of 90 = 40% of (90+x)

0.50(x) + 0.10(90) = 0.40(90+x)

0.50x + 9 = 36 + 0.40x

Collecting the like terms;

0.50x - 0.40x = 36-9

0.10x = 27

x = 27/0.10

x = 270 gallons

270 gallons of a 50% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 90 gallons of 10% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 40% antifreeze

You buy a 33-pound bag of flour for $9 or you can buy a 1- pound bag for $0.39. Compare the per pound cost for the large and small bag. How much is the pounds per dollar

Answers

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

9 dollars / 33 lbs = .272727 dollars per lb

.39 / 1 lbs = .39 per lb

The large bag is less expensive

Step-by-step explanation:

33lb bag = $9.00

1lb = $0.39

$9.00 bag per pound is $.0.27 per pound

If I bought 33, 1 pound bags it would cost $12.87

cheaper by $ 3.87 to buy the 9lb bag.

c. How many ways can a total inventory of 30 batteries be distributed among the eight different types if the inventory includes at most three A7b batteries?

Answers

Answer:

a. 10295472 ways

b. 4272048 ways

c. 6023424 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Camera shop stocks ----- 8 different types of batteries

one of which is ---- A76

Assume that there are ------ at least 30 batteries of each type.

a.

How many ways can a total inventory of 30 batteries be distributed among the eight different types.

The number of ways a total inventory of 30 batteries be distributed is :

[tex]= \left \{ {{30+8-1} \atop {30}} \right. \}[/tex]

[tex]= \left \{ {{37} \atop {30}} \right. \}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{37!}{30! *7!}[/tex]

[tex]= \dfrac{37*36*35*34*33*32*31*30!}{30!*7*6*5*4*3*2*1}[/tex]

[tex]= \dfrac{37*36*35*34*33*32*31}{7*6*5*4*3*2*1}[/tex]

= 10295472 ways

b.

How many ways can a total inventory of 30 batteries be distributed among the eight different types if the inventory must include at least four A76 batteries?

If we must include 4  A76 batteries; then the number of ways a total inventory of 30 batteries can be distributed among eight different types of batteries will be:

30 - 4 = 26 batteries

Now;

[tex]= \left \{ {{26+8-1} \atop {26}} \right. \}[/tex]

[tex]= \left \{ {{33} \atop {26}} \right. \}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{33!}{26! \ \ 7!}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{33*32*31*30*29*28*27*26!}{26! \ * \ 7*6*5*4*3*2*1}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{33*32*31*30*29*28*27}{ \ 7*6*5*4*3*2*1}[/tex]

= 4272048 ways

c. If we must include at most three A7b batteries. the number of ways that a total inventory of 30 batteries can be distributed among eight different types of inventory is:

[tex]= \sum \limits ^3 _{x=0} \left \{ {{(30-x)+7-1} \atop {30-x}} \right. \} \\ \\ \\ = \sum \limits ^3 _{x=0} \left \{ {{(30-0)+7-1} \atop {30-0}} \right. \} = (^{36}_{30})+(^{35}_{29})+ (^{34}_{28})+ (^{33}_{27})[/tex]

[tex]= \dfrac{36!}{30! * 6!} + \dfrac{35!}{29! * 6!} + \dfrac{34!}{28! * 6!} + \dfrac{33!}{27! * 6!}[/tex]

= 1947792 + 1623160 + 1344904 + 1107568

Total members on the board = 12

a. Persons to chose : chairperson, first vice​ chairperson, second vice​ chairperson, and​ secretary

i.e. Total 3 posts in an order.

Number of ways to choose 3 persons from 12 in an order = [tex]^{12}P_3[/tex]  [By permutation]

A pet store has 32 more dogs than cats. If there are a total of 144 dogs and cats altogether, then how many cats does the pet store have?

PLZ ANSWER ASAP THANKS

Answers

Answer:

56 cats

88 dogs

Step-by-step explanation:

x=cats

x+32=dogs

x+x+32=144

2x=144-32

2x=112

x=112/2

x=56 (56 cats)

x+32=88 (88 dogs)

Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this question you need to subtract 32 by 144 then divide that answer by 2.

So we know that they're 32 more dogs then cats and there is 144 dogs and cats all together.

[tex]144 - 32 = 112[/tex]

Divide it in half

[tex]112 \div2=56[/tex]

[tex]56+32 = 88[/tex]

[tex]= 56[/tex]

Therefore they're 56 cats in the pet store.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rotation of 180° changes the signs of x and y

Shift right one unit adds 1 to x, Shift two down subtracts 2 from y

(-x, -y)   →   (-x + 1, -y - 2)

  (x, y)          (-x + 1, -y - 2)  

(-1, -2)    →       (2, 0)

A student earned grades of​ B, B,​ A, C, and D. Those courses had these corresponding numbers of credit​ hours: 4,​ 5, 1,​ 5, 4. The grading system assigns quality points to letter grades as​ follows: Aequals=​4, Bequals=​3, Cequals=​2, Dequals=​1, and Fequals=0. Compute the grade point average​ (GPA) and round the result to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

1.69

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the five courses with their corresponding credit hours be represented as shown;

FST 201 = 4

FST 203 = 5

FST 112 = 1

FST 219 = 5

FST 223 = 4

If a student earned grades of​ B, B,​ A, C, and D respectively in those courses with the following grading system  A =​4, B =​3, C =​2, D =​1, and F =0, before we can get the student GPA, we need to know the total credit point for the five courses.

Credit point for each course = Number of credit hour * point for each grade

FST 201 = 4 * 4 = 16points (A)

FST 203 = 5 * 4 = 20points (A)

FST 112 = 1 * 4  = 4points (A)

FST 219 = 5 * 4 = 20points (A)

FST 223 = 4 * 4 = 16points (A)

Total credit point = 16+20+4+20+16 = 76points

Total credit point gotten by the student is calculated as thus;

FST 201 = 4 * 3 = 12points (B)

FST 203 = 5 * 3 = 15points (B)

FST 112 = 1 * 4  = 4points (A)

FST 219 = 5 * 2 = 10points (C)

FST 223 = 4 * 1 = 4points (D)

Total credit point gotten by the student = 45points.

student's Grade Point Average​ (GPA) = Total credit point/Total credit point gotten by the student = 76/45 = 1.69 (to 2dp)

If the area to the left of x in a normal distribution is 0.187, what is the area to the right of x? (Enter an exact number as an integer, fraction, or decimal.)

Answers

Answer:

Area to the right is 0.813

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the area under the full normal distribution should render "1" (one), then the area to the right of x  should be:

1 - area to the left of x = 1 - 0.187 = 0.813

The area to the right of x in this normal distribution will be 0.813.

What is a normal distribution?

The majority of the observations are centered around the middle peak of the normal distribution, which is a continuous probability distribution that is symmetrical around its mean.

The probabilities for values that are farther from the mean taper off equally in both directions. Extreme values in the distribution's two tails are likewise rare.

Not all symmetrical distributions are normal, even though the normal distribution is symmetrical. 

We know that the total area described in a normal distribution is 1.

Given, that the area to the left of x in a normal distribution is 0.187.

So, the area to the right of x will be,

1 - 0.187.

= 0.813.
