A family has two cars. The first car has a fuel efficiency of 20 miles per gallon of gas and the second has a fuel efficiency of 15 miles per gallon of gas. During
one particular week, the two cars went a combined total of 1325 miles, for a total gas consumption of 75 gallons. How many gallons were consumed by each of
the two cars that week?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

40 and 35

Step-by-step explanation:

If we say the first car uses x gallons then the second car must use 75 - x gallons.

The distance travelled is the number of gallons used * the efficiency of the car.

20x + 15(75-x)=1325

20x + 1125 - 15x = 1325

5x = 200

x = 40

This means that the first car uses 40 gallons and the second car uses 75-40= 35 gallons

Bernie's Bargains 6 DVDs for $56.70

Greg's Giveaways 10 DVDs for $99.70

Stan's Steals 8 DVDs for $79.68

Answers

Answer:

Total cost= $141.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Bernie's Bargains 6 DVDs for $56.70

Greg's Giveaways 10 DVDs for $99.70

Stan's Steals 8 DVDs for $79.68

First, we need to determine the unitary price of each and choose the lowest one:

Bernie= 56.7/6= $9.45

Greg= 99.7/10= $9.7

Stan= 79.68/8= $9.96

The lowest price is $9.45.

Now, the total cost of 15 DVDs:

Total cost= 9.45*15

Total cost= $141.75

Assume that x has a normal distribution with the specified mean and standard deviation. Find the indicated probability. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
μ = 29;
σ = 3.4
P(x ≥ 30) = ______.

Answers

Answer:

P(x ≥ 30) = 0.3859

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 29, \sigma = 3.4[/tex]

This probability is going to be 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 30. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{30 - 29}{3.4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.29[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.29[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.6141

1 - 0.6141 = 0.3859

So

P(x ≥ 30) = 0.3859

sally is taking a test
when she got her score it was 85% of 100% how many questions was on the test and how many did she get wrong

Answers

Answer:

There was 20 questions on the test.

She got 3 wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{85}{100} = \frac{17}{20}[/tex]

20 - 17 = 3

There was 20 questions on the test.

She got 3 wrong.

Answer: There were 20 questions and she missed three.

First of all, you need to simplify 85/100.

85/100 / 5/5 = 17/20.

Now that you know how many questions were on the test, subtract 17 from 20.

20 - 17 = 3

So in conclusion, the test had 20 questions and she missed three.

But this question doesn’t have enough info to be honest, if you multiply 17/20 with any number it’s still going to be 85%.

Given that kx^2 + hx - 4 = 0 has no roots. Find the ranges of value of k

Answers

Answer:

The ranges of value of k are values larger than 0 and lower than 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose we have a second order polynomial in the following format:

[tex]ax^2 + bx + c = 0, a \neq 0[/tex]

It will have no roots if:

[tex]\Delta = b^2 - 4ac < 0[/tex]

In this question, we have that:

[tex]hx^2 + hx - 4 = 0[/tex]

So, the coefficients are:

[tex]a = h, b = h, c = -4[/tex]

Then

[tex]\Delta < 0[/tex]

[tex]b^2 - 4ac < 0[/tex]

[tex]h^2 - 16h < 0[/tex]

A quadratic function, with a positive(as is 1 in this inequality), will be negative between it's roots.

The roots are:

[tex]h^2 - 16h = 0[/tex]

[tex]h(h - 16) = 0[/tex]

So

h = 0 or h = 16.

The ranes of value of k are values larger than 0 and lower than 16.

What is work and time relationship?

Work is the effort applied to produce a deliverable or accomplish a task. A certain amount of time (T) is taken to complete a certain work (W).

Work Done = Time Taken × Rate of Work.

Rate of Work = 1 / Time Taken.

Time Taken = 1 / Rate of Work.

According to the question

Dan and Joan were able to clean the attic in 7 hours together

i.e

Rate of Dan = D

Rate of Joan = J

now,

Rate of Work = 1 / Time Taken.

D + J = [tex]\frac{1}{7}[/tex]

It takes Joan 9 hours to complete the same job alone

i.e

J = [tex]\frac{1}{9}[/tex]

Rate of Dan :

D + J = [tex]\frac{1}{7}[/tex]

D +  [tex]\frac{1}{9}[/tex] =  [tex]\frac{1}{7}[/tex]

D =   [tex]\frac{1}{7}[/tex] -  [tex]\frac{1}{9}[/tex]

D = [tex]\frac{2}{63}[/tex]

Therefore , Time taken by Dan  to complete the same job

As,

Time Taken = 1 / Rate of Work.  

Time taken by Dan = [tex]\frac{63}{2}[/tex]

                                 = 31.5 hr

Hence,  It would take 31.5 hours for Dan to complete the same job.

what is the coefficient of xy^2
in the expansion of (x+y)^3?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Binomial Expansion,

(x + y)³

= 3C0 * x³ + 3C1 * x²y + 3C2 * xy² + 3C3 * y³.

Therefore the coefficient of xy² is 3C2 = 3.

Answer:

The coefficient of the xy² term is 3.

For your question about xy⁵, the coefficient is 6

And for the x²y² question, it is also 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We can simply expand the expression to find the answer:

(x + y)³

= (x + y)(x + y)(x + y)

= (x + y)(x² + 2xy + y²)

= x³ + 2x²y + xy² + x²y + 2xy² + y³

= x³ + 3x²y + 3xy² + y³

So the term term containing xy² has a coefficient of 3

Now, there's actually a simple way to do this, and that's using Pascal's triangle.  If you're not familiar with it, here's a quick representation of the first few lines:

0                                    1

1                                  1     1

2                              1     2     1

3                           1     3     3     1

4                       1      4     6     4     1

5                    1      5    10    10    5    1

6                1      6     15   20   15    6    1

7             1      7     21   35   35   21   7    1

8         1      8     28   56  70   56   28  8   1

You'll notice that each number is simply the sum of the two numbers above it; below 4 and 6 wes see 10, below 20 and 15 is 35, etc.

This is very useful in this case, as the you may notice that the solution to each of the questions asked can be answered by this triangle.  For instance, when we solved (x + y)³, the coefficients of the terms were  1, 3, 3, and 1.  For a perfect square, it's 1, 2 and 1, and so on.  So to get the answers to your questions, you need only look at this triangle.

For example, want the the coefficent of the fourth term in the expansion of (x + y)⁷, it's easy, just look at the seventh row, and look for the fourth number, which would be 35.

But as we're given the x and y powers, but not the position of the term, we need to work that out as well.  Thankfully there's an easy trick to that.  The exponents will always be like this

[tex]x^{n}y^0 + x^{n - 1}y^1 + x^{n - 2}y^2 + ..... + x^2y^{n - 2} + x^1y^{n - 1} + x^0y^{n}[/tex]

where n is the number we're raising the binomial to.

We could put together an equation to solve this, but instead of going through a whole lesson, I'll just update the answer at the top.

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this question, we have that:

So

[tex]p = \frac{14}{62} = \frac{7}{31}[/tex]
