Answer:
If x-y is a natural number, then x and y are natural numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
The converse of ...
If P, then Q.
is ...
If Q, then P.
__
Here, we have ...
P = "x and y are natural numbers"
Q = "x-y is a natural number"
So, the converse is ...
If x-y is a natural number, then x and y are natural numbers.
_____
In this case, the converse is false.
Tara's website, verdantveggies.com, specializes in the sale of rare or unusual vegetable seeds. Tara sells packets of sweet-pepper seeds for $2.85 each and packets of hot-pepper seeds for $4.29 each. She also offers a 16-packet mixed-pepper assortment combining packets of both types of seeds at $3.30 per packet. How many packets of each type of seed are in the assortment?
Answer:
Let's define the variables:
S = # of sweet pepper seeds in the mix pack.
H = # of hot pepper seeds in the mix pack.
Let's suppose that $3.30 is the mean price of the seeds in the mix pack.
Then we have two equations:
S + H = 16.
(S*$2.85 + H*$4.29)/16 = $3.30
Now let's solve this system.
The first step is isolating one variable in one of the equations, i will isolate S in the first equation.
S = 16 - H.
Now we can replace this in the second equation, and solve it for H.
( (16 - H)*$2.85 + H*$4.29)/16 = $3.30
( (16 - H)*$2.85 + H*$4.29) = $3.30*16 = $52.80
$45.60 + H*$1.44 = $52.80
H*$1.44 = $52.80 - $45.60 = $7.20
H = $7.20/$1.44 = 5
Then in the mix pack there are 5 hot-pepper seeds.
And the other 11 must be sweet-pepper seeds
Algebraic equations are equations that contain unknown variables.
The number of packets of sweet-pepper seeds is 11 and the number of packets of hot-pepper seeds is 5.
Let's represent:is
The number of packets of sweet-pepper seeds = s
The number of packets of hot-pepper seeds = h
Based on this question, our system of equations are:
$2.85 x s + $4.29 x h = $3.30(16)
2.85s + 4.29h = 52.8...........Equation 1
s + h = 16...........Equation 2
s = 16 - h
We substitute 16 - h for s in Equation 1
2.85(16 - h) + 4.29h = 52.8
45.6 -2.85h + 4.29h = 52.8
Subtract 45.6 from both sides
45.6 - 45.6 -2.85h + 4.29h = 52.8 - 45.6
1.44h = 7.2
h = 5
There are 5 hot-pepper seeds in the assortment.
Solving for the number of sweet-pepper seeds.
s = 16 - h
s = 16 - 5
s = 11
There are 11 sweet-pepper seeds in the assortment.
Therefore, the number of packets of sweet-pepper seeds is 11 and the number of packets of hot-pepper seeds is 5.

175 students enrolled in a freshman-level chemistry class. By the end of the semester, 4 times the number of students passed as failed. Find the number of students who passed, and the number of students who failed.
Answer:
35 failed and 140 passed
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p = number who passed
f = number who failed
p+f = 175
4 times the number of students passed as failed, so we need to balance this to set it equal
4f = p
Substitute this into the first equation
4r+f = 175
5f = 175
5f/5 =175/5
f = 35
Now find the number who passed
p = 4f
p = 4*35
p =140

2/15 = h/125 need a step by step please
====================================
Work Shown:
2/15 = h/125
2*125 = 15*h .... cross multiply
250 = 15h
15h = 250
h = 250/15
h = (5*50)/(5*3)
h = 50/3
-----------------
Extra info:
50/3 = (48+2)/3
50/3 = (48/3)+(2/3)
50/3 = 16 + (2/3)
50/3 = 16 & 2/3
The improper fraction 50/3 converts to the mixed number 16 & 2/3
Another way to see this is to use long division to get 50/3 = 16 remainder 2.

answer as reduced fraction
please help omg im dying
Answer:
[tex] \frac{7}{9} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
it seems like you're asking what the solution of each equation is put into a fraction
so, putting in 3 for g gives you
[tex]3(3) + 5 = 14[/tex]
which then goes over
[tex]((3) - 1 = 2)((3) + 6 = 9) = 18[/tex]
which gives
[tex] \frac{14}{18} [/tex]
however, this can be reduced to
[tex] \frac{7}{9} [/tex]
because both 14 and 18 can be divided by 2.

Let us take ,

According to first Condition :-
⇒ x - y = 1.
⇒ x = y + 1. .............(i)
According to second Condition :-
⇒ x × y = 30 .
⇒ ( y + 1 )y = 30 . [ From (i) ]
⇒ y² + y = 30.
⇒ y² + y - 30 = 0 .
⇒ y² + 6y - 5y -30 = 0.
⇒ y ( y + 6 ) -5 ( y + 6 ) = 0 .
⇒ ( y + 6 ) ( y - 5 ) = 0 .
[tex]\red{\bf \longmapsto y = 5 , (-6)}[/tex]
Here y can sustain both values 5 and minus 6 as y is an integer.

bob is on his way home in his car. he has driven 30 miles so far, which is three-fifths of the way home. what is the total length of his drive?
The length of Bob's drive as a fraction = 5/5
Let the length of his total drive be = x
30 miles driven by Bob as a fraction =
= 3/5 of x = 30
= 3/5x = 30
= 5/x = 30 ÷ 3 ( transposing ×3 from LHS to RHS changes ×3 to ÷3 )
=5/x = 10
= x = 10 × 5 ( transposing ÷5 from LHS to RHS changes ÷5 to ×5 )
= x = 50
Now we have to see what is =
= 2/5 of 50
= 2/5 × 50
= 100/5
= 20 miles
So , total length of Bob's drive = 30 miles + 20 miles = 50 miles .
∴ The total length of Bob's drive is 50 miles .

63.5ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Given parameters:
Length = 19[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] ft
Width = 12ft
Unknown:
Area of rectangle = ?
Perimeter of rectangle = ?
Solution:
Area of rectangle = length x width
= 19[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] x 12
= [tex]\frac{79}{4}[/tex] x 12

The toco toucan, the largest member of the toucan family, possesses the largest beak relative to body size of all birds. This exaggerated feature has received various interpretations, such as being a refined adaptation for feeding. However, the large surface area may also be an important mechanism for radiating heat (and hence cooling the bird) as outdoor temperature increases. Here are data for beak heat loss, as a percent of total body heat loss, at various temperatures in degrees Celsius:
Temperature (degrees Celsius) 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30
Percent heat loss from beak 35 36 38 28 41 43 55 46 39 54 45 58 60 56 62 67

d. Find the correlation r (
±
0.001) between beak heat loss and temperature.

Show that each conjecture is false by finding a counterexample.
1.For any integer n, n3 > 0.
2. Each angle in a right triangle has a different measure.
3.For many years in the U.S, each bank printed its own currency. The variety of different bills led to widespread counterfeiting. By the time of the Civil War, a significant fraction of the currency in circulation was counterfeit. If one soldier had 48 bills, 16 of which were counterfeit, and another soldier had 39 bills, 13 of which were counterfeit, make a conjecture about what fraction of bills were counterfeit at the time of the Civil War.
Answer:
1. [tex]n: n^3 > 0[/tex] is not true for negative integers
2. [tex]45\ and\ 45[/tex] show that all angles do not have different measure
3. [tex]Fraction = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving (1):
[tex]n: n^3 > 0[/tex]
Take
[tex]n = -1[/tex]
[tex]-1^3 = -1[/tex]
[tex]n: n^3 > 0[/tex] is not true for negative integers
Solving (2):
The angles of a right angled triangle are:
[tex]45, 45\ and\ 90[/tex]
[tex]45\ and\ 45[/tex] show that all angles do not have different measure
Solving (3):
When
[tex]Bills = 48[/tex]
[tex]Counterfeit = 16[/tex]
The fraction is calculated as thus:
[tex]Fraction = \frac{Counterfeit}{Bills}[/tex]
[tex]Fraction = \frac{16}{48}[/tex]
[tex]Fraction = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Similarly, when
[tex]Bills = 39[/tex]
[tex]Counterfeit = 13[/tex]
[tex]Fraction = \frac{Counterfeit}{Bills}[/tex]
[tex]Fraction = \frac{13}{39}[/tex]
[tex]Fraction = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Quadrilateral GHJK has vertices G(2, 3), H(8, 2), J(6, 8), and K(3, 6). It is transformed according to the rule T(–4, –5).
What are the coordinates of G”?

Answer:
the transformation T(a, b) can be change the pre image to the final image by following the rule as we explain below
if A(x, y) is a pre image, then A ' ( x', y') is its image, and x' = a+x, y' = b + y, where because of T(a, b) transformation
in our case Quadrilateral GHJK has vertices G(2, 3), so the coordinates of G”
can be found with
T(-4, -5) applied to G(2, 3) ⇒ G' (-4 +2, -5+3)=G' (-2, -2)
T(-4, -5) applied to G' (-2, -2) ⇒ G"(-4-2, -5-2) =G"(-6, -7)
the coordinates of G” are (-6, -7)
