Mandy and Priscilla shared a packet of stickers.At first, the number of stickers Mandy had was 1/4 of the number of stickers Priscilla had. When the girls bought another 28 stickers each, the number of stickers Priscilla had was 1/5 more than the number of stickers Mandy had. How many stickers were there in the packet? Solve if you can, using ALGEBRA ONLY, pls.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

10 stickers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that Mandy has m stickers, and Priscilla has p stickers.

m = 1/4p

6/5(m + 28) = p + 28

6/5(1/4p + 28) = p + 28

1/4p + 28 = 5/6p + 23 and 1/3

5/6p - 1/4p = 28 - 23 and 1/3

10/12p - 3/12p = 84/3 - 70/3

7/12p = 14/3

p = (14/3)(12/7)

p = 8

At the beginning, Priscilla had 8 stickers. That means that Mandy had 1/4 * 8 = 8 / 4 = 2 stickers.

So, in the packet, there were 8 + 2 = 10 stickers.

Hope this helps!

b) x₆ ≤ 8000s₆

c) s₄ + s₆ = 1

d) MIN 15x₄ + 18x₆ + 2000s₄ + 3500s₆

Explanation:

a) The constraint that sets next week's maximum production of the 4-cylinder connecting rods to either 0 to 8000 units, is written as:

x₄ ≤ 8000s₄

b) The constraint that sets next week's maximum production of the 4-cylinder connecting rods to either 0 to 6000 units is written as:

x₆ ≤ 8000s₆

c) The constraint that requires that production be setup for exactly one of the two rods:

Since we have:

x₄ ≤ 8000s₄ ; x₆ ≤ 8000s₆

The constraint that requires that production be setup for exactly one of the two rods will be:

s₄ + s₆ = 1

d) Write the cost function to be minimized:

Since we are to find the cost function to be minimized, we take the function below:

MIN 15x₄ + 18x₆ + 2000s₄ + 3500s₆

A bag contains 17 counters all of different colours. Colin chooses one counter and gives it to Obi, and another counter and gives it to Zeema. In how many ways can Colin do this?

Answers

Answer:

Colin can do this is 272 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first counter goes to Obi and the second to Zeema, so the order is important. This means that we use the permutations formula to solve this question.

Permutations formula:

The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by the following formula:

[tex]P_{(n,x)} = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}[/tex]

In this question:

Two counters from a set of 17. So

[tex]P_{(17,2)} = \frac{17!}{(17-2)!} = 272[/tex]

Colin can do this is 272 ways.

Answer:

All angles in any quadrilateral adds up to 360°

Step-by-step explanation:

We can prove this by using 180(n - 2)

n = 4 for a quadrilateral

180(4 - 2)

180(2)

360°

So, 360 - (125 + 67 + 80) = 88°

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angles of a quadrilateral (having 4 sides) add up to 360 degrees.

=> So, to find x, we'll simply subtract the rest if the angles from 360

So,

=> x = 360-125-67-80

=> x = 88 degrees

15 liters of water flow
through a water pipe
and enter a tank
within 4.5 minutes
How much time does
it take to pump 727.5
liters of water into a
water tank using 2
similar water pipes?​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 15 liters of water flow through a water pipe and enter a tank within 4.5 minutes, the same amount of water would flow through a similar pipe at the same time. Therefore, if two similar water pipes are used, the volume of water that would flow into the tank in 4.5 minutes is 15 × 2 = 30 liters

Therefore, the time it will take to pump 727.5 liters of water into a water tank using 2 similar water pipes is

(727.5 × 4.5)/30 = 109.125 minutes

What is the angle of rotation from figure A to figure A’? Assume that the center of rotation is the origin. A. 180° clockwise B. 90° counterclockwise C. 180° counterclockwise D. 270° counterclockwise

Answers

Answer:

B.90°counterclockwise

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

A. If you rotate a figure in the first quadrant 180 degrees clockwise it will end up in the third quadrant so the answer can't be A.

B. If you rotate a figure in the first quadrant 90 degrees counterclockwise it will end up in the second quadrant because you will rotate it backwards and as you could see A prime is in the second quadrant.

C.If you rotate a figure in the first quadrant 180 counterclockwise it will end up in the third quadrant. SO the answer can't be it C.

D.If your rotate a figure in the first quadrant 270 counterclockwise it will end up in the fourth quadrant. So the answer can't be D.

Use the following data to compute a 98% upper confidence bound for μ1 − μ2:

m = 41
x = 42,700
s1 = 2030
n = 41
y = 36,275
s2 = 1360.

Answers

Answer:

[tex] (42700- 36275) -2.374 \sqrt{\frac{2030^2}{41} +\frac{1360^2}{41}}= 5519.071[/tex]

[tex] (42700- 36275) +2.374 \sqrt{\frac{2030^2}{41} +\frac{1360^2}{41}}=7330.929[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following info given:

[tex]n_1 = 41 , \bar X_1 =42700 , s_1 = 2030[/tex]

[tex]n_2 = 41 , \bar X_2 =36375 , s_2 = 1360[/tex]

And for this case we want a 98% confidence interval. The significance would be:

[tex] \alpha= 1-0.98=0.02[/tex]

The degrees of freedom are:

[tex] df = n_1 +n_2 -2= 41+41 -2= 80[/tex]

And the critical value for this case is:

[tex] t_{\alpha/2}= 2.374[/tex]

And the confidence interval would be given by:

[tex](\bar X_1 -\bar X_2) \pm t_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{s^2_1}{n_1}+\frac{s^2_2}{n_2}}[/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] (42700- 36275) -2.374 \sqrt{\frac{2030^2}{41} +\frac{1360^2}{41}}= 5519.071[/tex]

[tex] (42700- 36275) +2.374 \sqrt{\frac{2030^2}{41} +\frac{1360^2}{41}}=7330.929[/tex]

A car is driving at 100 kilometers per hour. How far, in meters, does it travel in 3 seconds?

Answers

Answer:

The car travels 83 1/3 meters in 3 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of car  = 100 KM/ hour

1 km= 1000m

1 hour = 3600 seconds

Lets find speed of car in Meters/second

speed of car in m/sec = 100*1000 m/3600 second

here we have taken 1000 for km and 3600 for hour

speed of car in m/sec = 100*1000 m/3600 second = 500/18 m/second

speed of car in m/sec = 250/9  m per sec

We know that

distance = speed*time

speed = 250/9  m per sec

time =3 second

distance = 250/9 * 3 meters = 250/3 meters = 83 1/3 meters.

Thus, car travels 83 1/3 meters in 3 seconds.

Consider Mary's experiment regarding whether learning of 6th graders on a math lesson is affected by background noise level. Mary has collected her data. What is the null hypothesis for her study? What is the alternative hypothesis for her study? What are the assumptions that must be met about her data before she can correctly use an independent t-test to test the hypotheses? Why? How would she see if her data met these assumptions? How much room does she have to violate any of these assumptions and still get accurate results from the t-test? Explain and support your answers

Answers

Answer:

Check the answers to the questions below

Step-by-step explanation:

a) If [tex]\mu_1[/tex] is the average learning rate of the 6th graders without background noise level and [tex]\mu_2[/tex] is the average learning rate of the 6th graders with background noise level

The Null Hypothesis is that the learning rate of the 6th graders is not affected by the background noise level.

Null hypothesis, [tex]H_0: \mu_1 = \mu_2[/tex]

b) The Alternative Hypothesis is that the learning rate of the 6th graders is affected by the background noise level.

Alternative hypothesis, [tex]H_a: \mu_1 \neq \mu_2[/tex]

c) Assumptions that must be met about the data before she can correctly use independent t-test

There must be random selection of the 6th graders

That the two groups are normally similar in their learning abilities

The division of students into the two groups should be at random

d) She has to  make these assumptions to prevent bias and inaccuracy of results. If these assumptions are not made, the outcome of the experiment may not reflect the true effect of background noise on the learning of the 6th graders.

She can still get accurate results if she include some bias in the selection to prove a particular result.

What is a right-angled triangle?

A triangle is a polygon that has three sides and three vertices. It is one of the basic figures in geometry. A right-angled triangle is a triangle having one of its angles with a measure of 90°. The slanted side of that triangle is called Hypotenuse and it is the longest side in that triangle.

If one of the angle is of 90°  then the triangle is right angled triangle.

We can see that the Hypotenuse is always the biggest side among all the sides.

Then the perpendicular side BC is the second biggest and then the base of the triangle.

Therefore, the order must be AB > BC > AC.

The orders that the sides of the triangle ABC from longest to shortest length will be AB, BC, and AC.
