Min Jee wants to build a small patio. It will be 70 inches long and 49 inches wide. She can't decide whether to use brick or concrete paver stones. Each brick covers an area of 3 1/2inches by 7 1/2 inches and costs $0.59. Each paver covers an area 8.4 inches by 8.4 inches and costs $1.88. Which would be less expensive to use, and by how much?

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

firstly, let us solve for the area of the patio, from the information given the patio we have a rectangular orientation.

Area of patio

length=70in

width=49in

Area=70x49

Area=3430in^2

Area of brick

length=7.5in

width=3.5in

Area=7.5x3.5

Area=26.25in^2

Amount of brick needed =3430/26.25

Amount of brick needed =130.66

The Total cost of brick=130.66x0.59

The Total cost of brick=$77.09

Area of paver

length=8.4in

width=8.4in

Area=8.4x8.4

Area=70.56in^2

Amount of brick needed =3430/70.56

Amount of brick needed =48.61

The Total cost of brick=48.61x1.88

The Total cost of brick=$91.38

Brick would be less expensive by =91.38-77.09= $14.29

An electrician cuts a 30 ft piece of wire into 2 pieces. One piece is 2ft longer than the other. How long are the pieces?

Answers

Answer:

  piece1:   14 feet

  piece2:  16 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

piece1:   x

piece2:  x + 2

x + x + 2 = 30

2x + 2 = 30

2x = 28

x = 14

piece1:   x = 14

piece2:  x + 2 = 14 + 2 = 16

Length of short piece = x
Length of longer piece = x + 2
Given x + x + 2 = 30, 2x = 28, x=14
Pieces are 14ft and 16ft long

Anita is filling a small pool for her kids. Currently, there are 60 gallons of water in the pool and she is filling the pool at a rate of 50 gallons every 5 minutes. The pool holds 200 gallons of water.
Which equation represents the amount of minutes (m) that it will take to fill the pool?
-10m + 200 = 60
50m +200 = 60
-10m + 140 = 60
-50m +140=60

Answers

Answer:

M/140 = 50/60

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the total is 200 it will be the denominator but we already have 60 gallons so we do 200-60=140

the ratio is 50 per 60

If the perimeter of a

the area of the square?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

225

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, the formula for perimeter is simply 2 times length + 2 times width. In the case of our square, this would simply be 2x+2x (since length = width), or 4x . Therefore, if given an area, all you'd do is take the square root (to get from x2 to x , and then multiply by 4 to find perimeter.

Rasu made some chocolate milk. She added 3 tsp. Of cocoa mix with 2 cups of milk. Farah also made some chocolate milk. She added 5 tsp. Of cocoa mix to 3 cups of milk. Which mixture is more chocolatey flavored (stronger chocolate flavor)? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

The correct answer is Farah's mixture

Explanation:

In this situation, how strong chocolate flavor is in the mix depends on the ratio of ingredients as more cocoa leads to a stronger chocolate flavor.

Rasu:

Her ratio was 3 teaspoons of cocoa mix and 2 cups of milk. This can be expressed as 3:2  or [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]. Also, this can be simplified by dividing the amount of cocoa into the amount of milk 3 ÷ 2 = 1.5. This means for each cup of milk Rasu added 1.5 teaspoons of cocoa.

Farah:

The ratio was 5 teaspoons of cocoa mix and 3 cups of milk. So, the ratio is 5 : 3 or [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex], which is equal to 1.6. This implies for each cup of milk Farah added 1.6 teaspoons of cocoa. This ratio of cocoa vs milk is higher in Farah, which means he added more cocoa, and her mix would have a stronger chocolate flavor.

Answers

Answer:

1-x-2+2x = 10x-25-x

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is as follows :

1-(x+2)+2x=5(2x-5)-x

We need to solve the above equation.

Firstly opening bracket off LHS and applying distributive property at RHS.

1-x-2+2x=5(2x)-5(5)-x    (Distributive property :a(b+c) = ab+ac)

1-x-2+2x = 10x-25-x

So, the correct option is (B) i.e. 1 minus x minus 2 + 2 x = 10 x minus 25 minus x.

The midpoint of \overline{\text{AB}}
AB
is M(-5, -2)M(−5,−2). If the coordinates of AA are (-3, 4)(−3,4), what are the coordinates of BB?

Answers

Answer:

The coordinates of b are: B=(-7,-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the coordinates of the midpoint of [tex]\overline{\text{AB}}[/tex] as M=(-5,-2).

We are also given the coordinates of A=(-3,4). The question requires us to calculate the coordinates of the other endpoint B.

Let (xb,yb) the coordinates of B. The coordinates of the midpoint can be calculated as follows:

[tex]\displaystyle x_m=\frac{x_a+x_b}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle y_m=\frac{y_a+y_b}{2}[/tex]

We know xa=-3 and xm=-5. Solve the first equation for xb:

[tex]2x_m=x_a+x_b\Rightarrow x_b=2x_m-x_a[/tex]

Substituting:

[tex]x_b=2\cdot (-5)-(-3)=-10+3[/tex]

[tex]x_b=-7[/tex]

We can solve the second equation for xb and get:

[tex]y_b=2y_m-y_a[/tex]

Since ya=4 and ym=-2, then:

[tex]y_b=2\cdot (-2)-(4)=-4-4[/tex]

[tex]y_b=-8[/tex]

Thus, the coordinates of b are: B=(-7,-8)

A state lottery randomly chooses 8 balls numbered from 1 through 37 without replacement. You choose 8 numbers and purchase a lottery ticket. The random variable represents the number of matches on your ticket to the numbers drawn in the lottery. Determine whether this experiment is binomial. If​ so, identify a​ success, specify the values​ n, p, and q and list the possible values of the random variable x.

Answers

Answer: No, the experiment is not binomial

Step-by-step explanation:

From the formula for a binomial distribution :

nCx * p^k * q^(n - x)

n = number of trials (fixed)

x = number of success on trial

p = probability of success (which is the same for each trial).

q = (1 - p) = probability of failure (same for each trial)

Binomial experiment have binary outcome ; Either Success or Failure

The experiment described above :

Number of trials is satisfied (8 picks)

Binary outcome (matches on ticket or match does not exist).

What is Linear function?

A linear function in mathematics is one that has either one or two variables and no exponents. It is a function with a straight line as its graph.

Given, Sydney is a salesperson who sells computers at an electronics store. She makes a base pay amount each day and then is paid a commission as a percentage of the total dollar amount the company makes from her sales that day.

Let the equation of line y = kx + b

Where b is 100

Since the given line passes through (0, 100) and (4000,200)

since For a line k = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

Thus, k = (200 -100)/(4000-0)

k = 1/40

Thus,

y = 1/40x + 100

Therefore, an equation that represents P as a function of X is y = 1/40x + 100.
