worms, she gives 4/9 to the 2nd graders. Of the remaining worms, she
gives 37/50 to the 3rd graders. Ms. Mitchell then distributes the
remaining worms evenly between the 4th graders. If there are 13 4th
graders, how many worms does each 4th grader get?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:  4

================================================

Explanation:

We'll step through the grade levels in increasing order

The teacher starts with 700 sour worms total. Then 2/7 of that is given to the Kindergartners

2/7 of 700 = (2/7)*700 = 200

So Ms. Mitchell handed out 200 worms to the Kindergartners.

This means she has 700-200 = 500 left over.

-----------------

Now onto the 1st graders.

The teacher hands out 7/25 of the remaining total (500) to the first graders

7/25 of 500 = (7/25)*500 = 140

She hands out 140 worms to the first graders and has 500-140 = 360 worms left.

-------------------

Now the 2nd graders

"Of the remaining worms, she gives 4/9 to the 2nd graders" tells us that

4/9 of 360 = (4/9)*360 = 160 worms are given to the second graders

This leaves 360-160 = 200 worms left

-------------------

Now the 3rd graders

37/50 of 200 = (37/50)*200 = 148

The teacher hands out 148 worms to the 3rd graders

There are 200 - 148 = 52 worms left.

--------------------

Finally, we're at the 4th graders

Each 4th grader gets the same number of worms (aka the amount is distributed equally). Since there are 52 worms left, and 13 fourth graders, this means each fourth grader gets 52/13 = 4 worms. It's a slightly interesting coincidence that the number '4' matches up with the grade level. It's possible your teacher adjusted the numbers to make this an intentional goal.

--------------------

To recap everything, we found these worm counts for each grade level

Kindergarten = 200 wormsFirst graders = 140 wormsSecond graders = 160 wormsThird Graders = 148 wormsFourth graders = 52 worms

Note how those values add back up to 700, ie 200+140+160+148+52 = 700. This helps confirm the answer.

Then once we see that 52 worms are left, each fourth grader gets 52/13 = 4 worms a piece.

So this is why the final answer is 4.

Some time ago , Keith's height and his nephew's height were at a ratio of 15:7. Then, Keiths height increased by 16% and his nephew,s height doubled. Keith is now 34 cm taller than his nephew, what is their total current height

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of Keith's height and his nephew's height is 15:7. Let keith height be x cm and his nephews height be y cm.

[tex]\frac{x}{y}=\frac{15}{7} \\x=\frac{15}{7}y[/tex]

Keiths height increased by 16% , therefore Keith new height is (100% + 16%) × x = 1.16x

The nephew height is doubled, therefore his new height is 2y.

Given that Keith is now 34 cm taller than his nephew

1.16x = 2y + 34

but x = (15/7)y

[tex]1.16(\frac{15}{7} )y=2y+34\\\\\frac{87}{35} y=2y+34\\\\\frac{87}{35} y-2y=34\\\\\frac{17}{35}y=34\\ \\y=\frac{34*35}{17}\\ \\y=70\ cm[/tex]

The nephews new height = 2y = 2(70) = 140 cm

Keith new height = 2y + 34 = 140 + 34 = 174 cm

Their total current height = 140 cm + 174 cm = 314 cm

Answer:

The total distance around the running track is 194.3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in calculating the distance around the running track.

We have two semi-circles of diameter 30m and two parallel straight lines of length 50m

Firstly let’s add the parallel straight lines, we have 50 + 50 = 100 m

Now these two semicircles when joined together gives a full circle. And since they are of same diameter, by calculating the circumference of the full circle, we can have the length around the two bends

Mathematically, that would be; πd

The circumference is thus; 22/7 * 30 = 94.29 m

Thus, the length of the running track will be 100 + 94.3m = 194.3m

If sin∅+cos∅ = 1 , find sin∅.cos∅.​

Answers

Answer:  0

=============================================

Explanation:

The original equation is in the form a+b = 1, where

a = sin(theta)

b = cos(theta)

Square both sides of a+b = 1 to get

(a+b)^2 = 1^2

a^2+2ab+b^2 = 1

(a^2+b^2)+2ab = 1

From here notice that a^2+b^2 is sin^2+cos^2 = 1, which is the pythagorean trig identity. So we go from (a^2+b^2)+2ab = 1 to 1+2ab = 1 to 2ab = 0 to ab = 0

Therefore,

sin(theta)*cos(theta) = 0

Answer:

sin ∅ cos ∅ = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

(sin∅+cos∅)^2 = 1^2 = 1

(sin∅+cos∅)^2  = sin^2∅ + cos^2∅ + 2sin ∅ cos ∅ = 1

But  sin^2∅ + cos^2∅ = 1, so:  

2sin ∅ cos ∅ + 1 = 1

2 sin ∅ cos ∅ = 1 - 1 = 0

sin ∅ cos ∅ = 0.

Answers

Answer:

The amount of balls on each side would stay the same. The amount of balls would stay the same as long as both sides are throwing the same number of balls at the same time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation for east side: 20 (balls) -1 (thrown over to west) + 1 (thrown over from west) = 20 balls

Equation for west side: 40 (balls) -1 (thrown over to east side) +1 (thrown over by east side) = 40 balls

H = 7 mm

V = ¹/₃•B•H

V = ¹/₃•12•7 = 4•7 = 28 mm³

Answer:

V=28 mm³

Step-by-step explanation:

V= volume of the pyramide

G = square of the triangle

h = high of the pyramide

G=1/2 *a*b

G = 1/2 * 6 * 4

G = 12

Problem 2) Runner B has the smallest period

Problem 3) The sound propagates faster via a solid than via air, then the sound of the train will arrive faster via the rails.

Step-by-step explanation:

The frequency of the football player is 160 heartbeats per minute.

The period is (using the equation you showed above):

[tex]Period = \frac{1}{frequency} = \frac{1}{160} \,minutes= 0.00625\,\,minutes = 0.375\,\,seconds[/tex]

second problem:

Runner A does 200 loops in 60 minutes so his frequency is:

[tex]\frac{200}{60} = \frac{10}{3} \approx 3.33[/tex]   loops per minute

then the period is: 0.3 minutes (does one loop in 0.3 minutes)

the other runner does 200 loops in 65 minutes, so his frequency is:

[tex]\frac{200}{65} = \frac{40}{13} \approx 3.08[/tex]   loops per minute

then the period is:

[tex]\frac{13}{40} =0.325\,\,\,minutes[/tex]

Therefore runner B has the smaller period

a positive number is 7 times another number if 3 is added to both the numbers then one of the new number becomes 5 by 2 times the other new number what are the numbers​

Answers

Answer:

7 and 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be a and b.

A positive number is 7 times another number:

a = 7b

If 3 is added to both the numbers then one of the new number becomes 5 by 2 times the other new number:

a+3 = 5/2 × (b +3)

To solve this we substitute a with 7b in the second equation:

7b + 3 = 5/2 × (b +3)               ⇒ multiplying both sides by 214b + 6 = 5b + 15                    ⇒ collecting like terms14b - 5b = 15 - 69b = 9b = 1                                        ⇒ solved for b

Then, finding a:

a= 7ba=7*1a= 7                                        ⇒ solved for a

So the numbers are 7 and 1

Answer:

-2 <= x <= 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

it is the same as for equations.

the solution for a square equation is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

our parameters here are

a = 3

b = 5

c = -2

so,

x = (-5 ± sqrt(25 - -24))/6 = (-5 ± sqrt(49))/6 = (-5 ± 7)/6

x1 = (-5 + 7)/6 = 2/6 = 1/3

x2 = (-5 - 7)/6 = -12/6 = -2

since we are looking for smaller or equal, points of 0 will be part of the solution.

now we need to check each side of these points on the x-axis, if they are true or not to the inequality.

left of -2 : let's pick -3

3×(-3)² + 5×-3 -2 = 3×9 - 15 - 2 = 27 - 15 -2 = 10

this is NOT <= 0, so this interval does not fit.

similar, right of 1/3 : let's pick 1

3×1² + 5×1 - 2 = 3 + 5 - 2 = 6

this is NOT <= 0, so this interval does not fit either (as expected, as normally either both sides fit, or both fail).

lastly, in the middle between -2 and 1/3 : let's pick 0

3×0² + 5×0 - 2 = -2

this IS <= 0, so the interval between -2 and 1/3 fits.

Nandini makes 'halwa' one evening and divides it into four equal portions for her family of four. However, just as they are about to eat it, an unexpected guest arrives and Nandini has to now re-divide the halwa into five equal portions. By what percentage has each family member's share reduced due to this? A. 5% B. 10% C. 20% D. 25%

Answers

Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total 'halwa' made = 1

Divided into four equal portion = 1/4

Arrival of an unexpected guest = 1/5

By what percentage has each family member's share been reduced:

Change in the sharing proportion:

Previous share ratio - new sharing ratio

(1/4 - 1/5) = (5 - 4) / 20 = 1/20

That means total reduction in the sharing = 1/ 20

Since each member comes contributed equally:

Reduction in each family member's share ;

(1 / 20) ÷ 4

(1 / 20) * 1/4 = 1/ 80

Percentage reduction:

(Reduction / original share) * 100%

[(1/80) ÷ (1/4)] * 100

(1/80 * 4/1) * 100%

(1/20) * 100%

= 5%

Reduction in each family members share = 5%
