a) The first mistake that Fatima made was in the first step.

b) She incorrectly changed the place value of 0.02 in the subtraction operation.

c) Based on the correct subtraction operation and place value in step one, Fatima has 0.395 kilograms of rose petals left.

What is a place value?

The place value shows the position of a digit in a number.

The right place values are essential for correct mathematical operations.

The quantity of rose petals that Fatima bought initially = 0.454 kilograms

The quantity of rose petals used for making rose water = 0.02 kilograms

The remaining quantity of rose petals = 0.434 (0.454 - 0.02)

The additional quantity of rose petals Fatima bought = 0.056

The quantity of rose petals used for making the second rose water = 0.095

The quantity of rose petals left = 0.395 (0.434 + 0.056 - 0.095)

The inequalities:

y ≤ -1 and x ≥ 1

To graph y ≤ -1, we first draw the horizontal line y = -1.

Since we want y to be less than or equal to -1, we shade the area below the line.

To graph x ≥ 1, we draw the vertical line x = 1.

Since we want x to be greater than or equal to 1, we shade the area to the right of the line.

The shaded regions of both inequalities overlap in the area to the right of x = 1 and below y = -1.

What is the end behavior of f(x)?​

Answers

The end behavior of the quadratic function is f(x) = (x + 5)² - 2

We have the table of values which represents a quadratic function f(x).

A quadratic equation is represented as;

f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

Where, Vertex = (h, k)

If we plot the graph according to the given table, the vertex will be,

(h, k) = (-5, -2)

Substitute, (h, k) = (-5, -2) in f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

we have, f(x) = a(x + 5)² - 2

Also, the graph, we have the point (0, 23)

This means that

a(0 + 5)² - 2 = 23

25a = 25

a = 1

Substitute a = 1 in f(x) = a(x + 5)² - 2

f(x) = (x + 5)² - 2

Hence, the equation is polynomial f(x) = (x + 5)² - 2

Answer:

Answer is -2/21r + (-19)

Step-by-step explanation:

(-1/7r - 9 -2/3r) - (-5/7r + 10)

= -1/7r - 9 - 2/3r + 5/7r - 10  (distributing the negative sign)

= (-1/7r + 5/7r) + (-2/3r) - 9 - 10  (grouping the like terms)

= 4/7r - 2/3r - 19  (combining the like terms)

= (12r - 14r)/21r - 38r/21r  (getting a common denominator)

Answers

Answer:

The expression -7x^0 cannot be a part of a rational expression because any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1. Therefore, -7x^0 is equal to -7(1) = -7, which is a constant and not a variable expression. In a rational expression, the numerator and denominator should be polynomial expressions with variables.

to Find the Surface Area of a Composite Figure:

The surface area of the composite figure is the area surrounding the faces of the solid as a whole. Therefore, we have:

Surface area (SA) = Surface area of the square prism + surface area of the square pyramid - 2(area of base)

Area of base = area of square = 6 * 6 = 36 sq. cm.

Surface area of the square prism = 2a² + 4ah

a = 6 cm

h = 4 cm

Plug in the values:

Surface area of the square prism = 2(6²) + 4*6*4

= 72 + 96

= 168 sq. cm.

Surface area of the square pyramid = 2bs + b²

b = side length = 6 cm

s = slant height = √(8² + 3²) = 8.5 cm

Plug in the values:

Surface area of the square pyramid = 2 * 6 * 8.5 + 6² = 138 sq. cm.

Answers

The probability of randomly choosing two boys is 0.174

How to find the probability that she choose two boys?

If the selection is done at random, then the probability of choosing a boy is equal to the quotient between the number of boys and the total number of people.

There are 12 boys and 16 + 12 = 28 students in total, then the probability is:

P = 12/28

Now, for the second selection the probability is computed in the same way, but now there are 11 boys and 27 students (one was already choosen), then:

OC=480(0.151)²
(1 -0.151) (1 - 0.151)

Answers

The correct equation to represent how many grams of the compound will remain after 2 hours is:

OC = 480(1 - 0.151)^2

Explanation:

The initial mass of the compound is given as 480 grams.
The decay rate per hour is 15.1%, which means 100% - 15.1% = 84.9% of the compound remains after each hour.
Since we want to calculate the remaining mass after 2 hours, we need to apply the decay rate twice.
The equation (1 - 0.151)^2 represents applying the decay rate twice, resulting in the remaining fraction of the compound after 2 hours.
Multiplying this remaining fraction by the initial mass (480 grams) gives us the grams of the compound that will remain after 2 hours.

Therefore, the correct equation is:
OC = 480(1 - 0.151)^2

Match each absolute value inequality on the left side with its solution set on the right

Answers

The inequality 2|x - 3| + 6 > 10 has the solution set:

x < 1 or x > 5

To solve the inequality 2|x - 3| + 6 > 10, we need to isolate the absolute value expression |x - 3|.

We can do this by subtracting 6 from both sides of the inequality:

2|x - 3| > 4

Then we can divide both sides by 2:

|x - 3| > 2

Now we need to consider two cases, one where x - 3 is positive, and another where it is negative:

When x - 3 is positive, the inequality |x - 3| > 2 becomes:

x - 3 > 2

Solving for x gives:

x > 5

When x - 3 is negative, the inequality |x - 3| > 2 becomes:

If you have ampuoles comtaining 20% acetylcysteine, what volume must be drawn up to make the infusion?

please can someone help me with how to work this out? :(

Answers

For the 4-hour infusion, 1500ml of the 20% acetylcysteine solution must be made up and combined with 500ml of glucose.

To calculate the volume of acetylcysteine that needs to be added to the glucose, we can use the following formula:

The volume of acetylcysteine (in ml) = (Total amount of acetylcysteine needed in mg / Concentration of acetylcysteine in mg/ml) x 100

We have been asked to add 3000mg of acetylcysteine to 500 ml of glucose. If the concentration of the ampoule containing acetylcysteine is 20%, this means that there are 20g of acetylcysteine in 100 ml of solution, or 200mg/ml.

Using the formula above, we can calculate the volume of acetylcysteine that needs to be added as follows:

Volume of acetylcysteine = (3000mg / 200mg/ml) x 100 = 1500ml

Therefore, 1500ml of the 20% acetylcysteine solution needs to be drawn up and added to the 500ml of glucose to make the 4-hour infusion.

A. Diversity can be evaluated based on the portfolio in question. A portfolio that encompasses investments in a variety of sectors, asset classes, and regions would exhibit a high level of diversity.

B. By analyzing the types of assets present in the portfolio, it is possible to determine where potential risks may originate.

An investment portfolio that primarily consists of stocks or other assets with high risks would be considered as an aggressive portfolio. A portfolio that primarily consists of bonds or low-risk assets is considered to be a conservative one.

A balance between the two would be a moderate portfolio.

C. The individual carrying a particular portfolio can be characterized based on their risk tolerance, financial goals, and stage of life.

For example, a young professional with a high-risk tolerance might carry an aggressive portfolio to maximize growth, while a retired individual might have a conservative portfolio to preserve their capital.

Answers

The value of given expression is 57.

We are given that;

|—15u| + |3v| + 3

u=3, v = 3

Now,

To evaluate the expression, you need to substitute the values of u and v and simplify. The absolute value of a number is the distance from zero on the number line, so it is always positive or zero. You can write your solution as:

|—15u| + |3v| + 3 = |—15(3)| + |3(3)| + 3 = |—45| + |9| + 3 = 45 + 9 + 3 = 57

Therefore, by the given expression the answer will be 57.

A box contains 12 transistors, 5 of which are defective. If 5 are selected at random, find the probability of the statements below.
a. All are defective
b. None are defective

Answers

A) all are defective

Answer:

a. The probability that all 5 selected transistors are defective is 0.0024 or 0.24%.

To calculate this probability, we use the formula for the probability of the intersection of independent events:

P(all 5 defective) = P(defective) x P(defective) x P(defective) x P(defective) x P(defective)

where P(defective) = 5/12 for each transistor.

Plugging in the values, we get:

P(all 5 defective) = (5/12) x (5/12) x (5/12) x (5/12) x (5/12) = 0.0024

b. The probability that none of the selected transistors are defective is 0.163 or 16.3%.

To calculate this probability, we use the complement rule:

P(none defective) = 1 - P(at least one defective)

To calculate P(at least one defective), we can use the complement rule again:

P(at least one defective) = 1 - P(none defective)

So, we need to find P(none defective) first:

P(none defective) = P(not defective) x P(not defective) x P(not defective) x P(not defective) x P(not defective)

where P(not defective) = 7/12 for each transistor.

Plugging in the values, we get:

P(none defective) = (7/12) x (7/12) x (7/12) x (7/12) x (7/12) = 0.163

Then, we can find P(at least one defective):

P(at least one defective) = 1 - P(none defective) = 1 - 0.163 = 0.837

Finally, we can find P(none are defective) using the complement rule:

P(none defective) = 1 - P(at least one defective) = 1 - 0.837 = 0.163.

7. The sum of nine consecutive whole numbers is 99. What could be the largest of these whole numbers .

Answers

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to be very honest with you; one of my kids had this problem recently and I remember the answer is 15.

99=15+14+13+12+11+10+9+8+7

So the largest number is 15.

The way we solved it:

Call the 1st number x. Each number after x is x+(a number) all the way up to x+8 (the 9th number in the series of 9 consecutive whole numbers):

  x, x + 1, x + 2, x + 3, x + 4, x + 5, x + 6, x + 7 and x + 8

Add up those consecutive numbers (I know, it's kind of messy):

             x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 + x + 4 + x + 5 + x + 6 + x + 7 + x + 8


Combine the like terms:

           9x + 36 = 99

Subtract 36 from both sides:

            9x = 63

Divide by 9 on both sides:

            x = 7

So the largest number will be: x + 8

            7+8 = 15

And then check that it works:

99=15+14+13+12+11+10+9+8+7

simplify the following expression (x/4)+(1/8)/(x^2/4)

Answers

After simplification,

(2x + 1)/2(x^2)

Given,

(x/4)+(1/8)/(x^2/4)

Simplifying,

Firstly take LCM of 4 and 8,

LCM of 4 and 8 will be 8.

Then,

(2x +1) /(8) / x^2 /4

Further,

Take reciprocal of the denominator,

(2x +1) /(8) (4/x^2)

(2x + 1)/2(x^2)

Hence after simplification the expression becomes (2x + 1)/2(x^2).

The first term in an arithmetic series is 2, while the sum of the first 8 terms of the series is 1472. What is the 8th term in the series?

A) 314
B) 418
C) 262
D) 366

Answers

To solve this problem, we'll need to use the formula for the sum of an arithmetic series:

S_n = n/2(2a + (n-1)d)

where S_n is the sum of the first n terms of the series, a is the first term, and d is the common difference between terms.

We're given that a = 2 and n = 8, and we know that the sum of the first 8 terms is 1472. So we can plug in these values and solve for d:

1472 = 8/2(2(2) + (8-1)d)
1472 = 4(4 + 7d)
1472 = 16 + 28d
1456 = 28d
d = 52

Now that we know the common difference is 52, we can use the formula for the nth term of an arithmetic series to find the 8th term:

a_8 = a + (n-1)d
a_8 = 2 + (8-1)52
a_8 = 2 + 364
a_8 = 366

So the 8th term in the series is D) 366.

12. Stretch Your Thinking Write and solve a story problem about gathering three kinds of vegetables. Use 10-partners.

Answers

Cameron and Rebecca are organizing a lunch for their friends. Within the dishes to be served, they will prepare a tomato, carrot and broccoli salad. The number of tomatoes and carrots are 10-partners and the total amount of vegetables is 12. If we increase the number of broccoli by three and decrease the number of tomatoes by two, the amount of tomatoes and broccoli will also be 10-partners. What is the number of tomatoes, carrots and broccoli bought by Cameron and Rebecca?

Cameron and Rebecca purchased 7 tomatoes, 3 carrots and 2 broccoli.

Number of tomatoes = x

Number of carrots = 10 - x

Number of broccoli = y

System of Equations:

x + 10 - x + y = 12

y = 12 - 10

y = 2

x - 2 + y + 3 = 10 (If we increase the number of broccoli by three and decrease the number of tomatoes by two, the amount of tomatoes and broccoli will also be 10-partners)

x + 1 + y = 10

x + y = 9

y = 9 - x

Substitution of y:

x + 10 - x + y = 12

x + 10 - x + 9 - x = 12

-x + 19 = 12

-x = 12 - 19

x = 7 ⇒ 10 - x = 3

Cameron and Rebecca purchased 7 tomatoes, 3 carrots and 2 broccoli.
