Problem number 26 of the Rhind Papyrus says:
Find a quantity such that when it is added to ¼ of itself the result is 15.
The modern day equation that models this problem is x +
¼x = 15. What is the solution to the equation?
A) x = 10
B) x = 12
C) x = 15
D) x = 30
Answer:
The quantity is X= 12
The solution is 12+ ¼(12)= 15
Step by step Explanation
Problem number 26 states " "
The question above can be represented as this,
x + ¼x = 15
Here we want to find the value of x in such a way that when that value is substitute in the expresion we have 15 as our answer,But here we can perform some manipulation, by saying
4/4x + ¼x = 15 ..............eqn(1)
Even with this we can still get the above expression by saying
4/4x= x which means we're still correct.
Then the expresion eqn(1) can simplified as
5/4x = 15
If we multiply both sides by 4/5 we have
=(5/4x)×(4/5)
= 15×(4/5)
= (15/1)×(4/5)
X= 60/5
X = 12
The quantity is X= 12 and the solution is
12+ ¼(12)= 15

Mary has $311.75 to convert into yen. The currency exchange she is using charges a surcharge of 6% when converting currency. About how many more yen will Mary receive if she makes her trade on the day with the most favorable exchange rate than if she makes her trade on the day with the least favorable exchange rate?
Solution:
Of all the days of the week, the most favorable exchange rate day is Friday where the exchange rate is ¥92.7120 and the lease favorable exchange rate day is on Wednesday where the exchange rate is ¥87.5507.
If Mary converted the currency, she will receive only 94% of her money excluding 6% surcharge.
Favorable day(Friday)= ($311.75) x (92.7120/1) x 0.94
=¥27,168.788
Least Favorable day(Wednesday) =($311.75) x (87.5507) x 0.94
=¥25,656.294
The difference between most favorable day and least favourable day = ¥27,168.788 - ¥25,656.294
= ¥1,512.49

Step-by-step explanation:
A volleyball has a diameter d = 22 cm
=> Its radius r is r = d/2 = 22/2 = 11 cm
a) Its volume is calculated by:
V = (4/3) x pi x r^3
with p = ~3.14 and r = 11 cm
=> V = (4/3) x 3.14 x 11^3 = ~5572.45 (cm^3)
b) Its surface area is calculated by:
A = 4 x pi x r^2
with p = ~3.14 and r = 11 cm

Answer:
Hey there!
Here's the first question.
Let l be the length, and w be the width.
Thus, we have 5w=l+4, or 5w-4=l.
The perimeter is 76, so 2l+2w=76.
We see that l=5w-4, so substitute 5w-4 for l.
2(5w-4)+2w=76
10w-8+2w=76
12w-8=76
12w=84
w=7
Thus, the length is 5(7)-4, or 31.
Option C is correct.
Here is the second question)
Let x be the larger angle and y be the smaller angle.
Supplementary angles add to 180 degrees.
x+y=180
x=3y
Similar to the first problem change all the x's into 3y's
3y+y=180
4y=180
y=45
x=135
So the two angles are 45 and 135 and they add to 180 degrees (Choice D)

Answer:
The value of c is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
p(x) = cx³ - 15x - 68
Since it's divisible by ( x - 4) that means when the value of ( x - 4) is substituted into the polynomial it leaves a remainder of zero that's no remainder.
x - 4 = 0
x = 4
Substitute it into the above expression
That's
c(4)³ - 15(4) - 68 = 0
64c - 60 - 68 = 0
64c = 60 + 68
64c = 128
Divide both sides by 64
c = 2

A scientist measured the amounts of fertilizer given to plants, the heights to which the plants grew, and the amount of fruit the plants produced. 2 2-column tables with 5 rows. For table 1, column 1 is labeled Fertilizer (ounces) with entries 175, 192, 130, 128, 184. Column 2 is labeled Height of tree (inches) with entries 50, 52, 36, 35, 50. For table 2, column 1 is labeled Fertilizer (ounces) with entries 175, 192, 130, 128, 184. Column 2 is labeled amount of fruit produced (pounds) with entries 112, 115, 87, 85, 112. The scientist graphed the two sets of data and found that a positive correlation exists in each set. Which statement explains whether there is a relationship between the height of the tree and the amount of fruit produced. Although fertilizer is in both data sets and is positively correlated, only a weak correlation can exist between tree height and fruit yield. Although fertilizer is in both data sets and is positively correlated, it is impossible for any correlation to exist between tree height and fruit yield. Since fertilizer is in both data sets and is positively correlated to both tree height and fruit yield, it is likely that tree height and fruit yield are negatively correlated. Since fertilizer is in both data sets and is positively correlated to both tree height and fruit yield, it is like that tree height and fruit yield are also positively correlated.
Answer:
d. Since fertilizer is in both data sets and is positively correlated to both tree height and fruit yield, it is like that tree height and fruit yield are also positively correlated.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correlation refers to the relationship between two or more variables i.e how they are interrelated to each other. It can be positive, negative, perfect, etc
As we can see in the figure that in both the data sets the fertilizer contains the same values which depict that they are positively correlated with respect to the height of tree and fruit yield that derives that the height of tree and fruit yield is also positively correleated
Here positive correlation means that the two variables moving in a similar direction i.e if one variable increased so the other is also increased
Therefore the option d is correct

A recipe calls for a total of 3 and two-thirdscups flour and sugar. If the recipe calls for One-fourthcup of sugar, how much flour is needed?
Answer:
3 and 5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
To find how much flour you need, subtract how much sugar you need from how much total you need of sugar and flower. To do this, turn both numbers into improper fractions. This means 3 and 2/3 turns into 11/3 as there are 3 thirds per whole, and there are three wholes plus the 2 thirds, equaling 11/3. The 1/4 is already an improper fraction, so you can move on.
Now you just covert them to have the same denominator by multiply 11/3 by 4 on top and bottom and 1/4 by 3 on both the top and bottom to get 44/12 and 3/12. Now you just subtract 44/12-3/12 and get 41/12. Made into a mixed number that is 3 and 5/12.
The recipe will require three and five-twelfths (3 5/12) fraction cups of flour.
What are fractions?A fraction is a portion of a whole or, more broadly, any number of equal pieces.
It is written in the form p/q, read as "p by q", where p is called the numerator and q is called the denominator, and the fraction p/q represents p number of equal parts from q number of equal parts.
Fractions are of two types:
Proper fraction: Where numerator < denominator. Improper fraction: Where numerator > denominator. These fractions are written in mixed form also.How to solve the question?In the question, we are informed that a recipe calls for a total of 3 and two-thirds cups of flour and sugar.
We are asked if the recipe calls for One-fourth cup of sugar, then how much flour is needed.
We suppose the quantity of flour required to be x cups.
We know the quantity of sugar required = One-fourth cup.
This can be written as a fraction = 1/4 cup.
We know the total sugar and flour is three and two-thirds cups.
This can be written as a fraction = 3 2/3 cup = 11/3 cup.
Now, we know quantity of sugar + quantity of flour = total quantity
or, 1/4 + x = 11/3
or, x = 11/3 - 1/4 = (44 - 3)/12 = 41/12 = 3 5/12.
Therefore, the recipe will require three and five-twelfths (3 5/12) fraction cups of flour.

Answer:
x^2 - 3x + 9/4 = 5 + 9/4.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find what to add to both sides to make the equation a square, you need to do (b / 2)^2.
In this case, b = -3.
(-3 / 2)^2
= 9 / 4.
x^2 - 3x - 5 = 0
x^2 - 3x = 5
x^2 - 3x + 9/4 = 5 + 9/4.

Choice B
Choice D
Choice E
=================================================
Explanation:
Use the triangle inequality theorem. This is the idea where adding any two sides must lead to a result larger than the third side; otherwise, a triangle is not possible. I recommend cutting out strings of paper of these lengths to confirm that you can make a triangle or not.
----------------------------------
For choice A, a triangle is not possible since the first two sides add to 1+1 = 2, but this isn't larger than the third side of 2 units. All we can do really is just form a straight line and not a triangle. We can rule choice A out.
----------------------------------
Choice B is a triangle. Specifically it is a 3-4-5 right triangle that is famous with the pythagorean theorem. Note how...
3+4 = 7 is larger than 54+5 = 9 is larger than 33+5 = 8 is larger than 4so adding any two sides of this triangle leads to the sum being larger than the third remaining side. Choice B is one of the answers.
----------------------------------
Choice C is not a triangle. We have 5+5 = 10 but that isn't larger than 11. We can rule this out.
----------------------------------
Choice D is a triangle since
7+8 = 15 is larger than 127+12 = 19 is larger than 88+12 = 20 is larger than 7any two sides sum to a value larger than the third side
----------------------------------
Choice E is a triangle. We have an equilateral triangle with all sides the same length, and all angles the same value (60 degrees). This is another answer.
----------------------------------
Choice F is similar to choice C. We have the first two sides add to something smaller than the third side (4+8 = 12 is smaller than 13). We can rule this out.
Assume that the probability of a boy being born is the same as the probability of a girl being born. Find the probability that a family with three children will have the given composition. (Enter your answer to four decimal places.) At least one girl
Answer:
0.875 or 87.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
For each child, there is an equal 1 in 2 probability of having a girl or a boy.
The probability of having at least one girl out of three children includes the probability of having 1, 2 or 3 girls. It can also be written as 100% minus the probability of having all boys, therefore:
[tex]P(G\geq 1)=1-P(B=3)\\P(G\geq 1)=1-(\frac{1}{2}*\frac{1}{2}*\frac{1}{2})\\ P(G\geq 1)=0.875[/tex]
The probability of having at least one girl is 0.875 or 87.5%.
Two numbers are in the ratio 3:2. if 5 subtracted to each
the new ratio becomes 2:3 find the numbers.
> Solution
Answer:
3 and 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the 2 numbers = 3 : 2 = 3x : 2x ( x is a multiple )
When 5 is subtracted from both , that is
3x - 5 : 2x - 5 = 2 : 3
Expressing the ratio in fractional form
[tex]\frac{3x-5}{2x-5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )
3(3x - 5) = 2(2x - 5) ← distribute both sides
9x - 15 = 4x - 10 ( subtract 4x from both sides )
5x - 15 = - 10 ( add 15 to both sides )
5x = 5 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 1
Thus the 2 numbers are
3x = 3(1) = 3 and 2x = 2(1) = 2

RST is dilated about the origin,O, to creat R’S’T’. Point R is located at (3,9) and point R is located at (1.2, 3.6). Which scale factor was used to perform the dilation
Answer:
The scale factor used is 0.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]R = (3,9)[/tex]
[tex]R' = (1.2, 3.6)[/tex]
Required
Determine the scale factor of RST
The question can be solved using scale factor formula
Scale factor is calculated as thus;
[tex]Scale\ Factor = \frac{New\ Length}{Old\ Length}[/tex]
In this case; R' is the new length and R is the old length
[tex]Scale\ Factor = \frac{R'}{R}[/tex]
Substitute the values of R and R'
[tex]Scale\ Factor = \frac{(1.2,3.6)}{(3,9)}[/tex]
Factorize the denominator
[tex]Scale\ Factor = \frac{(1.2,3.6)}{2.5(1.2,3.6)}[/tex]

Determine whether the given source has the potential to create a bias in a statistical study: An article in Journal of Nutrition noted that chocolate is rich in flavonoids. The article reports that "regular consumption of foods rich in flavonoids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease." The study received funding from the candy company, and the Chocolate Manufacturers Association. Identify and explain at least one source of bias in the study describe. Then suggest how the bias might have been avoided?
Answer: The source has the potential to create bias because it was sponsored by companies that will benefit from it. This might have been avoided by stoping these companies from sponsoring the study.
Explanation:
A study is biased if its results or process is not objective, which means they have been influenced by a specific perspective or interest, and the results are inaccurate. One of the factors that causes bias is the participation of entities with economic interests in the study.
This occurs in the case described because a candy and a chocolate company sponsored the studies, and therefore results might be modified to benefit the companies. According to this, the study has the potential of being biased, and the main source is the fact it was sponsored by companies with interests.
Besides this, this can be avoided if the study does not accept sponsoring by companies with specific interests. In this way, the study will be objective, and the results will not be influenced, which means the information provided by the study would be accurate and credible.

In this activity, you will find out how many cars the baseball team needs to wash before it starts making a profit. The team spent $75 setting up the car wash, and they are charging $5 per car for a wash.
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
75/5 is 15 and in order to start making a profit than you have to wash 16 cars
hope this helps
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The idea is to find out after what number car washed will they begin to make money. That means that this is an inequality. If they charge $5 per car, and the number of cars is our uknown, then the expression for that charge is 5x. If they need to make more than what they spent on setting up, they want to make more than $75, which looks like this: > 75. Putting that together:
5x > 75 and solving for x,
x > 15.
That means that they have to wash 15 cars to just break even and starting on the 16th car on up, they will see a profit.

How can we use a graph to tell that two populations are equal?
Answer: You can see if the graphs of the two populations meet at a given point.
Step-by-step explanation:
If we have a graph of population vs time
such that y = population and x = time, two different populations will be exactly the same for a given time if we have an intersection of the two graphs. The value (x0, y0) where the graphs cross is the time = x0 and the population y0, this means that both populations have y0 individuals at the same time.
The graphs below have the same shape.What is the equation of the red graph ?
Answer:
B. f(x) = 1 - x²
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are dealing with only vertical movement, all we change is the constant. Since the red graph is up one from the reflected parent graph, we know our graph is f(x) = -x² + 1 or f(x) = 1 - x².
Answer:
B. F(x) = 1 - x^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The red graph is the blue graph translated 3 units down. It has a vertical translation of -3 units.
F(x) = G(x) - 3
F(x) = 4 - x^2 - 3
F(x) = 1 - x^2
