Rebecca went swimming yesterday. After a while she had covered one fifth of her intended distance. After swimming six more lengths of the pool, she had covered one quarter of her intended distance. How many lengths of the pool did she intend to complete?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

E. 120

Step-by-step explanation:

A. 40

B. 72

C. 80

D. 100

E. 120

Let

x = the intended distance

y = length of the pool

She covers one fifth of her intended distance

Distance covered = 1/5 of x

= x/5

After swimming six more lengths of the pool she had covered one quarter of her intended distance

x/5 + 6y = 1/4 of x

x/5 + 6y = x/4

Collect like terms

6y = x/4 - x/5

6y = 5x - 4x/20

6y = x/20

x = 20 * 6y

= 120y

x = 120y

The intended distance Rebecca wants to cover = 120

A poll conducted the day before the student- body presidential election at a midwestern university showed that 53.9 percent favored Mario, the rest favoring Yin Ling. The margin of error was 4.2 percentage points. Should Yin Ling have conceded the election?

Answers

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval of the percentage of people that favored Mario = number of votes favoring Mario ± Margin of error

The confidence interval = 53.9% ± 4.2% = (49.7%, 58.1%)

This means that between 49.7% to 58.1% of the people would have voted for Mario.

Hence Yin Ling would not have won the election, since there is a probability that 50% would have voted for Mario

Find three consecutive even integers such that their sum decreased by 34 is equal to the first integer. Find the first integer.

Answers

Answer:

The first number: 14

The second number: 16

The third number: 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations

Let's assume:

x=the first even number.

x+2=the second even number

x+4=the third even number

The sum of all three is: x + x + 2 + x + 4

The condition states the sum decreased by 34 equals the first number:

x + x + 2 + x + 4 - 34 = x

Moving all the variables to the left side and the numbers to the right side:

x + x + 2 + x + 4 - 34 - x = 34 - 2 - 4

Simplifying:

2x =  28

Solving:

x = 28 / 2 = 14

The first number: 14

The second number: 16

The third number: 18

Miguel completed the division problem below. What is Miguel's error? A.He included a 5 in the quotient, which does not belong. B.He multiplied the divisor by 10 and the dividend by 100. C.He subtracted 208 from 234 incorrectly. D.He multiplied the divisor by 100 and the dividend by 10.

Answers

The image of the division problem is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

D: He multiplied the divisor by 100 and the dividend by 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image, we can see from the initial values, they are trying to divide 0.52 by 754.

In Mathematics, it means that 0.52 is the divisor while 754 is the dividend.

Now, the next step sees 0.52 changed to 52 while 754 changes to 7540.

Now, 0.52 to 52 means 0.52 was multiplied by 100.

This means that 754 should also be multiplied by 100 to give 75400 in order to retain the original answer that would have been gotten if we had divided 0.52 by 754.

Yet they used 7540.

Thus,the error is that he multiplied the divisor by 100 while he multiplied the dividend by 10.

Answer :

D - He multiplied the divisor by 100 and the dividend by 10.

Answer:

y = -1/4x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

y = -1/4x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can tell that the line passes trough the point (0, 2), so the y-intercept is 2.

Let's calculate the slope by using rise over run. We see for every one unit down, it goes 4 units to the right. It also goes downward, so the slope is negative. So the slope is -1/4. Put it together...

y = -1/4x + 2

By the exterior angle theorem,

[tex]11x+32x=172\\\\43x=172\\\\x=\boxed{4}[/tex]

The angle o represents the phase shift, determined by the initial conditions of the experiment or the position of the weight at t = 0. If the weight is at its maximum positive position (weight is above equilibrium) at t = 0, then o = 0. If the weight is at its maximum negative position (spring is stretched and weight is below equilibrium) at t = 0, then o = pi. If the weight is traveling in the negative direction and passing through equilibrium at t = 0, then o = pi/2. In the response box, describe the initial condition of our experiment; specifically, describe the position of the weight and the direction in which it was traveling.
