What are the values for a and b?

Answer:

A) The height of the trapezoid is 6.5 centimeters.

B) We used an algebraic approach to to solve the formula for [tex]b_{1}[/tex].  [tex]b_{1} = \frac{2\cdot A}{h}-b_{2}[/tex]

C) The length of the other base of the trapezoid is 20 centimeters.

D) We can find their lengths as both have the same length and number of variable is reduced to one, from [tex]b_{1}[/tex] and [tex]b_{2}[/tex] to [tex]b[/tex]. [tex]b = \frac{A}{h}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The formula for the area of a trapezoid is:

[tex]A = \frac{1}{2}\cdot h \cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})[/tex] (Eq. 1)

Where:

[tex]h[/tex] - Height of the trapezoid, measured in centimeters.

[tex]b_{1}[/tex], [tex]b_{2}[/tex] - Lengths fo the bases, measured in centimeters.

[tex]A[/tex] - Area of the trapezoid, measured in square centimeters.

We proceed to clear the height of the trapezoid:

1) [tex]A = \frac{1}{2} \cdot h \cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})[/tex] Given.

2) [tex]A = 2^{-1}\cdot h \cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})[/tex] Definition of division.

3) [tex]2\cdot A\cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})^{-1} = (2\cdot 2^{-1})\cdot h\cdot [(b_{1}+b_{2})\cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})^{-1}][/tex] Compatibility with multiplication/Commutative and associative properties.

4) [tex]h = \frac{2\cdot A}{b_{1}+b_{2}}[/tex] Existence of multiplicative inverse/Modulative property/Definition of division/Result

If we know that [tex]A = 91\,cm^{2}[/tex], [tex]b_{1} = 16\,cm[/tex] and [tex]b_{2} = 12\,cm[/tex], then height of the trapezoid is:

[tex]h = \frac{2\cdot (91\,cm^{2})}{16\,cm+12\,cm}[/tex]

[tex]h = 6.5\,cm[/tex]

The height of the trapezoid is 6.5 centimeters.

B) We should follow this procedure to solve the formula for [tex]b_{1}[/tex]:

1) [tex]A = \frac{1}{2} \cdot h \cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})[/tex] Given.

2) [tex]A = 2^{-1}\cdot h \cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})[/tex] Definition of division.

3) [tex]2\cdot A \cdot h^{-1} = (2\cdot 2^{-1})\cdot (h\cdot h^{-1})\cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})[/tex] Compatibility with multiplication/Commutative and associative properties.

4) [tex]2\cdot A \cdot h^{-1} = b_{1}+b_{2}[/tex] Existence of multiplicative inverse/Modulative property

5) [tex]\frac{2\cdot A}{h} +(-b_{2}) = [b_{2}+(-b_{2})] +b_{1}[/tex] Definition of division/Compatibility with addition/Commutative and associative properties

6) [tex]b_{1} = \frac{2\cdot A}{h}-b_{2}[/tex] Existence of additive inverse/Definition of subtraction/Modulative property/Result.

We used an algebraic approach to to solve the formula for [tex]b_{1}[/tex].

C) We can use the result found in B) to determine the length of the remaining base of the trapezoid: ([tex]A= 215\,cm^{2}[/tex], [tex]h = 8.6\,cm[/tex] and [tex]b_{2} = 30\,cm[/tex])

[tex]b_{1} = \frac{2\cdot (215\,cm^{2})}{8.6\,cm} - 30\,cm[/tex]

[tex]b_{1} = 20\,cm[/tex]

The length of the other base of the trapezoid is 20 centimeters.

D) Yes, we can find their lengths as both have the same length and number of variable is reduced to one, from [tex]b_{1}[/tex] and [tex]b_{2}[/tex] to [tex]b[/tex]. Now we present the procedure to clear [tex]b[/tex] below:

1) [tex]A = \frac{1}{2} \cdot h \cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})[/tex] Given.

2) [tex]b_{1} = b_{2}[/tex] Given.

3) [tex]A = \frac{1}{2}\cdot h \cdot (2\cdot b)[/tex] 2) in 1)

4) [tex]A = 2^{-1}\cdot h\cdot (2\cdot b)[/tex] Definition of division.

5) [tex]A\cdot h^{-1} = (2\cdot 2^{-1})\cdot (h\cdot h^{-1})\cdot b[/tex] Commutative and associative properties/Compatibility with multiplication.

6) [tex]b = A \cdot h^{-1}[/tex] Existence of multiplicative inverse/Modulative property.

7) [tex]b = \frac{A}{h}[/tex] Definition of division/Result.

Answer:

3 : 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The biggest circle has a radius of 20 cm

So that means, its area will be,

Area = [tex]\pi r^{2}[/tex]

Area = [tex]\pi * 20^{2}[/tex]

A = [tex]\pi * 400[/tex]

=> A = 400[tex]\pi[/tex]

We do not need to solve this because it is nit required

Then, one small circle has an area of,

Area = [tex]\pi r^{2}[/tex]

Area = [tex]\pi *5^{2}[/tex]

Area = [tex]\pi *25[/tex]

=> Area = 25[tex]\pi[/tex]

As there are 4 circles in, we get that the area covered by the small squares,

=> [tex]25\pi * 4[/tex]

=> [tex]100\pi[/tex]

So, the amount shaded = 100/400 (We can omit the [tex]\pi[/tex] at this stage because we are finding out a ratio)

=> 1/4

So, there is 1 cut region and the remaining is the uncut region,

As we need to find uncut to cut, the ratio will be,

=> remaining : 1

=> 3 : 1

Answer:

x = 9°

y = 119°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

y° = 61°+58° { the exterior angle formed by producing the side of triangle is equal to two non-adjacent angle}

or, y° = 119°

therefore, y° = 119°

Now,

52°+y°+x° = 180°{the sum of angle if triangle is 180°}

or, 52°+119°+x°= 180°

or, 171°+x° = 180°

or, x° = 180°-171°

or, x° = 9°

therefore, x° = 9°

Answer:

The number of tickets sold at the gate is [tex] G = 211.25[/tex]

The number of tickets sold in advance is  [tex]  A = 311.25 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

 The cost of a tickets at the gate is [tex]a =  \$ 5[/tex]  

  The cost of a ticket in advance is  [tex]b =  \$ 3[/tex]

Let the number of ticket sold in the gate be G

Let the number of ticket sold in advance  be   A

From the question we are told that

  One hundred more tickets were sold in advance than at the gate and this can be mathematically represented as

       [tex]G  +  100 =  A[/tex]

From the question we are told that

  The total revenue from ticket sales was $1990  and this can be mathematically represented as

    [tex]5 G  +  3A  =  1990[/tex]

substituting for  A in the equation above

    [tex]5 G  +  3[G  +  100]=  1990[/tex]    

    [tex]5 G  +  3G  +  300=  1990[/tex]    

    [tex] 8G  +  300=  1990[/tex]  

    [tex] 8G  =  1690[/tex]

=>  [tex] G = 211.25[/tex]

Substituting this for G in the above equation

     [tex]5 [211.25]  +  3A  =  1990[/tex]

=>    [tex]  3A  =  1990 - 1056.25[/tex]

=>    [tex]  A = 311.25 [/tex]

Answer:

g=4 h=6

Step-by-step explanation:

3g +h = 18 (Equation 1)

2g+3h=26 (Equation 2)

From equation 1

3g+ h =18

h= 18-3g (equation 3)

substitute equation 3 into equation 2

2g+3h= 26

2g+ 3(18-3g)= 26

2g+3×18+3(-3g)=26

2g+54-9g=26

9g-2g= 54-26

7g=28

7g÷7 = 28÷7

g= 4

substitute g into equation 1

3g+h=18

3(4)+ h= 18

12+h= 18

h=18-12

h= 6

Answer:

g = 4; h = g

Step-by-step explanation:

When solving an equation with two variables, the goal is to isolate at least one of the variables so that you can plug it in to the equation to get the other. There are multiple ways to solve this so I'll just be giving one.

3g + h = 18

2g + 3h = 26

In these two equations, I notice that if I multiply the first equation by 3, the two equations will have the same values of h, so I'd be able to isolate g:

9g + 3h = 54

2g + 3h = 26

Now, subtract the second equation from the first to isolate g:

9g + 3h = 54

-2g + 3h = 26

= 7g = 28

= g = 4

Now that we have solved for g, we can plug it into either of the equations and solve for h:

2(4) + 3h = 26

= 8 + 3h = 26

= 3h = 18

= h = 6

And in conclusion, g = 4 and h = 6.

Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) What percentage of meals had less than 10 grams of fat?

(b) Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.

To find the percentage of meals with less than 10 grams of fat, count the number of meals with less than 10 grams of fat and divide by the total number of meals; multiply this figure by a hundred.

(A) Total number of meals = 550

Number of meals having less than 10 grams of fat = 77

Percentage of meals having less than 10 grams of fat = 77/550 × 100

= 0.14 × 100 = 14%

(B) Rounding the answer to the nearest tenth of a percent means approximating it to the nearest multiple of 10 that is not more than 100 (where 100 here represents a full cent or 'percent').

The multiples of 10 that are close to 14 are 10 and 20. The closest being 10, your answer becomes 10%

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the profit made by a company modeled by the function

p = -n² + 300n + 100,000

The company breaks even when p = 0

To get the number of boxes sold when the company breaks even, we will substitute p = 0 into the equation.

0 = -n² + 300n + 100,000

multiply through by -1

0 = n² - 300n - 100,000

n² - 300n - 100,000 = 0

(n² - 500n) + (200n - 100,000) = 0

n(n-500)+200(n-500) = 0

(n+200)(n-500) = 0

n+200 = 0 and n-500 = 0

n = -200 and n = 500

Since n cannot be negative

Hence n = 500

This means that the company breaks even when it sells 500 boxes

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum profit will be found in the vertex of the parabola, which is what your equation is. You could do this by completing the square, but it is way easier to just solve for h and k using the following formulas:

[tex]h=\frac{-b}{2a}[/tex] for the x coordinate of the vertex, and

[tex]k=c-\frac{b^2}{4a}[/tex] for the y coordinate of the vertex.

x will be the selling price of each widget and y will be the profit. Usually, x is the number of the items sold, but I'm going off your info here for what the vertex means in the context of this problem.

Our variables for the quadratic are as follows:

a = -10

b = 600

c = -3588. Therefore,

[tex]h=\frac{-600}{2(-10)}=30[/tex] so the cost of each widget is $30. Now for the profit:

[tex]k=-3588-(\frac{(600)^2}{4(-10)})[/tex] This one is worth the simplification step by step:

[tex]k=-3588-(\frac{360000}{-40})[/tex] and

k = -3588 - (-9000) and

k = -3588 + 9000 so

k = 5412

That means that the profit made by selling the widgets at $30 apiece is $5412.

Hence,the profit made by selling the widgets at $[tex]30[/tex] apiece is $[tex]5412[/tex].

What is the maximum profit?

Maximum profit, or profit maximisation, is the process of finding the right price for your products or services to produce the best profit.

Here given that,

A company sells widgets. The amount of profit, [tex]y[/tex], made by the company, is related to the selling price of each widget, [tex]x[/tex], by the given equation.

As the maximum profit found in the vertex of the parabola,

Here, [tex]x[/tex] will be the selling price of each widget and [tex]y[/tex] will be the profit.

The number of items sold is [tex]x[/tex].

So, the quadratic equation is:-

[tex]a = -10b = 600c = -3588.[/tex]

Therefore, so the cost of each widget is $[tex]30[/tex].

For the profit:-

[tex]k = -3588 - (-9000) andk = -3588 + 9000 sok = 5412[/tex]

Hence,the profit made by selling the widgets at $[tex]30[/tex] apiece is $[tex]5412[/tex].

Answer:

[tex]95 \frac{3}{4} \: inch \leqslant x \leqslant 96 \frac{1}{4} \: inch[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a lumber supplier sells 96 inch Pieces of oak which must be within 1/4 of an inch.

This situation can be represented by the following absolute value inequality:

[tex]|x \: - 96| \: \leqslant \: \frac{1}{4} [/tex].

The absolute value can be thought of as the size of something because length cannot be negative. The length must be no more than 1/4 away from 96.

To simplify this, pretend this is a standard equality, |x-96| = 1/4. 1/4 is the range of acceptable length, 96 is the median of the range, and x is the size of the wood.

First apply the rule |x| = y → x = [tex]\pm[/tex]y

|x-96| = 1/4

x - 96 = [tex]\pm[/tex]1/4

x = [tex]96 \pm 1/4[/tex]

(These are just the minimum, and maximum sizes)

Now with a less than or equal to, the solutions are now everything included between these two values.

Therefore:

[tex]96 - 1/4 \: \leqslant x [/tex] [tex]\leqslant \: 96 + 1/4 [/tex]

With less than inequalities, you must have the lower value on the left, and the higher value on the right.

If x represents the size of the pieces, then the acceptable lengths are represented by this following inequality:

[tex]95 \frac{3}{4} \: inch \leqslant x \leqslant 96 \frac{1}{4} \: inch[/tex]

This is interpreted as x (being the size of the oak) is greater than or equal to 95 3/4, and less than or equal to 96 1/4 in inches.

Answer:

99.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Empirical rule formula states that:

• 68% of data falls within 1 standard deviation from the mean - that means between μ - σ and μ + σ.

• 95% of data falls within 2 standard deviations from the mean - between μ – 2σ and μ + 2σ.

• 99.7% of data falls within 3 standard deviations from the mean - between μ - 3σ and μ + 3σ.

From the question, we have mean of 98.18 F and a standard deviation of 0.65 F

The approximate percentage of healthy adults with body temperatures between 96.23 F and100.13 ​F is

μ - 3σ

= 98.18 - 3(0.65)

= 98.18 - 1.95

= 96.23 F

μ + 3σ.

98.18 + 3(0.65)

= 98.18 + 1.95

= 100.13 F

Therefore, the approximate percentage of healthy adults with body temperatures between 96.23 F and 100.13 ​F which is within 3 standard deviations of the mean is 99.7%

Answer:

There is something wrong with the question because you cannot earn more interest during a year than the principal if you earn only 9% or 11%. You would have to earn more than 100%, so I will do this calculation based on $17,170 (not $171,700) earned in interest per year.

let S = amount received from short term note, and L = amount received from long term note

0.11S + 0.09L = 17170

S + L = 170000

S = 170000 - L

0.11 (170000 - L) + 0.09L = 17170

18700 - 0.11L + 0.09L = 17170

1530 - 0.02L = 0

1530 = 0.02L

L = 1530 / 0.02 = $76,500

S = 170000 - 76500 = $93,500
