Answer:
Ben traveled 93.75% of his usual distance.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Ben travels a regular distance of 80 miles to reach office, and today he used an alternative route that covered a distance of only 75 miles, to determine what is the decrease in the percentage of the distance traveled by Ben, the following calculation must be done:
80 = 100
75 = X
75 x 100/80 = X
93.75 = X
Therefore, Ben traveled 93.75% of his usual distance.

In my town, it's rainy one third of the days. Given that it is rainy, there will be heavy traffic with probability 1/2, and given that it is not rainy, there will be heavy traffic with probability 1/4. If it's rainy and there is heavy traffic, I arrive late for work with probability 1/2. On the other hand, the probability of being late is reduced to 1/8 if it is not rainy and there is no heavy traffic. In other situations (rainy and no traffic, not rainy and traffic) the probability of being late is 0.25. You pick a random day.
a. What is the probability that it’s not raining and there is heavy traffic and I am not late?
b. What is the probability that I am late?
c. Given that I arrived late at work, what is the probability that it rained that day?
Answer:
a) 0.125 = 12.5% probability that it’s not raining and there is heavy traffic and I am not late.
b) 0.2292 = 22.92% probability that I am late.
c) 0.5454 = 54.54% probability that it rained that day.
Step-by-step explanation:
Conditional Probability
We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
In which
P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.
P(A) is the probability of A happening.
Question a:
2/3 probability of not raining.
If not raining, 1/4 probability of heavy traffic.
1 - 0.25 = 0.75 = 3/4 probability of not late.
So
[tex]p = \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{2}{16} = 0.125[/tex]
0.125 = 12.5% probability that it’s not raining and there is heavy traffic and I am not late.
b. What is the probability that I am late?
0.5 of (1/3)*(1/2) = 1/6(rainy and heavy traffic).
0.25 of (1/3)*(1/2) = 1/6(rainy and no traffic).
1/8 = 0.125 of (2/3)*(3/4) = 1/2(not rainy and no traffic).
0.25 of (2/3)*(1/4) = 1/6(not rainy and traffic). So
[tex]P(A) = 0.5\frac{1}{6} + 0.25\frac{1}{6} + 0.125\frac{3}{6} + 0.25\frac{1}{6} = \frac{0.5 + 0.25 + 3*0.125 + 0.25}{6} = 0.2292[/tex]
0.2292 = 22.92% probability that I am late.
c. Given that I arrived late at work, what is the probability that it rained that day?
Event A: Late
Event B: Rained
0.2292 = 22.92% probability that I am late.
This means that [tex]P(A) = 0.2292[/tex]
Probability of late and rain:
0.5 of 1/6(rain and heavy traffic).
0.25 of 1/6(rain and no traffic). So
[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.5\frac{1}{6} + 0.25\frac{1}{6} = \frac{0.5 + 0.25}{6} = \frac{0.75}{6} = 0.125[/tex]
Probability:
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.125}{0.2292} = 0.5454[/tex]
0.5454 = 54.54% probability that it rained that day.
If 2x - 5y – 7 = 0 is perpendicular to the line ax - y - 3 = 0 what is the value of a ?
A) a =2/3
B) a =5/2
C) a = -2/3
D) a = -5/2
Answer:
D) a = - 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
2x -5y - 7 = 0
5y = 2x - 7
y = 2/5 x - 7
the slope of this line is therefore 2/5 (factor of x).
the perpendicular slope is then (exchange y and x and flip the sign) -5/2, which is then a and the factor of x.

which polygon will NOT tessellate a plane?
Answer:
pentagons
Step-by-step explanation:
In fact, there are pentagons which do not tessellate the plane. The house pentagon has two right angles. Because those two angles sum to 180° they can fit along a line, and the other three angles sum to 360° (= 540° - 180°) and fit around a vertex.
Answer:
The Regular Pentagon.

Complete the equation of this circle:
pleaseee helpp
Answer:
(x – 3)^2+ (y – 2)^2 = r^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The co-ordinates of the center=(3,2)
The formula for the equation of a circle is (x – h)^2+ (y – k)^2 = r^2,
(h, k) represents the coordinates of the center of the circle, and r represents the radius of the circle.
Therefore, (x – h)^2+ (y – k)^2 = r^2
=(x – 3)^2+ (y – 2)^2 = r^2
You can find r^2the equation.
On the first day of a two-day meeting, 10 coffees and 10 doughnuts were purchased for a total of $20.00. Since nobody drank the coffee and all the doughnuts were eaten, the next day only 2 coffees and 14 doughnuts were purchased for a total of $13.00. How much did each coffee and each doughnut cost?
Answer:
1.25 dollars- the value of each coffee
0.75 dollars- the value of each doughnut
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that value of one coffee is x dollars, when one doughnut costs y dollars. The value o 10 coffee is 10x, when 10 doughnuts cost 10y. The sum is 10x+10y and it is 20.
10x+10y= 20 (we can divide each part by 10)
x+y=2
2coffee cost 2x, 14 doughnuts cost 14y
2x+14y=13 (it can be divided by two)
x+7y=6.5
We have the system of equations x+y=2, x+7y=6.5
Subtract the first equation from the second one (the left side of the first equation from the left side
x+7y - (x+y)= 6.5-2
6y=4.5
y=4.5/6= 3/4 = 0.75 dollars- the value of each doughnut
x=2-0.75=1.25 dollars- the value of each coffee

O b) "I will get to work before 9 A.M. every day this month." Oc) "I will get to work on time." "I will get to work on or before 9 A.M. at least 20 workdays per month by O d) setting an alarm the night before and not hitting the snooze button."
The best option for Kelsie to create a SMART goal is b) "I will get to work before 9 A.M. every day this month."
Option B captures the essence of a smart goal. A smart goal has the following characteristics: specific, measurable, achievable or attainable, realistic or relevant, and time-bound.
1. Specific: A smart goal like option B is well-defined, clear, and unambiguous.
2. Measurable: A smart goal sets specific criteria that measure Kelsie's progress toward the accomplishment of her goal. For example, any day that she does not get to work before 9 a.m. she knows that she does not achieve her work arrival goal for that day.
3. Achievable: Kelsie's goal becomes attainable and possible to achieve because there is a set time for her to arrive at her work.
4. Realistic: Kelsie's goal, which she set for this month, is within her reach. It is realistic, and relevant to her purpose.
5. Time-bound: Kelsie has set a clearly defined timeline, which creates the needed urgency for her to realize it. It includes a starting date and a target date, which will encourage her to realize it.
Thus, option B is the correct option that meets the criteria of a SMART goal unlike options A, C, and D, which are ambiguous, unrealistic, and not time-bound.

you just have to expand the trig. functions into their corresponding values and then finish them off.
Consider this equation. √x - 1 - 5 = x - 8 The equation has(two valid solutions, one valid solution) and(one extraneous solution, no extraneous solutions) A valid solution for x is(0, 4, 2, 5)
The equation has 2 valid solutions; no extraneous solutions
The given equation is:
[tex]\sqrt{x - 1} - 5= x - 8[/tex]
First, we determine the solutions
[tex]\sqrt{x - 1} - 5= x - 8[/tex]
Add 5 to both sides
[tex]\sqrt{x - 1} = x - 8 + 5[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{x - 1} = x - 3[/tex]
Square both sides
[tex]x - 1 = (x - 3)^2[/tex]
Expand
[tex]x - 1 = x^2- 3x - 3x + 9[/tex]
[tex]x - 1 = x^2- 6x + 9[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]x^2 - 6x - x + 9 + 1 = 0[/tex]
[tex]x^2 - 7x + 10 = 0[/tex]
Expand again
[tex]x^2 - 2x-5x + 10 = 0[/tex]
Factorize
[tex]x(x - 2) -5(x -2)= 0[/tex]
Factor out x - 2
[tex](x - 5)(x -2)= 0[/tex]
Split
[tex]x - 5=0[/tex] or [tex]x - 2 = 0[/tex]
[tex]x= 5[/tex] or [tex]x = 2[/tex]
The above values are valid values of x.

Answer:
[tex]B =102[/tex]
[tex]Y = 32[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving (47):
To solve for B, we have:
[tex]B + 50 + 28 = 180[/tex] --- sum of angles in a triangle
This gives
[tex]B + 78 = 180[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]B =- 78 + 180[/tex]
[tex]B =102[/tex]
Solving (48):
To solve for Y, we have:
[tex]X + Y+ Z = 180[/tex] --- sum of angles in a triangle
This gives
[tex]Y = 180 - X - Z[/tex]
Where
[tex]W+ X=180[/tex] -- angle on a straight line
Solve for X
[tex]X=180 -W[/tex]
[tex]X=180 -100 = 80[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]Y = 180 - X - Z[/tex]
[tex]Y = 180 - 80 - 68[/tex]
[tex]Y = 32[/tex]

What is the Segment Addition Theorem?The segment addition theorem states that if a point, C, lies between two endpoints of a segment, A and B, then: AC + CB = AB.
Given:
XY = 2x+1
YZ = 6x
XZ = 81
Thus:
XY + YZ = XZ (segment addition theorem)
2x + 1 + 6x = 81
Find x
8x = 81 - 1
8x = 80
x = 10
Find YZ:
YZ = 6x
Plug in the value of x
YZ = 6(10)
YZ = 60
Therefore, applying the segment addition theorem, the value of x = 10
YZ = 60
