Solve the equation for x.
2/3x-1/9x+5=20
Answer:
x = 27
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm assuming the equation looks like this:
[tex]\frac{2}{3}x-\frac{1}{9}x+5=20[/tex]
Here's how to solve for x:
[tex]\frac{2}{3}x-\frac{1}{9}x+5=20[/tex]
(subtract 5 from both sides)
[tex]\frac{2}{3}x-\frac{1}{9}x=15[/tex]
(Find the GCF of 3 and 9, which is 3. Multiply 2/3 by 3/3. You get 6/9)
[tex]\frac{6}{9}x-\frac{1}{9}x=15[/tex]
(add like terms)
[tex]\frac{5}{9}x=15[/tex]
(multiply 9/5 to both sides, which is the same as dividing both sides by 5/9)
x = 27

What is subtraction?Subtraction stands for the resultant number, which exists acquired by taking the difference of a number from another number.
Let a number be subtracted from the number b. Then the consequent number after subtracting b from a will be,
d = b - a
Here, (a, b) exists the real numbers.
It exists given that there exist 3 apples. 1 apple stand was taken. Let's assume after taking the 3 apples, that there exist x apples remaining.
As there exist a total of 3 apples and 1 apple stand taken, then to estimate the number of apples left, we must subtract 1 apple from 3 apples.
Therefore, the total apples left exist,
x = 3 - 1

The MD orders 50mg of an elixir to be given every 12 hours. Available is 125mg/5ml. How much should be administered every 12 hours?
Answer:
2ml
Step-by-step explanation:
50mg of some potent agent has to be given every 12 hours.
there is a solution that has a concentration of that agent of 125mg/5ml
we need to administer some part of this solution, which we cannot (or should not) change in its structure.
that means the ratio of agent to overall solution stays the same, no matter how much of the solution we administer.
all we need to do is to transit the ratio of 125/5 to represent 50/x (maintaining the said ratio).
in other words, we need to find how many ml we need to administer, so that 50mg of the agent enter the body.
so,
125/5 = 50/x
125x/5 = 50
25x = 50
x = 50/25 = 2
2ml of the solution needs to be administered every 12 hours.
The running trail in the local park is 2.826 miles long. If the park board were planning to extend the trail by 1.46 miles, what would the new length of the running trail be?
Answer:
4.286
Step-by-step explanation:
you really need help with this ? you cannot just use your calculator ? that would have been faster than putting that question in here ...
remember, similar to the number positions in front of the decimal point, it is equally important to add the same positions after the decimal point.
we have 10th, 100th, 1000th, 10000th, 100000th, ... no end possible.
so we have
2.826 miles
and need to add 1.46 miles
2.826
1.46
----------
4.286
and the line of thinking goes from right to left
nothing plus 6 is 6
6 plus 2 is 8
4 plus 8 is 12, so we write 2 and carry over the 1
1 plus 2 plus 1 carry over is 4
if it helps, you can always add zeroes at the end of any digits after the decimal point, as you can also add zeroes in front to the digits before the decimal point to make both numbers have the same length and their decimal points are perfectly aligned.
our addition could have also looked like
2.826
1.460
with the same result
overall, if this is truly helping you, an example of using both leading and tailing zeroes could be

You bought a car that was $25500 and the value depreciates by 4.5% each year.
How much will the car be worth after 5 years?
How much after 8 years?
Answer:
(a) 20256.15625
(b) 17642.78546
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) There's a formula for this problem y = A(d)^t where, A is the initial value you are given, d is the growth or decay rate and t is the time period. So, in this case, as the car cost is decreasing it is a decay problem and we can write the formula as such; y = A(1-R)^t
So, in 5 years the car will be worth, 25500(1-4.5%)^5 or 20256.15625 dollars
(b) And after 8 years the car will be worth 25500(1-4.5%)^8 or 17642.78546 dollars.
Uma pizzaria oferece em seu cardápio 12 sabores de pizza. Se um cliente pretende pedir 3 pizzas, então o número de maneiras que ele pode realizar esse pedido é;
•364
•220
•440
•1320
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Partindo do pressuposto de que você pode ter coberturas duplas e triplas do mesmo item, o cálculo é relativamente simples. Para calcular as combinações possíveis; deve-se multiplicar as coberturas disponíveis pelo número total de coberturas permitidas. Este cálculo é semelhante a como olhamos para diferentes sistemas de contagem de base. Normalmente contamos com decimais (base 10), portanto, o número de combinações, se usar 3 dígitos, seria calculado por 10 x 10 x 10.
10x10 = 100
100x10 = 1000 combinações (0 a 999)
Sua pergunta sobre coberturas de pizza é a mesma, mas assumindo um sistema de numeração de base 12, então 12x12x12 ou 12³
Portanto, 1.728 combinações incluindo 0 (sem coberturas?) E também incluindo 12 ocasiões em que todas as 3 coberturas seriam iguais. Se esses cenários de pessoas forem restritos de modo que você só possa ter coberturas duplas máximas, etc., então essas combinações devem ser removidas (subtraídas do total de combinações permitidas).
Espero ter ajudado você a entender os princípios, então você deve ser capaz de trabalhar a partir disso, de muitas outras soluções semelhantes
A textile fiber manufacturer is investigating a new drapery yarn, which the company claims has a mean thread elongation of 12 kilograms with a standard deviation of 0.5 kilograms. The company wishes to test the hypothesis H0: µ = 12 against H1: µ < 12 using a random sample of n = 4 specimens. Calculate the P-value if the observed statistic is Xbar (average) = 11.25. Suppose that the distribution of the sample mean is approximately normal.
Answer:
The p-value of the test is 0.0013.
Step-by-step explanation:
The test statistic is:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.
12 is tested at the null hypothesis:
This means that [tex]\mu = 12[/tex]
Standard deviation of 0.5 kilograms.
This means that [tex]\sigma = 0.5[/tex]
Sample of n = 4 specimens. Observed statistic is Xbar (average) = 11.25.
This means that [tex]n = 4, X = 11.25[/tex]
Value of the test statistic:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
[tex]z = \frac{11.25 - 12}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{4}}}[/tex]
[tex]z = -3[/tex]
P-value:
Probability of finding a sample mean belo 11.25, which is the p-value of z = -3.
Looking at the z-table, z = -3 has a p-value of 0.0013, thus the this is the p-value of the test.

A merchant keeps marble in a cylindrical plastic container that has a diameter of 28cm and height of 35cm. A marble has a diameter of 25mm. Determine the number of marbles that can be stored in such a container if air space accounts for 20% between marbles.
Answer:
2107 marbles can be stored in the container.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a merchant keeps marble in a cylindrical plastic container that has a diameter of 28cm and height of 35cm, and a marble has a diameter of 25mm, to determine the number of marbles that can be stored in such a container if air space accounts for 20 % between marbles, the following calculation must be performed, knowing that the volume of a cylinder is equal to height x π x radius²:
35 x 3.14 x (28/2) ² = X
109.9 x (14 x 14) = X
109.9 x 196 = X
21,540.4 = X
In turn, the volume of each 25mm diameter marble is equal to:
25mm = 2.5cm
4/3 x 3.14 x 1.25³ = X
4.18666 x 1.953125 = X
8.1770 = X
21,540.4 x 0.8 = 17,232.32
17,232.32 / 8,177 = 2,107.41
Therefore, 2107 marbles can be stored in the container.
Assume that the breaking system of a train consists of two components connected in series with both of them following Weibull distributions. For the first component the shape parameter is 2.1 and the characteristic life is 100,000 breaking events. For the second component the shape parameter is 1.8 and characteristic life of 80,000. Find the reliability of the system after 2,000 breaking events:
Answer:
0.9984
Step-by-step explanation:
we have shape parameter for the first component as 2.1
characteristics life = 100000
for this component
we have
exp(-2000/100000)².¹
= e^-0.0002705
= 0.9997
for the second component
shape parameter = 1.8
characteristic life = 80000
= exp(-2000/80000)¹.⁸
= e^-0.001307
= 0.9987
the reliability oif the system after 2000 events
= 0.9987 * 0.9997

14. The Elizabeth Tower is 320 feet tall. At what time or times during your ride on the London Eye are you at the same height as the top of the tower? Show your work. (4 points: 2 points for finding the correct time(s), 2 points for work shown)
Answer:
Ok so on a clock there is 12 numbers where 12 is on top so at 12 am and 12 pm noon and midnight you will be at the top of the clock
Hope This Helps!!!
During the ride on the London Eye, you will be at the same height as the top of the Elizabeth Tower at approximately 21 minutes and 43.16 seconds after the start of the ride.
To determine the time(s) during the ride on the London Eye when you are at the same height as the top of the Elizabeth Tower (commonly known as Big Ben), we need to consider the height of the London Eye and its rotational motion.
Given that the Elizabeth Tower is 320 feet tall, we need to find the position of the London Eye when its height aligns with the top of the tower.
The London Eye has a height of 443 feet, and it completes one full rotation in approximately 30 minutes (or 1800 seconds). This means that it moves at a constant angular velocity of 360 degrees per 1800 seconds.
To find the time(s) when the heights align, we can set up a proportion:
(Height of the Elizabeth Tower) / (Height of the London Eye) = (Angle covered by the London Eye) / 360 degrees
Substituting the given values:
320 / 443 = (Time to align) / 1800
Simplifying the equation:
(Time to align) = (320 / 443) * 1800
Calculating the value:
(Time to align) ≈ 1303.16 seconds
Converting the time to minutes and seconds:
(Time to align) ≈ 21 minutes and 43.16 seconds
Therefore, during the ride on the London Eye, you will be at the same height as the top of the Elizabeth Tower at approximately 21 minutes and 43.16 seconds after the start of the ride.

Answer:
B - 82%
Step-by-step explanation:
.34+.48
The percentage of people who can swim is 82%.
Option B is the correct answer.
What is a percentage?
The percentage means the required value out of 100.
It is calculated by dividing the required value by the total value and multiplying it by 100.
The percentage change is also calculated using the same method.
In percentage change, we find the difference between the values given.
Example:
Required percentage value = a
total value = b
Percentage = a/b x 100
We have,
The relative frequency table shows the proportion of people in each group who can and cannot swim.
To find the percentage of people who can swim, we need to add up the proportion of adults who can swim (0.34) and the proportion of children who can swim (0.48).
Percentage of people who can swim
= (0.34 + 0.48) x 100%
= 82%

Sally bought five books.Their mean price was 3.25. The total cost for four books was 11.75.what was the cost of the fifth book
Answer:
$4.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the mean formula: mean = sum of elements / number of elements
Let x represent the cost of the fifth book, and solve for x:
mean = sum of elements / number of elements
3.25 = (11.75 + x) / 5
16.25 = 11.75 + x
4.5 = x
So, the cost of the fifth book was $4.50
Police Chase: A speeder traveling 40 miles per hour (in a 25 mph zone) passes a stopped police car which immediately takes off after the speeder. If the police car speeds up steadily to 55 miles/hour in 10 seconds and then travels at a steady 55 miles/hour, how long and how far before the police car catches the speeder who continued traveling at 40 miles/hour
Answer:
a. 18.34 s b. 327.92 m
Step-by-step explanation:
a. How long before the police car catches the speeder who continued traveling at 40 miles/hour
The acceleration of the car a in 10 s from 0 to 55 mi/h is a = (v - u)/t where u = initial velocity = 0 m/s, v = final velocity = 55 mi/h = 55 × 1609 m/3600 s = 24.58 m/s and t = time = 10 s.
So, a = (v - u)/t = (24.58 m/s - 0 m/s)/10 s = 24.58 m/s ÷ 10 s = 2.458 m/s².
The distance moved by the police car in 10 s is gotten from
s = ut + 1/2at² where u = initial velocity of police car = 0 m/s, a = acceleration = 2.458 m/s² and t = time = 10 s.
s = 0 m/s × 10 s + 1/2 × 2.458 m/s² (10)²
s = 0 m + 1/2 × 2.458 m/s² × 100 s²
s = 122.9 m
The distance moved when the police car is driving at 55 mi/h is s' = 24.58 t where t = driving time after attaining 55 mi/h
The total distance moved by the police car is thus S = s + s' = 122.9 + 24.58t
The total distance moved by the speeder is S' = 40t' mi = (40 × 1609 m/3600 s)t' = 17.88t' m where t' = time taken for police to catch up with speeder.
Since both distances are the same,
S' = S
17.88t' = 122.9 + 24.58t
Also, the time taken for the police car to catch up with the speeder, t' = time taken for car to accelerate to 55 mi/h + rest of time taken for police car to catch up with speed, t
t' = 10 + t
So, substituting t' into the equation, we have
17.88t' = 122.9 + 24.58t
17.88(10 + t) = 122.9 + 24.58t
178.8 + 17.88t = 122.9 + 24.58t
17.88t - 24.58t = 122.9 - 178.8
-6.7t = -55.9
t = -55.9/-6.7
t = 8.34 s
So, t' = 10 + t
t' = 10 + 8.34
t' = 18.34 s
So, it will take 18.34 s before the police car catches the speeder who continued traveling at 40 miles/hour
b. how far before the police car catches the speeder who continued traveling at 40 miles/hour
Since the distance moved by the police car also equals the distance moved by the speeder, how far the police car will move before he catches the speeder is given by S' = 17.88t' = 17.88 × 18.34 s = 327.92 m

Usually 6<=x<=10 means all real numbers between 6 and 10, inclusive. This means example that 6.6 or 2pi are in this set with infinitely other numbers that I can't name.
{6,7,8,9,10} just means the set containing the numbers 6,7,8,9,10 and that's only those 5 numbers.

√(x-5)² = ±√3
x-5 = ±√3
Step 2: add 5 to both side of the equation
x-5+5 = 5±√3
x = 5±√3
Hence, from the options above, the right answer is
B. x = 5±√3
The following table shows the distribution of people in a tennis tournament, and one
person is to be selected at random.
Find the probability that the selected person is a female.
Express your answer as a decimal, rounded to the nearest hundredth.
Under Age 35
Male 8 Female 18
35 years and older
Male 11 Female18
Answer:
36/55
Step-by-step explanation:
Total 55 persons, total females 36.
The probability that the selected person is a female from the given table is gotten as; 0.65
What is the Probability?
From the given table we see that;
Males under 35 years = 8
Females under 35 years = 18
Males 35 years and older = 11
Females 35 years and older = 18
Thus;
Total number of people = 8 + 18 + 11 + 18
Total people = 55
Thus, probability that the selected person is a female is;
P(female) = (18 + 18)/55
P(female) = 36/55
P(female) = 0.65
