The family will use 3,600 fewer gallons of water with the new showerheads in a 30-day period.

A family of five recently replaced its 5-gallon-per-minute showerheads with water-saving 2-gallon-per-minute showerheads. Each member of the family averages 8 minutes in the shower per day. In a 30-day period, the family will use 3,600 fewer gallons of water with the new showerheads. How many fewer gallons of water will the family use with the new showerheads?

Calculate the number of gallons used per person per shower before:

5 gal/min x 8 min = 40 gallons per person per shower.

The number of gallons used per person per shower after:

2 gal/min x 8 min = 16 gallons per person per shower.

The number of gallons used per person per day before:

40 gallons x 1 shower = 40 gallons per person per day.

The number of gallons used per person per day after:

16 gallons x 1 shower = 16 gallons per person per day

The number of gallons used per family per day before:

40 gallons x 5 people = 200 gallons per day

The number of gallons used per family per day after:

16 gallons x 5 people = 80 gallons per day

The number of gallons used per month before:

40 gallons x 5 people x 30 days = 6,000 gallons per month

The number of gallons used per month after:

16 gallons x 5 people x 30 days = 2,400 gallons per month

The family will use 6,000 - 2,400 = 3,600 fewer gallons of water with the new showerheads in a 30-day period. Therefore, the answer is 3,600.

Answer:

The second figure.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first figure's perimeter is:

70 in + 42 in + 56 in = 168 inches.

And the second figure's perimeter is:

42 in + 33 in + 33 in + 64 in = 172 inches.

Therefore, Figure 1 < Figure 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + y^2 + 2y =  - 5

4x = - y^2 -2y - 5          

4x = - (y^2 + 2y)   - 5      'complete the square' for y

4x = - ( y +1)^2   + 1    - 5

 x = - 1/4 ( y+1)^2  - 1             vertex is at -1, -1

-14x+2y^2-8y -20 = 0

14x = 2y^2 -8y-20

14x = 2 ( y^2 - 4y) - 20     complete the square for y

14x = 2(y-2)^2  -8 - 20

x = 1/7 ( y-2)^2 - 2                Vertex is at   -2 , 2

If m = 3/2, the two equations in the system are dependent and have an infinite number of solutions.

To do this, we can set the coefficients of x and y in the two equations equal to each other:

6 - 4m = 2k(2m - 1)

2n - 7 = 3k

Simplifying these equations, we get:

8m - 6 = 4km

2n - 7 = 3k

We can solve the first equation for k:

k = (8m - 6)/(4m)

Substituting this into the second equation and solving for n, we get:

n = (16m - 29)/(8m - 12)

Now we need to check if there are any values of m for which the equations are proportional. We can do this by checking if the expressions for k and n are the same for all values of m.

We find that the expressions for k and n are the same for m = 3/2.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Therefore, the smallest positive integer with at least 8 odd factors and at least 16 even factors is N = 1800.

In mathematics, combination is a way to count the number of possible selections of k objects from a set of n distinct objects, without regard to the order in which they are selected.

The number of combinations of k objects from a set of n objects is denoted by [tex]nCk[/tex] or [tex]C(n,k),[/tex] and is given by the formula:

[tex]nCk = n! / (k! *(n-k)!)[/tex]

where n! denotes the factorial of n, i.e., the product of all positive integers up to n.

by the question.

Now, let's consider the parity (evenness or oddness) of the factors of N. A factor of N is odd if and only if it has an odd number of factors of each odd prime factor of N. Similarly, a factor of N is even if and only if it has an even number of factors of each odd prime factor of N. Therefore, the condition that N has at least 8 odd factors and at least 16 even factors can be expressed as:

[tex](a_{1} +1) * (a_{2} +1) * ... * (an+1) = 8 * 2^{16}[/tex]

Let's consider the factor 2 separately. Since N has at least 16 even factors, it must have at least 16 factors of 2. Therefore, we have a_i >= 4 for at least one prime factor p_i=2. Let's assume without loss of generality that p[tex]1=2[/tex] and [tex]a1 > =4.[/tex]

Now, let's consider the remaining prime factors of N. Since N has at least 8 odd factors, it must have at least 8 factors that are not divisible by 2. Therefore, the product (a2+1) * ... * (an+1) must be at least 8. Let's assume without loss of generality that n>=2 (i.e., N has at least three distinct prime factors).

Since a_i >= 4 for i=1, we have:

[tex]N > = 2^4 * p2 * p3 > = 2^4 * 3 * 5 = 240[/tex]

Let's now try to find the smallest such N. To minimize N, we want to make the product (a2+1) * ... * (an+1) as small as possible. Since 8 = 2 * 2 * 2, we can try to distribute the factors 2, 2, 2 among the factors (a2+1), (a3+1), (a4+1) in such a way that their product is minimized. The only possibility is:

[tex](a2+1) = 2^2, (a3+1) = 2^1, (a4+1) = 2^1[/tex]

If x is a positive integer , 4x^1/2 is equivalent to product of 2 and square root of x, wherein it would surely be a positive value greater than 2.

Positive integers are the numbers on the number line which are greater then zero and extend on the right hand side of the number line till infinity. These numbers are also whole numbers in itself such as 1, 2, 3...,∞. When 4x^1/2 is calculated, it is assumed that 4x is raised to power half, which will provide the answer as 2√x.

It is because square root of 4 will be 2 and that of x will be √x. Square roots are the numbers obtained by multiplying a specific number by the number itself. For example: 3×3 = 9 or square root of 9 is 3.

If some positive integer is fixed in the equation, the desired outcome would be obtained as follows:

Answer:

  138°

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the measure of the angle at two tangents when they intercept an arc of 42°.

The short answer is that the exterior angle x is the supplement of the measure of the arc:

  x = 180° -42°

  x = 138°

An exterior angle where secants meet is half the difference of the arcs of the circle they intercept. Here, the secants have been located so the corresponding chord length between the near and far circle intercept points have degenerated to zero. That is, they are tangents.

The angle relation still holds:

  x = (long arc - short arc)/2 = ((360° -42°) -42°)/2 = (360° -2·42°)/2

  x = 180° -42° = 138°

The tangents, together with their associated radii form a quadrilateral. The angles at the tangents are 90°, and the total of all angles is 360°. This gives us the relation ...

  x + 90° +42° +90° = 360°

  x +42° = 180° . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 180°

  x = 180° -42° = 138°

(We solved this with an extra step, so you could see the same "supplementary angles" relationship between x and 42°.)

The average number of beads that the girls have is 63

Let's start by using algebra to represent the given information:

Let b be the number of beads that Sally has.

Then, Kelly has 3/4 times as many beads as Sally, which can be expressed as (3/4)b.

Also, we know that Kelly has 18 more beads than Sally, which can be expressed as (b + 18).

Putting these together, we can write the equation:

(3/4)b = b + 18

Solving for b, we get:

b = 72

So, Sally has 72 beads, and Kelly has (3/4) × 72 = 54 beads.

The average number of beads that the girls have is (72 + 54)/2 = 63 beads

The original price of the baseball hat before 12% off in the sale was $14.20.

A number can be expressed as a fraction of 100 using a percentage. It frequently serves to indicate a portion of a total and is represented by the sign %. We may state that 25% of the class is made up of guys, for instance, if there are 100 pupils in the class and 25 of them are male.

The Roman term per centum, which meaning "by the hundred," is where the word "percent" originates.

Let us suppose the original price of the baseball hat = x.

Given that, baseball hats are on sale for 12% off the original price.

That is,

12.50 = x(1 - 12/100)

12.50 = x(100 - 12)/100

U is a binomial random variable with n trials and probability of success given by 1 - p.

As Y is a binomial random variable with n trials and probability of success given by p. Using the moment-generating functions method, it can be shown that U = n - Y is a binomial random variable with n trials and probability of success given by 1 - p. The binomial distribution is described by two parameters: n, which is the number of trials, and p, which is the probability of success in any given trial. If a binomial random variable is denoted by Y, then:[tex]P(Y = k) = \binom{n}{k}p^{k}(1 - p)^{n-k}[/tex]

The method of generating moments can be used to show that U = n - Y is a binomial random variable with n trials and probability of success given by 1 - p. The moment-generating function of a binomial random variable is given by: [tex]M_{y}(t) = [1 - p + pe^{t}]^{n}[/tex]

The moment-generating function for U is: [tex]M_{u}(t) = E(e^{tu}) = E(e^{t(n-y)})[/tex]

Using the definition of moment-generating functions, we can write: [tex]M_{u}(t) = E(e^{t(n-y)})$$$$= \sum_{y=0}^{n} e^{t(n-y)} \binom{n}{y} p^{y} (1-p)^{n-y}[/tex]

Taking the summation of the above expression: [tex]= \sum_{y=0}^{n} e^{tn} e^{-ty} \binom{n}{y} p^{y} (1-p)^{n-y}$$$$= e^{tn} \sum_{y=0}^{n} \binom{n}{y} (pe^{-t})^{y} [(1-p)^{n-y}]^{1}$$$$= e^{tn} (pe^{-t} + 1 - p)^{n}[/tex]

Comparing this expression with the moment-generating function for a binomial random variable, we can say that U is a binomial random variable with n trials and probability of success given by 1 - p.

Maria's capital gain is 55.21%. Rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent, this is 55.2%.

To determine Maria's capital gain as a percent, we need to calculate the difference between the selling price and the purchase price, and then express this difference as a percentage of the purchase price.

The purchase price for 1,000 shares of stock was:

$35.50 x 1,000 = $35,500

The selling price for 1,000 shares of stock was:

$55.10 x 1,000 = $55,100

The capital gain is the difference between the selling price and the purchase price:

$55,100 - $35,500 = $19,600

To express this gain as a percentage of the purchase price, we divide the capital gain by the purchase price and multiply by 100:

($19,600 / $35,500) x 100 = 55.21%

In summary, to calculate the percent capital gain from the purchase and selling price of a stock, we simply divide the difference between the two prices by the purchase price and multiply by 100.
