Twice the difference of a number and 8 equals 5.
Use the variable b for the unknown number.
Answer:
it's simple it means
2×b-8=5
Answer:
b = 10.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference of b and 8 is b - 8 and twice this difference is
2(b - 8) = 5 ← distribute parenthesis on left side
2b - 16 = 5 ( add 16 to both sides )
2b = 21 ( divide both sides by 2 )
b = 10.5
The unknown number b is 10.5
9.) During the soccer season, Finn scored goals on 8% of the shots he
took. If he scored 40 goals, how many shots did he take?
1 point
500 shots
50 shots
320 shots
32 shots
Answer:
500 shots
Step-by-step explanation:
the question is 8% of what number is 40?
we can use this proportion: is/of = %/100
let 'g' = number of goals
40/g = 8/100
cross-multiply to get:
8x = 4000
x = 500

Find the value(s) of x where the tangent to the graph of y=e^5x is parallel to the
line 10x + y = 17
Answer:
There are none.
Step-by-step explanation:
No calculus involved:
The line, in slope-intercept form, has equation [tex]y=-10x+17[/tex], ie is always decreasing (easy to spot applying the definition)
Meanwhile, [tex]y=e^{5x}[/tex] is always increasing over its domain.
At no point the tangent will be decreasing.
Let's use calculus
We are to solve the equation [tex]y'(x) = -10 \rightarrow 5e^{5x} = -10 \rightarrow e^{5x}=-2[/tex] which has no real solutions.

In a standard card deck, there are 52 different cards, which are divided into 4 suits (spades, diamonds, clubs, and hearts), with each suit containing 13 cards. What is the probability that in a randomly selected rearrangement of the card deck, the 3 of spades is after all the hearts
In a given permutation of 52 cards, if the 3 of spades is to follow all of the hearts, that means the 3 of spades must be at least the 14th card in the deck.
Consider some possible orderings of the deck:
• If the 3 of spades is the 14th card, then the deck looks like
[all 13 ♥] … 3 ♠ … [all other 38 cards]
There are 13! ways to arrange the 13 hearts at the beginning and 38! ways to arrange the tail of 38 cards. Hence there are 13! × 38! possible rearrangements of the deck where 3 ♠ is the 14th card.
• If 3 ♠ is the 15th card, then the deck looks like
[13 ♥ and 1 other] … 3 ♠ … [all other 37 cards]
and there would be 14! × 37! ways of arranging the cards in this order.
There are 39 possible positions for 3 ♠. Extrapolating, it follows that the total number of permutations of the deck in which all hearts occur before 3 ♠ is
[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^{38} (13+k)! \times (38-k)![/tex]
There are 52! total possible ways of rearranging the deck. Then the probability of rearranging the deck so that all hearts are drawn before 3 ♠ is
[tex]\displaystyle \frac1{52!} \sum_{k=0}^{38} (13+k)! \times (38-k)! = \frac{87,031,512,096,420,449}{221,360,321,731,856,907,600} \approx \boxed{0.000393}[/tex]
Elizabeth invested $970 in an account paying an interest rate of 6\tfrac{5}{8}6 8 5 % compounded daily. Matthew invested $970 in an account paying an interest rate of 6\tfrac{3}{4}6 4 3 % compounded continuously. After 8 years, how much more money would Matthew have in his account than Elizabeth, to the nearest dollar?
Using continuous compounding and compound interest, it is found that Matthew would have $17 more than Elizabeth in his account.
Compound interest:
[tex]A(t) = P\left(1 + \frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]
Continuous compounding:
[tex]A(t) = Pe^{rt}[/tex]
The parameters are:
A(t) is the amount of money after t years. P is the principal(the initial sum of money). r is the interest rate(as a decimal value). n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year. t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.For both of them:
Investment of $970, hence [tex]P = 970[/tex]Invested for 8 years, hence [tex]t = 8[/tex]Elizabeth:
Compounded daily, hence [tex]n = 365[/tex].Rate, as a percent, of [tex]6\frac{5}{8} = 6 + \frac{5}{8} = 6.625[/tex], hence [tex]r = 0.06625[/tex].Then:
[tex]A(t) = P\left(1 + \frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]
[tex]A(8) = 970\left(1 + \frac{0.06625}{365}\right)^{365(8)}[/tex]
[tex]A(8) = 1648[/tex]
Matthew:
Rate, as a percent, of [tex]6\frac{3}{4} = 6 + \frac{3}{4} = 6.75[/tex], hence [tex]r = 0.0675[/tex].Then:
[tex]A(t) = Pe^{rt}[/tex]
[tex]A(8) = 970e^{0.0675(8)}[/tex]
[tex]A(8) = 1665[/tex]
The difference is:
1665 - 1648 = 17
Hence, Matthew would have $17 more than Elizabeth in his account.

Given the graph of y=f(x), shown as a green curve, drag the green movable points to draw the graph of y=−f(x). When the green line is moved a red dashed line will appear where the original graph appeared for reference. Notice that you can control the positioning of the reflective function with the coordinate labeled "Drag Function" and control the width of the reflection with the coordinate labeled "Control Width."
The resulting function is presented in the image attached below.
In this question we know the graphic of a function and we must draw a new function which is the reflection of the original one around the x-axis. Mathematically speaking, a reflection a around the x-axis is defined by the following operation:
[tex]f'(x) = f(x) - 2\cdot [f(x) - 0][/tex]
[tex]f'(x) = - f(x)[/tex] (1)
Which means that the reflected function is equal to the original function multiplied by -1.
Now, we proceed to represent the reflected function graphically.

What is the equation of this line in slope-intercept form?
A: y = 4x + 1
B: y=−4x+1
C: y=4x−1
D: y=−14x+1
Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept is usually written as y = mx + b form, where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept is the y value when x is equal to 0.
We can first eliminate C, because the y-intercept of the graph is 1.
To solve for slope, which is the m, choose two points, (-1, 5) and (1, -3).
Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
= (-3 - 5) / (1 - (-1))
= (-3 - 5) / (1 + 1)
= -8/2
= -4
Plug in the slope and y-intercept, we get y = -4x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that Juan can choose to get home from work by car or bus.
When he chooses to get home by car, he arrives home after 7 p.m. 14 percent of the time.
When he chooses to get home by bus, he arrives home after 7 p.m. 62 percent of the time.
Because the bus is cheaper, he uses the bus 83 percent of the time.
What is the approximate probability that Juan chose to get home from work by bus, given that he arrived home after 7 p.m.?
Using conditional probability, it is found that there is a 0.9556 = 95.56% probability that Juan chose to get home from work by bus, given that he arrived home after 7 p.m.
Conditional Probability
[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.In this problem:
Event A: Arrived home after 7 p.m.Event B: Got home by bus.The percentages associated with arriving home after 7 p.m. are:
14% of 17%(by car).62% of 83%(by bus).Hence:
[tex]P(A) = 0.14(0.17) + 0.62(0.83) = 0.5384[/tex]
The probability of both arriving home after 7 p.m. and using bus is:
[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.62(0.83)[/tex]
Hence, the conditional probability is:
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.62(0.83)}{0.5384} = 0.9556[/tex]
0.9556 = 95.56% probability that Juan chose to get home from work by bus, given that he arrived home after 7 p.m.

Use the binomial formula to find the coefficient of the q^4 p^17
term in the expansion of (29+p)^21
Recal the binomial theorem:
[tex]\displaystyle (a+b)^n = \sum_{k=0}^n \binom nk a^{n-k} b^k[/tex]
Then
[tex]\displaystyle (2q+p)^{21} = \sum_{k=0}^{21} \binom{21}k (2q)^{21-k} p^k = \sum_{k=0}^{21} \binom{21}k 2^{21-k} q^{21-k} p^k[/tex]
We get the q⁴p¹⁷ term when k = 17, and its coefficient would be
[tex]\dbinom{21}{17} 2^{21-17} = \dfrac{21!}{17!(21-17)!} 2^4 = \dfrac{21\cdot20\cdot19\cdot18}{4\cdot3\cdot2\cdot1}\cdot2^4 = \boxed{95,760}[/tex]
Gabi owns one parcel measuring one square mile and another parcel measuring one mile x half a mile. She combined the parcels and sold them for $2.5 million. What price per acre did she receive for the land
We want to get the price per acre that she receives for the land, we will get that the price per acre is $2,777.8
First, we need to find the total area of the land.
There are two parcels, one with an area of 1 mi^2, and the other with dimensions of one-mile x half a mile, then the area of the other parcel is:
A' = (1 mi)*(0.5 mi) = 0.5 mi^2
The total area is the sum of these two, we get:
1 mi^2 + 0.5 mi^2 = 1.5 mi^2
And notice that we want to get the price per acre, knowing that:
1 mi^2 = 640 acres, then:
1.5 mi^2 = 1.5*(640 acres) = 900 acres.
The price per acre is equal to the quotient between the total price for the area and the number of acres, this gives:
P = ($2,500,000)/(900 acres) = $2,777.8
So each acre costs $2,777.8

Which inequality is represented by the graph?
Answer:
y < -3/2x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Points (-2,4) and (2, -2) are on the graph.
The graph crosses the y-axis at 1 so the y-intercept is 1
Slope = (change in the y-value)/(change in the x-value.
Slope = (-2 - 4)/ [2 - (- 2)]
Slope = -6/4
Slope = -3/2
The equation of the line : y = -3/2x + 1
Now the graph is dotted and it is shaded down.
Therefore the inequality is y < -3/2x + 1
