Last softball season, Pamela had 46 hits, a combination of singles (1 base), doubles (2 bases), and triples (3 bases). These 46 hits totaled 66 bases, and she had 4 times as many singles as doubles. How many doubles did she have?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

She had 8 doubles.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved by a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of singles.

y is the number of doubles

z is the number of triples.

46 hits

This means that [tex]x + y + z = 46[/tex]

46 hits totaled 66 bases

This means that:

[tex]x + 2y + 3z = 66[/tex]

4 times as many singles as doubles

This means that [tex]x = 4y[/tex]

So

[tex]x + 2y + 3z = 66[/tex]

[tex]4y + 2y + 3z = 66[/tex]

[tex]6y + 3z = 66[/tex]

And

[tex]x + y + z = 46[/tex]

[tex]4y + y + z = 46[/tex]

[tex]5y + z = 46 \rightarrow z = 46 - 5y[/tex]

Then

[tex]6y + 3z = 66[/tex]

[tex]6y + 3(46 - 5y) = 66[/tex]

[tex]6y + 138 - 15y = 66[/tex]

[tex]9y = 72[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{72}{9}[/tex]

[tex]y = 8[/tex]

She had 8 doubles.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct option is

B

x

2

−y

2

+2xy

dx

dy

=0

The system of circles touching Y axis at origin will have centres on X axis. Let (a,0) be the centre of a circle. Then the radius of the circle should be a units, since the circle should touch Y axis at origin.

Equation of a circle with centre at (a,0) and radius a

(x─a)²+(y─0)²=a²

That is,

x²+y²─2ax=0 ─────► (1)

The above equation represents the family of circles touching Y axis at origin. Here 'a' is an arbitrary constant.

In order to find the differential equation of system of circles touching Y axis at origin, eliminate the the arbitrary constant from equation(1)

Differentiating equation(1) with respect to x,

2x+2ydy/dx─2a=0

or

2a=2(x+ydy/dx)

Replacing '2a' of equation(1) with the above expression, you get

x²+y²─2(x+ydy/dx)(x)=0

That is,

─x²+y²─2xydy/dx=0

or

x²─y²+2xydy/dx=0

The student took the numbers for the factors 5, -4 for the zeros  instead of solving the equation

The zeros are -5, 4

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 +x - 20=0

What 2 number multiply to -20 and add to 1

5*-4 = -20

5+-4 = 1

(x+5)(x-4) =0

Using the zero product property

x+5 = 0  x-4 =0

x=-5  x=4

Answer:

Solution given:

equation is:

x²+x-20=0

doing middle term factorisation

note:we need to get 1 while subtracting factor of the product of constant and coefficient of x².

20*1=20=2*5*2*1

we get 1 while subtracting 5-2*2=5-4

now substitute value 5-4 at coefficient of x

we get

x²+(5-4)x-20=0

now

distribute

x²+5x-4x-20=0

taking common from each two term

x(x+5)-4(x+5)=0

again taking common (x+5) and keeping remaining at another bracket

(x+5)(x-4)=0

either

x+5=0

x=-5

or

x-4=0

x=4

Error is:

x= 4 not -4

x=-5 not 5.

The diagram shows a wooden prism of height 5cm.
The cross section of the prism is a sector of a circle with sector angle 25º.
The radius of the sector is 15 cm.
Calculate the total surface area of the prism.

Answers

Answer:

280.8997

Step-by-step explanation:

cross section = 2*15*5+2*(25/360)*15*15*pi+5*(25/360)*2*pi*15

= 280.8997

Total surface area of prism is 280.890cm²

What is surface area?

A solid object's surface area is a measurement of the overall space that the object's surface takes up, and it is always expressed in square units.

The term "surface area" is sometimes used to refer to "total surface area".

Find the sector angle in radians

α = 25× (π/180)

α = (25π)/(180) rad

Find the area of the prism:

A = 2×15×5 + 15×15×α + 5×15×α

A = 150 + 15×15×(25π)/(180) + 5×15×(25π)/(180)

A = 280.890cm²

B.No, since the y-intercepts are different.
C.Yes, since the slopes are the same and the y-intercepts are different.
D.No, since the slopes are different.

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

one line is

y = 3x/7 + 11

its slope is 3/7

the y-intercept is, of course, when x=0. there y=11

the other is

-3x + 7y = 13

7y = 3x + 13

y = 3x/7 + 13/7

its slope is 3/7 (the same as the other line)

the y-intercept (x=0) is y = 13/7 (different to the other line)

Answer:

C. Yes, since the slopes are the same and the y-intercepts are different.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]y=\frac{3}{7} x+11[/tex]  and [tex]-3x+7y=13[/tex]

→ Rearrange the second equation to make y the subject

7y = 3x + 13

→ Divide everything by 7

y = 95°, find the measure of x

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = 100°

  y = 95°

Step-by-step explanation:

It is probably easier to find y first. Opposite angles of an inscribed quadrilateral are supplementary, so ...

  y = 180° -85° = 95°

The measure of an arc is double the measure of the inscribed angle subtending it. The arc subtended by angle y is ...

  90° +x = 2y

  x = 190° -90° = 100°

_____

Additional comment

The rule cited above regarding opposite angles of an inscribed quadrilateral comes from the theorem regarding inscribed angles. In the given diagram, the diagonal from the bottom vertex to the top one is a chord that divides the circle into two arcs. Their sum is 360°. The inscribed angle theorem tells you ...

  2y +2(85°) = 360°

  y + 85° = 180° . . . . . . . divide by 2; opposite angles are supplementary

If the expressions are equivalent then,

⇒ [tex]4x-x+5 = 8-3x-3[/tex]

⇒ [tex]3x+5=-3x+5[/tex]

In both the sides the x has different values.

So, Both expressions should be evaluated with two different values. If for each substituted value, the final values of the expressions are the same, then the two expressions must be equivalent.

Hence we can conclude that option (D) both expressions should be evaluated with two different values. If for each substituted value, the final values of the expressions are the same, then the two expressions must be equivalent is the correct answer.

Assuming you want x to approach negative infinity, you have the correct answer. It is choice A.

=====================================================

Explanation:

The root x = -2 leads to the factor x+2. That means the answer is between A and B.

As x approaches negative infinity, i.e. as we move to the left, we're going down the red curve and y = f(x) is going to approach negative infinity as well.

In terms of symbols, we'd write [tex]x \to -\infty, \ f(x) \to -\infty[/tex]

Informally, we could say "it falls to the left" as a way to describe this left end behavior.

A sample of 4 children was drawn from a population of rural Indian children aged 12 to 60 months. The sample mean of mid-upper arm circumference was 150 mm with a standard deviation of 6.73. What is a 95% confidence interval for the mean of mid-upper arm circumference based on your sample

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the mean of mid-upper arm circumference based on your sample is between 139.29 mm and 160.71 mm.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom,which is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 4 - 1 = 3

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 3 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 3.1824

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 3.1824\frac{6.73}{\sqrt{4}} = 10.71[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 150 - 10.71 = 139.29 mm

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 150 + 10.71 = 160.71 mm

The 95% confidence interval for the mean of mid-upper arm circumference based on your sample is between 139.29 mm and 160.71 mm.
