Mr. Morris asked Rob to shovel the snow from his driveway every day that it snowed during the month of January. He agreed to pay Rob $0.01 for the first day, $0.02 for the second day, $0.04 for the third day, $0.08 for the fourth day, and so on. If it snowed for 13 days in January, how much would Mr. Morris pay Rob on the 13th day?

Do not answer if you do not know. Only good answers with explanations.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Total amount to be paid on 13th day is $40.96.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Morris pays Rob $0.01, $0.02, $0.04 ..... on 1st, 2nd , 3rd .... day respectively.

We can clearly see that the next number is becoming double of the previous value.

The above sequence of numbers are in a Geometric Progression with  

First term, a = 0.01 and

Common ratio, r = 2

We have to find the total amount paid on 13th day.

We know that the [tex]n^{th}[/tex] term of a GP is given by:

[tex]a_{n} =ar^{n-1}[/tex]

Where, a is the first term of GP

r is the common ratio

We have to find the [tex]13^{th}[/tex] term of the GP as per question statement.

Putting the values in the formula above:

n = 13

a = 0.01 and

r = 2  

[tex]a_{13} = 0.01 \times 2^{13-1}\\\Rightarrow 0.01 \times 2^{12} \\\Rightarrow 0.01 \times 4096\\\Rightarrow 40.96[/tex]

Total amount to be paid on 13th day is $40.96.

Answer:

1. x = -4

  y = -20

2. x = -1

   y = 3

3. x = 7

   y = 4

4. x = -6.5

   y = -10.5

hope this helps :) sorry if I get it wrong!

Answer:

1) x=−4, y=−20

2) x=−1, y=3

3) x = 7 , y=4

4) x = -6.5 , y = -10.5

Step-by-step explanation:

1) y=5x;−3x+2y=−28

solving system by substitution:

substitute y =5x into 2nd equation:

-3x +2*5x =-28 → -3x+10x = -28 → 7x = -28 → x = -4

plug in  x in any equation and solve for  y = 5* -4 = -20

2) solving system by elimination:

Multiply the first equation by 7, and  the second equation by 5.

7(4x−5y=−19)

5(3x+7y=18)

----------------------

28x−35y=−133

15x+ 35y= 90

Add them up to eliminate y:

43x=−43 divide both sides by 43

x=−1

plug x back into 1st equation to solve for y

4x−5y=−19

(4)(−1)−5y=−19

−5y−4=−19 add 4 to both sides

−5y=−15 divide by -5

y=3

3) y =4 , 5x -6y = 11

plug in 4 for y in 2nd equation and solve for x:

5x -6* 4 =11 simplify

5x - 24 = 11 add  24 on each side

5x = 11 +24 simplify

5x = 35 divide by 5 on each side

x =7

4) y = x -4, 2x - y = -2.5

use substitution method:

2x -(x-4) = -2.5 distribute ( )

2x-x+4 = -2.5 simplify

x + 4 = -2.5 subtract 4 on each side

x = -2.5 -4

x = -6.5

plug in -6.5 for x in 1st equation and solve for y:

y = -6.5 -4

y = -10.5

Solve this system of linear equations. Separate
the x- and y-values with a comma.
6x + 3y = -21
12x + 8y = -52

A 20-inch bicycle has tires with a diameter of 20 inches. What is the circumference of these tires?


31.4 inches

62.8 inches

314 inches

1256 inches

Answers

Answer:B

Step-by-step explanation:

c=2nr  or c=nd

2*3.14 * 10= 62.8

3.14 * 20= 62.8

The circumference of the tires is 62.8 inches.

What is Circumference?

Circumference of a circle is defined for non straight curves which is the length of the boundary of the curve.

Given that, a 20-inch bicycle has tires with a diameter of 20 inches.

Diameter of the tire = 20 inches.

Radius of a circle or a circular object is half of the diameter of it.

Radius of the tire = 20 / 2 = 10 inches

Circumference of a circular object = 2πr, r is the radius.

Circumference of the tire = 2π r

                                          = 2 (3.14) (10)

                                          = 62.8 inches

Hence the circumference of a bicycle tire is 62.8 inches.

the applicants have ages that fall within the box of the box plot?


Please help!!!!

Answers

Answer:

The number of applicants that have ages that fall within the box of the boxplot = 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

box plot is constructed from five values: the minimum value, the first quartile, the median, the third quartile, and the maximum value.

The boxplot usually consists of a box and a whisker plot.

The whiskers represent data that is less than the first quartile or 25th percentile and data that is more than the third quartile or 75th percentile.

The box of the boxplot is bounded by the first quartile or 25th percentile and the third quartile or 75th percentile.

Hence, the fraction of the distribution that is usually contained in the box of the boxplot is (75 - 25), 50% of the distribution.

The total number of applicants = 20

50% of 20 = 10.

Hence, the number of applicants that have ages that fall within the box of the boxplot = 10

What is the surface area of this design?

Answers

Answer:

This is a trick question- It is actually not hard to get to 440! Here's how:

You probably already know that the tall rectangles take up 4×(5×8)=160 of surface area, and that the short rectangles take up 4×(2×10)=80 of surface area. This looks like an office building so let's call it one.

You probably also saw the big, 10×10=100 inch area underneath the design.

BUT, did you know that the small, 5×5 inch square on top can be COMBINED with the weird, L-shaped flat-roof part in the middle? That's right! the 5×5 inch square can be seen as part of a full 10×10 inch square sitting on top of the short, wide rectangles.

If you look at the L-shaped flat roof, you can see that it's actually 3 more 5×5 squares. You need to connect the 10-inch dimension on the bottom with the 5-inch one on the top.

SO, the answer is gonna be:

160 in² in tall rectangles, +

80 in² in short rectangles, +

100 in² on the bottom, +

100² on the combined top small square and corner roof

Add those all up using some quick maths, and you get 440 in².

Some more details if you're still confused:

The sides of the tall rectangle? It's 5 inches by 8 inches, so each side 8×5=40 in². They go all around the tall box, so there are 4 of them. 40+40+40+40=160, or in other words, 40×4=160.

Do you see the short, wide rectangles on the bottom? they're 10 inches by 2 inches each, so each one is 2×10=20 in². They also go all around the short box, so they add up to 20+20+20+20=80, or in other words, 20×4=80.

Now I want you to think about the bottom of the design, underneath. It is 10 inches by 10 inches, so it is 10×10=100.

Finally, the small square on top of the tall rectangle, and that L-shaped part. Together, they make another 100, or 5×5 on top plus 5×10 + 5×5 again for the parts of the L-shaped roof, or 25+50+25, which equals 100.

priya finds (1.05) x (2.8) by calculating 105 x 28 then moving the decimal point three spaces to the left

Answers

Answer:

Yes, That is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Example: Multiply 0.05 by 1.1

start with:

 0.05 × 1.1

multiply without decimal points:

 5 × 11 = 55

0.05 has 2 decimal places,

and 1.1 has 1 decimal place,

so the answer has 3 decimal places:

 0.055

Priya's method easy finds the product of decimals because multiplying whole numbers is easier than multiplying decimal numbers.

Given that, Priya finds (1.05) × (2.8) by calculating 105 × 28 and then moving the decimal point three spaces to the left.

We need to explain why Priya's method makes sense.

How to multiply two decimals?

To multiply decimals, first, multiply as if there is no decimal. Next, count the number of digits after the decimal in each factor. Finally, put the same number of digits behind the decimal in the product.

Now, 105 × 28 = 2,940

Moving the decimal point three spaces to the left, we get 2.940.

Also, (1.05) × (2.8) =2.940

Therefore, Priya's method easy finds the product of decimals, because multiplying whole numbers is easier than multiplying decimal numbers.

Declan says that for any number n, the product 4x n is greater than 4. Which value of n shows why Declan is incorrect

Answers

Answer:

[tex]n > 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Statement: 4x n is greater than 4

Required

Value of n

First we need to rewrite the statement in algebraic form;

Product 4 * n is represented by 4n

greater than 4 is represented by > 4

Bringing these two together, it gives the following

[tex]4n > 4[/tex]

Divide through by 4

[tex]\frac{4n}{4} > \frac{4}{4}[/tex]

[tex]n > 1[/tex]

We've arrive at solution;

This means that n is greater than 1

So, the values of n must start from 2 to show that the condition is true

The value of n = 7/8 makes the inequality 4n > 4 false because 7/8 is less than 1.

What is inequality?

It is defined as the expression in mathematics in which both sides are not equal they have mathematical signs either less than or greater than, known as inequality.

We have n as a number.

4n > 4

Plug n = 5

20 > 4 (true)

Plug n = 9/5

36/4 > 4

9 > 4 (true)

Plug n = 3

12 > 4 (true)

Plug n = 7/8

28/8 > 4

3.5 > 4  (false)

Thus, the value of n = 7/8 makes the inequality 4n > 4 false because 7/8 is less than 1.

What is the surface area of this design?

Answers

Answer:

440 inches squared - the last option

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Surface area of top square.

5 x 5 = 25 inches sq

Step 2. Surface area of the 4 sides of the cuboid.

5 x 8 = 40 inches sq

40 x 4 = 160 inches sq

Step 3. Surface area of the large square.

10 x 10 = 100 inches sq

100 - 25 (because it's being covered) = 75 inches sq

Step 4. Surface area of the 4 sides of the large flat cuboid.

2 x 10 = 20 inches sq

20 x 4 = 80 inches sq

Step 5. (OPTIONAL) Surface area of the bottom

10 x 10 = 100 inches sq

Step 6. Add up all.

25 + 160 + 75 + 80 (+ 100 if including the base) = 340

We can conclude that we have to include the base as well because 340 inches sq is not an option listed.

340 + 100 = 440 inches sq

440 inches sq is the last option
