Step 1: Define

Identify

2(3x - 7) = 16

Step 2: Solve for x

[Division Property of Equality] Divide 2 on both sides:                                  3x - 7 = 8[Addition Property of Equality] Add 7 on both sides:                                     3x = 15[Division Property of Equality] Divide 3 on both sides:                                  x = 5
Answer 2

Answer:

X=5

Step-by-step explanation:

divide by 2 on both sides first then you have

3x-7 = 8

take 7 to the other side so that you have an X factor on one side, thus

3x =15

then divide by 3 to remain with X

X = 5

Step 1: Solve for one variable

---I will be using the first equation and solving for a.

a + c = 405

a = 405 - c

Step 2: Substitute into the other equation

---Now that we have a value for a, we can substitute that value into the second equation. Then, we can solve for c.

12a + 5c = 3950

12(405 - c) + 5c = 3950

4860 - 12c + 5c = 3950

-12c + 5c = -910

-7c = -910

c = 130

Step 3: Plug back into the first equation

---We now know one variable, which means we can plug back into our first equation and solve for the other.

a = 405 - c

a = 405 - 130

a = 275

Answer: 275 adults, 130 children

I purchased a new Apple iPad on Amazon for $249.00. The tax rate is 8.625%. What is the total purchase price of the iPad?

Answers

Answer:

270.47625

Step-by-step explanation:

249 is the original price

(249/100) · 8.625 = 21.47625 the tax total

249 + 21.47625 = 270.47625

SAT scores are normally distributed with a mean of 1,500 and a standard deviation of 300. An administrator at a college is interested in estimating the average SAT score of first-year students. If the administrator would like to limit the margin of error of the 88% confidence interval to 15 points, how many students should the administrator sample? Make sure to give a whole number answer.

Answers

Answer:

The administrator should sample 968 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.88}{2} = 0.06[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a p-value of [tex]1 - 0.06 = 0.94[/tex], so Z = 1.555.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

Standard deviation of 300.

This means that [tex]n = 300[/tex]

If the administrator would like to limit the margin of error of the 88% confidence interval to 15 points, how many students should the administrator sample?

This is n for which M = 15. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]15 = 1.555\frac{300}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]15\sqrt{n} = 300*1.555[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 15

[tex]\sqrt{n} = 20*1.555[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (20*1.555)^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 967.2[/tex]

Rounding up:

The administrator should sample 968 students.

Destiny just received two separate gifts from her great-great-grandmother.
The first gift is a box of 18 chocolate candy bars, and the second gift is a pack of 12 cookies.
Destiny wants to use all of the chocolate candy bars and cookies to make identical snack bags for her cousins.
What is the greatest number of snack bags that Destiny can make?

Answers

Answer:

Destiny will be able to create 12 identical snack bags.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a snack bag will be 1 chocolate candy bar, and 1 cookie, we have to subtract 1 chocolate for every cookie she has, and that will leave us with 6 chocolate bars left. The equation for this is 18 - 12 = 6.

A. If the side lengths are the same, then a triangle is not scalene.

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle can be defined as a two-dimensional shape that comprises three (3) sides, three (3) vertices and three (3) angles.

Simply stated, any polygon with three (3) lengths of sides is a triangle.

In Geometry, a triangle is considered to be the most important shape.

Generally, there are three (3) main types of triangle based on the length of their sides and these include;

I. Equilateral triangle: it has all of its three (3) sides and interior angles equal.

II. Isosceles triangle: it has two (2) of its sides equal in length and two (2) equal angles.

III. Scalene triangle: it has all of its three (3) sides and interior angles different in length and size respectively.

Answer:

A) 4x^2+20x+25=(2x)^2+2*(2x)*5+5^2=(2x+5)^2

Area=(side)^2, side=sqrt(area)=sqrt((2x+5)^2)=2x+5

B) 4x^2-9y^2=(2x-3y)(2x+3y), these are the dimensions of the rectangle

A) The length of each side of the square is (2x + 5).

B) The dimensions of the rectangle are (2x - 3y) and (2x + 3y).

Used the concept of a quadratic equation that states,

An algebraic equation with the second degree of the variable is called a Quadratic equation.

Given that,

Part A: The area of a square is [tex](4x^2 + 20x + 25)[/tex] square units.

Part B: The area of a rectangle is [tex](4x^2 - 9y^2)[/tex] square units.

A) Now the length of each side of the square is calculated by factoring the area expression completely,

[tex](4x^2 + 20x + 25)[/tex]

[tex]4x^2 + (10 + 10)x + 25[/tex]

[tex]4x^2 + 10x + 10x + 25[/tex]

[tex]2x (x + 5) + 5(2x + 5)[/tex]

[tex](2x + 5) (2x+5)[/tex]

Hence the length of each side of the square is (2x + 5).

B) the dimensions of the rectangle are calculated by factoring the area expression completely,

[tex](4x^2 - 9y^2)[/tex]

[tex](2x)^2 - (3y)^2[/tex]

[tex](2x - 3y) (2x + 3y)[/tex]

2. 4(11 - 2x)²(x + 1)

3. π(x³ + 15x² + 63x + 81)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Write the polynomial function that models the given situation.

A rectangle has a length of 12 units and a width of 11 units. Squares of x by x units are cut out of each corner, and then the sides are folded up to create an open box. Express the volume V of the box as a polynomial function in terms of x.

Since the length of the rectangle is 12 units and its width 11 units and squares of x by x units are cut from its corners, it implies that a length x is cut from each side. So, the length of the open box is L = 12 - 2x and its width is w = 11 - 2x.

Since the cut corners of the rectangle are folded, the side x which is cut represents the height of the open box, h. so, h = x

So, the volume of the open box V = LWh = (12 - 2x)(11 - 2x)x

2. Write the polynomial function that models the given situation. A square has sides of 24 units. Squares x + 1 by x + 1 units are cut out of each corner, and then the sides are folded up to create an open box. Express the volume V of the box as a function in terms of x.

Since the square has sides of 24 units and squares of x + 1 by x + 1 units are cut from its corners, it implies that a length x + 1 is cut from each corner and the length 2(x + 1) is cut from each side. So, the length of side open box is L = 24 - 2(x + 1) = 24 - 2x - 2 = 24 - 2 - 2x = 22 - 2x = 2(11  - x)

Since the cut corners of the square are folded, the side x + 1 which is cut represents the height of the open box, h. so, h = x + 1

Since the area of the base of the pen box is a square, its area is L² = [2(11 - 2x)]²

So, the volume of the open box V = L²h = [2(11 - 2x)]²(x + 1) = 4(11 - 2x)²(x + 1)

3. Write the polynomial function that models the given situation. A cylinder has a radius of x + 6 units and a height 3 units more than the radius. Express the volume V of the cylinder as a polynomial function in terms of x.

The volume of a cylinder is V = πr²h where r = radius and h = height of cylinder.

Given that r = x + 6 and h is 3 units more than r, h = r + 3 = x + 6 + 3 = x + 9

So, V = πr²h

V = π(x + 3)²(x + 9)

V = π(x² + 6x + 9)(x + 9)

V = π(x³ + 6x² + 9x + 9x² + 54x + 81)

V = π(x³ + 15x² + 63x + 81)
