You have a giant bag of M&Ms and are wondering how many there are. You notice that there don’t seem to be nearly as many

orange M&Ms, so that feels doable to count. When you count the number of orange M&Ms in the giant bag you find that there are
48. If you then take a random sample and find that out of the 50 M&Ms you select, 3 of them are orange, how many M&Ms would
you estimate are in the giant bag?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

800 M &Ms

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can operate on the estimate that the proportion of M&Ms of the sample is equal to the proportion of M&Ms in the giant bag.

Therefore,

number of orange M&Ms in sample / sample size = number of orange M&Ms in bag / bag size

3/50 = 48 / bag size

multiply both sides by 50 to remove a denominator

3  = 48 * 50 / bag size

multiply both sides by bag size to remove the other denominator

3 * bag size = 48 * 50

divide both sides by 3 to isolate bag size

bag size = 48 * 50 / 3

bag size  = 800 M &Ms

please help me i will give 20 points for this question ​

Answers

Answer:

1. a. 2

b. -½

c. y - 3 = -½(x - 8) => point-slope form

y = -½x + 7 => slope-intercept form

2. a. -1

b. 1

c. y - 5 = 1(x - 3) => point-slope form

y = x + 2 => slope-intercept form

Step-by-step explanation:

1. (8, 3) and (10, 7):

a. The gradient for the line joining the points:

Gradient = [tex] \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} [/tex]

Let,

[tex] (8, 3) = (x_1, y_1) [/tex]

[tex] (10, 7) = (x_2, y_2) [/tex]

Plug in the values

Gradient = [tex] \frac{7 - 3}{10 - 8} [/tex]

Gradient = [tex] \frac{4}{2} [/tex]

Gradient = 2

b. The gradient of the line perpendicular to this line = the negative reciprocal of 2

Negative reciprocal of 2 = -½

c. The equation of perpendicular line if it passes through the first point, (8, 3):

Equation of the perpendicular line in point-slope form can be expressed as y - b = m(x - a).

Where,

(a, b) = (8, 3)

Slope (m) = -½

Substitute (a, b) = (8, 3), and m = -½ into the point-slope equation, y - b = m(x - a).

Thus:

y - 3 = -½(x - 8) => point-slope form

We cam also express the equation of the perpendicular line in slope-intercept form by rewriting y - 3 = -½(x - 8) in the form of y = mx + b:

Thus:

y - 3 = -½(x - 8)

y - 3 = -½x + 4

y - 3 + 3 = -½x + 4 + 3

y = -½x + 7

2. (3, 5) and (4, 4):

a. The gradient for the line joining the points:

Gradient = [tex] \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} [/tex]

Let,

[tex] (3, 5) = (x_1, y_1) [/tex]

[tex] (4, 4) = (x_2, y_2) [/tex]

Plug in the values

Gradient = [tex] \frac{4 - 5}{4 - 3} [/tex]

Gradient = [tex] \frac{-1}{1} [/tex]

Gradient = -1

b. The gradient of the line perpendicular to this line = the negative reciprocal of -1

Negative reciprocal of -1 = 1

c. The equation of perpendicular line if it passes through the first point, (3, 5):

Equation of the perpendicular line in point-slope form can be expressed as y - b = m(x - a).

Where,

(a, b) = (3, 5)

Slope (m) = 1

Substitute (a, b) = (3, 5), and m = 1 into the point-slope equation, y - b = m(x - a).

Thus:

y - 5 = 1(x - 3) => point-slope form

We can also express the equation of the perpendicular line in slope-intercept form by rewriting y - 5 = 1(x - 3) in the form of y = mx + b:

Thus:

y - 5 = 1(x - 3)

y - 5 = x - 3

y - 5 + 5 = x - 3 + 5

y = x + 2

I need to solve for x first then c

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x = -6.5c[/tex]

[tex]c = -\frac{x}{6.5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In both cases, you are simply isolating the variable you are trying to solve for:

[tex]\frac{-x}{c} = 6.5[/tex]

Solve for x. Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. First, multiply c to both sides, and then divide -1 from both sides:

[tex]\frac{-x}{c} = 6.5\\\frac{-x}{c} * c = 6.5 * c\\-x = 6.5c\\\frac{-x}{-1} = \frac{6.5c}{-1}\\x = -6.5c[/tex]

Solve for c. Isolate the variable, c. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Multiply -1/x to both sides of the equation:

[tex]\frac{-x}{c} = 6.5\\\frac{-x}{c}(c)) = 6.5(c) \\-x = 6.5c\\\frac{-x}{6.5} = \frac{6.5c}{6.5}\\c = -\frac{x}{6.5}[/tex]

Answer:

x = -6.5c

-x/6.5 = c

Step-by-step explanation:

-x/c=6.5

Multiply each side by -c

-x/c * -c=6.5*-c

x = -6.5c

-x/c=6.5

Multiply each side by c

-x/c *c=6.5*c

-x = 6.5c

Divide each side by 6.5

-x/6.5 = 6.5c/6.5

-x/6.5 = c

Write an equation in standard form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope (-8,0); m= -4 PLEASE HELP NEED DONE ASAP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

Answers

Answer:

4x+y=-32

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

slope (m) = -4

point: (-8,0)

as we know the slope intercept form of the line is, y=mx+b, b=y-mx, now we put x=-8, y=0 to find b [because the point is given (-8,0) so it must satisfy the equation]

so,

b = 0-(-4)×(-8) = -32

y=mx+b

or, y=-4x-32

or, 4x+y=-32

(this is the standard form of the line)

Using the equation y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 0 = -4(x - (-8))

y = -4(x + 8)

y = -4x - 32

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance from an exterior point to the incircle is equal to the tangent length in both cases.

So the 19 is made up of 9 and 10.

The length of the other portion of the tangent from the end of 19 to the tangent point on the right is also 10.

By a similar argument the lower length of the line to the tangent point is 11.

So you have

9 + 9 + 10 + 10 + 11 + 11

18 + 20 + 22 = 60.

Solve the square of this equation with explanation as I don’t understand please

Answers

Answer: The two solutions are x = -4 and x = -6

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

Explanation:

Cut the x coefficient (10) in half to get 10/2 = 5. Then square this to get 5^2 = 25.

We'll add 1 to both sides so that the "24" turns into "25", thereby completing the square

x^2 + 10x + 24 = 0

x^2 + 10x + 24+1 = 0+1

x^2 + 10x + 25 = 1

Notice on the left hand side we have something of the form A^2+2AB+B^2 where A = x and B = 5. We can factor this into (A+B)^2, which is the whole reason why we completed the square. You can use the FOIL rule to see how (A+B)^2 expands out into A^2+2AB+B^2. Factoring reverses this process.

This means x^2+10x+25 factors to (x+5)^2 and we now have these steps

(x+5)^2 = 1

x+5 = sqrt(1) or x+5 = -sqrt(1)

x+5 = 1 or x+5 = -1

x = 1-5 or x = -1-5

x = -4 or x = -6 are the two solutions

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

Let's check x = -4 to see if it works or not

x^2 + 10x + 24 = 0

(-4)^2 + 10(-4) + 24 = 0

16 - 40 + 24 = 0

-24 + 24 = 0

0 = 0

We get a true equation. That confirms x = -4 is a solution.

If we tried x = -6, then,

x^2 + 10x + 24 = 0

(-6)^2 + 10(-6) + 24 = 0

36 - 60 + 24 = 0

-24 + 24 = 0

0 = 0

That x value is confirmed as well.

The angle made by the ladder with the ground is degrees, and the length of the ladder is inches.

Answers

Answer:

59.04°

58.31 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution triangle is attached below :

Since we have a right angled triangle, we can apply trigonometry to obtain the angle ladder makes with the ground;

Let the angle = θ

Tanθ = opposite / Adjacent

Tanθ = 50/30

θ = tan^-1(50/30)

θ = 59.036°

θ = 59.04°

The length of ladder can be obtained using Pythagoras :

Length of ladder is the hypotenus :

Hence,

Hypotenus = √(adjacent² + opposite²)

Hypotenus = √(50² + 30²)

Hypotenus = √(2500 + 900)

Hypotenus = 58.309

Length of ladder = 58.31 inches

Answer:

59°

58.3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the full question :

A ladder is placed 30 inches from a wall. It touches the wall at a height of 50 inches from the ground. The angle made by the ladder with the ground is degrees, and the length of the ladder is inches.

Please check the attached image for a diagram explaining this question

The angle the ladder makes with the ground is labelled x in the diagram

To find the value of x given the opposite and adjacent lengths, use tan

tan⁻¹ (opposite / adjacent)

tan⁻¹  (50 / 30)

tan⁻¹ 1.667

= 59°

the length of the ladder can be determined using Pythagoras theorem

The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²

where a = length

b = base

c =  hypotenuse

√(50² + 30²)

√(2500 + 900)

(1) 12.9 (2) 13.9
(3) 14.9
(4) 15.9

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given most of the equation that you need to solve. To find the number of years it will take to have 2000, sub in 2000 for A and solve:

[tex]2000=1000(1.0512)^t[/tex] and begin by dividing away the 1000 on both sides to get

[tex]2=(1.0512)^t[/tex] now we have to take the natural log of both sides:

[tex]ln(2)=ln(1.0512)^t[/tex]. Taking the natural log allows us to bring the t down out front:

ln(2) = t ln(1.0512) and now divide both sides by ln(1.0512):

[tex]\frac{ln(2)}{ln(1.0512)}=t[/tex] and do this on your calculator to get

t = 13.9 years

Answer:

T = 13.9

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 1,000 · 1.0512^T

Let A = 2000

2000 = 1,000 · 1.0512^T

Divide each side by 1000

2000/1000 =  1,000/1000 · 1.0512^T

2 =  1.0512^T

Take the log of each side

log 2 =  log 1.0512^T

We know log a^b = b log a

log 2 =  T log 1.0512

Divide each side by log 1.0512

log 2 / log 1.0512 = T

T=13.88172

Rounding to the nearest tenth

T = 13.9
