A class student council election was held on Monday and 15 of the 20 students decided to vote. On Tuesday, another election was held, but only 16 students were in the class that day. Use the ratio of students who voted in Monday's election to the total number of students in class on Monday to predict the number of students who voted in Tuesday's election.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 15/20 students voted in the StuCo election on the first go around.

Using this ratio for 16 student is as simple as multiplying 15/20 by 16

(15/20)*16=12

Answer 2

Based on the voting ratio of 3:4 from Monday's election, we predict that 12 out of the 16 students present on Tuesday voted.

The question asks to predict the number of students who voted in Tuesday's election based on the ratio of students who voted on Monday. On Monday, 15 out of 20 students voted, which establishes a voting ratio of 15:20, or 3:4 when simplified. To predict Tuesday's voter turnout, we apply this ratio to the 16 students present on Tuesday.

Using the simplified ratio of 3:4, for every 4 students, 3 vote. Since 16 students were in class on Tuesday:

Divide 16 by 4 to find how many groups of 4 there are, which is 4.Multiply the number of groups (4) by the number of voters per group (3), which equals 12.

Therefore, we predict that 12 students voted in Tuesday's election.

Kim is making a bouquet for her friend. She used x tulips and some daffodils in the bouquet. The number of daffodils is equal to the square root of the number of tulips. If the total number of flowers in the bouquet is 20, find the number of tulips.

5
16
20
4

Answers

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

So the number of tulips (t) plus the number of daffodils (d) should equal up to 20. So if we write that as an equation, it would t + d = 20. So now we have to find what two numbers could add up to 20, but let's not forget that the number of daffodils is equal to the square root of the number of tulips.

So now we have to find a number when added to its square root is 20. So going by process of elimination, you can eliminate 5 because the square root of that is a decimal and 5 plus a decimal isn't going to add up to 20. You know you can eliminate 20 because it already reaches the limit with the number of tulips, not allowing enough room for daffodils. You can eliminate 4 because the square root of that is 2, and 4 + 2 = 6, not 20.

So that leaves 16... The square root of 16 is 4, because 4 divided by itself twice equals 16. Now, let's add them and see if it equals 20. 16 tulips + 4 daffodils = 20. So 16 is your answer.

Sorry I am bad at explaining things, but I hope this helps anyway!

Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

She used x tulips and some daffodils in the bouquet.

The number of daffodils is equal to the square root of the number of tulips.

[tex]\texttt{Number of daffodils = }\sqrt{x}[/tex]

The total number of flowers in the bouquet is 20

That is

             [tex]x+\sqrt{x}=20[/tex]

Solving

         [tex]x+\sqrt{x}=20\\\\\sqrt{x}=20-x\\\\x=(20-x)^2\\\\x=400-40x+x^2\\\\x^2-41x+400=0\\\\(x-25)(x-16)=0\\\\\texttt{x=25 or x = 16}[/tex]

Total number is less than 20 so 25 is not possible

Number of tulips used = 16

Option B is the correct answer.

Which of the following histograms would best be approximated by a normal distribution?

Answers

Answer:

Choice B is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The normal distribution has extensive applications in statistics. The distribution is characterized by a symmetric bell-shaped density curve. Most of the observations or data points fall in the middle of the distribution while both the right and left tails are equally longer.

The histogram that can be approximated by a normal distribution must meet the above conditions.

The histogram in alternative A is skewed to the right since most of the values fall in the lower end of the distribution. A skewed distribution is not symmetric.

The histogram in choice C is approximately uniformly distributed since most of the observed values have an approximately equal frequency. Each of the values is approximately equally likely. The uniform distribution is not symmetric.

The histogram in D follows no know pattern and nevertheless it lacks the symmetric property.

The histogram in B is approximately symmetric in distribution since most of the observed data values fall in the middle of the distribution while the left and right tails are nearly equal. This histogram can thus be approximated by a normal distribution.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{f(x) - g(x) = 2x(2x^{2} + x + 1)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 9x³ + 2x² - 5x + 4; g(x)=5x³ -7x + 4

Step 1. Calculate the difference between the functions

(a) Write the two functions, one above the other, in decreasing order of exponents.

ƒ(x) = 9x³ + 2x² - 5x + 4

g(x) = 5x³           - 7x + 4

(b) Create a subtraction problem using the two functions

        ƒ(x) =    9x³ + 2x² - 5x + 4

      -g(x) =  -(5x³           - 7x + 4)

ƒ(x) -g(x)=

(c). Subtract terms with the same exponent of x

        ƒ(x)   =    9x³ + 2x² - 5x + 4

      -g(x)  =   -(5x³          -  7x + 4)

ƒ(x) -g(x) =      4x³ + 2x² + 2x

Step 2. Factor the expression

y = 4x³ + 2x² + 2x

Factor 2x from each term

y = 2x(2x² + x + 1)

[tex]\boxed{f(x) - g(x) = 2x(2x^{2} + x + 1)}[/tex]

For this case we must find the inverse of the following function:

[tex]f (x) = 8 \sqrt {x}[/tex]

For this, we follow the steps below:

We change f (x) to y:

[tex]y = 8 \sqrt {x}[/tex]

We exchange the variables:

[tex]x = 8 \sqrt {y}[/tex]

We solve for y:

[tex]8 \sqrt {y} = x[/tex]

We divide between 8 on both sides of the equation:

[tex]\sqrt {y} = \frac {x} {8}[/tex]

We raise both sides of the equation to the square to remove the root:

[tex]y = (\frac {x} {8}) ^ 2\\y = \frac {x ^ 2} {64}[/tex]

So, the inverse is:[tex]f ^ {- 1} (x) = \frac {x ^ 2} {64}[/tex]

x / 2.25 seconds = 28 times / 12 seconds

multiply by sides by 2.25 seconds

x / 2.25 seconds * 2.25 seconds = 28 times / 12 seconds * 2.25 second

x = 2.3333333  times/ second * 2.25 seconds

x = 5.8333

Answer:

315 times

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the friend can clap his hands 28 times in 12 seconds. First, we need to know how many times can he clap his hands in 1 second:

To do it we have to divide the times he can clap his hands by the time in seconds:

28/12 = 2.333333

He can clap his hands 2.333333 times in 1 second:

Now we want to know how many times will he clap his hands in 2.25 minutes

We have to change 2.25 minutes into seconds:

1 (minute) = 60 (seconds in 1 minute)

2.25 (minutes) * 60 (seconds in 1 minute) = 135 seconds

After we get the seconds he is going to clap his hands, we have to multiply the times he claps times the seconds:

2.3333333 times * 135 seconds = 315

315 times in 2.25 minutes

Find the area of the composite figure and round the nearest tenth

Answers

Answer:

The area of the composite figure is 1360 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you should split up the composite figure into separate shapes.

So to find area of the triangle all the way on the left, you multiply base x height then divide by 2.

30 x 34 = 1020 ÷ 2 = 520.

Then, moving on to next shape, we can break up the trapezoid into a rectangle and a triangle.

To find area of the rectangle you multiply length x width.

16 x 30 = 480.

Finally, we have the last triangle right above the rectangle. Keep in mind that the rectangle does not have a length of 40!

You have to subtract 40 - 16 which equals 24.

30 x 24 = 720 ÷ 2 = 360.

Now that we have all 3 numbers, we simply add them all together and you will get an answer of 1360 ft.

Remember to label your answer!

Answer:

1080 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a composite figure that consists of a triangle and a trapezoid.

We know that the area of these two shapes is given by the following formulas so we will put in the given values to get:

Area of triangle = [tex]\frac{1}{2} \times b \times h[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2} \times 16 \times 30[/tex] = 240 ft^2

Area of trapezoid = [tex]\frac{a+b}{2} h[/tex] = [tex]\frac{16+40}{2} 30[/tex] = 840 ft^2

Area of composite figure = [tex]240+840[/tex] = 1080 ft^2

Can the numbers 24, 32, 40 be the lengths of the three sides of a right triangle? Explain why or why not.

Answers

Answer:

24, 32, 40 can be the lengths of the three sides of a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras theorem:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

40^2 = 1,600

32^2 + 24^2 = 1024 + 576 = 1,600

If the square of the length of the hypotenuse (longest side length)  is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides then it's a right triangle

So

40^2 = 32^2 + 24^2

1,600 = 1,600

24, 32, 40 can be the lengths of the three sides of a right triangle

Replacing(Substituting) x = 6 in above equation we get:

[tex]f(6)=\frac{3}{2} (6) -\frac{1}{2}\\\\f(6)=9-\frac{1}{2}\\\\ f(6)=\frac{18}{2}-\frac{1}{2}\\\\ f(6)=\frac{17}{2}\\\\ f(6)=8\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Thus, 1st option gives the correct answer.

Answer:

The correct answer is option 1

8 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

f(x) = 3x/2 - 1/2

We have to find f(x) when x = 6

To find the value of f(6)

we have, f(x) = 3x/2 - 1/2

when x = 6

f(x) = f(6)

f(6) = (3 * 6)/2 - 1/2

 = 18/2 - 1/2

 = (18 - 1)/2 = 17/2

 = 8 1/2

Therefore the correct answer is first option

They can be harmed in many different ways. One way is when careless boaters drive in shallow waters. Many divers hurt reefs by touching them. Hotel building near the reefs is also very harmful. So is the waste that some people dump into the ocean.6Its very important for people to protect coral reefs. The reefs we have today started to grow thousands of years ago. It would take a long time for them to grow back if they were destroyed. Scientists who study the reefs try to learn more and more about how they work. The information they learn will help us keep the reefs safe for years to come.
