Mary can paint a house 12 hours. if Nancy helps, it takes them 2 hours. without help, how long would it take Nancy to complete the same job?

Answers

i would say it takes Nancy 10 hours

Final answer:

To find out how long it will take Nancy to paint the house alone, we calculate her work rate by subtracting Mary's rate from their combined rate. This gives us Nancy's work rate as 5/12 of a house per hour, which means Nancy would take 2.4 hours to paint the house by herself.

Explanation:

To determine how long it would take Nancy to paint the house by herself, we can set up an equation based on the rates of work done by Mary and Nancy together, and by Mary alone. We know that Mary can paint a house in 12 hours, so her work rate is 1/12 of a house per hour. When Nancy helps, together they can paint the house in 2 hours, so their combined work rate is 1/2 of a house per hour.

To find Nancy's work rate, we set up the equation:
1/12 + 1/N = 1/2

Now, we solve for N (Nancy's time to paint the house alone):
1/N = 1/2 - 1/12
1/N = 6/12 - 1/12
1/N = 5/12
N = 12/5
N = 2.4 hours

Therefore, it would take Nancy 2.4 hours to complete the same job by herself.

The table represents a function.
x: -1, 2, 3, 5
y: 0, 3, 4, 6
Complete the statement by selecting from the drop-down menu. The rate of change in the function y=2x+5 is (ANSWERS: greater than, less than, or equal to) the rate of change of the function represented in the table.
Which of the answers listed above is the CORRECT answer?

Answers

Answer:

Greater than

Step-by-step explanation:

The function y=2x+5 is written in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b, where m is the slope (rate of change) and b is the y-intercept.  The slope in this function is 2.

The slope of the function in the table is given by the formula for slope:

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

Using the first two points, we have

m = (3-0)/(2--1) = 3/3 = 1

The rate of change is 1.  This is less than the first function, which means the rate of change of the function y=2x+5 is greater than the slope in the table.

The rate of change of  y=2x+5 is 2 which is greater than the rate of change in the table which is 1.

What is the rate of change?

The rate of change is the change of a quantity over 1 unit of another quantity.

Most of the time the rate of change is the change with respect to time.

As per the given function,

y = 2x + 5

The slope-intercept form is given as, y = mx + c here m is the slope.

By comparing, slope = 2

As per the given table,

Slope = (difference in y's coordinate)/(difference in x's coordinate)

Slope = (3 - 0)/(2 - (-1)) = 3/3 = 1

Thus, slope of function is greater then the table.

Hence "Y=2x+5's rate of change is 2, which is higher than the table's rate of change of 1".

How do I work out the gradient of lines on a graph in the simplest way possible? BBC Bitesize just confused me even more XD

Answers

Okay, so take two points on the line on the graph, say they're (-2, 4) and (3, -2). The equation for working out the gradient is (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1), and all that means, is you do the y value in the second coordinate (-2) minus the y value in the first coordinate (4), and divide it by the x value in the second coordinate (3) minus the x value in the first coordinate (-2). In this example, you would write it as (-2 - 4)/(3 - 2), and then you can simplify it -6/1, so your gradient for this example would be -6. I've tried to explain it as best I can but let me know if you're still confused :)

Now subtract the fractions. 
Multiply 7/50 by two and get 14/100 take a whole number and make it a fraction. so now you have 114/100. Subtract 53/100. 
114/100-53/100=61/100
Since we stole one from the whole number it means there is 125 instead of 126.

A chef had to fill up 4/5 of a container with mash potatoes. He ended up using 2 4/6 pounds of mashed potatoes. How many pounds would he need to fill the container all the way

Answers

3 and one third

3 1/3

Answer: He would need [tex]3\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex] pounds to fill the container all the way.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Fraction of mashed potatoes he had to fill up a container = [tex]\dfrac{4}{5}[/tex]

Fraction of mashed potatoes he ended up using = [tex]2\dfrac{4}{6}=2\dfrac{2}{3}=\dfrac{8}{3}[/tex]

So, we need to find the number of pounds that he would need to fill the container all the way.

So, number of pounds would be

[tex]\dfrac{8}{3}\div \dfrac{4}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{8}{3}\times \dfrac{5}{4}\\\\=\dfrac{10}{3}\\\\=3\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]

Hence, he would need [tex]3\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex] pounds to fill the container all the way.

Answers

If Bryan wants to make $2000 dollars then he needs to solve this equation:

2000=500+150x
-500   -500

1500=150x   divide by 150 on both sides

x=10

10 cars
  

Answer:

He need to sell atleast 10 car to make atleast $2000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Bryan sells cars. He makes a salary of $500 a week, plus $150 for every car he sells. This week, he wants to make at least $2000.

To find :  How many cars does he need to sell, Write an equation and solve.

Solution : He makes a salary = $500 per week .

     He gets for every car sell =  $ 150.

Let us consider the number of cars he need to sell = x.

Total cost for x car = $150 * x.

According to question  he wants to make atleast = $2000.

We will use" greater than or equal to "sign for atleast then equation become:

150x + 500 [tex]\geq[/tex] 2000.

Now, we need to solve the inequality for x :

On subtracting by 500 both sides

150x  [tex]\geq[/tex] 2000 -500.

150x  [tex]\geq[/tex] 1500.

On dividing by 150 both sides ,

x  [tex]\geq[/tex] 10.

Therefore, he need to sell atleast 10 car to make atleast $2000.

The table below shows some properties of regular polygons.



When compared with the independent variable, how many of the remaining three columns represent a linear relationship?

A. 0
B. 1
C. 2
D. 3

Answers

Answer: C.2


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Independent variable= Number of sides

To check how many of the remaining three columns represent a linear relationship, we need to check the rate of change of the three columns with respect to dependent variable.

For number of diagonals

The rate of change of diagonals w.r.t number of sides is constant and that is 1.

For Sum of all interior angles (degrees)

The rate of change of  Sum of all interior angles w.r.t number of sides is constant and that is 180°.

For measure of each angle (degrees)

The rate of change of  measure of each angle w.r.t number of sides is not constant and that is 180°.

Since for vertices 3 , measure of angle=60

vertices 4 , measure of angle=90

From vertices 3 to 4 change in measure of angle is 30

vertices 5 , measure of angle=108

From vertices 4 to 5 change in measure of angle is 18

Thus number of diagonals and Sum of all interior angles are the columns represent a linear relationship when compared with the independent variable.

Therefore there are 2 columns represent a linear relationship when compared with the independent variable.

Solution:

The equation of linear relationship is , y= k x

That is, [tex]\frac{y-value}{x-value}=k({\text{a constant})[/tex]

As, you can see that , ratio of

1.

[tex]\frac{\text{Sum of interior angles of a regular polygon}}{\text{number of sides of that polygon}}={\text{Measure of each interior angle of regular polygon}}[/tex]

2. Also, as number of sides increases, the smallest regular polygon is equilateral triangle(3 sides) , having 0, diagonal, the number of diagonal increases by 1.

→→Regular polygon having sides , n≥3=k, where k is number of diagonals=0,1,2,3,4,[ For example, for, n=3,k=1,n=4, k=2,...]

Column (2)

[tex]C_{4}-C_{3}=C_{3}-C_{2}=C_{2}-C_{1}=1[/tex]

Column (4)

[tex]C_{2}-C_{1}=90-60=30\\\\ C_{3}-C_{2}=108-90=18\\\\ C_{4}-C_{3}=120-108=12[/tex]

Column (3)

[tex]C_{4}-C_{3}=720-540=180\\\\ C_{3}-C_{2}=540-360=180\\\\ C_{2}-C_{1}=360-180=180[/tex]

In, Column (2) and Column(3) the difference between two consecutive values is same, while in column (4) difference between two consecutive values is not same.So, C(2) and C(3) shows linear relationship, column (4) do not.

Option (C) 2 is Right choice.

Answers

He will have to take out 20 hectograms in order to meet the weight limit.

Answer: 20 hg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Alonzo's suitcase can weigh no more than 20 kilograms if he wants to take it on the airplane without paying a fee.

⇒ [tex]x\leq200hg[/tex]

Since, the weight of his suitcase is 220 hg.

The amount of weight will Alanzo have to take out of his suitcase to meet the weight limit will be :-

For this you would use the normal y=mx+b formula. You have a total of 1500 dollars in your account so that would be your constant or your b. Your m or your slope is rise over run. To find this you would add what is taken out each time, so you would add 60 and 3 and that would be your rise y to get 63. Your run would be the number of times or x and that is one inbetween each time. Put those together to get 63/1 and make it negative because it is subtracting that amount each time making m be -63/1. that makes your equation y=-63/1x+1500.

Which rational numbers is not equivalent to the others. 75%,3/4,0.75,7/50

Answers

7/50 is not equal to any of the other answers 
Final answer:

The rational number 7/50 is not equivalent to the other numbers listed (75%, 3/4, 0.75) as it converts to a decimal value of 0.14, which is distinct from 0.75.

Explanation:

The question asks which rational number is not equivalent to the others: 75%, 3/4, 0.75, or 7/50. To determine this, we can convert all the numbers to a common format, such as decimals or fractions, and compare their values.

First, 75% is equivalent to 0.75, as percent means "per hundred," so 75% is 75 per 100, which can be written as 75/100 and simplified to 3/4 or 0.75. Next, 3/4 is exactly 0.75 when converted to a decimal. This means that these three are equivalent to each other.

However, 7/50 is a different case. When we convert 7/50 to a decimal, we get 0.14, which is evidently different from 0.75. Therefore, 7/50 is not equivalent to the other rational numbers listed.
