Anna bought 10 oranges
Explanation:
Let x denote the number of apples.
Let y denote the number of oranges.
The system of equations can be written as
[tex]x+y=25[/tex] and [tex]2x+3y=60[/tex]
Let us solve the equation by substitution method.
Thus, from [tex]x+y=25[/tex], the value of y can be determined such that [tex]y=25-x[/tex]
Using the y value [tex]y=25-x[/tex] in the equation [tex]2x+3y=60[/tex], we get,
[tex]2x+3(25-x)=60[/tex]
Multiplying 3 within the bracket,
[tex]2x+75-3x=60[/tex]
Adding the terms,
[tex]75-x=60[/tex]
Subtracting both sides by 75, we have,
[tex]x=15[/tex]
Thus, substituting [tex]x=15[/tex] in [tex]y=25-x[/tex], we get,
[tex]y=25-15\\y=10[/tex]
Thus, Anna get 10 Oranges.
How many lines of symmetry does a regular heptagon have? Explain your answer
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
Regular polygons have the same number of lines of symmetry as they do sides.
Polygons with an even number of sides have a line of symmetry for each pair of opposite vertices, as well as a line of symmetry through midpoints of opposite sides.
Polygons with an odd number of sides have a line of symmetry for each vertex, passing through the midpoint of the opposite side.
A heptagon has 7 vertices, and therefore has 7 lines of symmetry.

At Joe's Pizza a 16 inch diameter pizza and a 12-inch-diameter pizza cost the same per square inch of top surface area. If the cost of a large pizza is 9.60, what is the cost, in dollars, of the small pizza?
Answer:
5.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface area of the large 16 in diameter pizza is
[tex]A = \pi(d/2)^2 = \pi8^2 = 64\pi[/tex]
Cost per unit surface area is
[tex]c = \frac{9.6}{64\pi} = \frac{0.15}{\pi}[/tex]
Surface area of the small 12-in diameter pizza is
[tex]a = \pi(12/2)^2 = \pi6^2 = 36\pi[/tex]
So the total cost for that much surface area of pizza is
[tex]ac = 36\pi*\frac{0.15}{\pi} = 5.4[/tex]

If Alex and Brandon work together, they will finish cleaning the school in 15 hours. Working alone, Brandon can finish the same job in 20 hours. How long will it take Alex to do the job by himself?
Answer:
Alex can do the job in 60 days alone.
Step-by-step explanation:
Alex and Brandon working together, they can finish the job of cleaning the school in 15 hours. Brandon alone in 20 hours can finish the job.
So, Brandon can complete [tex]\frac{1}{20}[/tex] part of the job in one hour.
Let, Alex alone can finish the same job in x hours.
So, Alex can complete [tex]\frac{1}{x}[/tex] part of the job in one hour.
So, working together they do [tex](\frac{1}{20} + \frac{1}{x}) = \frac{x + 20}{20x}[/tex] part of the whole job in one hour.
Hence, from the conditions given we can write
[tex]\frac{x + 20}{20x} = \frac{1}{15}[/tex]
⇒ 15x + 300 = 20x
⇒ 5x = 300
⇒ x = 60 days.
Therefore, Alex can do the job in 60 days alone. (Answer)
An isosceles triangle has exactly two sides that are equal in length (congruent). If the base (the third side) measures 46 inches and the perimeter is 119 inches, find the length of the two congruent sides, called legs.
Answer:
36.5 Inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of the triangle is the sum of all three(3) sides.
let the length of one congruent side be 'a', Therefore;
a + a + 46 = 119
2a = 119 - 46
a = 73/2
a = 36.5 inches.
The CEO of a large electric utility company claims that 80 percent of his 1,000,000 customers are very satisfied with the service they receive. To test this claim, the local newspaper surveyed 100 customers, using simple random sampling. After performing the appropriate statistical test, they find the p-value to be 0.894. What conclusion can we make?
Answer:
Conclusion: The proportion of customers satisfied with the service they receive from the large electric utility company is different from 80%, the claim made by the CEO.
Step-by-step explanation:
To test the claim made by the CEO of a large electric utility company the newspaper must conduct a hypothesis test for one proportion.
Assumption:
The significance level (α) of the test can be assumed to be 5%.
Hypothesis:
[tex]H_{0}:[/tex] The proportion of customers satisfied with the service they receive is 0.80, i.e. [tex]p=0.80[/tex]
[tex]H_{a}:[/tex] The proportion of customers satisfied with the service they receive is different from 0.80, i.e. [tex]p\neq 0.80[/tex]
Decision Rule:
If the p-value of the test is less than the significance level (α) then the null hypothesis may be rejected. But if the p-value is more than the significance level (α) then we cannot reject the null hypothesis.
Test Statistics:
As the sample size is large, i.e.n = 100 > 30, then according to the central limit theorem sampling distribution of sample proportion will follow the normal distribution.
The test statistic used is:
[tex]z=\frac{\hat p-p}{\frac{\sqrt{p(1-p)}} {n} }[/tex]
Given:
The p-value of the hypothesis test is computed to be 0.894.
That is:
[tex]p-value=0.894>\alpha =0.05[/tex]
This implies that we fail to reject the null hypothesis at 5% level of significance.
Conclusion:
The null hypothesis was failed to be rejected at 5% level of significance.
Thus, concluding that the proportion of customers satisfied with the service they receive from the large electric utility company is different from 80%, the claim made by the CEO.
A street lamp casts a shadow 31.5 feet long, while an 8 foot-tall street sign casts a shadow of 14 feet long. What is the length and height of the lamp?
Answer:
The answer to your question is the height of the lamp is 18.2 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Street lamp shadow = 31.5 ft
Street sign height = 8 ft
Street sign shadow = 14 ft
Street lamp height = x
Process
1.- To find the height of the lamp use proportions. In this kind of problem, we do not look for the length, but the shadow.
Street lamp height/street lamp shadow = street sign height/street sign
shadow
Substitution
x / 31.5 = 8 / 14
Solve for x
x = (31.5)(8) / 14
Simplification
x = 254.4 / 14
Result
x = 18.2 ft
To find the length and height of the lamp, set up proportions using the shadow lengths and given values, then solve for the lamp height and length based on the information provided.

The graph shows the distance y, in centimeters, a pendulum moves to the right (positive displacement) and to the left (negative displacement), for a given number of seconds x.
How many seconds are required for the pendulum to swing from its position furthest to the right to its position furthest to the left?
Time required for the pendulum to swing from its position furthest to the right to its position furthest to the left: 1.25 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
A pendulum is a system consisting of a rod/string connected to a mass which is left free to oscillate back and forth around its equilibrium position, straight vertical.
The period of a pendulum is the time the pendulum takes to complete one full oscillation, that means it is the time the pendulum takes to go from its furthest position on the left to the same position again. It is calculated as
[tex]T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}[/tex]
where L is the length of the pendulum and g the acceleration of gravity.
The figure in this problem represents the position of the pendulum. We observe that the time it takes for the pendulum to do one complete oscillation is 2.5 seconds.
The time it takes for the pendulum to swing from its position furthest to the right to its position furthest to the left is half the period: therefore, it is

The average radius of Jupiter is 4.34 x 10^4 miles. The average sun radius of the sun is 4.32 x 10^5. How many times greater is the average radius of the sun?
Answer:
The average radius of sun is approximately 9.95 times the average radius of Jupiter.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
Average radius of Jupiter =
[tex]4.34\times 10^{4}\text{ miles}[/tex]
Average radius of the sun =
[tex]4.32\times 10^{5}[/tex]
Relation between average radius of sun and average radius of Jupiter =
[tex]\displaystyle\frac{\text{Average radius of Sun}}{\text{Average radius of Jupiter}}\\\\= \frac{4.32\times 10^{5}}{4.34\times 10^{4}}\\\\\displaystyle\frac{\text{Average radius of Sun}}{\text{Average radius of Jupiter}} = 9.953917\\\\\text{Average radius of Sun} \approx 9.95\times \text{(Average radius of Jupiter)}[/tex]
Thus, the average radius of sun is approximately 9.95 times the average radius of Jupiter.
To determine how many times greater the Sun's radius is compared to Jupiter, divide the Sun's radius (695,700 km) by Jupiter's radius (71,400 km), resulting in the Sun being approximately 9.75 times greater than Jupiter in size.
Explanation:The question asks how many times greater the average radius of the Sun is compared to that of Jupiter. To find this, we will divide the Sun's radius by Jupiter's radius. The radius of Jupiter is given as 71,400 km, while the radius of the Sun is much larger at 695,700 km.
Calculating the ratio, we get:
Radius of the Sun / Radius of Jupiter = 695,700 km / 71,400 km.This simplifies to approximately 9.745.Therefore, the average radius of the Sun is roughly 9.75 times greater than that of Jupiter.
What is the repulsive force between two pith balls that are 13.0 cm apart and have equal charges of −24.0 nC?
Answer:
The repulsive force is [tex]3.067\times10^{-4}N[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
The coulomb's law to calculate the repulsive force: [tex]F=\frac{kQ_1Q_2}{r^2}[/tex]
Where the value of k is 9.00×10⁹ Nm²/C²
Substitute the respective values in the above formula.
[tex]F=\frac{9\times10^9\frac{N\cdot m^2}{c^2} \times(-24\times10^{-9}C)^2}{[(13 cm)(\frac{1m}{100cm} )]^2}[/tex]
[tex]F=\frac{9\times10^9\frac{N\cdot m^2}{c^2} \times(-24\times10^{-9}C)^2}{(0.13 m)^2}[/tex]
[tex]F\approx0.0003067N[/tex]
[tex]F=3.067\times10^{-4}N[/tex]
Hence, the repulsive force is [tex]3.067\times10^{-4}N[/tex].
Nathan is building a model of his father sailboat with a scale factor of 1/32 The actual sale is in the shape of a right triangle with a base of 8 m and a hypotenuse of 13 m what will be the approximate perimeter of the sale on the model boat
Answer:
Perimeter of the model is approximately 1 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Scale factor = [tex]\frac{1}{32}[/tex]
Actual base length of the sailboat (b) = 8 m
Actual hypotenuse length of the sailboat (h) = 13 m
Using Pythagoras theorem, we can find the third side of the right angled sailboat. Let the third side be 'l' m. So,
[tex]h^2=b^2+l^2\\\\13^2=8^2+l^2\\\\l^2=169-64\\\\l=\sqrt{105}=10.25\ m[/tex]
Now, actual perimeter of the sailboat = Sum of all the 3 sides
Actual perimeter = 13 m + 8 m + 10.25 m = 31.25 m
Now, we know that,
Scale factor = Model dimensions ÷ Actual dimensions
So, in terms of perimeter,
Scale factor = Model perimeter ÷ Actual perimeter
[tex]\frac{1}{32}=\frac{Model\ perimeter}{31.25}\\\\Model\ perimeter=\frac{31.25}{32}=0.97\approx1\ m[/tex]
So, perimeter of the model is approximately 1 m.
A ball is thrown 178 m upward and then falls back to earth. Neglecting air resistance, how long will it be in the air? The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 .
After calculating the initial velocity with which the ball was thrown upwards, the time taken for the ball to reach its peak and fall back to earth was calculated to be approximately 38 seconds.
Explanation:In order to find out how long the ball will be in the air, we are essentially dealing with an example of free fall in Physics. When the ball reaches its maximum height, its velocity will be zero and it will have spent a certain amount of time t to reach there. But the total time it will be in the air is twice this amount, as it will take the same amount of time to go up and come back down.
Using the second equation of motion, v = u + gt (where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, g = acceleration due to gravity and t = time), when the ball reaches maximum height, its final velocity (v) is zero. If we rearrange this equation, we get t = (v - u) / -g.
As the problem doesn't state the initial velocity with which the ball is thrown upward, we need to find it first. We can do this by applying the equation of motion: v² = u² + 2gs, where s = displacement. If we set v = 0 at maximum height, the equation becomes u = √(2gs). Given s = 178 m and g = 9.8 m/s², we find u ≈ 186.26 m/s. Substituting these values into our time equation, we get t ≈ 19 seconds for the time to reach maximum height. As mentioned, the ball will take the same time to fall back, hence the total time in air will be around 38 seconds.

You are asked to put aluminum siding on the two ends of a house. Siding cost $18.50 per square yard and you charge $12.40 per square yard fir installation. How much should you charge to put siding on the ends of the house
Answer:
$1510.32 (Select option closest to this)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- Siding material cost = $18.50 per square yard
- installation cost = $12.40 per square yard
- width of one side = 22 ft
- height of one side = 10 ft
Find:
- How much should you charge to put siding on the ends of the house
Solution:
- Assuming the the cost of material is also borne by you. Summing the rate of material and installation for both sides for you per square yard:
Total rate for both side = 2*($18.50 per square yard + $12.40 per square yard
Total rate for both side = $ 61.8 per square yard
- Area covered by a side is:
Area covered = 10 * 22 = 220 ft^2 * (yard^2 / 9 ft^2) = 24.44 yard^2
- Total amount you will be charging is:
Total amount = Total rate for both side * Area covered
Total amount = $ 61.8 per square yard * 24.44 yard^2 = $1510.32
How do you do this question?
Step-by-step explanation:
The integral is the area under the curve. When the curve is above the x-axis, the area is positive. When the curve is below the x-axis, the area is negative. The integral equals 0, so we want to find the value of b such that the area of the quarter circle is canceled out by the area of the triangle.
Area of the quarter circle is:
A = π/4 r²
A = 9/4 π
Area of the triangle is:
A = ½ bh
9/4 π = ½ (b − 3) (b − 3)
9/2 π = (b − 3)²
b − 3 = 3√(π/2)
b = 3 + 3√(π/2)
b = 6.760

Then the answer is 42/63 = (2 x 21) / ( 3 x 21) = 2/3
A bus left new york city and arrived in Philadelphia after 2 1/3 hours. From there, it took 1 3/4 hours to travel Baltimore. It took another 5/6 hour to go from baltimore to washington. If the bus arrived in washington at 10:05 pm, at what time did it leave New York city
Answer:
The bus left New York city at 5:10pm
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to calculate the total number of hours the bus used to travel from New York to Washington.
Total number of hours traveled
= 2 1/3hr + 1 3/4hr + 5/6hr
= 7/3+7/4+5/6
=28+21+10/12
=59/12
= 4 11/12hours
Converting 11/12hours to minutes we will have 11/12×60 = 55minutes
Therefore the bus traveled for 4hours 55minutes.
If the bus arrived in Washington at 10:05 pm and the bus left New York 4hours 55minutes ago, this means that the bus did left New York at (10.05-4.55)pm i.e 5:10pm
4hours past 10:05pm will be 6:05pm
55minutes past 6:05pm will be 5:10pm
This means that the bus left New York city at 5:10pm
