Factor 3/4 out of 3/4z + 6

Answers

ANSWER

[tex] \frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + 8 )[/tex]


EXPLANATION

We want to factor
[tex] \frac{3}{4} [/tex]
out of

[tex] \frac{3}{4} z + 6[/tex]

The first term is already having a factor of
[tex] \frac{3}{4} [/tex]
The constant term which is the second term is not having a factor of
[tex] \frac{3}{4} [/tex]
so we need to use a trick of multiplying and dividing by the same factor to obtain,



[tex] \frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} z + \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{6}{ \frac{3}{4} } [/tex]


We can now factor
[tex] \frac{3}{4} [/tex]
out of the right hand side to obtain,

[tex] \frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + \frac{6}{ \frac{3}{4} } )[/tex]
Let us rewrite the right most fraction using the normal division symbol.

[tex] \frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + 6 \div \frac{3}{4} )[/tex]




We simplify to obtain,

[tex] \frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + 6 \times \frac{4}{3} )[/tex]



This further gives us,


[tex] \frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + 2 \times 4 )[/tex]



[tex] \frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + 8 )[/tex]

Answers

The answers are:
1.4
1
0

Answer : The mean, median, and mode of the household pet data is, 1.4, 1 and 0 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation :

Mean : It is determine by adding all the numbers then divided by how many numbers there are.

[tex]Mean=\frac{\text{Sum of outcomes}}{\text{Number of outcomes}}[/tex]

Median : It is the middle term that is sorted by the list of numbers. It is determine by placing the numbers in increasing order.

For odd observations the formula will be: [tex]\frac{n+1}{2}[/tex]

For even observations:

First find the value at position [tex]\frac{n}{2}[/tex]

Second find the value at position [tex]\frac{n+1}{2}[/tex]

Then find that average of two values to get the median.

Mode : It is defined as the value that appears most in a set of data.

As we are given that the set of data:

1, 1, 0, 4, 1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 2, 0, 2, 0, 3, 1, 2, 0, 0, 1, 0, 4, 0, 0, 3, 1, 0, 0, 2, 1, 0, 0, 4, 0, 1, 3, 5, 0, 2, 1

First we have to placing the numbers in increasing order.

0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5

Now we have to determine the mean.

[tex]Mean=\frac{\text{Sum of outcomes}}{\text{Number of outcomes}}[/tex]

Sum of outcomes = 1+1+0+4+1+0+1+2+3+5+2+0+2+0+3+1+2+0+0+1+0+4+0+0+3+1+0+0+2+1+0+0+4+0+1+3+5+0+2+1 = 56

[tex]Mean=\frac{56}{40}=1.4[/tex]

The mean of the household pet data is, 1.4

Now we have to determine the median.

For even data:

[tex]\frac{n}{2}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{n+1}{2}[/tex]

Here, n = 40

[tex]\frac{40}{2}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{40+1}{2}[/tex]

20 and 20.5

The number of pets at 20th position and 21th position is, 1 and 1 respectively.

Then we have to take an average of two values.

[tex]\frac{1+1}{2}=1[/tex]

The median of the household pet data is, 1

Now we have to determine the mode.

In the given set of data, 0 appears 15 times, 1 appears 10 times, 2 appears 6 times, 3 appears 4 times, 4 appears 3 times and 4 appears 2 times.

The value that appears most in a set of data is, 0

The mode of the household pet data is, 0

if m∠1 = 50, then m∠5 =

Answers

1. angle 1 = 50 degrees [ Reason is Given]
2. angle 1 and angle 5 are corresponding angles [Given]
3..Therefore angle1=angle 5 [ Corresponding angles are =]
4..Therefore angle 5 = 50 degrees [= angles have same measure]

The above assumes that we are talking about corresponding angles of congruent or similar polygons or corresponding angles forme when a transversal intersects two parallel lines

The angle measure of angle 5 is m∠5 = 130 degrees.

What is an angle measure?

When two lines or rays intersect at a single point, an angle is created. The vertex is the term for the shared point. An angle measure in geometry is the length of the angle created by two rays or arms meeting at a common vertex.

Given information:

The two lines m and n are parallel lines.

And line l intersects lines m and n.

m∠1 = 50.

angle 1 and angle 3 are opposite angles.

Therefore, m∠1 = m∠3.

Angle 3 and angle 5 represent a pair of supplementary angles.

So,

m∠3 + m∠5 = 180

m∠5 = 180 -50

m∠3 = 130.

A can of orange and a chocolate bar cost £1.30 together. Two cans of orange and a chocolate bar cost £2.15 together. How much would three cans of orange and four chocolate bars cost?

Answers

I’m using phone version so I wrote it down in a letter. Hope this will be helpful

Solving the system of linear equations provided, we find that the cost of a can of orange is £0.85 and a chocolate bar costs £0.45. Therefore, three cans of orange and four chocolate bars would cost £4.35.

The student's question involves solving a system of linear equations to find the individual prices of a can of orange and a chocolate bar. Once the individual prices are determined, the student wants to know the total cost of three cans of orange and four chocolate bars. Here's a step-by-step approach to solve this problem:

Let the price of a can of orange be 'O' and the price of a chocolate bar be 'C'.

The first equation from the given information would be O + C = £1.30.

The second equation would be 2O + C = £2.15.

Subtract the first equation from the second to find the price of an additional can of orange, which gives us O = £0.85.

Substitute the value of O in the first equation to find C, which yields C = £0.45.

Now, calculate the cost of three cans of orange and four chocolate bars: 3O + 4C = 3(£0.85) + 4(£0.45) = £2.55 + £1.80 = £4.35.

So, three cans of orange and four chocolate bars would cost £4.35 together.

Part A: Marguerite rented a truck at $125 for 2 days. If she rents the same truck for 5 days, she has to pay a total rent of $275.

Write an equation in the standard form to represent the total rent (y) that Marguerite has to pay for renting the truck for x days. (4 points)

Part B: Write the equation obtained in Part A using function notation. (2 points)

Part C: Describe the steps to graph the equation obtained above on the coordinate axes. Mention the labels on the axes and the intervals. (4 points)

Answers

Part A: To get an equation into standard form to represent the total amount  rented (y) that Marguerite has to pay for renting the truck for x amount of days, we use the formula for the equation of a straight line.

Remember that the equation of a straight line passing through points is ( x_{1} , y_{1} ) and the points ( x_{2} , y_{2} ) is given by
y - y_{1} / x - x_{1} = y - y_{2} / x - x_{2}

Knowing that Marguerite rented a truck at $125 for 2 days, we know if she rents the exact same truck for 5 days, she has to pay a total of $275 for the rent.

This means that the line modeling this situation crosses points at (2, 125) and (5, 275).

The equation modeling the total rent (y) that Marguerite has to pay for renting the truck for x days is given by

y - 125 / x - 2 = 275 - 125 / 5 - 2 = 150 / 3 = 50

But if you are writing the equation in standard form it would be 

50x - y = -25


Part B:
When writing the function using function notation it means you are making y the subject of the formula and then replacing the y with f(x).

If you remember that from part A, we have that the equation for the total rent which is y that Marguerite has to pay for renting the truck for x amount of days is given by
y = 50x + 25.

Writing the equation using the function notation would give us this
f(x) = 50x + 25


Part C:
To graph the function, we name the x-axis the number of days and name the y-axis total rent. The x-axis is numbered using the intervals of 1 while the y-axis is numbered using the intervals of 50.
The points of (2,125) and of (5,275) are marked on the coordinate axis and a straight line is drawn to pass through these two points.

Answer:

Part A: Marguerite rented a truck at $125 for 2 days. If she rents the same truck for 5 days, she has to pay a total rent of $275.

G(6) = 9

so
(F - G) (6) = 8 - 9 = -1

Answer:

The value of (F-G)(6) is -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given functions are defined as

[tex]F = \{(0, 1), (2, 4), (4, 6), (6, 8)\}[/tex]

[tex]G = \{(2, 5), (4, 7), (5, 8), (6, 9), (7, 5)\}[/tex]

A building is 1 ft from a 12​-ft fence that surrounds the property. A worker wants to wash a window in the building 1515 ft from the ground.ground. He plans to place a ladder over the fence so it rsts against the building.​ (See the​ figure.) He decides he should place the ladder 9 ft from the fence for stability. To the nearest tenth of a​ foot, how long a ladder will he​ need?

Answers

Final answer:

Using the Pythagorean Theorem for the given right triangle, we calculated that the worker would need a ladder of at least 25 feet in length to reach the window.

Explanation:

The problem described can be solved by using the Pythagorean Theorem, which is appropriate for any right triangle. In the given problem, we have a right triangle - one side is the distance from the fence to where the ladder touches the building (12ft + 1ft + 9ft = 22ft), the other side is the height of the window from the ground (15ft), and the hypotenuse is the length of the ladder we need to find.

According to the Pythagorean theorem: [tex]A^2 + B^2 = C^2[/tex]. If we plug in our values, it would look like [tex]15^2 + 22^2 = C^2[/tex]. After carrying out the operations, we find that C^2 = 625.

To find the length of the ladder (C), we take the square root of 625, which is 25ft. So, the worker needs a ladder that is at least 25 feet long.

There are two sizes of trucks available: larger truck with a 2.5-ton payload, and smaller trucks with 1.5-ton payload. To unload a freight train 21 larger trucks are needed . How many smaller trucks would be needed for the same job?

Answers

You would need 14 small trucks

Answer:

35 smaller trucks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

i) The larger truck with a 2.5-ton payload, and smaller trucks with 1.5-ton payload.

ii)  To unload a freight train 21 larger trucks are needed .

Total load of the freight train = 21 times 2.5 tons

= 21  × 2.5

= 52.5 tons

To find the number of small trucks needed, we need to divide 52.5 by 1.5

= 52.5 ÷ 1.5

= 35 small trucks needed.

So, to unload the freight, we need 35 smaller trucks.
