Josiah has 3 packs of toy animals.Each pack has the same number of animals.Josiah gives 6 animals to his sister stephanie.Then josiah has 9 animals left.How many animals were in each park?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

there are 5 animals in each pack.

Step-by-step explanation:

if you add 9+6= 15 then divide 15 by 3 you will get 5 as your answer

Answer 2

Answer: there were 5 animals in each pack.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of toy animals in each pack.

Josiah has 3 packs of toy animals. Each pack has the same number of animals. This means that the number of animals in the 3 packs is

3x

Josiah gives 6 animals to his sister stephanie. This is expressed as 3x - 6. If she has 9 left, it means that

3x - 6 = 9

3x = 9 + 6

3x = 15

x = 15/3

x = 5

Rachel is collecting donations for the local animal shelter. So far she has collected $245 which is 70% of what she hopes to collect. How much money does Rachel plan to collect for the shelter?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer

She plans to collect 350 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Knowing that 245 dollars is equal to only 70% of what Rachel hopes to collect, the equation:

70% * x = 245

where x = money she plans to collect in total, is applicable,

Solving:

70/100 * x = 245,

7/10 * x =245,

7x/10 = 245,

7x = 2450,

x = 350 dollars

A firm offers routine physical examinations as part of a health service program for its employees. The exams showed that 8% of the employees needed corrective shoes, 15% needed major dental work, and 3% needed both corrective shoes and major dental work. What is the probability that an employee selected at random will need either corrective shoes or major dental work

Answers

Answer: 0.206

Step-by-step explanation: the probability of employees that needs corrective shoes are =8%= 8/100 = 0.08

Probability of employees that needs major dental work = 15% = 15/100 = 0.15

Probability of employees that needs both corrective shoes and dental work = 3% = 3/100 = 0.03

The probability that an employee will need either corrective shoes or major dental work = (Probability an employee will need correct shoes and not need dental work) or (probability that an employee will need dental work or not corrective shoes)

Probability of employee not needing corrective shoes = 1 - 0.08 = 0.92

Probability of employee not needing dental work = 1 - 0.15 = 0.85

The probability that an employee will need either corrective shoes or major dental work = (0.08×0.85) + (0.15×0.92) = 0.068 + 0.138 = 0.206 = 20.6%

The probability that an employee will need either corrective shoes or dental work = 0.206.

Please note that the word "either" implies that we must choose one of the two options (corrective shoes or dental work) and not both.

The  probability that an employee selected at random will need either corrective shoes or major dental work is 0.206.

Calculation of the probability:

Since

The exams showed that 8% of the employees needed corrective shoes, 15% needed major dental work, and 3% needed both corrective shoes and major dental work.

So,

Probability of employee not needing corrective shoes should be

= 1 - 0.08

= 0.92

And,

Probability of employee not needing dental work should be

= 1 - 0.15

= 0.85

So final probability should be

= (0.08×0.85) + (0.15×0.92)

= 0.068 + 0.138 = 0.206

= 20.6%

hence, The  probability that an employee selected at random will need either corrective shoes or major dental work is 0.206.

Invest $6,300 in two different accounts the first account paid 11% the second account paid 6% in interest at the end of the year he had earned $643 in interest how much was in each account

Answers

Answer: he invested $5300 at 11% and $1000 at 6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount which he invested in the first account paying 11% interest.

Let y represent the amount which he invested in the second account paying 6% interest.

He Invest $6,300 in two different accounts the first account paid 11% the second account paid 6% in interest. This means that

x + y = 6300

The formula for determining simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Considering the first account paying 11% interest,

P = $x

T = 1 year

R = 11℅

I = (x × 11 × 1)/100 = 0.11x

Considering the second account paying 6% interest,

P = $y

T = 1 year

R = 6℅

I = (y × 6 × 1)/100 = 0.06y

At the end of the year, he had earned $643 in interest , it means that

0.11x + 0.06y = 643 - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 6300 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.11(6300 - y) + 0.06y = 643

693 - 0.11y + 0.06y = 643

- 0.11y + 0.06y = 643 - 693

- 0.05y = - 50

y = - 50/ - 0.05

y = 1000

x = 6300 - y = 6300 - 1000

x = 5300

Caleb's mother said they will drive 1 /4 hour to get there, and they will drive another 1 /4 hour back. Once they arrive, Caleb's brother will be playing in 3 soccer games. Each soccer game takes 3 4 hour, and there is no break in between games. Calculate how long will they be away from home.

Answers

Answer: They are away for [tex]2\dfrac{3}{4}\ hours[/tex] from home.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Time to get there = [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]

Time to get back = [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]

Number of soccer games = 3

Time for each soccer games = [tex]\dfrac{3}{4}[/tex]

So, total time for 3 games would be

[tex]3\times \dfrac{3}{4}=\dfrac{9}{4}[/tex]

So, the time for which they will be away from home is given by

[tex]\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{9}{4}+\dfrac{1}4}=\dfrac{1+9+1}{4}=\dfrac{11}{4}=2\dfrac{3}{4}\ hours[/tex]

Hence, they are away for [tex]2\dfrac{3}{4}\ hours[/tex] from home.

Caleb and his family will be away from home for a total of 2 3/4 hours.

To find out how long Caleb and his family will be away from home, we need to calculate the total time for the trip to and from the soccer games, as well as the duration of the games.

Driving to the location: 1/4 hourDriving back home: 1/4 hourEach soccer game lasts: 3/4 hour. Since there are 3 games, the total time spent in games is: 3 games × 3/4 hour/game = 2 1/4 hours.

Adding it all together:

Total driving time: 1/4 hour + 1/4 hour = 1/2 hour

Total game time: 2 1/4 hours

Total time away from home: 1/2 hour + 2 1/4 hours = 2 3/4 hours

Therefore, Caleb and his family will be away from home for a total of 2 3/4 hours.

We sample the performance of each step, and find that each of them operates correctly about 95% of the time. What is the probability that a customer who visits three times will find our service satisfactory on all 3 visits?

Answers

Answer:

85%

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of finding our satisfactory service in the three visits in a row would be the multiplication of the probability of each event.

The event is always the same. 95% of the service will be satisfactory. That is a probability of 95/100

Then the final probability would be:

(95/100) * (95/100) * (95/100) = 0.85

In other words, the probability that a customer who visits three times will find our service satisfactory is 85%

Find the length of MK if JK=36, JL=48, and JN=60.

Answers

The length of MK is 9

Explanation:

The length of the sides are [tex]J K=36[/tex] , [tex]\mathrm{JL}=48[/tex] , [tex]J N=60[/tex]

We need to determine the length of MK

From the figure, we can see that JMN is a triangle and KL is parallel to MN.

Then, by side - splitter theorem, we have,

[tex]\frac{JK}{KM} =\frac{JL}{LN}[/tex]

where [tex]J K=36[/tex] , [tex]\mathrm{JL}=48[/tex]

The length of LN can be determined by subtracting JN and JL.

Thus, we have,

[tex]LN=JN-JL[/tex]

[tex]LN=60-48=12[/tex]

The length of LN is [tex]LN=12[/tex]

Substituting the values [tex]J K=36[/tex] , [tex]\mathrm{JL}=48[/tex] and [tex]LN=12[/tex] in [tex]\frac{JK}{KM} =\frac{JL}{LN}[/tex], we have,

[tex]\frac{36}{KM} =\frac{48}{12}[/tex]

Multiplying both sides by 12, we have,

[tex]\frac{36\times 12}{KM} =48[/tex]

 [tex]\frac{432}{KM} =48[/tex]

  [tex]\frac{432}{48} =KM[/tex]

The focal points of an ellipse are (12, 0) and (−12, 0), and the point (12, 7) is on the ellipse. Find the points where this curve intersects the coordinate axes.

Answers

Answer:

x - ( 16 , 0 ) , ( -16 , 0 )

y - ( 0 ,  4√7 ) , ( 0 , -4√7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

- The sum of the distances from a point on the ellipse to its foci is constant. You have both foci and a point, so you can find the sum of the distances.

-Then you can find the vertices since they are points on the ellipse on the x-axis whose sum of distances to the foci are that value.

- The 7 in y coordinate of (12,7) is the length of semi-latus rectum. Also c is 12:

                                     c^2 = a^2 + b^2

Where, a: x-intercept

            b: y-intercept

- The length of semi-latus rectum is given by:

                                     b^2 = 7*a

- Substitute latus rectum expression in the first one we get:

                                    c^2 = a^2 + 7a

                                    a^2 + 7a - 144 = 0

                                    ( a - 16 ) * ( a - 9 ) = 0

                                    a = +/- ( 16 )

- The y-intercept we will use latus rectum expression again:

                                    b = +/- √(7*16)

                                    b = +/- 4√7

- The intercepts are:

                                    x - ( 16 , 0 ) , ( -16 , 0 )

                                    y - ( 0 ,  4√7 ) , ( 0 , -4√7)  

                                     

Final answer:

An ellipse is a closed curve where the sum of the distances from any point on the curve to the two foci is constant. To find where this particular ellipse intersects the coordinate axes, we can set y = 0 to find the points of intersection with the x-axis and set x = 0 to find the points of intersection with the y-axis.

Explanation:

An ellipse is a closed curve where the sum of the distances from any point on the curve to the two foci is constant. The focal points of this ellipse are (12, 0) and (-12, 0). We know that the point (12, 7) lies on the ellipse. To find where this curve intersects the coordinate axes, we need to find the points where the ellipse intersects the x-axis and y-axis.

Intersecting the x-axis:

To find the points where the ellipse intersects the x-axis, we set y = 0 and solve for x. In this case, the coordinates of the intersection points will be (x, 0).

Plugging in y = 0 into the equation of the ellipse:

(x - 12)^2 / a^2 + (0 - 0)^2 / b^2 = 1

Simplifying this equation:

(x - 12)^2 / a^2 = 1

Since the ellipse is symmetric about the y-axis, the x-coordinates of the intersection points will have the same absolute value but opposite signs. So, we can solve for a single value of x and then take its negative to find the other intersection point.

(x - 12)^2 / a^2 = 1

x - 12 = a

x = a + 12

The coordinates of the intersection points on the x-axis are (a + 12, 0) and (-a - 12, 0).

Intersecting the y-axis:

To find the points where the ellipse intersects the y-axis, we set x = 0 and solve for y. In this case, the coordinates of the intersection points will be (0, y).

Plugging in x = 0 into the equation of the ellipse:

(0 - 12)^2 / a^2 + (y - 0)^2 / b^2 = 1

Simplifying this equation:

144 / a^2 + y^2 / b^2 = 1

Solving for y:

y^2 / b^2 = 1 - 144 / a^2

y^2 / b^2 = (a^2 - 144) / a^2

y^2 = b^2 * (a^2 - 144) / a^2

y = ± sqrt(b^2 * (a^2 - 144) / a^2)

The coordinates of the intersection points on the y-axis are (0, ± sqrt(b^2 * (a^2 - 144) / a^2)).

_____

Comment on the geometry

The triangles at either end of the figure will be 5-12-13 right triangles, meaning the height of the figure is 12 cm. Using that height, we find the area to be (12 cm)(20 cm) = 240 cm^2 (not 340 cm^2). This leads us to believe there is a typo in the problem statement.

As the problem is given, the geometry is impossible. The height of the parallelogram cannot be greater than the length of the slanted side.

As the problem is written, it is a "one-step" problem. (Divide the area by the base length.) If the area were not given, then the Pythagorean theorem would be required to find the height. That is a 2-step problem:

  13^2 = 5^2 + h^2

  h^2 = 169 -25 = 144 . . . . solve for h²

  h = √144 = 12 . . . . . . . . . take the square root

It is not at all clear what 3 steps you're supposed to show in your work.

Solve for xxx. Your answer must be simplified. -30<\dfrac x{-4}−30< −4 x ​ minus, 30, is less than, start fraction, x, divided by, minus, 4, end fraction

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x<120[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an inequality [tex]-30<\frac{x}{-4}[/tex]. We are asked to solve the given inequality.

To solve for x, we will multiply both sides of inequality by negative 4. When we multiply or divide both sides of an inequality, the inequality sign reverses.

[tex]-30\cdot (-4)>\frac{x}{-4}\cdot (-4)[/tex]

[tex]120>x[/tex]

This means that 120 is greater than x or x is less than 120.

[tex]x<120[/tex]

Therefore, our required inequality would be [tex]x<120[/tex].

Final answer:

The solution to the inequality -30 < x / -4 is found by multiplying both sides by -4, which reverses the inequality sign, resulting in the solution x < 120. This demonstrates the manipulation of inequalities, particularly when involving negative multipliers.

Explanation:

The correct interpretation of this question is solving the inequality -30 < x / -4. To solve this inequality, we firstly multiply both sides by -4, remembering that multiplying or dividing by a negative number reverses the inequality sign. Thus, the inequality becomes 120 > x, which means x must be less than 120 for the inequality to hold true.

Therefore, the solution to the given inequality is x < 120. This highlights the importance of carefully handling inequalities, especially when multiplying or dividing by negative numbers, as it requires reversing the inequality sign to maintain the accurate relationship between both sides.

Most major airlines allow passengers to carry two pieces of luggage (of a certain maximum size) onto the plane. However, their studies show that the more carry-on baggage passengers have, the longer it takes to unload and load passengers. One regional airline is considering changing its policy to allow only one carry-on per passenger. Before doing so, it decided to collect some data. Specifically, a random sample of 1,000 passengers was selected. The passengers were observed, and the number of bags carried on the plane was noted. Out of the 1,000 passengers, 345 had more than one bag.
The domestic version of Boeing's 747 has a capacity for 568 passengers. Determine an interval estimate of the number of passengers that you would expect to carry more than one piece of luggage on the plane. Assume the plane is at its passenger capacity.
a) (171.651, 216.214)
b) (181.514, 208.313)
c) (174.412, 217.218)
d) (179.20, 212.716)

Answers

Answer:

d) (179.20, 212.716)

Step-by-step explanation:

1000 : 345

569 : 195.96

Midpoint of (179.20, 212.716) is 195.958 which is the closest to 195.96

Final answer:

The interval estimate for passengers expected to carry more than one piece of luggage on a full Boeing 747 is (179.20, 212.716), calculated using the sample proportion and the standard error for a 95% confidence interval.

Explanation:

To determine an interval estimate of the number of passengers that would be expected to carry more than one piece of luggage on a domestic Boeing 747 with a capacity of 568 passengers, we use the sample proportion of passengers with more than one bag from the given sample, which is 345 out of 1000 passengers. This sample proportion, denoted as p-hat, is 0.345. We will use this proportion to estimate the population proportion in the domestic Boeing 747, assuming the plane is at full capacity.

We can calculate the estimated number of passengers by multiplying the proportion (p-hat) by the capacity of the plane. For a Boeing 747 with 568 passengers, this would be 0.345 * 568. To build an interval estimate, we also need to calculate the standard error (SE) of the proportion which is given by the formula SE = sqrt(p-hat*(1-p-hat)/n), where 'n' is the sample size. With a sample size of 1000, the SE can be calculated and then used to construct the 95% confidence interval using the Z-score for 95% confidence (approximately 1.96).

After calculating the interval estimate, we find that the confidence interval falls within one of the options provided. The correct interval estimate of the number of passengers expected to carry more than one piece of luggage on the plane, assuming it's full, would be (179.20, 212.716), which corresponds to option d.

piecewise function f(x) is below. What is the value of f(3)?

Answers

Option B:

f(3) = 5

Solution:

Given function:

[tex]f(x)=\left\{\begin{aligned}-x^{2}, \ \ & x<-2 \\3, \ \ &-2 \leq x<0 \\x+2, \ \ & x \geq 0\end{aligned}\right.[/tex]

If x value is less than –2, that is –3, –4, –5, –6, ... then f(x) = –x².If x value is greater than or equal to –2 and less than 0, that is –2 and –1 then f(x) = 3.If x value is greater than or equal to 0, that is 0, 1, 2, 3,... then f(x) = x +2.

To find the value of f(3):

Here x value is 3 which is greater than 0 (3 > 0).

Therefore, f(x) = x + 2.

Substitute x = 3 in the above function.

f(3) = 3 + 2

f(3) = 5

Hence option B is the correct answer.

in the year 2015.



12,353 51,604 or 59,106

Answers

Answer: 59106

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for exponential decay which is expressed as

A = P(1 - r)^ t

Where

A represents the population after t years.

t represents the number of years.

P represents the initial population.

r represents rate of growth.

From the information given,

P = 60000

r = 0.1% = 0.1/100 = 0.001

t = 2015 - 2000 = 15 years

Therefore

A = 60000(1 - 0.001)^15

A = 60000(0.999)^15

A = 59106

The predicted population of Adams County in the year 2015 is calculated using the initial population and applying a yearly decrease of 0.1% over 15 years, resulting in approximately 59,106 residents.

The question involves calculating the predicted population of Adams County in the year 2015 based on a yearly decrease of 0.1% from the year 2000.

To find the population in 2015, we need to apply the percentage decrease for each year from 2000 to 2015, which is a total of 15 years. The formula to calculate the population after a certain number of years with a consistent percentage change is: [tex]P = P_0 (1 - r)^t[/tex] where P is the final population, P₀ is the initial population, r is the rate of decrease, and t is the number of years.

Using the given data, P0 = 60,000, r = 0.001 (0.1% expressed as a decimal), and t = 15 years.

So, the calculation will be: P = 60,000 (1 - 0.001)¹⁵ = 60,000 (0.999)¹⁵ = 60,000 (0.985075) ≈ 59,106

Therefore, the predicted population of Adams County in the year 2015 is approximately 59,106 residents.

If she brought her lunch to school 30% of the time, how many days did she bring her lunch during the first semester?

Answers

Answer:

27 days

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a total of 90 days in the semester, and she bought lunch 30% of the total days, then the total number of days she brought the lunch is 27 days.

What is the Percentage?

The Latin term "per centum," which signifies "by the hundredth," was the source of the English word "percentage." Segments with a denominator of 100 are considered percentages. In other terms, it is a relationship where the worth of the entire is always considered to be 100.

As per the information provided in the question,

Total days in the semester = 90

Margaret comes with lunch, 30% of the total days.

So, in total days, Margaret comes with lunch,

To win the carnival game Ring Ding, you must toss a wooden ring onto a grid of rectangles so that it lands without touching any of the grid lines. The ring has a 3-inch diameter, the rectangles are twice as long as they are wide, and the game has been designed so that you have a 28% chance of winning. What are the dimensions of each rectangle

Answers

Answer:

5in x 10in

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

1.  You have to assume that the ring will land on the board and as a result, just focus on one rectangle of the board since they are all the same size.  

 

2.  For the ring to land entirely inside the rectangle, the center of the ring needs to be 1.5 inches inside the border (radius is 1.5 inches), so the "winning rectangle" will have dimensions:

                               L = (x - 2(1.5)) = x - 3

                              w = (2x - 2(1.5)) = 2x-3.

 

3.  Now, we will set up and solve our geometric probability equation.  The winning rectangle's area of (x-3)*(2x-3) divided by the total rectangle's area of x*(2x) = 28%

 

                                (2x-3)*(x-3)/(2x^2) = .28

                                2x^2 - 9x + 9 = .56x^2

                                1.44x^2 - 9x + 9 = 0

 

4 .  Now you can plug that in the quadratic formula and get the solutions x = 1.25 or 5.  However, it cannot by 1.25 because that is too small of a dimension for the the circle with diameter of 3 to fit in, the answers has to be 5.

 

5. As a result, the dimensions of the rectangles are 5in x 10in.  

Final answer:

The game Ring Ding involves throwing a wooden ring onto a rectangular grid; the exact dimensions of the rectangles cannot be determined only with the provided information including the 28% win probability.

Explanation:

This is a question of probability concerning how a carnival game has been designed. Specifically, the game Ring Ding involves throwing a wooden ring onto a grid of rectangles without the ring touching any lines. Unfortunately, the question doesn't provide sufficient information to determine the exact dimensions of each rectangle. While it mentions the diameter of the ring and the relative dimensions of the rectangles (being twice as long as they are wide), the 28% chance of winning does not give a direct way to calculate the rectangle's dimensions as it depends upon other factors as well like player's skill, distance, angle of throw, etc.
