You need to haul a load of patio bricks to a job site. Each brick weighs 4 pounds 14 ounces. Your truck can carry a 3/4-ton load. How many bricks can your truck carry in a full load?

Answers

Answer 1
Convert "3/4 ton" into pounds.  Use the identity 2000 lb = 1 ton.
                                     2000 lb           1500 lb
Then       [(3/4) ton] * ---------------- = ----------------
                                        1 ton                 1

Now divide 1500 lb by 4 lb 14 oz.  Note that 4 lb 14 oz = 4 14/16 lb, or
4 7/8 lb, or 4.875 lb.

Then, divide 1500 lb by

4.875 lb 
------------ to determine the number of bricks the truck can safely carry.
 1 brick

This comes out to 1500/4.875 bricks, or approx. 307 bricks.

A movie theater charges $10.50 per ticket and $5 per bucket of popcorn. You never buy the popcorn because you think it's too expensive.
Is the total price you pay proportional to the number of tickets you buy?

Answers

yes I think so I could be wrong but I think the answer is yes it is proportional 

Yes, the total price pay is proportional to the number of tickets.

What is proportionality?

In mathematics, proportionality indicates that two quantities or variables are related in a linear manner.

Since you never plan to buy the popcorn but only the movie ticket, therefore we can definitely say that there is a direct correlation between the total price and the number of tickets bought.

Since, 1 ticket = $10.50

So,

The proportion equation is:

P = 10.50 t

where P is the total price and t is the number of tickets

Hence,  the total price pay is proportional to the number of tickets.

mn+7p=8 for p

Answers

Final answer:

To solve the equation mn + 7p = 8 for p, subtract mn from both sides to get 7p = 8 - mn, then divide by 7 to isolate p, resulting in p = (8 - mn) / 7.

Explanation:

To solve the equation mn + 7p = 8 for p, we need to isolate p on one side of the equation. We can do this by performing the following steps:

Subtract mn from both sides of the equation to get 7p = 8 - mn.Divide both sides of the equation by 7 to solve for p: p = (8 - mn) / 7.

Now, the variable p is isolated, and the equation shows p in terms of m and n.

The provided reference solution and the graphing technique are not directly applicable to this algebra problem, as they pertain to different cases with specific contexts such as elasticity and supply-demand curves. For the actual question at hand, we focused exclusively on algebraic manipulation to find the value of p.

Shakira went bowling with her friends .she paid $3 to rent shoes and then $4.75 for each game of bowling.if she spent a total of $21 , then how many games did shakira bowl ?

Answers

shakira bowled around 4 games

Answer: Shakira bowled 4 games.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, the total cost for Shakira (21) is equal to the multiplication of the price of each game of bowl  (4.75) and the number of games bowled (g), plus the cost of the shoes rental (3).

3 + 4.75 g = 21

Solving for g:

4.75 g = 21-3

4.75 g = 18

g= 18/4.75

g = 3.78 = 4 games (rounded)

The school gym can hold no more than 650 people. The bleachers will seat 176 people. The PTA is setting up 25 rows of chairs for their meeting. At most, how many chairs can be in each row?
A) 18
B) 19
C) 26
D) 27

Answers

B). 18 chairs at most. Can fit in each row. 

650 - 176 = 474

474 / 25 = 18.96

You cannot round in the situation because you can't have 18.96 of a chair. It's either whole or it's not going to be built. 

Answer:

A)18

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of chairs in the school gym can be represented by inequality 176 + 25c ≤ 650, where c represents the number of chairs in each row. When you solved for c, we find that c = 18.96. Since you cannot have a fraction of a chair, we know that the maximum number of chairs in each row must be 18.

Answers

Use the given information as (x, y) points.
You have
(1, 34)
(2, 50)
(3, 66)
(4, 82)
The difference between renting for 1 day and 2 days is 50 - 34 = 16.
The difference between renting for 2 days and 3 days is 66 - 50 = 16
The difference between renting for 3 days and 4 days is 82 - 66 = 16
For each day you rent you pay $16.
Now look at renting for 1 day.
The rental for 1 day is $16, but for 1 day you pay $34.
$34 - $16 = $18
There is an extra $18 in the rental for every day. The $18 is fixed.
That means, to rent a truck, you must pay a fixed amount of $18 plus $16 per day.

total cost = daily cost + fixed cost
total cost =       16d    +      16
c = 16d + 18

Which fraction is closest to 1?
5/6, 11/20 or -9/10

Answers

5/6 is closest to 1.
if you change all the fractions to a common denominator then it will be easier to compare fractions. in this case the greatest common denominator is 60. you can find the the greatest common denominator by finding the greatest common factor of the numbers

5/6 = 50/60
11/20 = 33/60
-9/10 = -54/60

by doing this we can see that 5/6 is the closest fraction to 1. if you are confused on the -9/10 that is the closest to -1 not 1.

A teacher wants to calculate a class average on the last test. One student made a significantly lower score than the rest of the class because he failed to follow instructions. Which measure of center would be best for the teacher to use to get an accurate idea on how well the class as a whole performed on the last test?
A. mode
B. median
C. mean
D. range

Answers

Final answer:

The median is the best measure of center for the teacher to use to evaluate the overall performance of the class on a test when the data set includes an outlier.

Explanation:

The most appropriate measure of center for the teacher to use in this situation is the median. This is because the median is the best measurement when a data set contains outliers or extreme values that could significantly skew the mean. Since the dataset contains a student score that is significantly lower due to not following instructions, the median would provide a more accurate idea of how the class as a whole performed, as it is less affected by this outlier. On the other hand, the mode might not be as informative if most of the scores are unique, and the mean would be substantially affected by the low score. The range is a measure of spread, not center, and therefore not suitable for determining the average performance.

Xavier worked 10 hours on Monday and 15 hours on Wednesday. His total pay was 280.00 what is his rate per hour

Answers

The answer is B, $11.20.
 
Number of hours worked on Monday = 10 hours
Number of hours worked on Tuesday = 15 hours
Total pay received by Xavier = $280
Total number of hours worked  = (10 + 15)=25 hours
                                                                
Rate per hour = 280/25 dollars per hour
                     
 11.2 dollars per hour (B)

Hope this helps! :)

Xavier's rate per hour is $11.20.

What is unit rate?

A unit rate means a rate for one of something. We write this as a ratio with a denominator of one. For example, if you ran 70 yards in 10 seconds, you ran on average 7 yards in 1 second. Both of the ratios, 70 yards in 10 seconds and 7 yards in 1 second, are rates, but the 7 yards in 1 second is a unit rate.

Given that, Xavier worked 10 hours on Monday and 15 hours on Wednesday. His total pay was 280.00

Number of hours worked on Monday = 10 hours

Number of hours worked on Tuesday = 15 hours

Total pay received by Xavier = $280

Total number of hours worked  = (10 + 15) = 25 hours

Therefore, Rate per hour = 280/25 dollars per hour

                   

Hence, Xavier's rate per hour is $11.20.

An investment of $700 will double in 12 years at a simple interest rate of 6%.


Answers

this is the correct answer

Answer:

statement A, C, D, are true.

Step-by-step explanation:

We check all the statements by the rule of 72 to find which statement about doubling an investment are true.

Formula we use = [tex]\frac{72}{R}[/tex]  R = Rate of interest

Statement A :

An investment of $5,000 will double in 6 years at an annual compound interest rate of 12%.

 [tex]\frac{72}{12}[/tex] = 6 years

It will take 6 years to double the investment. This statement is true.

Statement B :

An investment of $1000 will double at an annual compound interest rate of 18% in 6 years.

[tex]\frac{72}{18}[/tex] = 4 years

It will take 4 years to double the investment. This statement is not true.

Statement C:

An investment of $350 will double in 9 years at a compound interest rate of 8%.

[tex]\frac{72}{8}[/tex] = 9 years

It will take 9 years to double the investment. This statement is true.

Statement D :

An investment of $2000 will double at a simple interest rate of 5% in 20 years.

Formula for Simple interest = (PRT)

                                           I  = (2000 × 0.05 × 20) = $2000

So the amount will be 4000 in 20 years. This statement is true.

Statement E :

An investment of  $700 will double in 12 years at a simple interest rate of 6%

Interest = ( 700 × 0.06 × 12 ) = $504

Amount after 12 years 700 + 504 = $1204. This statement is not true.

trey made 12 out of 30 free throw shots on the basketball court. if he attempts 75 free throw shots, how many could be expect to make

Answers

Trey can expect to make approximately 30 out of 75 free throw shots based on his previous success rate of 12 out of 30 shots.

To find how many free throws Trey might make out of 75 attempts, we use the proportion of his successful shots in the initial 30 attempts. Trey made 12 out of 30 shots, which is a success rate of  [tex]\( \frac{12}{30} = \frac{2}{5} \).[/tex] We can expect him to maintain this rate over 75 shots:

[tex]\[ \text{Expected shots made} = \left( \frac{2}{5} \right) \times 75 = \frac{2 \times 75}{5} = 30 \][/tex]

Therefore, Trey can expect to make approximately 30 free throws out of 75 attempts. This estimation assumes his skill level and shooting conditions remain consistent throughout the attempts.

This calculation is a basic projection and doesn't account for potential variations in Trey's performance. Factors such as fatigue, practice, and pressure can influence his actual performance. However, it provides a reasonable estimate based on his past performance.

Using this estimate, coaches or analysts can make rough predictions about Trey's potential scoring contribution from free throws in a game or practice session, helping them plan strategies accordingly.
