Joan has 7/8 of her book left to read. If she reads ¼ each day, how many days will it take her to finish?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4 days

Step-by-step explanation:

first convert 1/4 to eighths

2/8=1/4

to make 2/8 equal 7/8

you have to multiply by 4 for it to be 8/8

it cant be 7/8 because that would be three and a half days and they only read 1/4 each day

so it would take 4 days to finish

Answers

Answer:

a) There is a 59.87% probability that none of the LED light bulbs are defective.

b) There is a 31.51% probability that exactly one of the light bulbs is defective.

c) There is a 98.84% probability that two or fewer of the LED light bulbs are defective.

d) There is a 100% probability that three or more of the LED light bulbs are not defective.Step-by-step

Scale factor red to blue meaning 42 to 7

42÷7=6

Scale factor is 6

Perimeter of the blue quadrilateral = ?

If perimeter of red = 204

Then we use this following proportion

[tex]204 \div 42 = x \div 7[/tex]

[tex] \frac{204}{42} = \frac{x}{7} [/tex]

Then we cross multiply

42x=7×204

42x=1428

x=34

Area of the blue quadrilateral = ?

If area of the red quadrilateral = 2880

Then we use the following proportion

[tex]2880 \div 42 = x \div 7[/tex]

[tex] \frac{2880}{42} = \frac{x}{7} [/tex]

Then we cross multiply

42x=2880×7

42x=20160

x=480

What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line and passes through the point (15,-5)?

Answers

The equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line and passes through the point (15,-5) is y = -x + 10

The complete question is

What is the y-intercept of the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line y = x + 10 and passes through the point (15, –5)?

What is the meaning of Perpendicular ?

A perpendicular means a line which intersects the other line at 90 degree.

Line given y = x+10

slope = 1

Slope of the line perpendicular to the above line = -1

and it passes through the point  (15, –5)

The equation will become

y = mx +c

-5 = -1 * 15 + c

15-5 = c

c = 10

Therefore the equation is y = -x +10

B. Domain: -6 ≤ x ≤ 14
Range: -4 ≤ y ≤ 12

C. Domain: {-4, -2, 0, 12}
Range: {-6, -3, 1, 14}

D. Domain: -4 ≤ x ≤ 12
Range: -6 ≤ y ≤ 14

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

the domain is the definition of the valid x (input) values.

the range is the definition of the valid y (result) values.

as the function is defined by listing the specific points, the function only consists of individual points and not of connecting lines.

therefore the domain and range cannot be continuous intervals (otherwise the function would suddenly also include points not in the original list).

so, B and D are wrong.

and A is right, because the domain contains the x values, and the range the y values.

following is true.

Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answers

Using the normal distribution, considering it's symmetry, it is found that the value of C is of 2.19.

Normal Probability Distribution

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean. Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

The standard normal distribution has mean and standard deviation given, respectively, by:

[tex]\mu = 0, \sigma = 1[/tex].

Hence, considering the symmetry of the normal distribution, the value of c is Z with a p-value of (1 + 0.9715)/2 = 0.98575, hence c = Z = 2.19.

Two triangles are similar. The base of one is 2 inches and the height is 5 inches. If the base of the other is 7 inches, what is the height?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

similar shapes means that they have the same angles, and there is one scale factor that applies to all sides and other lines in the shapes (like heights).

therefore the ratios between 2 correlated lines are all the same.

so,

2/7 = 5/height

2×height / 7 = 5

2×height = 7×5 = 35

height = 35/2 = 17.5 in

Shirley is drawing triangles that have the same area. The base of each triangle varies inversely with the height. What are the possible base and height of a second triangle if the first triangle's base is 14 and its height is 6?

Answers

The possible base and height of a second triangle are 12 and 7, respectively

How to determine the possible base and height of a second triangle?

An inverse variation is represented as:

Base * Height = k

Where k is the constant of variation.

In this case, k is the area

So, we have:

Base * Height  = Area

For the first triangle, we have:

14 * 6 = Area

Evaluate

Area = 84

Substitute Area = 84 in Base * Height  = Area

Base * Height  = 84

Express 84 as the product of two numbers

Base * Height  = 12 * 7

By comparison;

Base =12 and Height = 7

Hence, the possible base and height of a second triangle are 12 and 7, respectively
