(PLEASE HELP) 17. Jon read 3/8 of a book the
first day. 1/3 the second day.
and 1/4 the third day. On the
fourth day he finished the book.
What part of the book did Jon
read on the fourth day?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{24}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

24 is a common multiple so ill just use that as a denominator:

3/8 = 9/24

1/3 = 8/24

1/4 = 6/24

so then adding those up:

[tex]\frac{9}{24}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{8}{24}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{6}{24}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{23}{24}[/tex]

then whats left is 1/24 left to read, which cant be simplified so [tex]\frac{1}{24}[/tex]

Answer 2

Answer:

   [tex]\frac{1}{24}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the part of the book he read on fourth day.

[tex]\frac{3}{8} + \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{4} + x = 1[/tex]

[tex]LCM \ of \ 8, 3 , 4 = 24.\ Therefore , \\\\[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3}{8} + \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{4} + x = 1\\\\\frac{9 + 8 + 6 + 24x}{24} = 1\\\\23 + 24x = 24\\24x = 1\\x = \frac{1}{24}[/tex]

[tex]On\ the\ fourth\ day\ he\ read\ \frac{1}{24} \ of\ the\ book\ to\ finish\ it.[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

D 5

Step-by-step explanation:

the same scaling factor s applies to all sides when transforming from the small to the large triangle.

x×s = x + 5

(x-2)×s = x +1

=> s = (x+5)/x

=> (x-2)×(x+5)/x = x + 1

=> x² + 3x - 10 = x² + x

=> 3x - 10 = x

=> 2x = 10

=> x = 5

A car dealership offers two types of discounts.

Discount 1: Take 5% off the original price of a car built last year, and then receive a $3,500 rebate.

Discount 2: Take 10% off the original price of a car built this year, and then rece ve a $1,250 rebate.

A customer is deciding between two cars. Car R was bure ast year and has an original price of $25,340. Car 5 was built this vear and has an original price of 522.960. .

Based on this information, which statement is true?

F The customer would pay $19,524 for cars S.

G The customer would pay $24.078 For Cars R.

H The customer would pay $21,824 For Cars S.

J The customer wou d pay $23.10 O Car R.​

Answers

Question:

Based on the same question options as found an online resource, we have;

Statement

G. The customer would pay $24,073 for car R

Answer:

The true statement

G. The customer would pay $24,073 for car R

Step-by-step explanation:

Discounts are deductions from the original price of a commodity or service

A rebate is a partial refund after payment is made

The discount offered by the car dealership are;

Discount 1;

5% reduction off a car built last year's original price, + $3,500 rebate

Discount 2;

10% reduction off a car built this year's original price + $1,250 rebate

The year car R was built = Last year

The original price for car R = $25,340

Let 'A' represent the amount the customer would pay, let, 'p' represent the price of the car, let 'd' represent the discount offered, and let 'r' represent the rebate

Given that the payment is made before the rebate, we have;

The amount the customer will pay, A = p - (p×d)

Therefore;

The amount the customer would pay for car R = $25,340 - (0.05 × $25,340) = $24,073

The amount the customer would pay for car S = $22,960 - (0.1 × $22,960) = $20,644

Therefore, the true statement, is the customer would pay $24,073

A 41 gram sample of a substance that's used to detect explosives has a k-value of 0.1392. Find the substance's half life, in days.

Answers

Answer:

The substance half-life is of 4.98 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation for an amount of a decaying substance:

The equation for the amount of a substance that decay exponentially has the following format:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}[/tex]

In which k is the decay rate, as a decimal.

k-value of 0.1392.

This means that:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-0.1392t}[/tex]

Find the substance's half life, in days.

This is t for which [tex]A(t) = 0.5A(0)[/tex]. So

[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-0.1392t}[/tex]

[tex]0.5A(0) = A(0)e^{-0.1392t}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-0.1392t} = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-0.1392t}} = \ln{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]-0.1392t = \ln{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]t = -\frac{\ln{0.5}}{0.1392}[/tex]

[tex]t = 4.98[/tex]

The substance half-life is of 4.98 days.

We're looking for values between 0.333 and 0.667

We can rule out choice A because 1 doesn't fit the description.

Choice C can be ruled out as well because 9/12 = 0.750 isn't between 0.333 and 0.667

A water slides at a party of s 15 feet tall.The base of the water slide is 8 feet long.what is the length of the slide?

Answers

Answer:

It would be 17 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

So to do this, there is a right triangle being made with the height of the water slide and its base (length). With this, the Pythagorean Theorem can be used to find the hypotenuse of these lengths by the equation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

So by plugging in the given legs of the triangle, the answer can be found.

15^2 + 8^2 = c^2

225 + 64 = c^2

289 = c^2

c = 17

A boat spots a helicopter at an angle of elevation of 40 degree that is reporting a height of 900 feet above the water. How far is the horizontal distance from the boat to the helicopter?

Answers

Answer:

1072.58feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following

Angle of elevation = 40degrees

Height of helicopter above the water = 900feet

Required

Horizontal distance H

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

tan theta = opposite/adjacent

tan 40 = 900/H

H = 900/tan40

H = 900/0.8391

H = 1,072.58feet

Hence the horizontal distance from the boat to the helicopter is 1072.58feet

Austin’s monthly gross pay is $4,200. Federal withholding is 16.05% of his pay. His other deductions total $321.30. What is his net pay.

Answers

Answer:

$3,204.6

Step-by-step explanation:

$ 4,200              represents       100% of his salary

x amount  of $   represents      16.05 % in federal withholding

after you line up $ with $ and % with % think cross multiplication

x = 4,200* 16.05/ 100 = $674.1 is the amount in federal withholding

Net pay = 4,200 -674.1 -321.30 =  $3,204.6

Item 19 Your pump empties the water from a swimming pool in 6 hours. When your friend's pump is used together with your pump, the pool is emptied in 1.5 hours. How long (in hours) does it take your friend's pump to empty the pool when working alone

Answers

Answer:

0.75 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Time taken by my pump = 6 hours

Time taken by friend's pump = x

Combined time = 1.5 hours

Rate :

my pump = 1/6

Combined rate = 1/1.5

Combinwd rate = 1/6 + 1/x

Hence :

1/6 + 1/x = 1/1.5

(x + 6) / 6x = 1.5

x + 6 = 9x

x - 9x = - 6

-8x = - 6

x = - 6 / - 8

x = 0.75 hours

D 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

imagine a circle with its center in point A and going through point C.

the radius of that circle is 50 (AC).

remember, tan of an angle is sin/cos of that angle.

now rotate in our imagination that triangle to the right around point A, so that the side AB becomes the bottom base line.

now you see that 30 = sin(A)×radius = sin(A)×50

and 40 = cos(A)×radius = cos(A)×50

so, tan(A) = (sin(A)×50)/(cos(A)×50) = sin(A)/cos(A) = 30/40

A tiene la mitad de lo que tiene B. Si A gana 66 y B pierde 90. A tendrá del doble de lo que le quede a B ¿cuanto tiene cada uno?

Answers

Respuesta:

a = 82; b 164

Explicación paso a paso:

a = 1 / 2b - - - (1)

a gana 66 = a + 66

b = b - 90

a = 2b

a + 66 = 2 (segundo - 90) - - - (2)

Ponga a = 1 / 2b en (2)

1 / 2b + 66 = 2 (b-90)

0.5b + 66 = 2b - 180

0.5b - 2b = - 180 - 66

-1,5b = - 246

b = 164

a = 1 / 2b

a = 1/2 * 164

a = 82

27 feet = 27/3 = 9 yards18 feet = 18/3 = 6 yards

Since you only get one 1/5 of the price off you save $17

Just to check and make sure you can do 17 * 5 = 85

you should get $68 bc when you take 20% off of 100 you are paying 80% and that in a decimal is 0.8 so you multiply 85 by 0.8
