Brenda has three times more quarters
than Lisa has. Brenda gives 20% of her
quarters to Lisa, but she still has $1
more. How many quarters does Lisa
have in the beginning?
E. 5
F. 10
G. 15
H. 20

Answers

Answer 1
5 is the answer i think
Answer 2

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

If Lisa has x quarters and Brenda has 3x quarters, we can write:

80% * 3x = 4 + (20% * 3x + x) -- We write 4 because 1 dollar =  4 quarters

0.8 * 3x = 4 + (0.2 * 3x + x)

2.4x = 4 + 1.6x

0.8x = 4

x = 5

Given the sequence 38, 32, 26, 20, 14, ..., find the explicit formula.

Answers

Answer:

The explicit formula for the sequence is

44 - 6n

Step-by-step explanation:

The above sequence is an arithmetic sequence

For an nth term in an arithmetic sequence

A(n) = a + ( n - 1)d

where a is the first term

n is the number of terms

d is the common difference

From the question

a = 38

d = 32 - 38 = - 6 or 20 - 26 = - 6 or

14 - 20 = - 6

So the formula for the sequence is

A(n) = 38 + ( n - 1)-6

= 38 - 6n + 6

We have the final answer as

A(n) = 44 - 6n

Hope this helps you

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{a_n=-6n+44}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an arithmetic sequence:

32 - 38 = -6

26 - 32 = -6

20 - 26 = -6

14 - 20 = -6

The common difference d = -6.

The explicit formula of an arithmetic formula:

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)(d)[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]a_1=38;\ d=-6[/tex]

[tex]a_n=38+(n-1)(-6)[/tex]         use the distributive property

[tex]a_n=38+(n)(-6)+(-1)(-6)\\\\a_n=38-6n+6\\\\a_n=-6n+(38+6)\\\\a_n=-6n+44[/tex]

The time between failures for an electrical appliance is exponentially distributed with a mean of 25 months. What is the probability that the next failure will not occur before 30 months have elapsed

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the next failure will not occur before 30 months have elapsed is 0.0454

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Poisson distribution  where

t= number of units of time

x= number of occurrences in t units of time

λ= average number of occurrences per unit of time

P(x;λt) = e raise to power (-λt)  multiplied by λtˣ divided by x!

here λt = 25

x= 30

P(x= 30) = 25³⁰e⁻²⁵/ 30!

P (x= 30) = 8.67 E41 * 1.3887 E-11/30!    (where E= exponent)

P (x=30) = 1.204 E31/30!

Solving it with a statistical calculator would give

P (x=30) = 0.0454

The probability that the next failure will not occur before 30 months have elapsed is 0.0454

Find the values of k so that the area of the triangle with vertices (1, -1), (-4,2k) and (-k, – 5) is 24 sq. units

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of k so that the triangle with vertices (1, -1), (-4,2k) and (-k, – 5) is 24 sq. units.

The area of triangle is given by :

[tex]A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times [x_1(y_2-y_3)-x_2(y_3-y_1)+x_3(y_1-y_2)][/tex]

Here,

x₁ = 1, y₁ = -1, x₂ = -4, y₂ = 2k, x₃ = -k and y₃ = -5

So,

[tex]24=\dfrac{1}{2}\times [1(2k-(-5))-(-4)((-5)-(-1))+(-k)((-1)-(2k))][/tex]

In ∠QRS, m∠R=65°, and m∠S=35°. Which side of ΔQRS is the longest?

Answers

Answer:

The longest side of the ΔQRS is Side RS.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  m∠R=65°, m∠S=35° we don't know what m∠Q is in ΔQRS.

To find m∠Q , we first need to know that all triangles have a sum of 180°. Since we are already given two angle measurements ( m∠R and  m∠S) we can add them both measurements up which gives us 100°. Then we subtract 100 from the triangle sum which is 180° (180°-100°) and we are left with 80°. Which mean that m∠Q got to be 80°.

Now we know the all the angles measurements we can immediately find out which side is the longest. To find the longest side its always lie opposite the largest angle which in this m∠Q (80°). Which mean that side RS is the longest side in the triangle.

A box is filled with 9 red crayons, 2 blue crayons, and 5 yellow crayons. A crayon is chosen at random from the box. Find the probability that it is a red or a blue crayon. Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(Red\ or\ Blue) = \frac{11}{16}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Red = 9[/tex]

[tex]Blue = 2[/tex]

[tex]Yellow = 5[/tex]

Required

Probability of Red or Blue

First, it should be noted that the event described in the question are mutually exclusive or disjoint events;

Meaning that the probability of one have no effect the other;

Having said that; the Probability of Red ot Blue is as follows

[tex]P(Red\ or\ Blue) = P(Red) + P(Blue)[/tex]

Calculating [tex]P(Blue)[/tex]

[tex]P(Blue) = Number\ of\ blue\ crayon / total\ crayon[/tex]

[tex]P(Blue) = \frac{2}{9+ 2 + 5}[/tex]

[tex]P(Blue) = \frac{2}{16}[/tex]

Calculating [tex]P(Red)[/tex]

[tex]P(Red) = Number\ of\ red\ crayon / total\ crayon[/tex]

[tex]P(Red) = \frac{9}{9+ 2 + 5}[/tex]

[tex]P(Red) = \frac{9}{16}[/tex]

Substitute these values in the formula given above

[tex]P(Red\ or\ Blue) = P(Red) + P(Blue)[/tex]

[tex]P(Red\ or\ Blue) = \frac{9}{16} + \frac{2}{16}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]P(Red\ or\ Blue) = \frac{9 + 2}{16}[/tex]

[tex]P(Red\ or\ Blue) = \frac{11}{16}[/tex]

Hence, the probability of a red or blue crayon is

[tex]P(Red\ or\ Blue) = \frac{11}{16}[/tex]

Hello There. ☆~---~--___●♡●__~--☆ Since p = x² - 7, you can substitute/plug in p for x² - 7

So:

(x² - 7)² - 4x² + 28 = 5

(p)² - 4x² + 28 = 5   You can factor out -4 from (-4x² + 28)

p² - 4(x² - 7) = 5        Plug in p

p² - 4p = 5        Subtract 5

p² - 4p - 5 = 0  And, your correct answer is C.

Find the midline for f(x)=2cos(3x−5π6)−2

Answers

Answer:  y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = A cos (Bx - C) + D

                                  ↓

                                center line (aka midline)

f(x) = 2 cos (3x - 5π/6) - 2

                                      ↓

                                  midline = -2

The midline of the cos function f(x) = 2cos(3x − 5π/6) − 2 is y = -2 after comparing with standard cos function f(x) = Acos(Bx - C) + D

What is cos function?

It is defined as a function that is sin-cos wave in nature, and it has a domain of all real numbers and lies between the [a, a] where is the amplitude of the function.

It is given that the cos function is:

f(x) = 2cos(3x - 5π/6) - 2

As we know, the standard form of the cos function is:

f(x) = Acos(Bx - C) + D

Here, A is the amplitude

B is the period of the cos function

C is the phase shift of the cos function

D is the vertical shift of the cos function/midline

On comparing:

D = -2

The midline:

y = -2

Thus, the midline of the cos function f(x) = 2cos(3x − 5π/6) − 2 is y = -2 after comparing with standard cos function f(x) = Acos(Bx - C) + D

B. How many hits the website must have for thread to appear 1000 times with 0.05 probability that an ad appears when the website is loaded.

= 20,000 hits

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The probability that an ad appears when a particular website is loaded = 0.2

When the website gets 2,000 hits a day, the ad appears

= 2,000 x 0.2

= 400 times

B. When the probability that an ad appears when the website is loaded is 0.05.

Therefore, the website must have 20,000 hits for thread to appear 1,000 times

= 1,000/0.05

= 20,000 times

The probability of an ad appearing when a website is loaded is the chance that the event happens (i.e. the ad appears) from the many events that can happen.

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle 1 and 4 are opposite angles, thus equal, so:

x = 25

Angle 1 and 4 are 85°

Angle 4 and angle 6 are called allied (or co-interior) angles, which are supplementary, i.e., angle 6 = 180 - angle 4, so angle 6 = 95°.

Angle 6 and 7 are again opposite, so angle 7 is 95° as well!

Answer:

Length = 25 cmBreadth = 10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let breadth of the room be 'x'

Let length of the room be '[tex]2 \frac{1}{2} x = \frac{5}{2} = 2.5 \: x[/tex]'

Perimeter ( P ) = 70 cm

Now, let's find the breadth of the room 'x '

The Greenpoint factory produced two-fifths of the Consolidated Brick Company’s bricks in 1991. If the Greenpoint factory produced 1,400 tons of bricks in 1991, what was the Consolidated Brick Company’s total output that year, in tons?

Answers

Answer:

3500 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

The Greenpoint factory produced 2/5 of the bricks that the Consolidate Brick Company produced in 1991.

Let the amount of bricks produced by the Greenpoint factory be g and the amount of bricks produced by the Consolidated brick company be c.

Therefore:

g = 2/5 * c = 2c/5

That year, the Greenpoint factory produced 1400 tons of bricks. This implies that:

1400 = 2c/5

To find the amount that the Consolidated Brick Company produced, solve for c:

1400 = 2c/5

1400 * 5 = 2c

7000 = 2c

c = 7000 / 2 = 3500 tons

The Consolidated Brick Company had a total production output of 3500 tons in 1991.
