If 1 shoe equals 6.5 socks, how many socks are equivalent to 2.3 shoes?

Answers

Answer 1

The equivalent number of socks to 2.3 shoes is 14.95 socks

Ratio and proportions

Fractions are expression written as a ratio of two integers. For instance If 1 shoe equals 6.5 socks, this can be written as:

1 shoe = 6.5 socks

In order to determine the number of socks for 2.3 shoes, we will have:

2.3 shoes = x socks

Determine the ratio

1/2.3 = 6.5/x

Cross multiply

1 * x = 2.3 * 6.5

x =  2.3 * 6.5

x = 14.95

Hence the equivalent number of socks to 2.3 shoes is 14.95 socks

The value of the composite function (mn)(-3) is 9

How to determine the value of the composite function?

The above composite function is calculated as

(mn)(x) = m(x) * n(x)

Substitute -3 for x in the above function

So, the above function becomes

(mn)(-3) = m(-3) * n(-3)

So, the above function becomes

(mn)(-3) = -3 *-3

Evaluate the product in the above equation

$ _____________ at 13 %

Answers

The amount invested in the account that paid 4% interest is $2,600

The amount invested in the account that paid 13% interest is $1,500.

What are the simultaneous equations that represent the equation?

a + b = 4100 equation 1

0.04a + 0.13b = 299 equation 2

Where:

a = amount invested in the account that paid 4% interest

b = amount invested in the account that paid 13% interest

How much was invested in each account ?

The first step is to multiply equation 1 by 0,04

0.04a + 0.04b  = 164 equation 3

Subtract equation 3 from equation 2

0.09b = 135

b = 135 / 0.09

The sum of 23/6 and five times a number is equal to 13/6 subtracted from six times the number. find the number

Answers

The missing number in the equation is 6.

Given,

The sum of 23/6 and five times a number = 13/6 subtracted from six times the number.

We can take the number as x.

Now, the equation is:

23/6 + 5x = 6x - 13/6

Cross multiply both sides:

(23 + (5x × 6)) / 6 = ((6x × 6) - 13) / 6

We get,

(23 + 30x) / 6 = (36x - 13) / 6

Cancel 6 from both sides:

Then,

23 + 30x = 36x - 13

Add 13 to both sides:

23 + 13 + 30x = 36x - 13 + 13

We get,

36 + 30x = 36x

Add -30x to both sides:

36 + 30x - 30x = 36x - 30x

Then,

36 = 6x

x = 36/6 = 6.

That is, the missing number in the equation is 6.

Determine by composition whether f(x) = 3x + 18 and g(x)=x-6 are inverses of each other.
O No, f(g(x)) + X
O No, f(g(x)) = x
O Yes, f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x
O Yes, f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) * x

Answers

Thus, (x) = 3x + 18 and g(x)=x-6 are not inverses of each other.

Two function are inverse if they do undo or cancel each other, which means

f and g are inverse if

f(g(x)) = x and g(f(x)) = x

Here, f(x) = 3x + 18 and g(x)=x-6

Lets check by substituting the values in the formula

⇒ f(g(x))

⇒ f(x-6)

⇒ (3x + 18) - 6

⇒ 3x - 12

⇒ x = 4

g(f(x))

⇒ g(3x + 18)

⇒ 3(x-6) + 18

⇒ 3x - 18 + 18

⇒ 3x

⇒ x = 1/3

What is composition maths?

A function is composed in mathematics when two functions, f and g, are used to create a new function, h, such that h(x) = g(f(x)). The function of g is being applied to the function of x, in this case. Therefore, a function is essentially applied to the output of another function.

Answers

the percentage of the students travel over seven miles to school by train is 9 %.

Let the total number of students be represented by variable x

now, 37 % of them travel by train.

So, we get that:

By train = 37 % of x

By train = 37 / 100 (x)

By train = 0.37 x

Now, 24 % of them lives 7 miles away from the school.

So, 7 miles away = 24 % of 0.37 x

= 24 / 100 ( 0.37 x )

= 0.24 ( 0.37 x)

= 0.09 x

Answers

Answer:

  x = 0; y = -6; z = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find the solution to the system of equations ...

9x+y-3z=-910x-y+2z=8-10x-y+4z=10

Solution

This set of equations is conveniently solved using the matrix row-reduction features of a scientific or graphing calculator, spreadsheet, or any of a number of apps or on-line calculators.

The attachment shows the solution to be ...

  (x, y, z) = (0, -6, 1)

__

Additional comment

Solving a system of three or more equations "by hand" often can be done by an ad hoc process. It can be done in systematic fashion using Gauss-Jordan reduction techniques, but that often gets messy. Similarly, Cramer's Rule can be used, but that math tends to involve more arithmetic operations than are really necessary.

Adding the first equation to the other two eliminates the y-variable and reduces the system to two equations in two unknowns.

  (9x +y -3z) +(10x -y +2z) = (-9) +(8) . . . . adding [1] and [2]

  19x -z = -1 . . . . simplified

  (9x +y -3z) +(-10x -y +4z) = (-9) +(10) . . . . adding [1] and [3]

  -x +z = 1 . . . . simplified

At this point, we could graph the two equations, or we can proceed algebraically.

Adding these two equations gives ...

  (19x -z) +(-x +z) = (-1) +(1)

  18x = 0   ⇒   x = 0

Using the second of the reduced equations, we find ...

 -x +z = 1

  0 +z = 1   ⇒   z = 1

And using the second of the original equations, gives us ...

  10(0) -y +2(1) = 8

  -y = 6 . . . . . subtract 2

  y = -6 . . . . multiply by -1

Then the solution is (x, y, z) = (0, -6, 1), as above.

The dose of posaconazole in the treatment of oropharyngeal candidiasis is 100 mg twice a day on the first day and then 100 mg once a day for the next 13 days. Posaconazole oral suspension (posaconazole, 40 mg/mL) is available in 4-fluidounce bottles. How many bottles should be dispensed to meet the dosing requirements?

Answers

The number of 4-fluidounce bottles that should be dispensed to meet the dosing requirements for the treatment of oropharyngeal candidiasis is 37.5 bottles.

How is the number of bottles determined?

To determine the number of 4-fluidounce bottles, we apply mathematical operations of addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication.

First, the total dosage is determined as 1,500 mg.

Since 40 mg/mL is available in 4-fluidounce bottles, the total dosage is divided by 40 mg/mL to determine the number of bottles required.

Data and Calculations:

Dose of posaconazole for the first day = 100 mg twice

= 200 mg (100 mg x 2)

The total number of days for the dosage = 14

Dose for next 13 days = 1,300 mg (100 mg x 13)

Total dosage = 1,500 mg (200 mg + 1,300 mg)

40 mg/mL = 4-fluidounce bottle

1,500 mg = 37.5 bottles (1,500/40)

Thus, the number of 4-fluidounce bottles is 37.5 bottles.

It still lay on the veranda, and Nagaina came nearer and nearer to it, till at last, while Rikki-tikki was drawing breath, she caught it in her mouth, turned to the veranda steps, and flew like an arrow down the path, with Rikki-tikki behind her. When the cobra runs for her life, she goes like a whiplash flicked across a horse's neck.(2) Rikki-tikki knew that he must catch her, or all the trouble would begin again. She headed straight for the long grass by the thornbush, and as he was running Rikki-tikki heard Darzee still singing his foolish little song of triumph. But Darzee's wife was wiser. She flew off her nest as Nagaina came along, and flapped her wings about Nagaina's head. If Darzee had helped they might have turned her; but Nagaina only lowered her hood and went on. Still, the instant's delay brought Rikki-tikki up to her, and as she plunged into the rat hole where she and Nag used to live, his little white teeth were clenched on her tail, and he went down with herand very few mongooses, however wise and old they may be, care to follow a cobra into its hole. It was dark in the hole; and Rikki-tikki never knew when it might open out and give Nagaina room to turn and strike at him. He held on savagely, and struck out his feet to act as brakes on the dark slope of the hot, moist earth.(3) Then the grass by the mouth of the hole stopped waving, and Darzee said: "It is all over with Rikki-tikki! We must sing his death song. Valiant Rikki-tikki is dead! For Nagaina will surely kill him underground.''(4) So he sang a very mournful song that he made up all on the spur of the minute, and just as he got to the most touching part the grass quivered again, and Rikki-tikki, covered with dirt, dragged himself out of the hole leg by leg, licking his whiskers. Darzee stopped with a little shout. Rikki-tikki shook some of the dust out of his fur and sneezed. "It is all over,'' he said. "The widow will never come out again.''Which part of the story does this passage most likely represent?
