if three students in mrs. Johansen's class said their favorite vacation was sightseeing, predict how many students are in her class based on this survey?​

Answer:

a. x

b. 1/s^2

c. z^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of x that makes the shape a kite is determined as 4.

One special property of a kite shape is that it has two pairs of adjacent sides that are congruent (i.e., they have the same length). In other words, the two shorter sides are equal in length, and the two longer sides are equal in length, but the shorter and longer sides are not equal to each other.

The value of x is calculated by applying this special property of kite;

6x - 3 = 21 --- (1)

4x + 1 = 17 --- (2)

Solving equation (1)

6x = 24

x = 24/6

x = 4

Solving equation (2);

4x = 17 - 1

4x = 16

x = 16/4

x = 4

So the shape is kite if the value of x is 4.

The measure of angle m∠KSP is 14⁰.

A special property of a parallelogram is that opposite angles are equal in measure. This means that if you take any two angles of a parallelogram that are opposite each other, they will have the same degree measure.

The measure of angle m∠KSP is calculated as follows;

The measure of angle P and R = ¹/₂[ 360 - (76 x 2)] (sum of angles in quadrilateral )

The measure of angle P and R = 104

The measure of QPK = 180 - (76 x 2) (sum of angles in a triangle )

The measure of QPK =  28⁰

Angle P consists of QPK plus KPS

KPS = 104 - QPK

KPS = 104 - 28

KPS = 76

The measure of angle m∠KSP is calculated as;

KSP = 180 - (90 + 76) ( sum of angles in a triangle)

KSP = 14⁰

Answer:

38

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Q and P are supplementary because they are parallelograms.

So,

180 - < Q = < P                               Use substitution

180 - 76 = < P                                 Solve

180 - 76 = 104

104 = < P

Since we know that < QPK and < KPS are congruent and are apart of < P we can multiply < P by 1/2 to find either < QPK or < KPS.

So,

1/2(104)                                           Simplify using distributive property

52

If a shape is a triangle, then it’s interior angles all add up to 180.

< KPS + < PKS + < KSP = 180        Use substitutions

52 + 90 + < KSP = 180                  Move variables to one side

< KSP = 180 - 52 - 90                    Simplify  
< KSP = 38

And there’s your answer: 38

Thomas can fill 35 of these 1/4 gallon containers with the light-blue mixture.

To find out how many 1/4 gallon containers Thomas can fill with the light-blue mixture, we need to divide the total volume of the mixture by the volume of one container.

The total volume of the mixture can be found by adding the volumes of blue and white paint that Thomas mixed

Total volume = 4 3/8 gallons + 6 5/8 gallons

To add these mixed numbers, we need to find a common denominator, which is 8

Total volume = (4 x 8 + 3) / 8 gallons + (6 x 8 + 5) / 8 gallons

Total volume = 35/8 gallons

Now we can set up the two equations

Total volume = number of containers x volume per container

We know the total volume is 35/8 gallons, and the volume per container is 1/4 gallon, so we can write

35/8 = (1/4) x number of containers

Number of containers = total volume / volume per container

We can rearrange the above equation to solve for the number of containers

Number of containers = total volume / volume per container

Number of containers = 35/8 / 1/4

Number of containers = 35/8 x 4

Number of containers = 35

0.148 is the probability that they are both democrats.

In one town, 39% of all voters are democrats.

If two voters are randomly selected for a survey, the probability that they are both democrats can be calculated as follows.

P(A) = 0.39 is the probability of selecting a democrat in the first draw.

P(B|A) = 0.38

is the probability of selecting a democrat in the second draw if the first draw selects a democrat.

P(B|A') = 0.39 is the probability of selecting a democrat in the second draw if the first draw does not select a democrat.

The probability that both voters are democrats is:

P(A) x P(B|A) = 0.39 x 0.38 = 0.1482

The result is 0.1482, which means the probability that two voters are both democrats in one town is 0.1482 to the nearest thousandth.

Niraek will have covered 400 donut holes by the time all three workers finish their current donut holes at the same time.

The time it takes to coat a donut hole is directly proportional to the surface area of the donut hole.

The surface area of a sphere is given by the formula:

Surface Area = 4πr²

Here, r is the radius of the sphere.

Comparing the surface areas of the donut holes:

Niraek's donut hole: Surface Area = 4π(6²)

Theo's donut hole: Surface Area = 4π(8²)

Akshaj's donut hole: Surface Area = 4π(10²)

Now, let's find the LCM of the surface areas to determine the time it takes for all workers to finish:

LCM(144π, 256π, 400π) = 57600π mm²

This means that it will take the same amount of time for all three workers to finish their current donut holes when they have covered a total surface area of 57600π mm².

Number of donut holes = (Total surface area) / (Surface area of Niraek's donut hole)

= (57600π mm²) / (144π mm²)

= 57600 / 144

= 400

Therefore, Niraek will have covered 400 donut holes by the time all three workers finish their current donut holes at the same time.

Mathematicians use the unitary technique to address proportional relationship issues involving two or more quantities. To answer problems involving rates, ratios, and proportions, it is frequently employed in academics and everyday life. With the unitary technique, the value with one unit is first determined, and the value of the desired amount of units is then determined using this value. The unitary technique can be used, for instance, to determine the price of 1 pen if the price of 4 pens is $8. Cost of 1 pen equals the sum of the costs of 4 other pens. One pen costs $8 plus $4. One pen costs $2.

Two ones and two hundredths can be represented as a mixed number, which is [tex]2 \frac{2}{100}[/tex].

To convert this mixed number to an equivalent fraction, we need to first convert the whole number part to a fraction by multiplying it by the denominator of the fraction part, and then adding the numerator of the fraction part. So, we have:

2 + 2/100 = (2 * 100 + 2) / 100 = 202/100

Now, we can simplify this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 2:

Answer:

The difference between the price after value added tax (VAT) and the price after discount of an article gives us the actual amount of money saved by the customer.

The price after VAT is the price of the item including the tax imposed by the government, whereas the price after discount is the price of the item after any promotional or discounted price reduction. By subtracting the price after discount from the price after VAT, we can determine the actual amount saved by the customer, which is the discount amount minus any VAT paid on the original price.

For example, if an item originally cost $100 with a 10% VAT, the price after VAT would be $110. If the item was discounted by 20%, the price after discount would be $80. The difference between the price after VAT and the price after discount would be $30, which is the actual amount saved by the customer ($20 discount minus $10 VAT paid on the original price).

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the actual amount saved by the customer, we need to follow these steps:

Determine the original price of the item. For example, let's say the original price of the item is $100.

Calculate the VAT amount paid on the original price. To do this, multiply the original price by the VAT rate as a decimal. For example, if the VAT rate is 10%, then the VAT amount would be:

VAT amount = original price x VAT rate

VAT amount = $100 x 0.1

VAT amount = $10

So, the VAT amount paid on the original price of $100 is $10.

Determine the discounted price of the item. For example, let's say the item is discounted by 20%, so the discounted price is:

Discounted price = original price - (original price x discount rate)

Discounted price = $100 - ($100 x 0.2)

Discounted price = $80

So, the discounted price of the item is $80.

Calculate the actual amount saved by the customer. To do this, subtract the discounted price from the price after VAT. For example:

Actual amount saved = price after VAT - discounted price

Actual amount saved = $110 - $80

Actual amount saved = $30

So, the actual amount saved by the customer is $30, which is the discount amount minus the VAT paid on the original price.

Answer:

Let x be the first unknown angle, and y be the second unknown angle.

We know that the sum of the three angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, so:

85 + 9kx + 10kx = 180

where k is a constant representing the ratio of the other two angles.

Simplifying the equation, we get:

19kx = 95

Dividing both sides by 19k, we get:

x = 5/k

Since the ratio of the other two angles is 9:10, we know that:

y = 9kx = 9k(5/k) = 45

So the measures of the two unknown angles are:

x = 5/k and y = 45

We cannot find the exact measures of x and y without more information, but we know that x and y are in a ratio of 9:10 and their sum is 180 - 85 = 95 degrees. We can set up the following equation to solve for k:

5/k + 45/k = 95

50/k = 95

k = 50/95

Using this value of k, we can find the measures of x and y:

x = 5/k = 5/(50/95) = 9.5

y = 9kx = 9(50/95)(9.5) = 47.37

Therefore, the measures of the two unknown angles are x = 9.5 degrees and y = 47.37 degrees (rounded to two decimal places).

The visitor should run 1.2 miles to minimize the time it takes to reach the island.

Consider the following figure.

Let us assume that x (CD) represents the distance covered when visitor runs at a rate of 5 mph

So, the time taken by visitor would be:

t₁ = x/5

Let the distance covered 10 - x when visitor swims at a rate of 3 mph

From figure consider right triangle ABC.

Using Pythagoras theorem,

BC² = 7² + (10 - x)²

BC = [tex]\sqrt{49 + (10-x)^2}[/tex]

Now the times taken by visitor when he swims at a rate of 3 mph,

t₂ =  [tex]\frac{ \sqrt{49 + (10-x)^2}}{3}[/tex]

so, the total time would be:

t = t₁ + t₂  

[tex]t=\frac{x}{6}+\frac{ \sqrt{49 + (10-x)^2}}{3}[/tex]

Differentiating with respect to x we get,

[tex]\frac{dt}{dx}=\frac{1}{6} -\frac{(10-x)}{ \sqrt{49 + (10-x)^2}}[/tex]

consider dt/dx = 0

[tex]\frac{1}{6} -\frac{(10-x)}{ \sqrt{49 + (10-x)^2}}=0[/tex]

If we solve above equation for x we get, x = 11.2 and x = 8.8

To find the diameter of a circle with a radius of 100 km, we can simply double the radius, since the diameter is twice the length of the radius.

Therefore, the diameter of a circle with a radius of 100 km is:

2 x 100 km = 200 km

So the diameter is 200 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average number of samples (out of 20) that will contain the pollutant is 2.

a. Probability that 2 of the next 20 samples contain the pollutantTo calculate the probability that 2 of the next 20 samples contain the pollutant, we use the binomial distribution. We can use the formula below:P(X=k) = (nCk) pk(1-p)n-kwhere:n = 20, the number of samples; k = 2, the number of samples containing the pollutant; p = 0.10, the probability that a sample contains the pollutant; q = 1 - p = 0.90, the probability that a sample does not contain the pollutant.Using the above formula, we get:P(X=2) = (20C2) (0.10)2(0.90)18= (190) (0.01) (0.2066)≈ 0.3979Therefore, the probability that 2 of the next 20 samples contain the pollutant is approximately 0.3979.

b. Probability that at least four of the next 20 samples contain the pollutantTo calculate the probability that at least four of the next 20 samples contain the pollutant, we need to calculate the probability of P(X ≥ 4).We can use the complement of P(X < 4) and use the binomial distribution formula to calculate this. We get:P(X ≥ 4) = 1 - P(X < 4)P(X < 4) = P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2) + P(X=3)P(X=0) = (20C0) (0.10)0(0.90)20= (1) (1) (0.1216)≈ 0.1216P(X=1) = (20C1) (0.10)1(0.90)19= (20) (0.10) (0.2296)≈ 0.4593P(X=2) = (20C2) (0.10)2(0.90)18= (190) (0.01) (0.2066)≈ 0.3979P(X=3) = (20C3) (0.10)3(0.90)17= (1140) (0.001) (0.2753)≈ 0.2059Therefore, P(X < 4) ≈ 0.1216 + 0.4593 + 0.3979 + 0.2059 ≈ 1.185P(X ≥ 4) = 1 - P(X < 4)≈ 1 - 1.185= -0.185This is not a valid probability. Therefore, we have made an error in our calculations, and the probability cannot be calculated using this method.

c. Probability that more than 2 and less than 7 of the next 20 samples contain the pollutant. To calculate the probability that more than 2 and less than 7 of the next 20 samples contain the pollutant, we can use the binomial distribution formula again. We need to calculate P(3 ≤ X ≤ 6).We can use the formula:P(3 ≤ X ≤ 6) = P(X=3) + P(X=4) + P(X=5) + P(X=6)P(X=3) = (20C3) (0.10)3(0.90)17= (1140) (0.001) (0.2753)≈ 0.2059P(X=4) = (20C4) (0.10)4(0.90)16= (4845) (0.0001) (0.3112)≈ 0.1516P(X=5) = (20C5) (0.10)5(0.90)15= (15504) (0.00001) (0.3544)≈ 0.0583P(X=6) = (20C6) (0.10)6(0.90)14= (38760) (0.000001) (0.3919)≈ 0.0121Therefore,P(3 ≤ X ≤ 6) ≈ 0.2059 + 0.1516 + 0.0583 + 0.0121 ≈ 0.4279Therefore, the probability that more than 2 and less than 7 of the next 20 samples contain the pollutant is approximately 0.4279.

d. Average number of samples (out of 20) that will contain the pollutantThe expected value or average number of samples that will contain the pollutant can be calculated using the following formula:E(X) = npwhere:n = 20, the number of samples; p = 0.10, the probability that a sample contains the pollutant.Using the above formula,E(X) = np= 20 (0.10)= 2.
