Mary takes 8 days to do a full check of the
library's online catalog. Her assistant takes
12 days. If they work together, determine the
fraction of the catalog that is checked after
4 days.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c}day&1&2&3&4\\----&-----&-----&-----&-----\\Mary&\frac{1}{8} &\frac{2}{8} &\frac{3}{8} &\frac{4}{8} \\Assis&\frac{1}{12} &\frac{2}{12} &\frac{3}{12} &\frac{4}{12} \\Sum&\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{12}&\frac{2}{8}+\frac{2}{12}&\frac{3}{8}+\frac{3}{12}&\frac{4}{8}+\frac{4}{12}\\part&\frac{5}{24}&\frac{10}{24}&\frac{15}{24}&\frac{20}{24}=\boxed{\frac{5}{6}}\\----&-----&-----&-----&-----\\\end{array}[/tex]

The fraction of the catalog that is checked after 4 days is 5/6

Answer 2

If Mary takes 8 days to do a full check and her assistant takes 12 days then if they work together then the fraction of the catalog that is checked after 4 days is 1000/12.

What is fraction?

Fraction is a combination of numerator and denominator. The number above division sign is known as numerator and the number below the division sign is known as denominator. It is in p/q form in which q cannot be equal to 0.

How to find fraction?

let the catalog contains 100 things.So in this way ,

In 1 day Mary does 100/8 things completed and her assistant does 100/12 things completed in 1 day.

So in four days they will complete =100*4/8+100*4/12

=400/8+400/12

=(4800+3200)/96

=8000/96

=1000/12

Hence if Mary takes 8 days to do a full check and her assistant takes 12 days then if they work together then the fraction of the catalog that is checked after 4 days is 1000/12.

Irene has a checking account. On Monday she writes a $160 check for groceries. Then she deposits $125
into her account. Finally, she writes another check for $40. What was the total change in the amount of
money in Irene's account on Monday?

A. $85
B. - $85
C. $75
D. -$75
E. $325
F. - $325

Answers

Answer:

D. - $75

Step-by-step explanation:

We mark checks as negative and a deposit as positive:

- 160 + 125- 40

Add up to get the total change of:

-160 + 125 - 40 = - 75

Correct choice is D

Answer:

Answer :-

Here, Irene is having a checking account. First she write a check of $160. Then means it has an decrease money. (-160) Now, She deposit $125. This means Now, the balance is -160 + 125 = $-35. She again write a check of $40. (-40). Total change =>

-40 - 35

-75

solve |5-9|+2·3= help porfavor !! asap pls

Answers

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

|5-9|+2*3

lets use the P.E.M.D.A.S order of operations rule

we have no parenthesis or exponents, so we skip to multiplication

2*3=6

then we do addition/subtraction

since the subtraction sign comes first in the equation, we evaluate

5-9=-4

since the subtraction part is in the absolution value signs, we change -4 to its absolute value.

|-4|=4

now we are left with 4+6

add

4+6=10

so, |5-9|+2*3=10

A bag contains three types of candy (gumdrops, jelly beans, and jawbreakers). If

of getting a jellybean is 1/3 What is the probability of getting a jawbreaker?

Answers

Answer:

P) = 1/2 jawbreaker

simplified P) 3/6 = 1/2 jawbreaker

Which both mean the same, so show simplified if asked and either answer if not asked would be marked high.

as 2/6 + 1/3 = 3/6

1 - 3/6 = 3/6

= 1/2    are the workings.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jelly bean = 1/3 = 2/6

Gumdrop = 1/6

2/6 + 1/6 = 3/6 = the difference of 1

1-3/6 = 3/6

Therefore; P) = 3/6 jawbreaker

Given the recursive sequence defined by:

with ti=2 and t2 = 4
Which of the following would be the first 5 terms of the sequence?

Answers

Answer:

2, 4, 26, 142, 788

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the recursive rule and t₁ = 2, t₂ = 4 , then

t₃ = 5t₂ + 3t₁ = 5(4) + 3(2) = 20 + 6 = 26

t₄ = 5t₃ + 3t₂ = 5(26) + 3(4) = 130 + 12 = 142

t₅ = 5t₄ + 3t₃ = 5(142) + 3(26) = 710 + 78 = 788

First 5 terms are 2, 4, 26, 142, 788

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]Z_1=3+i\\Z_2=6\\Z_3=4+4i\\\\||Z_2\ Z_1||^2=||-3+i||^2=9+1=10\\\\||Z_1\ Z_3||^2=||1+3i||^2=10\\\\||Z_2\ Z_3||^2=||-2+4i||^2=20\\\\And\ 10+10=20[/tex]

Using the converse of the Pythagorean's theorem, the triangle is right.

Using Pythagorean theorem, the points 3 + i, 6, and 4 + 4i indeed form the vertices of a right triangle.

The Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two shorter sides (legs) is equal to the square of the length of the longest side (hypotenuse).

Let's calculate the distances between the points and then check if the Pythagorean theorem holds for them.

Distance between points A (3 + i) and B (6):

Distance AB = |6 - (3 + i)|

                     = |6 - 3 - i|

                     = |3 - i|

                     = [tex]\sqrt{(3^2 + (-1)^2)[/tex]

                     = √10

Distance between points A (3 + i) and C (4 + 4i):

Distance AC = |4 + 4i - (3 + i)|

                     = |1 + 3i|

                     = [tex]\sqrt{(1^2 + 3^2)[/tex]

                     = √10

Distance between points B (6) and C (4 + 4i):

Distance BC = |4 + 4i - 6|

                     = |-2 + 4i|

                     = [tex]\sqrt{((-2)^2 + 4^2)[/tex]

                     = √20

Now let's check if the Pythagorean theorem holds for these distances:

Longest side: [tex]BC^2 = (\sqrt20)^2 = 20[/tex]

Sum of squares of shorter sides:

[tex]AB^2 + AC^2 = (\sqrt10)^2 + (\sqrt10)^2[/tex] = 10 + 10 = 20

Since the sum of the squares of the shorter sides is equal to the square of the longest side.

So, the points 3 + i, 6, and 4 + 4i are vertices of a right triangle.
