pound?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$1.5/pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of pounds  = 8pounds

Cost of pasta = $12

Now;

  Unknown:

           cost per pound of pasta

Solution:

To find the cost per pound of pasta;

 Cost per pound of pasta  = [tex]\frac{cost of pasta}{number of pasta}[/tex]  

  Cost per pound of pasta = [tex]\frac{12}{8}[/tex]   = $1.5/pound

Explanation:

Choice B is one answer because -2 and 2 are additive inverses that add to -2+2 = 0

Choice D is a similar story. We have -5+5 = 0

In general, if x is some number then -x is its additive inverse. So we can say x+(-x) = 0 or -x+x = 0. In short, additive inverses add to 0.

You have asked to design a rectangle box with a square base and an open top. The volume of the box must be620 cm to the 3rd power. the cost of the material for the base is $0.40 per square cm and the cost of the material for the side is $0.10 per square cm.How to determine the dimension of the box that will minimize the cost of manufacturing. What is the minimum cost? in dollars and rounded to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

$69.21

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the box has a square base the length and breadth of the box will be equal. Let it be [tex]x[/tex]

Let h be the height of the box

V = Volume of the box = [tex]620\ \text{cm}^3[/tex]

[tex]x^2h=620\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{620}{x^2}[/tex]

Now surface area of the box with an open top is given

[tex]s=x^2+4xh\\\Rightarrow s=x^2+4x\dfrac{620}{x^2}\\\Rightarrow s=x^2+\dfrac{2480}{x}[/tex]

Differentiating with respect to x we get

[tex]\dfrac{ds}{dx}=2x-\dfrac{2480}{x^2}[/tex]

Equating with zero

[tex]0=2x-\dfrac{2480}{x^2}\\\Rightarrow 2x^3-2480=0\\\Rightarrow x^3=\dfrac{2480}{2}\\\Rightarrow x=(1240)^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow x=10.74[/tex]

Double derivative of the function

[tex]\dfrac{d^2s}{ds^2}=2+\dfrac{4960}{x^3}=2+\dfrac{4960}{1240}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{d^2s}{ds^2}=6>0[/tex]

So, x at 10.74 is the minimum value of the function.

[tex]h=\dfrac{620}{x^2}\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{620}{10.74^2}\\\Rightarrow h=5.37[/tex]

So, minimum length and breadth of the box is 10.74 cm while the height of the box is 5.37 cm.

The total area of the sides is [tex]4xh=4\times 10.74\times 5.37=230.7\ \text{cm}^2[/tex]

The area of the base is [tex]x^2=10.74^2=115.35\ \text{cm}^2[/tex]

Cost of the base is $0.40 per square cm

Cost of the side is  $0.10 per square cm

Minimum cost would be

[tex]230.7\times 0.1+0.4\times 115.34=\$69.21[/tex]

The minimum cost of the box is 69.21 dollars.

In the diagram below, triangle A is similar to triangle B. What is the value of n?

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ∆A is similar to ∆B, therefore, the ratio of their corresponding sides would be equal.

Thus:

[tex] \frac{10}{n + 2} = 2 [/tex]

Multiply both sides by (n + 2)

Sampling Bias is case, in which some section of population have higher or lower chance of being selected in sample than others.

'Elizabeth wants to estimate the mean vacation days of coworkers at her company. She collects data by selecting a random group of coworkers within her department'. This case is of Convenience Sampling, where person selects sample only as per his/ her convenience.

Elizabeth has conveniently chosen sample workers from her department, so they have higher chance of being in sample, others have lesser chance.  Hence, this is Sampling Bias

It is assumed that the test results for a class follow a normal distribution with a mean of 78 and a standard deviation of 36. If you know that a student's grade is greater than 72, what is the probability that it is greater than 84? What do I know? What do I want to find out? What do we expect the answer to be? How do I go from what I know to what I want to find? Does this answer seem reasonable?

Answers

Answer:

0.7143

- You know the minimum possible grade of the student

- You want to find out the probability that that grade which is greater than 72 is also greater than 84

- Expect the answer to be 0.7143

- The explanation/steps is given below

- The answer seems (and is) reasonable. You only created a new lower limit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribution Type: Normal

Mean: 78

Standard deviation: 36

Range of marks: [78 - 36], [78 + 36]  = [42 to 114]

If you know that a student's grade is greater than 72, what is the probability that it's greater than 84?

In this case, the full probability level is between 72 and the upper limit of 114 (instead of between 42 and 114). First, find the fraction of this probability.

[114 - 72] ÷ [114 - 42]  = 42/72  = 0.5833

So, the probability of a student's mark falling between 72 and 114 is 0.5833.

Now making this a whole interval, 114 - 72 = 42

What fraction of this interval of 42 will bear marks between 84 and 114?

[114 - 84]  = 30

30/42  = 0.7143

Because of the first part of the question "If you know (are sure) that a student's grade is greater than 72...", your answer stops at 0.7143, since 72 was used as the lower limit.

A friend gives you two baseball cards for your birthday. Afterward you begin collecting them. You buy the same number of cards once each week. The equation y=4x +2 describes the number of cards ,y, you have after x weeks.

Answers

Answer: x and y have the same absolute value. Also, x is a positive number, and y is a negative number.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The slope is 2, while the y-intercept is 4. This equation represents starting with 4 cards and adding  2 cards each week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation which describes the number of cards, y, you have after x weeks: y=2x+4

Comparing this with the slope intercept form of the equation of the line: y=mx+b, where:

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept.

We have that:

Slope, m=2.

A slope of 2 indicates that you buy 2 cards per week.

The y-intercept of the line, b=4.

This is the starting value. In this case, it represents the number of cards you were given by your friend.

The slope is 2, while the y-intercept is 4. This equation represents starting with  4 cards and adding  2 cards each week.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P(-a<z<a)=0.60, from the symmetry of normal distribution, P(z<a) = 0.60+ (1-0.60)/2 =

0.60+0.4/2

0.60+0.2

= 0.8

Considering the standard normal distribution table, we have a = 0.80, thus

z =(x-m)/std = 0.80

the maximum x = m + 0.80×std =

Where m = 246300

Std = 15000

246300+0.80×15000

= 246300+12000

= 258300

For the minimum x

x = m - 0.80×std

x = 246300-0.80×15000

246300-12000

= 234300

If m<1=55, find m<8.

About 7% of the population has a particular genetic mutation. 400 people are randomly selected. Find the standard deviation for the number of people with the genetic mutation in such groups of 400.

Answers

Answer:

5.10 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation to Find the standard deviation for the number of people with the genetic mutation

Using this formula

Standard deviation = √ ( n * p * q)

Where,

n = 400

p = .07

q = 100%-7% = 93% or .93

Let plug in the formula

Standard deviation =√400*07*.93

Standard deviation =√26.04

Standard deviation = 5.10 people

Therefore the standard deviation for the number of people with the genetic mutation is 5.10 people.

After a reflection across line y=x the vertices of triangle P’Q’R’ are as follows
P’= (-1,-7)
Q’= (-8-7)
R’= (-3,3)

The vertices of the image triangle reflected across the line y = x are P'( -1, -7), Q'( -8, -7), and R'( -3, 3).

Therefore, the correct answer is:

P'( -1, -7), Q'( -8, -7), R'( -3, 3)

Here,

To find the image of the triangle vertices reflected across the line y = x, we need to swap the x-coordinates with the y-coordinates.

Original vertices of the triangle:

P(-7, -1)

Q(-7, -8)

R(3, -3)

Now, swap the x and y coordinates to get the reflected image:

Reflected image vertices:

P'( -1, -7)

Q'( -8, -7)

R'( -3, 3)

So, the vertices of the image triangle reflected across the line y = x are P'( -1, -7), Q'( -8, -7), and R'( -3, 3).

Therefore, the correct answer is:

P'( -1, -7), Q'( -8, -7), R'( -3, 3).
