USING RATIOS An entrepreneur wants to rent a billboard at least 30 feet tall to display an advertisement for her business. She
is 5 feet 6 inches tall and casts a shadow 7 feet long. At the same time, a billboard casts a shadow 35 feet long. Is the billboard
tall enough? how do you solve this?

Answers

Answer 1

The billboard is not tall enough as the height is 27.5ft which is  less than 30ft.

The comparison of two quantities having the same units is called as Ratio.

ratio between quantity a and b is  represented by a:b .

In the given question

The bill board should have at least 30ft height.

Height of lady = 5 ft 6 inches

                        =5.5 ft     ...( as 6inch=0.5ft )

If the height of the lady is 5.5ft shadow length = 7 feet

Since the units of height of lady and length of shadow is same .

hence ratio can be used ,

also given that length of billboard = 35 ft.

Let the height of the bill board = x ft

The above situation can be represented using ratio as

(height of lady) / (length of shadow of lady)=(height of billboard)/( length of billboard shadow)

Substituting the values we get

5.5/7=x/35

On solving further we get

(5.5/7)*35=x

5.5*5=x

x=27.5

The height of the billboard is 27.5 ft  .

Since , it is given that the height of the bill board should be at least 30ft tall , and the height of the billboard is 27.5ft.

Therefore , the billboard is not tall enough as the height is less than 30ft.

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.

What time does the shipment arrive in Dallas (GMT -6) , if it departs Edmonton (GMT -7) at 14:45 p.m. on Thursday? United Airlines has a 3 hour 45 minutes flight.

Answers

At 17:30 the shipment arrive in Dallas (GMT -6) , if it departs Edmonton (GMT -7) at 14:45 p.m. on Thursday.

                   

The time difference of two zone is -7-(-6) = -1

The shipment departs at 14:45 pm

flight took time = 3:45 min

adding the time = 14:45 + 3:45

                           = 18:30

So it arrived at Dallas at 18:30 according to Edmonton (GMT -7)

It arrived in Dallas according to Dallas (GMT -6) = 18:30 - 1 hour

A time zone is a region where everyone adheres to the same standard time for social, business, and legal activities.

Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), which ranges from UTC12:00 to UTC+14:00, is used to determine all time zones. Most zones have full hour offsets, but some, like those in India, South Australia, and Nepal, have additional offsets of 30 or 45 minutes.

A rational number is any number that can be written as a fraction, where both the numerator (the top number) and the denominator (the bottom number) are integers, and the denominator is not equal to zero. In other words, a rational number can be expressed as p/q, where p and q are both integers and q ≠ 0.

given that one fifth times w equals negative one eight

we have to find the value of w

one fifth = 1/5

one fifth times w = (1/5)* w

Of these, 24% live more than seven miles
from their school. What percentage of the
students travel over seven miles to school
by train? Give your answer to 2 d.p.

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

In percentage:

= 9 %

Therefore, we get that, the percentage of the students travel over seven miles to school by train is 9 %.

Jonathan invests $4100 in two different accounts. The first account paid 4 %, the second account paid 13 % in interest. At the end of the first year he had earned $299 in interest. How much was in each account?

$ _____________ at 4 %

$ _____________ 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

b = $1500

a = 4100 - 1500 = $2,600

Answers

The cost of a ride for an individual person will be $10.5

It is given that Mel and 5 friends went to ride which makes the Total number of people for the Ride will be 6. Also, Four of them rented Helmets for the rides each helmet cost $3. It is also given that the total cost of helmets and rides is $75. From this we get :

Total people = 6, Helmet cost = 4*3 = $12, and Total cost = $75

Taking the cost of a ride as 'x' we get the equation representing this statement:  

              => 4*3 + 6x = 75  =>  6x = 63

              =>  x = 10.5

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

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.

Answers

the salesperson will be paid $ 844.2 for the one pickup they sell for $ 18,760 as 4.5 % commission is theirs.

We are given that the selling price of a pick up item is given as:

Selling price = $ 18,760

Now, it is also given that, on every sale, the salesperson gain a commission of 4.5 % as their pay.

The money they get paid for one pick up that they sell will be calculated by finding the percentage. So, we get that:

Money = 4.5 % of $ 18,760

Money = 4.5 / 100 × $ 18,760

Money = 0.045 × $ 18,760

Money =  $ 844.2
