Five more than a number is equal to seven-halves of the number What is the number?
HELP

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The number is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To attempt this question, we need to represent the number with (x).

Let the number be x

Five more than the number is:

5 + x

Seven-halves means 1/2 × 7 = 7/2

Mathematically, the question is saying:

5 + x = 7/2 × x

5 + x = 7x/2

Cross multiply;

2(5 + x) = 7x

10 + 2x = 7x

We collect like terms;

10 = 7x - 2x

10 = 5x

x = 10/5

x = 2

The number represented by x is 2

Answer 2

We want to convert the given sentence into an equation, and then solve it. We will see that the number is 2.

Finding the equation

We start with the sentence:

"Five more than a number is equal to seven-halves of the number"

if we define x as the number, we can write:

5 + x = (7/2)*x

Now we can solve this equation for x, we will get:

5 + x = (7/2)*x

5 = (7/2)*x - x = (7/2 - 1)*x

5 = (7/2 - 2/2)*x = (5/2)*x

(2/5)*5 = x

2 = x

So the number is 2.

The total length of wires A,B and C is 445cm. Wire A is 45cm longer then wire B,and wire B is half as long as wire C. How long is wire A?

Answers

Answer:

A = 145cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A+B+C = 445cm  

b = 1/2c

a = b+45  =  1/2c + 45

445 = c + (0.5c) + (0.5c + 45)

445 = 2c + 45

445 - 45 = 2c

400/2 = c

c = 200cm

a = 1/2c + 45 = 1/2*200 + 45 = 100 + 45 = 145cm

Step-by-step explanation:

If we know she will have a 25% discount, we know she will only pay 75%. So you divide by 4 and get 6. So now, If we subtract 25% (6), our 75% will be 18.

Answer:

It's 18

Step-by-step explanation:

25 percent of 24 is 6 dollars, subtract 6 from 24, you get 18, your welcome :D

The average age of all the JSOM students is 24 years with a standard deviation of 9 years. Of 8,000 students, a random sample of 36 students is selected. What is the probability that the sample mean will be between 25.5 and 27 years?

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the sample mean will be between 25.5 and 27 years is 0.1359.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X denote of age of JSOM students.

The information provided is:

[tex]\mu=24\\\sigma=9\\n=36[/tex]

According to the Central Limit Theorem if an unknown population is selected with mean μ and standard deviation σ and appropriately huge random samples (n > 30) are selected from this population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally.  

Then, the mean of the sample means is given by,

[tex]\mu_{\bar x}=\mu\\[/tex]

And the standard deviation of the sample means is given by,

[tex]\sigma_{\bar x}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

As the sample size is large, i.e. n = 36 > 30, the sampling distribution of the average age of all the JSOM students can be approximated by the normal distribution.

Compute the probability that the sample mean will be between 25.5 and 27 years as follows:

[tex]P(25.5<\bar X<27)=P(\frac{25.5-24}{9/\sqrt{36}}<\frac{\bar X-\mu_{\bar x}}{\sigma_{\bar x}}<\frac{27-24}{9/\sqrt{36}})\\\\=P(1<Z<2)\\\\=P(Z<2)-P(Z<1)\\\\=0.97725-0.84134\\\\=0.13591\\\\\approx 0.1359[/tex]

Thus, the probability that the sample mean will be between 25.5 and 27 years is 0.1359.

What is the Additive inverse of -7?​

Answers

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Two numbers are additive inverses if they add to give a sum of zero. 3 and -3 are additive inverses since 3 + (-3) = 0. -3 is the additive inverse of 3. 3 is the additive inverse of -3.

The additive inverse of a number is a number that is the same distance from 0 on the number line, but in the opposite direction. It can also be thought of as the number that you need to add to a number in order for the result to be 0.

Examples

In the number line below, -3 and 3 are additive inverses. If we add the other value to either of the two values, the result will be 0.

-3 + 3 = 0

3 - 3 = 0

The same is true of the other corresponding values on the number line; 5 and -5, 4 and -4, 2 and -2, 1 and -1, and even 0 and 0, are all also additive inverses.

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

The additive inverse of a number is is the number that, when added to it, yields zero.

Priya and Joe travel the same 16.8 km route. Priya starts at 9.00 am and walks at a constant speed of 6 km/h Joe starts at 9.30 am and runs at a constant speed. Joe overtakes Priya at 10.20 am At what time does Joe finish the route?

Answers

Answer:

12:05 PM

Step-by-step explanation:

Priya started at 9:00 AM.

Speed of Priya = 6 km/hr

Joe started at 9:30 AM.

Time at which Joe overtakes Priya = 10:20 AM

Total time taken by Priya = 1 hour 20 min = [tex]\frac{4}{3}\ hr[/tex]

Total time taken by Joe = 50 min = [tex]\frac{5}{6}\ hr[/tex]

Distance traveled by Priya and Joe is same.

Formula for distance is:

[tex]Distance =Speed\times Time[/tex]

Distance covered by Priya = [tex]6 \times \frac{4}{3}[/tex] km

Let speed of Joe = [tex]S[/tex] km/h

Distance covered by Joe = [tex]S \times \frac{5}{6}[/tex]

[tex]S \times \dfrac{5}{6} = 6 \times \dfrac{4}{3}\\\Rightarrow S =\dfrac{48}{5}\ km/hr[/tex]

Total distance to be covered = 16.8 km

Total time to be taken by Joe =

[tex]\dfrac{16.8}{\frac{48}5} = \dfrac{16.8\times 5}{48} = \dfrac{84}{48} = 1.75\ hours[/tex]

1.75 hours mean 1 hour and 45 minutes.

Finishing time at which Joe finishes = 9:30 AM + 1 hour 45 minutes = 12:05 PM

What is the quotient remainder theorem?

The quotient-remainder theorem says that when any integer n is divided by any positive integer d, the result is a quotient q and a nonnegative remainder r that is smaller than d.

Given here, P(x)=x⁴ - 2x³ - 3x² + 4

Now we know from the polynomial remainder theorem that the remainder on dividing by (x-a) is f(a)

Thus P(3)=8

Hence, The remainder is 8

What is the probability that the sample proportion exceeds 0.84?

Answers

Answer:

0.9495

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Population proportion; p = 90% = 0.9

Sample size; n = 100

Sample Proportion; p^ = 0.84

Formula to find the probability that sample proportion exceeds 0.84 is;

Z = P(p^ > 0.84) = (p - p^)/√(p^(1 - p^)/n)

Z = (0.84 - 0.9)/√(0.84(1 - 0.84)/100)

Z = -0.06/0.03666

Z = -1.64

From online z-score calculator attached, the probability is;
