Ellen divides a piece of fabric into 8 equal sections by drawing chalk lines. Then she cuts off 5 of the sections to make into placemats. What fraction of the fabric is left?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent the total fabric as an integer = 1

Ellen divides a piece of fabric into 8 equal sections by drawing chalk lines.

= 1/8, hence each section = 1/8

Then she cuts off 5 of the sections to make into placemats.

This is written as: 5 sections × 1/8 = 5/8

The fraction of the fabric that is left is calculated as:

1 - 5/8

Lowest Common Denominator = 8

Hence: 8 - 5/8 = 3/8

The fraction of the fabric that is left is 3/8

Complete Question:

A circle is shown. Chords A C and B D intersect at point E. The length of A E is x, the length of E C is x + 12, the length of B E is x + 2, and the length of E D is x + 5. BE is 2 units longer than AE, DE is 5 units longer than AE, and CE is 12 units longer than AE. What is BD?

*The circle is attached below in the attachment

Answer:

BD = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

AE = x

EC = x + 12

BE = x + 2

ED = x + 5

Required:

Length of BD

Solution:

First, create an equation to find the value of (x + 2)(x + 5) = (x)(x + 12) => intersecting chords theorem

x(x + 5) + 2(x + 5) = x(x + 12)

x² + 5x + 2x + 10 = x² + 12x

Add like terms

x² + 7x + 10 = x² + 12x

Subtract x² from each side

x² + 7x + 10 - x² = x² + 12x - x²

7x + 10 = 12x

10 = 12x - 7x

10 = 5x

10/5 = 5x/5

2 = x

x = 2

Next, find BD:

BD = BE + ED

BD = x + 2 + x + 5

Add like terms

BD = 2x + 7

Plug in the value of x

BD = 2(2) + 7

BD = 4 + 7

BD = 11

Toula has just baked a cake in the shape of a rectangle. She
wants to divide the cake into two right-angled triangles by
cutting along a diagonal of the cake. Toula is then going to place
a cake ribbon around the outside of each of the two triangular
pieces of cake. If the length of the cake is 32 cm and its width is
24 cm, how much cake ribbon will she need to buy, giving your
answer to an appropriate accuracy.

Answers

Answer:

192 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

length of the ribbon needed = perimeter of right angled triangle x 2

to determine perimeter, the value of the hypotenuse needs to be known

The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²

where a = length

b = base

c =  hypotenuse

32² + 24²

= 1024 + 576

= 1600

square root = 40

length of rope = 2 x (40 + 32 + 24) = 192

10. Use the vertical line test to determine if the graph below
represents a function. If it is not a function, tell where the
vertical line test fails.

Answers

The graph is a function. When drawing a vertical line, there will be two circumstances:

The line intersects only one point on a graph. The line intersects more than one point on a graph ( POI > 1 )

For the first circumstance, the graph that has only one intersect with a line - it is a function. For the second circumstance, the graph cannot be a function as it gives more than one y-value for a single x-value.

The conclusion is that if a line only has one intersect on a graph then it is a function. Otherwise, not a function but a relation instead. All functions are relations, but not all relations can be functions.

Answer

The graph passes the vertical line test and is a function.

Many firms use on-the-job training to teach their employees computer programming. Suppose you work in the personnel department of a firm that just finished training a group of its employees to program, and you have been requested to review the performance of one of the trainees on the final test that was given to all trainees. The mean and standard deviation of the test scores are 72 and 5, respectively, and the distribution of scores is bell-shaped and symmetric. Suppose the trainee in question received a score of 68. Compute the trainee's z-score.

Answers

Answer:

-0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean of test score, m = 72

Standard deviation of test score, σ = 5

Trainee's score, x = 68

Since the distribution is Symmetric ;

The Zscore Cann be calculated thus :

Zscore = (x - mean) / standard deviation

Zscore = (68 - 72) / 5

Zscore = - 4 / 5

Zscore = - 0.8

Angelo cuts a piece of wood for a project. The first cut is shown and can be represented by the equation y = 1/5x-1. The second cut needs to be parallel to the first.

Answers

Answer:

y = 1/5x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

If the second cut is parallel to the first, it will have the same slope.

So, it will have a slope of 1/5.

Plug in the slope and given point into y = mx + b, and solve for b:

y = mx + b

6 = 1/5(0) + b

6 = b

Plug in the slope and b into y = mx + b:

y = mx + b

y = 1/5x + 6

So, the equation of the second cut is y = 1/5x + 6

Được-

Phương trình =

Thay các giá trị của x = 0 vào phương trình đã cho ta được

4 ^ 0 + 4 ^ -0 = 2 ^ (0 + 1) - 2 ^ (1-0) + 4-m

1 +1 = 2 -2 + 4-m
