Answer:

x = 51

Step-by-step explanation:

If the mean = 11.5, then that means all numbers added together divided by four = 11.5. Let's write this algebraically:

[tex]\frac{12.5+(-10)+(-7.5)+x}{4}=11.5[/tex]

Now, let's solve for x:

Determine the solution to each linear system by using the substitution method
3x+2y=4
2x-y=5

Answers

Answer:

The solution is x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

i) 3x+2y=4

ii) 2x-y=5

Let's isolate y for the second equation

2x-y=5

2x-5 = y

y = 2x-5

Now use this y and substitute it in the first equation.

3x+2y=4

3x + 2(2x-5) = 4

3x + 4x - 10 = 4

7x / 7 = 14 / 7

x = 2

An integer number is chosen randomly between 1 and 1000. What is the probability that the number picked is divisible by 3 or 5 (i. E. , either 3 or 5 or both)?

Answers

Answer:

Umm..... sorry but.....my answer came.......

The probability that the number picked is divisible by 3 or 5 is 0.555.

What is probability?

Probability sampling is defined as a sampling technique in which the researcher chooses samples from a larger population using a method based on the theory of probability.

An integer number is chosen randomly between 1 and 1000.

The number of numbers divisible by 3, which is;

[tex]\rm \dfrac{1000}{3}=3333.3 = 333[/tex]

The number of numbers divisible by 5, which is;

[tex]\rm \dfrac{1000}{5}=200[/tex]

The probability that the number picked is divisible by 3 or 5 is;

[tex]\rm Probability=\dfrac{Number \ divisble \ by \ 3+ Number \ divisble \ by \ 5}{1000}\\\\ Probability =\dfrac{333+200}{1000}\\\\Probability=\dfrac{533}{1000}\\\\Probability=0.533[/tex]

Hence, the probability that the number picked is divisible by 3 or 5 is 0.555.

For what values of x will the function f(x) = 5x^2 + x - 6 equal zero?

A)x = -3 or 2

B)x=6/5 or -1

C)x = 3 or -2

D)x = -6/5 or 1

Answers

5x² + x - 6 = 0

Δ = 1² - 4*5*(-6) = 121 = 11²

x' = (-1 - 11) / (2x5) = -12/10 = - 6/5

x" = (-1 + 11) / (2x5) = 10/10 = 1

=> D

The values of x will the function [tex]f (x) = 5x^2 + x - 6[/tex] equal zero are x = - 6/5 and x = 1. Hence option D is true.

Used the concept of a quadratic equation that states,

An algebraic equation with the second degree of the variable is called a Quadratic equation.

Example; ax² + bx + c = 0

Given that the quadratic equation,

[tex]f (x) = 5x^2 + x - 6[/tex]

Now for the values of x at which the function equals zero, we have to find the zeroes of the function by using the factorization method.

[tex]f (x) = 5x^2 + x - 6[/tex]

[tex]f (x) = 5x^2 + (6 - 5)x - 6[/tex]

[tex]f (x) = 5x^2 + 6x - 5x - 6[/tex]

[tex]f (x) = x (5x + 6) - 1 (5x + 6)[/tex]

[tex]f (x) = (5x + 6) (x - 1)[/tex]

Hence, the value of zeroes,

[tex]5x + 6 = 0[/tex]

[tex]5x = - 6[/tex]

[tex]x = \dfrac{- 6}{5}[/tex]

And, [tex]x - 1 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x = 1[/tex]

So, the value of x is x = - 6/5 and x = 1. Hence option D is true.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Formulae

Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height

Area of a rectangle = width x length

Question 1

Surface area of square based pyramid = area of base + 4 × area of triangle

⇒ SA = (6 × 6) + 4(1/2 × 6 × 14)

         = 36 + 168

         = 204 yd²

Question 2

Surface area of a cuboid = 2 × base area + 2 × end area + 2 × side area

⇒ SA = 2(10 × 6) + 2(6 × 3) + 2(10 × 3)

         = 120 + 36 + 60

         = 216 mm²

Extra credit question

Surface area of a triangular based prism = base area + 2 × triangle area + 2 × side areas

base area = 3 × 10 = 30 mm²

triangle area = 1/2 × 3 × 2 = 3 mm²

side area = 10 × 2.5 = 25 mm²

⇒ total SA = 30 + (2 × 3) + (2 × 25)

                 = 30 + 6 + 50

                 = 86 mm²

Concept :-

We can solve these questions by using the formulas of area of triangle and rectangle, which will make our work easier. So, we know that,

[tex] \blue{ \underline{ \boxed{ \begin{array}{cc} \sf1. ~Area_{Triangle} = \dfrac{1} {2} \times b \times h \qquad \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \\ \\ \sf2. \: Area_{Rectangle} = Length \times Breadth \end{array}}}} \\ \\ [/tex]

Using these formulas and figuring out the number of triangles and rectangles in each shape, we will solve this question.

Solution :-

1. In this square pyramid, if we closely observe, we will get to know that there are 1 rectangle and 4 triangular faces. Thus,

[tex]\sf \hookrightarrow Area=6 \times 6 + 4( \dfrac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 14) \\ \\ \\ \sf \hookrightarrow Area=36 + 168 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \\ \\ \sf \hookrightarrow Area= {204 \: yd}^{2} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ [/tex]

2. Now, here, we can use the formula of total surface area for cuboid, i.e.

TSA = 2( lb + bh + hl )

[tex]\sf \hookrightarrow Area=2(10 \times 6 + 6 \times 3 + 10 \times 3) \\ \\ \\ \sf \hookrightarrow Area=2(60 + 18 + 30) \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \\ \\ \sf \hookrightarrow Area=2 \times 108 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \\ \\ \sf \hookrightarrow Area= {216 \: mm}^{2} \: \: \qquad \qquad \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \\ [/tex]

Extra Credit Question.

Here, we can find out the total surface area by finding,

Base area i.e. length x breadth ( B.A. )

Side area i.e. length x breadth ( S.A. )

triangular area = 1/2 x b x h ( T.A. )

Now,

TSA = BA + 2 x S.A. + 2 x T.A.

[tex]\sf \hookrightarrow Area=(10 \times 3) + 2(10 \times 2.5) + 2(\dfrac{1}{2} \times 3 \times 2) \\ \\ \\ \sf \hookrightarrow Area= 30 + 2 \times 25 + 2 \times 3 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \\ \\ \sf \hookrightarrow Area=30 + 50 + 6 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \\ \\ \sf \hookrightarrow Area= {86 \: mm}^{2} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \\ [/tex]

With the given budget, the inequality that must be used is:

$5.5*s ≤ $350

Which inequality is the correct one?

We know that the budget is $500.

Then, we know that there is a fixed cost of $150, then the budget left is:

$500 - $150 = $350

With these $350 they pay the food for the students, which costs $5.50 per student.

So the number of students that can go must be such that:

s*$5.50 ≤ $350

There says that the cost in food for the s students must be smaller than or equal to the remaining $350.

So the correct option is the second one.

Step-by-step explanation:

To consider the fractions as "proportional", they must be equivalent. Let us assume that the fractions are equivalent. Then, we get;

[tex]\implies \dfrac{10}{24} = \dfrac{5}{12}[/tex]

When using cross multiplication, we get;

[tex]\implies \dfrac{10}{24} = \dfrac{5}{12}[/tex]

[tex]\implies 10 \times 12 = 24 \times 5[/tex]

When simplified, we get;

[tex]\implies 10 \times 12 = 24 \times 5[/tex]

[tex]\implies 120 = 120 \ \checkmark[/tex]

vertically stretched by a factor of 2, then translated
4 units left and 1 unit down

Answers

A vertical stretch of scale factor 2, followed by a translation of 4 units left and 1 unit down is written as:

g(x) = 2*f(x + 4) - 1

How to write the given transformation?

For a general function f(x), a vertical stretch of scale factor K is written as:

g(x) = K*f(x).

Horizontal translation:

For a general function f(x), a horizontal translation of N units is written as:

g(x) = f(x + N).

If N is positive, the shift is to the left.If N is negative, the shift is to the right.

Vertical translation:

For a general function f(x), a vertical translation of N units is written as:

g(x) = f(x) + N.

If N is positive, the shift is upwards.If N is negative, the shift is downwards.

So, if we start with a function f(x) and we stretch it vertically with a scale factor of 2, we get:

g(x) = 2*f(x)

Then we translate it 4 units left:

g(x) = 2*f(x + 4)

Then we translate 1 unit down:

g(x) = 2*f(x + 4) - 1

This is the equation for the transformation.
