John had a roll containing 24 2/3 feet of wrapping paper. He wants to divide it into 11 pieces. First, though, he must cut off 5/6 foot because it was torn. How long will each piece be?

Answers

Answer 1

We are given a total size of 24 2/3 feet of wrapping paper. Convert this into fraction of denominator 6:

total paper = 24 2/3 = 74/3 = 148/6 feet

 

Subtract 5/6 foot:

remaining paper = 148/6 – 5/6 = 143/6 feet

 

Divide by 11:

each piece = (143/6) ft / 11 = 143/66  ft = 2.17 ft

Answer 2

Given

John had a roll containing of wrapping paper  

[tex]=24\tfrac{2}{3}[/tex]

First, he must cut off 5/6 foot because it was torn.

He wants to divide it into 11 pieces.

To proof

As given in question

John had a roll containing of wrapping paper

[tex]=24\tfrac{2}{3}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{74}{3}[/tex]    ( solving the mixed fraction form)

 First, though, he must cut off 5/6 foot

than we get

[tex]= \frac{74}{3} - \frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Taking the L.C.M of 3 and 6 is 6

[tex]=\frac{148-5}{6}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{143}{6}[/tex]

=23.83 feet (approx)

He wants to divide it into 11 piece

length of the each piece

[tex]=\frac{23.83}{11}[/tex]

length of the each pieces be 2.16 feet ( approx)

Hence proved

Step-by-step explanation:

A restaurant earns $1073 on Friday and $1108 on Saturday. Write and solve an equation to find the amount xx (in dollars) the restaurant needs to earn on Sunday to average $1000 per day over the three-day period. Write your equation so that the units on each side of the equation are dollars per day.

Answers

$819 to make an average 1,000 within 3 day period
(1073 + 1108 + x) / 3 = 1000
(2181 + x) / 3 = 1000
2181 + x = 1000 * 3
2181 + x = 3000
x = 3000 - 2181
x = 819 <=== the restaurant would need to make $ 819

At Avery Middle School, 273 students responded to a survey asking whether a Bulldog, a Lion, or a Tiger should be the new school mascot. Four times as many students chose Bulldog as chose Tiger. Twice as many students chose Lion as chose Tiger. How many students chose Lion?

Answers

b = amount of students who chose Bulldog

n = amount of students who chose lion

t = amount of students who chose tiger

so.. "t" chose tiger, ok

"Four times as many students chose Bulldog as chose Tiger"
namely, if "t" chose tiger, then 4 times that many chose Bulldog, thus

b = 4t

"Twice as many students chose Lion as chose Tiger"
namely, if "t" students chose tiger, twice as many chose lion

n = 2t

now, we know a total of 273 students were surveyed, thus

[tex]\bf \begin{cases} b+n+t=273\\ \boxed{4t}+\boxed{2t}+t=273 \end{cases} \\\\\\ 7t=273\implies t=\cfrac{273}{7}\impliedby \textit{that many chose \underline{tiger}}[/tex]

Answer:

78 students chose lion.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x students chose tiger.

Let y students chose bull dog.

Let z students chose lion.

Total students = 273

[tex]x+y+z=273[/tex]           ....(1)

Four times as many students chose Bulldog as chose Tiger.

[tex]y=4x[/tex]

Twice as many students chose Lion as chose Tiger.

[tex]z=2x[/tex]

Substituting the values of y and z in (1)

[tex]x+4x+2x=273[/tex]

=> [tex]7x=273[/tex]

x = 39   (students who chose tiger)

We have to find students who chose Lion or z (defined above)

[tex]z=2x[/tex]

[tex]z=2(39)[/tex]

So, z = 78

Therefore, 78 students chose lion.

Fritz drives to work his trip takes 36 ​minutes, but when he takes the train it takes 20 minutes. Find the distance Fritz travels to work if the train travels an average of 32 miles per hour faster than his driving. Assume that the train travels the same distance as the car.

Answers

recall your d = rt, distance = rate * time

so, let's say Fritz travel by Car at a speed of "r", if the Train runs faster then his car, then the Train runs at "r+32".

Bear in mind that, he travels from home to work by Car or Train, so, the distance if the same for either vehicle, let's say is "d" miles.

[tex]\bf \begin{array}{lccclll} &\stackrel{miles}{distance}&\stackrel{mph}{rate}&\stackrel{minutes}{time}\\ &-----&-----&-----\\ Car&d&r&36\\ Train&d&r+32&20 \end{array} \\\\\\ \begin{cases} \boxed{d}=36r\\ d=20(r+32)\\ ----------\\ \boxed{36r}=20(r+32) \end{cases} \\\\\\ \cfrac{36r}{20}=r+32\implies \cfrac{9r}{5}=r+32\implies 9r=5r+160 \\\\\\ 4r=160\implies r=\cfrac{160}{4}\implies \boxed{r=40}[/tex]

so... he travels at 40mph for 36 minutes, now, 36minutes is not even an hour, is 36/60 or 3/5 hr, so...    [tex]\bf 40\cdot \cfrac{36}{60}\implies 40\cdot \cfrac{3}{5}\implies \stackrel{miles}{24}[/tex]

The distance Fritz travels to work is 24 miles if Fritz drives to work his trip takes 36 minutes, but when he takes the train it takes 20 minutes.

What is the distance?

Distance is a numerical representation of the distance between two items or locations. Distance refers to a physical length or an approximation based on other physics or common usage considerations.

It is given that:

Fritz drives to work his trip takes 36 ​minutes, but when he takes the train it takes 20 minutes.

Let the distance Fritz travels to work is x.

As we know,

1 hour = 60 minutes

36/60 = 0.6 hrs

20/60 = 0.33 hrs

Speed = distance/time

Train speed - drive speed = 32

x/0.33 - x/0.6 = 32

After simplification:

9d - 5x = 96

4x = 96

x = 96/4

d = 24 miles

Thus, the distance Fritz travels to work is 24 miles if Fritz drives to work his trip takes 36 minutes, but when he takes the train it takes 20 minutes.

Hope this helps

Answer:

y = sin 4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

A sine function is represented as y = a sin(bx + c) + d

Given values in the question are a = amplitude = 1

period = π/2 = 2π/b

Vertical shift d = 3 units up.

Horizontal shift c = 0

Since 2π/b = π/2

[tex]b=\frac{2\pi }{\frac{\pi }{2}} =\frac{4\pi }{\pi }=4[/tex]

Now the sinusoidal function will be

y = 1. sin( 4x ) + 3

y = sin 4x + 3

For each function f(n) and time t in the table, determine the largest size n of a problem that can be solved in time t, assuming that the algorithm to solve the problem takes f(n) microseconds

Answers

The question involves estimating the largest problem size a one-teraflop computer can solve in a given time, by equating the time complexity function of the problem to the number of operations the computer can perform per second, and solving for n.

The task is to estimate the largest problem size n that can be solved by a one-teraflop machine within a given time t. A teraflop machine is capable of performing 1012 operations per second. To determine n, we must consider the time complexity function f(n) that describes how the number of operations grows with the size of the problem. Given that the machine can perform 1012 instructions per second, and t is measured in microseconds, we first convert t to seconds.

For example, if the function f(n) follows a linear time complexity, such as f(n) = n, and the computation time t is 1 second, the largest problem size that can be solved is 1012, since the machine can perform 1012 operations in one second.

If the computational complexity is higher, say quadratic as f(n) = n2, we would solve for n in the equation n2 = 1012 to find the largest n that can be solved within 1 second.

Similarly, for more complex functions, we would find the value of n that satisfies the equation f(n) = 1012 * t in seconds, ensuring the result is within the operational constraints of the machine.

how do you equally divide 12 cookies with 8 people. what fraction of cookies would each person receive?

Answers

each person would receive 1 and an half cookies.
in other words 1 1/2

Final answer:

To equally divide 12 cookies among 8 people, each person would receive 1 1/2 or 1.5 cookies, which is a fraction of 3/2 per person when simplified.

Explanation:

To divide 12 cookies equally among 8 people, we need to perform a simple division operation where 12 (total number of cookies) is divided by 8 (number of people). Mathematically, this can be represented as 12/8 which simplifies to 1 1/2 or 1.5 cookies per person. This means that each person would receive one and a half cookies.

If the problem requires the answer as a fraction, we can simplify 12/8 by dividing both numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 4 in this case. Thus, we get 12/8 = (12÷4) / (8÷4) = 3/2. Therefore, each person gets 3/2 or one and a half cookies.

Find a ·

Final answer:

To find the dot product of vectors a and b, we can use the formula: a · b = |a| |b| cos θ, where |a| and |b| are the magnitudes of vectors a and b, and θ is the angle between them.

Explanation:

To find the dot product of vectors a and b, we can use the formula: a · b = |a| |b| cos θ, where |a| and |b| are the magnitudes of vectors a and b, and θ is the angle between them.

In this case, |a| = 60 and |b| = 30. The angle between a and b is given as 3π/4.

Therefore, a · b = 60 * 30 * cos (3π/4) = 60 * 30 * (-√2/2) = -1800√2.
