Answers

Answer 1
A counter-example could be

There are more than 3 marbles in the bag, and the other ones are red.

Hope this helps!
Answer 2

A counterexample showing the conclusion 'All the marbles in the bag are black' as false.

A counterexample is a scenario where the premises are true but the conclusion is false, demonstrating the invalidity of an argument. In this case, to prove invalidity, a counterexample could be a situation where there is at least one marble in the bag that is not black. For instance, if there are three black marbles and one red marble inside the bag, the selection of three black marbles is still possible, but the conclusion that all marbles are black is false.

The value of 110 coins, consisting of dimes and quarters, is $20.30. how many of each kind of coin are there?

Answers

d + q = 110......d = 110 - q
0.10d + 0.25q = 20.30

0.10(110 - q) + 0.25q = 20.30
11 - 0.10q + 0.25q = 20.30
-0.10q + 0.25q = 20.30 - 11
0.15q = 9.30
q = 9.30/0.15
q = 62 <==== there are 62 quarters

d = 110 - q
d = 110 - 62
d = 48 <==== there are 48 dimes

Sheila is building a model for class. It's a tower that's designed to withstand high winds. She can use a maximum of 700 support beams and knows that each floor will require 22 beams. Sheila will track the number of beams that remain as she adds floors.
She can predict the number of beams that remain by using this function: remaining beams (y) is function of floor number (x).
How many beams will remain after she built 6 floors? Y=700-22(x)

Answers

700-132, which is 578 beams remaining.
Well.... 22 beams per floor. so 22(6) = 132
then, after having 700 beams, she used 12, so: 700 - 132 = 568
So. 568 beams remain.

which equation best represents the line graphed above

Answers

Hi there!

The correct answer is option B

--------------------------------------------

Since x = -4 is a vertical line(perpendicular to horizontal), so there is no y-intercept and the slope is undefined.

"A vertical line has undefined slope because all points on the line have the same x-coordinate.

So, the slope is undefined and we also don't have the y - intercept.

The correct answer is option B. The equation best represents the line graphed is x = -4.

What is an equation of a line?

An equation of the line is defined as a linear equation having a degree of one. The equation of the line contains two variables x and y. And the third parameter is the slope of the line which represents the elevation of the line.

Since x = -4 is a vertical line(perpendicular to horizontal), there is no y-intercept and the slope is undefined.

A vertical line has an undefined slope because all points on the line have the same x-coordinate.

So, the slope is undefined and we also don't have the y-intercept.

Answers

2x + 12 = 18
18 - 12 = 6

2x + 12 = 18 OR 2x + 12 = -18
subtract both sides by 12 for both equations
2x = 6 OR 2x = -30

What is the perimeter of the triangle shown on the coordinate plane, to the nearest tenth of a unit?


24.8 units

27.8 units

28.5 units

30.9 units

Answers

To calculate the perimeter, consider each side separately.

Left side: This side is easiest - it's a straight vertical line that's 8 units long.

Top side: If you look carefully, this side is really the hypotenuse of a triangle that is 5 units tall and 9 units long. Using the Pythagorean Theorem, you can calculate the length of the hypotenuse to be 5^2 + 9^2 = c^2 --> c = 10.3

Bottom side: Just like the top side, this side is the hypotenuse of a triangle that is 3 units tall and 9 units long. Pythagoras again: 3^2 + 9^2 = c^2 --> c = 9.5

Add these sides up for the final perimeter: 8 + 10.3 + 9.5 = 27.8

Answer:

The answer would be 27.8

x+2y<=9
x>=0
y>=0

Maximum for P=2x+y

A. P=3
B. P=4
C. P=6
D. P=10

Answers

Answer:

x=1, y=4

P=6

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

[tex]3x+y\leq 7[/tex]

[tex]x+2y\leq 9[/tex]

[tex]x\geq 0[/tex]

[tex]y\geq 0[/tex]

Objective function

[tex]P=2x+y[/tex]

We have to values of x and y that maximize the P and maximum value of P .

First we change inequality equation into equality equation

[tex]3x+y=7[/tex]  (I equation )

[tex]x+2y=9[/tex]  (II equation)

Equation I multiply by 2 and then subtract from II equation

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

[tex]x=1[/tex]

Substitute x=1 in equation I

Then, we get

[tex]3(1)+y=7[/tex]

[tex]3+y=7[/tex]

[tex]y=7-3=4[/tex]

The two equation intersect at point (1,4).

Substitute x=0 in equation I

Then , we get y=7

Substitute y=0 then

[tex]3x=7[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{7}{3}=2.3[/tex]

The equation I cut the x- axis at point (2.3,0)and y-axis at (0,7).

Substitute x=0 in equtaion II

[tex]2y=9[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{9}{2}=4.5[/tex]

Substitute y=0

Then, we get

[tex]x=9[/tex]

Therefore, the equation II cut the x- axis at point (9,0) and y axis at point (0,4.5).

Substitute x=0 and y=0 in inequality Equation I

[tex]3(0)+0=0< 7[/tex]

It is true . Therefore, shaded region below the line.

Substitute x=0 and y=0 in inequality equation II

Then, [tex]0+2(0)=0 < 9[/tex]

It is true. Therefore, the shaded region below the line.

The feasible region is bounded.The feasible region bounded by (0,0),(0,4.5),(2.3,0) and (1,4).

At (0,4.5)

[tex]P=2(0)+4.5=4.5[/tex]

At (2.3,0)

[tex]P=2(2.3)+0=4.6[/tex]

At (1,4)

[tex]P=2(1)+4=6[/tex]

At (0,0)

[tex]P=2(0)+0=0[/tex]

Hence, maximum value of P is 6 at (1,4).

hope i helped

The  coordinates of d and e b. d = –2, e = 12.

To find the coordinates of points D and E, we need to remember that they are the same distance from point F, which has a coordinate of 5. This means D and E are equidistant from F on the number line. Let's check each option to see which one satisfies this condition:

Option a: d = -7, e = -1

The distance from -7 to 5 is 12.

The distance from -1 to 5 is 6.

Since the distances are not equal, this option is incorrect.

Option b: d = -2, e = 12

The distance from -2 to 5 is 7.

The distance from 12 to 5 is also 7.

Since the distances are equal, this option is correct.

Option c: d = 0, e = 5

The distance from 0 to 5 is 5.

The distance from 5 to 5 is 0.

Since the distances are not equal, this option is incorrect.

Option d: d = 8, e = 11

The distance from 8 to 5 is 3.

The distance from 11 to 5 is 6.

Since the distances are not equal, this option is incorrect.

Therefore, the correct answer is option b: d = -2, e = 12.

Just took the same quiz.

The slope is 2.
The slope represents the number of miles hiked every hour.

Answer:

The slope is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function graphed shows the total distance she hiked, in miles, after x hours on the second day.

Seeing at the graph, we have the following points.

(2,8) , (3,10) , (4,12)

For slope we will do the following.

[tex]\frac{10-8}{3-2} =\frac{2}{1}[/tex] = 2

[tex]\frac{12-10}{4-3} =\frac{2}{1}[/tex] = 2

So, the slope is 2.

The slope represents that 2 miles is hiked in each hour.

Answers

P = Pat
C = Cousin Zach

2C + 6 = P
2C + 6 - 6= P - 6
2C = P - 6
2C/2 = P - 6/2
C = P - 3
C + 3 = P
so (C + 3) + P < 36
 (C + 3 - 3) + P < 36 - 3
C + P < 33

Can you see what I am doing?


Let denote Pat's age with P and Zach's age with Z.
We know the following facts:
1.Pat is six years older than twice his Cousin Zach’s age. We can rewrite this statement as:
P=2*Z+6
2. The sum of their ages is less than 36.
P+Z<36
In order to find the greatest age that Zach could be we should find for which Z 
P+Z=35 (the first whole number smaller than 36) 
P=35-Z
35-Z=2*Z+6
35-6=3Z
29=3Z
Z=29/3
Z=9

|h + 4| greater than or equal to 100

|h − 100| less than or equal to 4

|h + 100| greater than or equal to 4

Answers

no more means less than or equal
so answer is
|h − 100| less than or equal to 4

Answer:

|h − 100| less than or equal to 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the difference between h, the actual height, and the designed height, 100, is no more than 4.

This means that the actual height h could be up to 4 more than the designed height or up to 4 less than the designed height.  This is why we use an absolute value inequality; this considers just the distance of 4 regardless of direction.

Since it can be "no more than" 4, we use less than or equal to; this gives us

|h − 100| less than or equal to 4

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)

Final answer:

To write 230,000 in standard form, place the decimal point after the first non-zero digit. For 230,000, the standard form is 2.3 x 10⁵.

Explanation:

To express the number 230,000 in standard form, you simply write it as it is, moving the decimal point to the right until only one non-zero digit appears before the decimal. In this case, 230,000 in standard form is 2.3 x 10⁵.

Marc earned $1,650 per month as an assistant technician at a recording studio. His new job pays $9.80 per hour with time and a half for all hours over 36 hours per week. How many hours of overtime per week will he need to work to earn the same amount per week as his current job?

Answers

Marc will need to work just over 4 hours of overtime each week at his new job, which pays $9.80 per hour and $14.70 per hour for overtime, to earn the equivalent of his previous monthly income of $1,650.

To determine the number of overtime hours Marc needs to work at his new job to earn the same monthly income he did at his previous job, we'll first calculate his weekly income at his old job, then use the overtime pay rates at the new job to find the equivalent number of hours needed.

Marc previously earned $1,650 per month. Assuming a standard 4-week month, his weekly income was:

$1,650 per month / 4 weeks per month = $412.50 per week.

At his new job, Marc earns $9.80 per hour with time and a half for all hours over 36 hours a week. This means his overtime pay is 1.5 times his hourly rate, which is:

$9.80 per hour x 1.5 = $14.70 per hour for overtime.

Marc's income for the first 36 hours at his new job would be:

36 hours x $9.80 per hour = $352.80

To earn the equivalent of his old weekly salary, we must make up the difference with overtime pay:

$412.50 (old weekly income) - $352.80 (new regular pay) = $59.70 needed from overtime.

To determine the overtime hours needed to make $59.70: $59.70 / $14.70 per hour = approximately 4.06 hours.

Therefore, Marc will need to work just over 4 hours of overtime each week to earn the same amount he did at his previous job.

what is the constant rate of change of y=7-13x

Answers

Final answer:

The constant rate of change in the linear equation y=7-13x is -13, representing the slope of the line which remains constant for any value of x. This is different from nonlinear functions, where the rate can vary with x.

Explanation:

The constant rate of change in the equation y=7-13x refers to the slope of the line represented by this linear equation. In this case, the constant rate of change, or the slope, is -13. This means for every one unit increase in x, y decreases by 13 units. Since the equation is linear, this rate does not change regardless of the value of x, unlike in nonlinear functions where the rate of change can vary with x.

To elaborate, if we have a nonlinear function, the rate of change depends on the interval of x we are looking at. For a linear function like this one, the slope is the same over any interval, so there's no need to compute it over smaller ranges of x to understand the rate of change.

Moreover, in calculus, the derivative represents the rate of change, and for a linear function, the derivative is simply the coefficient of x. Hence, the derivative of y with respect to x is -13. The derivative is zero for any constant term in a function, such as the 7 in the given equation.
