Answers

Answer 1
How many fish are there in all? We need that to answer the question.
Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Two-fifths of the fish in Gary's fish tank are guppies.One-fourth of the guppies are red.

To Find: What fraction of the fish in Gary's tank are red guppies.

Solution:

Let total number of fish in tank be [tex]=\text{x}[/tex]

Number of guppies in tank are [tex]=\frac{2}{5}\text{of total fish}[/tex]

Number of guppies in tank are [tex]=\frac{2}{5}\text{x}[/tex]

Number of red guppies in tank are [tex]=\frac{1}{4}\text{of total guppies}[/tex]

                                                          [tex]\frac{1}{4}\times\frac{2}{5}\text{x}[/tex]

                                                          [tex]\frac{1}{10}\text{x}[/tex]

Now,

fraction of the fish in Gary's tank that are red guppies

                                                           [tex]=\frac{\text{red guppies}}{\text{total fish in Gary's tank}}[/tex]

                                                           [tex]\frac{\frac{1}{10}\text{x}}{\text{x}}[/tex]

                                                           [tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex]

Hence  [tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex] of total fish are red guppies.

At an automobile factory, 1849 parts are made in 4 hours. What is the average rate at which parts are made per hour?

Answers

Just divide "1849 parts" by "4 hours:"  the average rate is 1849/4 parts/hour,

or 1849 parts/ 4 hours, or 462.25 parts/hour, or (rounded off) 462 parts/hour.

Answer:

462.25

Step-by-step explanation:

At an automobile factory, the number of parts are made in 4 hours = 1849.

We have to calculate the average rate of production per hour.

We will divide the production of parts in 4 hours by 4 to get the number of parts made per hour.

The average rate of production in one hour = [tex]\frac{1849}{4}[/tex]

                                                                         = 462.25/hour

462.25 parts are made per hour.

Line IJ has an equation of a line y = −3x − 8. Which of the following could be an equation for a line that is parallel to line IJ?

A) y=3x+7
B) y=1/3x+7
C) y= -3x+7
D) y= -1/3x+7

Answers

Answer:

C) y = -3x +7

Step-by-step explanation:

It's all about recognizing patterns.

The form of the equation is ...

... y = mx + b

In this form, the coefficient of x, which we called "m" in the above, is the slope of the line. When two lines have the same slope, they are parallel. So, we're looking for an equation that has an x-coefficient of -3, the same as in the given equation.

The coefficient of x in selection C is -3, so that is our answer choice.

... C) y = -3x +7

Answer:

y = -3x +7 which is option C

Find the integer a such that
a.a ≡ 43 (mod 23) and −22 ≤ a ≤ 0.

Answers

The integer a such that a ≡ 43 (mod 23) and −22 ≤ a ≤ 0 is -3. A zero, a positive natural number, or a negative integer with a minus sign is an integer.

What do we mean when we say that integers are congruent to modulo?When two positive integers a and b are divided by a positive integer n, they are said to be congruent modulo n (or an is congruent to b modulo n), or if a b is divisible by n. It can be expressed as a b mod n, where n is the modulus.If n is a positive integer, then the integers a and b are said to be congruent modulo n, as denoted by the expression a b (modn).Division algorithm Allow dd and aa to be both positive integers. Following that, there are two distinct integers, qq and rr, where rd0 and rd are equal, resulting in a = dq + ra = dq + r

Therefore,

-3 is in between -22 and 0 so a =-3

a ≡ 43 (mod 23) and −22 ≤ a ≤ 0.

a ≡ 43 (mod 23)

≡ 43-22 (mod 23)

Simplifying,

≡ 20 (mod 23)

≡ 20-23 (mod 23)

Then we get,

≡ -3 (mod 23)

-3 is in between -22 and 0 so a =-3

how many fossil kits with 10 samples each have the same number of fossils as 30 fossil kits with 8 samples each?

Answers

((( answer 24 )))as 30×8= 240 and 10×24 = 240

Answer:

24 fossil kits.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The number of fossil kits = 30,

the number of samples each has  = 8,

So, the total samples = number of fossil kits × the number of samples contained by each kit

= 30 × 8

= 240,

Let x be the number fossil kits with 10 samples each,

Total samples = 10x

According to the question,

10x = 240

[tex]\implies x =\frac{240}{10}=24[/tex]

Hence, there would be 24 fossil kits with 10 samples each.

Mark earns $135 for selling a $1500 refrigerator. Which sale listed has the same commission rate? $36 commission on a $400 dryer or B) $40 commission on a $500 dryer sale C) $210 commission on $1400 oven sale d) $30 commission on a $600 freezer sale?
salelisted has the same commssion rate. ?

Answers

The answer is A

36/400 * 3.8 = 136.6/1520
40/500 * 3 = 120/1500
210/1400 (not even close)
30/600 * 3 = 90/1800 (not even close)

so the two answer choices that are close are A and B, A has the closest numbers to the original commission rate.

Answer:

Option A is the correct choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Mark earns $135 for selling a $1500 refrigerator.

Since proportions states that two fractions are equal , so we will use proportions to find the same commission rate with the listed price from our given choices.

We can set proportion for commission and listed price as:

[tex]\frac{\text{Commission}}{\text{Listed price}}=\frac{135}{1500}[/tex]

Let us compare our given choices one by one.

A. $36 commission on a $400 dryer.

[tex]\frac{36}{400}=\frac{135}{1500}[/tex]

Upon simplifying our proportion we will get,

[tex]\frac{9}{100}=\frac{9}{100}[/tex]

[tex]0.09=0.09[/tex]

We can see that commission rates for both items are equal, therefore, option A is the correct choice.

B. $40 commission on a $500 dryer sale.

[tex]\frac{40}{500}=\frac{135}{1500}[/tex]

Upon simplifying our proportion we will get,

[tex]\frac{2}{25}=\frac{9}{100}[/tex]

[tex]0.08\neq 0.09[/tex]

We can see that both commission rates are different, therefore, option B is not a correct choice.

C. $210 commission on $1400 oven sale.

[tex]\frac{210}{1400}=\frac{135}{1500}[/tex]

Upon simplifying our proportion we will get,

[tex]\frac{3}{20}=\frac{9}{100}[/tex]

[tex]0.15\neq 0.09[/tex]  

Since the commission rates are different, therefore, option C is not a correct choice.

D.  $30 commission on a $600 freezer sale.

[tex]\frac{30}{1400}=\frac{135}{1500}[/tex]

Upon simplifying our proportion we will get,

[tex]\frac{3}{140}=\frac{9}{100}[/tex]

[tex]0.0214\neq 0.09[/tex]  

Since the commission rates are different, therefore, option D is not a correct choice.

The points are widely dispersed on the scatterplot with no pattern of grouping. Interpret what the results of the scatterplot tell you about the relationship between the two variables.

Answers

A: Since there is no cluster formed in the scatterplot, the two variables are not related. Therefore, based on the data shown in the scatterplot, the number of fish in a lake is not dependent on the size of the lake.

Based on the dispersion of the scatterplot, we can infer that there is no relationship between the variables.

Relationships in scatterplots Data points are used to predict relationships. If a line can be drawn based on these data points, then a relationship exists.

The fact that these data points are dispersed however and offer no form of grouping, means that the variables are not related and show no correlational trend.

Use the cosine double-angle identity cos(2θ) = 1 − 2sin2θ to derive an identity for 2sin2θ

Answers

then is just a matter of linear simplification

[tex]\bf cos(2\theta )=1-2sin^2(\theta )\implies 2sin^2(\theta )=1-cos(2\theta )[/tex]
Final answer:

To derive an identity for 2sin2θ using the cosine double-angle identity cos(2θ) = 1 − 2sin²θ, we can rearrange the equation and substitute the value of sin²θ to obtain the identity 2sin²θ = 1 - cos(2θ).

Explanation:

To derive an identity for 2sin2θ using the cosine double-angle identity cos(2θ) = 1 − 2sin²θ, we can start by rearranging the equation to solve for sin²θ. This gives us sin²θ = (1 - cos(2θ))/2.

Next, we can substitute this value into the expression for 2sin²θ. This gives us 2sin²θ = 2(1 - cos(2θ))/2 = 1 - cos(2θ).

Therefore, the identity for 2sin²θ is 1 - cos(2θ).
