Answers

(1) ∠ABC = 65°, ∠DBE = 65°, ∠CBE = 115°, ∠ABD = 115°

(2) ∠ABC = 62°, ∠DBE = 62°, ∠CBE = 118°, ∠ABD = 118°

Solution:

(1) In the given image ABC and DBE are vertical angles.

Vertical angle theorem:

If two angles are vertical then they are congruent.

⇒ ∠ABC = ∠DBE

⇒ 3x° + 38° = 5x° + 20°

Arrange like terms one side.

⇒ 38° – 20° = 5x° – 3x°

⇒ 18° = 2x°

x° = 9°

∠ABC = 3(9°) + 38° = 65°

∠DBE = 5(9°) + 20° = 65°

Adjacent angles in a straight line = 180°

⇒ ∠ABC + ∠CBE = 180°

⇒ 65° + ∠CBE = 180°

∠CBE = 115°

∠ABD and ∠CBE are vertical angles.

∠ABD = 115°

(2) In the given image ABC and DBE are vertical angles.

⇒ ∠ABC = ∠DBE

⇒ 4x° + 2° = 5x° – 13°

Arrange like terms one side.

⇒ 13° + 2° = 5x° – 4x°

⇒ 15° = x°

∠ABC = (4(15°) + 2°) = 62°

∠DBE = 5(15°) – 13° = 62°

Adjacent angles in a straight line = 180°

⇒ ∠ABC + ∠CBE = 180°

⇒ 62° + ∠CBE = 180°

∠CBE = 118°

∠ABD and ∠CBE are vertical angles.

∠ABD = 118°

Answers

Well, first off, any ameteur who read the question once would know he is INCORRECT, this is because you can easily see he's dividing it by 3 not 6 like you should be, so 2.99 divided by 6 is 0.498333 ( continuing ) so since this must be rounded to the nearest hundredth, so, 50 cents per bottle.

So question 1: No, because he divided with the incorrect numbers.

Question 2:( I actually don't understand this question, cause we just established he was wrong ) so since I don't understand this one, imma say no, or meh.

CORRECT unit rate: 50 cents per bottle.

[tex](-5,\frac{25}{6})[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is [tex]2x+6y=15[/tex]

We substitute the ordered pairs to see which ones satisfies the equation.

For (-1,-8), we put x=-1 and y=-8 to get:

[tex]2(-1)+6(-8)=^?15[/tex]

[tex]-2+-48=^?15\\-50=^?15[/tex]

This is not true.

For [tex](-1,\frac{17}{6}))[/tex] we put x=-1 and [tex]y=\frac{17}{6}[/tex] to get

[tex]2(-1)+6*\frac{17}{6})=15\\ -2+17=15\\15=15[/tex]

This is true

For (3,3/2) we have 2(3)+6(3/2)=15

This implies 6+9=15

15=15

This is also True

For (-5,25/6), we have 2(-5)+6(25/6)=-10+25=15

This is also true.

Answers

[tex]y = \frac{-8}{3}x + 10[/tex] is the equation in slope intercept form

Solution:

Given points are (0, 10) and (3, 2)

We have to find the slope intercept form

Let us first find the slope of line

The slope of line is given as:

[tex]m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Here,

[tex](x_1, y_1) = (0, 10)\\\\(x_2, y_2) =(3,2)[/tex]

Substituting the values we get,

[tex]m = \frac{2-10}{3-0}\\\\m = \frac{-8}{3}[/tex]

The equation of line in slope intercept form is given as:

y = mx + c ------- eqn 1

Where, "m" is the slope of line and "c" is the y intercept

Substitute [tex]m = \frac{-8}{3}[/tex] and (x , y) = (0, 10) in eqn 1

[tex]10 = \frac{-8}{3} \times 0 + c\\\\c = 10[/tex]

[tex]Substitute\ m = \frac{-8}{3}\ and\ c = 10\ in\ eqn\ 1[/tex]

[tex]y= \frac{-8}{3}x + 10[/tex]

Thus the equation of line in slope intercept form is found

Solve the equation 3x - 13y = 2 for x.

Answers

Hey there!

To solve for x, you must isolate the x term. To do so, first add 13y to both sides so you can leave 3x isolated on one side:

3x - 13y + 13y= 2 + 13y

3x= 2 +13y

Now, divide both sides by 3 to isolate the x variable and get your final answer:

(3x)/3 = (2 + 13y)/3

x = [tex]\frac{2 + 13y}{3}[/tex]

The equation could also be written as  x= [tex]\frac{2}{3}+\frac{13y}{3}[/tex] if you choose to separate the 2 and 13y.

We have to find out what time will it take for frog to get out of the well ?

What is the unitary method?

The unitary method is a method in which we find the value of a unit and then the value of the required number of units.

As per the question ;

The frog starts from the bottom of the well.

It is given that the well has a depth of 50 feet.

Frog can climb 7 feet/hour but then takes a rest of 1 hour and slips by 3 feet.

Let's check distance covered by frog in 2 hours ;

1st hour = 7 feet

2nd hour = 7 - 3 = 4 feet

So ,

In 2 hours frog covers a distance of 4 feet.

Hence ,

To climb 44 feet or 4 × 11 feet , the frog will take 2 × 11 or 22 hours

and

To climb rest of 6 feet distance , the frog would take [tex]\frac{6}{7}[/tex] of an hour.

Also ;

It is needed to be mentioned that once the frog reaches at the top of well it won't slip back.

So ,

The total time taken by frog to climb 50 feet deep well will be ;

= [tex]22\frac{6}{7}[/tex] hours

Showton Middle School has 840 students. Teresa surveys a random sample of 60 students and finds that 8 of them have more than 3 siblings, How many students at the school are likely to have more than 3 siblings?

Answers

Based on a sample of 60 students, where 8 have more than 3 siblings, approximately 112 students out of 840 at Showton Middle School are estimated to have more than 3 siblings.

If there are 840 students at the school, we can use this sample to estimate the total number of students likely to have more than 3 siblings across the entire school population. This is a problem related to proportions within a population.

To make this estimation, we need to set up a proportion based on the sample data:

Sample proportion of students with more than 3 siblings: 8 out of 60, or 8/60.Total number of students in the school: 840.

Now we can set up a proportion:

(number of students with >3 siblings) / 840 = 8 / 60

We solve for the unknown number of students with more than 3 siblings by cross-multiplying:

(number of students with >3 siblings) * 60 = 8 * 840

(number of students with >3 siblings) = (8 * 840) / 60

(number of students with >3 siblings) = 112

Therefore, based on Teresa's sample, approximately 112 students at Showton Middle School are likely to have more than 3 siblings.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the terms ; 4, 12a, 6, 2a, and 24

There are two terms with unknown = 12a and 2a

but 12a = 2a x 6 .........(1)

from the last term = 24 = 6 x 4 ...........(2)

12a + 24 = 6(2a + 4) is the equivalent expressions .

to VERIFY; Use a = 2

on the subway 8 out of 11 people are carrying a briefcase. Based on the information, if there are 700 people on the subway, then about how many do not have a briefcase?

Answers

Answer:

About 191 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

On the subway 8 out of 11 people are carrying a briefcase.

There are 700 people on the subway.

Question asked:

About how many people do not have a briefcase ?

Solution:

By applying unitary method:

Out of 11 people, number of people having  briefcase = 8

Out of 1 , number of people having  briefcase = [tex]\frac{8}{11}[/tex]

Out of 700 people, number of people having  briefcase = [tex]\frac{8}{11} \times700\\[/tex]

                                                                                             = [tex]\frac{5600}{11}[/tex]

Number of people not having  briefcase = [tex]700 -[/tex][tex]\frac{5600}{11}[/tex]

                                                                   = [tex]\frac{7700-5600}{11}[/tex]

                                                                   = [tex]\frac{2100}{11}[/tex] = [tex]190.90[/tex]

Therefore, about 191 people  do not have a briefcase on the subway.

Final answer:

To find how many people do not have a briefcase out of 700, calculate the number of people with a briefcase and then subtract that from the total.

Explanation:

On the subway 8 out of 11 people are carrying a briefcase. This can be represented as 8/11 of the people have a briefcase. To find out how many people do not have a briefcase out of 700 people, we can first calculate the proportion that have a briefcase and then subtract that from the total.

To find the number of people with a briefcase:

Proportion with briefcase: 8/11

Number with briefcase out of 700: (8/11) x 700 = 509.09 (round down to 509)

Therefore, the number of people without a briefcase would be: 700 - 509 = 191 people.

STATE -The Martins bought a condominium for $145,000. Assuming

Answers

The future value of a condominium bought for $145,000 with a 5% annual appreciation over 5 years is calculated using the compound interest formula, resulting in a value of approximately $185,061.

The question is asking us to calculate the future value of an investment in real estate, specifically a condominium that was bought for $145,000 with an annual appreciation rate of 5% over a span of 5 years. To find the value of the condo in 5 years, we use the formula for compound interest, which is:

[tex]A = P(1 + r/n)^{nt}[/tex]

Where:

A is the amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest.

P is the principal amount (the initial amount of money).

r is the annual interest rate (decimal).

n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year.

t is the time the money is invested for in years.

Since the appreciation is compounded annually, n is 1. So, we can simplify the formula to:

[tex]A = P(1 + r)^t[/tex]

Substituting the given values:

[tex]A = $145,000(1 + 0.05)^5[/tex]

Now, let's calculate the future value:

[tex]A = $145,000(1.05)^5[/tex]

A = $145,000(1.2762825)

A ≈ $185,061

The condominium will be worth approximately $185,061 in 5 years.
