Ryan needs to buy some pencils. Brand A has a pack of pencils for 7.49$ . Brand B has a pack of pencils for 9.97$ .
Find the unit price for each brand. Then state which brand is the better buy based on the unit price.

Round your answers to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Unit Price for Brand A: $0.31 per Pencil.

Unit Price for Brand B: $0.35 per Pencil.

Brand A is the better buy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 7.49 by 24 to get 0.312 and round down to 0.31.

Divide 9.97 by 28 to get 0.356 and round down to 0.35 (0.36 is too much making the price $10.08)

Compare 0.31 and 0.35. (0.31 < 0.35)

Answer:

  x = 14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We can only solve for x if the triangles are similar. The arrows on the left and right legs say those are parallel. Since alternate interior angles at each of the transversals are congruent, the triangles are AA similar.

ΔABC ~ ΔDEC, so we have ...

  EC/ED = BC/BA

  x/(18 cm) = (35 cm)/(45 cm)

  x = (18 cm)(7/9) = 14 cm

Larissa is ordering nachos at a restaurant, and the server tells her that she can have up to four toppings: ground beef, black beans, refried beans, and sour cream. Since she cannot decide how many of the toppings she wants, she tells the server to surprise her. If the server randomly chooses which toppings to add, what is the probability that Larissa gets just refried beans and sour cream

Answers

Answer:

0.0625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of toppings = 4 (ground beef, black beans, refried beans, and sour cream)

The probability of choosing any particular topping at random from the four is :

Probability = required / total possible outcomes

Hence, P = 1 / 4 = 0.25

Hence, the probability of choosing : getting refried bean and sour cream :

P(refried bean) = 1/4

P(sour cream) = 1/4

P(refried bean and sour cream) = 1/4 * 1/4 = 1/16 =

1. You are given the 3rd and 5th term of an arithmetic sequence. Describe in words how to determine the general term.

2. You are given the 3rd and 5th term of an geometric sequence. Describe how to determine the 10th term without finding the general term.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

1. In an arithmetic sequence, the general term can be written as

xₙ = y + d(a-1), where xₐ represents the ath term, y is the first value, and d is the common difference.

Given the third term and the fifth term, and knowing that the difference between each term is d, we can say that the 4th term is x₃+d and the fifth term is the fourth term plus d, or (x₃+d)+d =

x₃+2d. =x₅ Given x₃ and x₅, we can subtract x₃ from both sides to get

x₅-x₃ = 2d

divide by 2 to isolate d

(x₅-x₃)/2 = d

This lets us solve for d. Given d, we can say that

x₃ = y+d(2)

subtract 2*d from both sides to isolate the y

x₃ -2*d = y

Therefore, because we know x₃ and d at this point, we can solve for y, letting us plug y and d into our original equation of

xₙ = y + d(a-1)

2.

Given the third and fifth term, with a common ratio of r, we can say that the fourth term is x₃ * r. Then, the fifth term is

x₃* r * r

= x₃*r² = x₅

divide both sides by x₃ to isolate the r²

x₅/x₃ = r²

square root both sides

√(x₅/x₃) = ±r

One thing that is important to note is that we don't know whether r is positive or negative. For example, if x₃ = 4 and x₅ = 16, regardless of whether r is equal to 2 or -2, 4*r² = 16. I will be assuming that r is positive for this question.

Given the common ratio, we can find x₆ as x₅ * r, x₇ as x₅*r², and all the way up to x₁₀ = x₅*r⁵. We don't know the general term, but can still find the tenth term of the sequence

Two chords in a circle intersect. One chord is made of 6 and 5, and the other is made of x +1 and x. What is x?

Answers

Answer:

x = 5 and -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the intersecting chord theorem which states that the products of the lengths of the line segments on each chord are equal.

Hence:

let

a = 6, b = 5, c = x+1 and d = x

Therefore, ab = cd

6*5 = x(x+1)

30 = x²+x

x²+x - 30 = 0

x²+ 6x - 5x - 30 = 0

x(x+6) - 5(x+6) =0

(x-5)(x+6) = 0

x-5 =0 and x+6 = 0

x = 5 and -6

You measure 40 watermelons' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 67 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 11.4 ounces. Based on this, what is the maximal margin of error associated with a 99% confidence interval for the true population mean watermelon weight.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]35.36,44.64[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size [tex]n=40[/tex]

Mean weight [tex]\=x =67[/tex]

Standard deviation [tex]\sigma=11.4[/tex]

Confidence Interval [tex]CI=0.99[/tex]

\alpha==0.01

Therefore

[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=Z_[0.005][/tex]

From table

[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=2.576[/tex]

Generally, the equation for Margin of error is mathematically given by

Two cars start moving from the same point. One travels south at 24 mi/h and the other travels west at 18 mi/h. At what rate (in mi/h) is the distance between the cars increasing two hours later

Answers

Answer:

The rate at which the distance between the two cars is increasing is 30 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

speed of the first car, v₁ = 24 mi/h

speed of the second car, v₂ = 18 mi/h

Two hours later, the position of the cars is calculated as;

position of the first car, d₁ = 24 mi/h  x 2 h  = 48 mi

position of the second car, d₂ = 18 mi/h  x 2 h = 36 mi

The displacement of the two car is calculated as;

displacement, d² = 48² + 36²

                        d² = 3600

                        d = √3600

                        d = 60 mi

The rate at which this displacement is changing = (60 mi) / (2h)

                                                                                 = 30 mi/h

What is the value of x in the equation 5(3x + 4) = 23?

Answers

Answer:

x = 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

5(3x + 4) = 23

Distribute

15x+20 = 23

Subtract 20 from each side

15x+20-20 = 23-20

15x = 3

Divide by 15

15x/15 = 3/15

x = 1/5

Answer:

[tex]x = 0.2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Distribute

[tex]5(3x + 4) = 23[/tex]

[tex](5 * 3x) + (5 * 4) = 23[/tex]

[tex](15x) + 20 = 23[/tex]

Step 2:  Subtract 20 from both sides

[tex](15x) + 20 - 20 = 23 - 20[/tex]

[tex]15x = 3[/tex]

Step 3:  Divide both sides by 15

[tex]\frac{15x}{15} = \frac{3}{15}[/tex]

[tex]N(0) = 1[/tex]

Required

Number of supermarkets over a long period of time

To do this, we simply set

[tex]\frac{dN}{dt} = 0[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]N(1 - 0.0008N) = 0[/tex]

Split

[tex]N = 0\ or\ 1 - 0.0008N = 0[/tex]

Solve: [tex]1 - 0.0008N = 0[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]0.0008N = 1[/tex]

Make N the subject

[tex]N = \frac{1}{0.0008}[/tex]

[tex]N = 1250[/tex]

So:

What is the distance between the points (7, 8) and (-8, 0) on a coordinate grid?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula, [tex]d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

Plug in the points and simplify:

[tex]d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{(-8 - 7)^2 + (0-8)^2}[/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{(-15)^2 + (-8)^2}[/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{225 + 64[/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{289[/tex]

[tex]d = 17[/tex]

So, the distance between the points is 17 units
