Complete Question

Joe needs to transfer 28 quarts of oil into gallons containers joe calculated that he needs 112 containers but he made a mistake in his calculations identify and correct his error

Joe's error:

28 quarts × 4 quarts/ 1 gallon

= 28 quarts/1 × 4 quarts/ 1 gallon

= (28 × 4)/ ( 1 × 1) = 112 gallons

Answer:

7 gallons is the correct answer

Joe needs to transfer 28 quarts of oil into 7 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Joe's error:

28 quarts × 4 quarts/ 1 gallon

= 28 quarts/1 × 4 quarts/ 1 gallon

= (28 × 4)/ ( 1 × 1) = 112 gallons

Correcting Joe's error, we have:

4 quarts = 1 gallon

28 quarts = x

Cross Multiply

4 quarts × x = 28 quarts × 1 gallon

x = 28 quarts × 1 gallon/ 4 quarts

x = 7 gallons

= 28 quarts/x gallons × 1 gallon/4 quarts

= (28 × x)/ ( 1 /4) = 7 gallons

Therefore, Joe needs to transfer 28 quarts of oil into 7 gallons

4. A toy rocket is fired into the air from the top of a barn. It's height (h) above the ground in
yards after t seconds is given by the function: h(t) =- 5t^2+ 10t+ 20.
a) What was the maximum height of the rocket?
b) How long was the rocket in the air before it reached its highest height?

Answers

Answer:

A) 25

Step-by-step explanation:

You use x= -b/2a in order to get your maximum so x= -10/ 2(-5) and you get x=1. You plug 1 into the function as h(1)=-5(1)^2 + 10(1)+ 20 which gets you 25

A function assigns the values. The time it will take for the rocket in the air before it reached its highest height is 1 second.

What is a Function?

A function assigns the value of each element of one set to the other specific element of another set.

A.) The maximum height of the rocket can be found by differentiating the function to get the maximum value of the height funciton.

dh/dt = -5(2t) + 10

Substitute the differentiated value with 0,

0 = -10t + 10

-10t = -10

t = 1

Therefore, the maximum height will be attained when the time is 1 second.

Now, substitute the value of t as 1 second to get the maximum height,

h(t) =- 5t²+ 10t+ 20

h(1) =- 5(1)² + 10(1)+ 20

h(1) = -5 + 10 +20

h = 25 yards

Hence, the maximum height of the rocket is 25 yards.

B.) The time it will take for the rocket in the air before it reached its highest height is 1 second.

Given a 30-60-90 triangle with a hypotenuse of 11 mm solve for the other sides. (Explain)

Answers

Answer:

Need a calculator

Step-by-step explanation:

This will be hard to explain without the ability to draw an example.

The one thing you can memorize is SOH - CAH - TOA

This stands for SIN(Opposite/Hypotenuse), COS(Adjacent/Hypotenuse) and TAN(Opposite/Adjacent).

When you know the angles of a right triangle and at least one side length, you can get the length of all the sides.

So a right triangle has two legs (sides) and the hypotenuse.  If you use the first angle ( 30 degrees)  you can use the formulas above to calculate the side length.

Pick either the SOH or the CAH.  Let's use SOH and write out the equation:

SIN(30 degrees) = Opposite Side divided by the Hypotenuse (11mm)

You can solve for the Opposite Side by multiplying both sides of the equal sign with 11mm.    You end up with SIN(30 degrees) X 11m = Opposite Side.

So the side directly across from the 30 degree angle should be 5.5mm

You can do the exact same thing with the 60 degree angle.

SIN(60 degrees) = Opposite Side divided by Hypotenuse (11mm)   OR

SIN(60 degrees) X 11mm = Opposite Side

This comes out to about 9.5mm

You can check the math by using the other equation CAH

Start with the 30 degree angle and solve for the adjacent side.  This is the side that is touching the 30 degree angle.  Equation will be

COS(30 degrees) X 11mm = Adjacent Side  or  about 9.5mm

The other equation will give you the side that is touching the 60 degree angle.

COS(60 degrees)  X 11mm = Adjacent Side or  5.5mm

You can also use one last thing to check your math.  The Pathagorean Theorem says in a right triangle  [tex]A^{2}[/tex] + [tex]B^{2}[/tex] = [tex]C^{2}[/tex] where C is the hypotenuse and A and B are the two sides.

[tex]5.5^{2}[/tex]  +  [tex]9.5^{2}[/tex]  should equal  [tex]11^{2}[/tex].  Give or take a few decimal places, it's almost exactly 11 (10.977 to be exact).

(x-2)(x+9)=0

Answers

Answer: {2, -9}

Step-by-step explanation: Think of these two binomials, x -2 and x + 9,

as two numbers that are multiplying together to equal zero.

In order for two numbers to multiply together to equal zero,

either one number or the other number must equal zero.

So for two binomials to multiply together to equal zero,

either one binomial or the other binomial must equal zero.

So we can split this problem up into two parts.

If (x - 2)(x + 9) = 0, then either x - 2 = 0 or x + 9 = 0.

On the left, add 2 to both sides and we have x = 2.

On the right, subtract 9 from both sides and we have x = -9.

For our final answer we use set notation.

So our answer is {2, -9}.

Answer:

2 and -9

Step-by-step explanation:

x-2=0

A hotel manager found that his gross receipts for the​ day, including a ​5% sales​ tax, were ​$1645.35. Find the amount of sales tax collected.

Answers

Answer:

The amount of sales tax collected is $78.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentages

The gross receipts for the day were $1645.35, including a 5% sales tax.

If a percentage is already included (added) to a certain quantity, then it's not the original quantity or 100%.

The problem states that the gross receipts already include a 5% sales tax, thus the receipts are 100+5=105% of the net sales.

This means the net sales were $1645.35 / 105 * 100 = $1567

Subtracting $$1645.35 - $1567 = $78.35 we get the amount of sales tax.

The amount of sales tax collected is $78.35

Sam wants to earn at least a B in Math. He earned the following scores on tests so far: 82%, 70%, 72%, and 80%.

Which inequality below can be used to solve and determine what Sam needs to earn on the final exam in order to have at least a B-average in the class?

Answers

Answer:

Sam has to get at least a 96 in order to pass the class with a B.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this you use mean in this format:

Test Scores + x (Exam Grade Needed) / # of Tests ≥ 80 (Which Is a B)

Substitute:

82 + 70 + 72 + 80 + x / 5 ≥ 80

Add:

304 + x / 5 ≥ 80

Get Rid of the Denominator (Multiply Both Sides By 5):

(5) 304 + x / 5 ≥ 80 (5)

Multiply:

304 + x ≥ 400

Isolate x (Subtract 304 From Both Sides):

x ≥ 96

This means that Sam has to get at least (Greater than or equal to) a 96 in order to pass with a B average.

Chompy has $25 to purchase a fishing pole and some fishing balt. The fishing pole costs $12.50 and the fishing bait costs $0.78 each.
Create an inequality that Chompy could use to find out how much fishing bait he can buy.

Answers

25.00-12.50=12.50-0.78=11.72 and keep doing the answer-0.78 and you end up with 0.02 and you can get 17 bait

The number of fishing bait he can buy will be 16.

What is an expression?

Expression in maths is defined as the collection of numbers variables and functions by using signs like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Numbers (constants), variables, operations, functions, brackets, punctuation, and grouping can all be represented by mathematical symbols, which can also be used to indicate the logical syntax's order of operations and other features.

Given that Chompy has $25 to purchase a fishing pole and some fishing bait. The fishing pole costs $12.50 and the fishing bait costs $0.78 each.

The expression will be formed as below:-Let the number of fishing bait is x.

12.50 + 0.78x = 25

0.78x = 25 - 12.5

0.78x = 12.5

x = 12.5 / 0.78

x = 16

Therefore, the number of fishing bait he can buy will be 16.
