The ratio of blue paint to yellow paint in a certain color of green paint is 2.1. A painter wants a total of 14 quarts of green paint Blue paint is

$16.64 per quart and $34.96 per gallon. Buying the least amount needed, how much will it cost to purchase the blue paint in the most economic

way?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The blue paint with a unit price of [tex]34.96\,\frac{USD}{gal}[/tex] is the most economic option for the painter. (Cost: [tex]x = 8.74\,\frac{USD}{qt}[/tex])

Step-by-step explanation:

Both gallon and quart are capacity units, we must keep in mind that a gallon equals 4 quarts. We need to convert each price in the same units. In this case, we decided to use US dollars per quart as our reference unit. Hence:

Blue paint 1 ([tex]16.64\,\frac{USD}{qt}[/tex])

No unit conversions are needed.

Blue paint 2 ([tex]34.96\,\frac{USD}{gal}[/tex])

We proceed to the following conversion:

[tex]x = 34.96\,\frac{USD}{gal}\times \frac{1\,gal}{4\,qt}[/tex]

[tex]x = 8.74\,\frac{USD}{qt}[/tex]

The blue paint with a unit price of [tex]34.96\,\frac{USD}{gal}[/tex] is the most economic option for the painter. (Cost: [tex]x = 8.74\,\frac{USD}{qt}[/tex])

Which compound inequality describes the solutions graphed below?​

Answers

Answer:

A. x ≤ -2 or x > 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The number line shows two possible values of x which represents a compound inequality.

There are two arrows in opposite direction on the number line.

The arrow that starts at -2 and goes to your far left, has a shaded small circle "o". This connotes that -2 is included in the possible values of x. Thus, this means the possible value of x is equal to -2 or less than -2 ==> x ≤ -2.

The other arrow starts at 3 and has an unshaded small "o", implying that 3 is not included in the possible values of x. Thus, x > 3.

The compound inequality in the graph indicates either statement is true, since each solution do not overlap, hence, the word to use here would be "OR", showing a union.

Therefore, the solution of the compound inequality would be x ≤ -2 or x > 3.

The ratio of dogs to cats at a local animal shelter is 13/25. Which statement must be true?

Answers

Option:

a. for every 13 dogs, there are 25 cats.

b. there are twice as many cats as dogs at the shelter.

c. the shelter has more dogs than cats.

d. there are 25 animals in the shelter.

Answer:

a. for every 13 dogs, there are 25 cats.

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent Dogs with D and Cats with C;

So;

[tex]\frac{D}{C} = \frac{13}{25}[/tex]

By comparison:

[tex]D=13[/tex]

[tex]C = 25[/tex]

This implies that:

For every 13 D, there are 25 C

Hence: Option A is true

Flaws occur at random along the length of a thin copper wire. The number of flaws per mm follows a Poisson Distribution with a mean of 2.3 flaws per mm. Determine the probability of exactly 2 flaws in 1 mm of wire.

Answers

Answer:

0.265

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of flaws per mm follows a poisson distribution:

Mean flaws per mm (x) = 2.3

Probability of exactly two flaws in 1 mm of wire

P(X = 2) = (x² * e^-x) / x!

P(x = 2) = (2.3² * e^-2.3) / 2!

P(x = 2) = (5.29 * 0.1002588) / 2

P(x = 2) = 0.265

Answers

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x = - 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the product

4x/5 = 2x + 4/2

Reduce the faction with 2

4x/5 = 2x + 2

Multiply both sides of the equation by 5

4x = 10x + 10

Move variable to the left-hand side and change its sign

4x - 10x = 10

Collect like terms

-6x = 10

Divide both sides of the equation by -6

x = - 5/3

Solution

x = -5/3

Alternate form

x = -1 2/3, x = -1.6

Integers
Which of the following would be the best label for the set represented by the

Answers

Answer: D) Rational Numbers

Any rational number is in the form p/q, where p,q are integers and q is nonzero.

If we made q = 1, then p/q turns into an integer which is why the set of integers is inside the set of rational numbers.

For instance, if p = 7 and q = 1, then p/q = 7/1 = 7 is an integer and it is rational too.

The total value of Jaspers assets is $15,800 and  the total value of Jaspers liabilities is $4,400.

What do you mean by Assets?

Anything that will or now has economic worth to a company is considered an asset. Assets are essentially anything that a firm controls and owns that is currently valuable or has the potential to be profitable in the future.

A balance sheet is a financial statement that lists the assets and liabilities of a corporation at a certain point in time. It is one of the three primary financial statements—the other two being the income statement and cash flow statement—that are used to assess a company's performance.

The three forms of balance sheets are: Comparative balance sheets, Vertical balance sheets and Horizontal balance sheets.

Therefore, Value of assets is $15,800 and value of liabilities is $4,400.

Three national news networks are trying to estimate what percentage of

population parameter, each of the three networks collect data from a simple

random sample of voters. Here are the numbers of voters in the networks'

random samples:

• Network A: 3800 voters sampled

• Network B: 3500 voters sampled

• Network C: 3250 voters sampled

Which sample is likely to have the least variability?

A. The Network A sample

OB. The Network B sample

OC. The Network C sample

Answers

Answer:

A. The Network A sample

Step-by-step explanation:

The variability of a dataset is a measure of how values in the dataset deviates from the mean value, the variability of a dataset is usually measured using the variance and standard deviation of the data values.

In statistics, variability is curbed by increasing the sample size of the data as larger values in the sample usually means that the sample mean will be close to the population mean. Hence, since network A has the highest number of Sampled voters, then Network A will likely have lesser variability than both Network B and C. Similarly, Network B will likely have lesser variability than Network C.

Network A: 3800 voters sampled

• Network B: 3500 voters sampled

• Network C: 3250 voters sampled

9. What is the likelihood that a randomly selected couple's relationship survived between 90 and 150 days

Answers

Answer:

0.5818

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the average teenage romantic relationship is normally distributed with a mean number of 100 days with a standard deviation of 30 days.

Answer:

The z score is used to determine how many standard deviations that the raw score is above or below the mean. If the z score is positive then the raw score is above the mean and if it is negative then it is below the mean. It is given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\ \\where\ \mu=mean,\sigma=standard\ deviation, x=raw\ score[/tex]

Given that:

[tex]\mu=100\ days,\sigma=30\ days\\\\For\ x=90\\\\z=\frac{90-100}{30} =-0.33\\\\For\ x=150\\\\z=\frac{150-100}{30} =1.67[/tex]

Therefore, from the normal distribution table, P(90 < x < 150) = P(-0.33 < z < 1.67) = P(z < 1.67) - P(z < -0.33) = 0.9525 - 0.3707 = 0.5818
