Answer 1

Now, it look like there is some information missing in the answer. The whole problem should look like this:

Alicia Keys's new album As I Am is climbing the charts, and the manager of Tip Top Tunes expects to sell a lot of copies. Because she has limited shelf space, she can't put out all her copies of the CD at once. On Monday morning, she stocked the display with 40 copies. By the end of the day, some of the copies had been sold. On Tuesday morning, she counted the number of copies left and then added that many more to the shelf. In other words, she doubled the number that was left in the display. At the end of the day, she discovered that she had sold the exact same number of copies as had been sold on Monday. On Wednesday morning, the manager decided to triple the number of copies that had been left in the case after Tuesday. Amazingly, she sold the same number of copies on Wednesday as she had on each of the first two days! But this time, at the end of the day the display case was empty. How many copies of the As I Am CD did she sell each day?

Answer:

She sold 24 copies of the cd each day.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must first set our variable up. In this case, since we need to know what the number of sold cd's per day is, that will just be our variable:

x= Number of copies sold.

So we can start setting our equation up. So we take the first part of the problem:

"On Monday morning, she stocked the display with 40 copies. By the end of the day, some of the copies had been sold."

This can be translated as:

40-x

where this expression represents the number of copies left on the shelf by the end of monday.

"On Tuesday morning, she counted the number of copies left and then added that many more to the shelf."

so we represent it like this:

(40-x)+(40-x)

"In other words, she doubled the number that was left in the display."

so the previous expression can be simplified like this:

2(40-x)

"At the end of the day, she discovered that she had sold the exact same number of copies as had been sold on Monday."

so the expression now turns to:

2(40-x)-x   this is the number of copies left by the end of tuesday.

"On Wednesday morning, the manager decided to triple the number of copies that had been left in the case after Tuesday."

this translates to:

3[2(40-x)-x]

This is the number of copies on the shelf by the begining of Wednesday.

"Amazingly, she sold the same number of copies on Wednesday as she had on each of the first two days! But this time, at the end of the day the display case was empty."

this piece of information lets us finish writting our equation:

3[2(40-x)-x] -x = 0

since there were no copies left on the shelf, then the equation is equal to zero.

So now we proceed and solve the equation for x:

3[2(40-x)-x] -x = 0

We simplify it from the inside to the outside.

3[80-2x-x]-x=0

3[80-3x]-x = 0

we now distribute the 3 so we get:

240-9x-x=0

we combine like terms so we get:

240-10x=0

we move the 240 to the other side of the equation so we get:

-10x=-240

and divide both sides into -10 so we get:

x=24

so she sold 24 copies each day.

Answers

Answer:

B,C,F

Step-by-step explanation:

A=L*W

P=2L+2W

P≤54

for A, 2L is already greater than 60

B works as 2W+2L in this case is 50

C states that perimeter is less than 54

D doesn't work, as 2L+2W=96

E doesn't work, see above, P=60

F, area=W*L

162/9=18

L=18

2L+2W=48, so F works

Answer:

trả lời:

B,C,F

Giải thích từng bước:

A = L * W

P = 2L + 2W

Trang ≤54

đối với A, 2L đã lớn hơn 60

B hoạt động như 2W + 2L trong trường hợp này là 50

C nói rằng chu vi nhỏ hơn 54

D không hoạt động, vì 2L + 2W = 96

E không hoạt động, xem ở trên, P = 60

F, diện tích =W*L

162/9=18

L =18

2L + 2W = 48, vì vậy F hoạt động

Answers

Answer:

Option (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have to find the multiplication of the two expressions.

(2p + q)(-3q - 6p + 1)

= 2p(-3q - 6p + 1) + q(-3q - 6p + 1) [By distributive property]

= -6pq - 12p²+ 2p - 3q² - 6pq + q

= -12p² - (6pq + 6pq) - 3q² + 2p + q

= -12p² - 12pq + 2p - 3q² + q

Therefore, Option (2) will be the correct option.

Suppose you are conducting a study about how the average US worker spends time over the course of a workday. You are interested in how much time workers spend per day on personal calls, emails, and social networking websites, as well as how much time they spend socializing with coworkers versus actually working.

The most recent census provides data for the entire population Of U.S. workers on variables such as travel time to work, time spent at work, and break time at work. The census, however, does not include data on the variables you are interested in, so you obtain a random sample of 82 full-time workers in the United States and ask about personal calls, e-mails, and so forth. You are curious about how your sample compares with the census, so you also ask the workers the same questions about work that are asked in the census.

Suppose the mean break time per day from the most recent census is 29.6 minutes, with a standard deviation of 16.0 minutes. Your sample of 82 U.S. workers provides a mean break time per day of 31.9 minutes with a sample standard deviation of 22.4 minutes.

What is the margin of error(MOE)?

It is defined as an error that gives an idea about the percentage of errors that exist in the real statistical data.

The formula for finding the MOE:

[tex]\rm MOE = Z_{score}\frac{s}{\sqrt[]{n} }[/tex]

Where    is the z score at the confidence interval

            s is the standard deviation

            n is the number of samples.

We know:

[tex]\rm \sigma_m= \frac{\sigma^2}{n}[/tex]

We have,

[tex]\rm \sigma = 16 \ and \ n = 82[/tex]

[tex]\rm \sigma_m= \frac{16^2}{82}[/tex]

[tex]\rm \sigma_m= 3.121[/tex]

For [tex]\rm S_m[/tex]

[tex]\rm S_m = \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

We have,

s = 22.4 and n = 82

[tex]\rm S_m = \frac{22.4}{\sqrt{82} }[/tex]

[tex]\rm S_m = 2.473[/tex]

Thus, the value of [tex]\mu[/tex] = 29.6, M = 31.9, [tex]\sigma[/tex] = 16 , s = 22.4, [tex]\sigma_m[/tex] = 3.121, and [tex]\rm S_m[/tex] = 2.473.

Find the sum of the infinite geometric series -27, -9, -3, … The ratio is /3 and u1 is -27

Answers

Answer: C) -81/2

===================================================

Work Shown:

a = -27 = first term

r = 1/3 = common ratio, note how this is between -1 and 1

We start with -27 and multiply by 1/3 each time to get the next term

S = infinite sum

S = a/(1-r), which only works because -1 < r < 1 is true

S = -27/(1-1/3)

S = -27/(2/3)

S = (-27/1) divided by (2/3)

S = (-27/1) times (3/2)

S = (-27*3)/(1*2)

S = -81/2

As you generate and add up the terms of the sequence, the infinite sum slowly starts to approach -81/2 = -40.5; we'll never actually achieve this sum exactly. Think of it as approaching an asymptote.
