The correct option that gives a proper logic for the argument that "If X, then Y. If Y, then Z. Y is true" is given by;
Option B; X is unknown, Z is true
This question is based on the principles of logic. Logic helps us distinguish between valid and invalid arguments.Now, the argument here is that;If X, then Y. If Y, then Z. Y is true.
Now, from this argument, we can see that Y depends on X and then Z depends on Y.Now, we are told that Y is true. Since Z depends on Y as seen that If Y, then Z, we can say that Z is also true.However, we can't say anything about X as X is unknown.

A chef is going to use a mixture of two brands of Italian dressing. The first brand contains 8% vinegar, and the second brand contains 13% vinegar. The chef wants to make 270 milliliters of a dressing that is 9% vinegar. How much of each brand should she use
Answer:
Amount of 8% vinegar = 216 mL
Amount of 13% vinegar = 54 mL
Step-by-step explanation:
First, of all, let x be the amount of 8% vinegar used
Since, the scientist needs 270 mL of vinegar, then;
Let 270 - x be the amount of 13% vinegar used
Now, we are told that she needs 270 mL of a 9% vinegar.
This means that;
8%x + 13%(270 - x) = 9%(270)
Simplifying this gives;
0.08x + 0.13(270 - x) = 0.09 × 270
Expanding the bracket gives;
0.08x + 35.1 - 0.13x = 24.3
0.13x - 0.08x = 35.1 - 24.3
0.05x = 10.8
x = 10.8/0.05
x = 216 mL
Thus, she will need to use 216 mL of the 8% vinegar.
Since 270 - x is the amount of 13% vinegar used , then;
the amount of 13% vinegar = 270 - 216 = 54 mL
y=-|x-2|
Please help me
Answer:
y = -|x-2| (*)
2 cases:
case 1: for x≥2 <=> |x-2| = x-2
(*) <=> y = - (x-2)
<=> y = -x+2
<=> x+y = 2
case 2: for x>2 <=> |x-2| = 2-x
(*) <=> y = -(2-x)
<=> y = x-2
<=> x-y = 2
since there are 2 variables but just one equation, we cannot find the exact values of x and y. Instead, we can find some kind of connection between them.
A new electronic store opened recently. There are several sales associate positions that pay an hourly rate of $7.50 plus a 4.5% commission based on the sales associates total weeking sales. Sales assqqociates are guaranteed 30 hrs of work per week,but no more that 40 hrs. At the electronics store, sales associates average $7,000 in sales each week. USE THE AVERAGE WEEKLY SALES FIGURE OF $7,000 AND HOURLY RATE OF $7.50. WRITE AN EQUATION, CREATE A TABLE, AND CREATE A GRAPH FOR A SALES ASSOCIATE'S WEEKLY EARNINGS, f(x), where x represents the total number of hours the sales associate would work.
Answer: f(x) = 7.50x + 315
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of hours
Given: rate = 7.50, commission = 4.5%(7,000) = 315
Equation: f(x) = 7.50x + 315

Justin wants to cover the top of a circular swimming pool to keep insects out of the pool. If the diameter of the pool is 20 feet, what will be the area of the top of the cover (the portion of the cover that covers the surface of the pool)?
Answer: The area is approximately 314 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Well if the diameter is 20 feet then the radius will be 10 because the radius is half the diameter, and to find the area of a circle, you use the formula
A= [tex]\pi r^{2}[/tex] where A is the area and pi times the radius squared.
We will represent pi by 3.14
A= 3.14* 10^2
A= 3.14 * 100
A = 314

Find the distance between the points: (-3, -4) and (5, 5). If necessary, round your answer to the nearest tenth. A.14.4 b.19 c.12 d.11.8
Answer:
The answer is option CStep-by-step explanation:
The distance between two points can be found by using the formula
[tex]d = \sqrt{( {x1 - x2})^{2} + ({y1 - y2})^{2} } \\ [/tex]where
(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points
From the question the points are
(-3, -4) and (5, 5)
The distance between them is
[tex]d = \sqrt{( { - 3 - 5})^{2} + ({ - 4 - 5})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ ({ - 8})^{2} + ( { - 9})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{64 + 81} \\ = \sqrt{145} \\ = 12.04159 [/tex]We have the final answer as

Simplify –56 ⋅ 25 ⋅ 4. State a property that you can use.
Answer: [tex]-56\cdot 25\cdot 4 = -5600[/tex] .
Step-by-step explanation:
Associative property of multiplication : We can group numbers to multiply in any order like
[tex]p\times (q \times r) = (p\times q )\times r = p\times q\times r[/tex], where p , q and r can be any expression.
The given expression : [tex]-56\cdot 25\cdot 4[/tex]
By using associative property of multiplication, we have
[tex]-56\cdot(25\cdot 4)\\\\= -56\cdot 100\\\\=-5600[/tex]
Hence, [tex]-56\cdot 25\cdot 4 = -5600[/tex] .

AC = 23. AB = 2x + 2, and BC = 3x + 6. Find BC
Answer:
21Step-by-step explanation:
Given AC = 23, AB = 2x + 2 and BC = 3x+6 then using vector notation;
BA+AC = BC
Since BA = -AB
The equation becomes -AB+AC = BC
Substituting the given equations;
-(2x+2)+23 = 3x+6
open the parenthesis
-2x-2+23 = 3x+6
-2x+21 = 3x+6
collect the like terms
-2x-3x = 6 - 21
-5x = -15
Divide both sides by -5
-5x/-5 = -15/-5
x = 3
TO get BC, we will substitute x = 3 into the expression BC = 3x+6
BC = 3(5)+6
BC = 15+6
BC = 21
Hence the length of BC is 21 units

A small newspaper company is downsizing and has lost employers at a steady rate. twelve months ago they had 65 employees, and now they have 29.
Answer:
each month 3 employees were laid off.
Step-by-step explanation:
the company started with 65 employees 12 months ago, and now there are 29. 65 - 29 = 36. In 12 months, 36 employees were laid off. 36 employees divided by 12 months = 3 employees per month.
The width of a rectangle is 2 units shorter than half the length x write an expression that represents the perimeter of the rectangle
Answer:
3x-4
Step-by-step explanation:
Length = x
width = 2 units shorter than half the length x
width = x/2 - 2
For rectangle
perimeter = 2(length + width)
Perimeter for given rectangle = 2(length + width)
Perimeter for given rectangle = 2(x + x/2 - 2) = 2x + 2x/2 -4
Perimeter for given rectangle = 2x+x -4 = 3x -4
Expression that represents the perimeter of the rectangle is 3x-4.

Charlie and Clare are playing a number-guessing game. Charlie picked two numbers between 1 and 5. To win the game, Clare must guess both his numbers in three tries. Her guesses, simulated using a random-number generator, are shown in the table. If Charlie’s numbers are 1 and 3, what is the experimental probability that Clare won?
The experimental probability is 3/10 that Clare won if Charlie's numbers were 1 and 3
What is probability?The probability is defined as the possibility of an event is equal to the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes and the total number of outcomes.
Charlie picked two numbers between 1 and 5
So the numbers should be 2, 3, and 4
There is the number of favorable outcomes is 3
To win the game, Clare must guess both his numbers in three tries
The experimental probability that Clare won if Charlie's numbers were 1 and 3 = P(E)
There are 10 trials given
There are total number of possible outcomes is 10
So the required experimental probability P(E) = favorable outcomes/total outcomes
⇒ P(E) = 3/10
Hence, the experimental probability is 3/10 that Clare won if Charlie's numbers were 1 and 3.

A man weighing 340 pounds is admitted into a hospital for a special diet to lose no more than 6 pounds per week. What is the shortest time in weeks it could take the man to reduce his weight to 243 pounds?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
340-243 =97
97/6 = 16
16 weeks to lose 6 pounds per week.
Answer:
Let's think.
If we want the man to be in the best case scenario in which he loses the most pounds that his limit lets him, we should always make the man lose the highest he could go: 6 pounds.
This is just a simple multi step problem if you break it down.
If his goal is to get to 243 pounds, we firstly subtract 243 from 340 to see how much he needs to lose.
340 - 243 = 97
The man wants to lose 97 pounds.
Let's divide this number by 6 with remainder.
I'll let you think for a bit.
97 / 6 = 16 remainder 1.
This means that in 16 weeks, he needs to lose 6 pounds while on the 17th week, he needs to lose 1 pound.
I'm sorry if i misunderstood.
Good luck Mate :)

two strips of fabric measures 14 3/4 inches and 20 7/8 inches in length. to form one length, the strips are sown together using 1/2 inch from each strip to make the seam. what is the final length of the fabric after two strips are sewn together
Answer:
34 5/8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two strips be fabric A and fabric B
Fabric A= 14 3/4 inches
Fabric B = 20 7/8 inches
To form one length, the strips are sown together using 1/2 inch
Length after sewing=
Fabric A - 1/2 inch
= 14 3/4 inches - 1/2 inch
= 59/4 - 1/2
= 59-2 /4
= 57/4 inches
Length after sewing=
Fabric B - 1/2 inch
= 20 7/8 inches - 1/2 inch
= 167/8 - 1/2
= 167-4 /8
= 163/8 inches
Final length of the fabric after two strips are sewn together
= 57/4 inches + 163/8 inches
= 114+163 /8
= 277/8
= 34 5/8 inches
Final length of the fabric after two strips are sewn together= 34 5/8 inches
