Lenny is competing with his cousin, Jasper, in an indoor rock-climbing contest. At the start of the climb, Lenny makes his way 5 ¼ feet up the wall, while Jasper climbs 9 ¾ feet. How much farther did Jasper climb than Lenny?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]4\frac{1}{2}[/tex] feet further.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since these are mixed numbers that are both in fourths, we can easily subtract the two numbers. However, I find it easier if we first convert both mixed numbers into improper fractions.

[tex]5\frac{1}{4} = \frac{5\cdot4+1}{4} = \frac{21}{4}[/tex]

[tex]9\frac{3}{4} = \frac{9\cdot4+3}{4} = \frac{39}{4}[/tex]

Now we can subtract the numerators:

[tex]\frac{39}{4} - \frac{21}{4} = \frac{39-21}{4} = \frac{18}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{18}{4}[/tex] simplifies down to [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex].

Converting  [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex] to a mixed number is easy - 2 goes into 9 4 times (8) with one remainder so:

[tex]4\frac{1}{2}[/tex] .

Hope this helped!

Help please! How would I solve a 2 step equation like this? 4(x-2)=14

Answers

Answer: Hi!

Okay. So this equation we will solve using something called the distributive property. We use the distributive property to multiply the terms inside the parentheses (x and -2) by the term outside and in front of the parentheses (4). First, we would multiply 4 * x, which is 4x. Then, we would multiply 4 * -2, which is -8. Out equation now looks like this:

4x - 8 = 14

Our goal is to isolate the x, so now we'll use inverse operations to remove the -8 from the equation. The inverse operation for subtraction is addition, so we would add 8 to both sides:

4x - 8 = 14

   + 8  + 8

The eights cancel out, so we're left with this equation:

4x = 22

Last step! We're almost done. All we have to do now is divide 4 on both sides; in the term 4x, 4 is being multiplied by x, so the inverse operation would be division.

4x ÷ 4 = x

22 ÷ 4 = 5.5

Our equation now looks like this:

x = 5.5

So, 5.5 is equal to x! This would be your answer!

D( Geese fly in V formation. The V forms a right angle that has 16 geese on 1 side and 12 geese on the other side. How many gesse would fill in the gap between the ends of each sides of the V formation?

Answers

Answer:

20 will fly in the missing side.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a 90^o angle.

heres the formula for side c:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

So,

12^2 + 16^2 = c^2

144 + 256 = c^2

square root of 400 = c

c = 20

So, 20 will fly in the missing gap of the V formation.

For the given graph, a. describe the end behavior,
b. determine whether it represents an odd-degree or even-degree polynomial function, and
c. state the number of real zeros.

Answers

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

A)

The end behavior is basically how the function behaves as it approaches negative or positive infinity.

As the function approaches negative infinity, we can see that the graph is going up. In other words:

[tex]f(x)\rightarrow\infty\text{ as }x\rightarrow-\infty[/tex]

As the function approaches positive infinity, we can see that the graph is going down. In other words:

[tex]f(x)\rightarrow-\infty\text{ as }x\rightarrow\infty[/tex]

B)

In even-degree polynomials, both ends of the graph will be going the same way. In this graph, the two ends are going opposite ways so this is an odd-degree function.

C)

The number of real zeros is simply the amount of times the graph crosses the x-axis. In the graph, the function does this three times. Thus, the number of real zeros is 3.

Answers

Answer:

$200,000 in bank A, $200,000 in bank B, $230,000 in bank C

Step-by-step explanation:

Meredith has $630,000

Limit per depositor, per bank, is $250,000

She needs to distribute her money between three Banks to guarantee that her money is insured.

A. $200,000 in bank A, $200,000 in bank B, $230,000 in bank C

It can be seen in A that her deposit per bank deposit didn't exceed the $250,000 limit in the three Banks.

B. $200,000 in bank A, $170,000 in bank B, $260,000 in bank C

Here, her deposit in bank C exceeds $250,000, so there is no guarantee for insurance in bank C

C. $160,000 in bank A, $180,000 in bank B, $290,000 in bank C

Her deposit in bank C is $290,000 which exceeds the $250,000 limit. Therefore, no guarantee for insurance of her money in bank C

D. $160,000 in bank A, $200,000 in bank B, $270,000 in bank C

you

Also, her deposit in bank C exceeds $250,000, so there is no guarantee for insurance in bank C

The way her money can be distributed between three Banks and guarantee insurance is

A. $200,000 in bank A, $200,000 in bank B, $230,000 in bank C.

That way, her deposit per bank is less than the $250,000 limit

3 Answers: Choice B, C, and D

Basically, everything except choice A.

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

Explanation:

All exponential functions can be written into the form y = a*b^x

The b term determines if we have growth or decay.

If 0 < b < 1, then we have decay. If b > 1, then we have growth.

------------

For choice A, we have b = 1.7 which satisfies b > 1. This represents growth. So we cross choice A off the list.

Choice B looks almost identical since it appears b = 1.7 here as well, but note the negative exponent. It might help to rewrite choice B into y = 3( 1.7^(-2) )^x and note how b = (1.7)^(-2) = 0.346 approximately. This represents decay.

Choice C has b = 1/3 = 0.33 approximately which is also decay.

Finally, choice D has b = 2^(-1) = 1/(2^1) = 1/2 = 0.5 which is also decay.

Choices B through D have b values such that 0 < b < 1.

------------

Check out the graph below. It visually confirms the answers mentioned earlier. A growth function goes uphill as we move to the right, while a decay function moves downhill while moving to the right.

-8a-5=-7a+3 help someone

Answers

Answer: a = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

-8a - 5 = -7a + 3

Subtract 3 on both sides

-8a - 5 - 3 = -7a + 3 - 3

-8a - 8 = -7a

Add 8a on both sides

-8a - 8 + 8a = -7a + 8a

a = -8

Hope this helps!! :)

Please let me know if you have any questions

Answer:

a = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

-8a-5=-7a+3                    Add 5 to both sides.

- 8a = - 7a + 3 + 5           Combine

-8a = - 7a + 8                  Add 7a to both sides

-8a + 7a = 8                    Combine

-a = 8                              Multiply by - 1

a = - 8                          

When you get a weird number like this, you should check it.

LHS = -8(-8) - 5

LHS = 64 - 5

LHS = 59

RHS = -(7*-8) + 3

RHS = -(-56) + 3

RHS = 56 + 3

RHS = 59

So a = - 8 must be right.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\bold{sin(38^\circ)=cos(52^\circ)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that [tex]\triangle KJL[/tex] is a right angled triangle.

[tex]\angle JKL = 52^\circ\\\angle KLJ = 38^\circ[/tex]

and

[tex]\angle KJL = 90^\circ[/tex]

Kindly refer to the attached image of [tex]\triangle KJL[/tex] in which all the given angles are shown.

To find:

sin(38°) = ?

a) cos(38°)

b) cos(52°)

c) tan(38°)

d) tan(52°)

Solution:

Let us use the trigonometric identities in the given [tex]\triangle KJL[/tex].

We have to find the value of sin(38°).

We know that sine trigonometric identity is given as:

[tex]sin\theta =\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]

[tex]sin(\angle JLK) = \dfrac{JK}{KL}\\OR\\sin(38^\circ) = \dfrac{JK}{KL}[/tex]....... (1)

Now, let us find out the values of trigonometric functions given in options one by one:

[tex]cos\theta =\dfrac{Base}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]

[tex]cos(\angle JLK) = \dfrac{JL}{KL}\\OR\\cos(38^\circ) = \dfrac{JL}{KL}[/tex]....... (2)

By (1) and (2):

sin(38°) [tex]\neq[/tex] cos(38°).

[tex]cos(\angle JKL) = \dfrac{JK}{KL}\\OR\\cos(52^\circ) = \dfrac{JK}{KL}[/tex] ...... (3)

Comparing equations (1) and (3):

we get the both are same.

Answers

Answer:

c. 18

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you would find the total sum of the 60 numbers. The average is always the sum of the numbers divided by the number of numbers.

35*18=630

15*10=150

Now we do not know how many numbers the last group has. However, we can find it out doing 60-35-15 to see how many numbers are left. There would be 10 numbers left

10*30=300

630+150+300=1080

1080/60=18

Kelly pours 1/3 liter of fruit punch into each glass at a party for her chess team.

What is the division operation?

In mathematics, divides left-hand operands into right-hand operands in the division operation.

For example 4/2 = 2

She combined 1 2/5 liters of cranberry juice and 1 3/5 liters of pineapple juice which are given in the question.

As per the above situation, the required solution would be

⇒ 1 2/5 + 1 3/5

Convert mixed numbers to fractions,

⇒ 7/5 + 8/5

Take the LCM in the above equation,

⇒ (7 + 8)/5

⇒ 15/5

⇒ 3

Then, she split the fruit punch evenly among 9 glasses.

Now, we have to divide 3 liters of fruit punch into 9 glasses

So 3/9 = 1/3 liters of fruit punch

Therefore, she pours 1/3 liter of fruit punch into each glass.
