What is the value of x in the proportion below?

1/2 / 4 = x/28

3 1/2
7 1/2
14
56

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A 3 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a number of ways that you can solve this

Method 1)

Since these proportions are set equal to each other, we know that x is also equivalent to 1/2. So, we need to find the whole-number that was multiplied by the first fraction (1/2/4) that gave us the second fraction (x/28).

So we need to divide the denominators

28/4 = 7

Now that we have that number, we will mutiply 1/2 by it because we know that whatever x is the 1/2 times 7 since 28 is 4*7:

1/2 * 7 = 3.5 or 3 1/2, so 3 1/2 is our answer...

Another way that we can solve this is by using the cross product (butterfly method)

Method 2)

Multiply 28 by 1/2 = 14.

Now we will divide 14 by 4. 14/4 = 3.5

3.5 = 3 1/2, so that is our answer.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]B + G \leq 15[/tex]

[tex]6B + 10G \geq 90[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent Babysitting with B

Represent Gas Station with G

Total workhours = At most 15

Earnings = At least $90

First, we need to represent the work hours as inequality

B + G  = At most 15

At most 15 means less than or equal to 15.

So, we have:

[tex]B + G \leq 15[/tex]

Next, we represent the earnings as inequality.

6 hours of babysitting is: 6B

10 hours at gas station is: 10G

So:

6B + 10G is at least 90

At least 90 means greater than or equal to 90

So, we have:

[tex]6B + 10G \geq 90[/tex]

An electrician needs to buy 12 3/5 yards of electrical wire. Wire is sold on spools that have 3 1/2 yards of wire in each. How many whole spools of wire does the electrician need to buy? Write your answer as a decimal.

Answers

He needs to buy 3.6 spools but I guess that wouldn't be possible in real life so he needs to get 4 and then has some leftover.
12 3/5 / 3 1/2 = 3.6

What is the change in temperature from 20 degrees F dropping to -33 degrees F?

Answers

Answer:

53 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Your just finding the difference or the "change" So I did 20+33=53.

Because if it is 20 degrees and has to get to -33 then to get to 0 degrees it's minus 20 then to get to -33 its minus 33 so total I have changed the temp by 53 degrees. Sorry, this was so confusing it's very hard to word.

Every 125 pages that Raul reads during his summer reading challenge, he will collect 5 book points to use at his local library. Which graph models a relationship with the same unit rate?

Answers

Answer:

d. J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Raul gets 5 (y) book points for every 125 (x) pages he reads during summer challenge, we can say that his unit rate would be: y/x = 5/125 = 1/25.

Raul's unit rate is 1/25 book point to each page he reads.

Graph J also has a unit rate of 1/25 (y/x).

Therefore graph J models a relationship with the same unit rate.

A plane begins its takeoff at 2:00 P.M. on a 2200-mile flight. After 12.5 hours, the plane arrives at its destination. Explain why there are at least two times during the flight when the speed of the plane is 100 miles per hour.A) By the Mean Value Theorem, there is a time when the speed of the plane must equal the average speed of 303 mi/hr. The speed was 100 mi/hr when the plane was accelerating to 303 mi/hr and decelerating from 303 mi/hr.B) By the Mean Value Theorem, there is a time when the speed of the plane must equal the average speed of 152 mi/hr. The speed was 100 mi/hr when the plane was accelerating to 152 mi/hr and decelerating from 152 mi/hr.C) By the Mean Value Theorem, there is a time when the speed of the plane must equal the average speed of 88 mi/hr. The speed was 100 mi/hr when the plane was accelerating to 88 mi/hr and decelerating from 88 mi/hr.D) By the Mean Value Theorem, there is a time when the speed of the plane must equal the average speed of 117 mi/hr. The speed was 100 mi/hr when the plane was accelerating to 117 mi/hr and decelerating from 117 mi/hr.E) By the Mean Value Theorem, there is a time when the speed of the plane must equal the average speed of 176 mi/hr. The speed was 100 mi/hr when the plane was accelerating to 176 mi/hr and decelerating from 176 mi/hr.

Answers

Answer:

E) By the Mean Value Theorem, there is a time when the speed of the plane must equal the average speed of 176 mi/hr. The speed was 100 mi/hr when the plane was accelerating to 176 mi/hr and decelerating from 176 mi/hr.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have the average velocity v = 2200/12.5

= 176miles/hr

The function Which describes the velocity of a plane is continuous. At point t, f(t) is equal to 176. So by the mean value theorem we arrive at a conclusion that the velocity is going to attain the speed of 100 miles per hour twice. The first time is during acceleration, and the second time is during deceleration. So by this, the answer to this question is option E.

The larger number is:​

Answers

Answer:

Larger is -30

Smaller is -20

Step-by-step explanation:

-50/2 = -25

difference is -10

add 5 to one number minus 5 from the other

so

-25 - 5 = -30

-25 + 5 = -20

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

be careful how you answer this

the larger number (y) = - 20

the smaller number (x) = - 30  

Think money. Which would you rather be: 20 dollars in the hole or 30 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = -50

x - y =  -10                             Add

2x = - 60                               Divide both sides by 2    

2x/2 = -60/2                         Do the division

x = - 30

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

-30 - y = - 10                         Substitute - 30 for x in the second equation

-30+30- y = -10 + 30            Add 30 to both sides

-y = +20                                Divide by -1 on both sides

y = - 20

The proportion of observations from a standard Normal distribution that take values larger than -0.75 is about A) 0.2266 B) 0.7704 C) 0.7734 D) 0.7764 E) 0.8023

Answers

Answer:

Option C: 0.7734

Step-by-step explanation:

From z-distribution table attached,

P(Z ≤ -0.75) = 0.2266

However, we are looking for proportion of observations from a standard Normal distribution that take values larger than -0.75.

Thus;

P(Z > -0.75) = P(Z ≤ 0.75) = 1 - 0.2266

P(Z > -0.75) = 0.7734

Option C is the correct answer.

y = 42

2) y = 4(4) + 30

y = 20 + 30

y = 50
