books were in Maria's
collection?


No links please

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

167 books.

30% =  50 books

1% = 50/30

100% =  (50/30) * 100

= 167 books.

5. PA license plates have 3 letters followed by 4 numbers.
a. If the same letter or number can be repeated, how many can be made?
b. If the same letter CANNOT be repeated, how many can be made?

Answers

Answer:

A. 175,760,000

B. 156,000,000

Step-by-step explanation:

For part A:

There are 26 letters in the alphabet.  Therefore, if there are 3 spots to use 26 letters, that is represented as [tex]26^3[/tex].  As for numbers, there are 10 digits from 0-9.  So if there are 4 spots for numbers, the total possible number of sequences is [tex]10^4[/tex].  So you simply multiply [tex]26^3[/tex] and [tex]10^4[/tex] to get 175,760,000 possible combinations.

For part B:

If the same letter can't be repeated, instead of using an exponent, we have to use a factorial, but only for the 3 digits required in the license plate.  These are called permutations and can be expressed as [tex]_2_6P_3[/tex], which is the same as saying 26 x 25 x 24.  Since there is no change to number of numbers, that remains the same.

[tex]_2_6P_3 * 10^4 =26*25*24*10^4=156,000,000[/tex]

Paul can build a desk in 12
hours. Shawn can build the
same desk in 8 hours. How
long would it take them to
build it together?
[?] minutes

Answers

Answer:

288

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find how much of the desk each person can finish in 1 hour. Paul can finish 1/12 because he finishes the whole thing in 12 hours and Shawn can finish 1/8 because he finishes the whole thing in 8 hours.

Then find a common denominator and add those together to find how much they could do together in 1 hour.

2/24 + 3/24 = 5/24 So they can finish 5/24 of the desk in 1 hour if they work together.

So to finish 24/24 of the desk, they'll need to do 4 hours (20/24 of the desk) and 48 minutes (4/24 of the desk)

It asked for the number of minutes, so multiply 4 by 60 and add 48 to find the total number of minutes. 4*60 = 240 and 240 + 48 = 288

So it will take them 288 minutes to build the desk together.

Explanation- 9x4= 36 and 288 divided by 36 equal 8

Answer:

8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume = length * width * height

Substitute the values.

288 = 9 * 4 * height

Divide both sides by 36

height = 288/36

height = 8 feet

b. 10.2 yards
d. 12.7 yards
a.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  b.  10.2 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic formula tells you the solutions to ...

  ax² +bx +c = 0

are given by ...

  [tex]x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Here, the quadratic equation we have is ...

  h² +5h -155 = 0

So the solutions given by the quadratic formula are ...

  [tex]h=\dfrac{-5\pm\sqrt{5^2-4(1)(-155)}}{2(1)}=\dfrac{-5\pm\sqrt{645}}{2}=\{-15.2,10.2\}[/tex]

The negative solution is not applicable in this situation, so the height that gives the desired area is 10.2 yards.

Answer:

  177°, 3°

Step-by-step explanation:

If the smaller angle is s, then the sum of the two angles is ...

  s + 59s = 180°

  s = 180°/60 = 3° . . . . . divide by the coefficient of s

  59s = 177° . . . . . . . . . find the larger angle

In order to set​ rates, an insurance company is trying to estimate the number of sick days that full time workers at an auto repair shop take per year. A previous study indicated that the population standard deviation is 2.8 days. How large a sample must be selected if the company wants to be​ 95% confident that the true mean differs from the sample mean by no more than 1​ day?
A. 512
B. 1024
C. 141
D. 31

Answers

Answer:

D. 31

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

A previous study indicated that the population standard deviation is 2.8 days.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 2.8[/tex]

How large a sample must be selected if the company wants to be​ 95% confident that the true mean differs from the sample mean by no more than 1​ day?

This is n for which M = 1. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]1 = 1.96\frac{2.8}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = 1.96*2.8[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (1.96*2.8)^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 30.12[/tex]

We have to determine which statement describes the behavior of the function around the vertical asymptotes.

What is the vertical asymptotes?

A vertical asymptote is a vertical line that guides the graph of the function but is not part of it. It can never be crossed by the graph because it occurs at the x-value that is not in the domain of the function. A function may have more than one vertical asymptote.

If you look from both sides of the graphs you can see it adds upward.
