Please put this answer in a easy way (no algebra) use ratios and basic opreations.

Answers

Answer 1

The number of students attending the field trip is 304 and the number of adults is 114.

Calculating number of students and adults attending a field trip

From the question, we are to determine the number of students and adults attending the field trip.

From the given information,

"The ratio of the number of adults to the number of students at a field trip has to be 3:8"

Let the number of students be x and the number of adults be y

Thus,

y/x = 3/8

8y = 3x           ------------- (1)

Also,

There are 190 more students on the trip than there are adults

That is,

x - y = 190

Therefore,

x = 190 + y      -------------- (2)

Substitute into equation

8y = 3x

8y = 3(190 + y)

8y = 570 + 3y

8y - 3y = 570

5y = 570

y = 570/5

y = 114

Thus, the number of adults is 114

Substitute the value of y into equation (2)

x = 190 + y

x = 190 + 114

x = 304

Hence, the number of students is 304

To obtain the expression for the composition of the function of the inverse function of x, the following steps are necessary:

Step 1: Write out the expression for the function of x and the inverse function of x, as below:

[tex]\begin{gathered} f(x)=\sqrt[5]{5-4x} \\ ^{}f^{-1}(x)=\frac{5-x^5}{4} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Step 2: Write out the expression for the composition of the function of the inverse function of x, as below:

You Try! As an Equation Example B: A rectangle has a width that is 5 feet less than the length. The area of the rectangle is 126 square feet. Find the dimensions of the rectangle. Write an equation to model this problem and solve it in the sketch area below. 市里。 Entrega

Answers

Let the width be w and the length be l

Since the width is 5ft less than the length,

then

w=l-5

The area of the rectangle is 126 square feet

Then

l times w = 126

therefore

l(l-5) = 126

[tex]\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow l^2-5l=126 \\ \Rightarrow l^2-5l-126=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Factorising the equation, we have:

[tex]\begin{gathered} l^2+9l-14l-126=0 \\ \Rightarrow(l+9)(l-14)=0 \\ \Rightarrow l=-9\text{ or 14} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Since l cannot be negative

then the only correct option is l=14

Since w = l - 5

then

w = 14 - 5 = 9

Therefore the length is 14ft and the width is 9ft

The half-life of a certain substance is 27 years. How long will it take for a sample of this substance to decay to 66% of its original amount? for the sample of the substance to decay to 66% of its original amount

Answers

This is a type of radioactive decay problem. Given an initial amount of N0, the amount at t years is given by

[tex]N(t)=N_0e^{-\lambda t}[/tex]

The information "27 years is the half-life of the substance" means that if we replace t by 27, we will get exactly half of the initial amount we had. That is

[tex]N_0e^{-\lambda\cdot27}=\frac{N_0}{2}[/tex]

We can cancell out N0 on both sides, so we get

[tex]e^{-\lambda\cdot27}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

using the properties of exponentials, we have the equivalent equation

[tex]\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{e^{\lambda\cdot27}}[/tex]

which is also equivalent to

[tex]e^{\lambda\cdot27}=2[/tex]

If we apply natural logarithm on both sides, we get

[tex]\ln (e^{\lambda\cdot27})=\lambda\cdot27=\ln (2)[/tex]

Finally, we can divide both sides by 27, to get

[tex]\lambda=\frac{\ln (2)}{27}[/tex]

So, the function that describes the amount of the subtances at time t is given as

[tex]N(t)=N_0e^{\frac{-\ln (2)\cdot t}{27}}[/tex]

Now, we want to calculate the value of t, for which the amount we have at year t is exactly 66% of what we have at t=0. That is

[tex]\frac{N_0e^{-\frac{\ln (2)\cdot t}{27}}}{N_0}=0.66[/tex]

We can cancell out N0 and, by equivalence by using the properties of exponents, we get

[tex]\frac{1}{e^{\frac{\ln(2)}{27}\cdot t}}=0.66[/tex]

which is also equivalent to

[tex]\frac{1}{0.66}=e^{\frac{\ln (2)t}{27}}[/tex]

if we apply the natural logarithm on both sides, we get

[tex]\ln (\frac{1}{0.66})=\ln (e^{\frac{\ln(2)\cdot t}{27}})=\ln (2)\cdot\frac{t}{27}[/tex]

Finally, we want to solve for t. To do so, we can multiply by 27 and then divide by ln(2). So we get

[tex]t=\frac{27}{\ln(2)}\cdot\ln (\frac{1}{0.66})[/tex]

with help of a calculator, we have that t is approximately 16.185. That is, about after 16 years, we will have 66% of the initial amount.

Answers

One year ago the median price for a home was $342,000. Now the current median price for a home is $215,000. What was the percent decrease in the median price of a home over the last year? Give your answer to at least one decimal place.

In this problem

$342,000 ------> represents 100%

so

Applying proportion

Find out how much percentage represents the difference (342,000-215,000=127,000)

100/342,000=x/127,000

solve for x

x=(100/342,000)*127,000

x=37.1%

The table summarizes results from 977 pedestrian deaths that were caused by automobile accidents.Pedestrian DeathsDriverPedestrian Intoxicated?Intoxicated?YesNoYes4885No260584If one of the pedestrian deaths is randomly selected, find the probability that neither the pedestrian nor the driver wasintoxicated. Please enter a decimal to 4 places.Probability

Answers

We are asked to find the probability that neither the pedestrian nor the driver was intoxicated.

Probability is given by

P = number of desired outcomes/total number of outcomes

From the given table we know that

Total number of pedestrian deaths = 977

The desired outcomes are

Driver intoxicated = No and Pedestrian intoxicated = No (584)

So the probability is

P = 584/977

P = 0.5977

Therefore, the probability that neither the pedestrian nor the driver was intoxicated is 0.5977

Mr. Cumme bought the amount of clay listed for his class.- 2.2 kilograms- 1.5 kilograms- 850 grams - 700 gramshow many grams of clay did Mr.Cumme buy?

Answers

Hello there. To solve this question, we have to remember how to convert kilograms to grams.

Given an amount in kilograms, to determine its value in grams, we simply multiply it by 1000.

In this case, we know that Mr. Cume bought the amount of clay listed for his class:

- 2.2 kilograms

- 1.5 kilograms

- 850 grams

- 700 grams

To determine how many grams of clay he bought, we start converting the values from kilograms to grams

2.2 kilograms * 1000 = 2200 grams and

1.5 kilograms * 1000 = 1500 grams

Now, we add everything

2200 + 1500 + 850 + 700 = 5250 grams

This is the final answer to this question.

Answers

Vihaan got 38 in her geography test

Since the geography test has a total score of 48

Since Sahaj got 80% of it, then multiply 80/100 by 48 to find his score

[tex]\frac{80}{100}\times48=38.4[/tex]

Sahaj got 38.4 on the geography test

Since Jada got 0.8125 on her geography test, then multiply 0.8125 by 48 to find her score

[tex]0.8125\times48=39[/tex]

Jada got 39 on the geography test

The greatest one is Jada, then Sahaj, then Vihaan

Quinn thinks that Vihaan got the higher score

But Jada the one who got the higher score

The volume of the figure = volume of first cone + volume of second cone + volume of a hemisphere

Formula

Volume of a cone = 1/3πr²h

The volume of hemisphere = 2/3πr³

Therefore

r = radius , h = height

where h1 = 20in , h2 = 18in and r = 15in

Volume of the first cone = 1/3πr²h1

= 1/3 x π x (15)² x 20

= 1500π in³

Volume of the second cone = 1/3πr²h2

= 1/3 x π x (15)² x 18

= 1350π in³

Volume of hemisphere = 2/3πr³

= 2/3 x π x (15)³

= 2250π in³

Therefore

The volume of the figure = 1500π in³ + 1350π in³ + 2250π in³

= 5100π in³

Hence the volume of the figure = 5100π in³

When they combine their efforts, the amount of work done per day is given by,
