5. Two-fifths of a number is -26. Find the number.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -65

Step-by-step explanation:

To start off, we can create our equation. We know that "of" is just another word for multiply. We will then end up with [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] * x = -26. To solve this equation, we will find [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] of -26. To make things less confusing, lets take away the negative for now. 26 x 5 = 130 and 130 ÷ 2  is 65. We then add our negative back on and x = -65.

A number is called flippy if its digits alternate between two distinct digits. For example, 2020 and 37373 are flippy, but 3883 and 123123 are not. How many five-digit flippy numbers are divisible by 15?
A 3
B 4
C 5
D 6
E 8

Answers

Answer: B: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

A number is divisible by 15 if the number ends on a 0 or a 5, and the sum of its digits is divisible by 3.

We want to find a 5 digit flippy number, this can be: modeled with:

N = ababa

Where a and b are single digit numbers.

If we impose that N must end with a zero, then we will have:

N  = 0b0b0 = b0b0

This is a 4-digit number, so we can discard all the options that end with a zero.

Then the only option that we have are the numbers like:

B = 5b5b5

This number will be only divisible by 15 if:

5 + b + 5 + b + 5 = K is divisible by 3.

Then let's try find the possible values of b.

K = 3*5 + 2*b

K has two terms, the left term is already divisible by 3, then K will be divisible by 3 only if the other term is also divisible by 3.

Then we want 2*b to be divisible by 3.

And 2 is a prime number, then b must be divisible by 3, and we know that b is a number between {0,1 , 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 ,9}

The options are:

2*0 = 0 is divisible by 3.

2*3  = 6 is divisible by 3.

2*6 = 12 is divisible by 3

2*9 = 12 is divisible by 3.

Then we have four values of b such that:

N = 5b5b5 is divisible by 15.

Then the correct option is: B: 4

PlS HELP QUICKLY :One of the roots of the equation x2−bx+c=0 is equal to 5. Find c in terms of b.:
Guys pls help and find what C is equal to.

Answers

Answer:First suppose that the roots of the equation

x2−bx+c=0(1)

are real and positive. From the quadratic formula, we see that the roots of (1) are of the form

b±b2−4c⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√2.

For the root or roots to be real, we require that b2−4c≥0, that is, b2≥4c. In order for them to be positive, we require that

b−b2−4c⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√>0.

This immediately tells us that b>0, but we can go further. We can rearrange this to get

b>b2−4c⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√,

which (assuming that b>0) is true if and only if

b2>b2−4c,

since both sides of the inequality are positive so we may square. But then

4c>0.

That is, if the roots are real and positive then b>0 and b2≥4c>0.

Now suppose that b>0 and b2≥4c>0.

Then the roots of (1) are real since b2−4c≥0, and b>0 guarantees that the root b+b2−4c⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√ is positive.

So it remains to show that b−b2−4c⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√>0. We have that

4c>0,

so that

b2>b2−4c,

then square rooting shows that

b>b2−4c⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√,

so the roots of (1) are real and positive, as required.

Approach 2

the curve y equals x squared minus b x plus c showing two positive roots for y equals zero

This is intended to be a proof without words! We have from the diagram that:

If c, b and b2−4c are all positive, there are two real positive roots for x2−bx+c=0 (if b2=4c, we have two real positive equal roots).

If there are two real positive roots for x2−bx+c=0, then c and b are positive and b2−4c is non-negative.

(Why is the distance between the roots b2−4c⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√?)

Approach 3

When solving problems about the roots of polynomials, it is often useful to find expressions those roots must satisfy and see if this tells us anything new. If α and β denote the roots of the equation, then

x2−bx+c=(x−α)(x−β)=x2−(α+β)x+αβ

and so α+β=b and αβ=c.

We also know that the roots of a quadratic equation are real if and only if the discriminant is non-negative, that is, if and only if b2−4c≥0.

Using these facts, if α and β are both real and positive, then b=α+β>0, c=αβ>0 and b2≥4c, as above.

Conversely, if b>0 and b2≥4c>0, then we know the discriminant is positive and hence both roots are real. We also have that

αβ>0(2)

and

α+β>0.(3)

As α and β are both real, by (2), we know that α and β are either both positive or both negative. However, if α and β were both negative, then (3) could not possibly hold. Hence α and β are both positive, as required.

We now sketch on a graph the region where b>0, c>0 and b2≥4c:

The curve b squared = 4 c as a quadratic with the c-axis vertical and the b-axis horizontal. The region below it is shaded.

The region of the b-c plane for which b>0, c>0 and b2≥4c

Sketch the region of the b-c plane in which the roots of the equation are real and less than 1 in magnitude.

We know that in order for the roots to be real we need b2≥4c as in the first part. We now need to find the region where

−1<b±b2−4c⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√2<1.(4)

We have b−b2−4c⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√2≤b+b2−4c⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√2 so we only need to consider the values for which both

−1<b−b2−4c⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√2andb+b2−4c⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√2<1.

Firstly, we will consider the values for which

b+b2−4c⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√<2.

Rearranging gives

b2−4c⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√<2−b.

So b<2, as the square root is non-negative, and we can square both sides to get

b2−4c<4−4b+b2,

which we may rearrange to find c>b−1.

We will now consider the values for which

−2<b−b2−4c⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√.

Similarly, we can rearrange to get

b2−4c⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√<b+2.

So b>−2, and we can, as before, square to get

b2−4c<b2+4b+4,

and hence c>−b−1.

To sketch the graph, we start by considering the boundary curves b2=4c, c=b−1 and c=−b−1, and the points at which they intersect. We can see that the two lines only intersect when b=0 and c=−1, and the lines intersect the curve when

b2=4b−4andb2=−4b−4

which rearrange to

(b−2)2=0and(b+2)2=0.

This tells us that each line intersects with the curve in only one place and so these lines must be tangent.

Is there a way we could have deduced this directly from (4)?

What do the lines being tangent signify in terms of our equation x2−bx+c=0?

Is this a representation of a well-known property of these equations?

Sketching the graph then yields the following picture:

The graph with the previous curve and the lines 4 c = 4 b minus 4 and 4 c = minus 4 b - 4. Each line touches the curve once and the two lines intersect at (0, minus 1). The region between the three lines/curves is shaded.

The shaded region is where b2≥4c, c>b−1, c>−b−1 and −2<b<2

We might notice that when we derived the inequalities c>b−1 and c>−b−1, a lot of the work we did was very similar.

We might also notice that the graph above is symmetric about the c axis. Why is this?

Does the graph give us any ideas about how we might deduce one inequality from the other?

1/4 of a pizza was broccoli and half was mushroom and 1/4 was three cheeses. George ate 1/3 of the broccoli part and 1/3 of the mushroom part and 1/2 of the 3 cheese part. How much of the total pizza did he eat?

Answers

1/4 = broccolis
1/2 = mushroom
1/4= 3 cheeses

George ate a 1/3 of the broccoli & 1/2 of the 3 cheeses.

1/3 of 1/4 broccoli= ?
1/2 of 1/4 3 cheeses = ?
1/3 of 1/2 mushrooms= ?

(1/3)/(1/4)= 5/6
(1/2)/(1/4)= 1/6
(1/3)/(1/2)= 1/6

5/6+1/6+1/6= 7/18

He ate 7/18 of the whole pizza.

He ate 5/6 of the broccoli pizza & 1/6 of the 3 cheeses.

The Ride-It Store rents bicycles.The cost is $8.50 for 1 hour, $13.65 for 2 hours,$18.80 for 3 hours, and $23.95 for 4 hours.If the pattern continues, how much will it cost Nate to rent a bike for 6 hours?

Answers

Answer:

in six hours it would be $34.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the total cost for 6 hours is shown below:

For one hour it would be $8.50

For two hours

= $13.65 - $8.50

= $5.15

For three hours

= $18.80 - $13.65

= $5.15

For four hours

= $23.95 - $18.80

= $5.15

For five hours

= $23.95 + $5.15

= $29.10

For six hours

= $29.10 + $5.15

= $34.25

Hence, in six hours it would be $34.25

as the angle is obviously larger than 90°, but not large enough to be 171° as if it were so it would be closer to a straight line (since 171° is closer to 180°) hence, the answer is 141° as it is the only option in between.

Ishaan is 3 times as old as Christopher and is also 14 years older than Christopher.
How old is Ishaan?

Answers

Answer:

Ishaan is 21. Christopher is 7.

Answer:  Ishann is 21 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this situation, we will represent Ishaan age by the variable  y and we will represent Christopher's age by x.

Ishaan is 3 times as old as Christopher and that can be represented by the equation,   y = 3x  

He is also 14 years older, and it can also be represented by the equation,  

y = x + 14.  

y= 3x

y = x + 14  

Using both equations, substitute the value of y in one of the equations into the other.

x + 14 = 3x                   Solve for x .

-x           -x

 14 = 2x  

  x = 7  

This means that Christopher is 7 years old.

To solve for Ishaan's age , input the value of x into one of the equations.

 

y = 3(7)

y = 21.

The chances that a student will get 7 marks out of 10 in first attempt of a certain Quiz while attempting Quiz on BlackBoard LMS is 40%. Suppose that 20 students are selected at random then find a probability that i)Exactly 12 students will get 7 marks out 10 in the Quiz. ii)Fewer than 10 students will get 7 marks out 10 in the Quiz. iii)At least 5 students will get 7 marks out 10 in the Quiz.

Answers

Answer:

i) [tex]P(X=12)=0.0355[/tex]

ii) [tex]P(X<10)=0.7553[/tex]

iii) [tex]P(X\geq 5)=0.9490[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by defining the random variable ⇒

[tex]X:[/tex] '' Number of students that will get 7 marks out of 10 in first attempt of a certain Quiz while attempting Quiz on BlackBoard LMS ''

[tex]X[/tex] is a discrete random variable.

The probability of a randomly selected student getting 7 marks out of 10 is 0.4

(This is a data from the question).

Now, if we assume independence between the students while they are doing the Quiz and also we assume that this probability remains constant , we can modelate [tex]X[/tex] as a binomial random variable ⇒

[tex]X[/tex] ~ Bi (n,p)

Where ''n'' and ''p'' are the parameters of the variable.

''n'' is the number of students attempting the Quiz and ''p'' is the probability that a student will get 7 marks out of 10 which is 0.4 ⇒

[tex]X[/tex] ~ Bi (20, 0.4)  in the question.

The probability function for [tex]X[/tex] is

[tex]p_{X}(x)=P(X=x)=\left(\begin{array}{c}n&x\end{array}\right)p^{x}(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]    (I)

Where [tex]\left(\begin{array}{c}n&x\end{array}\right)[/tex] is the combinatorial number define as

[tex]\left(\begin{array}{c}n&x\end{array}\right)=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

Replacing the parameters in the equation (I) ⇒

[tex]P(X=x)=\left(\begin{array}{c}20&x\end{array}\right)(0.4)^{x}(0.6)^{20-x}[/tex]    (II)

For i) we need to find [tex]P(X=12)[/tex]

Then, we only need to replace by [tex]x=12[/tex] in equation (II) ⇒

[tex]P(X=12)=\left(\begin{array}{c}20&12\end{array}\right)(0.4)^{12}(0.6)^{8}=0.0355[/tex]

For ii) we need to calculate [tex]P(X<10)[/tex]

This probability is equal to ⇒ [tex]P(X<10)=P(X\leq 9)[/tex] and to calculate it we need to sum [tex]P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3)+P(X=4)+P(X=5)[/tex]

[tex]+P(X=6)+P(X=7)+P(X=8)+P(X=9)[/tex]

We can do it summing each term or either using any program.

The result is [tex]P(X<10)=P(X\leq 9)=0.7553[/tex]

Finally for iii) we need to find  ⇒ [tex]P(X\geq 5)[/tex]

This probability is equal to ⇒ [tex]P(X\geq 5)=1-P(X\leq 4)[/tex] ⇒

[tex]1-P(X\leq 4)=1-[P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3)+P(X=4)][/tex]

Again we can find each term by using the equation (II) or either using a program. The result is [tex]P(X\geq 5)=0.9490[/tex]
