At the local pet store, zebrafish cost $2.10 each, and neon tetras cost $1.95 each. if ernesto bought 13 fish for a total cost of $26.70 not including tax, how many of each type of fish did he buy?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

zebrafish: 9neon tetras: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The numbers of zebrafish and neon tetras can be found by writing an equation relating the numbers of each to their total cost.

__

setup

Let z represent the number of zebrafish Ernesto bought. Then the number of neon tetras is (13 -z), and the total cost of the purchase was ...

  2.10z +1.95(13 -z) = 26.70

solution

  0.15z +25.35 = 26.70 . . . . . . simplify

  0.15z = 1.35 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 25.35

  z = 9 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.15

Ernesto bought 9 zebrafish and 4 neon tetras.

Class A has 26 pupils and class B has 14 both classes sit the same maths test . The mean score for class A is 66 the mean score for both classes is 66. What is the mean score in maths test for class B

Answers

Answer:

66

Step-by-step explanation:

this is actually an almost trick question because it wants to confuse you!

Here's the trick

to work out a mean (average) you add all the components together then divide by the amount of groups.

but here they didn't give you components just the mean of the classes...both of them.

the question says "The mean fpor class A is 66, the mean score for BOTH classes is 66"

so this means that Class B's mean score is 66 too

Based on the distance to the end of the hike and the distance to the scenic lookout, we can calculate that the straight route is 2 km shorter than the scenic lookout route.

Which route is shorter for Maria?

If Maria took the straight route to the end of the Hike from the coordinates, (4, -4) to (-5, 5), she would have to walk 13 km.

If she went the scenic lookout route, she would have to first go to (2,3) before going to (-5,5) which is 15 km.

The difference is:

= 15 - 13

= 2 km

The mean percent of childhood asthma prevalence in 43 cities is 2.25​%. A random sample of 31 of these cities is selected. What is the probability that the mean childhood asthma prevalence for the sample is greater than 2.7​%? Interpret this probability. Assume that σ= 1.27​%.

The probability is
(Round to four decimal place)

Answers

The Probability that the mean childhood asthma prevalence for the sample is greater than 2.7% is 0.0357.

What is Probability ?

Probability refers to a possibility that deals with the occurrence of random events.

The probability of all the events occurring need to be 1.

For a Normal Distribution, the z-score formula

[tex]z = \dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

Here X is the mean and sigma is the standard deviation.

Mean of 2.25​% = 2.25​

The standard deviation of 1.27%, sigma = 1.27

For Sample 31 the value of the standard deviation is

s = 1.27/√31

s = 0.2442

Substituting the values

Z = ( 2.25 -1.27)/0.2442

Z = 1.8

the p-value from the graph of z and p = 0.9643

To determine value of probability greater than X is 1 - 0.9643 = 0.0357

The Probability that the mean childhood asthma prevalence for the sample is greater than 2.7% is 0.0357.

Step-by-step explanation:

see image. Factor the expression. Solve for sin theta. Then use a calculator or unit circle to solve for theta. See image.

Let's simplify the problem down a little:

 ⇒ set 'sin(θ)' as x

    ⇒ the new equation looks like: [tex]2x^2+5x-3=0[/tex]

Now let's solve this equation as a quadratic:

 [tex]2x^2+5x-3=0\\(2x-1)(x+3)=0\\\\2x-1=0\\x = \frac{1}{2} \\\\x+3 = 0\\x=-3[/tex]

Now set the x value of '1/2', to sin(θ)

it can't be -3, because trig functions can't equal a negative number

         sin(θ) = 1/2

            θ = π/6, which is between the range given

To solve this expression, just replace 'x' with -2. When the expression is ready, let's calculate it.

f( x ) = 3x - 1

f(-2) = 3 · (-2) - 1

Answer:

x = 90°

Explanation (Concepts) :

A straight line has total 180° angle. A square has 4 sides of each 90° angle. A triangle is build up of 180° interior angle.

Workouts:

z + 90° + 50° = 180°

z = 180° - 90° - 50°

z = 40°

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

x + 90° = 180°

x = 180° - 90°

x = 90°

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

50° + 90° + y = 180°

y = 180° - 90° - 50°

y = 40°

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 90°

no solution, one solution, or infinitely many solutions?

Answers

8v + 3 -4v = 4v + 5 -3 has infinitely many solutions

7v - 11 = 7v + 11 has no solution

3(v-4) = 2(v-6) has one solution

5(2v+3) - 2 = 12v + 12 -2v has no solution

When does an equation have one solution, no solution or infinitely many solutions?

A linear equation is said to have infinitely many solution when the variable term and the constant term are the same on both sides of the equation.

A linear equation is said to have no solution, if the coefficient of the variable term is zero and the constant term a non-zero term

A linear equation is said to have one solution if the coefficient of both the constant term and the variable terms are no zero.

Analysis:

8v + 3 -4v = 4v + 5-2

4v +3 = 4v+3

The equation has an infinitely many solutions

7v-11 = 7v+11

7v-7v = 11+11

0v = 22

The equation has no solution since the coefficient of the variable term is 0

3(v-4) = 2(v-6)

3v -12 = 2v - 12

v = 12-12 = 0

The equation has one solution

5(2v+3) -2 = 12v + 12-2v

10v+15-2 = 10v +12

0v = -1

The equation has no solution.

In conclusion,

8v + 3 -4v = 4v + 5 -3 has infinitely many solutions

7v - 11 = 7v + 11 has no solution

3(v-4) = 2(v-6) has one solution

5(2v+3) - 2 = 12v + 12 -2v has no solution
