A textbook store sold a combined total of 209 history and math textbooks
in a week. The number of math textbooks sold was 75 less than the
number of history textbooks sold. How many textbooks of each type
were sold?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

67 math, 142 history

Step-by-step explanation:

lets say the number of math textbooks was x and the number of history textbooks is y. we have x+y=209 and x=y-75. we can plug the second equation into the first to get y-75+y=209. simplfy to get 2y=284 so y=142. since x=y-75, x=67

The final velocity V of an object

Answers

Answer:

The final velocity, V, of an object under constant acceleration can be found using the formula V2=v2+2as , where v is the initial velocity in meters per second, a is acceleration in meters per second, and s is the distance in meters.

Final velocity (v) of an object equals initial velocity (u) of that object plus acceleration a Final velocity (v) of an object equals initial velocity (u) of that object plus acceleration (a) of the object times the elapsed time (t) from u to v. of the object times the elapsed time t from u to v

what is the measure of x?

Answers

Answer:

Hello!

After reviewing the problem you have provided I have come up with the correct solution:

x= 9

Step-by-step explanation:

To come up with this solution you have to first realize that the smaller triangle is a proportionally scaled down version of the entire larger triangle! (I will show what I mean in a linked picture)

So after we have realized that the smaller triangle is a scaled down version of the larger one, we can then create a formula or ratio to calculate the value of the missing side of the larger triangle (being x+6=??).

To create the formula/ratio I divided 10inches by 4inches. Thus the larger triangle is 2.5 times larger than the smaller one.

I then use this ratio to figure out the missing length of the larger triangle by doing:

6inches x 2.5 = 15inches.

I then inputed the 15inches into the formula of the missing side:

x+6=15

Subtracted 6 from both sides to simplify, and came up with the solution!

x=9

Answers

Answer:last one

Step-by-step explanation:

A random number generator picks a number from 6 to 66 in a uniform manner, its resultants are  mathematically given as

X=36[tex]\sigma=5[/tex]p(x=19)=0.2167P(28 < x < 46) =0.3 P(x > 48)=0.3P(x > 17 | x < 62) =0.75k=29.4h=15

What is the mean of this distribution?

Generally, the equation for Mean is mathematically given as

[tex]X=\frac{a+b}{2}\\\\Therefore\\\\X=\frac{6+66}{2}[/tex]

X=36

b)

Generally, the equation for standard deviation is mathematically given as

[tex]\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{b-a}{12}^2}\\\\Therefore\\\\\sigma=\sqrt{(\frac{66-6}{12})^2}\\\\\sigma=\sqrt{25}\\\\[/tex]

[tex]\sigma=5[/tex]

c)

The probability that the number will be exactly 19

[tex]p(x=19)=\frac{19-6}{66-6}[/tex]

p(x=19)=0.2167

d)

The probability that the number will be between 28 and 46 is P(28 < x < 46)

[tex]P(28 < x < 46) =\frac{46-6}{66-6} -(\frac{28-6}{66-6})[/tex]

P(28 < x < 46) =0.3

e)

The probability that the number will be larger than 48 is P(x > 48)

[tex]P(x > 48)=1-P(x\leq 48)[/tex]

Therefore

[tex]P(x > 48)=1-(\frac{48-6}{66-6})[/tex]

P(x > 48)=0.3

f)

[tex]P(x > 17 | x < 62) = P(x\leq 62-P(x leq 17))[/tex]

Therefore

[tex]P(x > 17 | x < 62) =\frac{62-6}{66-6}-(\frac{17-6}{66-6})[/tex]

P(x > 17 | x < 62) =0.75

g)

The 49th percentile

[tex]p(x\leqk=k.(1/66-6))[/tex]

Therefore

[tex]0.49=k*(1/(66-6))[/tex]

k=29.4

Suppose an annuity pays 7.0% annual interest, compounded annually. If you invest $3,000 every year for 5 years, what percentage of the balance in the account is interest earned?
Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a percent.

Answers

Answer:

  13.05%

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of an ordinary annuity earning interest compounded annually is ...

  A = P((1 +r)^n -1)/r . . . . . interest rate r for n years on principal payments P

For this account, the balance after 5 years will be ...

  A = 3000((1 +.07)^5 -1)/0.07 = 3000·5.750739

The sum of payments is ...

  payment total = 3000·5

Then the amount of interest is ...

  3000·(5.750739 -5) = 3000·0.750739

and the fraction that is of the account balance is ...

  (3000·0.750739)/(3000·5.750739) × 100% ≈ 13.05%

About 13.05% of the balance is interest earned.

It takes Evelyn, traveling at 36 mph, 45 minutes longer to go a certain distance than it takes Ricky traveling at 72 mph. Find the distance traveled.

Answers

The distance travelled by both Evelyn and Ricky is 45 miles

If Speed = dist/time, then;

dist = speed * time

We also know that both of them travel the same distance, so we equate the distance travelled to each other

36 * x+45 = 72 * x

36x + 1620 = 72x

72x - 36x = 1620

36x = 1620

x = 1620/36

x = 45 miles
