Colin predicted whether he got answers right or wrong in his 50 question exam.

He identified the 12 questions he thought he got wrong.

It turns out that Colin got 5 questions right that he thought he got wrong.

Colin also got a total score of 42 out of 50 in the test.

What is the percentage accuracy he had with predicting his scores?

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

so, he predicted he had 12 questions wrong.

that would have been a score of 38.

but he got 42.

that is a difference of 42-38 = 4.

now, accuracy could have different meanings like actual score vs. predicted score, or which questions were right or wrong (for real or predicted), or only looking at the questions that were right (real vs. predicted), ...

I assume it is the first one.

so,

100% = 38 (prediction)

1% = 100%/100 = 38/100 = 0.38

how many % are these 4 questions that his prediction was off from reality ?

4 / 0.38 = 10.52631579...

so, his prediction was off by about 10.53%

Sprinters who run 100 yards now often run 100 meters.


How many meters longer to the nearest tenth is 100 meters than 100 yards?


Enter the correct answer in the box.

Answers

Answer:

100 meters is 8.6 meters longer than 100 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conversion of yards to meters.

Each yard has 0.914 meters.

So 100 yards is 100*0.9144 = 91.4 meters.

How many meters longer to the nearest tenth is 100 meters than 100 yards?

100 yards = 91.4 meters

100 - 91.4 = 8.6

So 100 meters is 8.6 meters longer than 100 yards.

Answer:

The number of hours Jenny babysits

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that the 10 is the fixed fee for the babysitting services and 5 represents the amount charged per hour, it is safe to say x represents the number of hours Jenny babysits.

Ex.: Let us say she baby sits for 3 hours. 3 would take the place of the x

   5(3)+10. This means Jenny will charge the person she babysat for a total of  

   $15 just for the hours alone.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

x represent the number of hours Jenny Babysits

Step-by-step explanation:

since she charges $5 per hour, then X is always how many hours

Give coordinates for three possible pairs of points for the other two verticies...

Answers

Answer:

A) (-1,3) and (4,3)

B) (-1,-7) and (4,-7)

C) (1.5, .5) and (1.5, -4.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

For 1 and 2, because the y-values of the points are the same, the length of the square can be found by subtracting the x-coordinates.

4-(-1)=4+1=5

The length of the side of the square is 5.

1. For the first set of points, the square is above the two given points so just add 5 to the y-values

-2+5=3

This gives you the points:

(-1,3) and (4,3)

2. For the second set of points, the square is below the two given points so subtract 5 from the y-values.

-2-5=-7

This give you the points:

(-1,-7) and (4,-7)

3. The third answer is when the two given points are on opposite corners

of the square.

Here the diagonal is equal to 5 since they are on opposite corners of the square.

The diagonal of a square can be found with the pythagorean theorem

Since we have the diagonal we can find the side lengths we need.

[tex]2s^2=25[/tex]

s=[tex]\sqrt{\frac{25}{2} }[/tex]

s=3.5355

We want the new vertices to be in the middle of the other vertices x-coordinates

[tex]\frac{4-(-1)}{2} =\frac{5}{2} =2.5[/tex]

The new vertices will be 2.5 units away from the other vertices

-1+2.5=1.5

The new vertices will be at x=1.5

Now we need the pythagorean theorem again to find the y-values

[tex](2.5)^2+h^2=(3.5355)^2[/tex]

[tex]6.25+h^2=\frac{25}{2}[/tex]

[tex]h=\sqrt{\frac{25}{2} -6.25}[/tex]

h=2.5

The new vertices will be:

(1.5, -2+2.5)=(1., .5)

(1.5, -2-2.5)=(1.5, -4.5)

Mr. Doyle mowed 2\5ths of his lawn. His son mowed 1\3rd of it. Who mowed most of the lawn? How much of the lawn still needs to be mowed?How much does Mr. Doyle have left to mow?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Dad:  2/5

Son:  1/3

Who mowed most of the lawn? Dad, of course.  2/5 is larger than 1/3.  2/5 is 40% and 1/3 is 33.333%

How much of the lawn still needs to be mowed?  

 2/5 + 1/3 + X = 1  [1 means the whole lawn.  X is the remaining portion.]

6/15 + 5/15 + X = 1   [Convert each fraction so that they have a com,mon denominator.  This also shows that 2/5 (6/15) is larger than 1/3 (5/15).

11/15 + X = 1

X = 1 - 11/15

X = 4/15 left to be mowed.

How much does Mr. Doyle have left to mow?

We'll assume each rate is the same, 2/5 for Dad and 1/3 for son.

4/15 left to be mowed.

Dad will mow 2/5 of 4/15, so (2/5)*(4/15) = 8/75 left of the original yard

Son will mow 1/3 of 4/15, so (1/3)*(4/15) = 4/45 left of the original yard

Mr. Doyle mowed faster than his son. The amount of lawn still needs to be mowed will be 4/15. Mr. Doyle has left to mow and will be 8/75.

What is Algebra?

Algebra is the study of abstract symbols, while logic is the manipulation of all those ideas.

The acronym PEMDAS stands for Parenthesis, Exponent, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction. This approach is used to answer the problem correctly and completely.

Mr. Doyle mowed 2/5 of his lawn. His son mowed 1/3 of it.

Convert the fraction into a decimal number. Then we have

2/5 = 0.40

1/3 = 0.33

Mr. Doyle mowed faster than his son.

The amount of the lawn still needs to be mowed will be given as,

⇒ 1 - 2/5 - 1/3

⇒ (15 - 6 - 5) / 15

⇒ 4 / 15

The amount of lawn still needs to be mowed will be 4/15.

Mr. Doyle has left to mow and will be given as,

⇒ (4 / 15) x (2 / 5)

⇒ 8 / 75

Mr. Doyle has left to mow and will be 8/75.

|5 − 3x| > 0   ∴ |5 − 3x| = 5-3x

|−5x − 8 | > 0   ∴ |−5x − 8 | = -5x-8

|1 + 2x| + |5 − 3x| − |−5x − 8 |

Answer:

1) D: All of the above.

2) A: No solution

3) B: One solution

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The systems of linear equations can be solved through the following methods:

Graphing method: Using the slope and y-intercepts of each equation to plot points and graph the lines to see whether the given system has a point of intersection as a solution.

Elimination method: this involves either adding (when the coefficients have opposite signs) or subtracting (when the coefficients have the same sign).  

Substitution method: involves solving for one of the variables of either equations, and substituting the values of that expression into the other linear equation in the system.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option D: All of the above.

2. Graph of Parallel Lines:

Given the graph of parallel lines, which means that they will never have a point of intersection. Therefore, the given systems of linear equations have no solution. Therefore, the correct answer is Option A: No solution.

3. Graph of Two Intersecting lines

Given the graph of two non-perpendicular intersecting lines, it means that they have one point of intersection that represents the solution to the given system.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option B: One solution.
