h(x) + j(2) =
Is h(x) + j(x) equivalent to k(x)? yes
Answer:
YES, they are equal
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expressions
h(x) = 2x – 3;j(x) = - 4x + 6; k(x) = – 2x + 3
h(x) + j(x) = 2x – 3 + (-4x + 6)
h(x) + j(x) = 2x - 3 -4x + 6
h(x) + j(x) = 2x - 4x -3 + 6
h(x) + j(x) = -2x + 3 = k(x)
This shows that h(x) + j(x) = k(x)
Peter is 8 years younger than Alex. In 9 years time, the sum of their ages will be 76 . How old is Alex now?
Answer:
Peter is a-8 in 9 years, (a-8)+ 9+ a+ 9= 76
Answer:
P = 25
A = 33
Step-by-step explanation:
P + 8 = A
P + 9 + A + 9 = 76
P + A = 58
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
P = 58 - A
P = 58 - P - 8
2 P = 50
P = 25
A = 33
Why is the number of operators per shift multiplied by approximately 4.5 to obtain the total number of operators required to run the plant
I believe you meant "why is the number of shifts multiplied by approximately 4.5 to obtain the total number of operators required to run the plant"
Answer and Explanation:
There are 3 shifts per day, 49 weeks per year and 5 shifts per operator per week
To get total number of operators required to run the plant, we multiply number of shifts in a year by number if operators per shift.
49 weeks×5 shifts= 245 shifts per operator per year
365×3 shifts= 1095 shifts per year
1095/245=4.5 operators per shift
total number of operators required to run the plant(per day) = 4.5×3= 13.5 approximately 14
total number of operators required to run the plant(per year) =4.5×1095=4927.5 approximately 4928

When sales of a particular hybrid automobile reach 60,000 units, federal income tax credits begin to phase out. One year after reaching this threshold, buyers are still eligible for 25% of the original $3000 credit. What tax credit would buyers receive if they purchased the vehicle at this time.
Answer:
$750
Step-by-step explanation:
so, in short, we need to calculate 25% of $3000.
that is the amount of tax credit a buyer would get then.
direct and fast answer :
25% means 1/4 of the overall amount.
$3000 / 4 = $750
now, a little bit longer to explain % calculations in general.
let's say, we are talking 27%. now we have a problem to find a fast fraction as factor.
it always starts with the identification of 100%.
what is the full starting amount we are dealing with ? that is the 100%.
in our case $3000.
now, as a base for the calculation we determine 1%, which is 1/100 of 100%, of course.
1% = $3000 / 100 = $30
to get said 27% we have to multiply this by 27
27% = 1% × 27 = $30 × 27 = $810
or in general
x% = 100% × x / 100
that also works for more complex questions. e.g. calculate 1.5%
1.5% = $3000 × 1.5 / 100 = $30 × 1.5 = $45
and that is all there is to % calculations. all the questions are just some variations, where your are missing one of the 3 "ingredients" : 100% amount, x% amount and x itself.
and you need to transform the general equation above to get the missing piece of of the given information.

Answer:
Hello good evening friend
You and a friend were invited to a
party. You both were asked to bring
pizzas and chips. Your friend brought
three pizzas and four bags of chips
and spent $48.05. You brought five
pizzas and two bags of chips and
spent $67.25. What is the cost of
each? Answer should be in (Pizza, Chips)
Answer:
Pizza = 12.35
Chips = 2.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Let :
Pizza = x
chips = y
3x + 4y = 48.05 - - - (1)
5x + 2y = 67.25 - - - (2)
Multiply (1) by 5 and (2) by 3
15x + 20y = 240.25
15x + 6y = 201.75
Subtract :
20y - 6y = 240.25 - 201.75
14y = 38.50
y = 38.50/ 14
y = 2.75
Put y = 2.75 in (1)
3x + 4(2.75) = 48.05
3x + 11 = 48.05
3x = 48.05 - 11
3x = 37.05
x = 37.05 / 3
x = 12.35
Pizza = 12.35
Chips = 2.75

A box contains 10 balls, of which 3 are red, 2 are yellow, and 5 are blue. Five balls are randomly selected with replacement. Calculate the probability that fewer than 2 of the selected balls are red.
Answer:
The required probability is 0.1.
Step-by-step explanation:
red balls = 3
yellow balls = 2
blue balls = 5
Selected balls = 5
Number of elemnets in sample space = 10 C 5 = 1260
Ways to choose 1 red ball and 4 other colours = (3 C 1 ) x (7 C 4) = 105
Ways to choose 5 balls of other colours = 7 C 5 = 21
So, the probability is
[tex]\frac{105}{1260} + \frac {21}{1260}\\\\\frac{126}{1260}=0.1[/tex]

Answer:
perimeter: 121 marea: 399 m²Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths. Here, the bottom side is broken into two parts, so that side length is the sum of the parts. The area is given by the formula for the area of a triangle.
perimeter = 24 m +40 m + 37 m + 20 m = 121 m
area = 1/2bh = 1/2(20 m +37 m)(14 m) = 399 m²
A strawberry farmer in Poteet knows that 1/8 of his strawberries are typically not fit to sell at the market (either because they went bad or are too unusually shaped). The farmer takes a random sample of 156 strawberries to inspect for the upcoming farmer's market and finds that 24 are unfit to sell. If he were to go back and pick 1000 more strawberries to inspect for the market, how would the standard deviation of the sample proportion be affected
Answer:
It would be smaller.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
The number of the strawberries that are unfit for sell, x = 24
The total number of the strawberries to inspect, n = 156
Total number of the strawberries to be picked = 1000 strawberries
Therefore,
[tex]$\widehat p =\frac{x}{n}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{24}{156}$[/tex]
= 0.1538
[tex]$\widehat p =\frac{x}{n}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{24}{1000}$[/tex]
= 0.024
Therefore, the standard deviation of the sample proportion would be smaller.
Which of the following shows the graph of y=-(2)^3 – 1?
Answer:
The first graph
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]y = -(2)^x - 1[/tex]
Required
The graph
Set the exponent part to get the minimum/maximum of the graph
So, we have:
[tex]y = 0 - 1[/tex]
[tex]y = - 1[/tex]
The above implies that the curve passes through the y-axis at [tex]y = - 1[/tex].
By comparing the two graphs, we can conclude that the first represents [tex]y = -(2)^x - 1[/tex] because it passes through [tex]y = - 1[/tex]
One urn contains 6 blue balls and 14 white balls, and a second urn contains 12 blue balls and 7 white balls. An urn is selected at random, and a ball is chosen from the urn. a. What is the probability that the chosen ball is blue? b. If the chosen ball is blue, what is the probability that it came from the first urn?
Answer:
a) 0.4658 = 46.58% probability that the chosen ball is blue
b) 0.322 = 32.2% probability that it came from the first urn
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
Conditional Probability
We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
In which
P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.
P(A) is the probability of A happening.
a. What is the probability that the chosen ball is blue?
6/20 = 0.3 of 0.5(first urn)
12/19 = 0.6316 out of 0.5(second urn).
So
[tex]P(A) = 0.3*0.5 + 0.6316*0.5 = 0.4658[/tex]
0.4658 = 46.58% probability that the chosen ball is blue.
b. If the chosen ball is blue, what is the probability that it came from the first urn?
Event A: Blue Ball
Event B: From first urn
From item a., [tex]P(A) = 0.4658[/tex]
Probability of blue ball from first urn:
0.3 of 0.5. So
[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.3*0.5 = 0.15[/tex]
Probability:
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.15}{0.4658} = 0.322[/tex]
0.322 = 32.2% probability that it came from the first urn

Finally you add together those 2 volumes and get 582.8848178 cm cubed as your final answer.
The triangles are similar by:
the ASA similarity theorem.
the SSS similarity theorem.
the AAS similarity theorem.
the AA similarity postulate.
the SAS similarity theorem.
Answer:
E. by the SAS similarity theorem.
Step-by-step explanation:
Included angle x° in ∆ ABC ≅ included angle x° in ∆EDC (vertical angles are equal)
DC/BC = 240/150 = 1.6
EC/AC = 320/200 = 1.6
This implies that the ratio of two corresponding sides of both triangles are the same.
Two triangles are considered similar to each other by the SAS similarity theorem of they have a corresponding included angle that is equal and two corresponding sides that are congruent to each other. Therefore, both triangles are similar by the SAS similarity theorem.
