Answers

Answer 1

So, the number of students in Band, Art, Music and Journalism are 2n, 7n+6, 4n-2 and 2(4n+6) respectively.

Since the number of students enrolled in Art and Music is equal to the number of students enrolled in Band and Journalism, we have the equation

7n + 6 + (4n-2) = 2n + 2(4n+6).

We now expand the brackets :
7n + 6 + 4n - 2 = 2n + 8n + 12
-> 11n + 4 = 10n + 12
-> 11n + 4 - 10n - 12 = 0
-> n - 8 = 0
-> n = 8.

Therefore, the number of students that enrolled in :
Band : 2n = 16 students.
Art : 7n + 6 = 62 students.
Music : 4n - 2 = 30 students.
Journalism : 8n + 12 = 76 students.

76 = 16 = 62 + 30 = 92, satisfying the requirement.

[tex]\frac{11}{2} ,-\frac{13}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know That l [tex]x[/tex] l = x when x > 0 and l x l = - x when x <0

for the given equation - 5|3 + 4k| = - 115

when 3 + 4k > 0 the equation becomes

-5(3+4k) = - 115

→ -5 · 3 - 5 · 4k = - 115

→- 20k = - 115 + 15 = - 110

→ k = -[tex]\frac{110}{-20}[/tex]  = [tex]\frac{11}{2}[/tex]

Again when 3 + 4k <0 the equation becomes

-5(-(3+ 4k )) = - 115

→15 + 20k = - 115

→ 20k = - 115 - 15

→ 20k = - 130

⇒ k = -[tex]\frac{130}{20}[/tex] = -[tex]\frac{13}{2}[/tex]

find the weighted mean for three exams if the first one was worth 75 points and the student received a score of 70%, the second was worth 50 points and the student received a score of 80% and the third was worth 30 points and the student received a score of 95%?

Answers

The weighted mean for three exams is 78.1%.

Define weighted mean.

The weighted mean is a form of mean that is computed by averaging all the products after multiplying the weight (or probability) connected to a specific event or result by its connected quantitative outcome. The difference between the weighted arithmetic mean and a regular arithmetic mean is that certain data points contribute more to the final average than others, as opposed to all data points contributing equally. In mathematics, the average value of the data is determined using the weighted mean. When calculating the weighted mean, the average value can be determined by giving various weights to some of the individual variables.

Given,

x - 5 is a factor of the polynomial

(The answer must include what the remainder value is and what it indicates.)

Answers

(x - 5) is a factor of the polynomial function f(x) = x³ - x² - 17x -15 as there is no remaider.

What is a factor of a polynomial?

We know that if x = a is one of the roots of a given polynomial x - a = 0 is a factor of the given polynomial.

To confirm if x - a = 0 is a factor of a polynomial we replace f(x) with f(a) and if the remainder is zero then it is confirmed that x - a = 0 is a factor.

Given a polynomial function f(x) = x³ - x² - 17x -15.

If (x - 5) is it's factor then f(5) = 0.

∴ f(x) = x³ - x² - 17x -15.

f(5) = 5³ - 5² - 17(5) - 15.

f(5) = 125 - 25 - 85 - 15.

f(5) = 0.

So, the remainder is zero hence (x - 5) is a factor of the polynomial function f(x) = x³ - x² - 17x -15.

Answers

Using ratio, the total number of peanut butter on the shelf is 144.

What is the ratio?An ordered pair of numbers a and b, written as a / b, is a ratio if b is not equal to 0. A proportion is an equation that sets two ratios at the same value. For instance, you could write the ratio as follows: 1: 3 if there is 1 boy and 3 girls (for every one boy there are 3 girls)A ratio in mathematics demonstrates how many times one number is present in another. For instance, if a bowl of fruit contains eight oranges and six lemons, the ratio of oranges to lemons is eight to six. The ratio of oranges to the total amount of fruit is 8:14, and the ratio of lemons to oranges is 6:8.

So, the ratio of creamy to crunchy peanut butter:

5:3

If there are 18 jars of crunchy peanut butter, the total number of peanut butter will be:

5(18):3(18)90:54

849

491

all digits are wrong.

one digit is right but in the wrong place?

Answers

Answer:

153

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! Unsure if this is a proper question but I can sure try!

Let's start with the logic of it:

793:

To start with this one, one digit is right and is in the right place. From this step, we can't really infer anything.

725:

One digit is right but in the wrong place. Now we can do something here. There is another digit here that's correct but in the wrong place. We can eliminate 7 entirely from both 725 and 793 as they are in the same position and cannot be in the right and wrong place at the same time.

317:

Two digits are right but in the wrong places. Since we eliminated 7, the two right digits are 3 and 1, just in the wrong spots. At this point, we still need to figure out one more digit so we can't infer their positions just yet.

849:

All digits are wrong. This only affects 793, which removes 9. From here on out, 3 is the correct digit in the right place.

491:

One digit right but in the wrong place. From here, the rule from 849 applies here, meaning we can rule out 9 and 4, leaving us with 1.

From here, it gets a bit tricky. Since 3 is in the correct place. From 725, we have already ruled 7 out, leaving us with 2 and 5. But since we already know 3 is in the last place, it means 5 must be moved to the middle digit in order for 725's statement to be true. Meaning 2 is ruled out.

Finally, the only digit we are left with is 1 as for the rule of 317 and 491.

Making the answer 153.

Let me know if that is correct or wrong and do help me understand if it was wrong!
