Answers

Answer 1

The factorization of the quadratic expression 25x² - 4 gives us (x + 6)(x - 7) where; x = -6 or 7

How to factorize a quadratic equation?

We are given the quadratic equation as;

x² - x - 42

Now, this quadratic equation can be written as;

x² + 6x - 7x  - 42

We can group this using algebra properties to get;

(x² + 6x) - (7x + 42)

Collecting like terms gives us;

x(x + 6) - 7(x + 6)

Thus, the factorization is;

(x + 6)(x - 7)

Thus, the values of x would be;

x + 6 = 0

x = -6

x - 7 = 0

x = 7

Sammi had a total of 25 ft of ribbon. She cut off 13 ½ feet to keep, the remaining fabric she cut into 3 inch sections to make ribbons. How many ribbons would she be able to make?

Answers

First, find the total length of the remaining fabric by substracting 13 1/2 from 25:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 25-13\frac{1}{2} \\ =25-13-\frac{1}{2} \\ =12-\frac{1}{2} \\ =11\frac{1}{2} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Since one feet equals 12 inches, multiply 11 1/2 by 12 to find the total length of the remaining fabric in inches:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 11\frac{1}{2}\times12=11\times12+\frac{1}{2}\times12 \\ =132+\frac{12}{2} \\ =132+6 \\ =138 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Since each ribbon takes 3 inches, divide 138 over 3 to find the total amount of ribbons that can be made:

[tex]\frac{138}{3}=46[/tex]

Therefore, Sammi is able to make 46 ribbons.

A four sided residential lot that measures 112.7 ft, 85.3 ft, 110.8 ft, and 98.5 ft is to be fenced. How many feet of fencing are required?

Answers

307.3 feet is the perimeter of fencing that is required to fence a four sided residential lot that measures 112.7 ft, 85.3 ft, 110.8 ft, and 98.5 ft.

What is perimeter?

The distance around a shape or space is measured by its perimeter. The length of a shape's outline is what it is, simply put.

Children may have an easier time understanding this new term if they are given an analogy like walking completely around a shape or erecting a fence around a field.

When determining the size of a space, such as a garden or a room in your home, the perimeter is frequently used. The distance around your living room or garden, for instance, would be necessary if you wanted a new carpet or garden fence.

We need to simply find the perimeter of the polygon lot to find measure of fencing required.

Perimeter = sum of sides

                = 12.7 + 85.3 + 110.8 + 98.5

                = 307.3 ft

Thus, 307.3 feet of fencing are required to fence  a  four sided residential lot that measures 112.7 ft, 85.3 ft, 110.8 ft, and 98.5 ft.

(a) What was the total amount they ended up paying for the condominium

We need to calculate the total monthly payments, plus the down payment.

If a tank has 10 shrimp in it, how much food is added to the tank each day? 7. If the aquarium manager has 300 grams of shrimp food for this tank of 10 shrimp, how many days will it last? Explain or show your reasoning.

Answers

3) 0.6 grams per day

4) 1.67 grams per day

5) f = kd

k = f/d

Explanation:

3) y = kx

where k = constant of proportionality

from the table, let x = number of days

y = food in grams

when x = 1, y = 0.6

we find k:

0.6 = k(1)

0.6 = k

Hence, the constant of proportionality is 0.6

It means the rate at which the shrimp is fed is 0.6grams per day

4) if columns are switched, the number of days = y

food in grams = x

let's use the same values but it will be interchanged:

when x = 0.6, y = 1

y = kx

1 = k(0.6)

1 = 0.6k

k = 1/0.6

k = 1.67 or 5/3

The rate at which the shrimp is fed is 1.67 grams per day

Here the rate is higher than the previous result. This is because the y value is greater then the x value.

5) if f = amount of food in grams

d = number of days

Since the relationship between the amount of food and number of days is proportional (it has beeen established previously), we would use the proportional equation:

y = f = amount of food in grams

x = d = number of days

f = kd (one equation)

it can also be written as:

f = kd

k = f/d (2nd equation)

it is presentation day in class and your instructor is drawing names from a hat to determine the order of the presentations. If there are 19 students in the class, what is the probability that the first 3 presentations will be by Mika, Todd and Kelly? Express your answer as a fraction.

Answers

The probability of an event is the number of outcomes in which the event happens divided by the number of total outcomes.

The outcome we want is that the first 3 will be Mika, Todd and Kelly, in this order.

For this, we can thing in picks:

The first pick we can only pick Mika, so there is 1 possibilitie1:

[tex]1[/tex]

For the second pick, we can pick only Todd, so 1 possibility:

[tex]1\times1[/tex]

And for the third there is only Kelly, so 1 possibility:

[tex]1\times1\times1[/tex]

For the following pick, we can pick any of the 16 students left, so 16 possibilities:

[tex]1\times1\times1\times16[/tex]

And for the next we have one less, so 15 and so on until we picked everyone:

[tex]1\times1\times1\times16\times15\times14\times13\times12\times11\times10\times9\times8\times7\times6\times5\times4\times3\times2\times1[/tex]

We don't need to multiply all of this, because some of them will cancel afterwards.

Let's go the all possible outcomes. In this case, the first pick can be any of the 19 students:

[tex]19[/tex]

And the next we have one less, and so on:

[tex]19\times18\times17\times16\times15\times14\times13\times12\times11\times10\times9\times8\times7\times6\times5\times4\times3\times2\times1[/tex]

The probability will be the number of outcomes of the event we want over the number of total outcomes, so:

[tex]P=\frac{1\times1\times1\times16\times15\times14\times13\times12\times11\times10\times9\times8\times7\times6\times5\times4\times3\times2\times1}{19\times18\times17\times16\times15\times14\times13\times12\times11\times10\times9\times8\times7\times6\times5\times4\times3\times2\times1}[/tex]

Notice that all from 16 down will cancel out, so:

[tex]P=\frac{1\times1\times1}{19\times18\times17}=\frac{1}{5814}[/tex]

So, the probability is 1/5814.
