The elves and reindeer are getting ready for a meeting with Santa.
So far 14 of them have arrived.
If they have 38 legs between them, how many reindeer are at the meeting and how many elves are at the meeting?

Answers

Answer 1

Let [tex]e[/tex] and [tex]r[/tex] be the number of elves and reindeers, respectively.

We know that:

[tex]r+e=14[/tex] (so far 14 of them have arrived)

[tex]4r+2e = 38[/tex](each reindeer has 4 legs and each elf has two)

If we multiply the first equation by 2 we have [tex]2r+2e=28[/tex], and if we subtract this equation from the second we have [tex]2r=10[/tex] which implies [tex]r=5[/tex].

So, there are 5 reindeers and 9 elves (remember that they have to sum up to 14).

Answer 2

The number of reindeers is 5 and the number of elves is 9.

Two equations can be derived from the equation:

e + r = 14 equation 1

2e + 4r = 38 equation 2

Where:

e = number of elves at the meeting

r = number of reindeers at the meeting

In order to determine the value of r, multiply equation 1 by 2.

2e + 2r = 28 equation 3

Subtract equation 3 from 2

2r = 10

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

r = 5

To solve for e substitute for r in equation 1

5 + e = 14

e = 14 - 5

e = 9

Answers

Answer:

3.89 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we have this in a table using the range

There are 6 ranges

We put the frequency alongside

Afterwards we calculate the midpoint of the range

For example, midpoint of range 1-4 is (1+4)/2 = 5/2 = 2.5

We multiply the midpoint by the frequency which gives another column

Then we calculate the mean, where the mean is the summation of all frequencies and their midpoints

We subtract each midpoint from the mean, square the results, then multiply each by their frequency

Lastly, we apply the standard deviation formula

9. Jack has $5.90 in spare change in his pocket. All of the coins are nickels and quarters. If
he has 50 coins total, how many of each coin does he have? (Use a system of equations
to solve algebraically. Identify your variables.)

Answers

Answer:

33 nickels, 17 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

q=quarters, n=nickels

Since total number of coins = 50 and he only has quarters and nickels,

q + n = 50.

Since a quarter is 0.25 dollars, a nickel is 0.05 dollars, and his total is $5.90,

0.25q + 0.05n = 5.90

Multiply the entire second equation by -4 to get -q and eliminate q from both equations: -4(0.25q + 0.05n = 5.90)

So, q + n = 50

And -q -0.2n = -23.6

Cancel q's and add down to combine both equations, so 0.8n = 26.4

Solve for n by dividing 0.8 by both sides, so n = 33

Plug n back into the first equation: q + 33 = 50 and q is thus 17.

-What is the value of Co

-What is the value of Cu

Answer:

- the value of the cost overage Co is  $ 0.3

- the value of the cost shortage Cu is  $ 0.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

Revenue per unit R                         =       $ 1.00

Cost per Unit C                               =       $ 0.60

Salvage value per unit  S                =       $ 0.30

Mean Demand μ                              =          193

Standard Deviation of demand  σ  =          41

-To get the value of our cost overage Co;

we simply say

Co = Cost per Unit C - Salvage value per unit  S  

Co = 0.6 - 0.30 = 0.30

therefore the value of the cost overage Co is  $ 0.30

- To find the value of Cost Shortage Cu;

Cu = Revenue per unit R - Cost per Unit C

Cu = 1.00 - 0.60 = 0.40

therefore the value of the cost shortage Cu is  $ 0.40

In a recent News, it was reported that light trucks, which include SUV’s , pick-up trucks and minivans, accounted for 40% of all personal vehicles on the road in 2012. Assume the rest are cars. Of every 100,000 cars accidents, 20 involve a fatality; of every 100,000 light trucks accidents, 25 involve a fatality. If a fatal accident is chosen at random, what is the probability the accident involved a light truck?​

Answers

Answer:

45.45%

Step-by-step explanation:

Light tracks = 40% = 0.4Cars = 60% = 0.6

Fatal accidents involving light tracks:

25/100000 = 0.00025

Fatal accidents involving cars:

20/100000 = 0.0002

Probability of a fatal accident involving a light track:

p = involving light tracks /involving both cars and light tracksp = 0.4*0.00025/(0.4*0.00025 + 0.6*0.0002) = 0.4545 p = 45.45%

Step-by-step explanation:

It's an isosceles triangle because the two given angles are equal. So, hypothetically, if you flipped the triangle to have side EG on the ground, then given the rules of isosceles triangles, side EF is equal to side GF.

To find the angle of F just add the given angles and substract from 180

Water is leaking out of an inverted conical tank at a rate of 10700 cubic centimeters per min at the same time that water is being pumped into the tank at a constant rate. The tank has height 8 meters and the diameter at the top is 3 meters. If the water level is rising at a rate of 26 centimeters per minute when the height of the water is 2.5 meters, find the rate at which water is being pumped into the tank in cubic centimeters per minute.

Answers

Solution :

The diameter of the tank = 3 m = 300 cm

Radius of the tank = 1.5 m = 150 cm

Height of the tank = 8 m = 800 cm

The rate of increase of height of water level = 26 cm/min

∴ [tex]$\frac{dh}{dt} = 20 \ cm/min$[/tex]

The water is leaking at a rate of  =  10700 cubic centimeters per min

∴ rate out = 10,700 [tex]$cm^3 / cm $[/tex]

At time 't', the height of water level is 'h' with radius 'r' and volume 'V'.

By the property of similarity of triangles we can write

[tex]$\frac{h}{r} = \frac{800}{150} $[/tex]

[tex]$\frac{h}{r} = \frac{16}{3} $[/tex]

[tex]$r = \frac{3}{16}h$[/tex]

Volume of water at time 't' is given as

[tex]$V= \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h $[/tex]

[tex]$V= \frac{1}{3} \pi \left(\frac{3}{16}h\right)^2 h $[/tex]

[tex]$V =\frac{3}{256} \pi h^3$[/tex]

Now differentiating w.r.t 't'

[tex]$\frac{dv}{dt} = \frac{9}{256} \pi h^2 \frac{dh}{dt}$[/tex]

The rate of increase in tank =  rate of inward flow - rate of outward flow

[tex]$\frac{dv}{dt} $[/tex]  = rate of inward flow  - 10,700

rate of inflow = 10,700 + [tex]$ \frac{9}{256} \pi h^2 \frac{dh}{dt}$[/tex]

Substituting the values we get

rate of inflow = 10,700 + [tex]$ \frac{9}{256} \times 3.14 \times (250)^2 \times 26$[/tex]

∴ rate of inward flow = [tex]$1.9 \times 10^5 \ cm^3/min$[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Determining the length of BC

From the diagram, it is clear that

The point B is located at (-8, 10) and point C is located at (8, 10)

Since points A and C are located on a horizontal straight line. Thus, the length of BC can be determined by counting the x-axis units from reaching x = -8 to x = 8. i.e. 8-(-8) = 8+8 = 16

Thus, the length of BC = 16 units

Determining the length of CD

Given

C (8, 10) D (2, -2)

The distance between C(8, 10) and D(2, -2)

[tex]\mathrm{Compute\:the\:distance\:between\:}\left(x_1,\:y_1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right):\quad \sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}[/tex]

[tex]CD=\sqrt{\left(2-8\right)^2+\left(-2-10\right)^2}[/tex]

      [tex]=\sqrt{6^2+12^2}[/tex]

      [tex]=\sqrt{36+144}[/tex]

      [tex]=\sqrt{180}[/tex]

      [tex]=\sqrt{36\times 5}[/tex]

      [tex]=6\sqrt{5}[/tex]

Thus, the length of CD [tex]=6\sqrt{5}[/tex] units

Determining the length of ED

Given

E (-8, -4) D (2, -2)

The distance between E(-8, -4) and D(2, -2)

[tex]ED=\sqrt{\left(2-\left(-8\right)\right)^2+\left(-2-\left(-4\right)\right)^2}[/tex]

      [tex]=\sqrt{10^2+2^2}[/tex]

      [tex]=\sqrt{100+4}[/tex]

      [tex]=\sqrt{104}[/tex]

       [tex]=\sqrt{26\times \:4}[/tex]

        [tex]=2\sqrt{26}[/tex]

Thus, the length of ED [tex]=2\sqrt{26}[/tex] units

Determining the length of EB

From the diagram, it is clear that

The point E is located at (-8, -4) and the point B is located at (-8, 10)

Since points E and B are located on a vertical straight line. Thus, the length of EB can be determined by counting the y-axis units from reaching y = -4 to y = 10. i.e. 10-(-4) = 10+4 = 14

Thus, the length of EB = 14 units

What is the solution to the following system x+y+z=6 and x-y+z=8 and x+y-z=0

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{x = 4, ~y = -1,~ and~z = 3}[/tex]

.

Step-by-step explanation:

(eq-1) → x + y + z = 6

(eq-2) → x - y + z = 8

(eq-3) → x + y - z = 0

.

Eliminate eq-1 and eq-3

[tex]x + y + z = 6[/tex]

x + y - z = 0    

[tex]2z = 6[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{6}{2}[/tex]

[tex]z = 3[/tex]

.

Eliminate eq-1 and qe-2

[tex]x + y + z = 6[/tex]

x - y + z = 8    

[tex]2y = -2[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{-2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y = -1[/tex]

.

Substitute the value of z and y to on of equations

[tex]x + y + z = 6[/tex]

[tex]x + (-1) + 3 = 6[/tex]

[tex]x + 2 = 6[/tex]

[tex]x = 6 - 2[/tex]

[tex]x = 4[/tex]

Answer:

The solution for the following system is: [tex]\mathbf{x=4, y=-1, z=3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the solution to the following system.

[tex]x+y+z=6 \ and \ x-y+z=8 \ and \ x+y-z=0[/tex]

Let:

[tex]x+y+z=6 --eq(1)\\ x-y+z=8 --eq(2)\\ x+y-z=0--eq(3)[/tex]

Adding eq(1) and eq(2)

[tex]x+y+z=6 \\x-y+z=8 \\-------\\2x+2z=14 --eq(4)[/tex]

Adding eq(2) and eq(3)

[tex]x-y+z=8 \\ x+y-z=0\\-------\\2x=8\\x=8/2\\x=4[/tex]

We get value of x=4

Now, putting value of x in eq(4) to find value of z

[tex]2x+2z=14\\Put x=4\\2(4)+2z=14\\8+2z=14\\2z=14-8\\2z=6\\z=6/2\\z=3[/tex]

We get value of z=3

Now, putting value of x and z in eq(1) to find value of y

[tex]x+y+z=6\\Put \ x=4, z=3\\4+y+3=6\\y+7=6\\y=6-7\\y=-1[/tex]

So, value of y=-1

The solution for the following system is: [tex]\mathbf{x=4, y=-1, z=3}[/tex]
