Ethan Bought 4 Packages Of Pencils. After He Gave 8 Pencils To His Friends, He Had 40 Pencilsleft Over.

Answers

Answer 1

He had 40 pencils left after he gave away 8, so originally he had 40 + 8 pencils, which is 48.

Now, he bought 4 packages, which had a total of 48 pencils, so divide 48 by 4, which is 12. He had 12 pencils in each package.

To determine the solution arithmetically, first add 8 to 40, then divide 48 by 4.

To determine the solution algebraically, set up and solve the equation 40 = 4x - 8.

Each package contained 12 pencils.

Hope this helps

Benny has a basket of 5 red balls, 3 yellow balls, and 2 green balls. He will pick one
ball at random. What is the probability that the next ball he randomly chooses will be
red or green?
Type the answer in the box as a fraction in simplest form.

Answers

Answer:

7/11 green or red balls

Step-by-step explanation:

5 + 3 + 2 = 11 = whole basket

5 + 2 = 7 = red + green

probability = 7 / 11  balls

Hope this helps!

The probability that the next ball he randomly chooses will be red or green is 7/10

Probability

From the question, we are to determine the probability that the next ball Benny randomly chooses will be red or green

From the given information,

Benny has a basket of 5 red balls, 3 yellow balls, and 2 green balls

∴ Total number of possible outcome = 5 + 3 + 2 = 10

Now we will determine the probability of picking red

Using the formula,

[tex]P(A) = \frac{Number\ of\ favourable\ outcome\ to\ A}{Total\ number\ of\ favourable\ outcomes}[/tex]

∴ [tex]P(R) = \frac{5}{10}[/tex]

For the probability of picking green

[tex]P(G) = \frac{2}{10}[/tex]

Then, the probability of red or green is

∴ [tex]P(R \ or \ G) = \frac{5}{10} + \frac{2}{10}[/tex]

[tex]P(R \ or \ G) = \frac{7}{10}[/tex]

Hence, the probability that the next ball he randomly chooses will be red or green is 7/10

The yield in bushels from a grove of orange trees is given by Y = x(600 − x), where x is the number of orange trees per acre. How many trees will maximize the yield?

Answers

Answer:

90000

Step-by-step explanation:

Y = x(600 - x)

Let's rearrange the equation so that we have

Y = x(-x + 600)

Y = -x² + 600

When you take a look at parabolas, we know that their maximum or minimum values are usually on the axis of symmetry. This axis of symmetry has an equation of

x = -b/2a,

In this question, the axis of symmetry is

x = -600 / -2

x = 300

This means that planting 300 trees will maximize your yield. If you substitute for x = 300 into the equation, the maximum yield will be

y = 300 (600 - 300)

y = 90000.

Answer: 300

Step-by-step explanation:

use the formula X=-b/2a

x=-600/-2

x=300

Orbital Toys sells two types of sets of magnetic spheres, silver and brass. The store owner, Lucy Ball, pays $8 and $16 for each one set of silver magnetic spheres and brass magnetic spheres respectively. One set of silver magnetic spheres yields a profit of $3 while a set of brass magnetic spheres yields a profit of $5. Ms. Ball estimates that no more than 2000 sets of magnetic spheres will be sold every month and she does not plan to invest more than $20,000 in inventory of these sets. How many sets of each type of magnetic spheres should be stocked in order to maximize her total monthly profit? What is her maximum monthly profit?​

Answers

Answer:

The maximum profit will be reached by buying 500 brass magnetic spheres and 1500 silver magnetic spheres.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this you need to create a system of equations, with two values that will create the answer we are looking for, the thing that we don't know here is how many of each are we buying so the number of silver magnetic spheres will be represented by "y" and the brass magnetic spheres will be represented by "x".

So we know that x+y=2000

That's our first equation, our second would be the expense, which would be

8x+16y=20,000

We now just solve for one of them

x=(2000-y)

8(2000-y)+16y=20,000

16,000-8y+16y=20,000

8y=4,000

y=500

So we know that the maximum profit will be reached by buying 500 brass magnetic spheres and 1500 silver magnetic spheres.

now bring the Vi over to the other side and flip the sign: at + Vi = Vf

this can be rewritten as Vf = at + Vi

The length of a rectangle is three times the width of the rectangle. The area of the rectangle is 48cm2. Draw the rectangle on the centimetre grid.

Answers

Answer:

The width is 4 cm

The length is 12 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle

Given a rectangle of width W and length L, its area is calculated as follows:

[tex]A=W\cdot L[/tex]

The area of the given rectangle is 48 cm^2, and the length is three times the width, thus:

L = 3W

Substituting into the formula of the area:

[tex]W\cdot L=48[/tex]

[tex]W\cdot 3W=48[/tex]

Simplifying:

[tex]3W^2=48[/tex]

Solving:

[tex]W^2=48/3=16[/tex]

[tex]W=\sqrt{16}=4[/tex]

The width is 4 cm. Find the length:

L=3W=3*4= 12

The length is 12 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical angles are supplementary to the same angle.

  4x +(2y+x) = 180

  (2y-x) +(2y+x) = 180

We can solve the second equation first to find the value of y:

  4y = 180 . . . . simplified

  2y = 90 . . . . .divide by 2

Substituting into the first equation, we have ...

  5x +2y = 180

  5x +90 = 180

  5x = 90

  x = 18  . . .  matches choice B

The invertible 3×3 matrices

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "Option C, Option D, and Option E".

Step-by-step explanation:

In point, A: Its matrix (aA+bB) for A, B matrices of rank 2 is not always of rank 2. for Rank(A+B) is smaller or equivalent to RankA+B.

In point B: The two matrices, A, B, and each entry is equal to or larger than zero. Then, take a = -1 = b, and so all entries (aA+bB) belong to the subset are less than or equal to Zero.hence.

In point C: We get the matrix (aA+bB) for A, B matrices with trace 0. Trace zero.  (aA + bB) trace is  (a×trace(A) + b×trace(B)) thus null.

In point D: For Both A and B, the matrix (aA+bB) is again diagonal for two diagonal matrices.

In point E: For Both A and B matrices, each insertion in second row zero will also have the second-row matrix (aA+bB) as zero.

In point F: In this case, A and B must become two reduced raw echelons, so that A+E is also a reduced raw shape.
