Solve the equation: -7/10 = 3a/4 - 13/20?

Help pleaseeee! Thanks

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Solving the equation [tex]-\frac{7}{10}=\frac{3a}{4}-\frac{13}{20}[/tex] we get: [tex]\mathbf{a=-\frac{1}{15} }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the equation:

[tex]-\frac{7}{10}=\frac{3a}{4}-\frac{13}{20}[/tex]

And find the value of a

Solving the equation: [tex]-\frac{7}{10}=\frac{3a}{4}-\frac{13}{20}[/tex]

First we will be Switching sides

[tex]\frac{3a}{4}-\frac{13}{20}=-\frac{7}{10}[/tex]

Now, for finding value of a we will be adding 13/20 on both sides

[tex]\frac{3a}{4}-\frac{13}{20}+\frac{13}{20}=-\frac{7}{10}+\frac{13}{20}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3a}{4}=-\frac{7}{10}+\frac{13}{20}[/tex]

Now, on right hand side, Taking LCM of denominators i.e 10 and 20, we get 20 and simplifying:

[tex]\frac{3a}{4}=\frac{-7*2+13}{20}\\\frac{3a}{4}=\frac{-14+13}{20}\\\frac{3a}{4}=\frac{-1}{20}[/tex]

Now, multiply both sides by 4/3

[tex]\frac{3a}{4}\times \frac{4}{3} =\frac{-1}{20}\times \frac{4}{3}\\a=\frac{-1}{5}\times \frac{1}{3}\\a= \frac{-1}{15}[/tex]

So, solving the equation [tex]-\frac{7}{10}=\frac{3a}{4}-\frac{13}{20}[/tex] we get: [tex]\mathbf{a=-\frac{1}{15} }[/tex]

The degree measure of one of two complementary angles is twice that of the other. What is one of the degree measures of the angles?
A.) 30 degrees
B.)40 degrees
C.)45 degrees
D.)27 degree

Answers

Answer:

30°  is one of the degree measures of the angles.

Hence, option (A) is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the degree measure of the first angle.

Given that the degree measure of one of two complementary angles is twice that of the other.

Thus, the other angle = 2x

Complementary angles

We know that two angles are termed as complementary angles when the sum of their measured angles is 90°.

Thus the equation becomes

x + 2x = 90°

3x =  90°

Divide both equations by 3

3x/3 = 90°/3

x = 30°

Therefore, 30°  is one of the degree measures of the angles.

Hence, option (A) is true.

Question :

The degree measure of one of two complementary angles is twice that of the other. What is one of the degree measures of the angles?

Answer :

A.) 30 degrees

Solution :

Let one angle = x

According to statement,

Another angle = 2 × first angle

[tex] \sf : \implies Another \: angle = 2x[/tex]

Now, we know that sum of complementary angles is 90°

Hence,

[tex] \sf : \implies x + 2x = 90^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex] \sf : \implies 3x = 90^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex] \sf : \implies x = \dfrac{\cancel{90}^{\circ}}{\cancel{3}}[/tex]

[tex] \sf : \implies x = 30^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex] \Large \underline{\boxed{\sf{ x = 30^{\circ} }}}[/tex]

Therefore, one of the angle is 30°.

Another angle = 2 × 30° = 60°

Answers

Answer: 0.16666666666

which is the correct answer?​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 3 is incorrect, it should be x - 4 + x = x(x - 3).

x - 4 + x = x(x - 3)

2x - 4 = x² - 3x

x² - 5x + 4 = 0

(x - 4)(x - 1) = 0

x = 4 or x = 1.

x = 4 is rejected as 1 / (x - 4) will become 1 / 0 which is undefined.

=> x = 1.

To collect data on the signal strengths in a neighborhood, Briana must drive from house to house and take readings. She has a graduate student, Henry, to assist her. Briana figures it would take her 12 hours to complete the task working alone, and that it would take Henry 18 hours if he completed the task by himself. How long will it take Briana and Henry to complete the task together?

Answers

Answer:

Both take time together = 36 / 5 hours = 7.2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Briana take time = 12 hour

Henry take time = 18 hour

Find:

Both take time together

Computation:

Briana 1 hour work = 1/12

Henry 1 hour work = 1/18

Both take time together = 1/[1/12+1/18]

Both take time together = 1/[5/36]

Both take time together = 36 / 5 hours = 7.2 hours

a company pays its employees and average hourly wage of 36.25 with a standard deviation of 6.50 more than 23.22 of 36 employees are randomly selected, what is the probability that their mean wage is more than 23.22

Answers

Answer:

P [ X > 23,22 ]  = 0,8798      or  P [ X > 23,22 ]  =  87,98 %

Step-by-step explanation:

P [ X > 23,22 ]  =  1  -  P [X ≤ 23,22 ]

P [X ≤ 23,22 ] =  ( X - μ₀ ) / σ /√n

P [X ≤ 23,22 ] = ( 23,22 - 36,25 )/ 6,50/√36

P [X ≤ 23,22 ] =  - 13,03 *6 / 6,50

P [X ≤ 23,22 ] = - 12,02        or       P [X ≤ 23,22 ] = 12,02 %

(note the - sign only mean that values on the left tail of the bell shape curve)

Then

P [ X > 23,22 ]  =  1  -  0,1202

P [ X > 23,22 ]  = 0,8798      or  P [ X > 23,22 ]  =  87,98 %

Part C:

1) She will have $8081.130039 in 10 years

2) He will have $13360.55059 in 8 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the compound interest is A = P [tex](1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex], where

A is the new valueP is the initial amountr is the rate in decimaln is the number of the periodt is the time in years

Part B:

5)

P = $4250

r = 1.5% = 1.5 ÷ 100 = 0.015

n = 4 ⇒ Compounded quartly

t = 3 years

→ Substitute them in the formula above

∴ A = 4250 [tex](1+\frac{0.015}{4})^{4(3)}[/tex]

∴ A = 4250 [tex](1.00375)^{12}[/tex]

∴ A = 4445.244256

She will have $4445.244256 in 3 years

Part C:

1)

∵ Grace deposits $6000

P = 6000

∵ The account is compounded semi-annually at 3%

r = 3% = 3 ÷ 100 = 0.03

n = 2 ⇒ compounded semi-annually

∵ The time is 10 years

t = 10

→ Substitute them in the formula above

∴ A = 6000 [tex](1+\frac{0.03}{2})^{2(10)}[/tex]

∴ A = 6000 [tex](1.015)^{20}[/tex]

∴ A = 8081.130039

She will have $8081.130039 in 10 years

2)

∵ Danial opens an account that is compounded semi-annually at 5%

r = 5% = 5 ÷ 100 = 0.05

n = 2 ⇒ compounded semi-annually

∵ He deposits $9000

P = 9000

∵ The time is 8 years

t = 8

→ Substitute them in the formula above

∴ A = 9000 [tex](1+\frac{0.05}{2})^{2(8)}[/tex]

∴ A = 9000 [tex](1.025)^{16}[/tex]

∴ A = 13360.55059

He will have $13360.55059 in 8 years

In a sample of 41 temperature readings taken from the freezer of a restaurant, the mean is 29.7 degrees and the population standard deviation is 2.7 degrees. What would be the 80% confidence interval for the temperatures in the freezer?

Answers

Answer: [tex]=(29.1596\text{ degrees},\ 30.2404\text{ degrees})[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Sample size: n = 41

Sample mean [tex]\overline{x}= 29.7[/tex] degrees

Population standard deviation [tex]\sigma=2.7[/tex] degrees

Confidence level (c) =  80% =0.80

Significance level (a) = 1- c = 1-0.80 = 0.20

z-score for 80% confidence level : z = 1.2816   [from z-table]

Confidence level for population mean :-

[tex]\overline{x}\pm z\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]=29.7\pm ( 1.2816)\dfrac{2.7}{\sqrt{41}}[/tex]

[tex]=29.7\pm ( 1.2816)\dfrac{2.7}{6.403124}[/tex]

[tex]=29.7\pm ( 1.2816)(0.42167)[/tex]

[tex]=29.7\pm 0.5404[/tex]

[tex]=(29.7-0.5404,\ 29.7+0.5404)[/tex]

[tex]=(29.1596,\ 30.2404)[/tex]

Hence, 80% confidence interval for the temperatures in the freezer [tex]=(29.1596\text{ degrees},\ 30.2404\text{ degrees})[/tex]
