The number a is about 8 times greater than b.
Find the correct value of a and b.
A. a = 3.1 and b = 2.5
B. a = 2.5 and b = 3.1
C. a = 2 and b = 1.2
D. a = 1.2 and b = 2

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:  None of the answers are viable.

Step-by-step explanation:

a ≅ 8b

a/b ≅ 8

A.  (3.1/2.5) = only slightly greater than 1

B.  2.5/3.1    = slightly less than 1

C.  (2/1.2) = less than 2

D.  1.2/2 = less than 1

None of these answers is viable.

Answer 2

None of the options are correct.

Given,

The number a is about 8 times greater than b.

We need to find the correct value of a and b from the given options.

A. a = 3.1 and b = 2.5

B. a = 2.5 and b = 3.1

C. a = 2 and b = 1.2

D. a = 1.2 and b = 2

What do the mathematical terms mean?

We have,

2 times M = 2x M

2 greater than M = M + 2

2 less than M =  M - 2

Sum = adding

Times = Multiplication

Find the value of a and b.

We have,

The number a is about 8 times greater than b.

We can write it as

a = 8 x b

Find out which option is correct.

A. a = 3.1 and b = 2.5

a = 8 x b

3.1 = 8 x 2.5

3.1 ≠ 20

So this option is incorrect.

B. a = 2.5 and b = 3.1

2.5 = 8 x 3.1

2.5 ≠ 24.8

This option is not correct.

C. a = 2 and b = 1.2

2 = 8 x 1.2

2 ≠ 9.6

This option is not correct.

D. a = 1.2 and b = 2

1.2 = 8 x 2

1.2 ≠ 16

This option is not correct.

Thus none of the options are correct.

There were 3 full pizzas sitting on a counter. If Joe ate ¼ of a pie, Rhonda ate ⅜ of a pie, and Chris ate 4 slices, how many slices of pizza were left? (Assume each pie is cut into 8 slices.)

Answers

Answer:

15 slices

Step-by-step explanation:

Joe ate 2 slices (1/4 = 2/8), Rhoda ate 3 (3/8), Chris ate 4.

2+3+4= 9.

there are 3 pizzas divided into 8 slices per pizza.

3 x 8 = 24 ; 24 slices total

subtract 9 (that’s what was consumed) from 24.

B. It has five legs and a diagonal
C. It has one pair of parallel sides
D. It has all pairs of parallel sides

Answers

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

A can't be right because rectangles and trapezoids are both closed polygons.

B can't be right because both shapes can't even have 5 legs.

C is right because triangles only have one pair of parallel sides and rectangles have two pairs.

D trapezoids don't have two pairs of parallel sides because two sides intersect eventually.

Oliver is 6 more than twice as old as Sam. If Oliver is 21 how old is Sam?
Write an equation to represent the situation.

Answer:

7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets give Oliver "O", and Sam "S".

O is 6 more than twice as old as Sam

O = 2S + 6

Since Oliver is 21, we can substitute it in

21 = 2S + 6

2S = 15

S = 7.5

The mean age of 5 people in a room is 39 years. A person enters the room. The mean age is now 36. What is the age of the person who entered the room?

Answers

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean is the average of the objects

With five people, the mean is the average age of these people so what did you divide 5 into to get 39.

5 × 39 = 195

After a person enter the room, total 6 in the room with a mean of 36.

6 × 36 = 216

Now the age of the person who entered the room  216 - 195 = 21

Y varies directly with x

Practical example-

Radius of the circle lit by a car's

Light decreases (y) as the distance away from the garage decreases (c)

2) Inverse variation

Simple equation y=k/x

Y inversely with c

Example- the brightness of a car's light increase (y) as the distance away from the garage decreases (x)

3) Joint variation

Simple equation y=kxz

Y varies jointly with x and z

Example-The heat lose through a glass window (y) varies jointly with the area of the window (x) and the temperature differences between inside and outside

Step-by-step explanation:

Ivan put 500 000ISK (Icelandic Krona) and Blake put 700 000ISK into savings accounts
at different banks.
After 8 years, Ivan and Blake have the same amount of money in their accounts.
They both receive interest compounded quarterly and Blake has an annual interest rate
that is half of Ivan's annual interest rate.
Work out the annual interest rate that Blake receives.

Answers

Using compound interest, it is found that Blake receives an annual rate of 4.27%.

Compound interest:

[tex]A(t) = P\left(1 + \frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]

A(t) is the amount of money after t years.  P is the principal(the initial sum of money).  r is the interest rate(as a decimal value).  n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year.  t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

Ivan's parameters are given by:

Put 500 000 ISK, hence [tex]P = 500000[/tex]8 years, hence [tex]t = 8[/tex]Quarterly compounding, hence [tex]n = 4[/tex]Interest rate of r.

Hence:

[tex]A_i(t) = P\left(1 + \frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]

[tex]A_i(t) = 500000\left(1 + \frac{r}{4}\right)^{32}[/tex]

[tex]A_i(t) = 500000(1 + 0.25r)^{32}[/tex]

Blake's parameters are given by:

Put 700 000 ISK, hence [tex]P = 700000[/tex]8 years, hence [tex]t = 8[/tex]Quarterly compounding, hence [tex]n = 4[/tex]Interest rate that is half of Ivan's, hence [tex]\frac{r}{2}[/tex]

Thus:

[tex]A_b(t) = P\left(1 + \frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]

[tex]A_b(t) = 700000(1 + 0.125r)^{32}[/tex]

These amounts are equal, hence:

[tex]A_i(t) = A_b(t)[/tex]

[tex]500000(1 + 0.25r)^{32} = 700000(1 + 0.125r)^{32}[/tex]

[tex]\left(\frac{1 + 0.25r}{1 + 0.125r}\right)^{32} = \frac{700000}{500000}[/tex]

[tex]\left(\frac{1 + 0.25r}{1 + 0.125r}\right)^{32} = \frac{7}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt[32]{\left(\frac{1 + 0.25r}{1 + 0.125r}\right)^{32}} = \sqrt[32]{\frac{7}{5}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1 + 0.25r}{1 + 0.125r} = \left(\frac{7}{5}\right)^{\frac{1}{32}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1 + 0.25r}{1 + 0.125r} = 1.01057023172 [/tex]

[tex]1 + 0.25r = 1.01057023172 + 0.12632127896r[/tex]

[tex]0.12367872103r = 0.01057023172 [/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{0.01057023172}{0.12367872103}[/tex]

[tex]r = 0.0854[/tex]

Blake's rate is:

[tex]\frac{r}{2} = \frac{0.0855}{2} = 0.0427[/tex]

Blake receives an annual rate of 4.27%.
