Cai says you can divide both quantities in a ratio by the same nonzero number to
find an equivalent ratio. Explain why Cai is correct.(MATH)

Answers

Answer:

correct

Step-by-step explanation:

dividing both quantities in a ratio by the same non zero number does indeed find an equivalent ratio.

for example

60 : 36 ( divide both parts by 6 )

= 10 : 6 ← equivalent ratio ( divide both parts by 2 )

= 5 : 3 ← equivalent ratio in simplest form

in fact dividing the original by the HCF of the 2 quantities gives the ratio in simplest form immediately , that is

60 : 36 ( divide both parts by 12 )

= 5 : 3

Carlos went to PetSmart to get his hamster an exercise ball. There was a small one with a 5 inch diameter and a 13 inch ball. How much more space (volume) is in the larger than the smaller? Round to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

150.8 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the 5 inch ball is

[tex]\frac{4}{3}\pi (5/2)^{3}[/tex]

The volume of the 13 inch ball is

[tex]\frac{4}{3}\pi (13/2)^{3}[/tex]

Subtracting these volumes, we get about 150.8 in³.

The amount of space (volume) that is in the larger spherical ball than the smaller will be 1,084.8 in.³

What is the Volume of a Spherical Solid?

To find the volume of a sphere, which is the amount of space the solid contains, the formula used is given as: 4/3 πr³,

where r is the radius of the sphere, which is half the measure of the diameter.

Diameter of the smaller spherical ball = 5 inches

Radius = 5/2 = 2.5 inches

Volume of the smaller spherical ball = 4/3 πr³ = 4/3 × π × 2.5³

Volume ≈ 65.5 in.³

Diameter of the larger spherical ball = 13 inches

Radius = 13/2 = 6.5 inches

Volume of the larger spherical ball = 4/3 πr³ = 4/3 × π × 6.5³

Volume of the larger spherical ball ≈ 1,150.3 in.³

The amount of space (volume) that is in the larger spherical ball than the smaller.

= 1,150.3  - 65.5

The amount of space (volume) that is in the larger spherical ball than the smaller will be 1,084.8 in.³

A fish can swim at 14m/s with the current and at 6m/s against it. Find the speed
of the current and the speed of the fish in still water.

Answers

Answer:

10 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = speed of fish and y = speed of current. When swimming with current, the fish's speed is x + y. When swimming against it, the speed is x - y. Therefore, we can set up a system of linear equations to solve for x, the speed of fish.

x + y = 14

x - y = 6

2y = 8

y = 4

x - 4 = 6

x = 10

The speed of fish in still water is 10 m/s, and the speed of current is 4 m/s.

Answer:

Speed of fish in still water = 10 m/s

Speed of current = 4 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of the fish in still water = x m\s

Let the speed of the current  = y m/s

Speed of the fish with the current = x + y

 x +y = 14 m/s ------------------(I)

Speed of the fish against current = x -y

 x - y = 6 m/s ----(II) &

Add the equations (I) & (II) and 'y' will be eliminated and we can find the value of 'x'.

     x + y = 14

     x - y =  6      {Now, add)

     2x    = 20

           x = 20/2

          x = 10

[tex]\sf \boxed{\text{\bf Speed of fish in still water = 10 \ m / s}}[/tex]

Plugin x = 10 in equation (I)

    10 + y = 14

            y = 14 - 10

           y = 4

a swimming pool charges £3.60 for entry. you can save 1/3 of entry fee with a membership card. on his first visit, ken spends £5 on a membership card plus the reduced entry fee. how many times does ken visit before he gets back his £5

Answers

The number of times Ken visits, given the £3.6 pool charge, and 1/3 savings per visit is 5 times.

Which method can be used to find the number of times Ken visits the pool to get back his £5?

The entry fee = £3.60

Amount saved on entry fee by having a membership card = 1/3 of the entry fee

Amount Ken spends on the membership card and the reduced entry fee = £5

Therefore;

Reduced entry fee = £3.60×(1 - 1/3) = £2.4

Amount saved per visit = £3.6 - £2.4 = £1.2

The number of visits, n, before he gets back his £5 is therefore;

n = £5/(£1.2/visit) ≈ 4.17 visits

Ken has to visit the swimming pool more than 4 times to get his £5 back.

Rounding to the next larger whole, therefore;

The number of visits, n, before he gets back his £5 is 5 visits

Vanessa knows that about 20% of the students in her school are bilingual. She wants to estimate the probability that if 3 students were randomly selected, all 3 of them would be bilingual. To do so, she will use a spinner with 5 equally sized sections labeled as either "bilingual" or "monolingual". She will spin the spinner 3 times, record the results, and repeat the process 50 times.

How many of the 5 sections should she label "bilingual"?

How many of the 5 sections should she label "monolingual"?

Answers

Answer:

1 section should be labelled "bilingual".

4 sections should be labelled "monolingual".

Step-by-step explanation:

If 20% of students in the school are bilingual, then 80% of students in the school are monolingual, since 100% - 20% = 80%.

If the spinner is to be divided into 5 equally sized sections, with each section labeled as "bilingual" or "monolingual" to represent the corresponding proportion of students in the school, then:

Bilingual

  20% of 5

= 20/100 × 5

= 100/100

= 1 section

Monolingual

  80% of 5

= 80/100 × 5

= 400/100

= 4 sections

Therefore:

1 section should be labelled "bilingual".4 sections should be labelled "monolingual".

Ashlee sells lunches for $7.00 and drinks for $2.25. One busy Saturday, Ashlee sold $440.00 worth of lunches and drinks. Which equation represents the relation between the number of lunches sold, x, the number of drinks sold, y, and the amount in dollars that Ashlee sold that day?
Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer:

7x + 2.25y = 440

Step-by-step explanation:

Ashlee sells lunches for $7.00 and drinks for $2.25.

One busy Saturday, Ashlee sold $440.00 worth of lunches and drinks.

The number of lunches sold is x.

Manufacturers of tires report that car tires should be able to last an average of 50,000 miles. A new tire company produces a different type of tread and tests 100 randomly selected tires. This sample of 100 tires lasted an average of 51,500 miles. Assuming the new type of tread does not improve the mileage of the tire, 200 sample means were simulated and displayed on the dotplot.



Using the dotplot and the sample mean mileage, is there convincing evidence that the new type of tread improves the mileage of the tire?

Yes, because a mean mileage of 51,500 or more occurred only 14 out of 200 times, the mean mileage is statistically significant. There is convincing evidence the new type of tire tread improves mileage of the tire.
Yes, because a mean mileage of 51,500 or less occurred 186 out of 200 times, the mean mileage is statistically significant. There is convincing evidence the new type of tire tread improves mileage of the tire.
No, because a mean mileage of 51,500 or less occurred 186 out of 200 times, the mean mileage is not statistically significant. There is not convincing evidence the new type of tire tread improves mileage of the tire.
No, because a mean mileage of 51,500 or more occurred 14 out of 200 times, the mean mileage is not statistically significant. There is not convincing evidence the new type of tire tread improves mileage of the tire.

Answers

There is convincing evidence the new type of tire tread improves mileage of the tire.

How to interpret the mean mileage?

The given parameter is:

Average = 50000 miles

New average = 51500 miles

The dot plot is added as an attachment

From the dot plot, we can see that the mean value of 51500 or more occurred 14 times out of the 200 samples

So, the conclusion is that: (a) Yes, because a mean mileage of 51,500 or more occurred only 14 out of 200 times, the mean mileage is statistically significant. There is convincing evidence the new type of tire tread improves mileage of the tire.

Give that m/_ y=39, find the measures of angles a and b

Answers

Answer:

  ∠a = 39°

  ∠b = 129°

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical angles are congruent. An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the remote interior angles.

Application

Angle y and angle 'a' are vertical angles, so congruent.

  ∠a = ∠y = 39°

The angle marked 'b' is an exterior angle to the triangle. Its remote interior angles are 'a' and the one marked 90°.

  ∠b = ∠a +90° = 39° +90°

  ∠b = 129°

To develop this fund, Steven intends to make equal contributions on June 30th of each of the years 2020 through 2023. How much must the balance of the fund equal on June 30th 2023 in order for Steve to satisfy his objective?

Answers

Based on the amount that Steve Weatherspoon wants to withdraw every year beginning in June 30, 2024, and the interest rate, the balance on June 30th 2023 should be $45,203.

What should the balance be in 2023?

The fact that Steve Weatherspoon wants to be able to withdraw a particular amount every year, this makes this amount an annuity.

The value in 2023 would therefore be the present value of the annuity that will then accrue to the required amounts as the years go by.

The present value of an annuity is:

= Annuity amount per year  x Present value interest factor of an annuity, 11%, 3 years between 2024 and 2027

Solving gives:

= 13,126.25 x 3.44371
