In a certain company, there were five candidates running for President. After the vots were tallied, it turned out that Victor, like in the election, finished in thir place, and david beat him. Greg said that he didn't come in first, but he also didn't come in last. Mac in an interview, said that in this election he wasn't able to win, but at least he was one place hight than his old rival Bill. What place did each candidate come in?
Considering the situation described, the classification of the elections is given as follows, according to their order of finish:
David, Greg, Victor, Mac, Bill.
How to find the classification of the elections?We take the situation that is described, and build the classification from it. The classification has the following format:
P1 - P2 - P3 - P4 - P5
With P1 being the first placed candidate, P2 being the second placed candidate, and so on until P5 which is the fifth placed candidate.
From the text given in this problem, we have that:
Victor finished in third place, and David beat him, hence P3 = Victor, David = P1 or P2.Greg didn't come in first nor in last, hence, considering that Victor is P3, Greg = P2 or P4.Mac didn't win, but he finished higher than Bill, hence, considering that Mac didn't win and that Victor is P3, Mac = P4, Bill = P5.From the bullet points above, we can conclude that David = P1, Greg = P2.Hence the classification of the election is given by:
David, Greg, Victor, Mac, Bill.

Kiran was trying to solve the equation 3x 8 = 7x - 8. She said, "The equation has no
solutions because the constant is the same." Do you agree with Kiran? Explain your
reasoning
The statement that the equation has no solutions because the constant is the same is true
How to determine the true statement?The equation is given as:
3x - 8 = 7x- 8
Add 8 to both sides
3x - 8 + 8= 7x- 8 + 8
Evaluate the like terms
3x = 7x
Divide both sides by x
3 = 7
The above equation is false, because 3 and 7 are not equal
This means that the statement that the equation has no solutions because the constant is the same is true

A coin-operated drink machine was designed to discharge a mean of 7 ounces of coffee per cup. In a test of the machine, the discharge amounts in 18 randomly chosen cups of coffee from the machine were recorded. The sample mean and sample standard deviation were 7.04 ounces and 0.17 ounces, respectively. If we assume that the discharge amounts are normally distributed, is there enough evidence, at the 0.1 level of significance, to conclude that the true mean discharge,u, differs from ounces? Perform a two-tailed test. Then fill in the table below. I need the two critical values at the 0.1 level of significace. Also need the answers to al other questions and whether we accpe for reject.
Using the t-distribution, it is found that since the test statistic is between -1.7341 and 1.7341, we do not reject(accept) the null hypothesis, hence there is not enough evidence to conclude that the true mean discharge differs from 7 ounces.
What are the hypothesis tested?At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the mean is of 7 ounces, that is:
[tex]H_0: \mu = 7[/tex]
At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the mean is different of 7 ounces, that is:
[tex]H_1: \mu \neq 7[/tex]
What is the test statistic?The test statistic is given by:
[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
The parameters are:
[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] is the sample mean.[tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis.s is the standard deviation of the sample.n is the sample size.The values of the parameters are given by:
[tex]\overline{x} = 7.04, \mu = 7, s = 0.17, n = 18[/tex]
Hence the value of the test statistic is found as follows:
[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{7.04 - 7}{\frac{0.17}{\sqrt{18}}}[/tex]
t = 1
What is the decision?Considering a two-tailed test, as we are testing if the mean is different of a value, with 18 - 1 = 17 df and a significance level of 0.1, the critical value is of [tex]t^{\ast} = 1.7341[/tex]
Since the test statistic is between -1.7341 and 1.7341, we do not reject(accept) the null hypothesis, hence there is not enough evidence to conclude that the true mean discharge differs from 7 ounces.

28 grams of seeds cost $100 , and 14 grams of seeds cost $60. If you only have $70 and someone gives you $30 to buy 28 grams, how many grams of seeds would you give the person that gave you $30 if you paid $70?
Answer:
8.4 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
We have $70 to start and someone us another $30 for a total of $100. We pay $100 for 28 grams of seeds. If we assume the peron giving us $30 wants a fair share of the seeds, we would calculate an average cost per gram and use that to determine the grams of seeds that the $30 would have covered.
($100/28 grams) = $3.57/gram
($30/$3.57/gram) = 8.4 grams
Answer:
28 grams of seeds
Step-by-step explanation:
(This question is a little tricky)
Note that:
{28 grams of seeds = $100}
----------------------------------------
You have $70 already, and then someone gives you $30.
It means $70 + $30 = $100
So you have $100 now, you can buy 28 grams of seeds and give the person that gave you $30.

How many natural numbers between $150$ and $300$ are divisible by $9$?
Answer:
There are 17 natural numbers divisible.
There are 17 natural numbers between 150 and 300 that are divisible by 9.
To find the number of natural numbers between 150 and 300 that are divisible by 9, we need to find the count of multiples of 9 within this range.
The first multiple of 9 greater than or equal to 150 is 153 (9 x 17), and the last multiple of 9 less than or equal to 300 is 297 (9 x 33).
Now, we can calculate the number of multiples of 9 between 153 and 297 (inclusive):
Number of multiples of 9 = (Last multiple - First multiple) / 9 + 1
Number of multiples of 9 = (297 - 153) / 9 + 1
Number of multiples of 9 = 144 / 9 + 1
Number of multiples of 9 = 16 + 1
Number of multiples of 9 = 17
So, there are 17 natural numbers between 150 and 300 that are divisible by 9.

Find a b, 6a 9b, |a|, and |a − b|. (simplify your vectors completely. ) a = −9, 12 , b = 6, 4
The values of a + b, 6a + 9b, |a|, and |a − b| are −3i + 16j, 0i + 108j, 15 and 17 respectively. This can be obtained by using vector addition, vector subtraction and formula to find magnitude of a vector.
Find the values of a + b, 6a + 9b, |a|, and |a − b|:Given that,
a = <−9, 12> , b = <6, 4>
These vectors can be rewritten as,
a = <−9, 12> = −9i + 12j
b = <6, 4> = 6i + 4j
To find a + b,we add both vectors a and b together,a + b = −9i + 12j + 6i + 4j
a + b = −9i + 6i + 12j + 4j
a + b = (−9 + 6)i + (12 + 4)j
a + b = −3i + 16j
To find 6a + 9b, we first find 6a and 9b then add them both together,
6a = 6 (−9i + 12j )
6a = −54i + 72j
9b = 9(6i + 4j)
9b = 54i + 36j
Now add 6a and 9b together,
6a + 9b = −54i + 72j + 54i + 36j
6a + 9b = −54i + 54i + 72j + 36j
6a + 9b = 0i + 108j
To find |a|, use the formula to find the magnitude of a vector,If a = a₁i + a₂j, |a| = √a₁² + a₂²
Here, a = −9i + 12j
|a| = √(−9)² + (12)²
|a| = √81 + 144 = √225
|a| = 15
To find |a − b|, first subtract b from a and find the magnitude of the resultant,a - b = −9i + 12j - (6i + 4j)
a - b = −9i - 6i + 12j - 4j
a - b = −15i + 8j
Now use the formula to find the magnitude of a vector,
|a − b| = √(-15)² + (8)²
|a − b| = √225 + 64 = √289
|a − b| = 17
Hence the values of a + b, 6a + 9b, |a|, and |a − b| are −3i + 16j, 0i + 108j, 15 and 17 respectively.

Consider the line 4x + 2y = 8.
What is the slope of a line perpendicular to this line?
m1 x m2 = - 1
Rearrange 4x + 2y = 8.
4x + 2y = 8
-4x, then ÷ 2
y = - 4x + 8 / 2
y = - 2x + 4
m1 = - 2, find reciprocal of - 2, by placing 1 over the 2
So, - 2 will become - 1/2, but multiplying this gives us a positive 1. Thus, m2 = 1/2
m1 x m2 = - 1
-2 x 1/2 = - 1
That means slope perpendicular to the line
4x + 2y = 8 is y = 1/2x, where a half is the gradient/slope.

The answer is (2,-2).
What do we mean by translation?Each point in a figure is moved the same distance in the same direction using a type of transformation known as translation.A transformation known as a translation involves shifting each point in a figure by the same amount and in the same direction. For instance, this transformation shifts the parallelogram 3 units upward and 5 units to the right.A transformation in geometry is an action that moves, flips, or modifies a shape (referred to as the preimage) to produce a new shape (called the image). An example of a transformation is a translation, which moves every point in a figure uniformly and in one direction.Find the image of the given point under the given translation:
The rule of translation is (x+9, y - 3), P (-7, 1).

Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-intercept form of a linear equation:
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]
where:
m is the slope.b is the y-intercept.Rearrange the given equation so that it is in slope-intercept form:
[tex]\implies -5x-7y=-17[/tex]
[tex]\implies -7y=5x-17[/tex]
[tex]\implies y=-\dfrac{5}{7}x+\dfrac{17}{7}[/tex]
Therefore, the slope of the given equation is -⁵/₇.
If two lines are perpendicular to each other (at right angles), the product of their slopes will be -1. Therefore, their slopes will be negative reciprocals of each other.
Therefore, the slope of the line perpendicular to the given equation is:
[tex]\sf m=\dfrac{7}{5}[/tex]
Substitute the found slope and the given point (6, -5) into the slope-intercept formula and solve for b:
[tex]\implies -5=\dfrac{7}{5}(6)+b[/tex]
[tex]\implies -5=\dfrac{42}{5}+b[/tex]
[tex]\implies b=-\dfrac{67}{5}[/tex]
