Three cats and three dogs, A, B, C, D, E, and F, live on a street in three different-coloured houses. Each house hosts one cat a

nd one dog. One house is red. A is a cat and does not live in the red house. B is a dog and does not live in the same house as C (even though they could). D lives in the blue house. D does not live with A or F (even though it could). E does not live with A and does not live in the yellow house.
Indicate whether each letter correspond to a cat or a dog, and match each cat and each dog with a colored house.

Answer:

1) A is a cat; B is a dog; C is a cat; D is a dog; E is a dog; F is a cat

2) A lives with B in a yellow house; C lives with D in a blue house; E lives with F in a red house.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: First we identify the animals as cats or dogs

A is a cat

B is a Dog

Since B can live with C, C is a cat

Since D can live with A, D is a dog

F is a cat since it can live with D

E is therefore, a dog

Step 2: We then identify the house each two animals live in pairs of a cat and a dog

D lives in a blue house

A lives in a yellow house since it does not live with D or in a red house

C lives with D in a blue house since D does not live with either A or F

E lives in a red house since it does not live with A or in a yellow house

F lives with E in a red house since E does not live with A

Therefore, B lives with A in a yellow house

Gwen buys 3 identical pairs of shoes at Store a. She pays $110.25 after the discount. what is the original price of each pair?

emmasim [6.3K]

In perspective this looks tricky but really its no ;) just follow it slowly.
110.25 is your total cost
3 is how many you bought.
So doing division 3/110.25= 36.75
CHECK: 36.75 + 36.75 + 36.75 = 110.25.
Hope this helps.

Suppose a1=12−12,a2=23−13,a3=34−14,a4=45−15,a5=56−16. a) Find an explicit formula for an: . b) Determine whether the sequence is

lorasvet [3.4K]

I'm going to assume you meant to write fractions (because if $a_n$ are all non-negative integers, the series would clearly diverge), so that

$a_1=\dfrac12-\dfrac12$

$a_2=\dfrac23-\dfrac13$

$a_3=\dfrac34-\dfrac14$

and so on.

a. If the pattern continues as above, we would have the general term

$a_n=\dfrac n{n+1}-\dfrac1{n+1}=\dfrac{n-1}{n+1}$

b. Note that we can write $a_n$ as

$a_n=\dfrac{n-1}{n+1}=\dfrac{n+1-2}{n+1}=1-\dfrac2{n+1}$

The series diverges by comparison to the divergent series

$\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac1n$

Susan plans to use 120 feet of fencing to enclose a rectangular area for a garden. Which equation best models the area, y, of th

mina [271]

Well we set the perimeter to 120 feet.
This means that 2x+2y=120
Now we know the area of a rectangle is xy so we have to solve for both x and y in the perimeter equation.

2x=120-2y
x=60-y

2y=120-2x
y=60-x

Now we plug these values into our area equation A=xy to get:
A=(60-y)(60-x)

The heights of fully grown sugar maple trees are normally distributed, with a mean of 87.5 feet and a standard deviation of 6.25

Julli [10]

Answer:

20.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the mean (m) is equal to 87.5, the standard deviation (sd) 6.25 and the sample size (n) = 12

They ask us for P (x <86)

For this, the first thing is to calculate z, which is given by the following equation:

z = (x - m) / (sd / (n ^ 1/2))

We have all these values, replacing we have:

z = (86 - 87.5) / (6.25 / (12 ^ 1/2))

z = -0.83

With the normal distribution table (attached), we have that at that value, the probability is:

P (z <-0.83) = 0.2033

The probability is 20.33%
