Patty went to a dinner celebrating the wedding anniversary of her aunt and uncle. She asked her aunt how long they’ve been marri

ed. She replied, “If you can guess the magic number of years we’ve been married, we will give you a prize money of 300 times that magic number.” And then she gave this clue: "Double the magic number and add 1, and then subtract 20 from the result. Add the sum of -18 and 5, and get the additive inverse of the result. You will end up with the number 4." How much will Patty earn if she guesses the magic number correctly?

At higher altitudes, water boils at lower temperatures. This relationship between altitude and boiling point is linear. At an al

Mashutka [201]

Let's assume

boiling point is y

altitude is x

we are given

This relationship between altitude and boiling point is linear

At an altitude of 1000 feet, water boils at 210°F

so, first point is (1000,210)

so, x1=1000 , y1=210

At an altitude of 3000 feet, water boils at 206°F

so, second point is (3000,206)

so, x2=3000,y2=206

now, we can find slope

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

now, we can plug values

$m=\frac{206-210}{3000-1000}$

$m=-\frac{1}{500}$

now, we can use point slope form of line

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

so, we can plug it

$y-210=-\frac{1}{500}(x-1000)$

so, point slope form of line is

$y-210=-\frac{1}{500}(x-1000)$

now, we can plug x=8000

and then we can solve for y

$y-210=-\frac{1}{500}(8000-1000)$

$y=196$

So,

the boiling point of water at an altitude of 8000 feet is 196°F..........Answer

For the level 3 course, exam hours cost twice as much as workshop hours, workshop hours cost twice as much as lecture hours. How

natulia [17]

<h2>Answer</h2>

Cost of lectures = $7.33 per hour

<h2>Explanation</h2>

Let $e$ the cost of the exam hours

Let $w$ be the cost of the workshop hours

Let $l$ be the cost of the lecture hours.

We know from our problem that exam hours cost twice as much as workshop, so:

$e=2w$ equation (1)

We also know that workshop hours cost twice as much as lecture hours, so:

$w=2l$ equation (2)

Finally, we also know that 3hr exams 24hr workshops and 12hr lectures cost $528, so:

$3e+24w+12l=528$ equation (1)

Now, lets find the value of $l$ :

Step 1. Solve for $l$ in equation (3)

$3e+24w+12l=528$

$12l=528-3e-24w$ equation (4)

Step 2. Replace equation (1) in equation (4) and simplify

$12l=528-3e-24w$

$12l=528-3(2w)-24w$

$12l=528-6w-24w$

$12l=528-30w$ equation (5)

Step 3. Replace equation (2) in equation (5) and solve for $l$

$12l=528-30w$

$12l=528-30(2l)$

$12l=528-60l$

$72l=528$

$l=\frac{528}{72}$

$l=\frac{22}{3}$

$l=7.33$

Cost of lectures = $7.33 per hour

A popular chain of superstores made 3.0479×108 dollars in profit last year. One particular store in the chain made 2.102×106 dol

ollegr [7]

This is a simple exercise with rates.
You just have to divide the total profit of the store, that year, per the profit of the particular store.

[3.0479×10⁸ dollars] ÷ [2.102×10⁶ dollars] = 1,45 x 10²

The manager of a video game store found that 35 of the 140 people who preordered the latest baseball game canceled their orders

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer: $\frac{1}{16}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The manager of a video game store found that 35 of the 140 people who preordered the latest baseball game canceled their orders the day before the game was released.

The probability that two customers who preorder the newest golf game will both cancel their orders the day before the game is released

$=\frac{35}{140}\times\frac{35}{140}=\frac{1}{4}\times\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{16}$

Hence, The probability that two customers who preorder the newest golf game will both cancel their orders the day before the game is released is $\frac{1}{16}$ .
