Given

One month julia collected 8.4 gallons of rainwater.

she used 5.2 gallons of rainwater to water her garden

6.5 gallons of rainwater to water flowers

Find out how much was the supply of rainwater increased or decreased by the end of the month.

To proof

As given in the question

One month julia collected 8.4 gallons of rainwater

she used 5.2 gallons of rainwater to water her garden and 6.5 gallons of rainwater to water flowers

Total water she used in the month = 5.2 gallons + 6.5gallons

                                                         = 11.7 gallons

Let the supply of rainwater increased or decreased by the end of the month

be x .

Than the equation become in the form

x + 8.4 = 11.7

x = 3.3 gallons

Therefore the supply of rainwater increased or decreased by the end of the month is 3.3 gallons.

Hence proved

Total rainwater collected by Julia = 8.4 gallons

Water used for watering garden = 5.2 gallons

Water used for watering flowers = 6.5 gallons

Hence, total water used by Julia = 5.2+6.5=11.7 gallons

11.7 gallons were used and only 8.4 gallons were collected , so supply of rainwater decreased by 11.7-8.4=3.3 gallons

A washer contains a drum that spins at 750 revolutions per minute. To the nearest hundredth, the angular velocity of the drum is
LenaWriter [7]
For this case, the first thing we must do is to take into account the following transformation of units:
 1 revolution = 2pi radians
 1 minute = 60 seconds
 Applying the transformation of units we have:
 (750) * (1/60) * (2 * pi) = 78.54 rad / sec

 Answer:
 
To the nearest hundredth, the angular velocity of the drum is 78.54 radians per second.

A lock has 5 buttons. The lock is opened by pushing two buttons simultaneously and then by pushing one button alone. How many co
Pavel [41]

We first must calculate how many ways 2 oblects can be chosen from 5.

combinations = 5! / 2! * (5-2)!

combinations = 5*4 / 2

combinations = 10


There are 10 ways to choose the 2 buttons and 5 ways to choose the final butto so there are 10 * 5 = 50 different ways.

There is a relationship between confidence interval and standard deviation:
\theta=\overline{x} \pm \frac{z\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}
Where \overline{x} is the mean, \sigma is standard deviation, and n is number of data points.
Every confidence interval has associated z value. This can be found online.
We need to find the standard deviation first: 
\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{\sum(x-\overline{x})^2}{n}
When we do all the calculations we find that:
\overline{x}=123.8\\ \sigma=11.84
Now we can find confidence intervals:
($90\%,z=1.645): \theta=123.8 \pm \frac{1.645\cdot 11.84}{\sqrt{15}}=123.8 \pm5.0\\($95\%,z=1.960): \theta=123.8 \pm \frac{1.960\cdot 11.84}{\sqrt{15}}=123.8 \pm 5.99\\ ($99\%,z=2.576): \theta=123.8 \pm \frac{2.576\cdot 11.84}{\sqrt{15}}=123.8 \pm 7.87\\
We can see that as confidence interval increases so does the error margin. Z values accociated with each confidence intreval also get bigger as confidence interval increases.
Here is the link to the spreadsheet with standard deviation calculation:

How are the two functions f(x) = 0.7(6)x and g(x) = 0.7(6)–x related to each other?

The answer
f(x) = 0.7(6)x = <span>f(x) = 0.7(6)^x, and  </span><span>g(x) = 0.7(6)–x= </span>g(x) = 0.7(6)^-x=1/<span>0.7(6)^x
so </span>
g(x) =1/<span>0.7(6)^x=1 /</span><span><span>f(x)

</span> the relationship between f and g are </span>g(x) =1 /<span>f(x) or </span><span>g(x) . <span>f(x) = 1</span> </span>
