Answer:

13 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

X = number of weeks

Vicki = 210 + 15(x)

Jet = 275 + 10(x)

210 + 15(x) = 275 + 10(x)

Find like terms

5x=65

Isolate the variable

<u>5x</u> = <u>65</u>

5      5          65 divide by 5= 13

*If you need to check substitute 13 for x in the equation and see if it is correct*

If a baker doubles a recipe that calls for 6-2/3 cups of flour. How many cups will be needed in all?
nadya68 [22]
Hey there!

The easiest way I could think to do this is by converting your mixed number to an improper fraction and multiplying the fraction by 2, or 2 over 1. 

6 \frac{2}{3}  = 6*3+2 =  \frac{20}{3}

\frac{20}{3} *  \frac{2}{1}

To multiply fractions, you can just multiply the numerators and denominators and simplify, if applicable. 

\frac{20}{3} * \frac{2}{1} = \frac{40}{3}

Since you can't simplify this fraction in its improper form, just convert it back into a mixed number. 

\frac{40}{3} = 13 \frac{1}{3}

So, your answer will be 13 \frac{1}{3}. 

Hope this helped you out! :-)

Find two complex numbers that have a sum of i10 a different of -4and a product of -29​
lianna [129]
<h2>-2+5i and 2+5i</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

   Let the complex numbers be a+ib\textrm{ and }c+id.

Given, sum is 10i, difference is -4 and product is -29.

(a+c)+i(b+d)=10i ⇒ a+c=0,b+d=10

(a-c)+i(b-d)=-4 ⇒ a-c=-4,b-d=0

a=-2,c=2,b=5,d=5

(a+ib)(c+id)=(-2+5i)(2+5i)=-4-25=-29

Hence, all three equations are consistent yielding the complex numbers -2+5i\textrm{ and }2+5i.

A given set of values is found to be a normal distribution with a mean of 140 and a standard deviation of 18.0. Find the value t
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The value that is greater than 45% of the data values is approximately 137.84.

Step-by-step explanation:

The key is transforming values from this distribution to a z-score range and finding the corresponding value using a z-score table.

We are looking for a value x which attains a critical z-score that corresponds to the (100-45)%=55-th percentile:

z_{0.55} = \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{x-140}{18}\implies x = 18\cdot z_{0.55}+140

The critical z value (from z-score table, online) is: -0.12, so:

x = 18\cdot z_{0.55}+140=18\cdot(-0.12)+140\approx137.84

The value that is greater than 45% of the data values is approximately 137.84.

Manuela solved the equation 3−2|0.5x+1.5|=2 for one solution. Her work is shown below. 3−2|0.5x+1.5|=2 −2|0.5x+1.5|=−1 |0.5x+1.5
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll just work on solving both so you can see what's involved in solving an absolute value equation. Because an absolute value is a distance, we can have that distance being both to the right on the number line of the number in question or to the left. For example, from 2 on the number line, the numbers that are 5 units away are 7 and -3. Using that logic, we will simplify the equation down so we can set up the 2 basic equations needed to solve for x.

If  3-2|.5x+1.5|=2 then

-2|.5x+1.5|=-1  What you need to remember here is that you cannot distribute into a set of absolute values like you would a set of parenthesis. The -2 needs to be divided away:

|.5x+1.5|=.5

Now we can set up the 2 main equations for this which are

.5x + 1.5 = .5  and .5x + 1.5 = -.5

Knowing that an absolute value will never equal a negative number (because absolute values are distances and distances will NEVER be negative), once we remove the absolute value signs we can in fact state that the expression on the left can be equal to a negative number on the right, like in the second equation above.

Solving the first one:

.5x = -1 so

x = -2

Solving the second one:

.5x = -2 so

x = -4
