Nico dropped the brand new bottle of dog shampoo and 3 ounce spilled out. He measured 1 1/4 ounces each time he shampoos his dog

and the bottle of shampoo originally contained 30 1/2 ounces. What is an equation and value of x the number of times Nico can bathe his dog using this one bottle

Answer:

equation ( 1.25x = 27.5 ) and x = 22.

Step-by-step explanation:

Shampoo bottle contains shampoo = $30\frac{1}{2}$ ounces = 30.5 ounces

If 3 ounces spilled out the remaining amount of shampoo = ( 30.5 - 3 ) = 27.5 ounces.

Every time he shampoos his dog, amount of shampoo required = $1\frac{1}{4}$ ounces = 1.25 ounce

If x is the number of times Nico can bathe his dog using the same bottle of shampoo then total amount used = (1.25) (x) ounces

Now remaining amount of shampoo = ttal amount used to shampoo the dog

(27.5) = (1.25x)

x= $\frac{27.5}{1.25}$ = 22 times

So answer will be equation ( 1.25x = 27.5 ) and x = 22.

Answer:

30 1/2 - 3 = 27 1/2

27 1/2 = 1 1/4x

he can bathe his dog 22 times

Carla and Jonah are working together to determine if quadrilateral CDEF with coordinates C(2, 3), D(1, 2), E(4, 1), and F(5, 3)

mart [117]

Answer:

A. Carla is on the right track because she is finding the slopes of consecutive sides to check for perpendicular sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

Only adjacent sides can be perpendicular, so Jonah's approach of finding slopes of opposite sides cannot work.

Carla is on the right track; choice A.

The house Trevor's family lives in has 6 66 people (including Trevor) and 3 33 bathrooms. In the past month, each person showere

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

The amount Trevor's family pay per minute on shower water is $0.005.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of water is,

Cost = $0.20/liter

Amount of water used over the entire month:

Amount of water used = 72 liters

Compute the total water cost as follows:

Total water cost = Amount of water used × Cost

= 72 × 0.20

= $14.4/liter

The average number of minutes each person showered is:

Average number of minutes = 480 minutes.

The number of people in Trevor's house:

N = 6

Compute the total amount of time the 6 person showered as follows:

Total amount of time = Average number of minutes × N

= 480 × 6

= 2880 minutes

Compute the pay per minute on shower water as follows:

Pay per minute on water = Total water cost ÷ Total amount of time

= $14.4 ÷ 2880

= $0.005

Thus, the amount Trevor's family pay per minute on shower water is $0.005.

For the angles α and β in the figures, find cos(α + β)?

Blababa [14]

Answer:

$\cos(\alpha +\beta)=\frac{2}{3}(1-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{5})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the hypotenuse of the smaller triangle be h units.

Then; from the Pythagoras Theorem.

$h^2=4^2+2^2$

$h^2=16+4$

$h^2=20$

$h=\sqrt{20}$

$h=2\sqrt{5}$

From the smaller triangle;

$\cos (\alpha)=\frac{4}{2\sqrt{5} }=\frac{2}{\sqrt{5} }$ and $\sin(\alpha)=\frac{2}{2\sqrt{5} }=\frac{1}{\sqrt{5} }$

From the second triangle, let the other other shorter leg of the second triangle be s units.

Then;

$s^2+4^2=6^2$

$s^2+16=36$

$s^2=36-16$

$s^2=20$

$s=\sqrt{20}$

$s=2\sqrt{5}$

$\cos(\beta)=\frac{2\sqrt{5} }{6}=\frac{\sqrt{5} }{3}$

and

$\sin(\beta)=\frac{4}{6}=\frac{2}{3}$

We now use the double angle property;

$\cos(\alpha +\beta)=\cos(\alpha)\cos(\beta) -\sin(\alpha)\sin(\beta)$

we plug in the values to obtain;

$\cos(\alpha +\beta)=\frac{2}{\sqrt{5} }\times \frac{\sqrt{5} }{3}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{5} }\times \frac{2}{3}$

$\cos(\alpha +\beta)=\frac{2}{3}(1-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{5})$

Which values of m and b will create a system of equations with no solution? Select two options. y = mx + b y = –2x + A system of

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

m = -2 and b = -1/3

m = -2 and b = -2/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2x - 1/3

y = -2x - 2/3

This system has no solutions because y cannot be 2 different values at once.

Suppose the following are the city driving gas mileages of a selection of sport utility vehicles (SUVs). 19, 20, 19, 20, 18, 21,

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of the gas mileages is 317÷16=19.8125

317 is the sum total of all the figures and 16 is the number of figures in the distribution

Standard deviation is the square root of the variance and the variance is the mean of all squared deviations

The 16 squared deviations are

7.9102(×2) + 3.2852(×2) + 0.6602(×3) + 0.0352(×4) + 1.4102(×3) + 10.1602 + 17.5352 = 56.4382

56.4382÷16 = 3.5274

This is the Variance. The standard deviation is herefore √3.5274 =1.878 ~ 1.88 (to 2 decimal places)

(B) Chebyshev's inequality predicts that 75% of the selection will fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean

2×1.88=3.76

19.8125-3.76 = 16.05

19.8125+3.76= 23.57

The gas mileages are between 16.05 and 23.57

(C) the actual % of SUV models of the sample that fall in the above range is (15/16 × 100) = 93.75%

(D) the empirical rule gives the more accurate prediction
