Turn it into an algebraic equation.

2x-8=x+7

Combine like terms.

x=15

The number is 15.

Estimate the figure to the nearest whole number
olya-2409 [2.1K]
That means that, for example:

 if your number is 49 the nearest whole number would be 50.

so by saying estimate the figure to the nearest whole number , they are basically saying find your nearest whole number.

The following is a linear programming formulation of a labor planning problem. There are four overlapping shifts, and management
dexar [7]

Answer:

d. 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Putting the values in the shift 2 function

X1 + X2 ≥ 15

where x1=  13, and x2=2

13+12≥ 15

15≥ 15

At least 15 workers must be assigned to the shift 2.

The LP model questions require that the constraints are satisfied.

The constraint for the shift 2 is that the  number of workers must be equal or greater than 15

This can be solved using other constraint functions e.g

Putting  X4= 0 in

X1 + X4 ≥ 12

gives

X1 ≥ 12

Now Putting the value X1 ≥ 12  in shift 2 constraint

X1 + X2 ≥ 15

12+ 2≥ 15

14 ≥ 15

this does not satisfy the condition so this is wrong.

Now from

X2 + X3 ≥ 16

Putting X3= 14

X2 + 14 ≥ 16

gives

X2  ≥ 2

Putting these in the shift 2

X1 + X2 ≥ 15

13+2 ≥ 15

15 ≥ 15

Which gives the same result as above.

If Raj randomly chooses a point in the square below, what is the probability that point is not in the circle? Assume that pi = 3
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

49.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

A cdircle is located within a square.

<u>Area of the circle</u>

Area = \pir^{2}, where r = 4 units.

Area Circle = 50.3 units^2

<u>Area of the square</u>

Area = l*w or l^2 for a square, since l = w

Area = (10 units)^2

Area = 100 units^2

<u>Area in the square but outside the circle</u>

This is the difference [Square minus Circle Areas]

Square minus Circle Areas = 100 - 50.3  or <u>49.7 units^2</u>

<u>Probability</u>

The probability of picking a point in the square that is not in the circle is the ration of the two areas:  <u>[Outside Circle/Square]x100%</u>

<u></u>

<u>(</u>49.7 units^2)/(100 units^2)x100% = 49.7%

<u></u>
