Answer: 1.091 which is approximately 1 word per second
Step-by-step explanation:
Jack can text 180 words in 2 minutes and 45 seconds. We would convert 2 minutes to seconds
60 seconds = 1 minute
x seconds = 2 minutes
x = 2×60 = 120 seconds
2 minutes 45seconds = 120+45 = 165 seconds
This means Jack can text 180 words in 165 seconds
Let's find his unit rate in texts per second
if jack texts 180 words in 165 seconds
Then jack texts y words in 1 second
165y = 180
y = 180/165= 1.091 words per second
This is approximately 1 word per second

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
5x + 3 - 2x = 12 + 7x - 2
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Combine like terms: 3x + 3 = 7x + 10
- [SPE] Subtract 3x on both sides: 3 = 4x + 10
- [SPE] Subtract 10 on both sides: -7 = 4x
- [DPE] Divide 4 on both sides: -7/4 = x
- Rewrite: x = -7/4
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 5(-7/4) + 3 - 2(-7/4) = 12 + 7(-7/4) - 2
- Multiply: -35/4 + 3 + 7/2 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
- Add: -23/4 + 7/2 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
- Add: -9/4 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
- Subtract: -9/4 = -1/4 - 2
- Subtract: -9/4 = -9/4
Here we see that -9/4 does indeed equal -9/4.
∴ x = -7/4 is the solution to the equation.
Answer: x = 28
===================================================
Explanation:
The angles COE, EOF, and FOB combine to form angle COB
angle COB = (angleCOE)+(angleEOF)+(angleFOB)
angle COB = (3x)+(x)+(x+12)
angle COB = 5x+12
----------
Angles AOD and COB are vertical angles, so they are congruent
angle COB = angle AOD
5x+12 = 152
5x = 152-12
5x = 140
x = 140/5
x = 28
Answer:
Naomi had the correct measurement the ring weighed 0.625 carats
Step-by-step explanation:
* The diamond ring weighed 5/8 carats
- To know who is right lets change the fraction 5/8 to a decimal number
∵ 5/8 means 5 ÷ 8
- 5 is smaller than 8 so we will multiply it by 10 and
insert decimal point in the quotient (answer of division)
∴ It will be 50 ÷ 8 = 6 and remainder 2/8 ⇒ 1/4
∴ The quotient = 0.6 and remainder 1/4
- 1 is smaller than 4 so we will multiply it by 10
∴ It will be 10 ÷ 4 = 2 and remainder 2/4 ⇒ 1/2
∴ The quotient = 0.62 and remainder 1/2
- 1 is smaller than 2 so we will multiply it by 10
∴ It will be 10 ÷ 2 = 5 without remainder
∴ The quotient = 0.625
* Naomi had the correct measurement the ring weighed 0.625 carats
Answer:
Price of widget to break even= $37.9
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that the equation representing the amount of profit, y, made by the company, in relation to the selling price of each widget, x is;
y = -8x² + 348x - 1705
Now, the company will break even when it has made no profit. That is when, y = 0
Thus;
0 = -8x² + 348x - 1705
Rearranging,
8x² - 348x + 1705 = 0
Using quadratic formula ;
x = [-b ± √(b² - 4ac)]/2a
x = [-8 ± √(-348² - 4•1•1705)]/(2 x 8)
x = $5.63 or $37.87
We'll use $37.87 because it is the highest price for which no profit is made, and higher price means that we could sell least number of products to earn a certain amount of money.
We are told to approximate to nearest cent. Thus,
Price of widget = $37.87 ≈ $37.9
