A 450-gallon tank full of water is draining at a rate of 20 gallons per minute.

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

A function show the relationship between an independent variable and a dependent variable. The independent variable (input) does not depend on other variables while the dependent variable (output) depend on other variables.

In this question, amount of water in tank is dependent variable and the time taken is the independent variable. Let y represent amount of water in tank and x represent the time it has been draining. Therefore:

a) This can be represented by the equation:

y = 450 -  20x

At 7 minutes (x = 7)

y = 450 - 20(7)

y = 310 gallons

b) For 200 gallons (y = 200), the time taken is:

200 = 450 - 20x

200 - 450 = -20x

-20x = -250

x = -250/-20

x = 12.5 minutes

c) y = 450 - 20x

d) The graph was plotted using geogebra onling graphing calculator.

e) When the tank is empty, y = 0, hence

0 = 450 - 20x

20x = 450

x = 450 / 20

x = 22.5 minutes

Solve each equation for the indicated variable. u = -3a - 3 , for a
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

a = \frac{u + 3}{-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, a. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

PEMDAS is the order of operation and stands for:

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplication

Division

Addition

Subtraction

First, add 3 to both sides of the equation:

u = -3a - 3

u (+3) = -3a - 3 (+3)

u + 3 = -3a

Next, divide -3 from both sides of the equation:

(u + 3)/-3 = (-3a)/-3

a = (u + 3)/-3

a = \frac{u + 3}{-3}  is your answer.

A psychologist obtains a random sample of 2020 mothers in the first trimester of their pregnancy. The mothers are asked to play
leva [86]

Answer:

First of all, we need to determine the system of hypothesis, which must have a null and alternative hypothesis.

In all hypothesis proof procedure, we must work with the null one, rejecting it or accepting it. If we reject the null hypothesis, it will mean that our principal hypothesis is true.

According to the problem, the null hypothesis must be: H_{o} : u = 100; because it says that 100 is the normal mean that is used.

The alternative hypothesis must be: H_{a} : u > 100; because the question is asking if there's enough evidence to say that they children have a higher IQ than 100.

Then, we must calculate the P-value, which is the probability value that we are gonna use to accept or reject the null hypothesis. This P-value we can calculate it with the formula: Z=\frac{x-u}{\frac{o}{\sqrt{n} } }; where x is the sample mean, u is the hypothetical mean parameter, o is the sample deviation and n is the sample.

Extracting all values from the problem: x = 104.3; u = 100; o = 14 and n = 20.

Applying all values to the formula: Z=\frac{104.3 - 100}{\frac{14}{\sqrt{20} } } = \frac{4.3}{\frac{14}{ 4.5} }=\frac{4.3}{3.1}=1.4

Then, this Z-value will give us the P-value by using the Z-table with the 0.05 level of significance. In table attached, we can see that the result is 0.9265. However, the P-value is 1 - 0.9265 = 0.735. We need to do this subtraction because, the result 0.9265 belong to the bigger area (as it's shown is the image in blue colour), and we need the smaller area, which belong to the 0.05 level of significance.

<em>In this problems, if the P-value is more than the level of significance, the null hypothesis is accepted. If the P-value is less than the level of significance the null hypothesis is rejected.</em>

Therefore, there is no enough evidence to say that the sample children have higher IQs, because the P-value is higher than the level of significance. (0.735>0.05).

3/38-3/7<br> 2+1/35<br> 3/56+3/2
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

87/56

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

3/56 + 3/2

Put 3/56 + 3/2 over the common denominator 56. 3/56 + 3/2 = 3/56 + (28×3)/56:

3/56 + (28×3)/56

28×3 = 84:

3/56 + 84/56

3/56 + 84/56 = (3 + 84)/56:

(3 + 84)/56

3 + 84 = 87:

Answer:  87/56
