A restaurant wishes to have at least one server for every 12 tables. Each of the tables in the restaurant seats four guests. If

x is the number of servers and y is the number of guests, which inequality represents the restaurant’s desired relationship of the number of servers to the number of guests?

X = number of servers
y = number of guests

$\text {number of guest per table = } 4$ <span>

</span> $\text {number of tables = } \dfrac{y}{4}$
<span>
</span> $\text {number of servers needed = } \dfrac{y}{4} \div 12$ <span>

</span> $\text {number of servers needed = } \dfrac{y}{4} \times \dfrac{1}{12}$

$\text {number of servers needed = } \dfrac{y}{48}$

There must be at least 1 server for every 12 tables:
$x \geq \dfrac{y}{48}$

Find the value of 9x+4y when x=4 and y=-3

jasenka [17]

Answer:

you substitute x for 4 and so you multiply 9 x 4 which will give you 36 and then you have to add four times y so you substitute y for -3 and you add 36 - 12 which will give you 24

Light travels about 180 million kilometers in 10 minutes. How far does it travel in one minute? How far does it travel in one se

astraxan [27]

Answer:

18 million kilometers in one min. and 0.3 million kilometers in one second

Step-by-step explanation:

so the one min. is easy because all you have to do is take 180 and divide it by 10 and you get 18 million kilometers in one min. and then you would take 18 and divide it by 60 and you would get 0.3 million kilometers in one second

Item 20 You are riding a roller coaster when a shoe falls off your foot. The function y=200−16t2 represents the height y (in fee

AleksandrR [38]

Assuming you mean y = 200 - 16t^2, we have all the required information needed to solve this problem. The y-value is the height of the building and the t-value represents the number of seconds after the shoe fell off.

Since we are trying to solve <em>for t</em>, we will be using our y-value. The problem states that we landed on a building with a height of 31 feet. We can plug this into the y-value, since that is what y is defined as (the height of the building).

Now we have:
31 = 200 - 16t^2

We can solve this to find t:
-169 = -16t^2
169 = 16t^2
10.5625 = t^2
3.25, -3.25 = t

We have found two answers for t. However, the negative value is not a solution because we can not have a negative number of seconds. Thus, 3.25 is the only value of t which works for this problem.

Since t is the value we are trying to find, we have our answer. The shoe hits the building after 3.25 seconds.

The proportion of students who own a cell phone on college campuses across the country has increased tremendously over the past

galina1969 [7]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the uploaded image

Answer:

1 ) The correct option B

2) The correct option is C

3) The correct option is C

4) The correct option is C

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The proportion that own a cell phone is $p = 0.90$

The sample size is n = 15

Generally the appropriate distribution for X is mathematically represented as

$X \ is \ B( n , p )$

So

$X \ is \ B( 15 , 0.90 )$

Generally the number students that own a cell phone in a simple random sample of 15 students is mathematically represented as

$\mu = n * p$

$\mu = 15 * 0.90$

$\mu = 13.5$

Generally the standard deviation of the number of students who own a cell phone in a simple random sample of 15 students is mathematically represented as

$\sigma = \sqrt{ n * p * q }$

Where q is mathematically evaluated as

$q = 1- p$

$q = 1- 0.90$

$q = 0.10$

$\sigma = \sqrt{ 15 * 0.90 * 0.10 }$

$\sigma = 1.16$

Generally the probability that all students in a simple random sample of 15 students own a cell phone is mathematically represented as

$P(X = 15) = \left 15} \atop {}} \right.C_{15} * p^{15} * q^{15 - 15}$

$P(X = 15) = \left 15} \atop {}} \right.C_{15} * (0.90)^{15} * (0.10 )^{15 - 15}$

From the combination calculator is $\left 15} \atop {}} \right.C_{15} = 1$

$P(X = 15) = 1 * 0.205891 * 1$

$P(X = 15) = 0.206$

This question is not correctly written.

Complete Question

Select all equations that can represent the question: "How many groups of 4/5 are in 1?" A ?⋅1=4/5? Times 1 is equal to 4 fifths B 1⋅4/5=?1 times 4 fifths is equal to ? C 4/5÷1=?4 fifths divided by 1 is equal to ? D ?⋅4/5=1? Times 4 fifths is equal to 1 E 1÷4/5=?1 divided by 4 fifths is equal to ?

Answer:

D ?⋅4/5=1 = ? Times 4 fifths is equal to

E 1÷4/5=? = 1 divided by 4 fifths is equal to

Step-by-step explanation:

How many groups of 4/5 are in 1?

The operation used to solve this is that Division operation.

Hence, we solve it by saying:

1 ÷ 4/5 = ?

= 1× 5/4 = ?

5/4 = ?

Cross Multiply

5 = 4 × ?

? = 5/4

The equations that can represent the question: is

Option D ?⋅4/5=1 = ? Times 4 fifths is equal to

Option E 1÷4/5=? = 1 divided by 4 fifths is equal to
