If you had a block of each type of wood with the same dimensions, how would their weights compare?

1 answer:

6 0

Their weights would be different from another, because of the mass of the wood. Sure, they may have the same dimensions, but does a square of feathers weigh as much as a square of metal?

The two numbers are 3 and 5, because 3 is the product of 3(1) = 1, and 3(5) = 15. Which is divisible by 5. Both 3 and 5 are less than 10.

PLEASE HELP !!!!!!! Jordan got a new money bank for his birthday with $20 inside. He puts part of his weekly allowance in his ba

kupik [55]

Answer:

Slope of the function is $=3.75$ ,Y-intercept $=20$ .

The function is $y=3.75(x)+20$ with initial value $=20$ ,Jordan puts $\$3.75$ each week andthe amount saved by Jordan after $52$ week $=215\$$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

To understand the slope and y-intercept lets assign $x$ as number of weeks and $y$ as the money saved by Jordan.

Jordan is already having a sum of $\$20$ inside the money bank so in $0$ week the amount is $\$20$ can be written as $(x,y) =(0,20)$ in coordinate form.

SImilarly

We have $(x,y) =(0,20)$ and $(x_1,y_1) =(25,113.75)$

Part A:

The function is $y=m(x)+b$

From point-slope form,we have slope (m)

and $m=\frac{y_1-y}{x_1-x}$ ,plugging the values of the points.

$m=\frac{113.75-20}{25-0}=3.75$

Y-intercept of this function is the constant term or the money of $\$20$ that is already inside the money bank.

We can also calculate y-intercept by arranging the function as $b=y-m(x)$ choosing any $(x_1,y_1) = (25,113.75)$ coordinate and here $b$ is the y-intercept.

The result will be same.

Part B:

The equation $y=3.75(x)$ can represent the function described.

And the initial value is the y-intercept $=\$20$

Jordan puts $3.75$ in his bank each week.

After $52$ week the amount saved by Jordan ,here $x=52$ ,as the x-variable is the number of weeks.

Plugging the value of $x=52$ in $y=m(x)+b$ where $m=3.75$ so the equation becomes $y=3.75(x)+20$

$y=3.75(x)+20 =3.75(52)+20=\$215$

So basically the function is $y=3.75(x)+20$ and the amount saved by Jordan after $52$ week $=215\$$ .

For a certain candy, 20% of the pieces are yellow, 15% are red, 20% are blue, 20% are green, and the rest are brown. a

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the question we are given the percentages of each of the types of candies in the bag except for brown. Since the sum of all the percentages equals 75% and brown is the remaining percent then we can calculate that brown is (100-75 = 25%) 25% of the bag. Now we can show the probabilities of getting a certain type of candy by placing the percentages over the total percentage (100%).

Brown: $\frac{25}{100}$
Yellow or Blue: $\frac{20}{100} +\frac{20}{100} = \frac{40}{100}$ ....add the numerators

Not Green: $\frac{80}{100}$ .... since the sum of all the rest is 80%

Stiped: $\frac{25}{100}$ .... there are 0 striped candies.

Assuming the ratios/percentages of the candies stay the same having an infinite amount of candy will not affect the probabilities. That being said in order to calculate consecutive probability of getting 3 of a certain type in a row we have to multiply the probabilities together. This is calculated by multiplying the numerators with numerators and denominators with denominators.
