This is simple algebra :)

First, we can write the question as an algebraic equation.

Given that Doug spent 40 more hours than Laura, we can represent Laura as (x) and Doug as (x+40).

"Doug and Laura spent a combined 250 hours." So we can write this as

(x) + (x+40) = 250

Now simplify:

2x + 40 = 250

Solve x by subtracting 40 from both sides of the equation:

2x = 210

Therefore:

x = 210/2

= 105

So Laura (x) spent 105 hours!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Left Frame

f(x) = x^2 - 6x + 8

f(x) = (x - 2)(x - 4)

The question is a fancy way of asking you to represent the quadratic formula in factored form.

Second from left Frame

This is a problem just to see if you really do know what f(g(3)) equals.

You are not asked to figure out what the function is exactly -- just what it does.

Start with g(3) = 2. What you do is just put that in the brackets for g(3) in the combined function f(g(3)) = f(2) because g(3) =2.

f(2) = 3. That's given. So the final answer is f(2) = 3

Center Frame

x^2 + y^2 + 4x- 2y = - 1  

You have to complete the square twice.

( x^2 + 4x + (4/2)^2 ) = (x + 2)^2

(y^2 - 2y + (-2/2)^2 ) = (y - 1)^2

So The next thing you have to realize is that you have added 4 on from the top completed Square and 1 from the bottom completed square.

Ultimately it will look like this.

(x + 2)^2 + (y - 1)^2 = - 1 + 4 + 1 = 4

That 4 on the right = r^2

To find r, you need to take the square root of 4

sqrt 4 = 2

radius = 2

Second from the Right

What this question is saying is that when x = 3, y = 6. Since in loose terms y and f(x) mean the same thing, what you get is

3(3)^2 -b*3 + 12 = 6

27 - 3b + 12 = 6

39 - 3b = 6              Subtract 39 from both sides.

-3b = 6 - 39             Combine

-3b = -33                  Divide by - 3

-3b/-3 = -33/-3         Combine

b = 11

Right Frame

Let Doug = D

Let Laura = L

The two equations are

D + L = 250

D = L + 40                Put the second equation into the first.

L+40 + L = 250        Combine on the left

2L + 40 = 250          Subtract 40

2L = 250 - 40           Combine

2L = 210                    Divide by 2

L = 210/2                   Combine

L = 105

So if L = 105 Doug will be 40 more

D= 105 + 40

D =  145

Taylor's family took a road trip to Mount Rushmore. Taylor slept through the last 21% of the trip. If Taylor fell asleep after t
lesantik [10]

The total length of the trip is the number of miles in the trip

The total length of the trip is 974 miles

<h3>How to determine the total length?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Proportion of sleep = 21%
  • Distance awake = 711 miles

If Taylor sleeps for 21% of the trip, then Taylor was awake for 79% of the trip

Represent the total length of the trip with T.

So, we have:

73% * T = 711 miles

Divide both sides by 73%

T = 974 miles

Hence, the total length of the trip is 974 miles

Students at Central School were surveyed regarding lunch choices. Of the students that responded, exactly 1/3 wanted more fresh
ioda
If 1/3 of the students wanted more fruits and veggies, then that means that 2/3 did not. And of that 2/3, 1/8 of them wanted more seafood. \frac{2}{3} *  \frac{1}{8} =  \frac{1}{12} This means that 1/12 of all the students surveyed wanted more seafood and 1/3 wanted more fruits and veggies. The least common multiple of 3 and 12 (or the LCD of the two fractions) would be 12.
Multiplying by 12, we figure out that 4 of them would have wanted more fruits and veggies and only 1 lonely kid wanted more seafood.
Final answer : 12

What is the expectation for a binomial distribution with p = 0.5 and n = 8?
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

P = probability of success = 0.5

n = number of trials = 8

The expected value of a binomial distribution with probability of success P and number of trials n is defined by:

E(n, p) = n * p

Therefore, expected value when P = 0.5 and n = 8

E(8, 0.5) = 8 × 0.5

= 4

The expected value of the binomial distribution is 4
