Answer:

Use the distributive property and expand 28, then distribute the 4 to 20 and the 4 to 8. Then you have 18 + 80 + 32. Use commutative property to reverse the order of 32 and 80 so that 18 and 32 are friendly numbers to add.

An old house has a basement stairway that has steps with 7.25 inch vertical risers and 7 inch horizontal treads. What is the slo

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

1.04 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Old house has a basement stairways with 7.25 inch vertical riser and 7 inch horizontal treads.

Remember; horizontal treads is known as run in steps.

Now, calculating the slope of the stairways.

Formula: $Slope= \frac{Rise}{Run}$

Rise= 7.25 inch

Run= 7 inch.

Subtituting the value in the formula

Slope= $\frac{7.25}{7}= 1.0357 \approx 1.04$ (∵ Round to two decimal)

∴ Slope of stairways is 1.04.

A population has the following characteristics. (a) A total of 75% of the population survives the first year. Of that 75%, 25% s

Artemon [7]

Answer:

$= \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1344\\84\\28\end{array}\right] \left \begin{array}{ccc}{0 \ \leq age \leq 1 }\\{ 1 \ \leq age \leq 2 }\\{2 \ \leq age \leq 3}\end{array}\right$

i.e after the first year ;

there 1344 members in the first age class

84 members for the second age class; and

28 members for the third age class

Step-by-step explanation:

We can deduce that the age distribution vector x represents the number of population members for each age class; Given that in each class of age there are 112 members present.

The current age distribution vector is as follows:

$x = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&2\\1&1&2\\1&1&2\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}{0 \ \leq age \leq 1 }\\{ 0 \ \leq age \leq 2 }\\{0 \ \leq age \leq 3}\end{array}\right]$

Also , the age transition matrix is as follows:

$L = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&6&3\\0.75&0&0 \\0&0.25&0\end{array}\right]$

After 1 year ; the age distribution vector will be :

$x_2 =Lx_1 = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&6&3\\0.75&0&0 \\0&0.25&0\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&2\\1&1&2\\1&1&2\end{array}\right]$

$= \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1344\\84\\28\end{array}\right] \left \begin{array}{ccc}{0 \ \leq age \leq 1 }\\{ 1 \ \leq age \leq 2 }\\{2 \ \leq age \leq 3}\end{array}\right$
