Nutka1998 [239]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

3,000 words

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Emilio cay type 850 words in 17 minutes

Remember that

1\ h=60\ min

so

using proportion

Find out how many words can Emilio type in 60 minutes (one hour)

Let

x ---> the number of words

\frac{850}{17}\ \frac{words}{minutes} =\frac{x}{60}\ \frac{words}{minutes}\\\\x=60(850)/17\\\\x= 3,000\ words

Part A: Solve –mk – 90 > 85 for m. Show your work.
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

A) m < -175/k and B) 3c/5 - 11

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Add 90 to both sides. -mk > 175.

Next, divide both sides by -k. Because you divide by a negative, don't forget to reverse the sign!

m < -175/k.

B) Subtract 3c from both sides.

-5f = 55 - 3c.

Now multiply both sides by -1/5.

f = 3c/5 - 11

The measures of two complementary angles have a ratio of 3 : 2. What is the measure of the larger angle?
Mkey [24]

<em>Question:</em>

The measures of two complementary angles have a ratio of 3 : 2. What is the measure of the larger angle?

—————

<em>Solution:</em>

Call those two angles  x  and  y, where  x  is the larger one.

If they are complementary, then their sum equals  90°:

x + y = 90°      (i)


Also, the ratio between  x  and  y  is  3 : 2, so

  x           3
——  =  ——
  y           2


Product of the extremes = product of the means:

2x = 3y

2x – 3y = 0        (ii)


Now, just solve this system of equations:

  x  +  y = 90°         (i)
2x – 3y =   0          (ii)


Solve it with elimination. Since you want to know the value of the larger angle, which is  x, then eliminate the variable  y  by doing the following:

Multiply the equation  (i)  by  3,

3x + 3y = 270°        (iii)
2x – 3y =     0          (ii)


then add both equations, so you cancel out the variable  y:

3x + 2x + 3y – 3y = 270° + 0

3x + 2x = 270°

5x = 270°

         270°
x  =  ———
           5

x = 54°    <———  this is the measure of the larger angle.


I hope this helps. =)

The set of life spans of an appliance is normally distributed with a mean mc013-1.jpg = 48 months and a standard deviation mc013
elena55 [62]
The life span would be 24 months.

The formula for z-scores is:
z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}

Using the information we're given we have:
-3=\frac{X-48}{8}

Multiply both sides by 8 to cancel it:
-3(8) = ((X-48)/8)*8
-24 = X-48

Add 48 to both sides:
-24+48 = X-48+48
24=X
