Answer:

5.6 quarts

Step-by-step explanation:

x + .15(8) = .50(8+x)

x + 1.2 = 4

.50x + 1.2 = 4

.50x = 2.8

x = 2.8/.50

x = 5.6 quarts

Which two tables represent the same function?
topjm [15]

Answer:

The 1st and the 5th tables represent the same function

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- There are five tables of functions, two of them are equal

- To find the two equal function lets find their equations

- The form of the equation of a line whose endpoints are (x1 , y1) and

  (x2 , y2) is \frac{y-y_{1}}{x-x_{1}}=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

* Lets make the equation of each table

# (x1 , y1) = (4 , 8) and (x2 , y2) = (6 , 7)

∵ x1 = 4 , x2 = 6 and y1 = 8 , y2 = 7

∴ \frac{y-8}{x-4}=\frac{7-8}{6-4}

∴ \frac{y-8}{x-4}=\frac{-1}{2}

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 2(y - 8) = -1(x - 4) ⇒ simplify

∴ 2y - 16 = -x + 4 ⇒ add x and 16 for two sides

∴ x + 2y = 20 ⇒ (1)

# (x1 , y1) = (4 , 5) and (x2 , y2) = (6 , 4)

∵ x1 = 4 , x2 = 6 and y1 = 5 , y2 = 4

∴ \frac{y-5}{x-4}=\frac{4-5}{6-4}

∴ \frac{y-5}{x-4}=\frac{-1}{2}

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 2(y - 5) = -1(x - 4) ⇒ simplify

∴ 2y - 10 = -x + 4 ⇒ add x and 10 for two sides

∴ x + 2y = 14 ⇒ (2)

# (x1 , y1) = (2 , 8) and (x2 , y2) = (8 , 5)

∵ x1 = 2 , x2 = 8 and y1 = 8 , y2 = 5

∴ \frac{y-8}{x-2}=\frac{5-8}{8-2}

∴ \frac{y-8}{x-2}=\frac{-3}{6}=====\frac{y-8}{x-2}=\frac{-1}{2}

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 2(y - 8) = -1(x - 2) ⇒ simplify

∴ 2y - 16 = -x + 2 ⇒ add x and 16 for two sides

∴ x + 2y = 18 ⇒ (3)

# (x1 , y1) = (2 , 10) and (x2 , y2) = (6 , 14)

∵ x1 = 2 , x2 = 6 and y1 = 10 , y2 = 14

∴ \frac{y-10}{x-2}=\frac{14-10}{6-2}

∴ \frac{y-10}{x-2}=\frac{4}{4}======\frac{y-10}{x-2}=1

- By using cross multiplication

∴ (y - 10) = (x - 2)

∴ y - 10 = x - 2 ⇒ add 2 and subtract y in the two sides

∴ -8 = x - y ⇒ switch the two sides

∴ x - y = -8 ⇒ (4)

# (x1 , y1) = (2 , 9) and (x2 , y2) = (8 , 6)

∵ x1 = 2 , x2 = 8 and y1 = 9 , y2 = 6

∴ \frac{y-9}{x-2}=\frac{6-9}{8-2}

∴ \frac{y-9}{x-2}=\frac{-3}{6}======\frac{y-9}{x-2}=\frac{-1}{2}

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 2(y - 9) = -1(x - 2) ⇒ simplify

∴ 2y - 18 = -x + 2 ⇒ add x and 18 for two sides

∴ x + 2y = 20 ⇒ (5)

- Equations (1) and (5) are the same

∴ The 1st and the 5th tables represent the same function

The frequency distribution representing the number of frequent flier miles accumulated by employees at Brumley Statistical Consu
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

a. How many employees accumulated less than 3,000 miles?

The number of employees accumulated less than 3,000 miles= 5

So the number of employees accumulated less than 3,000 miles is 5.

d. Based on the cumulative frequency polygon, about 75% of the employees accumulated how many miles or less?

8.5 thousands of miles, found by starting at 75 percent on the vertical axis on the right, over to the polygon and then down to the horizontal axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given frequency distribution representing the number of frequent flier miles accumulated by the employees in a company.                        

Frequent Flier Miles (000) Frequency

0                     up to 3 5

3                      up to 6 12

6                      up to 9 23

9                     up to 12 8

12                   up to 15 2

Total                       50

a. How many employees accumulated less than 3,000 miles?

The number of employees accumulated less than 3,000 miles= 5

So the number of employees accumulated less than 3,000 miles is 5.

b. Convert the frequency distribution to a cumulative frequency distribution.

We make the cumulative frequency distribution from the frequency distribution by adding up a frequency and all other frequencies below it.                

Frequent Flier Miles Frequency Cumulative frequency

0 up to 3                                5 5

3 up to 6                                      12 17

6 up to 9                                      23 40

9 up to 12                               8 48

12 up to 15                               2 50

Total 50

d. Based on the cumulative frequency polygon, about 75% of the employees accumulated how many miles or less?

8.5 thousands of miles, found by starting at 75 percent on the vertical axis on the right, over to the polygon and then down to the horizontal axis.

A piggy bank contains 80 nickels and dimes the value of the coins is 5.15
dimaraw [331]
Answer: the amount of dimes is $1.15 this is also equivalent to 11 dimes and an extra nickel.

Explanation:

80 nickels =$4.00
$5.15-$4.00= $1.15
11 dimes= $1.10
1 nickel= $0.05
$1.10+$0.05= $1.15


hope this helps! :)
