Answer:

Each students provides 13 pounds of meal

Step-by-step explanation:

Total students in Ms. Lee class = 220

Total pounds of food collected = 2,860

how many meals did each student provide?

Meals provided by each student = Total pounds of food collected / total number of students

= 2,860 / 220

= 13 pounds

Each students provides 13 pounds of meal

Note: 1.2 pounds of food equals one meal

1.2 pounds : 1 meal = 13 pounds : x meals

1.2/1 = 13/x

1.2 * x = 1 * 13

1.2x = 13

x = 13 / 1.2

= 10.83 meals

Approximately 11 meals to the nearest number

Note:1 kilogram is 2.2 pounds

1 kg : 2.2 pounds = x kg : 13 pounds

1/2.2 = x / 13

1 * 13 = 2.2 * x

13 = 2.2x

x = 13/2.2

= 5.91 kilogram

Approximately x = 6 kilograms

What is the measure of angle 1?
frutty [35]
Sum of all the interior angles = (5-2)x180 = 540°
540 - 100 - 120 - 100 - 90 = 130°
So the last unknown angle in the polygon is 130°

Sum of all the adjacent  angles on a straight line is 180°
Angle 1 = 180 - 130 = 50°

A pet store has 150 goldfish and betta fish altogether. The ratio of goldfish to betta fish is 2:3. How many goldfish does the p
Kipish [7]

The number of goldfish in the pet store is equal to 60 fishes.

  • Let the goldfish be G.
  • Let the betta fish be B.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • Total number of fishes = 150 fishes.
  • Ratio of G to B = 2:3
  • Total ratio= 2 + 3 = 5

To calculate the number of goldfish that the pet store have:

<h3>What is ratio?</h3>

Ratio can be defined as an expression that is used to denote the proportion of two (2) or more quantities with respect to one another and the total quantities.

Mathematically, the number of goldfish in the pet store is given by this expression:

G = \frac{2}{5} \times 150\\\\G=0.4 \times 150

G = 60 fishes.

Answer:

1.  $33,000

2.  $6077.53

3.

a)  2.72 seconds

b)  0.96 seconds

4.  189 square meters

5.

a)  Average Rate of Change = 4 pounds per week, or -4

b)  160 pounds (after 5 weeks)

6.  

Independent Variables = p, A, and H

Dependent Variable = T

141 beats per minute (rounded to nearest whole number)

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

The value of a tractor V(t) decreases over time, t. Its value is given by:

V(t)=55000-5500t

To find value of tractor after 4 years, we would need to substitute "4" into t and calculate. It is shown below:

V(t)=55000-5500t\\V(4)=55000-5500(4)\\V(4) =33000

The value of the tractor after 4 years is <u>$33,000</u>

<u></u>

2.

The value of investment that is growing each year, is given by:

f(n)=5000(1.05)^{n}

Where

5000 is the initial investment (deposit)

1.05 means a 5% growth rate per year

n is the time in years

We want the investment's value after 4 years, so n would be 4. Substituting we get our answer:

f(n)=5000(1.05)^{n}\\f(4)=5000(1.05)^{4}\\f(4)=6077.53

To the nearest cent, the value of the investment would be:

<u>$6077.53</u>

<u></u>

3,

The time it takes of pendulum to make one swing is given by the formula:

T(L)=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{32}}

Where L is the length of the pendulum in feet

a)

If L = 6ft, the time it will take is:

T(6)=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{6}{32}}\\T(6)=2.72

About <u>2.72 seconds</u>

<u></u>

b)

Now, the length is 9 inches, we convert it to feet first:

9/12 = 0.75 feet

So, the time it will take:

T(0.75)=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{0.75}{32}}\\T(0.75)=0.96

So, it will take about <u>0.96 seconds</u>

<u></u>

4.

The area of weed after t days can be modeled by:

A(t)=0.006 \pi t^2

Where t is number of days

Now, we want to find area after 100 days, so let t = 100, we get:

A(t)=0.006 \pi t^2\\A(100)=0.006 \pi (100)^2\\A(100)=188.5

Rounded to nearest sq. m, we have the area to be:

<u>189 square meters</u>

<u></u>

5.

a)

The avg. rate of change is basically how much the program is advertising that someone can loose in a week. It says "4 pounds per week". Since decrease, we give the value of "4" and negative sign So:

<u>Average Rate of Change = 4 pounds per week, or -4</u>

<u></u>

b)

Initial weight is 180 pounds, we know 4 pounds is decreased every week when going through the program course. So, after 5 weeks,

5 * 4 = 20 pounds will be less

So, he will be:

180 - 20 = <u>160 pounds (after 5 weeks)</u>

6.

The Karvonen formula is given as:

T=p(220-A)+H(1-p)

Where

T is target heart rate (in bpm)

p is the percent intensity (expressed as decimal)

A is the age (in yrs)

H is the resting heart rate (in bpm)

We need to identity the independent and dependent variables. Now, lets that a simple example:

y = 2x

Here,

x is the independent variable

y is dependent on x, so y in dependent

Similarly, if you look at the formula, you can see:

p, A, and H are all independent

T depends on them

So,

p, A, H are independent variables

T is the dependent variable

<u>Independent Variables = p, A, and H</u>

<u>Dependent Variable = T</u>

<u></u>

We are given

A = 35

H = 60

p = 65% = 65/100 = 0.65

Now, we want T, lets substitute and find:

T=0.65(220-35)+60(1-0.65)\\T=141.25

<u>The target heart rate should be:  141 beats per minute (rounded to nearest whole number)</u>
