Jake is using a horse trailer to take his horses to his new ranch. 1 Horse= 1,200 lb Trailer= 2,700 lb Jake's truck can tow a ma

Kitty [74]

Answer:

Jack can take only 1 horse on his trailer to be towed by the truck without going over the maximum weight the truck.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Weight of 1 horse = 1,200 lb

Weight of trailer = 2,700 lb

Jacks'truck can tow a maximum of 5000 pounds.

To find the maximum number of horses Jack can take in his trailer without going over the maximum weight his truck can tow.

Solution:

Let the maximum number of horses that Jack can take be = $x$

Using unitary method to find weight of $x$ horses.

If 1 horse weights = 1,200 lb

Then $x$ horses will weight in lbs = $1,200\times x = 1,200x$

Total weight of horses and trailer in lbs = $1200x+2700$

Since the maximum weight the truck can tow = 5,000 lb, so the inequality can be given as:

$1200x+2700\leq5000$

Subtracting both sides by 2700.

$1200x+2700-2700\leq5000-2700$

$1200x\leq2300$

Dividing both sides by 1200.

$\frac{1200x}{1200}\leq\frac{2300}{1200}$

$x\leq1.91$

From the inequality solution for $x$ , we can conclude that Jack can take only 1 horse on his trailer to be towed by the truck without going over the maximum weight the truck.

Why don't we measure spread about the mean by simply averaging x − x , the deviations of individual data values from their mean?

skad [1K]

Answer:

Because this spread will add up to zero

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean defines the center of the data. Some values are below this center and some values are above this center.

For the values which are below the center (i.e. less than the mean), when mean is subtracted from these values, this results in negative numbers.

For the values which are above the center(i.e. greater than the mean), when mean is subtracted from these values, this results in positive numbers.

When these negative and positive numbers are summed together, as it is, they cancel out each other, leaving an answer equal to zero, which would be meaningless. As a spread of 0 would mean all data values are the same, when infact they aren't.

To avoid this, the difference of mean from the data value is squared, so that we can get all positive values, and then these values are added up together to calculate the spread of the data.

Conclusion:

The average of deviations of individual data from the mean will result in answer equal to zero, as a result they are squared first before finding the average.

In a parallelogram ABCD, angle a=70, find 2angle d

Natali [406]

Answer:

D = 110

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

In a parallelogram ABCD,

∠A =70∘

∠A + ∠B = 180∘.. (supplementary angles)

∠B = 180∘ – 70∘ = 110∘

∠A = ∠C and ∠B = ∠D.. (Opposite angles of parallelogram)

∠A = 70∘, ∠B = 110∘, ∠C = 70∘, ∠D = 110
