Answer:

a=0

Step-by-step explanation:

3(a+4)-5(a-2)=22

1)Distribute.

3a+12-5a+10=22

2)Add like values.

-2a+22=22

3)Simplify

-2a=0

4)Divide by -2a

a=0

Kelly has a rock garden with a length of 6 feet. She constructs a scale model of the rock garden using the
Annette [7]

Answer:

  • (a) 3 inches

  • (b)  Her scale model drawing will not fit on a piece of paper that is 8.5 inches by 7 inches because the dimensions are not proportional to the scale.

Explanation:

(a) What is the length of the garden in her model? Show your work, including your proportion

<u>1. Scale</u>:

  • model length / real length = 1 inch / 2 feet

<u>2. Proportion</u>:

Naming x the model length:

  • 1 inch / 2 feet = x / 6 feet

Cross multiply:

  • 1 inch × 6 feet = 2 feet × x

Divide both sides by x:

  • x = 1 inch × 6 feet / 2 feet = 3 inch.

Answer: 3 inches

(b) If the width is 5 inches for the scale model and the scale is still 1 inch to 2 feet, will her scale model drawing fit on a piece of paper that is 8.5 inches by 7 inches? Why or why not?​

Both the width and the length must use the same scale, thus the corresponding sides of the scale model and the drawing must be proportional.

In the model the ratio of the length to the width is 3 inch / 5 inch

In the paper the ratio of the length to the width is 8.5 inch / 7 inch

Hence, you can see that in the model the length (mumerator of the fraction) is less than the width (denominator) while in the paper it is the opposite. Bieng the two ratios different, they are not proportional, and you conclude that her scale model drawing will not fit on a piece of paper that is 8.5 inches by 7 inches.

The average maximum monthly temperature in Campinas, Brazil is 29.9 degrees Celsius. The standard deviation in maximum monthly t
velikii [3]

Answer:

3.84% of months would have a maximum temperature of 34 degrees or higher

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 29.9, \sigma = 2.31

What percentage of months would have a maximum temperature of 34 degrees or higher?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 34. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{34 - 29.9}{2.31}

Z = 1.77

Z = 1.77 has a pvalue of 0.9616

1 - 0.9616 = 0.0384

3.84% of months would have a maximum temperature of 34 degrees or higher
