Answer:
3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 12 window seats and 8 aisle seats giving us a total of 20 seats.
12/20 = 3/5
Therefore, the probably the next person will be assigned a window seat is 3/5.
Answer: A proportional relationship needs to pass through the origin and have a linear (straight) slope. Let me know if you need more specifics.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Solution 1</h3>
The figure (kite) is symmetric and covers half of the area of rectangle with sides 8 units aby 10 units
<u>The area of the rectangle:</u>
<u>The area of the kite:</u>
- A = 1/2*80 = 40 sq. units
<h3>Solution 2</h3>
Split the kite into two triangles and calculate their area and add up
<u>Triangle DCB has b = 8, h = 2 and has area:</u>
- A = 1/2*8*2 = 8 sq. units
<u>Triangle DAB has b = 8, h = 8 and has area:</u>
- A = 1/2*8*8 = 32 sq. units
<u>Total area:</u>
We have to solve this equation:
Third degree polynomials like this one are not easily solved, but this one has a root at x = 0. The let us factorize this polynomial as x times a second degree polynomial:
Now we can find the roots of the quadratic polynomial as:
![\begin{gathered} x=\frac{-(-6)\pm\sqrt[]{(-6)^2-4\cdot1\cdot6}}{2\cdot1} \\ x=\frac{6\pm\sqrt[]{36-24}}{2} \\ x=\frac{6\pm\sqrt[]{12}}{2} \\ x=\frac{6\pm\sqrt[]{4\cdot3}}{2} \\ x=\frac{6\pm2\sqrt[]{3}}{2} \\ x=3\pm\sqrt[]{3} \\ x_1=3-\sqrt[]{3} \\ x_2=3+\sqrt[]{3} \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20x%3D%5Cfrac%7B-%28-6%29%5Cpm%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B%28-6%29%5E2-4%5Ccdot1%5Ccdot6%7D%7D%7B2%5Ccdot1%7D%20%5C%5C%20x%3D%5Cfrac%7B6%5Cpm%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B36-24%7D%7D%7B2%7D%20%5C%5C%20x%3D%5Cfrac%7B6%5Cpm%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B12%7D%7D%7B2%7D%20%5C%5C%20x%3D%5Cfrac%7B6%5Cpm%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B4%5Ccdot3%7D%7D%7B2%7D%20%5C%5C%20x%3D%5Cfrac%7B6%5Cpm2%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B3%7D%7D%7B2%7D%20%5C%5C%20x%3D3%5Cpm%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B3%7D%20%5C%5C%20x_1%3D3-%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B3%7D%20%5C%5C%20x_2%3D3%2B%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B3%7D%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
Then, the solutions to the equation are:
x = 0
x = 3 - √3
x = 3 + √3
Part (a)
<h3>Answer: 0.2</h3>
----------------------------------
Work Shown
It costs $15 to rent a bike for 3 hours. We can write the following ratio below
15 dollars : 3 hours
To represent the connection of the two concepts (dollars connecting with hours)
We want the "15 dollars" to turn into "1 dollar". This is because the phrasing "per dollar" really means "per 1 dollar".
Divide both sides of the ratio by 15 to achieve this goal.
15 dollars : 3 hours
15/15 dollars : 3/15 hours
1 dollar : 1/5 hours
1 dollar : 0.2 hours
0.2 hours : 1 dollar
So we get 0.2 hours per dollar.
As a side note, 0.2 hours = 0.2*60 = 12 minutes.
========================================================
Part (b)
<h3>Answer: 3.38</h3>
----------------------------------
Work Shown
27 pages : 8 minutes
27/8 pages : 8/8 minutes
3.375 pages : 1 minute
3.38 pages : 1 minute
I'm dividing both parts of the original ratio by 8 to turn "8 minutes" into "1 minute" (due to the phrasing "per minute"). Don't forget to round to 2 decimal places.
