Answer: -13w - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
-6w + (-8) + 1 + (-7w)
Combine the like terms
-8 + 1 = -7
-6w + (-7) + (-7w)
-6w + (-7w) = -13w
-13w + (-7)
However, because adding a negative number is the same as subtracting the number as a positive, you can just make it -13w - 7
Answer: depth = 5 ft
width = 10 ft
length = 40 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
d = depth
width = d + 5
length = d + 36
Volume = length x width x depth = 2000 cf
d(d+35)(d+5) = 2000
d(
+ 40d + 175) = 2000
d^3 + 40d^2 + 175d = 2000
rewrite in standard cubic polynomial form : ax3 + bx2 + cx + d = 0
d^3 + 40(d^2) + 175d - 2000 = 0
Find the roots of the cubic polynomial:
factors of 2000 are 1, 5, 10 15, 20, etc.
Try the factor 5 first by plugging it in the equation:
5^3 + 40(5^2) + 175(5) - 2000 = 0
Lucky break! No need to find the other roots because they will be negative, and you can't have a negative value for a pool depth.
So, depth = 5 ft
width = 5 + 5 = 10 ft
length = 5 + 35 = 40 ft
Answer:
a) A student travelling to school on public transport: 15/52 or 0.231
b) A student walking to school: 16/52 or 0.308
c) A student not cycling to school: 43/52 or 0.827
Step-by-step explanation:
Total people = 52
Travel Method Frequency
Public Transport 12
Car 15
Cycle 9
Walk 16
Find the relative frequency of.
The formula used will be: 
a) A student travelling to school on public transport:
Given Frequency: 12
Size of sample space: 52
Apply formula: 
Fraction = 12/52
Decimal = 0.231
b) A student walking to school
Given Frequency: 16
Size of sample space. 52
Apply formula: 
Fraction = 16/52
Decimal = 0.308
c) A student not cycling to school.
We will consider all students except those who cycle.
12+15+16 = 43
Given Frequency: 43
Size of sample space. 52
Apply formula: 
Fraction = 43/52
Decimal = 0.827
