Diane received a $80 dollar gift card for a coffee store. She used it in buying some coffee that cost $8.14 per pound. After buy

ing the coffee, she had $39.30 left on her card. How many pounds of coffee did she buy?

5 pounds
Because you have to subtract $80 from $39.30 and when you do that you get $40.70. Then you divide that by the $8.14 per pound and that gives you your answer.

I hope I helped

Take 80.00 and subtract the 39.30 she still has left on her gift card.
That means that she spent $40.70.
Take 40.70 and divide it by 8.14 per pound of coffee and you get 5.
So, she bought 5 pounds of coffee

at the car wash fundraiser jenna's team washed 14 cars in 45 minutes. if they keep up at that rate, how many cars can the team w

s2008m [1.1K]

You can write it as a proportion and then solve the proportion.
(2.5 hours is 150 minutes)
14 cars x cars
--------------- = -------------------
45 minutes 150 minutes

Then solve.

x=46.6666666
So that is about 47 cars

Answer:

$26.5265$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Confidence Interval</u>

When the population standard deviation $\sigma$ is known, the formula for a confidence interval for a population mean $\bar x$ is:

$\displaystyle \bar x \pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

Where n is the sample size and z is the corresponding z-value from the standard normal distribution for the selected confidence level. The value of z for a 95% confidence interval is z=1.96. The rest of the values are

$\bar x=28.2,\ \sigma=2.7, \ n=10$

Calculating the confidence interval

$\displaystyle 28.2 \pm 1.96\frac{2.7}{\sqrt{10}}$

$\displaystyle 28.2 \pm 1.6735$

Or, equivalently

$26.5265$

A cone with a diameter of 12 inches has a volume of 640.88 cubic inches. find the height of the cone

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

The height of the cone is $17\ in$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of a cone is equal to

$V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h$

In this problem we have

$r=12/2=6\ in$ ----> the radius is half the diameter

$V=640.88\ in^{3}$

assume $\pi=3.14$

substitute the values and solve for h

$640.88=\frac{1}{3}(3.14)(6)^{2}h$

$h=640.88*3/((3.14)(36))=17\ in$

1-What is the sum of the series? ∑j=152j Enter your answer in the box.

tangare [24]

Answer:

Please see the Step-by-step explanation for the answers

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

∑ $\left \ {{5} \atop {j=1}} \right.$ 2j

The sum of series from j=1 to j=5 is:

∑ = 2(1) + 2(2) + 2(3) + 2(4) + 2(5)

= 2 + 4 + 6 + 8 + 10

∑ = 30

2)

This question is not given clearly so i assume the following series that will give you an idea how to solve this:

∑ $\left \ {{4} \atop {k=1}} \right.$ 2k²

The sum of series from k=1 to j=4 is:

∑ = 2(1)² + 2(2)² + 2(3)² + 2(4)²

= 2(1) + 2(4) + 2(9) + 2(16)

= 2 + 8 + 18 + 32

∑ = 60

∑ $\left \ {{4} \atop {k=1}} \right.$ (2k)²

∑ = (2*1)² + (2*2)² + (2*3)² + (2*4)²

= (2)² + (4)² + (6)² + (8)²

= 4 + 16 + 36 + 64

∑ = 120

∑ $\left \ {{4} \atop {k=1}} \right.$ (2k)²- 4

∑ = (2*1)²-4 + (2*2)²-4 + (2*3)²-4 + (2*4)²-4

= (2)²-4 + (4)²-4 + (6)²-4 + (8)²-4

= (4-4) + (16-4) + (36-4) + (64-4)

= 0 + 12 + 32 + 60

∑ = 104

∑ $\left \ {{4} \atop {k=1}} \right.$ 2k²- 4

∑ = 2(1)²-4 + 2(2)²-4 + 2(3)²-4 + 2(4)²-4

= 2(1)-4 + 2(4)-4 + 2(9)-4 + 2(16)-4

= (2-4) + (8-4) + (18-4) + (32-4)

= -2 + 4 + 14 + 28

∑ = 44

3)

∑ $\left \ {{6} \atop {k=3}} \right.$ (2k-10)

∑ = (2×3−10) + (2×4−10) + (2×5−10) + (2×6−10)

= (6-10) + (8-10) + (10-10) + (12-10)

= -4 + -2 + 0 + 2

∑ = -4

4)

1+1/2+1/4+1/8+1/16+1/32+1/64

This is a geometric sequence where first term is 1 and the common ratio is 1/2 So

a = 1

This can be derived as

1/2/1 = 1/2 * 1 = 1/2

1/4/1/2 = 1/4 * 2/1 = 1/2

1/8/1/4 = 1/8 * 4/1 = 1/2

1/16/1/8 = 1/16 * 8/1 = 1/2

1/32/1/16 = 1/32 * 16/1 = 1/2

1/64/1/32 = 1/64 * 32/1 = 1/2

Hence the common ratio is r = 1/2

So n-th term is:

$ar^{n-1}$ = $1(\frac{1}{2})^{n-1}$

So the answer that represents the series in sigma notation is:

∑ $\left \ {{7} \atop {j=1}} \right.$ $(\frac{1}{2})^{j-1}$

5)

−3+(−1)+1+3+5

This is an arithmetic sequence where the first term is -3 and the common difference is 2. So

a = 1

This can be derived as

-1 - (-3) = -1 + 3 = 2

1 - (-1) = 1 + 1 = 2

3 - 1 = 2

5 - 3 = 2

Hence the common difference d = 2

The nth term is:

a + (n - 1) d

= -3 + (n−1)2

= -3 + 2(n−1)

= -3 + 2n - 2

= 2n - 5

So the answer that represents the series in sigma notation is:

∑ $\left \ {{5} \atop {j=1}} \right.$ (2j−5)
