The answer is in the image. We need 3.625 gallons to fill the tank.
Converting all to improper fractions
31/10s = 31/5
5×31s=31×10
155s = 310
s=310/155= 2
20/9=-4/5m
5×20=-4×9m
100=-36m
m=100/-36 = 72 28/36 = 72 7/9
-14/5=-7/2n
-14×2=5×-7n
-28=-35n
n =-28/-35
n=28/35
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Let's call the length and width L and W respectively.
L=2W+8
2W+2L=124
We plug our value of L into the second equation and solve for W.
2W+2(2W+8)=124
We undo the parentheses with the distributive property.
2W+4W+16=124
Combine like terms.
6W+16=124
Subtract 16 from both sides.
6W=108
Divide both sides by 6.
W=18
We plug this W value into the first equation to solve for L.
L=2(18)+8
L=36+8
L=44
So, the length is 44 feet and the width is 18 feet.
Have a wonderful day! :D
Answer:
Michael is running for president. The proportion of voters who favor him is 0.3. A simple random sample of 100 voters is taken.
a)
What is the expected value :: n*p = 100*0.8 = 80
standard deviation:: sqrt(n*p*q) = sqrt(80*0.2) = 16
where q is proportion of voters who do not favor Michael. (q=0.2)
and shape of the sampling distribution is binomial distribution which is approximately a bell shaped.
-------------------------
what is the probability that the number of voters in the sample who will not favor Michael will be more than 16
P(X < 16.0) = P((x - 20) / 4.0) < (16.0 - 20) / 4.0) = P(Z < -1.00) = .1587
P(X > 16.0) = 1 - 0.1587 = 0.8413
When calculating consecutive integers, the smaller number is x and the larger number is (x + 1).
So the equation you can use is x + (x + 1) = 5 + 3(x + 1)
This is because the sum of the consecutive integers are equal to 5 more than 3 times the larger integer.
Now simplify:
x + (x + 1) = 5 + 3(x + 1)
2x + 1 = 5 + 3(x + 1)
2x + 1 = 5 + 3x + 3
2x + 1 = 3x + 8
Now isolate the variable:
2x + 1 = 3x + 8
Subtract 2x from both sides:
1 = x + 8
Subtract 8 from both side:
-7 = x
x = -7
So the smaller number is -7 and the larger number is -6.
Now check your answer:
-7 + (-7 + 1) = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-7 + (-6) = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-7 + (-6) = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-7 - 6 = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-13 = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-13 = 5 + 3(-6)
-13 = 5 + (-18)
-13 = 5 - 18
-13 = -13
This works!
So the integers are -7 and -6.
