A family drove 165 miles in 3 hours. At the same rate, how many miles could they travel in 8 hours

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

First you have to divide 165 by 3, which is 55. and then 55 multiplied by 8 is 440. so in 8 hours, they could travel 440 miles.

One card is randomly selected from a deck of cards find the odds against drawing a seven

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

$\frac{3}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of getting a 7 + Probability of not getting a 7 = 1.

Odds against drawing a 7 = Probability of not getting a 7.

We could calculate the probability of getting a 7 and subtract 1 from it to get the answer.

There a four sevens in a deck of card, one of each kind.

Probability of getting a 7 = $P(7) = \frac{4}{52} = \frac{1}{13}$

$\implies P(not \hspace{1mm} getting \hspace{1mm} a \hspace{1mm} 7) = 1 - P(7)$

$\implies$ P(not getting a 7) $= 1 - \frac{1}{13} = \frac{12}{13}$

What does it mean to analyze a graph and write a story for a function? Explain and give an example.

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To analyse a graph you are meant to determine a general trend, relating the results of an experiment to the hypothesis as well as to form. For example you look at all the values in a line graph and you are yo predict one you are to find its common increase or decrease.

If all possible vertical lines will only cross the relation in one place, then the relation is a function.This works because if a vertical line crosses a relation in more than one place it means that there must be two y values corresponding to one x value in that relation.

A mouse climbs up a well of 86 meters. It advances 14 meters during the night, but during the day it retreats 2. The mouse will

Deffense [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

we assume day and night are equally long.

and the mouse will start at night of day 1.

then, on day 2, it will first retreat 2 meters (during daylight) and then advance 14 meters (at night).

so, on every full day, the mouse will effectively advance 12 meters (-2 + 14 = 12).

with a starting value of 14 (the first night).

so, we are getting an arithmetic sequence

an = an-1 + c

c = 12 in our case.

a1 = 14

a2 = a1 + 12 = 14+12 = 26

a3 = a2 + 12 = a1 + 12 + 12 = 14 + 2×12 = 38

an = a1 + (n-1)×12 = 14 + 12(n-1)

at what n will it reach 86 ?

86 = 14 + 12(n-1) = 14 + 12n - 12 = 2 + 12n

84 = 12n

n = 7

so, on the 7th day the mouse will reach the surface (if we truly count the first starting night day 1 - this is up to your teacher, but I would).

I'm not very good with special right triangles, can someone please help?

Arturiano [62]

All 45 45 90 triangles sides are equal to x, x, and xsqrt2. which is the biggest side. So here x(11) and x(11) are both given. the answer to the x shown on the triangle is xsqrt2
