Zina goes to the store to buy markers. An 8-pack of markers costs $10.99, but it does not have the color that she wants. A 12-pa

ck of markers has the right color, but the price label below is damaged, and she can't read the total price. Zina can see that the 12-pack has the same unit cost as the 8-pack. Write a proportion that Zina can use to determine how much the 12-pack of markers will cost. Use C to represent the cost of the 12-pack of markers.

Using proportions, it is found that the cost of the 12-pack of markers, in dollars, is of:

$C = \frac{10.99 \times 12}{8} = 16.5$

<h3>Proportions:</h3>

This question is solved by <em>proportions</em>, using a rule of three.

The cost of a 8-pack of markers is of $10.99. What is the cost of a 12-pack?

The <em>rule of three</em> is:

8 pack - $10.99

12-pack - $C

Applying cross multiplication:

$8C = 10.99 \times 12$

$C = \frac{10.99 \times 12}{8} = 16.5$

-8=2/5t solve for t please!

Natali [406]

Your answer here is t = -20

-8 = 2/5t
Equation

2/5 = 0.4
2 divided by 5 is 0.4

-8 / 0.4 = -20
Divide -8 by 0.4 which is -20

Answer:

Part A) The area of triangle i is $3\ cm^{2}$

Part B) The total area of triangles i and ii is $6\ cm^{2}$

Part C) The area of rectangle i is $20\ cm^{2}$

Part D) The area of rectangle ii is $32\ cm^{2}$

Part E) The total area of rectangles i and iii is $40\ cm^{2}$

Part F) The total area of all the rectangles is $72\ cm^{2}$

Part G) To find the surface area of the prism, we need to know only the area of triangle i and the area of rectangle i and the area of rectangle ii, because the area of triangle ii is equal to the area of triangle i and the area of rectangle iii is equal to the area of rectangle i

Part H) The surface area of the prism is $78\ cm^{2}$

Part I) The statement is false

Part J) The statement is true

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) What is the area of triangle i?

we know that

The area of a triangle is equal to

$A=\frac{1}{2} (b)(h)$

we have

$b=4\ cm$

$h=1.5\ cm$

substitute

$A=\frac{1}{2} (4)(1.5)$

$Ai=3\ cm^{2}$

Part B) Triangles i and ii are congruent (of the same size and shape). What is the total area of triangles i and ii?

we know that

If Triangles i and ii are congruent

then

Their areas are equal

so

$Aii=Ai$

The area of triangle ii is equal to

$Aii=3\ cm^{2}$

The total area of triangles i and ii is equal to

$A=Ai+Aii$

substitute the values

$A=3+3=6\ cm^{2}$

Part C) What is the area of rectangle i?

we know that

The area of a rectangle is equal to

$A=(b)(h)$

we have

$b=2.5\ cm$

$h=8\ cm$

substitute

$Ai=(2.5)(8)$

$Ai=20\ cm^{2}$

Part D) What is the area of rectangle ii?

we know that

The area of a rectangle is equal to

$A=(b)(h)$

we have

$b=4\ cm$

$h=8\ cm$

substitute

$Aii=(4)(8)$

$Aii=32\ cm^{2}$

Part E) Rectangles i and iii have the same size and shape. What is the total area of rectangles i and iii?

we know that

Rectangles i and iii are congruent (have the same size and shape)

If rectangles i and iii are congruent

then

Their areas are equal

so

$Aiii=Ai$

The area of rectangle iii is equal to

$Aiii=20\ cm^{2}$

The total area of rectangles i and iii is equal to

$A=Ai+Aiii$

substitute the values

$A=20+20=40\ cm^{2}$

Part F) What is the total area of all the rectangles?

we know that

The total area of all the rectangles is

$At=Ai+Aii+Aiii$

substitute the values

$At=20+32+20=72\ cm^{2}$

Part G) What areas do you need to know to find the surface area of the prism?

To find the surface area of the prism, we need to know only the area of triangle i and the area of rectangle i and the area of rectangle ii, because the area of triangle ii is equal to the area of triangle i and the area of rectangle iii is equal to the area of rectangle i

Part H) What is the surface area of the prism? Show your calculation

we know that

The surface area of the prism is equal to the area of all the faces of the prism

so

The surface area of the prism is two times the area of triangle i plus two times the area of rectangle i plus the area of rectangle ii

$SA=2(3)+2(20)+32=78\ cm^{2}$

Part I) Read this statement: “If you multiply the area of one rectangle in the figure by 3, you’ll get the total area of the rectangles.” Is this statement true or false? Why?

The statement is false

Because, the three rectangles are not congruent

The total area of the rectangles is $72\ cm^{2}$ and if you multiply the area of one rectangle by 3 you will get $20*3=60\ cm^{2}$

$72\ cm^{2}\neq 60\ cm^{2}$

Part J) Read this statement: “If you multiply the area of one triangle in the figure by 2, you’ll get the total area of the triangles.” Is this statement true or false? Why?

The statement is true

Because, the triangles are congruent

Before the distribution of certain statistical software, every fourth compact disk (CD) is testedfor accuracy. The testing proce

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

P(T∩E) = 0.017

Step-by-step explanation:

Since every fourth CD is tested. Thus if T is the event that represents 4 disks being tested,

P(T) = 1/4 = 0.25

Let Fi represent event of failure rate. So from the question,

P(F1) = 0.01 ; P(F2) = 0.03 ; P(F3) =0.02 ; P(F4) = 0.01

Also Let F'i represent event of success rate. And we have;

P(F'1) = 1 - 0.01 = 0.99 ; P(F'2) = 1 - 0.03 = 0.97; P(F'3) = 1 - 0.02 = 0.98; P(F'4) = 1 - 0.01 = 0.99

Since all programs run independently, the probability that all programs will run successfully is;

P(All programs to run successfully) =

P(F'1) x P(F'2) x P(F'3) x P(F'4) =

0.99 x 0.97 x 0.98 x 0.97 = 0.932

Now, that all 4 programs failed will be = 1 - 0.932 = 0.068

Let E be denote that the CD fails the test. Thus P(E) = 0.068

Now, since testing and CD's defection are independent events, the probability that one CD was tested and failed will be =P(T∩E) = P(T) x P(E)= 0.25 x 0.068 = 0.017
