A passenger traveling by air is allowed a maximum of 20kg luggage. A man has 4 bags weighing 3.5kg , 15kg, 2kg, 1.5kg. Find the excess weight of the luggage. Express the excess weight as a percentage of the maximum weight​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The passenger's luggage has an excess weight of 2 kg, which is 10% of the maximum weight.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the weight (W) of the 4 bags:

[tex] W = 3.5 kg + 15 kg + 2 kg + 1.5 kg = 22 kg [/tex]

Now, knowing that the maximum allowed (M) is 20 kg the excess weight of the luggage is:

[tex] W_{e} = W - M = 22 kg - 20 kg = 2 kg [/tex]

We can express the excess weight in percentage as follows:

[tex] \% W_{e} = \frac{W_{e}}{M} \times 100 = \frac{2 kg}{20 kg}\times 100 = 10 \% [/tex]  

Therefore, the passenger's luggage has an excess weight of 2 kg, which is 10% of the maximum weight.          

 

I hope it helps you!

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=x2-5  f(1)

f(1)= (1)2 -5

2-5

-3

ANSWER: -3

WHY: since 1 is x we replace the x which creates f(1) = 1•2-5
Then we multiply 1•2 which gives us 2 so now f(1)=2-5
Lastly we subtract 2-5 which results in -3 making f(1)= -3

Answer:

-2.5x-.5

[tex]y=\frac{2}{3}x-1[/tex]

draw the dotted line (3/7)x-3 and shade below it

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need the slope

Use the slope formula:

[tex]\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-x_1}=\frac{2-(-8)}{-1-3}=\frac{10}{-4}=-2.5[/tex]

so we have

y= -2.5x+b

Solve for b by plugging in coordiantes

-8= -2.5(3)+b

-8= -7.5+b

b= -.5

Put it together and get -2.5x-.5

2.)

A line is parallel to another line if they have the same slope (and different y intercepts)

So in the formula y=mx+b we knowe that m= 2/3

Now it's just a matter of solving for B

plug in the required coordinate to do this

-1=(2/3)*0+b

-1= b

Put it all together to get

[tex]y=\frac{2}{3}x-1[/tex]

3.)

put this into slope intercept form

3x-7y>21

3x-21 > 7y

(3/7)x-3 >y

To graph this just draw a dotted line with the equation (3/7)x-3 and shade everything below it (use de_smos if you're stuck)

Answers

y = 1/4(x + 5)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the given equation form;

(h,k) represents the vertex of the parablola

To get the value of a, we use the given point

So we have;

1 = a(-3 + 5)^2 + 0

1 = a(2)^2

4a = 1

a = 1/4

Answer:

  2 < x < 24.937

Step-by-step explanation:

Conceptually, the values of x are allowed to be between those that make angle ABC one of zero measure and that make angle ABD a straight angle.

That is ...

  0 < 2x-4 < 180 -86

  4 < 2x < 98

  2 < x < 49

__

However, some study of this geometry convinces us that the largest that angle ABC can be is one that makes ∆ABC isosceles. In that case, AB = CB = DB, and B is the center of the circle through points A, C, and D. Trigonometry can be used to find the value of x in that case.

The radius CB of circle B must be such that the bisector of angle CBD intersects the midpoint of CD:

  CB·sin(86°/2) = 14/2

Similarly, the bisector of angle ABC will meet the midpoint of AC:

  CB·sin((2x -4)°/2) = 8/2

Equating expressions for CB gives ...

  7/sin(43°) = 4/sin((x-2)°)

  (x -2)° = arcsin((4/7)sin(43°))

  x° = 2° +arcsin(4/7·sin(43°))

  x ≈ 24.937

So, a revised upper limit on x puts the range of possible values as ...

  2 < x < 24.937

A pair of equations is shown below:

y = 6x − 4
y = 5x − 3

Part A: In your own words, explain how you can solve the pair of equations graphically. Write the slope and y-intercept for each equation that you will plot on the graph to solve the equations. (6 points)

Part B: What is the solution to the pair of equations? (4 points)

Answers

Answer:

A) To plot equations in point-slope form, pick one and let x = 0, then solve for y (or -4). That gives you point 1 (0,-4). Then let y = 0 and solve for x (or 2/3). That gives you a second point (2/3,0). Plot the two points and draw the line. Repeat for the second equation (points are (0,-3) and (3/5,0)). Where the lines cross is the solution for both equations.

B) point (1,2) fits both equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Or solve by brute force...

The solution is where the same X,Y point fits both equations, or Y1 = Y2 and X1 = X2. So the equations in point-slope form (already in point-slope form) equal to each other, solve for X and plug that back into either of the equations to find Y.

6X - 4 = 5X -3

X = 1  so

y = 6X - 4

Y = 6 - 4

Y = 2

If the equation of a line is 2y+3x=3, what is the y intercept of the line?​

Answers

Answer:

3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2y+3x=3

This represents a linear equation and the format for a linear equation is

y = mx+b

m = slope

b= y-intercept

we have to subtract 3x from both sides to make this the y=mx+b form

2y=-3x+3

and divide both sides by 2

y = (-3x+3)/2

3/2 or 1.5 is the y-intercept

the constant of a linear equation (or 3) is the y-intercept, if there is no constant then the y-intercept is 0

Answer:

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2y+3x=3

Convert to y=mx+b form...

y=mx+b

y(output)

x(input)

x(slope/growth)

b(y int/starting point)

Steps for converting to y=mx+b form:

-subtract 3x from both sides of equal sign

-divide by 2 on both sides

2y+3x = 32y = -3x+3y = -1.5+1.5

y = -1.5+1.5

so 1.5 is y int.

the meal costs $52.95 for 5 people. Jenna ordered a dessert for $2.50. if Jenna deducts this amount from the total how much will each of the other people pay for their meal

Answers

Subtract the dessert from the total:

52.95 - 2.50 = 50.45

Now divide that by the number of people:

50.45/5 = 10.09

Each person would pay $10.09

She would pay 10.09 + 2.50 = 12.59

52.95/5 = 10.59
2.50/5 = .50
All the others beside her will pay $10.09 for their meal.

Answer:

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 angles lie on a straight line and sum to 180° , then

x - 3 + 153 = 180

x + 150 = 180 ( subtract 150 from both sides )

x = 30

Answer:

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

180° = total

153° = part

180° - 153° = 27°

Then use the equation to find the value of x

(x - 3) = 27

(x + 3) = +3       Add 3 to both sides!

x = 30

There are 5 sides in the polygon.

Total perimeter of the polygon is 12.5 cm and it is a regular polygon.

Each side of the polygon is 2.5 cm.

So total number of sides is: Total perimeter of the polygon / Length of each side = 12.5 cm/ 2.5 cm = 5

Hence, the polygon has 5 sides and it is a regular pentagon.

You travel about 1.3x10^4 miles per year in your Toyota Camry, which gets 28 miles per gallon of gasoline. The combustion of gasoline emits 2.42 kg C per gallon. Based on this information, calculate the carbon footprint of your transporation.

Answers

Answer:

1123.5714 kg C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Miles traveled = 1.3 * 10^4 miles

Miles per gallon = 28 miles per Gallon

Carbon footprint per gallon = 2.42 kg C per gallon

The total gallons of gasoline used over the course of the year :

Total miles traveled / miles per gallon

1.3 * 10^4 / 28 = 464.28571 gallons

Carbon footprint per gallon = 2.42 kg C

Total carbon footprint of transportation :

2.42 kg C per gallon * 464.28571 gallons

= 1123.5714 kg C

Put the Given value in Formula, We get

2000 = 1000 (1 + 0.05/2) ^ 2t

2 = (1+0.025)^2t

2 = (1.025)^2t   ⇔ 1.025^30 = 2.0975 ≈ 2

Thus, 2t = 30 ⇒ t = 15 Years

OR

2 = (1.025)^2t   ⇔ 1.025^29 = 2.0464 ≈ 2

Thus, 2t = 29 ⇒ t = 14.5 Years

A 28 foot ladder leans up against a building and reaches the base of a window that is 20 feet high. How far is the base of the ladder from the base of the building? Round your answer to the nearest whole foot

A 16 feet

B 20 feet

C 24 feet

D 34 feet

Answers

Answer:

20 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between base of the ladder from the base of the building is given by option B) 20 feet.

Use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this problem.

The Pythagorean theorem states that in a right-angled triangle,

The square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

Length of the ladder = 28 foot

Here, the ladder forms the hypotenuse, and the height of the window (20 feet)

And the distance from the base of the ladder to the base of the building (let's call it x feet) are the other two sides.

So, we have:

Ladder² = Height² + Distance²

28² = 20² + x²

Now, let's solve for x:

x² = 28²- 20²

x² = 784 - 400

x² = 384

Now, take the square root of both sides to find x:

x = √384

x ≈ 19.6 feet

Rounding to the nearest whole foot, the distance from the base of the ladder to the base of the building is 20 feet.

Therefore, the distance between base of the ladder and building is equal to option B) 20 feet.
