find the number n of hours you need to study on Saturday so that mean number of hours you study per day is 1.5
Days Hours
Sunday 0
Monday 1.5
Tuesday 2.5
Wednesday 2.5
Thursday 3
Friday 0
Sunday N​

Answers

Answer:

1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Day       Hours

Sunday    0

Monday   1.5

Tuesday    2.5

Wednesday  2.5

Thursday       3

Friday            0

Saturday       n

Mean number of hours of  study per day=1.5

Mean=[tex]\frac{sum\;of\;data\;}{total\;number\;of\;data\;points}[/tex]

Total number of days=7

Using the formula

[tex]1.5=\frac{0+1.5+2.5+2.5+3+0+n}{7}[/tex]

[tex]1.5\times 7=9.5+n[/tex]

[tex]10.5-9.5=n[/tex]

[tex]n=1[/tex]

Hence,  number of hours you need to study on Saturday=n=1

Ira bought a t-shirt that was discounted 50%. He used a coupon for 50% off at the cash register. Why was he charged $6.50 instead of $0?

Answers

50% off makes the new price half of the original, then another 50 % would be half off the discounted price, so they actually end up paying 25 % of the original price:

50 % x 50 % = 25 %

Answer:

she was charged for 50% of the 50% off

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets say the original price was 100$ The store discounted it by 50% so it is now 50$ but the coupon take 50% off of that 50 so it would be 25$

PLS HELP TIMED QUESTION!!!
A quantity with an initial value of 9800 decays exponentially at a rate such that the quantity cuts in half every 6 days. What is the value of the quantity after 138 hours, to the nearest hundredth?

Answers

Answer:

About 5043.58

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form for an exponential decay after t time is:

[tex]\displaystyle f(t)=a(r)^{t/d}[/tex]

Where a is the initial value, r is the rate decay, t is the time that has passed, and d is the amount of time it takes for 1 cycle.

The initial value is 9800. So a = 9800.

The quantity cuts in half. So, r = 1/2.

And it cuts in half every 6 days. For this question, we will convert this to hours. 6 days = 144 hours. So, we can let d = 144, where t will be in hours.

Therefore, our function is:

[tex]\displaystyle f(t)=9800\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)^{t/144}[/tex]

Where t is the amount of time that has passed, in hours.

Then the quantity left after 138 hours will be:

[tex]\displaystyle f(138)=9800\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)^{138/144}\approx 5043.58[/tex]

Find the curved surface area of a cylinder if it's base circumference is 36 cm and it's height is 4 cm​

Answers

Answer:

CSA of a cylinder = 144cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Base circumference = 36cm

Height = 4cm

To find the curved surface area (CSA) of the cylinder;

CSA of a cylinder = 2πr * h

But 2πr = 36cm

Substituting the values into the equation, we have;

CSA of a cylinder = 36 * 4

CSA of a cylinder = 144cm²

Answer:

The mean is 8.4

Step-by-step explanation:

First you find the class centers.

3-6 = 4.5

7-10 = 8.5

11-14 = 12.5

15-18 = 16.5

The sum of all the scores = 4.5 * 7 + 8.5 * 10 + 12.5 * 6 + 16.5 + 2 = 210

The sum of the number of scores = 7 + 10 + 6 + 2 = 25

The mean = 210/25 = 42/5 = 8.4

A set of 6 number cards contain the numbers 2, 5, 7, 8, 9, and 11. Which ratio is less than the ratio of odd number cards to total cards in this set?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Ratio = 2:3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Cards = \{2,5,7,8,9,11\}[/tex]

Required

Ratio of odd numbers to total

First, list out the odd numbers

[tex]Odd = \{5,7,9,11\}[/tex]

The card has 4 odd numbers out of a total of 6.

So, the ratio is:

[tex]Ratio = Odd : Total[/tex]

[tex]Ratio = 4:6[/tex]

Divide by 2

[tex]Ratio = 2:3[/tex]

Hence, the ratio of odd to total is 2 to 3

Since, all the four terms are in proportion.

Therefore,

[tex] \frac{24}{36} = \frac{x}{126} \\ \\ x = \frac{24 \times 126}{36} \\ \\ x = \frac{3,024}{36} \\ \\ x = 84[/tex]

The median household income in the US grew linearly from approximately $30, 000 in 1990 to $48, 000 in 2006. Let x be the number of years since 1990. Express the median income as a function of x. Use this function to approximate the median income in 2030. What is the significance of the slope of this function

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = 1125x+30000[/tex] --- The equation

The median income in 2030 is $75000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent years since 1990 with x and the income with y.

So, we have:

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (0,30000)[/tex] --- In 1990

[tex](x_2,y_2) = (16,48000)[/tex] --- In 2006

Solving (a): Express as a function.

First, we calculate the slope

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{48000-30000}{16-0}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{18000}{16}[/tex]

[tex]m = 1125[/tex]

The equation is then calculated as:

[tex]y = m(x-x_1)+y_1[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]y = 1125(x-0)+30000[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]y = 1125x-0+30000[/tex]

[tex]y = 1125x+30000[/tex]

Solving (b): Income in 2030.

In 2030, x = 40.

Substitute 40 for x in [tex]y = 1125x+30000[/tex]

[tex]y = 1125*40 +30000[/tex]

[tex]y = 45000 +30000[/tex]

[tex]y = 75000[/tex]

Solving (c): The significance of the slope.

In (a), the slope is calculated as 1125.

This implies that the yearly rate is $1125

If a family has 8 children , in how many ways could the parents have 5 boys and 3 girls

Answers

That depends on what you mean by a "way" of having children. Some of the more obvious answers: One. Four boys and four girls, there's no other way of getting that many boys or that many girls. 40320. Usually each child has its own distinct DNA. The information in DNA can be converted into a number, and there are 8-factorial = 8! = 40320 orderings for eight numbers. 70. If each boy is considered to be the same until it is born and then named, so that the first four boys will always be named the same way and the same for the girls, then you can find the number of ways using binomial coefficients. The number of ways of arranging four equal boys and four equal girls into an order, is the same as the number of ways of choosing four numbers from 1 to 8 representing the position of the boys in that order. The number of ways of choosing a set of 4 numbers from 8 is called "8 choose 4" sometimes written 8C4 and is calculated as (8*7*6*5)/(4*3*2*1) (The numererator product in nCr stops when you have r numbers) (8*7*6*5)/(4*3*2*1) = 70

Answer:

As parents have 5b and 3 g
