A group of exchange students from Japan went to a convalescent home to sing songs for the seniors and to demonstrate origami. Groups of students and seniors sat together at tables so the students could teach the seniors to fold some origami figures. As it turned out, at each table there was either 1 student and 3 seniors, or 2 students and 4 seniors. There were 23 students and 61 seniors in all. How many tables were being used?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

19 tables

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X represent the number of tables that have 1 student and 3 seniors

Let Y represent the number of tables that have 2 student2 and 4 seniors

Therefore number students total

1X + 2Y =23   (1)

Number of seniors total

3X + 4Y = 61   (2)

Multiply equation (1) by 2 giving

2X + 4Y = 46  (3)

Subtract (3) from (2)

3X + 4Y - (2X+4y) = 61-46

3X + 4Y - 2X -4Y  = 15

3X-2X = 15

X = 15

Plugging this value into equation (1) gives

1(15) + 2Y = 23

15 + 2Y = 23

Subtract 15 from both sides

2Y = 23 - 15

2Y = 8

Divide by 2 both sides

Y = 4

Thus total number of tables used = X +Y = 15+4 = 19

a. Invent two situations that you think would result in distributions with similar measures of variability. Explain your reasoning.

b. Invent two situations that you think would result in distributions with different measures of variability. Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using measures of variability, it is found that:

a. The situations with constant measures involve constant distributions, such as the number of snow days in Miami each year.

b. The situations with different measures involve constant distributions, such as the number of snow days in Buffalo each year.

What are the measures of variability in a data-set?

There are three measures of variability in a data-set: the range, the standard deviation and the variance.

The range is given by the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of a data-set.

The standard deviation and the variance are described as follows:

The mean of a data-set is given by the sum of all values in the data-set, divided by the number of values.The standard deviation of a data-set is given by the square root of the sum of the differences squared between each observation and the mean, divided by the number of values.The variance is the square of the standard deviation.

Uniform(constants) data-sets will have similar measures. One example is the number of snow days in Miami each year, which is always of 0, hence the three measures will be of 0.

More disperse data-set will have different measures. Taking the city of Buffalo, in New York, as an example. On average, it should have 40 days of snow each winter, but on colder winters it can have 60 and warmer winters it can have 20. Hence the distribution with the number of snow days in Buffalo over a period of 20 years will have different range, standard deviation and variances.

The answer we got is a complex number.

We are asked to find out the multiplication of a complex number and a real number.

The general form of a complex number is a + bi.

If we need to find the product of a complex number and a real number,

then, we need to multiply the real and imaginary parts by the real number and write down the answer.

The real number given is 2.

And the complex number given is 12 - 11i.

The real part of the complex number is 12.

And the imaginary part of the complex number is -11.

When the real part of the complex number is multiplied by the real number, we get 12 × 2 = 24.

When the imaginary part of the complex number is multiplied by the real number, we get (-11) × 2 = -22

A straight line of numbers is shown visually as a number line. This line is used to compare integers on an endless line that extends on both sides, either horizontally or vertically, at equal intervals. On a horizontal number line, the numbers grow as we walk to the right and drop as we move to the left.

A number line is a visual depiction of numbers on a straight line drawn either horizontally or vertically. It is simple for humans to compare numbers and carry out simple arithmetic operations on them when they are written down on a number line. A number line is said to begin at zero (0). Left of zero, there are only negative numbers, and right of zero, there are only positive numbers. So, on a number line, we may say that the value of numbers grows as we travel to the right.

The perimeter of a rectangular pool is 56 meters. If the length of the pool is 16 meters, then find its width.

Here the perimeter and the length of the rectangular pool are given. We have to find the width of the pool.

The perimeter P of a rectangle is given by the formula, P=2l+2w, where l is the length and w is the width of the rectangle.

Given that, the perimeter is 56 meters and the length is 16 meters. So, substitute these values into the formula.

56=2(16)+2w

Simplify.

56=32+2w

Subtract 32 from both sides.

24=2w

Divide each side by 2 .

12=w

Therefore, the width of the rectangular pool is 12 meters.

The geometric transformation which will not  produce the image ∆A'B'C' is an option (B) reflection across the x-axis followed by a reflection across the y-axis

In this question, we have been given a triangle ABC and the transformed triangle A'B'C'

Also, in the graph the first triangle is at A(-3, 0), B(-2, 3), C(- 1, 1) and the Second triangle is at A prime (0, -3), B prime (3, -2), C prime (1, -1).

Consider the graph as shown below.

From the coordinates of vertex of triangle ABC and triangle A'B'C' we can observe that,

A(-3, 0) -> A'(0, -3)

B(-2, 3) -> B'(3, -2)

C(-1, 1) -> C'(1, -1)

For each vertex,

x coordinate of triangle ABC = y coordinate of triangle A'B'C'

and y coordinate of triangle ABC = x coordinate of triangle A'B'C'

This means, the geometric transformation of triangle ABC is reflection across the line y = x

But the reflection across the x-axis followed by a reflection across the y-axis.

Therefore, the geometric transformation which will not  produce the image ∆A'B'C' is an option (B) reflection across the x-axis followed by a reflection across the y-axis

How to Find the Perimeter of a Figure?

The perimeter of a figure is the total length surrounding the figure.

We are given that the figure shown below has a perimeter of 35 2/3 cm, which means all the total length of all its sides equals 35 2/3 cm.

To find the missing length, sum all the given lengths and subtract it from the perimeter of the figure.

Sum of all the given lengths =  4 3/4 + 3 1/2 + 1 1/3 + 1 1/3 + 3 1/2 + 9.25 + 6.6 = 4.75 + 2.3 + 1.3 + 1.3 + 2.3 + 9.25 + 6.6

Sum of all the given lengths =  27.8 cm

A company is designing boxes to ship their product to stores. The design team decides that the width of the box should be five feet shorter than the length, and the height of the box should be three feet longer than the width. Due to shipping constraints, the length of the box can be no greater than six feet.

The volume of the box, V(x), can be modeled by a polynomial function, where x is the length of the box. Which of the following correctly models the situation above and gives the correct domain?

Answers

The polynomial function is V(x) = x^3 - 7x^2 + 10x and domain of x is (5,6]

Here we are given that the length of the box is x

Also, the width of the box should be 5 feet shorter than the length

Thus, width = x - 5

and the height should be 3 feet longer than the width

Thus, height = x - 5 + 3

= x - 2

Now the volume of the box = length × width × height

Volume = x (x-5) (x-2)

V(x) = (x^2 - 5x) (x-2)

V(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 - 5x^2 + 10x

V(x) = x^3 - 7x^2 + 10x

Now, looking at the options, we see that option C is eliminated.

Now, let us look at the domain of x

Since width cannot be negative (x-5) > 0

⇒ x > 5

Now in option A domain is (0, 6], but x cannot take values from (0,5). Thus, option A is eliminated.

Similarly, we can eliminate option B also since x cannot take values from (0, 2)

Thus, option 4 is the correct answer.
