a group of 4 pupils can take 2 weeks to do a certain job.how long will 12 pupils take to complete the job if they work at the same rate​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

6 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion where x is the amount of time with 12 pupils:

[tex]\frac{4}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{x}[/tex]

Cross multiply and solve for x:

4x = 24

x = 6

So, it will take 12 pupils 6 weeks to complete the job.

The cost per person c of chartering a tour bus
varies inversely as the number of passengers
n. If it costs $22.50 per person to charter a
bus for 20 passengers, how much will it cost
per person to charter a bus for 36 passengers?

Answers

Answer:

It will cost $12.5 per person to charter a bus for 36 passengers

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost per person c of chartering a tour bus  varies inversely as the number of passengers  n.

We can write:

[tex]c\:\alpha \:\frac{1}{n} \\c=\frac{k}{n}[/tex]

where k is constant of proportionality

We are given when c = 22.50, n = 20

We need to find c when n = 36

First using c = 22.50, n = 20 we will find k, the constant of proportionality

[tex]c=\frac{k}{n}\\22.50=\frac{k}{20}\\k=22.50 \times 20\\k=450[/tex]

So, we get k = 450

Now, we will find c when n = 36

[tex]c=\frac{k}{n}\\c=\frac{450}{36}\\c=12.5[/tex]

So, we get the value of c: c = 12.5

Therefore, It will cost $12.5 per person to charter a bus for 36 passengers

If a = 7 and b = 11, what is the measure of ∠B? (round to the nearest tenth of a degree) A) 32.5° B) 39.2° C) 50.5° D) 57.5°

Answers

Answer:

D) 57.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

As the question is not complete. So, let's suppose it is a right angle triangle then, we can apply Pythagoras theorem to calculate the hypotenuse or the third side.

Pythagoras Theorem = [tex]c^{2}[/tex] = [tex]a^{2} + b^{2}[/tex]

a = 7 and b = 11

[tex]a^{2}[/tex] = 49

[tex]b^{2}[/tex] = 121

Plugging in the values, we will get:

[tex]c^{2}[/tex] = 49 + 121

[tex]c^{2}[/tex] = 170

c = [tex]\sqrt{170}[/tex]

To calculate the unknown angle B, we can use law of sine.

Law of sine = [tex]\frac{a}{sinA}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{b}{sinB}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{c}{sinC}[/tex]

So,

[tex]\frac{c}{sinC}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{b}{sinB}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\sqrt{170} }{sin90}[/tex] =  [tex]\frac{11}{sinB}[/tex]

Sin90 = 1

sinB = [tex]\frac{11}{\sqrt{170} }[/tex]

B = [tex]sin^{-1}[/tex] ([tex]\frac{11}{\sqrt{170} }[/tex])

B = 57.5°

Cynthia invests some money in a bank which pays 5% compound interest per year.
She wants it to be worth over £8000 at the end of 3years.
What is the smallest amount to nearest pound she can invest?​

Answers

Answer:

£6,910.70

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the amount invested is given below:

As we know that

Amount = Principal × (1 + rate of interest)^number of years

£8000 = Principal × (1 + 0.05)^3

£8000 = Principal × 1.05^3

£8000 = Principal × 1.157625

So, the principal amount is

= £8000 ÷ 1.157625

= £6,910.70

Last year at a certain high school, there were 150 boys on the honor roll and 150 girls
on the honor roll. This year, the number of boys on the honor roll increased by 24%
and the number of girls on the honor roll increased by 10%. By what percentage did
the total number of students on the honor roll increase? Round your answer to the
nearest tenth (if necessary).

Answers

Answer: 17%

Step-by-step explanation:

Last year:

Number of boys = 150 boys

Number or girls = 150 girls.

Total = 300 students

This year:

Number of boys = 150 + (24% × 150)

= 150 + (0.24 × 150)

= 150 + 36

= 186

Number or girls = 150 + (10% × 150)

= 150 + (0.1 × 150)

= 150 + 15

= 165

Total students = 186 + 165 = 351

Percentage increase = (351 - 300) / 300 × 100

= 51 / 300 × 100

= 17%

Answer:

Thats wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

Find new values:

150(1+0.24)=\color{green}{186}

150(1+0.24)=186

150(1+0.06)=\color{blue}{159}

150(1+0.06)=159

Last Year This Year

Boys 150 186

Girls 150 159

Total 300 345

\text{Find overall increase:}

Find overall increase:

300(1+r)=345

300(1+r)=345

\frac{300(1+r)}{300}=\frac{345}{300}

300

300(1+r)

C
They compare the lower quartile to the upper quartile.

D
They compare the median to the interquartile range.

Answers

Answer:

the answer should be c

Step-by-step explanation:

A Box and Whisker Plot (or Box Plot) is a convenient way of visually displaying the data distribution through their quartiles. The lines extending parallel from the boxes are known as the “whiskers”, which are used to indicate variability outside the upper and lower quartiles

Whiskers function in a box and whisker plot represent the interquartile range. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

What is a box-and-whisker plot?

A special kind of graph called a box and whisker plot is used to display the distribution of groupings of numerical data. It displays the median—the average value of the numbers in your data—as well as the lowest and greatest values as well as the quartiles, which divide the data into four equally-sized groups.

The whiskers are the two lines that extend outside the box and run from the minimum to the lower quartile (the box's beginning) and from the higher quartile (the box's end) to the maximum value.

Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

What is the number Read this passage (THE QUESTIONS ARE AFTER THE PASSAGE ANSWER CORRECT THEM FOR BRAINLIST AND 25 POINTS)Whales are aquatic mammals.1 Whales live in the water, but they arent fishtheyre mammals. All mammals are warm-blooded (maintain a high constant body temperature), breathe air, give live birth, nurse their young, and have hair. A whale breathes air through nostrils called a blowhole, located on top of its head. When it needs oxygen, a whale surfaces, thrusts its blowhole clear of the water, exhales (blows), and then inhales (takes in a deep breath of air).Baby whales drink milk.2 Like other mammals mothers, whales give birth to live young. A whale calf that is born under water can swim at birth. Soon after birth, the calf begins nursing. Whale milk is rich in fat and protein, and baby whales grow quickly. A blue whale (Balaenoptera musculus) calf can gain as much as 90 kg (200 lb) a day while nursing.Do whales have hair?3 Yes, whales have hair, but they usually shed their hair while they are very young. Adult whales rarely have hair. A young whale may be born with sparse hairs along its rostrum. 1 Smooth skin makes a whale sleek and fastan adaptation for living in water. What does a whales skin feel like? Some people say it feels like a wet inner tube.Whales are adapted for water.4 Whales bodies are streamlined. A streamlined shape glides easily through water and helps a whale conserve energy as it swims. A whales powerful tail is made up of a pair of flukes. The tail flukes move up and down for swimming. Forelimbs are called flippers. Whales use their flippers for steering and, with the help of the flukes, stopping. Most whales have a dorsal fin, which helps regulate body heat and also helps stabilize a swimming whale.Blubber keeps whales warm.5 Whales are warm-blooded with a core temperature about the same as ours. Because they live in cool water, they have adaptations for retaining body heat. A thick layer of fatty tissue called blubber lies just under the skin. Blubber insulates a whales internal organs and muscles.Mysticeti means mustached whale.6 This nickname refers to the baleen that hangs from the gums along each side of a mysticetes upper jaw. Baleen is made mostly of keratin, a substance that also forms our fingernails and hair. Mysticetes tend to be solitary animals, traveling alone or in small groups. Unlike toothed whales, they have two blowholes.Baleen plates work like a strainer.7 A mysticetes baleen strains food from the water. Some mysticetes feed by swimming with their mouths wide open. Others gulp in huge amounts of water. When they close their mouths, the water is forced out through the baleen, and food is trapped in the fringe. The whale swallows its meal.The largest eat the smallest.8 Mysticetes, some of the largest animals ever to live on earth, eat some of the smallest, most abundant life in the ocean: plankton. Depending on the species, mysticetes also eat small schooling fishes and a variety of tiny crustaceans such as krill, copepods, and amphipods.How do we learn about whales?9 Much of our knowledge about whales has come from the study of dead animals on beaches and from whaling expeditions. Today scientists study live whales to learn more about how they live.10 Studying whales in the wild can be difficult because all we usually see is the blow, the back, or the tail flukes. Some scientists study whales under water or analyze whale photographs.11 Much information has also come from whale studies in research facilities and marine zoological parks. Zoological research and breeding efforts have generated a wealth of behavioral, nutritional, and veterinary information.
