The following are the ages (years) of 5 people in a room:
17, 21, 15, 15, 25
A person enters the room.
The mean age of the 6 people is now 25.
What is the age of the person who entered the room?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

57 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of a set of numbers is given as the ratio of the sum of the numbers to the number of numbers in the given data set.

Hence given that the age of 5 people are 17, 21, 15, 15, 25 and a 6th person joins the set, making the mean age 25, let the age of the new person that joined be x then

25 = (x + 17 + 21 + 15 + 15 + 25)/6

25 = (x + 93)/6

Multiply both sides by 6

150 = x + 93

subtract 93 from both sides

x = 150 - 93

x = 57 years

The age of the person who entered the room is 57 years

We simplify this inequality to x>4. This means it is moving past the four to the right with an open dot

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\boxed{\pink{\bf \leadsto Option \ A \ is \ correct . }}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For the number line refer to the attachment :

A linear inequality is given to us . And we need to find the correct number line. So the given linear inequality is :-

[tex]\bf \implies 5x + 3 > 4x + 7 \\\\\bf\implies 5x - 4x > 7 - 3 \\\\\bf\implies \boxed{\red{\bf x > 4 }}[/tex]

This implies that the value of x is Greater than 4 . That is the inequality can have all the values more than 4. So when we see the given number lines we see that the first number line represents all values greater than 4 .

Hence the first graph of the solution set represents the given linear inequality.

Eli and Claire work at a dry cleaners ironing shirts. Eli can iron 15 shirts per hour,
and Claire can iron 20 shirts per hour. Eli and Claire worked a combined 17 hours
and ironed 300 shirts. Graphically solve a system of equations in order to determine
the number of hours Eli worked, x, and the number hours Claire worked, y.

Answers

Answer:

∴ Eli worked for 8 hours and Claire worked for 9 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us form the two equations then graph them

∵ Eli worked for x hours

∵ Claire worked for y hours

∵ Eli and Claire worked a combined 17 hours

x + y = 17 ⇒ (1)

∵ Eli can iron 15 shirts per hour

∵ Claire can iron 20 shirts per hour

∵ They ironed 300 shirts together in 17 hours

→ Multiply x by 15 and y by 20, then add the products and equate their

   sum by 300

15x + 20 y = 300 ⇒ (2)

Now let us find 2 points in each equation and draw the two lines which represent the two equations

→ In equation 1, put x = 0

∵ x = 0

∵ 0 + y = 17

∴ y = 17

The first point is (0, 17)

→ Put y = 0 and find x

∵ y = 0

∴ x + 0 = 17

∴ x = 17

The second point is (17, 0)

→ In equation 2, put x = 0

∵ x = 0

∵ 0 + 20y = 300

∴ 20y = 300

→ Divide both sides by 20

∴ y = 15

The first point is (0, 15)

→ Put y = 0 and find x

∵ y = 0

∴ 15x + 0 = 300

→ Divide both sides by 15

∴ x = 20

The second point is (20, 0)

Draw the first line using points (0, 17) and (17, 0)

Draw the second line using points (0, 15) and (20, 0)

The graph is attached down

From the graph

The red line represents equation (1)

The blue line represents equation (2)

The two lines intersected at point (8, 9) which is the solution of the system of equations

∴ The solution of the two equations is (8, 9)

∴ Eli worked for 8 hours and Claire worked for 9 hours

Rita and Lumiere are solving a problem about driving to Scream N Barf theme park... They know that the theme park is 30 miles away and that they will drive an average of 15 miles per hour. They need to write an equation and solve it to find out how long it will take to get there.

Rita says they should the formula `d=rt`, where `d` is the distance traveled in miles, `r` is the rate of speed in miles per hour, and `t` is the time in hours.

Lumiere says they should use the equation `t=\frac{d}{r}` instead. Who is right? Explain.

Mary, Bianca and Steve are picking apples. Mary picks 264 apples. 1/6 of these apples are green. Bianca picks 150 apples. 28% of these apples are green. Steve picks 340 apples. 15% of these apples are green. Who picks the most green apples? You must show your working out in your workbooks.

Answers

Answer:

Steve picked most green apples among the three people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

There are three persons Mary, Bianca and Steve who are picking apples.

Few of the apples are green.

We have to find the person who picked the most number of green apples.

Let us first calculate the number of green apples picked by each one of them then we can compare the three values to find the required answer.

Total number of apples picked by Mary = 264

Number of green apples picked by Mary = [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] of the total apples picked by Mary = [tex]\frac{1}{6}\times 264 = 44[/tex]

Total number of apples picked by Bianca = 150

Number of green apples picked by Bianca = 28% of the total apples picked by Bianca= [tex]\frac{28}{100}\times 150 = 42[/tex]

Total number of apples picked by Steve = 340

Number of green apples picked by Steve = 15% of the total apples picked by Steve = [tex]\frac{15}{100}\times 34 = 51[/tex]

We have 3 numbers now, 44, 42 and 51.

Clearly 51 is greatest of them all.

Therefore, Steve picked the most green apples.

Jerry earns a base salary of 350 per week plus an 8% commission on all sales at his job. Which inequality shows the minimum amount in cells s Jerry must make to earn more than a 500 in a week .​

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

8% in decimal form is written out as 0.08, so right away the answer is either C or D.

Then if you have "s" = 1875, you would get:

350 + (0.08 × 1875) = 500

That would mean any number greater than 1875 will give you a total more than 500.

Therefore the answer is D.

The approximate area of the given circle is 154 square centimeter. Therefore, option D is the correct answer.

What is area of a circle?

The area of a circle is the space occupied by the circle in a two-dimensional plane. Alternatively, the space occupied within the boundary/circumference of a circle is called the area of the circle. The formula for the area of a circle is A = πr², where r is the radius of the circle.

From the given figure, radius of a circle = 7 cm.

Now, area of a circle = 22/7 ×7²

= 22×7

= 154 cm²

Therefore, option D is the correct answer.

The Answer: 13/50
Step in step:
1. The decimal number: =0.26
2. You need to write it as a fraction: 0.26/1
3. You multiply 100 to both sides of the numerator: (0.26 x 100) / (1 x 100) = 26
4. To make 26/100 to the lowest you need to find least common multiple:
LCM is 2 for 26/100
5. You need to divide the numerator & denominator by 2 : 26/100 = (26/2) / (100 / 2) = 13/50

A vehicle uses 1 1/8 gallons of gasoline to travel 13 1/2 miles. At this rate, how many miles can the vehicle travel per gallon of gasoline?

Answers

Answer:

12 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem above is related to the topic on "Equivalent Ratios." The missing term above is "the number of miles that the vehicle can travel per gallon of gasoline." In order to find this term, you have to use the "cross products."

Let n be the missing term.

[tex]1\frac{1}{8} gallons[/tex]/[tex]13\frac{1}{2} miles[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1 gallon}{n}[/tex][tex]\frac{9}{8} gallons[/tex]/[tex]\frac{27}{2} miles[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1 gallon}{n}[/tex][tex]\frac{9}{8}[/tex] x n = [tex]\frac{27}{2}[/tex] x 1 gallonn = [tex]\frac{27}{2}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{9}{8}[/tex]n = [tex]\frac{27}{2}[/tex] x [tex]\frac{8}{9}[/tex]n = 12 miles

Therefore, the vehicle can travel 12 miles per gallon of gasoline.

Answer:

12 miles per gallon of gasoline

Step-by-step explanation:

1 1/8 gallon of gasoline = 13 1/2

9/8 gallon of gasoline = 27/2 miles

1 gallon of gasoline 8 times 27/9 times 2 miles

1 gallon of gasoline = 216/18

1 gallon of gasoline = 12 miles

Hence,the car can travel 12 miles per gallon of gasoline

The rate of traveling is 12 miles per gallon
