a model truck is 13.5 inches long 7.5 inches wide. the original truck was 12 feet long. how wide was the truck?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

w = 6ft 8in

Step-by-step explanation:

the proportions will be the same

w/7.5 = 12/13.5

multiply both sides by 7.5

w = 12/13.5 * 7.5

w = 6.6666666667ft

w = 6ft 8in

Answer 2

The original truck was 6.67 feet wide.

What is ratio?

"It is a comparison of two or more numbers that indicates their sizes in relation to each other."

What is proportion?

"It is an equation in which two ratios are set equal to each other."

For given example,

A model truck is 13.5 inches long 7.5 inches wide.

The ratio of length to width of a model truck would be,

13.5 : 7.5                       ...........................(1)

The original truck was 12 feet long.

This means the original truck was 144 inches long.

Let 'x' be the width (in inches) of the original truck.

So, the ratio of the length to the width of the original truck would be,

144 : x                           .................................(2)

Also, the ratios given by (1) and (2) must be in proportion.

[tex]\Rightarrow \frac{13.5}{7.5} = \frac{144}{x} \\\\\Rightarrow 13.5 \times x = 144 \times 7.5\\\\\Rightarrow \bold{x=80~inches}\\\\\Rightarrow \bold{x=6.67~feet}[/tex]

Therefore, the original truck was 6.67 feet wide.

Find the equation (in terms of x ) of the line through the points (-3,4) and (1,-8)

Answers

Answer:

A(-3,4) B(1,-8)

y-y1/x-x1 =y2-y1/x2-x1

y-4/x--3 = -8-4/1--3

y-4/x+3 = -12/1+3

y-4/x+3 =-12/4

y-4/x+3 = -3

y-4 = -3(x+3)

y-4=-3x-9

y+3x +9-4=

y+3x+5=0

Answer:

y = -3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

-3, 4 and 1, -8

1 - -3 = 4

-8 - 4 = -12

[tex]\frac{-12}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-3}{1}[/tex] = -3

gradient/slope = -3

now substituting in the point -3, 4 to find the y intercept:

4= -3 x -3 + c

4 = 9 + c

-5 = c

y intercept = -5

equation is y = -3x - 5

? divided by 1/3 = 6/7 what is the fraction that makes this true

Answers

2/7. multiply 1/3 by 6/7 and you’ll get the answer which is 2/7.

The answer would be 2/7 if 2/7 is divided by 1/3 = 6/7 after applying the concept of basic arithmetic operation.

What is a fraction?

Fraction number consists of two parts, one is the top of the fraction number which is called the numerator and the second is the bottom of the fraction number which is called the denominator.

It is given that:

divided by 1/3 = 6/7

Let the missing number is:

x divided by 1/3 = 6/7

x = (6/7)(1/3)

x = 2/7

find the ratio of volumes of two cuboids whose sides are in the ratio 3/1

Answers

Answer:

The ratio of volumes is of 27.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cuboid:

A cuboid has dimensions length l, width w and height h. The volume is given by:

[tex]V = lwh[/tex]

Multiplying dimensions by 3:

This means that l = 3l, w = 3w, h = 3h. So

[tex]V_m = 3l(3w)(3h) = 3*3*3*lwh = 27lwh[/tex]

Ratio of volumes:

[tex]\frac{V_m}{V} = \frac{27lwh}{lwh} = 27[/tex]

The ratio of volumes is of 27.

Additional comment

Often, in math, when we talk about the difference between A and B, we mean specifically the value (A-B). In plain English, when we talk about the difference between A and B, we mean the positive difference--the value obtained by subtracting the smaller number from the larger one.

Here, the difference between New York and London temperatures would ordinarily be interpreted in math to be -3 -4 = -7°C. That is not an answer choice, so we must assume the positive difference, 7°C, is intended.

A physical fitness association is including the mile run in its high school fitness test. The time for this event is known to possess a normal distribution with a mean of seconds and a standard deviation of seconds. Find the probability that a randomly selected high school student can run the mile in less than seconds. Round to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

This probability is the p-value of Z given [tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex], considering X as less than X seconds, [tex]\mu[/tex] as the mean and [tex]\sigma[/tex] as the standard deviation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question:

Mean [tex]\mu[/tex], standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex].

Find the probability that a randomly selected high school student can run the mile in less than X seconds.

This probability is the p-value of Z given [tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex], considering X as less than X seconds, [tex]\mu[/tex] as the mean and [tex]\sigma[/tex] as the standard deviation.

Write the equation of the quadratic whose Vertex is at ( −4,−5) and passes through the point (−3, −7)

Answers

To Find :

The equation of the quadratic whose Vertex is at ( −4,−5) and passes through the point (−3, −7).

Solution :

A quadratic equation in vertex form is given by :

[tex]y = a(x-h)^2 + k[/tex]  

( Here, h, k is the vertex )

y = a(x-(-4))² + (-5)

y = a(x+4)² - 5

Now, putting (-3,-7) in above equation:

-7 = a( -3 + 4 )² - 5

a(1)² = -2

a = -2

Therefore, the equation of the quadratic is y = -2(x+4)² - 5 .

Mr. Reid​'s storage bin is 4 feet​ long, 3 feet​ wide, and 7 feet tall. Can he fit 81 boxes that each has a volume of 1 cubic foot in his bin​? Explain your answer

Answers

Answer:

Mr. Reid will be able to fit 81 boxes that each has a volume of 1 cubic foot in his bin, since it has a capacity of 84 cubic feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Mr. Reid's storage bin is 4 feet long, 3 feet wide, and 7 feet tall, to determine if he can fit 81 boxes that each has a volume of 1 cubic foot in his bin, the following calculation, knowing that the volume of a rectangular prism arises from multiplying its height by its width and its length:

4 x 3 x 7 = X

12 x 7 = X

84 = X

84 - (81 x 1) = X

84 - 81 = X

3 = X

Therefore, Mr. Reid will be able to fit 81 boxes that each has a volume of 1 cubic foot in his bin, since it has a capacity of 84 cubic feet.

University of Florida researchers in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering have invented a technique that rapidly detects traces of TNT (Today, Spring 2005). The method, which involves shining a laser on a potentially contaminated object, provides instantaneous results and gives no false positives. In this application, a false positive would occur if the laser detected traces of TNT when, in fact, no TNT were actually present on the object. Let A be the event that the laser light detects traces of TNT. Let B be the event that the object contains no traces of TNT. The probability of a false positive is 0.

Required:
Write this probability in terms of A and B using symbols such as U, ∩ and |.

From the question, we understand that A and B must occur to get a positive and the result is 0.

The probability of A and B is represented as: P(A n B)

Include the result (0), we get:

Answers

Answer:

After one year the population will be 33 deers, and after two years it will be 36 deers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a population of 30 deer is introduced into a wildlife sanctuary, and it is estimated that the sanctuary can sustain up to 200 deer, and absent constraints, the population would grow by 10% per year, to predict the population after one year and after two years, the following calculations must be performed:

A)

30 x 1.1 = X

33 = X

B)

30 x 1.1 ^ 2 = X

30 x 1.21 = X

36.3 = X

Therefore, after one year the population will be 33 deers, and after two years it will be 36 deers.
