Roadstone Limited can resurface 7/8km of a road in a day. How many days will it take
to resurface a road of length 14 km?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

16 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of days that it will take.

7/8 km per 1 day

14 km    per x day

We have to solve the equation:

[tex]\frac{x}{1} =\frac{14}{\left( \frac{7}{8} \right) }[/tex]

[tex]\Longrightarrow x=14\times \frac{8}{7} =2\times 8=16[/tex]

A store buys 11 sweaters for $55 and sells them for $286. How much profit does the store make per sweater?

Answers

Answer:

The store makes $21 per sweater.

This is the same as the constant of proportionality between the profit made and the number of sweaters sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

$286−$55

Total Profit=$231

Profit Per Sweater=11/$231

Profit Per Sweater=$21

If store buys 11 sweaters for $55 and sells them for $286 then the  store makes a profit of $21 per sweater.

To calculate the profit per sweater, you need to subtract the cost per sweater from the selling price per sweater.

Cost per sweater = Total cost / Number of sweaters

= $55 / 11

= $5

Selling price per sweater = Total selling price / Number of sweaters

= $286 / 11

= $26

Profit per sweater = Selling price per sweater - Cost per sweater

= $26 - $5

= $21

So, the store makes a profit of $21 per sweater.

Using geometric sequence concepts, it is found that:

What is a geometric sequence?

A geometric sequence is a sequence in which the result of the division of consecutive terms is always the same, called common ratio q.

The nth term of a geometric sequence is given by:

[tex]a_n = a_1q^{n-1}[/tex]

In which [tex]a_1[/tex] is the first term.

As a function of the mth term, the nth term is given by:

[tex]a_n = a_mq^{n - m}[/tex]

Hence, considering the 8th and the 11th term, the common ratio is found as follows:

[tex]a_{11} = a_8q^3[/tex]

[tex]32q^3 = 256[/tex]

[tex]q^3 = 8[/tex]

q = 2.

Then, considering the 11th term and the common ratio, the 13th term is given as follows:

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 7 songs total

3 rock sounds, 2 reggae songs and 2 country songs

probability of choosing both country songs without returning the first song = probability of choosing country song first time × probability of choosing country song second time

probability of choosing a country song first time = # of country songs / # of total songs

# of country songs = 2

total # of songs= 7

so probability of picking a country song = 2/7

if she doesn't return the disc there are 7 - 1 = 6 more songs left and 2 - 1 = 1 is country

probability of choosing country song second time

again probability = # of country songs / total # of songs

here there are only 6 songs total and 1 of them are country

so probability = 1/6

we have probability of choosing both country songs without returning the first song = probability of choosing country song first time × probability of choosing country song second time

first probability = 2/7

second probability = 1/6

total probability = 2/7 × 1/6 = 1/21

Step-by-Step Explanation:

1 1/5 = 6/5 (improper fraction form)
2 1/7 = 15/7 (improper fraction form)

Now we can add 6/5 and 15/7. To do this we have to take the LCM of 7 and 5 which would be 35 and make the denominators equal by multiplying the denominator and numerator with such a number that gives 35 as the denominator.

=> (6 * 7)/(5 * 7) = 42/35
=> (15 * 5)/(7 * 5) = 75/35

Now we can add the fractions.

=> 42/35 + 75/35
= (42 + 75)/35
=> 117/35 or 3 12/35

Write the system of equations and construct the corresponding matrix model for the following exercise.Suppose that one of three different alleles is present in each individual in a population. In each generation the following happens: 8% of individuals carrying allele X mutate to carry allele Y, 6% mutate to allele Z; and the rest remain unchanged; 0.1% of individuals carrying allele Y mutate to carry allele Z and the rest remain unchanged; 90% of individuals carrying allele Z mutate to carry allele X and the rest remain unchanged.

Answers

The system of equations and the corresponding matrix model for the following above is given and explained below.

What is a system of equations?

A system of Equations refers to a set of equations that one must solve or interact with all at once.

What is the system of equation for the exercise above?

Let's call the person who carries alleles X, Y, and Z - Xt, Yt, and Zt, respectively.

Also, lets assume that 5 percent of X alleles mutate from X to Y and 3 percent mutate from X to Z in each generation, thus the percent of X alleles remains constant at:

100 - (5 percent + 3 percent) = 92 percent.

Also, because only 0.1 percent of Y alleles evolve from Y to Z, the percentage of Y alleles remains constant at 99.9%.

We must also consider that 90 percent of Z alleles do not change from Z to X, implying that 10% of Z alleles are indifferent.

Hence, the various equations describing the system will be given as:

Xt+1 = 0.92Xt + 0.92Zt

Yt+1 = 0.05Xt + 0.999Yt

Zt+1 = 0.03Xt + 0.01Yt + 0.1Zt

or

Xt+1 = 0.92Xt + 0.000Yt + 0.9Zt

Yt+1 = 0.05Xt + 0.999Yt + 0.0Zt

Zt+1 = 0.03Xt + 0.01Yt + 0.1Zt.



What is the Matrix Model for the above system of equations?

The Matrix Model is given as follows:

Mick recently had new carpet installed. the cost of the carpet including installation was $8.14 per square foot before any discounts. the rectangular room he had carpeted measured 24 feet long and 18 feet wide. if mick actually paid $3,235.16, what discount percentage did he receive? assume there are no taxes.

Answers

Answer:

8%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s first determine the cost before any discount.

To do so, we first need to determine the area to be carpeted:

Area of Rectangle = Length × Width = 24 ft × 18 ft = 432 square feet.

To find the cost before discount we need to multiply the area by the cost per square foot:

Cost Before Discount = Area × Cost per square foot

Cost Before Discount = 432 square feet × $8.14 per square foot

Cost Before Discount = $3,516.48

We can now determine the discount percentage he received:

Cost After Discount = Cost Before Discount − (Discount % × Cost Before Disc.)

$3,235.16 = $3,516.48 – (Discount % × $3,516.48)

To solve, it is easiest to plug in each answer to see which discount percentage is the correct solution (i.e. “work backwards” from the given answers) or use the equation solver on our calculator.

We find that a discount of 8% is the correct solution.

If you instead prefer to use algebra to solve for the discount percentage, here are the steps.

We will rewrite the equation, using x to represent “Discount %”.

$3,235.16 = $3,516.48 − (x × $3,516.48)

$3,235.16 = $3,516.48 − $3,516.48x

Factoring out $3,516.48 we have:

$3,235.16 = $3,516.48(1 − x)

Note: Once you get comfortable with this type of problem you should skip straight to the step above.

Dividing both sides by $3,516.48 we have:

$3,235.16$3,516.48=1−x

0.92 = 1 − x

x = 0.08 = 8%

In a field, water flows down through the soil and then through a layer of loose rocks before the flow stops.

What type of material did the water most likely encounter when it stopped?

a layer of granite
another soil layer
a layer of rocks with cracks
another layer of loose rocks

Answers

Answer:

A layer of granite

Step-by-step explanation:

This layer so granite is impervious hence is not porous. Due to its non-porosity, water cannot pass through it. These types of rocks are important in aquifers. When an impervious rocks sandwich a pervious layer or are below a pervious rock, an aquifer is created.

The type of material did the water most likely encounter when it stopped is, ''A layer of granite''.

What is an expression?

Mathematical expression is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Since, We get;

An igneous rock which is formed by the cooling of a molten body of rock and more cooling of the molten body of rock (magma) is a Granite. The surrounding rock is more dense than the the body of molten material and they rise in form of bulb shaped known as plugin.

After rising, the granite slowly cools down, visible crystals that makes up layers are formed during the slow cooling process.

Water hardly penetrate through a layer of granite because of it's dense nature. The layers of granite prevent the vertical movement of water.

In this case water pass through the layer of rock because it is less dense, but it can't pass through a layer of granite because it is very dense and if forms a bulb(onion) like shape.

Thus, The type of material did the water most likely encounter when it stopped is, ''A layer of granite''.
