The books have been sorted into fiction and nonfiction. The number of fiction books is 5 less than 4 times the number of nonfiction books. The books are 70% fiction. Choose the equation that best represents this scenario.
x over quantity 4 times x minus 5 end quantity equals 30 over 100
x over quantity 4 times x minus 5 end quantity equals 30 over 70

Answers

Answer 1

The number of fiction books are 7 and number of non fiction books are 3 respectively

let

number of fiction books = x

number of non fiction books = y

x = 4y - 5

Total books = z

x = 70% of z

y = 30% of z

x + y = z

4y - 5 + 30%(z) = z

4y - 5 + 0.3z = z

4y - 5 = z - 0.3z

4y - 5 = 0.7x

4y - 5 = 0.7z

4(0.3z) - 5 = 0.7z

1.2z - 5 = 0.7z

-5 = 0.7z - 1.2z

-5 = - 0.5z

z = -5/-0.5

z = 10

Therefore,

the number of non fiction = 30% of z

= 0.3 × 10

= 3

number of fiction = 70% of z

= 0.7 × 10

= 7

Alex has 14 bulbs to make a string of holiday lights. How many distinct arrangements can he make if
he has 3 red bulbs, 4 green bulbs, 2 blue bulbs, and 5 yellow bulbs?

Answers

We have "9 sockets choose 3" for the 3 red lights. That's (9C3) ways.

After screwing in those 3 red bulbs, there remain only 6 open sockets.

We have "6 sockets choose 4" for the 4 yellow lights. That's (6C4) ways.

After screwing in those 4 red bulbs, there remain only 2 open sockets.

We have "2 sockets choose 2" for the blue lights. That's (2C2) = 1 way.

After screwing in those 2 bulbs, all the sockets have a bulb in them.

Answer (9C3)(6C4)(2C2) = 1260.

Pls help this is timed and I don’t understand

Answers

Answer:

178

Step-by-step explanation:

All right!!

Line l is parellel to line m.

So if r is 91 then we can infer that s helps it make a 180 degree angle/straight line.

So 180 - 91 = 89

s = 89

If the two lines are parallel then s = u because of inner angles/outer angles stuff.

If s=u then u = 89 as well.

And because of vertical angles, t =u so t = 89.

Now the question asks to find t + u, so t + u = 89 + 89 = 178

If sin theta < 0 and cot theta < 0, which quadrant(s)

could the terminal side of theta lie?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

sinθ < 0 means below the x axis

cotθ = cosθ/sinθ < 0

As sinθ  is already < 0 means cosθ has to be > 0 meaning right of the y axis.

Right of y and below x is the IV quadrant.

The quadrant in which angle theta lie if sin theta < 0 and cot theta < 0 exists Quadrant IV (4).

What is meant by Trigonometric Identities?

Trigonometric Identities are equality conditions that hold for all possible values of the variables in the equation and use trigonometry functions. There exists numerous unique trigonometric identities that relate a triangle's side length and angle.

here, we have,

Sine, cosine, and tangent are the fundamental three operations in trigonometry. The cotangent, secant, and cosecant functions are derived from these three basic functions. On these functions, all trigonometrical notions exists built.

Trigonometric identities are equality conditions in trigonometry that hold for all values of the variables that appear and are defined on both sides of the equivalence. These exists identities that, geometrically speaking, involve certain functions of one or more angles.

sinθ < 0 means below the x axis

cotθ = cosθ/sinθ < 0

we have to use bodamas rule..

A patients IV bag contains 750mL. Four hours later, the IV bag contains 450mL.

a) Determine the rate at which the bag is draining.
b) Use your answer from (a) to predict how many mL of IV fluid are left in the bag after 6 hours.

Answers

Answers:
a) 75ml/hr
b) 0ml left

Explanation:
a) 750ml - 450ml = 300ml (This is how much we know the bag drained within 4hrs)

300ml/4=75ml

so now we know the rate of drain is 75ml/hr

b) since rate is 75ml/hr:
75*6=450
450-450=0

Hence there will be no fluid left for the patient.

(a) The rate at which the bag is draining is 75mL/h.

(b) After 6 hours, the remaining fluid is =0 mL.

What is rate?

Rate is a measurement of change of a quantity with respect to another quantity.

Given that,

Initial volume of bag=750 mL,

After 4 hours later, the volume of bag= 450.

(a)

To determine the rate of draining,

The change of volume in 4 hours= 750-450=300

The change of volume in 1 hour = 300/4=75

So, the rate of draining= 75mL

(b)

To determine the remaining volume of bag after 6 hours,

The volume drains in 1 hour=75 mL

The volume drains in 6 hours = 75×6=450

The remaining fluid = 450-450=0

The fluid remains after 6 hours is 0mL.

7. Jairaj has 20 50-cent and 10-cent coins altogether. He has a total of $6.80 How many 50-cent coins does he have?​

Answers

Jairaj has 13 50 cent coins

Answer:

He will have 8 50-cent coins

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number of 10-cent coins

Let y = the number of 50-cent coins

x + y = 20         y = 20 - x

[Set up an equation] .10x + .50y = 6.80

[Multiply both sides by 100] 10x + 50y = 680

[Plug-in] 10x + 50(20 - x) = 680

[Multiply] 10x + 1,000 - 50x = 680

[Combine like terms & subtract 1,000 from both sides] -40x = -320

[Divide both sides by -40] x = 8 coins
