There are 120 people in a school canteen.
Half of the people in the canteen are in year 11 students.
The number of year 11 students in the canteen is three times the number of year 10 students.
The rest of the people in the canteen are year 9 students.
the number of year 9 students : the number of year 10 students = n : 1
Work out the value of n.
You must show how you get your answer.

Answer 1

2:1

Step-by-step explanation:

List all variables

Total people=120

year 11 students=120/2=60

year 10 students=60/3=20

subtract year 10 and 11 students from the total to get the number of year 9 students

year 9 students=120-60-20

=40

year9:year10

40:20

2:1

Answer 2

Value of variable 'n' as per the given condition number of 9 year students : number of 10 year students = n:1 is equals to 2.

What is variable?

" A variable is defined as the quantity which represents the change in value  as per the given condition in a mathematical problem."

According to the question,

Total number of students in school = 120

As per the conditions given we have,

Number of 11 year students = [tex]\frac{120}{2}[/tex]

                                               = 60 people

Number of 11year students = 3 × ( Number of 10 year students)

Number of 10 year students = [tex]\frac{Number of 11 year students}{3}[/tex]

                                                   = [tex]\frac{60}{3}[/tex]

                                                   = 20 people

Number of (11year + 10year +  9year ) students  = 120  

⇒ 60 + 20 + Number of 9 year students =120                                        

Number of 9 year students = 120 - 80

                                                 = 40 people

Substitute the value in the given condition  to get the value of the variable we get,

Number of 9 year students : Number of 10 year students = n:1

⇒40 : 20 = n: 1

n = 2

Hence, value of variable 'n' as per the given condition number of 9 year students : number of 10 year students = n:1 is equals to 2.

angle A and angle B are supplementary angles. If m∠=(4x - 30) degree and m∠B =(4x-14) degree, then find the measure of ∠A

Answers

Answer:

<A = 26°

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 30 + 4x - 14 = 180

Supplementary angles sum together to make 180

=> 4x + 4x = 16x

=> -30-14 = -44

16x = 180+44

16x = 224

x = 224/16

x = 14°

4(14) - 30 = 26°

Leo wants his bowling mean to be at least 150. His scores are shown. 138, 157, 146, 129, 151

What is the lowest score for Leo’s mean to be 150.0?
(1 point)
121
146
154
179

Answers

The lowest score for Leo’s mean to be 150.0 is 179.

Mean can be described as the average of a set of numbers.

Mean = sum of number / total numbers

In order to determine the lowest score Leo can have so his mean can be at least 150, the sum of his current scores has to be determined.

Sum of scores = 138 + 157 + 146 + 129 + 151 = 721

The second step is to determine the sum of scores when his mean is 150

Sum of scores when mean is 150 = 150 x 6 = 900

Least score = 900 - 721 = 179

Select the correct answer. Evaluate the following expression when x = -4 and y = 4. A. B. C. D.

Answers

The value of given expression when x=-4 and y=4 is 1250.

The expression is missing in the question which is [tex]\dfrac{x^6-x}{4y}[/tex].

We have to solve it for x= -4 and y = 4.

Now putting the value of x and y we get,

[tex]\dfrac{x^6-x}{4y}=\dfrac{(-4)^6-(-4)}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{x^6-x}{4y}=\dfrac{4096+4}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{x^6-x}{4y}=1250[/tex]

Hence the value of given expression when x=-4 and y=4 is 1250.

We can put this into point-slope form, and then put this into slope-intercept form. Firstly, we need to find the slope. The slope is -12/12. This means it is -1. I found this by using y2-y1/x2-x1.

Next, we use point-slope form. Point-slope form is y-y1=m(x-x2). I will use the coordinate (-6, 5). y-5=-1(x-(-6) is y-5=-x-6. Once we solve for y, we get y=-x-1.

The answer is y=-x-1

The height, h, in feet of a piece of cloth tied to a waterwheel in relation to sea level as a function of time, t, in seconds can be modeled by the equation h = 15 cosine (StartFraction pi Over 20 EndFraction t). How long does it take for the waterwheel to complete one turn? 5 seconds 10 seconds 20 seconds 40 seconds.

Answers

Solving the trigonometric equation, it is found that it takes 40 seconds to complete one turn.

The height is modeled by:

[tex]h(t) = 15\cos{\left(\frac{\pi}{20}t\right)}[/tex]

The initial height is [tex]h(0) = 15[/tex], hence, one turn is completed when h(t) = 15.

[tex]h(t) = 15\cos{\left(\frac{\pi}{20}t\right)}[/tex]

[tex]15 = 15\cos{\left(\frac{\pi}{20}t\right)}[/tex]

[tex]\cos{\left(\frac{\pi}{20}t\right)} = \frac{15}{15}[/tex]

[tex]\cos{\left(\frac{\pi}{20}t\right)} = 1[/tex]

The length of one turn is of [tex]2\pi[/tex], and [tex]\cos{(2\pi)} = 1[/tex], hence, the solution is found according to:

[tex]\frac{\pi}{20}t = 2\pi[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{40\pi}{\pi}[/tex]

[tex]t = 40[/tex]

It takes 40 seconds to complete one turn.
