four pumpkins weigh 26 pounds altogether. Pumkin one weighs four less than three times the weight of Pumkin threee. Pumkin four weighs twice as much as pumkin One. Pumpkin Two weighs five more pounds than Pumkin three. What does each pumpkin weigh

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5, 8, 3, 10 lbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this using a system of equations! We will call pumpkins [tex]a, b, c, d[/tex].

Our equations are thus:

[tex]a + b + c + d = 26[/tex]

[tex]a = 3c - 4[/tex]

[tex]d = 2a[/tex]

[tex]b = c + 5[/tex]

So now we just need to solve this system of equations.

We can start by solving for the value of pumpkin [tex]c[/tex] and go from there. So first we substitute some equations around.

First we write out pumpkin [tex]d[/tex] in terms of [tex]a[/tex].

[tex]d = 2a = 2(3c - 4) = 6c - 8[/tex]

And now we put the three equations into the first equation:

[tex]a + b + c + d = 26\\(3c-4)+(c+5)+(c)+(6c-8)=26[/tex]

Then we simplify to get:

[tex]11 c - 7 = 26[/tex]

[tex]11c = 33\\c = 3[/tex]

So we know pumpkin [tex]c[/tex] weighs 3 pounds.

Then we use the equations from before to get the value of the other pumpkins:

[tex]a = 3c-4 = (3*3)-4=9-4=5\\d = 2a = 2*5=10\\b = c + 5 = 3 + 5 = 8[/tex]

And we can check our results by putting into first equation:

[tex]5+8+3+10=26[/tex]

So it works out!

Thus our pumpkins weigh 5, 8, 3, 10 lbs each.

Big chickens: The weights of broilers (commercially raised chickens) are approximately normally distributed with mean 1535 grams and standard deviation 169 grams. Use the TI-84 Plus calculator to answer the following. (a) What proportion of broilers weigh between 1136 and 1243 grams? (b) What is the probability that a randomly selected broiler weighs more than 1600 grams? (c) Is it unusual for a broiler to weigh more than 1710 grams? Round the answers to at least four decimal places. Part 1 of 3 The proportion of broilers that weigh between 1136 and 1243 grams is .

Answers

Answer:

(a) 0.0329

(b) 0.3502

(c) It is not unusual for a broiler to weigh more than 1710 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the TI-84 Plus calculator:

z-score is z = (x-μ)/σ,

where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

mean is 1535 grams and standard deviation is 169 grams.

(a) What proportion of broilers weigh between 1136 and 1243 grams?

For x = 1136 grams

z = (x-μ)/σ

= 1136 - 1535/169

= -2.36095

Determining the probability value from Z-Table:

= P(x = 1136)

= P(z =-2.36095)

= 0.0091142

For x = 1243 grams

z = (x-μ)/σ

= 1243 - 1535/169

= -1.72781

Determining the probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 1243) = 0.042011

The proportion of broilers weigh between 1136 and 1243 grams is calculated as:

P(x = 1243) - P(x = 1136)

= 0.042011 - 0.0091142

= 0.0328968

≈ 0.0329

(b) What is the probability that a randomly selected broiler weighs more than 1600 grams?

For x = 1600 grams

z = (x-μ)/σ

= 1600 - 1535/169

= 0.38462

Determining the Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<1600) = 0.64974

P(x>1600) = 1 - P(x<1600) = 0.35026

The probability that a randomly selected broiler weighs more than 1600 grams is 0.3502

(c) Is it unusual for a broiler to weigh more than 1710 grams?

For x = 1600 grams

z = (x - μ)/σ

= 1710 - 1535/169

= 1.0355

P-value from Z-Table:

P(x < 1710) = 0.84978

P(x > 1710) = 1 - P(x < 1710) = 0.15022

From the above calculation, it is not unusual for a broiler to weigh more than 1710 grams because 15.022% of the broilers weigh 1710 grams.

If a hotel has 126 rooms. 4 floors in all . Ok if 334 rooms have been cleaned how many are left to be cleaned

Answers

Answer:

170 rooms left to clean.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are implying that there are 126 rooms for each floor of the 4 floors total.

Given the scenario that there are 126 rooms for each floor with 4 floors total with 334 of the rooms cleaned. The rooms left to clean are calculated by finding the difference between the total amount of rooms, and the rooms cleaned.

This relationship can be given by:

#total rooms - #cleaned rooms = #rooms left to clean.

The total rooms are found by multiplying the number of floors by the number of rooms on each floor: 126 × 4 = 504 rooms total.

Now we have all the variables needed, and can solve for the missing one:

(126×4) - (334) = #rooms left to clean

504 - 334 = 170 = #rooms left to clean

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 5inches long. The shorter leg is 1 inch shorter than the longer leg. Find the side lengths of the triangle.

Length of the shorter leg:

Length of the longer leg:
Length of the hypotenuse:

Answers

Answer:

Hypotenuse = 5 in

Longer leg = 4 in

Shorter leg = 3 in

Step-by-step explanation

The longer leg = x

The shorter leg = x - 1

Now through Pythagoras theorem:

hyp^2 = leg1^2 + leg2^2

5^2 = x^2 + (x - 1)^2

25 = x^2 + x^2 - 2 x + 1^2

25 = 2 x^2 - 2 x + 1

2 x^2 - 2 x - 24 = 0

2 ( x^2 - x - 12) = 0

2 (x - 4) (x + 3) =0

then x = 4  or x = - 3

We use the positive answer since we are looking for a length

then longer leg is 4 inches long,

and therefore the shorter one is one inch shorter than 4 in . That is:

shorter leg = 3 inches

How do you do this question?

Answers

Answer:

D and E

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (x + 1)²

If x = t + 1, then y = (t + 1 + 1)² = t² + 4t + 4.

If x = e²ᵗ + 1, then y = (e²ᵗ + 1 + 1)² = e⁴ᵗ + 4e²ᵗ + 4.

If x = cos t, then y = (cos t + 1)² = cos²t + 2 cos t + 1.

If x = t − 1, then y = (t − 1 + 1)² = t².

If x = t, then y = (t + 1)² = t² + 2t + 1.
