A camper lights an oil lantern at 12 noon lets it burn continuously. Once the lantern is lit, the lantern burns oil at a constant tare of each hour. At 2 p.m., the amount of oil left in the lantern is 63 ounces. At 5 p.m., the amount of oil left in the lantern is 61 1/2 ounces. Based on the average rate of oil burning per hour, how much oil, in ounces, was in the lantern at 12 noon?
Show your work.

Answers

Answer 1

Unit rate is the quantity of an amount of something at a rate of one of another quantity.

The rate at which the oil burns.

1 hour = 2/3 ounce

At 12 noon = 193/3 = 64.33 ounces

At 2 pm = 63 ounces

At 5 pm = 61 ounces

The amount of oil at 12 noon is 64.33 ounces.

What is a unit rate?

It is the quantity of an amount of something at a rate of one of another quantity.

In 2 hours, a man can walk for 6 miles

In 1 hour, a man will walk for 3 miles.

We have,

A camper lights an oil lantern at 12 noon and lets it burn continuously. Once the lantern is lit, the lantern burns oil at a constant rate each hour.

At 2 p.m., the amount of oil left in the lantern is 63 ounces.

At 5 p.m., the amount of oil left in the lantern is 61 ounces.

This means,

Amount of oil burnt in the lantern from 2 pm to 5 pm.

= 63 ounces - 61 ounces

= 2 ounces

Now,

3 hours = 2 ounces

2 hours = 1.33 ounces

1 hour = 0.67 ounces

Now,

The number of hours from 12 noon to 2 pm.

= 2 hours

So,

The amount of oil at 12 noon.

= 63 + 4/3

= (189 + 4) / 3

= 193/3 ounces

Thus,

The amount of oil at 12 noon is 65 ounces.

Based on the experiment if a card is chosen 200 times how many times would you expect to pick a card without stripes?

Answers

The number of expected times to pick a card without strips is 130.

What is a percentage?

The percentage is calculated by dividing the required value by the total value and multiplying by 100.

Example:

Required percentage value = a

total value = b

Percentage = a/b x 100

Example:

50% = 50/100 = 1/2

25% = 25/100 = 1/4

20% = 20/100 = 1/5

10% = 10/100 = 1/10

We have,

The percentage of stripes from the 120 times.

= 42/120 x 100

= 35%

Now,

Based on this experiment,

The number of strip cards out of 200 times.

= 35% of 200

= 35/100 x 200

= 35 x 2

= 70

The number of times to pick a card without strips.

= 200 - 70

= 130

Thus,

The expected number of times to pick a card without stripes is 130.

The number of boys and girls in a class are in the ratio 7:5. The number of boys is 8 more than the number of girls. What is the total class strength? *​

Answers

Answer:  48 students total

======================================================

Explanation:

If there were 7 boys and 5 girls, then we'd have the ratio of 7:5. The boys are listed first because of how your teacher mentions boys first to set up the ratio. The order is important. That means 7:5 is different from 5:7.

With 7 boys and 5 girls, we see that there are 7-5 = 2 more boys compared to girls, and not 8. The jump from 2 to 8 is "times 4", which means we'll need to multiply each gender count by 4 to get to the class size we want

boys: 7 ---> 7*4 = 28

girls: 5 ---> 5*4 = 20

Having 28 boys and 20 girls will lead to the ratio 28:20, and it reduces fully to 7:5 when we divide both parts by the GCF 4.

The total number of students is 28+20 = 48

-----------------

Here's another way we can solve.

x = number of girls

x+8 = number of boys, since there are 8 more

The ratio of boys to girls is 7:5, meaning,

(number of boys)/(number of girls) = 7/5

(x+8)/x = 7/5

(x+8)*5 = x*7 .... cross multiply

5x+40 = 7x

40 = 7x-5x

40 = 2x

2x = 40

x = 40/2

x = 20

There are x = 20 girls and x+8 = 20+8 = 28 boys. So 20+48 = 48 total.

How to solve the expression?

Here we want to solve the following expression:

(3 + 5)*5 - 20*(2 + 5)

The first thing that you need to solve when working in these type of problems, are the operations inside the parenthesis, then we will get:

(3 + 5)*5 - 20*(2 + 5) = (8)*5 - 20*(7)

Now we need to solve the two products, we will get:

(8)*5 - 20*(7) = 40 - 140 = -100

A manufacturer of all-in-one printers is concerned that the warranty costs for a particular printer model exceed the amount expected by the company. Based on a review of completed warranty claims, the distribution of the warranty cost per claim is skewed to the right with mean $150 and standard deviation $50. A random sample of 25 completed warranty claims is selected, and the sample mean cost is recorded. Suppose the process of selecting a random sample of 25 completed warranty claims and recording the sample mean cost is repeated for a total of 100 samples. Which of the following best describes a dotplot created from the 100 sample means?
(A) The dotplot has the same shape as the distribution of the population with mean $150 and standard deviation $25.
(B) The dotplot has the same shape as the distribution of the population with mean $150 and standard deviation $50.
(C) The dotplot has the same shape as the distribution of the population with mean $150 and standard deviation $100.
(D) The dotplot is closer to approximately normal than the distribution of the population with mean $150 and standard deviation $10.
(E) The dotplot is closer to approximately normal than the distribution of the population with mean $150 and standard deviation $50.

Answer: D. The dotplot is closer to approximately normal than the distribution of the population with mean $150 and standard deviation $10.

The equation isn't explicitly stated or well written. Thus, we would assume two (2) case scenario for the equation of line by altering the signs.

Scenario 1;

y = 9 + x

Mathematically, the equation of a line is given by the formula;

Equation of straight line is y = mx + c

Where;

m is the slope.

x and y are the points

c is the intercept.

Comparing the two equations, we have;

y = mx + c = 9 + x

Constant, c = 9

Slope, m = 1

Scenario 2.

y = 9 - x

y = mx + c = 9 - x

Constant, c = 9

Slope, m = -1

What is volume?

In three dimensions, everything takes up some space. What is being measured here is the area's volume. The volume of an object is the area occupied inside its three-dimensional boundaries. It is referred to as the object's capability on occasion.

The amount required to fill an object can be determined by finding its volume, for example, how much water is required to fill a bottle, aquarium, or water tank.

Given

dimensions of box 20 x 13 x 12, 12 x 12 x 12 and 20 x 10 x 6

volume of box 1 = 20 x 13 x 12 = 3120 cubic inches

volume of box 2 = 1728 cubic inches

volume of box 3 = 20 x 10 x 6 = 1200 cubic inch

oranges in box 1 = 96

oranges in box 2 = 53

oranges in box 3 = 37

and radius of  orange  = 32./2 = 1.6 inches

volume of each orange = 4/3πr³

volume of each orange = 4/3(3.14)(1.6)³

volume of each orange = 4/3(3.14)(4.096)

volume of each orange =  17.14 cubic inches

here one orange will cover 17.14 cubic inches.

7. let the dimension of box is 15 x 12 x 16

volume of box is = 15 x 12 x 16 = 2880 cubic inches

the number of oranges in box will be 2880/17.14 = 168 oranges

Hence there will be 17.14 cubic inch per orange volume is covered, and 168 oranges will be in box for given dimensions.

Answers

To find the answer, we can begin by converting 9/16 to a denominator of 32. This can be done by multiplying everything by 2:

9 • 2 = 18
16 • 2 = 32

Our new fraction is 18/32. Now to subtract:

18/32 - 4/32 = 14/32

With our new fraction, we can divide the numerator and denominator by 2 to find that:

18/32 - 4/32 = 7/16

Hence, our final difference is option C.
