Out of 120 customers asked at a restaurant, 38 rounded their bill up to the next whole dollar and donated the difference to the local Children's Hospital. How many consecutive customers must round up the bills so that the percentage of people who donated increases to 50%?

A. 44 customers

B. 40 customers

C. 36 customers

D. 32 customers

Answers

Answer 1

Using proportions, it is found that 44 consecutive customers must round up the bills so that the percentage of people who donated increases to 50%, so option A is correct.

A proportion is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Considering that 38 out of 120 customers rounded their bill up, with x customers added, the proportion will be of 38 + x out of 120 + x.

The desired proportion is 0.5, hence:

[tex]\frac{38 + x}{120 + x} = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]38 + x = 60 + 0.5x[/tex]

[tex]0.5x = 22[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{22}{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]x = 44[/tex]

44 customers, so option A.

Suppose that u⃗ =⟨8,−2⟩ and v⃗ =⟨5,−5⟩. What is the angle between u⃗ and v⃗ , rounded to the nearest degree?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  31°

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to find the difference angle is to look at the angle of the quotient. We can use complex numbers to represent the vectors for the purpose of that math. The magnitude is not important in this problem, so we do not have to finish the division.

  (8 -2i)/(5 -5i) = (8 -2i)(5 +5i)/((5 -5i)(5 +5i)) = (40 -10i +40i +10)/( )

The numerator is 50 +30i, which has an angle of ...

  arctan(30/50) ≈ 30.96° ≈ 31°

_____

Additional comment

Effectively, we have found the angle as the angle of the product of one vector with the conjugate of the other, when written as complex numbers. In vector terms, you might use the definition of the dot product. That seems to take a lot more math.

  u·v = |u|×|v|×cos(θ)

  θ = arccos(u·v/(|u|×|v|))

  θ = arccos((8·5 +(-2)(-5))/√((8² +(-2)²)(5² +(-5)²))) = arccos(50/√3400)

Find the equation of the line through (−8,1) which is perpendicular to the line y=−x/2−6.
Give your answer in the form y=mx+b.

Answers

Linear equations can represent parallel lines, perpendicular lines and lines with no relationship at all.

The equation of the line in form of y =mx + b is [tex]\mathbf{y = 2x + 17}[/tex]

The equation is given as:

[tex]\mathbf{y =-\frac x2 - 6}[/tex]

For a linear equation y = mx + b, the slope of the equation is m

So, by comparison:

[tex]\mathbf{m =-\frac 12}[/tex]

The relationship between the slopes of perpendicular lines is:

[tex]\mathbf{m_2 =-\frac 1{m_1}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{m_2 =-\frac 1{-1/2}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{m_2 =2 }[/tex]

This means that, the slope of the line that passes through point (-8,1) is 2

The line equation is then calculated as:

[tex]\mathbf{y = m(x - x_1) + y_1}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]\mathbf{y = 2(x + 8) + 1}[/tex]

Open brackets

[tex]\mathbf{y = 2x + 16 + 1}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]\mathbf{y = 2x + 17}[/tex]

Hence, the equation of the line in form of y =mx + b is [tex]\mathbf{y = 2x + 17}[/tex]

What is 50% of 35 like simplified

Answers

Answer:

It can't get more simple than that (*nose growing*)

Step-by-step explanation:

50% of 35 means 35 is 100% right? 50 is half of 100. So 50% of 35 will be half of 35, agree? So you multiply by crossing

35 = 100%

x = 50%

100 * x = 35 * 50 (do this math, you can multiply 35 by 5 then add 0)

100x = 1750

x = 1750 / 100

x = 17,5

Is 17,5 half of 35? You could have also done 35 / 2. It would be the same result because 50% is an easy percentage to work with.

This image shows that when a football is kicked, the nearest defensive player is 6 feet from the kicker’s foot. The height of the punted football, f(x), in feet, can be modeled by the equation. Round all answers to 2 decimals. ()=−0.0152 +1.25+2 a. (2 points) What is the maximum height of the punt?

Answers

Using the vertex, it is found that the maximum height of the punt is of 27.7 feet.

The height of the punt, after x seconds, is given by:

[tex]f(x) = -0.0152x^2 + 1.25x + 2[/tex]

It is a quadratic equation with coefficients [tex]a = -0.0152, b = 1.25, c = 2[/tex].

The maximum value is the value of the function at the vertex, hence:

[tex]f_V = -\frac{\Delta}{4a} = -\frac{b^2 - 4ac}{4a}[/tex]

Applying the coefficients:

[tex]f_V = -\frac{b^2 - 4ac}{4a} = -\frac{(1.25)^2 - 4(-0.0152)(2)}{4(-0.0152)} = 27.7[/tex]

The maximum height of the punt is of 27.7 feet.

The angle of elevation of the top of a cliff from the point Q on the ground is 30°. On moving a distance of 20
m towards the foot of the cliff the angle of elevation increases to xº. If the height of the cliff is 17.3 m, then
find xo

Answers

On moving a distance of 20m towards the foot of the cliff the angle of

elevation increases to 60° .

The situation forms 2 right angle triangle.

The height of the cliff is the opposite side of the 2 triangles formed.

Using trigonometric ratio, the bigger triangle  can be represented as

follows:

tan 30 = opposite / adjacent

Let the distance from point Q to the foot of the cliff be d.

Therefore,

tan 30° = 17.3 / d

d = 17.3 / tan 30

d = 17.3 / 0.57735026919

d = 29.9644789709

d ≈ 30 m

Let's find the new angle when he moves 20 m towards the foot of the cliff.

The smaller triangle formed is used to find the new angle.

Therefore,

The new distance  from the foot of the cliff (adjacent side) = 30 - 20  = 10 m

tan x° = 17.3 / 10

tan x° = 1.73

x = tan ⁻¹ 1.73

x = 59.9705982385
