the average rain fall in cuba in the summer is 5.3 inches per month. if cuba gets 6.3 inches in june and 7.1 in july how much rain do they need in august to exceed their average

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

They need more than 2.5 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

average = 5.3

June: 6.3

July: 7.1

August: x

The average of the amounts for June, July, and August is

(6.3 + 7.1 + x)/3

To exceed the average, the average must be greater than 5.3.

(6.3 + 7.1 + x)/3 > 5.3

Multiply both sides by 3.

6.3 + 7.1 + x > 15.9

x + 13.4 > 15.9

Subtract 13.4 from both sides.

x > 2.5

Answer: They need more than 2.5 inches.

Charlie is reading about animal hearts in a kids science magazine. He learns that a nestling (young) Striped Horned Owls heart weighs approximately 1.072 grams and blue whale's heart weighs 400 lbs. He is eager to share what he learned with his friends over lunch the next day and tells them that a blue whale's heart and a striped horned owl's heart are two orders of magnitude apart. Do you agree with Charlie's statement? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

Charlie's statement is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the owls heart weighs 1.072 grams

and the Whale's heart weighs 400lbs

let us convert from pounds to grams to have a uniform unit

400lbs = 181,437grams

Now when two readings or quantities are two orders apart it means that they differ by a factor of 100

let us solve for the difference between the two hearts

181,437grams- 1.072 grams= 181 435.928 grams

the difference is more than two orders, hence the statement is not correct

The height of a building is 72 m. Find the angle of elevation from a point on ground level that is 55 m away from the base of the building

Answers

Answer:

52.6 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

tan^-1(72/55)

Angle of elevation is equals to 52°7'(approximately).

What is angle of elevation?

" Angle of elevation is the angle between the horizontal plane and  line of sight from the point of observation."

Formula used

In a right angled triangle,

tanθ = ( opposite side) / adjacent side)

According to the question,

As shown in diagram

Height of the building (AB) = 72m

Distance between base of the building and point of observation

(BC)= 55m

Angle of elevation = θ

Substitute the value in the formula we have,

 tanθ = AB / BC

          = 72 / 55

⇒ θ = tan⁻¹ (72 /55)

      = tan ⁻¹(1.3091)

      = 52° 7' (approximately)

Hence, angle of elevation is equals to 52°7'(approximately).

Step-by-step explanation:

trust man just trust

Answer:

5) 52

6) $190.73

Step-by-step explanation:

5)

Let the unknown number be x.

40 is 77% of x

40 = 0.77x

Divide both sides by 0.77

x = 52

Answer: the number is 52.

6)

We first calculate the amount of tax which is 6.875% of $178.46.

6.875% of $178.46 =

= 0.06875 * $178.46

= $12.27

The amount of tax is $12.27.

Now we add the amount of tax to the price before tax.

$178.46 + $12.27 = $190.73

Answer:

Part A: 15.55

Part B: 0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

The giraffe is already 14.29 so when you add the length of its tongue (equation 14.29 + 1.26) then that would equal 15.55

Part B:

The giraffe is trying to eat some leaves that are 16 feet above the ground so you would subtract 16 - 15.55 to see how much farther it needs to reach, so the answer is 0.45.

(This is what I got, I apologize if I get this wrong. If I messed up on something, someone please correct me, thank you and have a nice day!)

Answer:

Part A:   It can reach 15.55 feet.

Part B:   Need to reach 0.45 feet farther to get to the leaves of a 16 feet tree.

Step-by-step explanation:

giraffe + tongue = reach

      14.29 + 1.26 = 15.55

tree height - giraffe reach = extra distance

16 - 15.55 = 0.45 feet

The expression 4x − 2(5x − 1) is equivalent to the expression 2 + 6x.

True
or
False

Answers

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us evaluate the problem using the proper order of operation:

           4x − 2(5x − 1)

To solve this problem, we use the order of operation called PEMDAS;

P - Parentheses

E - Exponents

M - Multiplication

D - Division

A - Addition

S - Subtraction

Now, since operations inside the parentheses are of the utmost priority, let us solve this;

             4x − 2(5x − 1)

            = 4x - 10x +2

            = -6x + 2  or 2 - 6x

We see that the solution give is false.

An art student uses a roll of wallpaper to decorate two gift boxes. The student will use 3 1 3 yards of paper for one box and 5 6 yard of paper for the other box. The paper must be cut into pieces that are 1 6 yard long. How many pieces will the student cut to use for the gift boxes?

Answers

Answer:

25 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Box_1 = 3\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Box_2 = \frac{5}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Pieces = \frac{1}{6}[/tex] yard

Required

Determine the number of pieces

First, we need to determine the total yards of paper

[tex]Total = Box_1 + Box_2[/tex]

[tex]Total = 3\frac{1}{3} + \frac{5}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Total = \frac{10}{3} + \frac{5}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Total = \frac{20 + 5}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Total = \frac{25}{6}[/tex]

Divide by the size of the pieces to get the number of pieces

[tex]Number = Total/Pieces[/tex]

[tex]Number = \frac{25}{6} / \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Number = \frac{25}{6} * \frac{6}{1}[/tex]

[tex]Number = \frac{25}{1} * \frac{1}{1}[/tex]

[tex]Number = 25[/tex]

[tex]S(h)=16h+46[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We just need to substitute the variables here! You already have the equations so instead of [tex]x[/tex] for hours, we use [tex]h.[/tex] And since it's a function the result is not [tex]y[/tex] but rather [tex]S(h)[/tex].
