Answers

Answer 1

Using it's formula, considering the results, it is found that the accuracy of the test is of 0.95 = 95%.

What is the accuracy of a test?

It is given by the number of correct results divided by the number of tests.

In this problem, there were 80 tests, of which 80 - 2 - 2 = 76 had correct results, hence the accuracy is given by:

Huw has a maths test. the second question is:



here is huw's working. 9 days is incorrect. work out the correct answer.

Answers

Huw's answer of 9 days is incorrect because more guests would finish the food in less time so the number of days for 30 guests is less than 6 days.

The number of days that the food can last 30 guests is 4 days.

How long will Seaview Hotel's food feed 30 guests?

More guests would eat the food faster which means that it would be finished in less days than the 6 days used by 20 guests.

To find the days the food would last 30 guests, use the inverse proportion formula:
= (Number of guests x Number of days food lasts for guests) / New number of guests

= (20 x 6) / 30

= 4 days

Full question is:

The only food provided for guests at Seaview Hotel is breakfast. The hotel has enough food to make breakfast for 20 guests for 6 days. How long would the food last 30 guests? You may assume each guest eats the same amount of food for breakfast.

Grayson is preheating his oven before using it to bake. The initial temperature of the oven is 65° and the temperature will increase at a rate of 15° per minute after being turned on. What is the temperature of the oven 6 minutes after being turned on? What is the temperature of the oven tt minutes after being turned on?

Answers

Answer:

155 Degrees

Step-by-step :

(Time x Rate of Temp) + Initial Temp = Final Temperature

Ex. (6 * 15) + 65 = 155 Degrees

Answer:

The temperature of the oven 6 minutes after being turned on is 155°

The temperature of the oven t minutes after being turned on is 15t + 65

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx + b

y = y coordinate

m = slope

x = x coordinate

b = y intercept

The y intercept is when x = 0, so the initial temperature

b = 65°

The slope is increase at a rate of per minute after being turned on.

m = 15°

The y coordinate will represent the temperature of the oven after a certain amount of minutes after being turned on

y

The x coordinate will represent the amount of minutes after the oven being turn on

x = t

combine:

What is the temperature of the oven tt minutes after being turned on?

y = 15t + 65

What is the temperature of the oven 6 minutes after being turned on?

t = 6 minutes

y = 15t + 65

y = 15(6) + 65

y = 90 + 65

y = 155

Imaginary Roots

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic equation ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is written in standard form, and the formula is

x = [-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)]/ 2a

Given:

3x2 - 4x + 5 = 0'

Here a = 3, b = -4 and c = 5

Substituting:

x = [-(-4) ± √((-4)2 - 4 × 3 × 5)]/ (2 × 3)

Further Simplification:
x = [4 ± √(16 - 60)]/6                 ----> Discriminant: b^2 - 4ac = -44 < 0.

x = [4 ± √-44]/ 6

Now, we get:

x = [4 ± 2√-11]/ 6

x = [2 ± i √11]/ 3

Therefore, The best description of the roots of the equation 3x2 - 4x + 5 = 0 is imaginary roots.

If .111... = 1/x, what is x?

Answers

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

When 1 is divided by 9, we understand it is a non-terminating decimal number because the denominator consists of other number other than 2 and 5.

Now, let's get into how to solve for x :

Divide both sides by .111... :

1/.111... x .111... = 1/.111 x 1/x

1 = 1/(x)(.111....)

Multiply both sides by x :

1(x) = (x)/(x)(.111...)

x = 1/.111...

x = 9 (nearest whole number)

Answer:

[tex]\sf 0.\dot{1}=\dfrac{1}{9}[/tex]

Therefore, x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert 0.11111... to a fraction:

Equation 1

Let:   y = 0.11111...

Equation 2

Multiply both sides by 10:

⇒ y · 10 = 0.11111... · 10

⇒ 10y = 1.11111...

Subtract Equation 1 from Equation 2 to eliminate the recurring digits after the decimal:

⇒ 10y - y = 1.1111... - 0.11111...

⇒ 9y = 1

Divide both sides by 9

[tex]\implies \sf y=\dfrac{1}{9}[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]\sf 0.\dot{1}=\dfrac{1}{9}[/tex]

So if:

Answers

Answer:

2.5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

hope it helps. if there's any question feel free to ask me I be ready to respond appropriately bye.

The altitude of the trapezoid is approximately 2.5 cm.

Here, we have,

To find the altitude of the trapezoid, we can use the formula for the area of a trapezoid:

Area = (1/2) * (sum of the bases) * altitude

Given that

one base (a) is 1 cm, the other base (b) is 5 cm, and the area is 7.5 cm², we can plug these values into the formula and solve for the altitude:

7.5 cm² = (1/2) * (1 cm + 5 cm) * altitude

Simplifying:

7.5 cm² = (1/2) * 6 cm * altitude

7.5 cm² = 3 cm * altitude

Now, we can isolate the altitude by dividing both sides of the equation by 3 cm:

altitude = 7.5 cm² / 3 cm

altitude ≈ 2.5 cm

Therefore, the altitude of the trapezoid is approximately 2.5 cm.
