Answer: He is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

        Since we are talking about -8.0, we can "ignore" the .0 because 0 has no value. An integer is a whole negative number, whole positive number, or zero. -8 is a whole negative number, since .0 means "nothing" here, so it is an integer.

Answer:

28.3

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we must follow PEMDAS, which must be used in solving all mathematical equations and expressions.

PEMDAS is the order you solve the equation/expression in. It is an acronym for:

P: Parenthesis

E: Exponents

M: Multiplication

D: Division

A: Addition

S: Subtraction

Keep in mind that multiplication and division are too be done left and right. You do not do multiplication first and division last, read left to right. Same goes with addition and subtraction.

This is the less confusing notation of PEMDAS.

P: Parenthesis

E: Exponents

M: Multiplication D: Division

A: Addition S: Subtraction

Now, lets solve the problem.

92.3 - (3.2 ÷ 0.4) × 2³

What do we do first? Well since parenthesis is first according to PEMDAS, we must solve the division in side of the parenthesis first.

3.2/0.4 = 8

Now we have:

92.3 - (8) × 2³

Remove the parenthesis as there is only one term inside and therefore not needed.

92.3 - 8 × 2³

What do we do next?

We have:

Subtraction: 92.3 - 8

Multiplication: -8 × 2³

Exponent: 2³

Because PEMDAS states exponents is to be solved in front of multiplication/division and addition/subtraction, we must do that.

What is an exponent?

2³

2 is the base, 3 is the exponent.

2³

Means multiplying 2 by itself 3 times:

2 × 2 × 2

8

Now we have:

92.3 - 8 × 8

Because PEMDAS states solving multiplication/division is prioritized over addition/ subtraction, we must solve 8 × 8

8 × 8 = 64

Now we have: 92.3 - 64

Solve.

According to the given standard deviation, the true mean number of chocolate chips per cookie to within 2 chocolate chips with 99% confidence is 10.6

Standard deviation:

Basically, the standard deviation refers a quantity expressing by how much the members of a group differ from the mean value for the group.

Given,

It is desired to estimate the mean number of chocolate chips in a chocolate chip cookie.

Here we need to find how many cookies need to be sampled to estimate the true mean number of chocolate chips per cookie to within 2 chocolate chips with 99% confidence and assume that the population standard deviation is 3.7 chocolate chips.

From the given question we have identified the following details,

Confidence interval = 99%

Standard deviation = 3.7

So, the critical value is calculated as,

=> 1 - 0.99

=> 0.01

So, the z scores is 2.576.

Now, the formula to confidence interval is given by : -

=> 10.6 ± 2.576 (0.01)/ √3.7

Answer:

  12.1 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to know the mowing time for 5 acres if Hannah can mow 1000 square yards in 1/2 hour.

We can convert the acreage to square yards to facilitate the calculation:

  5 ac × (4840 yd²)/(1 ac) = 24,200 yd²

Hannah mows her lawn at the rate of ...

  (1000 yd²)/(0.5 h) = 2000 yd²/h

At this rate, the time it takes for 24200 yd² will be ...

  (24,200 yd²)/(2000 yd²/h) = 12.1 h

It would take Hannah 12.1 hours to mow 5 acres.

The order of T is 82.

Let n and e be the order and number of edges of T respectively.

Also, let a, b, c and d be the number of vertices of degree 2, 3, 4 and 5 respectively.

Then, 50+a+b+c+d = n

And by the Handshake Lemma,  the sum of the degrees of all the vertices of T is twice the number of edges, so we have

50+2a+3b+4c+5d = 2e

Since a=b=c=d then we have the following two equations,

50+4a = n

50+14a = 2e

But, T is a tree so e=n=1, then the two equations become,

50+4a = n ...............(1)

50+14a = 2(n-1) .............(2)

Solving for a in (1) we get,

a = [tex]\frac{n-50}{4}[/tex]

Plugging a into (2) we get,

50+14([tex]\frac{n-50}{4}[/tex]) = 2(n-1)

50+3.5n-175 = 2n-2

3.5n-2n = 175-50-2

1.5n = 123

n = [tex]\frac{123}{1.5}[/tex] = 82

Therefore, the order of T is 82.

Answer:5,149 pounds of sawdust for $1,132.78

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 is to convert 4 tons into pounds is:

4 tons * 2000 pounds per ton = 8000 pounds

Step 2 is to find the cost of saw dust per pound in each scenario:

Scenario 1: $1132.78 / 5149 = .22 dollars per pound

Scenario 2: $2800 / 8000 = .35 dollars per pound

Step 3 is just comparing which one is the cheapest per pound based on step 2:

.22 per pound is less than .35 per pound. So the answer is scenario 1 (5149 pounds for 1132.78) is the better buy

Answer:

x = 7.5 , x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

[tex]\frac{4x-1}{2}[/tex] = x + 7 ( multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction )

4x - 1 = 2(x + 7)

4x - 1 = 2x + 14 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

2x - 1 = 14 ( add 1 to both sides )

2x = 15 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 7.5

(b)

3x + 2 = [tex]\frac{2x+13}{3}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction )

3(3x + 2) = 2x + 13

9x + 6 = 2x + 13 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

7x + 6 = 13 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

7x = 7 ( divide both sides by 7 )

x = 1

The area of the smaller triangle is 18 squared units which is determined by the property of similar triangles.

The area of the larger triangle is 36.

The two triangles are similar which is given in the question

We know that the corresponding sides of similar triangles are being in the same ratio.

As per the property of similar triangles,

A₁ : S₁ = A₂ : S₂

Here A₁ is area of the larger triangle,  A₂ is area of the smaller triangle

S₁ is side of the larger triangle, and S₂ is side of the smaller triangle,

⇒ A₁ / S₁ = A₂ / S₂

⇒ 36 / 12 = A₂ / 6

⇒ 3 = A₂ / 6

⇒ A₂ = 18

The missing values for the exponential function are y = 16.875 and y = 25.3125

The general form of the exponential function is y = abˣ

From the table, when x = 0, y = 11.25. Substitute the values into the function:

y = abˣ

11.25 = ab⁰             (Note: b⁰ = 1)

11.25 = a(1)

11.25 = a

a = 11.25

Also, from the table, when x = -1, y = 7.5. Substitute the values into the function:

7.5 = 11.25b⁻¹

7.5 = 11.25/b                (Note: b⁻¹ = 1/b)

7.5b = 11.25

b = 11.25/7.5 = 1.5

We can now write the exponential function for this case:

y = abˣ

y = 11.25(1.5)ˣ

We can find the missing values now:

when x = 1:

y = 11.25(1.5)ˣ

y = 11.25(1.5)¹

y = 16.875

when x = 2:

y = 11.25(1.5)ˣ

y = 11.25(1.5)²

y = 25.3125

Scale Factor

First, to determine the scale factor, I will choose two corresponding segments: AL and TD.

By counting on the graph, I can see that they are the following lengths:

[tex]TD=15\\AL=3[/tex]

Therefore the ratio of the large triangle to the small triangle is 15:3. Written as a fraction and simplified, this is:

5 is the scale factor, or k.

Congruency

Each segment on the small triangle corresponds to the same side on the large triangle. Therefore:

AL ≅ TD

TK ≅ AH

DK ≅ LH

​In Euclidean geometry, a perspective is a parent created by rays, often referred to as the angle's perimeters, sharing a single endpoint known as the perspective's vertex. Angles created by rays are located in the plane that contains the rays. Angles can also be created by intersecting two planes. They are referred to as dihedral angles. Curves that cross may also define an angle, which is the angle formed by rays that are perpendicular to the individual curves at the point of junction.

The degree of an angle or rotation is also expressed in terms of perspective. This metric represents the relationship between a circular arc's length and radius.
