A book shelf is 3 1/2 feet long. Each book on the shelf is 5/8 inches wide. How many books will fit on the shelf?

Answers

Answer 1

67 books will fit on the shell.

How many inches are in a feet?

One foot has 12 inches (in) (ft). In the US customary and imperial measurement systems, both feet and inches are units of length. The foot has had many different definitions throughout history, but since 1959, it has been defined as exactly 0.3048 meters, and the inch as 2.52 centimeters. The meter is the International System of Units' base unit of length (SI).

12 inches are one foot.

In the given question,

36 inches make 3 feet.42 inches equals 3 1/2 feet.

Then the number of books

= 42 / (5/8)

= 42 (8/5)

= 336/5

= 67 1/5

Finally, we round 67.2 to the nearest LESSER integer number and obtain

67.

Hence, 67 books will fit on the shell.

Answer:

Karen,  this type of question is such a tricky question, there is a lot of things that you just have to remember for these.  Also, this type of question is asked a lot on brainly,  you are in good company :P   This also makes me wonder if math teachers are just REALLY BAD at teaching this.. hmmm   Something is up with this type of problem b/c I have answer 100s of these type on here.. they are tricky.  soooo...

Step-by-step explanation:

1st ,

Use SOH CAH TOA to recall how the trig functions fit on a triangle

SOH: Sin(Ф)= Opp / Hyp

CAH: Cos(Ф)= Adj / Hyp

TOA: Tan(Ф) = Opp / Adj

with the above info,  we can solve your triangle  :P  not meant to sound "wrong"  .. anyway

look for the info you are given and what you want to find... and match that to one of the 3 formulas.  after  you've done this a few 100 times.. you'll just remember the above formulas.  :D

sooo I see that we want to find that angle ∅ and we know two of the sides and that this is a right triangle.. which means we can use the above formulas on this triangle.  So we know the adjacent side and the opposite side, to the angle,  soo lets use TOA

Tan(∅) = Opp / Adj

Tan(∅) = 4 / 13

now the algebra gets a little tricky here.. but it's just using the inverse function of the Tan to find the angle .. it's just going  backwards with the function is all.. nothing to see here... move along.. :D

take the inverse Tan function ( arcTan)  on both sides... sooo

∅ = arcTan( 4 /13 )      ( this will find the angle, but make sure your calculator is set to degrees.. and not radians )

∅ = 17.1027...°

So, now we know that angle ∅

SOH CAH TOA is super helpful for this kind of triangle problem :)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For Example, To complete the square when a is greater than 1 or less than 1 but not equal to 0, factor out the value of a from all other terms.

For example, find the solution by completing the square for:

2x2−12x+7=0

a≠1,a=2 so divide through by 2

22x2−122x+72=02

which gives us

x2−6x+72=0

Your answer is x2-6x+72=0

A major credit card company is interested in whether there is a linear relationship between its internal rating of a customer’s credit risk and that of an independent rating agency. Thecompany collected a random sample of 200 customers and used the data to test the claim that there is a linear relationship. The following hypotheses were used to test the claim.
The test yielded a t -value of 3.34 with a corresponding p -value of 0.001. Which of the following is the correct interpretation of the -value?
a. If the alternative hypothesis is true, the probability of observing a test statistic of 3.34 or greater is 0.001.
b. If the null hypothesis is true, the probability of observing a test statistic at least as extreme as 3.34 is 0.001.
c. If the null hypothesis is true, the probability of observing a test statistic of 3.34 or greater is 0.001This answer is incorrect.
d. If the alternative hypothesis is true, the probability of observing a test statistic at least as extreme as 3.34 is 0.001.
e. If the null hypothesis is true, the probability of observing a test statistic of 3.34 is 0.001.

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The test produced, a t-value of 3.34 and a p-value of 0.001 as a result. The possibility of seeing a test statistic at least as extreme as 3.34 is 0.001; the proper reading of the p-value is different if the alternative hypothesis is true.

Probability calculation:

p-value = 0.001

t = 3.34

Whether the alternative theory is true because there is a 0.001, and the possibility of showing testing statistics as extreme as 3.34.The p-value indicates that since the Null-hypothesis is true, there is a 0.001 chance of seeing a test statistic at least as extreme as 3.34.

Therefore, the final answer is "Option d".

a. Adding two integers and then taking the remainder produces the same result as taking their remainders first, then adding them, and then applying the remainder operation once more.
b. Saying that a divides b is the same as saying that b is a multiple of a.
c. Adding two integers and then taking the remainder produces the same result as taking their remainders first and then adding them.
d. When you perform division by 5 with remainder, the remainder is an integer from -5 to 5.
e. If an integer a divides a product of two integers b and c, then a must divide b or a must divide c.
f. If an integer divides two numbers, it also divides their difference.
g. If an integer divides two numbers, it also divides their sum.
h. When you perform division by 3 with remainder, the remainder is one of the integers 0,1,2.
i. If a and b are positive integers, and a = bq + r is the decomposition of a given by the division algorithm, then q can be found as the floor of a/b, and then r can be found as r = a - bq.
j. If an integer a divides an integer b, then a also divides any multiple of b.

b. True

c. False

d. False

e. False

f. True

g. True

h. True

i. True

j. True

Step-by-step explanation:

When the integer divides the two number then their sum is also divisible by that integer. This is also the case in the subtraction when two number are divisible then their difference is also divisible. When there is division by 5 the number not necessarily can be 5 or -5. This statement is not correct.

Find both the number of combinations and the number of permutations for the given number of objects.

15 objects taken 7 at a time​

Answers

Answer:

First, if we have a set of K elements, such that are ordered as:

{x₁, x₂, ...}

The total number of permutations for the K elements can be found in the next way.

For the first element in the set, we have K options.

For the second element in the set, we have (K - 1) options (because we already choose one)

For the third element we have (K - 2) options, and so on.

The total number of permutation is equal to the product between the numbers of options for each position's element, then the number of permutations for K elements is:

permutations = K*(K - 1)*(K - 2)*....*2*1 = K!

Now suppose that we have a set of N elements, and we want to make groups of K elements.

The total number of different combinations of K elements is given by the equation:

[tex]C(N, K) = \frac{N!}{(N - K)!*K!}[/tex]

In this case we have 15 objects (then  N = 15) and we take 7 at the time (Then K = 7)

Where we need to take in account the number of combinations and also the permutations for each combination.

Then the total number of different sets is:

C(15*7)*7!

First, the total number of combinations will be:

[tex]C(15,7) = \frac{15!}{(15 - 7)!7!} = \frac{15!}{8!*7!} = \frac{15*14*13*12*11*10*9}{7*6*5*4*3*2*1} = 6,435[/tex]

So we have 6,436 combinations, and each one of these combinations has 7! permutations.

permutations = 7! = 7*6*5*4*3*2*1 = 5,040

if we combine these we get:

Combinations*Permutations = 6,435*5,040 = 32,432,400

If the perimeter of the triangle is 95 inches, what is the length of each side? n, 3n+8, and 4n+7.

Answers

Answer:

  10, 38, 47

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths:

  95 = n +(3n +8) +(4n +7)

  80 = 8n . . . . . . subtract 15

  10 = n

  3n+8 = 3(10) +8 = 38

  4n+7 = 4(10) +7 = 47

The lengths of the sides of the triangle are 10, 38, 47.
