Oscar and Maria each wrote an equation that they felt represented the proportional relationship between distance in kilometers and distance in miles. One entry in the table paired 152 km with 95 miles. If k represents the number of kilometers and m represents the number of miles, who wrote the correct equation that would relate kilometers to miles? Explain why.


Oscar wrote the equation k=1.6m, and he said that the unit rate 1.6/1 represents kilometers per mile.


Maria wrote the equation k=0.625m as her equation, and she said that 0.625 represents kilometers per mile.

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  Oscar

Step-by-step explanation:

On the face of it, you can see that the number of kilometers representing a given distance is greater than the number of miles. (152 > 95)

This means the constant of proportionality (a) in the equation ...

  k = am

must be greater than 1. You can find its value by solving this equation for 'a' and using the table entries for k and m:

  a = k/m = 152/95 = 8/5 = 1.6

The correct relation is ...

  k = 1.6m . . . . . Oscar wrote the correct equation

The net of a rectangular prism is shown below. What is the total surface area of this prism?

A. 112 cm²
B. 142 cm²
C. 105 cm²
D. 71 cm²

Answers

Answer:   142 cm^2  (choice B)

=========================================================

Explanation:

Think of unwrapping a present and doing so without any unnecessary tearing. That means there aren't any little small pieces thrown away. There are many ways to unwrap a 3D box, and this diagram shows one of many ways. This flat layout is the 2D version of the 3D surfaces.

To find the surface area of the 3D figure, we simply need to find the area of each rectangle in this 2D flat net. Once we know all the little areas, we add them up to get the surface area.

------------------------------

The lowest rectangle is 3 cm by 5 cm, so its area is 3*5 = 15 cm^2. Let A = 15 so we can use it later.

Let's move to the middle row of four rectangles. From left to right, we have these four rectangular areas

3*7 = 21 cm^25*7 = 35 cm^23*7 = 21 cm^25*7 = 35 cm^2

I'll call these results B,C,D,E in the order given above. So B = 21, C = 35, etc.

The rectangle up top has area of 3*5 = 15 cm^2. I'll let F = 15

Lastly, we'll add up the sub-areas to get the grand total

A+B+C+D+E+F = 15+21+35+21+35+15 = 142 cm^2 is the surface area

------------------------------

Another pathway to the answer:

If you can picture how this flat diagram would fold up, then you would see that we'd get a 3D block with the following dimensions

L = 7 cmW = 5 cmH = 3 cm

The order of L,W,H doesn't really matter.

Then we can use the 3D block surface area formula like so

SA = 2*(LW + LH + WH)

SA = 2*(7*5 + 7*3 + 5*3)

SA = 2*(35 + 21 + 15)

SA = 2*71

SA = 142 cm^2 is the surface area

As you can see from the third step, we have "35", "21" and "15" show up again. The 2 out front is because we have 2 copies of each item mentioned.

Step-by-step explanation:

  11/y = 11 . . . . . . . simplify

Additional comment

The attached graph seems to show that the graphs of the two equations also intersect at (x, y) = (0, 0). However, careful consideration of these equations leads to the conclusion that x=0 and y=0 are not in the domain of either equation. (Division by 0 is undefined.) So, the only solution is (x, y) = (1/2, 1).

If you were to multiply both equations by xy to eliminate fractions, you would, indeed, arrive at the conclusion that (x, y) = (0, 0) is a solution. As we noted, that "solution" is extraneous. Whenever you multiply an equation by an expression that can have the value 0, you need to be careful to exclude any "solution" that makes that expression 0.

Yes, this means that both of these models are equal to each other. This is because Model 1 is equal to 4/10, while Model 2 is equivalent to 40/100. 4/10 is the same thing as 40/100, though. It's just a little bit more simplified, but the fully simplified answer would be 2/5.

What is the TRUE statement below regarding aggregate supply in the long and short run ?

During short run there is no relationship between price level and RGDP.

The intersection of the aggregate demand and short-run aggregate supply curves determines real GDP and price level in the short run. However, keep in mind that in the near run, sticky pricing may impede the economy from attaining its natural level of employment and output.

Hence we can say that In the short run, there is no relationship between price level and RGDP , (c) option is the correct answer.

2(w + 10) + 2w = 80           Remove the brackets

2w + 20 + 2w = 80           Combine on the left

Suppose carpet for a 12ft by 14ft room costs $400 find the cost to carpet a room 48ft by 56ft

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\$\ 6400[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Approach

The easiest way to solve this problem is to find the area of the first room with the dimensions of (12ft) by (14ft). Then one will divide the cost of carpeting the room by the area of the room, this will yield the price of carpeting per square foot. After finding the price of carpeting per square foot, one will find the area of the second room, with the dimensions of (48ft) by (56ft). Finally, one will multiply the price per square foot of carpeting by the area of the second room to find the price for carpeting the second room.

2. Find the area of the first room

Assume that the first room is a rectangle. the following formula can be used to find the area of a rectangle,

[tex](length)(width)=Area[/tex]

The following are the dimensions of the given room,

[tex]length = 14\\width = 12[/tex]

Substitute into the formula to find the area and simplify to solve,

[tex](length)(width)=Area[/tex]

[tex](14)(12)=Area_1[/tex]

[tex]168=Area_1[/tex]

3. Find the price of carpeting per square foot

To find the price of carpeting per square foot, divide the total price for carpeting the first room by the area of the first room.

[tex]\frac{carpeting\ price_1}{area_1}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{400}{168}[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex]=\frac{400}{168}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{50}{21}[/tex]

4. FInd the area of the second room

Assume that the second room is also a rectangle. Use a similar strategy to find the area of this room as used for the area of the first room.

[tex](length)(width)=Area[/tex]

[tex]length = 48\\width = 56[/tex]

Substitute and simplify to sovle,

[tex](length)(width)=Area[/tex]

[tex](48)(56)=Area_2[/tex]

[tex]2688=Area_2[/tex]

5. Find the price for carpeting the room

Multiply the area of the room by the price for carpeting per square foot to find the price for carpeting the second room.

[tex](Area_2)*(carpeting\ price)[/tex]

[tex]2688=Area_2[/tex]

[tex]\frac{50}{21}=carpeting\ price[/tex]

[tex](Area_2)*(carpeting\ price)[/tex]

[tex]=(2688)*(\frac{50}{21})[/tex]

Simplify to solve,

[tex]=(2688)*(\frac{50}{21})[/tex]

[tex]=(2688)*(\frac{50}{21})[/tex]

[tex]=6400[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Replacement of -1/2(8x +2) by -4x -1 is use of the distributive property, eliminating choices B and D.

In step 3, addition of 1 to both sides of the equation is use of the addition property of equality, eliminating choice C. This leaves only choice A.

Additional comment

This problem makes a distinction between the addition property of equality and the subtraction property of equality. They are essentially the same property, since addition of +1 is the same as subtraction of -1. The result shown in Step 3 could be from addition of +1 to both sides of the equation, or it could be from subtraction of -1 from both sides of the equation.

In general, you want to add the opposite of the number you don't want. Here, that number is -1, so we add +1. Of course, adding an opposite is the same as subtracting.

In short, you can argue both choices A and C have correct justifications. The only reason to prefer choice A is that we usually think of adding positive numbers as addition, and adding negative numbers as subtraction.
