Given data
A school bus with the football team from Jefferson High School drove at an average speed of 48mph
Another school bus with the cheerleading squad left 2 hours later and caught with the football team after 6 hours.
Required
To find the speed of the bus carrying the Cheerleading squad.
Step 1
Determine the distance the bus carrying the football team had travelled in the first 2 hours
Speed is given as
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{speed =}\frac{dis\tan ce}{time} \\ \text{where sp}eed\text{ = 48mph} \\ \text{time = 2 hours} \\ \text{distance = sp}eed\text{ x time} \\ \text{distance = 48 x 2 =96miles} \end{gathered}[/tex]Step 2
Determine of the distance covered by the bus with the football team in the next 6 hours and find the total distance in 8 hours
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Distance = sp}eed\text{ }\times\text{ time} \\ where \\ \text{speed = 48mph} \\ \text{time = 6 hours} \\ \text{Distance = 48 }\times\text{ 6 = 288 miles} \end{gathered}[/tex]The total distance in 8 hours covered by the bus = 288 + 96 = 384miles
Step 3
Determine the speed of the bus carrying the Cheerleaders
The total distance to be covered by the Cheerleaders is 384 miles
The total time of their journey to catch with the bus carrying the Football team is 6hours
Hence the speed of the bus required is given as
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Speed = }\frac{dis\tan ce}{time} \\ \text{speed = }\frac{384}{6} \\ \text{speed = 64mph} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the speed of the bus carrying the school's Cheerleaders squad is 64mph
Perform the indicated operation of multiplication or division on the rational expression and simplify
The division of two fractions is the same as multiplying the first by the inverted second fraction:
Then, in this case:
[tex]\frac{24y^2}{5x^2}\div\frac{6y^3}{25x^2}=\frac{24y^2}{5x^2}\times\frac{25x^2}{6y^3}[/tex]Step 2: multiplication of two fractionsWe multiply two fractions by multiplying the numerators and the denominators:

a) isolate y
[tex]\begin{gathered} -2x+3y\geqslant9 \\ add\text{ 2x in both sides} \\ -2x+3y+2x\geqslant9+2x \\ 3y\ge9+2x \\ divide\text{ both sides by 3} \\ \frac{3y}{3}\geqslant\frac{9}{3}+\frac{2x}{3} \\ y\ge\frac{2}{3}x+3 \end{gathered}[/tex]b) now, change the symbol to make an equality and find 2 points from the line

Step 2
graph the inequality (2)
[tex]x\ge-5[/tex]this inequality represents the numbers greater or equal than -5 ( for x), so to graph the inequality:
a) draw an vertical line at x=-5, and due to we are looking for the values greater or equal than -5 we need to use a solid line and shade the area to the rigth of the line
Step 3
finally, the inequality 3
[tex]y<6[/tex]this inequality represents all the y values smaller than 6, so we need to draw a horizontal line at y=6 and shade the area below the line
Step 4
finally, the solution is the intersection of the areas

9. The Elite Vacuum Company has determined its cost for making vacuums to beC = 24V + 1000, where C is the cost in dollars and V is the number of vacuums.If the cost must be between $49,000 and $121,000, how many vacuums can they makeper week? (You must set up and solve an inequality.)
We are given the relationship between the cost in dollars (C) and the number of vacuums (V) to be:
[tex]C\text{ = 24V + 1000}[/tex]From the constraint, we have that the cost(C) must be greater than $49000 and less than $121000
Writing this as inequality:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 24V\text{ + 1000 }\ge\text{ 49000 } \\ 24V\text{ + 1000 }\leq\text{ 121000} \end{gathered}[/tex]Solving the linear inequalities for V:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 24V\text{ + 1000 }\ge\text{ 49000} \\ 24V\text{ }\ge\text{ 49000 - 1000} \\ 24V\text{ }\ge\text{ 48000} \\ \text{Divide both sides by 24} \\ \frac{24V}{24}\text{ }\ge\text{ }\frac{48000}{24} \\ V\text{ }\ge\text{ 2000} \end{gathered}[/tex]Similarly for the second inequality:

We need to remember that when two variables are in an inverse relationship, we have that, for example:
[tex]y=\frac{1}{x}[/tex]In this case, we have an inverse relationship, and we have that when x = 1, y = 12.
Therefore, we have that the correct relationship is:
[tex]y=\frac{12}{x}[/tex]In this relationship, if we have that x = 1, then, we have that y = 12:
[tex]x=1\Rightarrow y=\frac{12}{1}\Rightarrow y=12[/tex]Therefore, the correct option is the second option: y = 12/x.

Find functions f and g such that (f o g)(x) = [tex] \sqrt{2x} + 19[/tex]
We have the expression:
[tex](fog)(x)=\sqrt[]{2x}+19[/tex]So:
[tex]g(x)=2x[/tex][tex]f(x)=\sqrt[]{x}+19[/tex]***
Since we want to get the function g composed in the function f, and the result of this is:
[tex](fog)(x)=\sqrt[]{2x}+19[/tex]When we replace g in f, we have to get as answer the previous expression. And by looking at it the only place where we will be able to replace values is where the variable x is located. The function f will have the "skeleton" or shape of the overall function and g will be injected in it.
From this, we can have that f might be x + 19 and g might be sqrt(2x), but the only options that are given such that when we replace g in x of f, are f = sqrt(x) + 19 and g = 2x.

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the graph of y = 2x - 5 and passes through the point (8, 10)?
We know that the equation of a line is given by
[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]To find it we need the slope m and a point that the line passes thorugh. In this case we have the point (8,10) but we don't know the slope. What we know is that the line we are looking for is parallel to the line
[tex]y=2x-5[/tex]We also know that for two lines to be parallel they have the same slope. Then, if we fin the slope of the line y=2x-5, we have the slope of the line we are looking for. To find the slope of the line y=2x-5 we note that it is written in the slope-intercept form
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]From this we know that the slope is multiplying the x variable when it is written in that form. Hence m=2.
Then the line we are looking for has an slope of 2 and passes through the point (8,10). Pluggin the values in the equation of a line we have.
[tex]y-10=2(x-8)[/tex]Writting it in the slope intercept form we have
[tex]\begin{gathered} y-10=2(x-8) \\ y-10=2x-16 \\ y=2x-16+10 \\ y=2x-6 \end{gathered}[/tex]Then the line parallel to y=2x-5 and passes through the point (8,10) is

Solve the equation for w.
4w + 2 + 0.6w = −3.4w − 6
No solution
w = 0
w = 1
w = −1
Answer:
w = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation:
[tex]4w + 2 + 0.6w=-3.4w-6[/tex]
Add 3.4w to both sides:
[tex]\implies 4w + 2 + 0.6w+3.4w=-3.4w-6+3.4w[/tex]
[tex]\implies 4w + 2 + 0.6w+3.4w=-6[/tex]
Subtract 2 from both sides:
[tex]\implies 4w + 2 + 0.6w+3.4w-2=-6-2[/tex]
[tex]\implies 4w +0.6w+3.4w=-6-2[/tex]
Combine the terms in w on the left side of the equation and subtract the numbers on the right side of the equation:
[tex]\implies 8w=-8[/tex]
Divide both sides by 8:
[tex]\implies \dfrac{8w}{8}=\dfrac{-8}{8}[/tex]
[tex]\implies w=-1[/tex]
Therefore, the solution to the given equation is:
[tex]\boxed{w=-1}[/tex]
Given that,
→ 4w + 2 + 0.6w = -3.4w - 6
Now the value of w will be,
→ 4w + 2 + 0.6w = -3.4w - 6
→ 4.6w + 2 = -3.4w - 6
→ 4.6w + 3.4w = -6 - 2
→ 8w = -8
→ w = -8/8
→ [ w = -1 ]
Hence, the value of w is -1.

Last year, Bob had $10,000 to invest. He invested some of it in an account that paid 10% simple interest per year, and he invested the rest in an account that paid 8% simple interest per year. After one year, he received a total of $820 in interest. How much did he invest in each account?
Given:
The total amount is P = $10,000.
The rate of interest is r(1) = 10% 0.10.
The other rate of interest is r(2) = 8%=0.08.
The number of years for both accounts is n = 1 year.
The total interest earned is A = $820.
The objective is to find the amount invested in each account.
Explanation:
Consider the amount invested for r(1) as P(1), and the interest earned as A(1).
The equation for the amount obtained for r(1) can be calculated as,
[tex]\begin{gathered} A_1=P_1\times n\times r_1 \\ A_1=P_1\times1\times0.1 \\ A_1=0.1P_1\text{ . . . . .(1)} \end{gathered}[/tex]Consider the amount invested for r(2) as P(2), and the interest earned as A(2).
The equation for the amount obtained for r(2) can be calculated as,

[tex]undefined[/tex]Suppose that 27 percent of American households still have a traditional phone landline. In a sample of thirteen households, find the probability that: (a)No families have a phone landline. (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.) (b)At least one family has a phone landline. (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.) (c)At least eight families have a phone landline.
Answer:
(a) P = 0.0167
(b) P = 0.9833
(c) P = 0.0093
Explanation:
To answer these questions, we will use the binomial distribution because we have n identical events (13 households) with a probability p of success (27% still have a traditional phone landline). So, the probability that x families has a traditional phone landline can be calculated as
[tex]\begin{gathered} P(x)=nCx\cdot p^x\cdot(1-p)^x \\ \\ \text{ Where nCx = }\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!} \end{gathered}[/tex]Replacing n = 13 and p = 27% = 0.27, we get:
[tex]P(x)=13Cx\cdot0.27^x\cdot(1-0.27)^x[/tex]Part (a)
Then, the probability that no families have a phone landline can be calculated by replacing x = 0, so
[tex]P(0)=13C0\cdot0.27^0\cdot(1-0.27)^{13-0}=0.0167[/tex]Part (b)
The probability that at least one family has a phone landline can be calculated as
[tex]\begin{gathered} P(x\ge1)=1-P(0) \\ P(x\ge1)=1-0.167 \\ P(x\ge1)=0.9833 \end{gathered}[/tex]Part (c)
The probability that at least eight families have a phone landline can be calculated as
[tex]P(x\ge8)=P(8)+P(9)+P(10)+P(11)+P(12)+P(13)[/tex]So, each probability is equal to
[tex]\begin{gathered} P(8)=13C8\cdot0.27^8\cdot(1-0.27)^{13-8}=0.0075 \\ P(9)=13C9\cdot0.27^9\cdot(1-0.27)^{13-9}=0.0015 \\ P(10)=13C10\cdot0.27^{10}\cdot(1-0.27)^{13-10}=0.0002 \\ P(11)=13C11\cdot0.27^{11}\cdot(1-0.27)^{13-11}=0.00002 \\ P(12)=13C12\cdot0.27^{12}\cdot(1-0.27)^{13-12}=0.000001 \\ P(13)=13C13\cdot0.27^{13}\cdot(1-0.27)^{13-13}=0.00000004 \end{gathered}[/tex]Then, the probability is equal to
P(x≥8) = 0.0093
Therefore, the answers are
(a) P = 0.0167
(b) P = 0.9833
(c) P = 0.0093
A recent survey asked respondents how many hours they spent per week on the internet. Of the 15 respondents making$2,000,000 or more annually, the responses were: 0,0,0,0,0, 2, 3, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 40 and 70. Find a point estimate of thepopulation mean number of hours spent on the internet for those making $2,000,000 or more.
Given
The total frequency is 15 respondents
The responses were: 0,0,0,0,0, 2, 3, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 40 and 70
Solution
The population mean is the sum of all the values divided by the total frequency .
[tex]undefined[/tex]The sum of a number and -4 is greater than 15. Find the number
x > 19
Explanation:
Let the number = x
The sum of a number and -4 = x + (-4)
The sum of a number and -4 is greater than 15:
x + (-4) > 15
Multiplication of opposite signs gives negative number:
x - 4 > 15
Collect like terms:
x > 15 + 4
x > 19
The ratio of the volume of two spheres is 8:27. What is the ratio of their radii?
We have that the volume of the spheres have a ratio of 8:27.
