When three professors are seated in a restaurant, the hostess asks them: "Does everyone want coffee?" The first professor says: "I do not know." The second professor then says: "I do not know." Finally, the third professor says: "No, not everyone wants coffee."
The hostess comes back and gives coffee to the professors who want it. How did she figure out who wanted coffee?

Answers

Answer 1

the first two professors did not know if everyone wanted coffee because the third professor had to choose yes or no if he wanted coffee. the first two professors were waiting for the third to say something, and when he said no, they knew he did not want coffee. if one of the first two professors said no, the answer would be no.

Omar's Coffee Shop makes a blend that is a mixture of two types of coffee. Type A coffee costs $4.10 Omar per pound, and type B coffee costs $5.30 per pound. This month, Omar made 141 pounds of the blend, for a total cost of $640.50. How many pounds of type A coffee did he use?

Answers

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's use the variables A and B to represent the number of pounds used of types A and B.

4.10A+5.30B=640.50

A+B=141

Let's rearrange the bottom equation to solve for B.

A+B=141

Subtract A from both sides.

B=141-A

We can put this value of B into the first equation to solve for the number of pounds of type A Omar used.

4.10A+5.30(141-A)=640.5

We use distributive property to undo parentheses.

4.10A+747.3-5.3A=640.5

We combine like terms.

-1.2A+747.3=640.5

Subtract 747.3 from both sides.

-1.2A=-106.8

Divide both sides by -1.2

A=89

Omar used 89 pounds of type A coffee in this month's blend.

Kaleb can skateboard 75 feet in 25 seconds. How far can he skateboard in 3.25 minutes?

Answers

Answer:

585 Feet

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to consider how much seconds in a minute. 60.

Then, multiply 75 feet to make it match to 60 seconds. So 60/25. You get 2.4. You multiply 2.4 by 75 to get 180 feet per minute.

Finally, you multiply 180 by 3.25, as it is 3.25 minutes.

he can go 3 feet per a second, so there are 195 seconds in 3.25 minutes so you would do 3 x 195 giving you an answer of 585 feet in 3.25 minutes

The required number line represents 2 whole intervals (16/8) and then 7 more parts (7/8) from 0, and ends up at the point marked 2 3/8.

What is Number Line?

In math, a number line can be defined as a straight line with numbers arranged at equal segments or intervals throughout. A number line is typically shown horizontally and can be extended indefinitely in any direction.

To add fractions with different denominators, we need to find a common denominator. In this case, we can use 8 as the common denominator:

1/4 + -21/8

1/4 - 21/8

2/8 - 21/8

-19/8

-2 3/8

To represent 19/8 on a number line, we need to divide the interval between 0 and 3 into 8 equal parts, and then count 23 of these parts from 0.

The number line would look something like below as shown.

Thus, the required number line represents 2 whole intervals (16/8) and then 7 more parts (7/8) from 0, and ends up at the point marked 2 3/8.

Suppose pieces of chocolate pie served at a restaurant average 350 calories with a standard deviation of 20 calories. Calories have a Normal distribution due to inexact cutting of the pies. The shaded area represents the proportion of pieces of pie that have more than:__________

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose pieces of chocolate pie served at a restaurant average 350 calories with a standard deviation of 20 calories. Calories have a Normal distribution due to inexact cutting of the pies. Which graph represents the proportion of pieces of pie that have more than 375 calories.

Answer: The z score is used to determine how many standard deviations that the raw score is above or below the mean. If the z score is positive then the raw score is above the mean and for a negative z score means the  raw score is below the mean. The z score is given as:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

Given that: μ = 350 calories, σ = 20 calories, x > 375

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{375-350}{20}=1.25[/tex]

From the graph, The shaded area represents the proportion of pieces of pie that have more than 375 calories

From the normal distribution table, P(x > 375) = P(z > 1.25) = 1 - P(z < 1.25)

= 1 - 0.8944 = 0.1056 = 10.56%

show that n(n+1)(n+2) is divisible by 6
Solution
(​

Answers

Proof by induction

Base case:

n=1: 1*2*3=6 is obviously divisible by six.

Assumption: For every n>1 n(n+1)(n+2) is divisible by 6.

For n+1:

(n+1)(n+2)(n+3)=

(n(n+1)(n+2)+3(n+1)(n+2))

We have assumed that n(n+1)(n+2) is divisble by 6.

We now only need to prove that 3(n+1)(n+2) is divisible by 6.

If 3(n+1)(n+2) is divisible by 6, then (n+1)(n+2) must be divisible by 2.

The "cool" part about this proof.

Since n is a natural number greater than 1 we can say the following:

If n is an odd number, then n+1 is even, then n+1 is divisible by 2 thus (n+1)(n+2) is divisible by 2,so we have proved what we wanted.

If n is an even number" then n+2 is even, then n+1 is divisible by 2 thus (n+1)(n+2) is divisible by 2,so we have proved what we wanted.

Therefore by using the method of mathematical induction we proved that for every natural number n, n(n+1)(n+2) is divisible by 6. QED.

What is 10x-2(x+6)=52 ?

Answers

Answer:x=8

Step-by-step explanation:Reorder the terms:

10x + -2(6 + x) = 52

10x + (6 * -2 + x * -2) = 52

10x + (-12 + -2x) = 52

Reorder the terms:

-12 + 10x + -2x = 52

Combine like terms: 10x + -2x = 8x

-12 + 8x = 52

Solving

-12 + 8x = 52

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '12' to each side of the equation.

-12 + 12 + 8x = 52 + 12

Combine like terms: -12 + 12 = 0

0 + 8x = 52 + 12

8x = 52 + 12

Combine like terms: 52 + 12 = 64

8x = 64

Divide each side by '8'.

x = 8

An oil tanker can be emptied by the main pump in 4 hours. An auxiliary pump can empty the tanker in 11 hours. If the main pump is started at 7 PM​, when should the auxiliary pump be started so that the tanker is emptied by 10 PM​?

Answers

Answer:

The pump should be added by 8PM

Step-by-step explanation:

An oil tanker can be emptied by the main pump in 4 hours.

An auxiliary pump can empty the tanker in 11 hours.

the main pump is started at 7 PM,and we have 10 PM - 7PM = 3 hours to empty the tank.

So we have to look for the combined rate of the both pumps .

Let's say the volume= x

Rate of first pump= x/4

Rate of second pump= x/11

The rate will be added together

Combined rate= x/11 + x/4

Combined rate= 15x/44

But they have three hours to complete their pump

15x/44 = 3

X=1.0227

The pump should be added by 8PM
