According to a recent study, the number of prisoners in a prison decreased by 312 inmates over a one-year period. If the decrease was the
same for each of the 12 months, write the monthly decrease as a quotient of integers and find the monthly decrease.
The expression to find the monthly decrease in prisoners is.
(Do not simplify.)
The number of inmates in the prison decreased by inmates per month.
(Simplify your answer.)
Over a year, a prison's population dropped by 312 inmates. We know that 1 Year = 12 Months.
Additionally, considering that each of the 12 months declined at the same rate.
the Monthly decrease in members = 312 / 12 = 26
Therefore, the expression used to calculate the monthly drop in prisoner population = Number of prisoners decreased per year / Number of months
Note: If the monthly drop rate is the same, the aforementioned equation is correct ( for all months in that year)

A person's systolic blood pressure, which is measured in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg), depends on a person's age, in years. The equation
p=0.007y^2-0.003y+122
gives a person's blood pressure, p,at the age y year
A.) Find the systolic pressure, to the nearest tenth of a millimeter, for a person of age 41 years.
The systolic pressure, to the nearest tenth of a millimeter, for a person of age 41 years is; 133.6 mm Hg
How to solve problems using quadratic equations?We are given the equation that gives a person's blood pressure, p at the age y year is;
p = 0.007y² - 0.003y + 122
To find the systolic pressure for a person of age 41 years, just plug in y = 41 into the given quadratic equation to get;
p(41) = 0.007(41)² - 0.003(41) + 122
p(41) = 11.767 - 0.123 + 122
p(41) = 133.6
Thus, the systolic pressure, to the nearest tenth of a millimeter, for a person of age 41 years is; 133.6

An airplane has economy and first class seating.
There are s seats in each row in economy.
There are t seats in each row in first class.
There are 9 rows in first class and 24 rows in economy.
Write down an expression, in terms of s and t, for the number of seats on the
airplane.
The expression, in terms of s and t, for the number of seats on the airplane is given by 24 s + 9 t.
We are given that there are 2 types of seating in an airplane which are economy and first class seating.
Also,
We are given that:
There are s seats in economy in each row and there are t seats in first class in each row.
Now, there are 24 rows in economy class seating.
So, number of seats in economy class = 24 × s = 24 s
And, there are 9 rows in first class seating.
So, number of seats in first class = 9 × t = 9 t
The total number of seats then will be = 24 s + 9 t
Therefore the expression, in terms of s and t, for the number of seats on the airplane is given by 24 s + 9 t.

If you have the function f(x) = 5^x - 5 then find the value of f(t)
The value of the function is [tex]5^t-5[/tex] .
A function is defined as a expression containing one or more variables.
A function, in technical terms, is a mechanism to connect a collection of inputs to a set of outputs.
A function of a single variable (say x) is defined mathematically as g(x).
Let us consider a function of a variable x such that it is defined as:
g(x)=x+1
Here the output are calculated for all values of x . At x=1 the value of the function is denoted as g(1)=1+1=2.
Mathematically to calculate the value of the function f(x) for any particular value of x we substitute the value of x into the value of f(x).
Now the given function is given as:
[tex]f(x)=5^x-5[/tex]
Therefore at x=t,

and the agreed focal date is 92 days from today, what is the size of the final payment?
The size of the final payment is $5378.08
What is the size of the final payment?P1 = One loan payment = $4000
P2 = Second loan payment = $6000
P3 = Payment = $5000
Let P4 = Second payment
n1 = 200 days
n2 = 63 days
n3 = 92 days
r = Interest rate = 8.3%
[P1 * (1+ (r * n1 /365))] + [P2 * (1+ (r * n2 /365))] = P3 + [P4 / (1+(r*n3/365)]
[$4000 * (1+(8.3%*200/365)] + [$6000 * (1+(8.3%*63/365)] = $5000 + [P4 / (1+(8.3%*92/365))]

Altogether, 2 5 of the people said ‘yes’. 6 15 of the men said ‘yes’. What percentage of women said ‘no’ out of the total survey population?
50% of women who said ‘no’ out of the total survey population if 15 men and 75 women were asked if they had seen the company’s latest TV advertisement.
What is the percentage?It's the ratio of two integers stated as a fraction of a hundred parts. It is a metric for comparing two sets of data, and it is expressed as a percentage using the percent symbol.
It is given that:
Market research was undertaken to determine whether an ad campaign was successful for the software company.
Total number of people = 15 + 75 = 90
The number of people who said yes = (2/5)90 = 36
The number of people who said no = 90 - 36 = 54
The number of men said yes = (6/15)x15 = 6
The number of men said No = 15 - 6 = 9
The number of women who said no = 54 - 9 = 45
Percentage = (45/90)x100
The percentage of women who said ‘no’ out of the total survey population:
= 50%
Thus, 50% of women who said ‘no’ out of the total survey population if 15 men and 75 women were asked if they had seen the company’s latest TV advertisement.

The solution of the geometrical system is (x, y) = (2.5, 48.5).
What are the missing values associated with a geometrical system?In this question we have a picture representing two lines and a semirray that brings out two formulae for supplementary angles, these are shown below:
(x + 10) + 30 + (3 · y + 2) = 180
x + 3 · y = 148 (1)
30 + (3 · y + 2) + (5 · x - 10) = 180
5 · x + 3 · y = 158 (2)
And now we resolve the entire system of linear equations by substitution:
By (1):
x = 148 - 3 · y
(1) in (2):
5 · (148 - 3 · y) + 3 · y = 158
740 - 15 · y + 3 · y = 158
12 · y = 582
y = 48.5
By (1):
x = 148 - 3 · 48.5
x = 2.5
The solution of the geometrical system is (x, y) = (2.5, 48.5).

Maureen knows the domain of f(x) is the set of positive real numbers if she graphs f(x) on the coordinate plane what must be true about the graph
The correct option is C, if f(x) has a domain only with positive values, the graph will be on the first and fourth quadrant.
What must be true about the graph?We know that the domain of f(x) is only the set of positive real numbers. Now remember that the domain of a function is the set of the inputs of that function (the inputs are on the horizontal axis).
Then the graph of f(x) will only be on the positive side of the horizontal axis. We know that the two quadrants that are on that region are the first quadrant and the fourth quadrant.
Then if f(x) has a domain only with positive values, the graph will be on the first and fourth quadrant, this means that the correct option is C.

How many milliliters of a 28% sugar Solution do we need to mix with 75 milliliters of a 10% sugar solution so that the resulting mixture is a 13% sugar solution?
We need to mix 15 ml of 28 % of solution to get the resulting mixture as a 13 % sugar mixture.
Let the amount of 28 % sugar solution be x ml.
We are given that:
10 % sugar solution = 75 ml
Total solution = 75 ml + x ml
We need the solution to be 13 % sugar solution.
So, we get that:
28 % x + 10 % ( 75 ) = 13 % ( 75 + x )
28 x + 750 = 13 ( 75 + x )
28 x + 750 = 975 + 13 x
28 x - 13 x = 975 - 750
15 x = 225
x = 225 / 15
x = 15
Therefore, we need to mix 15 ml of 28 % of solution to get the resulting mixture as a 13 % sugar mixture.

Which is the least whole number that rounds to 2000 when rounded to the nearest hundred
The required number is 2001.
To solve this problem we need to know the concept of rounding off.
Rounding off a number means making the value of number equal to the nearest tens place.
When we round off 45 we will get 50; when we round off 44 we get 40.
So, if a number has 5 at its unit place then it will be rounded off to the tens place which is ahead of 5 and if a number is less than 5 then it is rounded off to the tens place before that number.
Here it is asked to find the least whole number that rounds off to 2000 when rounded off to nearest hundred which will be 2001.
