A first number plus twice a second number is 5. Twice the first number plus the second totals 13. Find the numbers.

Answers

Answer 1

Let a and b = the numbers we must find.

a + 2b = 5.....Equation A

2a + b = 13.......Equation B

We have a system of equations in two variables.

I will solve A for little a.

a + 2b = 5

a = 5 - 2b

Now I will plug 5 - 2b for a in B.

2(5 - 2b) + b = 13

10 - 4b + b = 13

-3b = 3

b = -1

To find a, replace b with -1 in EITHER A or B.

I will use Equation A.

a + 2b = 5

a + 2(-1) = 5

a - 2 = 5

a = 7

The two numbers are -1 and 7.

Understand?

Answers

Answer:

a)11cm

b)49.5cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the perimeter you use the formula

o/360×2piR

since 2pi R=18pi cm,to find the radius you cancel pi from both sides 2r/2=18/2...so the radius is 9cm

therefore the perimeter will be:

70/360×2×22/7×9

27720/2520

=11cm

then to find the area you say

o/360×pi R²

70/360×22/7×9²

124740/2520

=49.5cm²

If the lines 5x + 3my – 2 = 0 and 3x + 7y + 1 = 0 are parallel, then what is the value of m?

(a)9/35

(b)35/9

(c)9/5

(d)5/9

Please give full explanation!!!
ASAP!!​

Answers

Answer:

35/9

Step-by-step explanation:

7y=-3x-1

y=-3/7x-1/7

m=-3/7

Now,

3my=-5x+2

y=-5/3mx+2/3

So

-3/7=-5/3m

-9m=-35

m=35/9

Answer:

35/9

Step-by-step explanation:

What we need to know:

Parallel lines have the same slope

slope intercept form: y = mx + b

m = slope

The first thing we will want to do is put both equations in slope intercept form.

We must do this so we can identify the slope.

First equation:

3x + 7y + 1 = 0

Solve for y

Subtract 1 from both sides

3x + 7y + 1 - 1 = 0 - 1.

3x + 7y = -1

Subtract 3x from both sides

3x - 3x + 7y = -1 - 3x

7y = -3x - 1

Divide both sides by 7

7y/7 = (-3x - 1)/7

y = -3/7x - 1/7

So the equation of the first line is y = -3/7x - 1/7

Second equation:

5x + 3my – 2 = 0

Solve for y

Subtract 5x from both sides

5x - 5x + 3my - 2 = 0 - 5x

3my - 2 = -5x

Add 2 to both sides

3my - 2 + 2 = -5x + 2

3my = -5x + 2

Divide both sides by 3m

3my/3m = (-5x + 2)/3m

y = -5x/3m + 2/3m

So the equation of the second line is y = -5x/3m + 2/3m

So we have the two equations:

y = -3/7x - 1/7 and y = -5x/3m + 2/3m and we want to find the value of m if the two lines are parallel

Lines that are parallel have similar slopes

So the slope of the first equation should be the same as the slope of the second equation

The slope of y = -3/7x - 1/7 is -3/7 as it takes the spot of "m" in y = mx + b.

The slope of y = -5x/3m + 2/3m is -5/3m as it takes the spot of "m"

If the slopes of parallel lines must be similar than -3/7 = -5/3m

(Note that we've just created an equation that we can use to solve for m)

We now solve for m

-3/7 = -5/3m

Cross multiply

3*-3m = -9m

7*-5=-35

we acquire -35 = -9m

Divide both sides by -9

-35/-9 = 35/9

-9m/-9=

We're left with m = 35/9

So we can conclude that the value of m would be 35/9 if the two lines are parallel

Each side of a pentagon is 10 cm greater than the previous side. If the perimeter of this pentagon is 500 cm, find the lengths of the sides.

Answers

Answer:

(I'll leave cm out to save space and time in the answer)

the perimeter is 500, there are 5 sides. so on average a side will be 100.

that's already the important key idea.

it's indeed 100 for the third side, the second will be 10 less, the fourth 10 more (making the 2and and the 4th side 200 in sum, and therefore still 100 on average).

Can someone please help me with these work rate questions!

Answers

Answer:

1/8 rooms per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Beatrice can wallpaper 1 room in 8 hours. The work rate is how many rooms Beatrice can wallpaper in one unit of time (in this case, one hour).

Another way of saying 1 room in 8 hours is 1 room/8 hours. We want to find the rate over one hour, so we want to make the denominator ( in hours) equal to 0.

With fractions, we can divide/multiply both the numerator and denominator by the same amount, and still keep the fraction. Therefore, we want to make 8 hours 1 hour by multiplication or division. Since anything divided by itself is equal to 1, we can say that 8/8 is equal to 1. Therefore, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by 8 to get

(1 room/8) = (8 hours / 8)

= (1/8 rooms) / 1 hour

Therefore, the work rate is 1/8 rooms per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

For radioactive decay, the amount should decrease over time. Given the function:

f(x) = 10(0.98[tex])^{x}[/tex]

We substitute the time of x = 10 hours:

f(10) =  10(0.98[tex])^{10}[/tex]

f(10) = 8.17

Round 8.17 to 8.2.

Therefore 8.2 units will remain after 10 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle has three angles.

The sum of its angles = 180⁰

[ By angle sum property ]

Let the unknown angle be 'x'

Then,

30⁰ + 90⁰ + x = 180⁰

120⁰ + x = 180⁰

x = 180⁰ - 120⁰

x = 60⁰

Therefore, the unknown angle will be equal to 60⁰

60° because 90°+ 30°= 120°and 180°-120°=60°

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You are looking for the hypotenuse.

c = ?

a = 80

b = 18

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

c^2 = 18^2 + 80^2

c^2 = 324 + 6400

c^2 = 6724

sqrt(c^2) = sqrt(6724)

c = 82 inches

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 82 \ inches}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the length of the rake.

We know it hits the wall 80 inches above the ground and the bottom of the rake is 18 inches away from the wall. The point where the top of the rake hits the wall and the distance away from the wall are the legs that form a right angle and the rake is the hypotenuse.

We want to find the hypotenuse or the length of the rake. We will use the Pythagorean Theorem.

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

In this theorem, a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.

The length of the legs are 80 inches (distance from ground to top of rake)  and 18 inches (distance from wall to bottom of rake). The hypotenuse is unknown.

a= 80 in b= 18 in

Substitute the known values into the formula.

[tex](80 \ in)^2+(18 \ in)^2= c^2[/tex]

Solve the exponents.

(80 in)²= 80 in*80 in= 6400 in²(18 in)²= 324 in²

[tex]6400 \ in^2+ 324 \ in^2= c^2[/tex]

Add.

[tex]6724 \ in^2=c^2[/tex]

We are solving for c, the hypotenuse, so we must isolate the variable. It is being squared. The inverse of a square is a square root, so we take the square root of both sides.

[tex]\sqrt {6724 \ in^2}= \sqrt{c^2}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{6724 \ in^2}=c[/tex]

[tex]82 \ in =c[/tex]

The length of the rake is 82 inches.
