jessica weighs x+34 pounds and Ronda weighs 12 pounds less. If Jessica gains 5 pounds and Ronda loses 2 pounds, what is the sum of their new heights.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2x+59.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let J represent Jessica's weight and R represent Ronda's weight.

Jessica weighs x+34 pounds. Thus:

[tex]J=x+34[/tex]

Ronda weighs 12 pounds less than Jessica. In other words:

[tex]R=J-12=(x+34)-12\\R=x+22[/tex]

The sum of their weights, therefore, is:

[tex]J+R\\=(x+34)+(x+22)=2x+56[/tex]

Now, if Jessica gains 5 pounds and Ronda loses 2 pounds, the net gain of the total weight would be 3 pounds. Thus, we only need to add 3 to the original total to find the sum of their new weights:

[tex]2x+56+3=2x+59[/tex]

The sum of the new [weights] is represented by 2x+59.

If a is an arbitrary nonzero constant, what happens to a/b as b approaches 0

Answers

It depends on how b approaches 0

If b is positive and gets closer to zero, then we say b is approaching 0 from the right, or from the positive side. Let's say a = 1. The equation a/b turns into 1/b. Looking at a table of values, 1/b will steadily increase without bound as positive b values get closer to 0.

On the other side, if b is negative and gets closer to zero, then 1/b will be negative and those negative values will decrease without bound. So 1/b approaches negative infinity if we approach 0 on the left (or negative) side.

The graph of y = 1/x shows this. See the diagram below. Note the vertical asymptote at x = 0. The portion to the right of it has the curve go upward to positive infinity as x approaches 0. The curve to the left goes down to negative infinity as x approaches 0.

A car advertisement claims that a certain car can accelerate from rest to 70 km/hr in 7 seconds find the car acceleration

Answers

Answer:

acceleration [tex]\approx 2.78\,\,\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The acceleration is the change in velocity per unit of time.

Therefore to have this rate in appropriate units that can combine, we re-write the change from 0 to 70 km/h in meters per second using:

[tex]70 \frac{km}{h} = \frac{70000}{3600} \frac{m}{s}[/tex]

so in this case the acceleration becomes:

[tex]accel=\frac{change\,\,vel}{change\,\,time} =\frac{70000m}{3600\,*7\,s^2} \approx 2.78\,\,\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]

Simplify this equation -8a-5a

Answers

Answer:

-13a

Step-by-step explanation:

Since -8 and -5 have like variables, you can subtract them. -8-5 is -13, so the answer is -13a.

Answer:

-13a

Step-by-step explanation:

These two numbers are already like terms, so you can subtract it easily.  

First, don't look at the a.

-8-5= -13 because if something is negative and gets subtracted, that means it'll still be negative.

Now that we now it equals -13, we can add the variable a back onto the answer.  We get -13a.  

A rectangle's length and width are in a ratio of 3:1. The perimeter is 72 inches. What are the length and width?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the sides exist in a ratio to one another, then when you multiply some number x by both the length and the width, they still remain as a ratio. The length will be 3x and the width will be 1x. The perimeter formula is

P = 2L + 2W and since our perimeter is 72 and we have both the length and the width, we can fill in the formula and solve for x:

72 = 2(3x) + 2(1x) and

72 = 6x + 2x and

72 = 8x so

9 = x.

If x = 9, then 1x = 9 and 3x = 27. Let's check the perimeter against those side lengths.

P = 2(3x) + 2(1x) and

P = 2(27) + 2(9) and

P = 54 + 18 so

P = 72

and you're done! (The bold numbers above are the width and length, respectively.)

Answer:

x = 5, y = 8, z = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent so to find x:

x + 7 = 3x - 3

-2x = -10

x = 5

To find y:

y + 2 = 2y - 6

-y = -8

y = 8

ASAP i need to know the complete working​

Answers

Answer:

a(1):30%

(2):2135.34

(3):15000

Step-by-step explanation:

a(1):the total is 18750 and 5625 was not taxed therefore 5625 of 18750 was not taxed so get the amount expressed as a percentage by multiplying by 100

{5625/18750}×100

(2):so get the tax from the taxable amount and the taxable amount is 13125 and the tax is 22% of it so (22/100)×13125=2887.5

she takes home the amount remaining after taxation so 18750-2887.5(tax)(don't subtract 5625)=15862.5

she receives the above amount in 52 equal amounts so divide 15862.5/52 to get one amount =305.048 (meaning that per week she receives one of the 52 equal amounts I guess)

(3):so the original salary before moving to A was 100% but after moving it increases by 25 so the salary is 125% =18750(don't deduct tax I guess) so it will be (100/125)×18750

after allowing 20 percent discount on the marked price of a radio 15 percent vat is levied on it , if its price become rs 22080 ,what amount was levied in the vat​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, let's say that the price was P, a real number.

After 20% discount it become P - 20% * P = P* (1-20%) = P * (1 - 0.2)

= P * 0.8

And then we take 15% for the VAT, the new price become P * 0.8 * ( 1 + 15%)

= P * 0.8 * 1.15

And this is equal to 22080, so

P * 0.8 * 1.15 = 22080

and the amount of the VAT is P *0.8 * 0.15

[tex]=\dfrac{22080}{1.15}*0.15=2880[/tex]

Hope this helps.

I NEED HELP ASAP FOR THIS MATH QUESTION

Answers

Answer:

The answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you want to isolate the variable you are look for, 'l'. First subtract [pi]L from both sides. Then subtract S from both sides.

-[pi]L+S=[pi]r(superscript)2 ->

-[pi]L=[pi]r(superscript)2-S

Now, since you have your variable 'l', you want to remove the [pi] away from your variable. To do this, multiply by negative 1 divided by pi, or -1/[pi].

L=S-r(superscript)2.

Therefore, the answer is C.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]s = \pi .l \: + \pi. {r}^{2} [/tex]

Make the term including 'l' stand alone.

[tex]s - \pi. {r }^{2} = \pi.l[/tex]

Now make L stand alone by dividing through by pi.

[tex] \frac{s - \pi. {r}^{2} }{\pi} = l[/tex]

This is the same as

[tex] \frac{s}{\pi} - {r}^{2} = l[/tex]

Glass A measures 84 mm in diameter and 175 mm tall. Glass B measures 96 mm in diameter and 125 mm tall. Which glass holds more liquid? How much more?

Answers

Answer:

Glass A

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume = п r ² h

п = 3.14  aprox.

r = radius = diameter/2

h = tall

glass A

volume = 3.14 * (84/2)² * 175

volume = 3.14 * 42² * 175

volume = 3.14 * 1764 * 175

volume = 969318mm³

glass B

volume = 3.14 * (96/2)² * 125

volume = 3.14* 48² * 125

volume = 3.14 * 2304 * 125

volume = 904320mm³

Answer:

969318 > 904320

The graph of g(x) is a translation of the function f(x)=x^2. The vertex of g(x) dislocated five units above and seven units to the right of the vertex of f(x). which equation represents g(x)

Answers

[tex]f(x)[/tex] passes through origin, i.e. $(0,0)$

if you move 5 units up, it should pass through $(0,5)$

so you'll add 5 to $y$ i.e. $y+5=x^2$ this satisfies $(0,5)$

and to move right, it should pass through $(7,0)$ so you'll subtract $7$ from $x$ i.e. $y=(x-7)^2$

now combine both translations

the angle of elevation of the top of a tower from a point 42m away from the base on level ground is 36 find the height of the tower​

Answers

Answer:

30.51 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The distance from the point to the base of the tower = 42 m, the angle of elevation = 36°.

According to sine rule if a,b,c are the sides of a triangle and its respective opposite angles are A, B, C. Therefore:

[tex]\frac{a}{sin(A)} =\frac{b}{sin(B)}=\frac{c}{sin(C)}[/tex]

Let the height of the tower be a and the angle opposite the height be A = angle of elevation = 36°

Also let the  distance from the point to the base of the tower be b = 42 m, and the angle opposite the base of the tower be B

To find B, since the angle between the height of the tower and the base is 90°, we use:

B + 36° + 90° = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)

B + 126 = 180

B = 180 - 126

B = 54°

Therefore using sine rule:

[tex]\frac{a}{sin(A)} =\frac{b}{sin(B)}\\\\\frac{a}{sin(36)}=\frac{42}{sin(54)}\\\\ a=\frac{42*sin(36)}{sin(54)}\\ \\a=30.51\ meters[/tex]

The height of the tower is 30.51 meters
