Some time ago , Keith's height and his nephew's height were at a ratio of 15:7. Then, Keiths height increased by 16% and his nephew,s height doubled. Keith is now 34 cm taller than his nephew, what is their total current height

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of Keith's height and his nephew's height is 15:7. Let keith height be x cm and his nephews height be y cm.

[tex]\frac{x}{y}=\frac{15}{7} \\x=\frac{15}{7}y[/tex]

Keiths height increased by 16% , therefore Keith new height is (100% + 16%) × x = 1.16x

The nephew height is doubled, therefore his new height is 2y.

Given that Keith is now 34 cm taller than his nephew

1.16x = 2y + 34

but x = (15/7)y

[tex]1.16(\frac{15}{7} )y=2y+34\\\\\frac{87}{35} y=2y+34\\\\\frac{87}{35} y-2y=34\\\\\frac{17}{35}y=34\\ \\y=\frac{34*35}{17}\\ \\y=70\ cm[/tex]

The nephews new height = 2y = 2(70) = 140 cm

Keith new height = 2y + 34 = 140 + 34 = 174 cm

Their total current height = 140 cm + 174 cm = 314 cm

The size of a television screen is given as 95 cm, correct to the nearest 5 cm.
Write down the upper bound of the size of the television screen.

Answers

Answer:

U B = 100.5

Step-by-step explanation:

the upper bound of the size of the television screen= 95.5 since it is corrected to the nearest 5 then the U B =100.5 cm

The upper bound of the size of the television screen is 100.5 cm

The conversion of the size of the television screen to the nearest 5cm from the initial size of 95 cm is = 100 cm.

Now, the upper bound of the size of the television screen which is 100 is can be determined by the addition of a half value to 100 cm:

i.e.

= (1/2) + 100 cm

= 0.5 + 100 cm

= 100.5 cm

Therefore, we can conclude that the upper bound of the size of the television screen is 100.5 cm

Given that T{X: 2<x ≤ 9} where x is an integer. what is n(T)

Answers

Answer:

n(T) = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the set T{X: 2<x ≤ 9} where x is an integer, the element of the set T will be {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}.  note that from the inequality set 2<x ≤ 9, x is not equal to 2 but greater than 2. The inequality can be divided into two as shown;

If 2<x ≤ 9 then 2<x and x≤9

If 2<x, this means x>2 but not equal to 2. This is the reason why 2 is not contained in the set T.

Similarly if x≤9, this shows that x can not be greater than 9 but less than or equal to 9.

Since the set T =  {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}, we are to find n(T). n(T) means cardinality of the set T and cardinality of a set is defined as the total number of element in a set.

Hence n()n(T) = 7 (since there are 7 elements in the set T)

If the average of 5, 8, b, 9 and 4 is 7. Find the value of b.

A. 9 B. 8 C. 7 D. 5​

Answers

So our set of numbers is  5,8,b,9,4 . And we know the average is 7. So first, you have to add all the numbers in the set : 5+8+9+4 which gives you 26. We also know that to get the average of a set of numbers you have to add all the numbers and divide that sum by the how many numbers you have, in thsi case we have 5 numbers including b . So our equation now is : 26+b÷5=7. And if you plug in 9 for b you get 26+9÷5=7 and 26+9÷5  does equal 7 so therefore A is your answer

Given that v = u + 10t, find y when
u= 6 and t = 9.

Answers

Answer:

hey here is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Subject of the formula:

It is a variable which is expressed in terms of other variables involved in the formula.

Formulas are written so that a single variable, the subject of the formula is on the L.H.S. of the equation. Everything else goes on the right side of the equation. We evaluate the formula by substituting for the literal numbers on the right hand side.

For example:

In the formula v = u + at, v is the subject.

To find v in the example, we substitute the values u, a and t in the R.H.S. of the equation.

Changing the subject of the formula:

To change the subject of a formula, begin with the variable to become the new subject, and apply inverse operation as for solving equations in the opposite order to the order conventions.  

1. To make ‘u’ the subject of the formula in v = u + at,  

  [subtract at from both sides]

v - at = u

or, u = v - at

2. To make ‘t’ the subject of the formula, v = u + at,

 [subtract u from both sides]

v - u = at

or, (v - u )/a = t

or, t = (v - u)/a

Change the Subject of a Formula

The value of the equation is v = 96 when u = 6 and t = 9

What is an Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

v = u + 10t   be equation (1)

when u = 6 and t = 9

Substitute the value of u and t in the equation , we get

v = 6 + 10 ( 9 )

On simplifying the equation , we get

v = 6 + 90

v = 96

Therefore , the value of v is 96

Hence , the equation is v = 96

Flight time from Houston to Orlando is 2 hours to 20 minutes. I arrived at Orlando at 4:15 pm. What time did I set of ?

Answers

Answer:

1:55 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

So, you arrive at 4: 15 pm in Orlando after a 2 hr and 20 minute flight from Houston.  So, lets start with the easy part: let's subtract the 2 hrs part.  

2 hrs earlier from 4:15 pm is 2:15 pm.

Then, you have to subtract the 20 minutes.  Well, it's quite obvious that if you left at 2:00 pm, that would be a total of 2 hrs and 15 minutes.  Just subtract the 15 minutes from the 2:15 pm.  However, it's 20 minutes, not 15, so you have to still subtract that last five minutes.  

So, 2:00 pm minus 5 minutes would equal 1:55 pm.

Answer: 1:55 pm

Explanation:

X + 2hr 20min = 4hr 15min
X = 4hr 15min - 2hr 20 min
X = 1hr 55 min

Or X = 1:55 pm

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for this is

∠G = 1/2(arcEH - arcHF)

We have angle G (5x - 10) and we have arcEH (195) so we have to solve for x to find the measure of arcEHF so we can add arcEH + arcHF = arcEHF

Filling in the formula with what we have:

[tex]5x-10=\frac{1}{2}(195-(8x+17))[/tex]

which simplifies down a bit to

[tex]5x-10=\frac{1}{2}(195-8x-17)[/tex] which simplifies down a bit more to

[tex]5x-10=\frac{1}{2}(178-8x)[/tex] Multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the fraction and get:

2(5x - 10) = 178 - 8x which of course simplifies to

10x - 20 = 178 - 8x. Now add 8x to both sides and at the same time add 20 to both sides to get:

18x = 198 so

x = 11. Now we can find the measure of arcHF:

arcHF is 8x + 17, so arcHF is 8(11) + 17 which is 105°.

arcEH + arcHF = arcEHF so

195 + 105 = arcEHF so

arcEHF = 300°

Given that the quadrilateral EFGH is a trapezoid, m∠H = 62° and m∠HEG = 64° calculate m∠FEG

Answers

Answer:

m∠FEG == 54°

Step-by-step explanation:

you should know that m∠FEG is equal m∠EGH. this is because sides HE and FG are equal this also means opposite angles of this sides (m∠FEG and m∠EGH) are equal.

first find the measure of m∠EGH from triangle EHG.

m∠H + m∠HEG + m∠EGH= 180°

62° + 64° + m∠EGH = 180°

m∠EGH=180° - 126°

m∠EGH=54°

due to the fact that sides HE and FG are equal thus opposite angles of sides HE and FG are also equal.

m∠FEG = m∠EGH = 54°

In right triangle ΔABC (m∠C = 90°), point P is the intersection of the angle bisectors of the acute angles. The distance from P to the hypotenuse is equal to 4 in. Find the perimeter of △ABC if AB = 12 in.

Answers

Answer:

the perimeter of ΔABC is 32in

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that intersection point of the angle bisectors refers to the incenter of the triangle,.

Given tmthe radius of 4inch for the centre of the incircle.

One of the properties of the incircle is that the distances (d) from vertex C to the nearest touchpoints are equal and have the value

In an incircle , the distances (d) along vertex C and touchpoints have equal value and can be expressed as

d = 1/2(a +b -c)

And a, b, c represent lengths of the sides

We were given the hypotenuse (c) as 12 in, with the radius of 4inch for the

distance from the right-angle vertex C to the incircle touchpoints .

We can determine the sum a+b as

4 = (1/2)(a+b -12) .

4/(1/2)= (a+b -12)

8= (a+b -12)

20=a+b

Which is the addition of length of the two legs of the triangle.

We can determine the perimeter which is the addition of the leg lengths as well as the hypotenuse length.

perimeter = 20 in + 12 in = 32 in

Therefore, the perimeter of ΔABC is 32in
