The Master Chief collects spiders and starfish. If his spiders have 8 legs and his starfish have 5 legs, how many starfish must he have, given that his spider/starfish collection totals 19 creatures and 116 legs

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12 starfish

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a system of equations where x is the number of starfish he has and y is the number of spiders he has:

x + y = 19

5x + 8y = 116

Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by -8:

-8x - 8y = -152

5x + 8y = 116

Add these together and solve for x:

-3x = -36

x = 12

So, he has 12 starfish.

Answer 2

The total number of starfish is 12 starfishes

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 number of starfish be = x

Let the number of spiders be = y

The number of legs for spiders = 8

The number of legs for starfish = 5

So , the equation will be

The total number of legs for x starfish = 5x

The total number of legs for y spiders = 8y

The total number of creatures = 19

So , x + y = 19   be equation (1)

And ,

The total number of legs = 116

So , 5x + 8y = 116   be equation (2)

Now , from equation (1) , x = 19 - y

Substituting the value of equation (1) in equation (2) , we get

5x + 8y = 116

5 ( 19 - y ) + 8y = 116

95 - 5y + 8y = 116

95 + 3y = 116

Subtracting 95 on both sides , we get

3y = 21

Divide by 3 on both sides , we get

y = 7

So , the number of spiders is 7 spiders

Substituting the value of y in equation (1) , we get

x + y = 19

x + 7 = 19

Subtract 7 on both sides , we get

x = 12

Therefore , the value of x is 12

Hence , The total number of starfish is 12 starfishes

Answers

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

because line FB divides triangle f v w into two equal halves therefore line WP is equal to line PV which is equal to 12

The required value of the PV is 12 in triangle DEF where p is the incenter.


Point P is the incenter of ΔDEF. Point P is the point of concurrency of the angle bisector. PV to be determined.

What is incenter?

The incenter of a triangle is the intersection point of the internal angle bisectors of the triangle. In additional expressions, it can be clarified as the point where the internal angle bisectors of the triangle and perpendicular distance from this point to any of the sides of triangle is the same.

Since in triangle FGH, P is the incenter and PW, PV,PX is perpendicular distance to the sides HF, GF and GH respectively.
From image,
PW = 12
So by the property of incenter, perpendicular distance from this point to any of the sides of triangle is the same.

PW = PV
PV = 12


Thus, the required value of the PV is 12 in triangle DEF where p is the incenter.

(Choose 2)

Answers

Answer:

Options (1) and (4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation for the deposit in the saving account is,

y = 20x + 50

Here, y = Amount of money in the account

20 = money added in the account every month

50 = Initial deposit

By comparing this equation with the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line,

y = mx + b

Here, slope m = money added in the account every month

And b = y-intercept

Therefore, Options (1) and (4) will be the answer.

Juan, Pedro y Luis construyen un muro de 60 metros de largo. Juan construye el triple de Pedro y Luis el doble de Juan. ¿Cuántos metros construyó cada uno?

Answers

Answer:

Pedro make 6 m of wall, Juan make 18 m of the wall and Luis make 36 m of the wall.

Step-by-step explanation:

Juan, Pedro and Luis build a 60 meter long wall. Juan builds triple the size of Pedro and Luis double the size of Juan. How many meters did each one build?

Total length of the wall is 60 m.

Let Pedro make p length of the wall.

Juan make = 3 p

Luis make = 6 p

So,

According to the question

60 = p + 3 p + 6 p

60 = 10 p

p = 6

So, Pedro make 6 m of wall, Juan make 18 m of the wall and Luis make 36 m of the wall.

7.43% of 47.83=(rounded to the nearest hundredth) 3.55

7.43/100*x/47.83

x=3.55

because we are solving for x

we can also cross check by taking out the percentage

x/100*3.55/47.83

47.83x=355

x=7.42212000836

which is about 7.43%

when servicing a heating boiler and radiators, a plumer knows that the time he will take is given by the formula

time = 1 hour + 45 minutes per radiator

he charges his costumer a call-out fee of £30, plus £20 per hour
how much should a costumer be charged for servicing a heating boiler and four radiators

Answers

Answer:

£110

Step-by-step explanation:

We know how much time it takes for a boiler and a radiator, and we need to know how much it will cost for 1 boiler and 4 radiators. We have an initial cost of £30, and since hes doing a boiler - which we know takes an hour - we can already add £20 for a start of £50.

Now, there are 4 radiators, that take 45 minutes each. We need to use this equation:

[tex](45*4)/60[/tex]

We divide by 60 because there are 60 minutes in an hour, and he charges by hour. So:

[tex]180/60=3[/tex]

Now, to find out how much to charge, we need to figure out how much to add to the £50. Since it's £20 an hour, and it takes 3 hours to do the 4 radiators, we need to multiply:

[tex]3*20=60[/tex]

Now we add our totals for a grand total of...
