Three years from now Tom will be twice as old as Jean and two years ago the sum of their ages was 26. How old is Tom now?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Tom'age: a

Jean'age: b

3+a=2(b+3)

a-2+b-2=26

or

a =2b+3

2b+3-2+b-2=26

or

a=2b+3

3b=27

or

a=21

b=9

Answer 2

Thus the required present age of Tom and Jean is 21 years and 9 years.

What is arithmetic?

In mathematics, it deals with numbers of operations according to the statements.

Let the present age of Tom and Jean is x and y.

Three years from now Tom will be twice as old as Jean.
x + 3 = 2 ( y + 3 )
x = 2y + 6 - 3
x = 2y + 3  - - - - - - - - -(1)

two years ago the sum of their ages was 26.
x - 2 + y - 2 = 26
x + y = 26 + 4
x + y = 30 - - - - - - -(2)

From equation 1 put x in equation 2.
2y + 3 + y = 30
3y = 30 - 3
3y = 27
y = 9

Put y in equation 2
x + 9 = 30
x = 30 - 9
x = 21

Thus the required present age of Tom and Jean is 21 years and 9 years.

A line passes through point (4,-3) and has a slope of 5/4. Write an equation in Ax + By = C

Answers

Answer:

The answer is

5x - 4y = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

To write an equation of a line using a point and slope use the formula

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where

m is the slope

(x1 , y1) is the point

So we have

Equation of the line using point (4 , -3) and slope 5/4 is

[tex]y + 3 = \frac{5}{4} (x - 4)[/tex]

Multiply through by 4

4y + 12 = 5(x - 4)

4y + 12 = 5x - 20

5x - 4y = 20 + 12

which one is irrational?

Answers

Answer: A, B, D are irrational

Basically everything but choice C

==========================================

Explanation:

sqrt is shorthand for square root

sqrt(4) = 2 = 2/1 showing that sqrt(4) is rational. We can write it as a fraction of two whole numbers, where 0 is not in the denominator.

-------

In contrast, we cannot write sqrt(2), sqrt(3), or sqrt(5) as a fraction of two whole numbers. Using your calculator, note how

sqrt(2) = 1.4142135623731

sqrt(3) = 1.73205080756888

sqrt(5) = 2.23606797749979

all of those decimal expansions go on forever without any pattern, which is a sign that those numbers are irrational. If they were rational, then a pattern would repeat at some point or the decimals would terminate at some point.

Answer:

a, b, d are irrational

the work in an office takes 180 hours to complete every work
each person in the office works for 35 hours a week
what is the smallest number of people needed to complete the work?​

Answers

Answer:

Minimum People required = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Total hours required to complete the work every week = 150 hrs.

Number of hours worked per week by one person = 32 hr

∴ Number of people required to complete the work per week = Total number of hrs to complete the work ÷ No of hrs work per person

∴ Number of people = 150 ÷ 32

∴ Number of people = 4.6875

This is the minimum number of people. But no of people cannot be a fraction.

Thus, rounding the number to next integer.

∴ Smallest number of people needed to complete the work = 5

A radioactive substance decays exponentially. A scientist begins with 350 milligrams of a radioactive substance. After 14 hours, 175 mg of the substance remains. How many milligrams will remain after 20 hours

Answers

Answer:

N(t)=N∗.5t/h where n(t) is amount of substance left, N = initial amount, t = current time, and h = half-life time.h = 24 hours t= 45 hours, N = 130mg

therefore, N(t)=130∗.545/24=35.44mg

Step-by-step explanation:

N(t)=N∗.5t/h where n(t) is amount of substance left, N = initial amount, t = current time, and h = half-life time.h = 24 hours t= 45 hours, N = 130mg

therefore, N(t)=130∗.545/24=35.44mg

Answer:

≈ 130 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

This is about the half-life of the substance.

There is a formula for this kind of calculations:

N(t)= N₀*(0.5)^(t/T), where

N(t) = substance left after time period of t,t = time passed,N₀ = initial amount of the substance,T = hal-life time of the given substance.

In our case, we have:

N₀ = 350 mg,t= 20 hours,T = 14 hours  as half of substance decays during this time period,

And the calculation:

N(20)= 350*(0.5)^(20/14)N(20) ≈ 130 mg

Answer: about 130 mg of substance remains after 20 hours

The grading system assigns quality points to letter grades as​ follows: A​4; B​3; C​2; D​1; F 0. Compute the grade point average​ (GPA) as a weighted mean and round the result with two decimal places. If the​ Dean's list requires a GPA of 3.00 or​ greater, did this student make the​ Dean's list

Answers

Answer:

grade point average​ (GPA) as a weighted mean = 3.14

Yes, student makes the Dean's list.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the data is not given I will explain the question with a relevant example:

For example

Data:

Students grades are:  A, C, B, A, D

The corresponding number of credit hours: 3, 3, 3, 4, 1

The grading system assigns quality points to letter grades as​:

A = 4

B = 3

C = 2

D = 1

F = 0

To find:

grade point average​ (GPA) as a weighted mean

If the​ Dean's list requires a GPA of 3.00 or​ greater, did this student make the​ Dean's list?

Solution:

Weighted Mean =   Σx[tex]_{i}[/tex] w[tex]_{i}[/tex] / Σw[tex]_{i}[/tex]

Here

Using the earned grades of A, C, B, A, D and corresponding quality points to these letter grades we get:

A = 4

C = 2

B = 3

A = 4

D = 1

So the values in x[tex]_{i}[/tex] are:

x

4

2

3

4

1

Now the number of credit hours are represented as weights w[tex]_{i}[/tex] :

w

3

3

3

4

1

In order to calculate weighted mean first multiply x[tex]_{i}[/tex] with w[tex]_{i}[/tex]

x[tex]_{i}[/tex] w[tex]_{i}[/tex]

4 * 3 = 12

2 * 3 = 6

3 * 3 = 9

4 * 4 = 16

1 * 1 = 1

The sum of x[tex]_{i}[/tex] w[tex]_{i}[/tex] is :

Σx[tex]_{i}[/tex] w[tex]_{i}[/tex] = 12 + 6 + 9 + 16 + 1 = 44

Σx[tex]_{i}[/tex] w[tex]_{i}[/tex]  =  44

Now compute the sum of w[tex]_{i}[/tex]

Σw[tex]_{i}[/tex] = 3 + 3 + 3 + 4 + 1 = 14

Σw[tex]_{i}[/tex] = 14

Putting the values in the weighted mean formula:

Weighted Mean =   Σx[tex]_{i}[/tex] w[tex]_{i}[/tex] / Σw[tex]_{i}[/tex]

                           =  44 / 14

                           = 3.1429

Weighted Mean =   Σx[tex]_{i}[/tex] w[tex]_{i}[/tex] / Σw[tex]_{i}[/tex] = 3.14

Since the​ Dean's list requires a GPA of 3.00 or​ greater and the grade point average​ (GPA) as a weighted mean of the student is 3.14 so the student makes the​ Dean's list because his/her GPA is higher than 3.00

Write an equation for a parabola with a focus of (1,-2) and a directrix of y=6

Answers

Answer:

y = - [tex]\frac{1}{16}[/tex](x - 1)² + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Any point (x, y) on the parabola is equidistant from the focus and the directrix.

Using the distance formula

[tex]\sqrt{(x-1)^2+(y+2)^2^}[/tex] = | y - 6 |

Square both sides

(x - 1)² + (y + 2)² = (y - 6)² ( expand the factors in y )

(x - 1)² + y² + 4y + 4 = y² - 12y + 36 ( subtract y² - 12y from both sides )

(x - 1)² + 16y + 4 = 36 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

(x - 1)² + 16y = 32 ← subtract (x - 1)² from both sides )

16y = - (x - 1)² + 32 ( divide all terms by 16 )

y = - [tex]\frac{1}{16}[/tex] (x - 1)² + 2

Ques 1: 7.85

Ques 2: both [tex]\sqrt{0.25}[/tex] and [tex]-\sqrt{16}[/tex] are rational.

Ques 3: 0.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Ques 1:

Solving the [tex]\sqrt{61.6}[/tex], we get 7.8485.

Rounding off to nearest hundredth, we see that next digit is 8, so we increase the previous digit by 1.

So, the answer to nearest hundredth is 7.85.

Ques 2:

[tex]\sqrt{0.25}[/tex] and [tex]-\sqrt{16}[/tex]to be checked  whether they are rational or irrational.

We know that [tex]\sqrt{16}[/tex] is equal to 4.

[tex]-\sqrt{16}[/tex] = -4 which is a rational value.

Let us solve [tex]\sqrt{0.25}[/tex] now.

[tex]\sqrt{0.25} = \sqrt{\dfrac{25}{100}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{5}{10}[/tex]

Which is a rational value.

So, both are rational.

Ques 3:

Simplify [tex]\sqrt{0.81}[/tex]

0.81 can be written as [tex]\frac{81}{100}[/tex] in rational form.

Now, taking the square root, we need to take the square root for both Numerator and Denominator and then we can divide to get the desired square root.

[tex]\sqrt{0.81} = \sqrt{\dfrac{81}{100}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{9}{10} = \bold{0.9}[/tex]

So, the answers are:

Ques 1: 7.85

Ques 2: both [tex]\sqrt{0.25}[/tex] and [tex]-\sqrt{16}[/tex] are rational.

Each serving of a pancake recipe calls for 1/4 cup of flour. How many servings can be made with 2 cups of flour?

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is 8 servings of pancakes.

Step-by-step explanation:

If each serving of pancakes calls for 1/4 cup of flour, to find how many servings can be made with 2 cups of flour, we should divide 2 cups by 1/4 cup.

To do this, we can first convert 1/4 to a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator.  

1/4 = 0.25

Next, we can go ahead with the division.

2 / 0.25 = 8

Therefore, 8 servings of pancakes can be made with 2 cups of flour.

if b is the midpoint of ac and if c is the midpoint of bd, then what percent of cd is ac

Answers

Answer:

ac is 200% of cd

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, we shall be making a visual representation.

Let’s take it one at a time.

Given;

b is the midpoint of ac

a b c

What this means is that a-b represents 50%, while bc represents another 50%

okay, we move on:

c is the midpoint of bd

b c d

What this means is that bc is 50%, while cd is another 50%.

So let’s combine the representations;

a 50% b 50% c 50% d

Now what does the question says again?

What percent of cd is ac?

From a to c, we can see two 50% which means 100%

while cd is just the regular 50%

So we can see that ac is actually twice cd

What we are saying here is , if cd is x, then ac is 2x

So we can restructure our question to mean, what percent of x is 2x?

That is simply 2x/x * 100 and that is 200%

Answer: ac is 200% of cd

The height of the cylinder is 16 centimeters, and the total height of the figure is 28 centimeters. The slant height of the cone is 13 centimeters. Which choice is the best approximation of the surface area of the figure? Use 3.14 to approximate pi.

Answers

Answer:

2,041 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

surface area = (2 × π × r × h) + ((π × r) × (r+ (√(c² + r²))))+(π × r²)

where,

cylinder  base radius (r) = 10  cm

height of cylinder (h) = 16 cm

total height = 28 cm

cone height (c) = total height - height of cylinder = 28 - 16 = 12cm

π = 3.14

surface area = (2 × 3.14 × 10 × 16) + ((3.14 × 10) × (10+ (√(12² + 10²))))+(3.14 × 10²)

surface area = 1004.8 + (31.4 * 25.6) + 314

surface area = 2122.64 cm²

therefore the approximate surface area given is 2,041 square centimeters

A small toy car costs $3. A large toy car costs 5 times as much as the small one. Aaron wants to buy one of each. Which equation can he use to find the cost (a) of the two cars?

Answers

Answer: He can use 3 x 5 = 15 and 15 + 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a small car is $3, and the large car is 5x the price of the small car, he can use the equation 3 x 5 = 15, because the small car is $3, and the large car is 5x the price. You can use 15 + 3 = 18, because the small car is $3, so you also have to add that.

Here to help!

The equation is x + 5x = 18 , where x is the cost of small toy car and the total cost of the two cars = $ 18

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 total cost of the two cars be A

Now , the equation will be

Let the cost of the small toy car be = x

The cost of small toy car = $ 3

The cost of the large car = 5 x cost of small toy car

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

The cost of the large car = 5 x 3

The cost of the large car = $ 15

So , the cost of two cars = x + 5x

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

The total cost of the two cars A = 15 + 3

The total cost of the two cars A = $ 18

Therefore , the value of A is $ 18

Hence , the equation is A = x + 5x

Complete question:

One researcher wishes to estimate the mean number of hours that high school students spend watching TV on a weekday. A margin of error of 0.28 hours is desired. Past studies suggest that a population standard deviation of 1.5 hours is reasonable. Estimate the minimum sample size required to estimate the population mean with the stated accuracy.

Answer:

111 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Margin of Error (E) = 0.28

Population standard deviation (sd) = 1.5

Recall:

Margin of Error(E) = Z * (sd/√n)

Taking a confidence interval of 95%

The Z value at a 95% confidence interval is 1.96

Plugging our values, we have :

Margin of Error(E) = Z * (sd/√n)

0.28 = 1.96 * (1.5/√n)

0.28 = 2.94 / √n

√n × 0.28 = 2.94

√n = 2.94 / 0.28

√n = 10.5

Square both sides to obtain n

n = 10.5^2

n = 110.25

intercept is the length from origin to intersection point of respective axis,

it intersects x axis at -7.5 and y is 0 so x intercept is (-7.5,0)

and similarly, y intercept is (0,5.5)

Answer:

(- 7.5, 0 ) and (0, 5.5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

The x- intercept is the value of x on the x- axis where the line crosses.

Here the line crosses the x- axis at - 7.5 , thus the coordinates of x- intercept

(- 7.5, 0 )

The y- intercept is the value of y on the y- axis where the line crosses.

Here the line crosses the y- axis at 5.5 thus the coordinates of the y- intercept

(0, 5.5 )

Rodrigo and his cousin have 8 bags of marbles. Some of the bags contain 5 white marbles. The rest of the bags contain 7 pink marbles. They have 48 marbles in all. How many bags of each color marble do the cousins have?

Answers

Answer:

The cousins have 4 bags of white marbles and 4 bags of pink marbles.

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the number of bags with white marbles and y is the number of bags with pink marbles, we can write the following system:

x + y = 8 -- Equation 1

5x + 7y = 48 -- Equation 2

5x + 5y = 40 -- Equation 3 (Multiply Equation 1 by 5)

2y = 8 -- (Subtract Equation 3 from 2)

y = 4 -- (Divide both sides by 2)

x + 4 = 8 -- (Substitute y = 4 into Equation 1)

x = 4 -- (Subtract 4 from both sides)
