lvan earned $8 each time he walks his neighbor's dog. he already walked the dog 5 times.
How many more times does her need to walk the dog to earn enough money to buy a game that costs $88
__? more times

Answers

Answer: 6 more times


Explanation:
Start by finding out that 8x5=40 since he already walked the dog 5x for 8$each

Then you subtract that 40 from 88 and end up with 48

Then you divide that 48 by 8 since that’s the amount of money he makes per walk and end up with

Answers

Answer:  10

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

Explanation:

The two smaller triangles are proportional, which lets us set up this equation

5/n = n/15

Cross multiplying leads to

5*15 = n*n

n^2 = 75

----------

Apply the pythagorean theorem on the smaller triangle on top, or on the right.

a^2+b^2 = c^2

5^2+n^2 = m^2

25+75 = m^2

100 = m^2

m^2 = 100

m = sqrt(100)

m = 10

Answer:

[tex]-73[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: My explanation is based of the order-of-operations

First, using the order-of-operations, we evaluate the expressions in parentheses. Fully simplifying [tex](5-7)^2[/tex] gives us: [tex](5-7)^2 = -2^2 = 4[/tex].

Next, we do [tex]6\cdot2[/tex] giving us [tex]12[/tex]. So far, our expression is simplified to [tex]\frac{84}{12} + 4 - 72 - 12[/tex].

We also know that [tex]\frac{84}{12}[/tex] is just [tex]7[/tex] so we can replace that value in the expression leaving us with: [tex]7+4-72-12[/tex]. Now, we can solve it in simple steps!

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x = - 8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First,Step write the given equation.

[tex] \frac{x}{2} + 7 = 3[/tex]

In Algebra, we learn how to solve for a missing term called a variable. We must use inverse operations to undo terms to isolate our variable. Inverse operations means that we do the opposite of the given.

Opposite of Addition is Subtraction, vice versa.Opposite of Multipication is Division, vice versa.

For example, say we have a equation

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

We would subtract 2 from both sides. E.g( remember the golden rule of algebra). What we do to one side, we do the other. This applies when we solving for a variable.

This means that

[tex]x = 1[/tex]

And if we substitute 1 in for x, it is indeed true.

[tex]1 + 2 = 3 = 3[/tex]

Now, back to the question.

[tex] \frac{x}{2} + 7 = 3[/tex]

First, we subtract 7 from both sides to get rid of the 7 on the left side. Also remeber to undo terms that aren't included in the variable when solving these problems.

So now we got

[tex] \frac{x}{2} = - 4[/tex]

Then we multiply 2 by both sides since that the opposite of division.

[tex] \frac{x}{2} \times 2 = x = -4 \times 2 = - 8[/tex]

So this means that

[tex]x = - 8[/tex]

If we plug this in, this is true.

[tex] \frac{ - 8}{2} + 7 = 3[/tex]

Marla noticed that her friend Ron had three times as many pieces of candy as she did. She told him, "If you give me seven pieces of your candy, we'll have exactly the same number of pieces." Ron responded, "I didn't know that until you mentioned it. But I'll make you a deal: If you can show me how to solve this puzzle using algebra, I'll give you the seven pieces. "One minute later, Ron was shocked to see that Marla had solved it perfectly. Can you do the same?

Answers

Answer:

This question seems to be asking for the work, so I put it below.

Anyhow, Marla had 3.5 candies, and Ron had 10.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 3x - 7  (lets set this as "a")   { a = 3x - 7}

x + 7 = 3x -7 + 7

x + 7 = 3x

( x + 7 ) / 3 = 3/3x

( x + 7 ) / 3 = x     =    *(same as "a") {a}

( x + 7 ) / 3 = 3x - 7

( x + 7 ) / 3 * 3 = ( 3x - 7 ) * 3

x + 7 = 9x - 21

x - x + 7 = 9x - x - 21

7 = 8x - 21

7 + 21 = 8x - 21 + 21

28 = 8x

28 / 8 = 8/8x

3.5 = x

We can plug this back into the original equation and find that it is correct because:

x = 3x - 7

x = 3.5  =====

3.5 = 3( 3.5 ) - 7

3.5 = 10.5 - 7

3.5 = 3.5

Answer:

Marla has 7 and Ron has 21

Step-by-step explanation:

lets take

no. of candies Marla has as "x"

and no. of  candies Ron has will be "3x"

Marla says if Ron gives her seven candies, they will have the same no. of candies

so your equation will be -

x + 7 = 3x - 7 (as Marla gets the candy, Ron loses the candy)

3x - x = 7 + 7

2x = 14

∴x = 7

and 3x = 3 x 7 = 21

Answers

Answer:

In recreational mathematics, a square array of numbers, usually positive integers, is called a magic square if the sums of the numbers in each row, each column, and both main diagonals are the same.[1][2] The order of the magic square is the number of integers along one side (n), and the constant sum is called the magic constant. If the array includes just the positive integers {\displaystyle 1,2,...,n^{2}}{\displaystyle 1,2,...,n^{2}}, the magic square is said to be normal. Some authors take magic square to mean normal magic square.[3]

The smallest (and unique up to rotation and reflection) non-trivial case of a magic square, order 3

Magic squares that include repeated entries do not fall under this definition and are referred to as trivial. Some well-known examples, including the Sagrada Família magic square and the Parker square are trivial in this sense. When all the rows and columns but not both diagonals sum to the magic constant we have semimagic squares (sometimes called orthomagic squares).

The mathematical study of magic squares typically deals with its construction, classification, and enumeration. Although completely general methods for producing all the magic squares of all orders do not exist, historically three general techniques have been discovered: by bordering method, by making composite magic squares, and by adding two preliminary squares. There are also more specific strategies like the continuous enumeration method that reproduces specific patterns. Magic squares are generally classified according to their order n as: odd if n is odd, evenly even (also referred to as "doubly even") if n is a multiple of 4, oddly even (also known as "singly even") if n is any other even number. This classification is based on different techniques required to construct odd, evenly even, and oddly even squares. Beside this, depending on further properties, magic squares are also classified as associative magic squares, pandiagonal magic squares, most-perfect magic squares, and so on. More challengingly, attempts have also been made to classify all the magic squares of a given order as transformations of a smaller set of squares. Except for n ≤ 5, the enumeration of higher order magic squares is still an open challenge. The enumeration of most-perfect magic squares of any order was only accomplished in the late 20th century.

Magic squares have a long history, dating back to at least 190 BCE in China. At various times they have acquired occult or mythical significance, and have appeared as symbols in works of art. In modern times they have been generalized a number of ways, including using extra or different constraints, multiplying instead of adding cells, using alternate shapes or more than two dimensions, and replacing numbers with shapes and addition with geometric operations.

If the average number of years of experience for all the senior and junior members is 7 years, then what is the ratio of senior members to junior members at the company

Answers

Answer:

The ratio of senior members to junior members at the company is 1 : 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given average number of years of experience of the senior employees, x = 16 years

The given average number of years of experience of the junior employees, y = 7 years

Let a represent the number of senior employees in the company, and let b represent the number of junior workers in the company, we have;

(16·a + 4·b)/(a + b) = 7

∴ (16·a + 4·b) = (a + b) × 7 = 7·a + 7·b

16·a - 7·a = 7·b - 4·b

9·a = 3·b

a/b = 3/9 = 1/3

a/b = 1/3

The above equation, expressed as a ratio is, a : b = 1 : 3

Therefore;

The ratio of senior members to junior members at the company, a : b = 1 : 3.
