you have some marbles. when you make a shape of an equilateral triangle, you either have 5 extra, or you need 10 more to complete the shape, how many marbles do you have? how long is one side of your triangle?
I'm giving brainliest to correct answer!

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

110 marbles

side 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw triangles using marbles as the sides.

If the side is 2 marbles long, the triangle uses 3 marbles. 1 + 2 = 3

If the side is 3 marbles long, the triangle uses 6 marbles. 1 + 2 + 3 = 6

If the side is 4 marbles long, the triangle uses 10 marbles. 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 10

If the side is n marbles long, the triangle uses n(n + 1)/2 marbles.

These numbers are called triangular numbers.

We are looking for the side, n.

n(n + 1)/2 + 5 = (n + 1)(n + 2)/2 - 10

n^2 + n + 10 = n^2 + 3n + 2 - 20

n + 10 = 3n - 18

-n = -14

n = 14

For n = 14

n(n + 1)/2 =

= 14(15)/2

= 105

For n = 15

n(n + 1)/2 =

= 15(16)/2

= 120

105 + 5 = 120 - 10

You have 110 marbles. If you had 5 fewer, 105, you'd have a triangle with sides 14. If you had 10 more, 120, you'd have a triangle with sides 15. Since you have 110, you have 5 too many for side 14 and 10 too few for side 15.

The sides of the triangle is 14.

Write the equation of the graph shown below in factored form?

Answers

Answer:

1st option

Step-by-step explanation:

If x = a is a zero of f(x) then (x - a) is a factor of f(x)

Here the zeros ( where the graph crosses the x- axis ) are

x = - 2, x = 1, x = 3 , then the corresponding factors are

(x - (- 2) ), (x - 1), (x - 3) , that is (x + 2), (x - 1), (x - 3)

f(x) is then the product of the factors , that is

f(x) = (x + 2)(x - 1)(x - 3)

What is the smallest 3-digit palindrome that is divisible by both 3 and 4?

Answers

Answer:

252

Step-by-step explanation:

To be divisible by 3, it's digits have to add to a number that is a multiple of 3.

To be divisible by 4 its last 2 digits have to be divisible by 3.

So let's start with 1x1 which won't work because 1x1 is odd. so let's go to 2x2 and see what happens.

212 that's divisible by 4 but not 3

222 divisible by 3 but not 4

232 divisible by 4 but not 3

242 not divisible by either one.

For the transition matrix P = [0.8 2 0.2 2, 0.3 0.7]​, solve the equation SP = S to find the stationary matrix S and the limiting matrix Upper P overbar.

Answers

Answer:

Stationary matrix S = [ 0.6   0.4 ]

limiting matrix  P = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.6&0.4\\0.6&0.4\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Transition matrix

[tex]p = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.8&0.2\\0.3&0.7\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

solving the equation SP = S ( using Markova chain with 2 states )

stationary matrix,  S = [ a , 1 - a ]

given that  SP  = S

[ a , 1 - a ] * [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.8&0.2\\0.3&0.7\\\end{array}\right][/tex] =  [ a , 1 - a ]

= a*(0.8) + ( 1 - a ) ( 0.3 ) = a

∴ a = 0.6

hence;  stationary matrix S = [ 0.6   0.4 ]

             limiting matrix  P = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.6&0.4\\0.6&0.4\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

SAT/ACT What is the solution of 1,200 – 5(3x + 30) = 600? A 30 B 50 C 150 D 200 E 250​

Answers

The answer you are looking for is letter A, x=30.

Solution/Explanation:

First, write out the equation,

1200-5(3x+30)=600

Next, using the Distributive Property,

1200-15x-150=600

Simplify the left side of the equation just a little bit more,

1050-15x=600

Reverse order of terms on the left side, to make it a little bit easier to solve,

-15x+1050=600

Now, subtract 1050 from both sides,

-15x+1050-1050=600-1050

Now, simplify this part of the equation,

-15x=-450

Finally, divide both sides by -15,

So, therefore, the final answer is x=30.

Given 12 consecutive integers, how many ways can three of these integers be selected to give a sum which divides by 4.

Disclaimer: A lot of points to be given, Full explanation required. Not only answer. Remember the sum of the number must be divisible by 4. I think modular arithmetic is the way to solve it, but who knows???

Answers

Answer:

55 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Out of 12 consecutive integers:

3 - divide by 4, so the remainder is 0 3- give remainder of 1 3- give remainder of 2 3 - give remainder of 3

Sum of 3 integers will be divisible by 4 if the remainders are:

0 - 0 - 0 ⇒ 1 combination 0 - 1 - 3 ⇒ 3*3 = 9 combinations 0 - 3 - 1 ⇒ 3*3 = 9  combinations 1 - 1 - 2  ⇒ 2*3 = 6  combinations 1 - 2 - 1  ⇒ 2*3 = 6  combinations 2 - 1 - 1 ⇒ 2*3 = 6 combinations 3 - 0 - 1 ⇒ 3*3 = 9 combinations 3 - 1 - 0 ⇒ 3*3 = 9 combinations

So total number of combinations is:

1 + 9*4 + 6*3 = 55

mean marks of 100 students was 40.. It was discovered that 53 was misread as 83. Find the actual mean.​

Answers

Problem:-

mean marks of 100 students was 40.. It was discovered that 53 was misread as 83. Find the actual mean.

Solution:-

Total mean score = 40

[tex]mean \: = \frac{sum \: of \: observation}{number \: of \: observations} [/tex]

sum of observations

= mean × no of observations

= 40×100

= 4000

After the replacement, sum of new observation will be

=4000-83+53

= 3970

mean of new the observation will be

[tex] = \frac{3970}{100} [/tex]

[tex] = 39.7[/tex]

[Hence, the actual mean is 39.7]

Answers

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

A solution for a system of equations entails that all variables are the same. In this case, it means that both x and y must be the same.

Looking at the graph, there is no spot where y=3x+3 and 3x-y=2 intersect

To confirm, we can look at the equations. If we make them both equal to y, we can set them equal to each other.

For y=3x+3, this is already set to y. For 3x-y=2, we can add y to both sides and subtract 2 from both sides to get

3x-2=y

3x+3=y

Since the x and y values must be the same, we can say that

3x-2=3x+3

subtract 3x from both sides

-2 = 3

Since -2 is not equal to 3, we can confirm that there are no solutions to this system of equations

The system of linear equations x – y + 2 = 0 and 2x + y -14 = 0​

Answers

Answer:

(4, 6 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equations

x - y + 2 = 0 ( subtract - y + 2 from both sides )

x = y - 2 → (1)

2x + y - 14 = 0 → (2)

Substitute x = y - 2 into (2)

2(y - 2) + y - 14 = 0 ← distribute and simplify left side

2y - 4 + y - 14 = 0

3y - 18 = 0 ( add 18 to both sides )

3y = 18 ( divide both sides by 3 )

y = 6

Substitute y = 6 into (1) for corresponding value of x

x = 6 - 2 = 4

solution is (4, 6 )
