The difference between two numbers is 31. Four times the smaller is equal to eight more than the larger. What are the numbers?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

13 and 44

Step-by-step explanation:

let x and y be the 2 numbers with y < x , then

x - y = 31 ( add y to both sides )

x = y + 31 ( subtract 31 from both sides )

x - 31 = y → (1)

4y = x + 8 → (2)

substitute y = x - 31 into (2)

4(x - 31) = x + 8

4x - 124 = x + 8 ( subtract x from both sides )

3x - 124 = 8 ( add 124 to both sides )

3x = 132 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 44

substitute x = 44 into (1)

44 - 31  = y , then

y = 13

the 2 numbers are 13 and 44

John has four times as much money as his sister Debbie who has half as much as their friend David. Together the three children have $105. a) How much money does Debbie have? Answer b) How much money does John have? Answer.. c) How much money does David have? Answer.. (1)​

Answers

Let's say that the money that each person has is equal to a letter:

A=Debbie, B=John, C=David.

Now we can write some equations.

"John has four times as much money as his sister Debbie who has half as much as their friend David."

B = 4A

A = 0.5C

"Together the three children have $105"

A+B+C=105

This is now a system of equations problem. Substitute to solve.

A + (4A) + C = 105

(0.5C) + 4(0.5C) + C = 105

3.5C = 105, so C = 30.

Plug this into the previous equations to get A=15 and B=60

So Debbie has $15, John has $60, and David has $30

To determine how American college students feel about commuting, 100 students at a private

how far they commute each day (in minutes) to campus.

a. Is this an observational study or experiment?

b. What is the sample?

c. What is the target population?

d. What is the sampling method? (Simple random, stratified, convenient, …)

e. Is the data collected qualitative or quantitative?

f. Why is it unlikely that the results of this study will be valid?

Answers

The nature of the research is called Observational Study while the target Population is American Students.

How to find the sampling method?

1) In study, we survey members of a sample without trying to affect them while in experiment, we assign people or things to groups and apply some treatment to one of the groups, while the other group does not receive treatment. Thus, this is an observational study.

2) The sample is the 100 students made up of 50 boys and 50 girls.

3) The target Population are American College Students

4) The sampling method is; Simple random Sampling

5) The data is qualitative because it deals with description of feelings rather than dealing with numbers and figures.

6) It is unlikely that the results would be invalid because of sampling bias as it was only done in a private university.

The areas of two similar triangles are 9 cm² and 49 cm². One of the sides of the first
triangle is 2 cm. What is the length of the corresponding side of the other triangle?

Answers

Answer:

I believe it should be rounded to 11, if not decimal would be 10.88

Step-by-step explanation:

49 divided by 9 equals 5.44 which is the amount times the 49cm^2 triangle is compared to the 9cm^2. So then the side is 2cm, multiply by the amount times bigger the other triangle is which would be 10.88. Hopefully I'm not wrong:)

Answer:

The answer is 4 and 2/3 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the square root of 49 and 9 and you'll get 7 and 3 since the scale factor is the large area over the small area.

The large area would be √49 cm²

The small area would be √9 cm²

Hi Student!

Let's go through each of the options that were provided to the question stating what part of the circle was highlighted in red and talk about what they mean.

First off, radius is the distance from the outer line to the middle which perfectly incapsulates what the red line is.  Therefore, the correct answer would be option A, Radius.

However, if you want to understand the rest of the definitions you can follow with the bullets provided.

Chord - This isn't a math termDiameter - This term is actually quite similar to that of radius but instead this is the length from one side of the outer line to the other side of the outer line.  This would cause the diameter to be twice the length of the radius and so if we want to determine the radius using the diameter we can just divide it by 2Center - This just description the dot in the middle of the circle

Hi Student!

Looking at the problem statement, we can see that they are asking for us to determine whether x = 2 is a solution of the expression provided or not.  The first step that we take is plugging in all the values which means that we take 2 and plug it into all of the x's that we have in the expression that we provided.  Then we simplify that expression down on both sides.  If the expression in the end results to true then x = 2 is a solution of the expression but if it defaults to false than x = 2 isn't a solution.

Plug in the values

[tex]7x + 9 \ge 7 * 3[/tex][tex]7(2) + 9 \ge 7 * 3[/tex]

Simplify both sides

[tex]14 + 9 \ge 7 * 3[/tex][tex]23 \ge 21[/tex]

The final expression states that 23 is greater than or equal to 21 which is true. Therefore, x = 2 is a solution of the expression that was provided in the problem statement.

Maria has 14 fewer apps on her phone than Orlando. If the total number of apps on both phones is 34, how many apps are on each phone?

Answers

Orlando has 24 apps and Maria has 10.

Setting up and equation from the word problem, Orlando has 24 apps on his phone, and Maria has 10 apps on her phone.

How many apps are on each phone?

Let's assume that Orlando has x number of apps on his phone. According to the given information, Maria has 14 fewer apps, so the number of apps on Maria's phone would be (x - 14).

The total number of apps on both phones is 34, so we can set up the equation:

x + (x - 14) = 34

Simplifying the equation:

2x - 14 = 34

Adding 14 to both sides:

2x = 48

The graph below shows how many cookies can be made depending on how many cups of flour are used. How many cookies will be made if 18 cups of flour are used?

192 cookies
96 cookies

Answers

Answer:

288

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the 18 on the x axis. Go up to the line. Then go left and you will be at 288 on the y axis.

You can also divide a known coordinate to find the rate of change, since the graph is proportional. Use (6, 96). y/x = rate of change

96/6 = 16.

Now multiply 18 and 16 to get the number of cookies.

18 x 16 = 288
