Anna has more money than Betty. If Anna gave Betty $200, then they would have the same amount of money. While if Betty gave Anna $220, Anna would then have twice as much as Betty. Calculate the amount of money each girl has using the substitution method

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Anna has $1460

Betty has $1060                                                      

Step-by-step explanation:

let Anna's money be x

and Betty's money be y

If Anna gave Betty $200, then they would have the same amount of money

Anna's money will reduce by 200

x=x-200

Betty's money will increase by 200

y= y+200

if they have the same amount of money, the difference will be zero

x-200=y+200

x-200-y-200=0

x-y-400=0

x-y=400--------------1

this means that Anna has $400 more than Betty

if Betty gave Anna $220, Anna would then have twice as much as Betty.

Betty's money will reduce by 220

y=y-220

Anna's money will increase by 220

x=x+220

Anna's money will double that of Betty's

x+220=2(y-220)

x+220= 2y-440

x=2y-440-220

x=2y-660--------------------2

put x= 2y-660 in eqn 1

(2y-660)-y=400-------------------------1

2y-y=400+660

y= 1060

so Betty has $1060

put y= 1060 in eqn 1

x-y=400

x-1060=400

x=400+1060

x=1460

so Anna has $1460

Because of PEMDAS, Simplify 15x72 first. That will bring you to 1080. After that we add 6 to the 1080 because you always do Multiplication first. Your answer would be 1086 if you followed PEMDAS correctly.

A museum requires a minimum number of chaperones proportional to the number of students on a field trip. The museum requires a minimum of 333 chaperones for a field trip with 242424 students.

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question:

A museum requires a minimum number of chaperones proportional to the number of students on a field trip. The museum requires a minimum of 3 chaperones for a field trip with 24 students. Which of the following could be combinations of values for the students and the minimum number of chaperones the museum requires? Choose 2 answers.

A. Students: 72

Minimum of chaperones: 9

B. Students: 16

Minimum of chaperones: 2

C. Students: 60

Minimum of chaperones: 6

D. Students: 45

Minimum of chaperones: 5

E. Students: 40

Minimum of chaperones: 8

Since the museum requires a minimum of 3 chaperones for a field trip with 24 students. This means that there will be 24/3 = 8 students per chaperone.

We then divide the number of students given in the question by the number of chaperone to know our answers. This. Will be:

Students: 72

Minimum of chaperones: 9

This will be: 72/9 = 8

Therefore, this is correct.

B. Students: 16

Minimum of chaperones: 2

This will be: 16/2 = 8

This is correct

C. Students: 60

Minimum of chaperones: 6

This will be: = 60/6 = 10.

Therefore, this is wrong

D. Students: 45

Minimum of chaperones: 5

This will be 45/5 = 9

Therefore, this is wrong.

E. Students: 40

Minimum of chaperones: 8

This will be: 40/5 = 8.

Therefore, this is wrong.

Therefore, options A and B are correct.

Question : If lines BG and CF are parallel, then OLF = OMG. Is this statement correct? Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Yes this statement is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

just mental math

The statement given that ∠OLF = ∠OMG is found to be; Correct from theorem of corresponding angles.

We are told that;

BC is parallel to CF

Now, we are told that;

∠OLF = ∠OMG

We can see that line DH is a transverse line that crosses the two parallel lines given as BG and CF

Now, according to theorem of corresponding angles, the angle's that are formed when two parallel lines are crossed by a transverse line are said to be equal because they correspond to one another.

In conclusion, it is true from corresponding angles that ∠OLF and ∠OMG are equal.

Emma throws an object upward from a hill that is 64 feet high. The object has an initial velocity of 48 feet per second. The function y = -16x2 + 48x + 64 represents the height of the object, y, in terms of the time elapsed after the object is thrown, x.

Answers

Answer:

100feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of the object modelled by the equation

y = -16x^2 + 48x + 64

We can find the maximum height reached by the object since we are not told what to find.

The velocity of the object at its max height is zero.

dy/x = 0

dy/dx = -32x + 48

0 = -32x + 48

32x = 48

x = 48/32

x = 1.5secs

get the max height by substituting x = 1.5 into the given equation:

y = -16x^2 + 48x + 64

y = -16(1.5)^2 + 48(1.5)+ 64

y =  -36+72+64

y = 100 feet

Hence the maximum height reached by the object is 100feet
