Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C. 7

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] In\: \triangle ABC\\

\overline{PQ} \parallel \overline {BC}.. (given) \\[/tex]

Therefore, by Basic Proportionality theorem:

[tex] \frac{AP}{PB} = \frac{AQ}{QC} \\\\

\therefore \frac{x}{x+7} = \frac{x-3}{x+1} \\\\

\therefore \: \frac{x - x - 7}{x + 7} = \frac{x - 3 - x - 1}{x + 1} \\ (by \: dividendo) \\ \\ \frac{ - 7}{x + 7} = \frac{ - 4}{x + 1} \\ \\ \frac{7}{x + 7} = \frac{4}{x + 1} \\ \\ 7x + 7 = 4x + 28 \\ \\ 7x - 4x = 28 - 7 \\ \\ 3x = 21 \\ \\ x = \frac{21}{3} \\ \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{ x = 7}}[/tex]

75% of the items collected at the food drive were cans of soup. If 90 cans of soup were
collected, how many items were collected in all?

Answers

Answer:

67.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

If 90 cans of soup were collected and it was 75%, take 90/3=30. If 25% of all cans is 30 then when you multiply by 4, to get 100%, you have 120 cans. Also 120/75%= 90

The manager of an art supply store decides to hold a Buy 2, Get 1 Free sale on tubes of watercolor paints. The sale is held for one week and a total of 280 tubes of paint were sold (not including the ones given away for free). If each tube of watercolor paint cost the store $7.25, how much money did the store lose by giving away the free tubes of paint?

Answers

Answer:

$1015

Step-by-step explanation:

280 divided by 2 140 times $7.25 is $1015

The amount of money that the store lose by giving away the free tubes of paint is $1015.

Since the manager held Buy 2, Get 1 Free sale on tubes of watercolor paints, then when 280 tubes of paints are sold, 1/2 × 280 = 140 tubes of paints will be given out for free.

Therefore, the amount lost will be calculated by multiplying the number of paints given out by the price. This will be:

= 140 × $7.25

= $1015

Therefore, the amount of money that the store lose by giving away the free tubes of paint is $1015.

joyce traveled at an average speed of 60 miles per hour for 4.5 hours and then traveled at an average speed of 35 miles per hour for 1.5 hours. What was the total distance in miles that joyce traveled during this time ?

Answers

Answer:

322 1/2 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall how s = d/t ; speed = distance/time.

To effectively solve for distance traveled, rearrange the formula so that distance is on the left-hand side by multiplying speed, and time.

speed × time = distance/time × time

speed × time = distance

distance = speed × time ; d = st.

Now to find the total distance traveled, individually multiply the rate of speed with the time. Time will cancel, and we will get the total mileage.

Given an average speed of 60 mph at a certain time for 4.5 hours, and another average speed of 35 mph at another time of 1.5. Calculate the distance individually, and then add both distances together. Distance 1 = 60 mph × 4.5 h = 60 miles / h × 4.5h = 60 miles × 4.5 = 270 miles.

Distance 2 = 35mph × 1.5h = 35 miles / h × 1.5h = 35 miles × 1.5 = 52 1/2 miles.

Distance 1 + Distance 2 = Total distance.

270 miles + 52 1/2 miles = 322 1/2 miles.

Don bought 3/4 of a pound of jelly beans and ate 5/8 of the jelly beans before he got home. How much candy was left?

Answers

Answer:

 CAN YOU MARK ME BRAINLIEST ??

The answer is 1/8 candy left!!

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4=6/8 because x2.

6/8-5/8= 1/8

Answer:

1/8 of the jelly beans

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to create a common denominator between the two fractions. Since both 4 and 8 go into 8, that will be the common denominator. To get 4 to 8, you have to multiply by 2, so to even it out you multiply the numerator by 2(3x2) which equals 6. Now the first fraction is 6/8 and the second is still 5/8. If he ate 5/8 of 6/8 jelly beans, you need to subtract. 6/8 minus 5/8 is 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three consecutive integers be;

    x , x + 1 and x + 2:

The sum of squares of the two smaller numbers:

  The two smaller numbers are x and x+ 1

Sum of their squares:

           x² + (x+1)²;

        x² + x² + 2x + 1 = 2x² + 2x + 1

It is 45 more than the square of the larger number:

    Larger number = x + 2

        (x+2)² = x² + 4x + 4

 45 more;

        x² + 4x + 4 + 45  = x² + 4x + 49

Both are equal:

 2x² + 2x + 1 =  x² + 4x + 49  

  2x² - x² + 2x - 4x + 1 - 49 = 0

      x² - 2x - 48 = 0

      x² - 6x + 8x - 48 = 0

      x(x - 6) + 8(x - 6) = 0

      (x + 8)(x-6) = 0

      x + 8 = 0 or x - 6 = 0

      x  = -8 or x = 6

We choose x = 6 because it makes the solution true as a positive integer

  Sum of the three numbers:

     x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 6 + 6 + 1 + 6 + 2 = 21

Answers

Answer:

(x^2 plus 2y")

--------------------

Doing this problem correctly requires the application of "order of operations" rules.  "x^2 plus 2y" actually means "(x^2 plus 2y"), and so your

x^2 plus 2y divided by 2x

comes out to:

(x^2 plus 2y")

I think you mean to say "hypotenuse". If so, then use the pythagorean theorem to get the following

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

16^2 + 20^2 = c^2

256 + 400 = c^2

656 = c^2

c^2 = 656

c = sqrt(656)

c = sqrt(16*41)

c = sqrt(16)*sqrt(41)

c = 4*sqrt(41)

The hypotenuse is exactly 4*sqrt(41) units long

When it is about 68°F, crickets chirp 124 times a minute. When it is about 80°F, they chirp 172 times a minute. WRITE an equation in POINT SLOPE FORM for the line that models this situation.

Answers

Answer:

4x+148

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the temperature be x and time taken by cricket to chirp be y

if when it is about 68°F, crickets chirp 124 times a minute, this means;

at x1 = 68, y1 = 124

If it is about 80°F, they chirp 172 times a minute, then;

at x2 = 80, y2 = 172

The standard form of equation in point slope form is expressed as;

y-y0 = m(x-x0)

m is the slope

(x0, y0) is a point on the line.

First we need to get the slope.

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = 172-124/80-68

m = 48/12

m =4

Substitute m = 4 and any point into the expression above. Using the coordinate (68, 124)

get the intercept c

124 = 4(68) + c

c = 272-124

c = 148

The required equation is expressed as y = 4x+148 OR y - 124 = 4(x-68)

Answers

Answer:

The x-intercept is 4,0. The y-intercept is 0,2.

Step-by-step explanation:

when your finding an intercept you make the other intercept 0. This means the equation to find the x-intercept would look like 5x = 20. This is because they = 0, which means 10 x 0 is 0. Then you use the inverse operation so since it's 5 * x, it will be 20 ÷ 5 which is 4. Do the same thing with the y-intercept. Instead of changing the y to a 0, change the x. Using the inverse operation you get 2.

Have a nice day!

X-intercept = (4,0)
Y-intercept = (0,2)

To find the x intercept make y = 0
5x + 10(0) = 20
5x = 20
x = 4
So (4,0)

To find the y intercept make x = 0
5(0) + 10y = 20
10y = 20
y = 2
So (0,2)
