how to solve this equation?

The cost of 1 mall candle = $1 while the cost of 1 large candle = $5

Let the cost of 1 mall candle = x

Let us assume that the cost of 1 large candle = y

So, in case 1,

As I can buy,

4 mall candles and 2 large candles for $14

So, framing the equation,

We can rewrite it as:

4x+2y = 14-------(1)

As my friend can buy 5 mall candles and 3 large candles for $20

Now again framing the equation,

We can write it as:

5x+3y=20 -------(2)

From (1) and (2), for determining the value of x, we will first make the coefficient of y equal in both cases.

So, multiply the first equation by 3 and the second by 2

We will get,

12x+6y=42 -----(3)

10x+6y=40------(4)

Now subtracting (4) from (3)

We will get,

2x=2

=>x=1

So, for determining the value of y,

We will put the value of x in (1)

So,  4x+2y = 14-------(1)

=> 4+2y=14

=>2y=10

=>y=5

The cost of a small candle is equal to $1, and the cost of each large candle is $5..

When I buy the candles,

Cost of 4 small and 2 large candles = $14

but when my friend purchse the candles , cost of 5 small and 3 large candles= $ 20 .

Let the cost of each small candle and each large candle be $x and $y respectively.

From first condition, when I can buy the candles,

Cost of 4 smalll candles = $4x

Cost of 2 large candles= $2y

=> $4x + $2y = $14

Reduce the equation, 2x + y = 7 ---(1) ( since, divided by 2)

In case Second, when my friend buy the candles,

Cost of 5 small candles= $5x

Cost og 3 large candles= $ 3x

=> $5x + $3y = $20 or 5x + 3y = 20 --(2)

Now, equation (1) and (2) made a system of linear equations. Linear equations are in two variables x and y . To solve the system of linear equation, we can use Elimination Method,

To make the same cofficient of y variable in both equtions, multiply the equation (1) by 3

=> 3(2x + y ) = 3× 7

=> 6x + 3y = 21 --(3)

Subtracts the eqution (2) from (3) to eliminate y,

=> 6x + 3y - ( 5x + 3y) = 21 - 20

=> 6x + 3y - 5x - 3y = 21 - 20

=> x = 1

from (1) , 2x + y = 7 => 2×1 + y = 7

=> y = 5

Hence, the cost of one small candle and one large candle are $1 and $5.

The number of student tickets sold are 109.

As per the given data a high school drama department sold 238 tickets for their performance.

An adult ticket cost $6. 75.

A student ticket cost $3. 50.

Let the number of adult tickets be x.

Let the number of student tickets be y.

Then we know that the total number of tickets is 238.

x + y = 238 ... (1)

If we multiply the cost of a ticket by the number of tickets we can also get the total.

6. 75x + 3. 50y = 1252. 25(....... (2))

Now we have two equations and two unknowns and we can find the value for these unknowns

Lets use substitution method.

x + y = 238

x = 238 - y

Substitute x = 238 - y in equation (2)

6. 75(238 - y) + 3. 50y = 1252. 25

1606.5 - 6.75y + 3. 50y = 1252. 25

- 3.25y = - 354.25

3.25y =  354.25

y = 109

Substitute y = 109 in equation (1)

x + 109 = 238

x = 129.

Therefore number of student tickets are 109.

27p+6r, is an expression which is equivalent to 3 (9p+2r).

Distance of the race is 500 feet.

Given that tortoise moves at 50 feets per hour and hare moves at 250 feets per hour.

So speed of tortoise = 50 feets per hour.

Speed of hare = 250 feets per hour.

Let hare takes T hours to complete the race

Than tortoise will take (T + 8) hours to complete the race.

Total distance traveled by hare = speed * time = 250T

Total distance traveled by tortoise = speed * time = 50(T + 8)

Total distance traveled by both is same.

250T = 50(T + 8)

250T = 50T + 400

250T – 50T = 400

200T = 400

T = 2 hours

So, total distance of the race = 250T = 250 * 2 = 500 feet.

Therefore, total distance of the race is 500 feet.

Answer:

The gravitational force acting on the 6-kg bowling ball at the top of the 120-meter tall building is approximately 58.64 Newtons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

55°

Step-by-step explanation:

For the line including the 110°, the angle of the supplementary angle is 70° which is the 'non-equivalent' length of the isosceles triangle. Then do:

(180°-70°)/2 = 55° to get x

Answer:

Supplementary angles, x = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles: straight line means both angles add up to 180, this if the outside angle is 110 then the inside angle is 180° - 110° = 70°

Since it is an isosceles triangle, it means both angles are equal to x therefore

[tex]180 - 70 = 2x\\110 = 2x\\\frac{110}{2} = x\\x = 55[/tex]

In step 2. the addition property of equality was applied.

In step 2. the subtraction property of equality was applied.

We have solved the equation x/4 + 5 = 23.

In step second we subtract 5 on both side, this is the property of equality of addition.

In step 3 the expression is x/4 = 23

In step 4 we multiply 4 on both side, again using the property of equality of subtraction.

Now the value of x is 72.

Hence, using the property of equality in step 2 and 4 we solve the equation.

Correct option is D, the fraction of area of square region ABCD is 1/4.

A + B + C = D + E + F since diagonal QS divides the square into two equal portions.

We can see that the areas of regions A and F must be equal because they have the exact same measurements and form. Similar reasoning leads us to the conclusion that the areas of regions D and C are equal.

As a result, it follows that the size of regions E and B must likewise be equal. Due to the fact that URPT is a parallelogram, its area equals (base)(height)=(1)(2)=2.

Complete question -

The radius of such a cylinder will be 8 and height=8/3.

What is a cylinder?

Cylinder is one of the basic 3d shapes, in geometry, which has two parallel circular bases at a distance. The two circular bases are joined by a curved surface, at a fixed distance from the center. The line segment joining the center of two circular bases is the axis of the cylinder. The distance between the two circular bases is called the height of the cylinder. LPG gas-cylinder is one of the real-life examples of cylinders.

Since, the cylinder is a three-dimensional shape, therefore it has two major properties, i.e., surface area and volume. The total surface area(TSA) of the cylinder is equal to the sum of its curved surface area and area of the two circular bases. The space occupied by a cylinder in three dimensions is called its volume(V).

V=πr²h and TSA=2πr²+2πrh where r=radius and h=height.

Now,

In any case, we can let the radius of the inscribed cylinder be x

. That must therefore mean that the height of the cylinder is 8−4/6x

. This makes the volume of the cylinder

V=πx^2(8−2/3x)=π(8x^2−2/3*x^3)

To find the maximum volume of the cylinder we take the derivative of V

with respect to x

and set it to 0

dV/dx=π(16x−2x^2)=0⇒16x−2x^2=2x(8−x)=0

x=0  leads to a trivial case, which leaves us with x=8

. This means that the height is 8−2/3*8=8/3

, and the volume is therefore

V=π⋅8^2⋅8/3

V=512/3π.

Answer:

100° and 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

In an isosceles, 2 interior angles are equal.

If one angle is 40°, another one of its angles must be also 40°.

Fact of a triangle

Sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°.

Let the unknown angle be x.

x + 40° + 40° = 180°

x + 80° = 180°

x = (180 - 80)°

x = 100°

So, the other angle is 100°

Hence,

100° and 40° are the possible measures for the other two triangles.

Quantity of white paint applied to bedroom walls = 3/4

Quantity of blue paint applied to bedroom walls = 1 - 3/4

Quantity of blue paint applied to bedroom walls = 4/4 - 3/4

The slope of the perpendicular bisector i.e from (0, 6) to (3, 2)

Answer: To solve the equation -3(x+2)^2-4 = 5 by factoring, we can follow these steps:

Move all the terms to one side of the equation by adding 3(x+2)^2 and 4 to both sides: -3(x+2)^2-4+3(x+2)^2+4 = 5+3(x+2)^2

Combine like terms: 3(x+2)^2 = 5

Take the square root of both sides of the equation: (x+2)^2 = 5/3

Isolate x+2 on one side of the equation by taking the square root of both sides: x+2 = ±sqrt(5/3)

Solve for x by subtracting 2 from both sides of the equation: x = ±sqrt(5/3) - 2

So the solutions to the equation -3(x+2)^2-4 = 5 by factoring is x = ±sqrt(5/3) - 2.

It's important to note that the square root of a fraction is a positive and negative solution, so the solutions are x = sqrt(5/3) - 2 and x = -sqrt(5/3) - 2
