Two trucks leave a warehouse at the same time, traveling in opposite directions. The rate of the faster truck exceeds that of the slower truck by 2 miles per hour. After 5 hours, they are 315 miles apart. What are the rates of the trucks?

Answer:

(7,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

(7, - 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

x - y = 9 ( add y to both sides )

x = y + 9 → (1)

2x + 5y = 4 → (2)

Substitute x = y + 9 into (2)

2(y + 9) + 5y = 4 ← distribute parenthesis and simplify left side

2y + 18 + 5y = 4

7y + 18 = 4 ( subtract 18 from both sides )

7y = - 14 ( divide both sides by 7 )

y = - 2

Substitute y = - 2 into (1)

x = - 2 + 9 = 7

solution is (7, - 2 )

========================================================

Explanation:

Let x and y be two positive whole numbers. They may or may not be equal.

The first bag has the ratio of red to blue as 3:5, which scales up to 3x:5x after multiplying both parts by x. We have 3x red and 5x blue.

The second bag has the ratio 3:2 which scales up to 3y:2y. This bag has 3y red and 2y blue.

We can make a handy table to keep track of all the expressions

[tex]\begin{array}{|c|c|c|}\cline{1-3}\text{ } & \text{Red} & \text{Blue}\\ \cline{1-3}\text{bag 1} & 3x & 5x\\ \cline{1-3}\text{bag 2} & 3y & 2y\\ \cline{1-3}\end{array}[/tex]

Based on that, we can then say:

Effectively, I added down along each column of that table.

Divide the two expressions for R and B to lead to the fraction 11/9, which is directly from the ratio 11:9

So,

(total red)/(total blue) = 11/9

R/B = 11/9

(3x+3y)/(5x+2y) = 11/9

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

Let's cross multiply and then solve for y

(3x+3y)/(5x+2y) = 11/9

9(3x+3y) = 11(5x+2y)

27x+27y = 55x+22y

27y-22y = 55x-27x

5y = 28x

y = 28x/5

y = (28/5)x

y = 5.6x

We'll keep this in mind for later.

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

Now let:

Recall that we had 3x red and 5x blue for the first bag. That means we have 3x+5x = 8x marbles in the first bag. Therefore, F = 8x.

Also, we had 3y red and 2y blue for the second bag.

So we have S = 3y+2y = 5y

Then we can apply further substitution to say

S = 5y

S = 5(5.6x) .... plug in y = 5.6x

S = 28x

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

In short,

for some positive whole number x. We don't have enough info to pin down what x is exactly; however, it doesn't really matter. This is because the x variable will cancel when dividing F over S

F/S = (8x)/(28x) = 8/28 = 2/7

The fraction 2/7 leads directly to the final answer of the ratio 2:7

In other words, the ratio 8x:28x simplifies fully to 2:7 after dividing both parts by 4x.

The ratio between the total marbles of the first bag and the second bag is 2:7.

An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.

Example:

2x + 4 = 9 is an equation.

We have,

x marbles in the first bag.

red marbles = 3x

blue marbles = 5x

y marbles in the second bag.

red marbles = 3y

blue marbles = 2y

Now,

Total red marbles in both bags.

3x + 3y = 11 _____(1)

3x = 11 - 3y

x = (11 - 3y) / 3

Total blue marbles in both bags.

5x + 2y = 9 ______(2)

From (1) and (2) we get,

Multiply 2 in (1).

6x + 6y = 22

6y = 22 - 6x _____(3)

Multiply 3 in (2)

15x + 6y = 27 ______(4)

Putting (3) in (4)

15x + 22 - 6x = 27

9x = 27 - 22

9x = 5

x = 5/9

Now,

x = 5/9 in (3)

6y = 22 - 6(5/9)

6y = 22 - 10/3

6y = (66 - 10)/3

y = 56/18

y = 28/9

Now,

First bag.

Red marbles = 3x = 3 x 5/9 = 5/3

Blue marbles = 5x = 5 x 5/9 = 25/9

Total marbles = 5/3 + 25/9 = (15 + 25)/9 = 40/9

Second bag.

Red marbles = 3y = 3 x 28/9 = 28/3

Blue marbles = 2y = 2 x 28/9 = 56/9

Total marbles = 28/3 + 56/9 = (84 + 56)/9 = 140/9

Now,

The ratio between the total marbles of the first bag and the second bag.

= 40 :140

= 4:14

= 2:7

Thus,

The ratio is 2:7.

Answer:

y =47.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

First eliminate the fractions by multiplying through by the LCM of 7 and 3 which is 21:

21* 6[y-2]/7-21*12 = 21*2[y-7]/3

18(y - 2) - 252 = 14(y - 7)

18y -36 - 252 = 14y - 98

18y - 14y = -98 + 36 + 252

4y = 190

y = 190/4

y = 47.5.

Given the following data:

In Trigonometry, you should take note of the following mathematical expression:

[tex]sin^2x + cos^2x = 1[/tex]

Therefore, we can obtain the following:

[tex]sin^2x = 1 - cos^2x[/tex]   ...equation 1.

[tex]cos^2x = 1 - sin^2x[/tex]    ...equation 2.

solve the equation below :-

2x+4=3(x-4)

x = 16

=> 2x+4 = 3(x-4)

=> 2x+4 = 3x-12

=> 2x+4 - 4 = 3x-12 - 4 (Subtract 4 on both the sides)

=> 2x = 3x-16

=> 2x-3x = -16

=> -x = -16

=> -x/-1 = -16/-1

=> x = 16
