3. Six less than twice a number is 17. Which equation could be used to determine the
number, n?
A. 6-2n = 17
B. 2n-6 = 17
C. 6 - 7 n = 2n
D. 2n + 6 = 7​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

n represents our number. So, twice a number would be 2n because twice means multiply by two.

When the problem says 6 less, then it means 6 less than 2n. So, it would look like 2n-6.

FInally, the problem says that all of this equals 17 so 17 would be the result.

So, you answer is 2n-6 = 17. This is answer choice B.

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a right triangle with hypotenuse 10 and the height 8.  Either the one on the left or the one on the right

We can find the base using the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a^2 +8^2 = 10^2

a^2  +64 = 100

Subtract 64 from each side

a^2 = 100 -64

a^2 = 36

Take the square root of each side

a = 6

Now a is 1/2 of the total base of the big triangle.  It is identical since the triangles are equal

x = 2 * a

x = 2*6 = 12

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the right angle triangle with

base: x/2

height: 8

hypotenuse: 10

Using pythagoras theorem

10² = 8² + (x/2)²

(x/2)² = 100 - 64

(x/2)² = 36

x/2 = 6

x = 12

Two boats started to move towards each other from two boat stations, located 30 miles apart. One boat moved at a speed of 3 miles per hour, the other moved twice as fast. How soon will the boats meet?

Answers

Answer:

The boats will meet in 3.33 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The position of each boat can be modeled by a first order equation.

I am going to say that the first boat is at the position 0, and moving in the positive direction with a speed of 3 miles per hour. So

[tex]A(t) = 0 + 3t[/tex]

They are moving in oppositie directions, and initially are 30 miles apart. This means that the second boat starts at the position 30, and moves in the negative direction at the rate of 6 miles an hour. So

[tex]B(t) = 30 - 6t[/tex]

How soon will the boats meet?

This is t when:

[tex]A(t) = B(t)[/tex]

[tex]3t = 30 - 6t[/tex]

[tex]9t = 30[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{30}{9}[/tex]

[tex]t = 3.33[/tex]

The boats will meet in 3.33 hours.

Brianna and Ava go to the movie theater and purchase refreshments for their friends. Brianna spends a total of $39.00 on 2 bags of popcorn and 2 drinks. Ava spends a total of $174.50 on 8 bags of popcorn and 10 drinks. Write a system of equations that can be used to find the price of one bag of popcorn and the price of one drink. Using these equations, determine and state the price of a drink, to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

2p + 2d = 39 ____________(1)

8p + 10d = 174.50 _________(2)

Price of one drink is $9.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of a bag of popcorn be p.

Let the price of a drink be d.

Brianna spends a total of $39.00 on 2 bags of popcorn and 2 drinks. This implies that:

2p + 2d = 39 ____________(1)

Ava spends a total of $174.50 on 8 bags of popcorn and 10 drinks. This implies that:

8p + 10d = 174.50 _________(2)

We now have two system of equations which we can use to find the price of a bag of popcorn and drink:

2p + 2d = 39 ____________(1)

8p + 10d = 174.50 _________(2)

Multiply (1) by 4 subtract from (2):

 8p + 10d = 174.50 _______(2)

- 8p + 8d = 156    __________(1)

        2d = 18.50

=>       d = $9.25

The price of one drink is $9.25

A population of rabbits doubles every 60 days according to the formula P=10(2)^t/60, where P is the population of rabbis on day t. What is the value of t when the population is 320

Answers

Answer:

[tex] 320 = 10 (2)^{t/60}[/tex]

If we divide both sides by 10 we got:

[tex] 32 = 2^{t/60}[/tex]

We can apply natural log on both sides and we got:

[tex] ln (32) = \frac{t}{60} ln(2) [/tex]

And solving the value of t we got:

[tex] t = 60 \frac{ln(32)}{ln(2)}= 300[/tex]

So then we can conclude that after t = 300 days we will have approximately 320 rabbits  

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following function:

[tex] P(t) = 10 (2)^{t/60}[/tex]

Where P is the population of rabbis on day t. And for this case we want to find the value of t when P =320 so we can set up the following equation:

[tex] 320 = 10 (2)^{t/60}[/tex]

If we divide both sides by 10 we got:

[tex] 32 = 2^{t/60}[/tex]

We can apply natural log on both sides and we got:

[tex] ln (32) = \frac{t}{60} ln(2) [/tex]

And solving the value of t we got:

[tex] t = 60 \frac{ln(32)}{ln(2)}= 300[/tex]

So then we can conclude that after t = 300 days we will have approximately 320 rabbits

Myra is a scientist and needs 45 gallons of a 16% acid solution. The lab is currently stocked only with a 20% acid solution and a 10% acid solution. Myra will need to mix how many gallons of the 20% solution and how many gallons of the 10% solution to have what she needs.

Answers

Answer:

The volume of the solution with 20% acid is 27 gallons and the one with 10% acid is 18 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Myra needs to mix "x" gallons of the solution with 20% and "y" gallons of the solution with 10%. The volume of the final solution must be 45 gallons, therefore:

x + y = 45

The concentration of acid of the final solution is:

0.2*x + 0.1*y = 45*0.16

0.2*x + 0.1*y = 7.2

Therefore we have a system of equation:

x + y = 45

0.2*x + 0.1*y = 7.2

We need to multiply the first equation by -0.1:

-0.1*x -0.1*y = -4.5

0.2*x + 0.1*y = 7.2

We now sum both equation:

0.1*x = 2.7

x = 2.7/0.1 = 27 gallons

y = 45 - 27  = 18 gallons

If the two angles form a straight angle, their sum is 180

2x+50  + 6x+2 = 180

Combine like terms

Subtract 52 from each side

8x+52-52 = 180-52

8x =128

divide each side by 8

8x/8 = 128/8

A dolphin jumped up out of the water and back into the water in a parabolic path. (H) height (t) seconds . H=-8(t-0.5)^2+2 . How long will the dolphin be in the air?

Answers

Answer:

4 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

using the vertex formula of a quadratic,

[tex]a(x-h)^{2} + k[/tex], where (h,k) is the vertex

[tex]h = -8(t-0.5)^{2}+2[/tex]    h is height and t is time in seconds

the vertex (maximum height) of the dolphin is (h,k) or (0.5, 2)  

Height of 1/2

time of 2 seconds

it will take 2 additional seconds to reach the water again.

this can also be solved using quadratic equation, but since it was already set up in vertex form, i'd use that.

A triangle has a base length of (2x - 4) units and a height of (x + 5) units. Write and solve a quadratic equation to determine what value of x gives the triangle an area of 44 square units.

Multiply the 1/2 time (2x-4)

44 = (x-2) (x+5)

FOIL

44 = x^2 +5x -2x-10

Combine like terms

44 = x^2 +3x -10

Subtract 44 from each side

0 = x^2 +3x -10-44

0 = x^2 +3x -54

Factor

What two numbers multiply to -54 and add to 3

9*-6 = -54

9+-6 = -3

0 = (x+9)(x-6)

Using the zero product property

x +9 =0    x-6 =0

x = -9          x = 6

The height cannot be negative so x cannot be -9

x=6
