Laura brought some fish; salt water ($2 each) and fresh water ($1 each). If she has 15 fish and the total was $23 - how many of each fish did she buy?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

8 salt water

7 fresh water

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's represent salt water fish with the variable "s" and fresh water fish with the variable "f".

We can make a system of equations - one equation for the number of fish and the other for the price of the fish.

We know that the total number of fish Laura has is 15, and the total price of the fish was $23.

s + f = 15 2s + f = 23

Solve the system of equations by subtracting the bottom equation from the top equation.

-s =-8s = 8

Laura bought 8 salt water fish. Since the total number of fish is 15, the number of fresh water fish must be 7.

Answer 2

Answer:

8  

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of fresh water be: - x

Number of salt fishes be 15 - x

x + 2 (15 - x) = 23

x + 30 - 2x = 23

x = 7

Number of fresh water fish bought: -7

Number of salt water fish bought by: -15 -7 = 8

[tex](5 + 4 \sqrt{7} ){x}^{2} + (4 - 2 \sqrt{7} ) x- 1 = 0[/tex]

Simplify both radicals.

[tex](5 + \sqrt{112) {x}^{2} } + (4 - \sqrt{28} )x - 1 = 0[/tex]

Apply Quadratic Formula

First. find the discramnint.

[tex](4 - \sqrt{28} ) {}^{2} - 4(5 + \sqrt{112} )( - 1) = 64[/tex]

Now find the divisor 2a.

[tex]2(5 + \sqrt{112} ) = 10 + 8 \sqrt{7} [/tex]

Then,take the square root of the discrimant.

[tex] \sqrt{64} = 8[/tex]

Finally, add -b.

[tex] - (4 + 2 \sqrt{7} )[/tex]

So our possible root is

[tex] - (4 + 2 \sqrt{7} ) + \frac{8}{10 + 8 \sqrt{7} } [/tex]

Which simplified gives us

[tex] \frac{ 4 + 2 \sqrt{7} }{10 + 8 \sqrt{7} } [/tex]

Rationalize the denominator.

[tex] \frac{4 + 2 \sqrt{7} }{10 + 8 \sqrt{7} } \times \frac{10 - 8 \sqrt{7} }{10 - 8 \sqrt{7} } = \frac{ - 72 - 12 \sqrt{7} }{ - 348} [/tex]

Which simplified gives us

The quadratic formula can be used, where a=(5+4√7), b=(4-2√7), c=-1.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for an arithmetic sequence is

[tex]a_n=a_1+d(n-1)[/tex]  where n is the position of the number in the sequence, a1 is the first number in the sequence, and d is the difference between the numbers in the sequence.

Our first number is 2, so a1 = 2; to get from 2 to 5 we add 3, to get from 5 to 8 we add 3. That means that d = 3. Filling in the standard form of the equation:

[tex]a_n=2+3(n-1)[/tex] which simplifies to

[tex]a_n=2+3n-3[/tex] and a bit more to

[tex]a_n=3n-1[/tex] (which should tell you that arithmetic sequences are lines!)

Finding the 13th number simply requires that we replace n with 13 and solve:

[tex]a_{13}=3(13)-1[/tex] so

[tex]a_{13}=38[/tex]

Answer:

38

Step-by-step explanation:

This isn't the most efficient way but it's the best I can do.

2, 5, 8, 11....

The pattern is that we add 3 every time.

2, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, 20, 23, 26, 29, 32, 35, 38,

1 , 2, 3, 4, 5,  6,   7,    8,    9,   10,  11,   12,  13

We can see that 38 is the 13th term of the sequence.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

kx - c = 9 ( add c to both sides )

kx = 9 + c ( isolate x by dividing both sides by k )

x = [tex]\frac{9+c}{k}[/tex]

you start by isolating the variable by dividing each side by factors that don’t contain the variables

Answers

Answer:

213.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a pyramid is 1/3 base times height.

Using this formula, our square base is 8*8, or 64 square units.

Multiplying that by the height, 10. We get 64*10, 640.

Finally dividing by 3, we have 213.3333333333...

Rounding that to the nearest tenth, 213.3.

The volume of the given square pyramid is 480 cubic centimeter.

What is the volume?

Volume is the measure of the capacity that an object holds.

Formula to find the volume of the object is Volume = Area of a base × Height.

Given that, Slant height of pyramid is 10 cm and base is 8 cm.

The volume of square based pyramid =a²h/3.

Now, volume = (8²×10)/3

= 213.33 cubic centimeter

Therefore, the volume of a square pyramid is 213.33 cubic centimeter.
