Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

The midsegment of a trapezoid is equal to one half the sum of the bases.

1. Set up the equation using the midsegment formula: 1/2 (QR + ST)

1/2 (3x + 31) = 8x - 17

2. Solve

1.5x + 15.5 = 8x - 17

32.5 = 6.5x

x = 5

Answer:

[tex]\huge \boxed{23}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

QR < LM < ST

LM is the middle segment, it is in between the length of QR and ST.

LM is also the average or mean of QR and ST.

(QR+ST)/2 = LM

(3x+31)/2 = 8x-17

Multiply both sides by 2.

(2)(3x+31)/2 = (2)8x-17

3x + 31 = 16x - 34

Subtract 16x and 31 from both sides.

3x + 31 - 16x - 31 = 16x - 34 - 16x - 31

-13x = -65

Divide both sides by -13.

(-13x)/-13 = -65/-13

x = 5

Substitute x = 5 for LM.

8(5) - 17

40 - 17

= 23

Answer:

  y = 5x

Step-by-step explanation:

The revenue (y) is 5 dollars for each car washed. The number of cars washed is x, so the revenue equation is ...

  y = 5x

_____

Additional comment

At the end of the exercise of writing revenue and cost and profit equations, you will find that the break-even number of cars is the ratio of fixed cost (start-up cost in this case) to the profit contribution of each car (per-car charge in this case). That is, it will take 75/5 = 15 cars to break even. Each additional car will contribute a positive profit.

Answer:

Equation INCLUDING the setup cost:   y = 5x - 75

Equation EXCLUDING the setup cost:   y = 5x

Step-by-step explanation:

It spent a total of $75 to set up the car wash.

It is charging $5 per car.

y = amount collected in $

x = number of cars washed

=> We can make an equation INCLUDING the setup cost and EXCLUDING the setup cost.

=> INCLUDING the setup cost.

=> y = 5x - 75

=> I subtracted 75 from 5x because they spent a total of $75 to set up the car wash.

=> I wrote 5x because they get $5 for each car so if they wash 10 cars they get 5 * 10 = $50.

An EXAMPLE  from the above equation:

y = 5x -75

=> y = 5*14 - 75

=> y = 70 - 75

=> y = -5

=> This means that if they wash 14 cars, they still have a debt of 5 dollars.

An equation EXCLUDING the setup cost will look like:

=> y = 5x

I wrote this because, they didn't spend any money so they will get 5 dollars per car. How many cars they wash, the answer will be 'number of cars x 5'.

An EXAMPLE from the above equation is:

=> y = 5x

=> y = 5 * 14

=> y = $70

=> This means that if they wash 14 cars, they get $70.

Answer:

40.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let J represent jelly snake.

Let L represent lollipops

Let S represent sample space

Let y represent the number of jelly snake in the bag. I.e

Number of J = y

Number of L = 10

Number of S = 10 + y

From the question given, we were told that the probability of jelly snake P(J) is 4/5.

But probability of jelly snake, P(J) is given by:

P(J) = nJ/nS

nJ = y

nS = 10 + y

P(J) = 4/5

Thu, we can obtain the number jelly snake, y, in the bag as follow:

P(J) = nJ/nS

4/5 = y/(10 + y)

Cross multiply

5y = 4(10 + y)

Clear bracket

5y = 40 + 4y

Collect like terms

5y – 4y = 40

y = 40

Therefore, the number of jelly snake in the bag is 40

Work Shown:

Solve for y. Then replace y with f(x).

[tex]680x + 10y - 1000 = 0\\\\10y - 1000 = -680x\\\\10y = -680x + 1000\\\\y = \frac{-680x + 1000}{10}\\\\y = \frac{-680x}{10} + \frac{1000}{10}\\\\y = -68x + 100\\\\y = 100 - 68x\\\\f(x) = 100 - 68x\\\\[/tex]

Effectively this involves adding 1000 to both sides and subtracting 680x from both sides, afterward we divide both sides by 10 to isolate y.

Step-by-step explanation:

I did this problem like 6 months ago......

Answer:

Plan A last for 30 minutes

Plan B last for 45 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two plans:

Plan A

Plan B

Monday

Plan A=3 clients

Plan B=2 clients

Total hours=3

Tuesday

Plan A=5 clients

Plan B=6 clients

Total hours=7

The equation for the unknown

3A + 2B=3 (1)

5A + 6B=7 (2)

Multiply (1) by 3 and (2) by (1)

9A + 6B=9 (3)

5A + 6B=7 (4)

Subtract (4) from (3)

4A=2

Divide both sides by 4

4A/4 = 2/4

A=1/2 hours

Substitute A=1/2 into (1)

3A + 2B=3

3(1/2) +2B=3

3/2 + 2B=3

2B= 3 - 3/2

2B= 6-3/2

2B=3/2

Divide both sides by 2

B=3/2÷2

=3/2×1/2

B=3/4 hours

A=1/2 hours

B=3/4 hours

60 minutes=1 hour

A=1/2 hours

1/2 × 60 minutes

=60/2

=30 minutes

B=3/4 hours

=3/4×60 minutes

=180/4

=45 minutes

Plan A last for 30 minutes

Plan B last for 45 minutes

Answer:

24 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for area of a parallelogram to solve.  The base is 6 units, and the height is 4 units.

A = bh

A = (6)(4)

A = 24 square units

The area of the parallelogram is 24 square units.

Answer:

∠ O = 61°, ∠ N = 119°

Step-by-step explanation:

In a parallelogram

Consecutive angles are supplementary

Opposite angles are congruent, thus

x + 2x - 3 = 180

3x - 3 = 180 ( add 3 to both sides )

3x = 183 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 61°

Thus

∠ O = ∠ M = x = 61°

∠ N = ∠ P = 2x - 3 = 2(61) - 3 = 122 - 3 = 119°

Answer: Brian invested $16000 in Fund B .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount Brian invested in Fund B.

Given, The $8000 that he invested in Fund A returned a 4% profit. The amount that he invested in Fund B returned a 1% profit.

i.e. profit on Fund A = 4% of 8000 = 0.04 ×8000 = $320

Profit on Fund B = 1% of x = 0.01x

Together they earn 1% profit, i.e. Combined profit = 2% of (8000+x)

= 0.02(8000+x)

As per question,

Combined profit=Profit on Fund A+Profit on Fund B

[tex]\Rightarrow\ 0.02(8000+x) =320+0.01x\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.02(8000) +0.02x=320+0.01x\\\\\Rightarrow\ 160+0.02x=320+0.01x\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.02x-0.01x=320-160\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.01x=160\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{160}{0.01}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=16000[/tex]

Hence, Brian invested $16000 in Fund B .

Answer:

£13496.80

Step-by-step explanation:

We can ignore the £ sign for now, that is just units.

If we decrease a number by 4.5%, we will have to find [tex]100-4.5=95.5[/tex]% of 14132.77.

We can easily do this by setting up a proportion.

[tex]\frac{x}{14132.77} = \frac{95.5}{100}[/tex]

Multiply 14132.77 by 95.5:

[tex]14132.77\cdot95.5=1349679.535[/tex]

Divide by 100:

[tex]1349679.535\div100=13496.79535[/tex]

Rounding this to two decimal places, it simplifies to 13496.80.

Functions are the fundamental part of the calculus in mathematics. The functions are the special types of relations. A function in math is visualized as a rule, which gives a unique output for every input . Mapping or transformation is used to denote a function in math. These functions are usually denoted by letters. The domain is defined as the set of all the values that the function can input while it can be defined. The range is all the values that come out as the output of the function involved. Co-domain is the set of values that have the potential of coming out as outputs of a function.

Answer:

x = (4y-6)/17

where x is the  number of pens each student got.

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of boxes = 4

no. of pen in 1 box = y

total no, of pens in 4 box =  No. of boxes *no. of pen in 1 box = 4y

No. of pen took away by Jaden's teacher = 6

no. of pens left = 4y - 6

This, 4y - 6 pen has to be divided among 17 students.

Let  each student get x pen

thus, total no. of pen got by 17 student  = 17x

This, 17x should be equal to total no. of pens available which is 4y-6

17x = 4y-6

=> x = (4y-6)/17

Thus, expression to represent  number of pens each student got

is x = (4y-6)/17

Answer:

4y-6/17

Step-by-step explanation:

Jaden’s teacher had 4 boxes of pens that each contained y pens.

Number of boxes of pen = 4

Number of pens per box = y

Total number of pens = 4 x y = 4y

She took 6 pens out of one of the boxes told her 17 students to divide the remaining pens equally among themselves.

Total number of pens left = 4y - 6

Number of students = 17

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The points of the triangle are  (- 5, 1), (2, 1), (2, - 1). The distance between two points is given by:

[tex]Distance=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

The horizontal leg is formed by points with the same y axis. Therefore the points that make up the horizontal leg is (- 5, 1), (2, 1). The Distance of the horizontal leg is:

[tex]Horizontal\ leg=\sqrt{(2-(-5))^2+(1-1)^2}=\sqrt{7^2+0}=7\ units[/tex]

The vertical leg is formed by points with the same x axis. Therefore the points that make up the vertical leg is (2 1), (2, 1-). The Distance of the vertical leg is:

[tex]Vertical\ leg=\sqrt{(2-2)^2+(-1-1)^2}=\sqrt{0+(-2)^2}=2\ units[/tex]

The hypotenuse is gotten using Pythagorean theorem. It is gotten by:

Hypotenuse² = (Horizontal leg)² + (Vertical leg)²

Hypotenuse² = 7² + 2²
