(solving rate problems). Michelle can
complete a
landscaping job in 6
days and Danielle
can complete the
same job in 4 days.
Working together, in
how many days
could they complete
the job

Answers

Answer 1

They could complete the job together in 2.4 days

The known parameters are;

The number of days it would take Michelle to complete the landscaping job = 6 days

The number of days it would take Danielle to complete the landscaping job = 4 days

The unknown parameter;

The number of days can the job be completed if they work together

The process of finding the solution;

The rate at which Michelle works = 1/6 of the landscaping work per day

The rate at which Danielle works = 1/4 of the landscaping work per day

Method;

Find their combined work rate, from which the time would take them to complete the job together can be found

Let, C, represent their combined work rate

Therefore, we have;

C = (1/6 + 1/4) = 5/12 of the landscaping (work) job/(per) day

The number of days they could complete the, 1, job = 1 job(work)/(5/12 (work)job/day) = 12/5 days = 2.4 days

∴ The number of days they could complete the job together = 2.4 days.

These angles are corresponding angles, and we know that corresponding angles are equal when a transversal intersects two parallel lines.

So,

8x - 12 = 6x + 8

=> 8x - 6x = 8 + 12

=> 2x = 20

=> x = 20/2

=> x = 10

So, the value of x is 10.

8x-12=6x+88x-6x=8+122x=20x=20÷2x=10

The product of two numbers is 10000.If one number is 16 times the other numbers ,find the two numbers.​

Answers

➯Question:

The product of two numbers is 10000. If one number is 16 times the other numbers ,find the two numbers.

Answer:

Both numbers are 25 and 400.

Step By Step Explanation:

Given that:

The product of two numbers is 10000.

One number is 16 times the other number.

To Find:

Both numbers?

Solution:

Let us consider that one number be n, in question it is stated that other number is 16 times the first number. Therefore, other number is 16n.

According to the Question :

[tex]\sf↦ Product ~of ~numbers = 10000\\\\↦ n × 16n = 10000\\\\↦ 16n² = 10000\\\\↦ n² = \sf \dfrac{10000}{16}\\\\↦ \sf n = \sqrt{\dfrac{10000}{16}}\\\\↦ \sf n = \sqrt{\dfrac{100\:\times\:100}{4\:\times\:4}}\\\\↦ \sf n = {\cancel{\dfrac{100}{4}}}\\\\➦\pmb{\underline{\boxed{\sf{\pink{n = 25}}}}}[/tex]

Hence,

1st number = n = 25

2nd number = 16n = 16 × 25 = 400

∴ Hence, both numbers are 25 and 400.

▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓

Answer:

(25, 400) or (-25, - 400)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x and y.

We have:

y = 16xxy = 10000

Substitute y and solve for x:

x(16x) = 1000016x² = 10000x² = 10000/16x² = 625x = √625x = ± 25

Then y is:

y = ± 25*16 = ± 400

The numbers are:

25 and 400 or -25 and - 400

On a recent math test. Samantha scored 3 points for each of the 18 multiple choice que non se
answered correctly and 5 points for each of the 6 short response questions she answered correctly
She scored an additional 4 points for the bonus question. Write an expression for her total score on
the test and then find her score.

Answers

The required expression will therefore be:

(3×18) + (5×6) + 4

Her total score is 88points :

From the question given, we are told that Samantha scored 3 points for each of 18multiple questions his means that the total points made here is expressed as:

(3 × 18) ...1

If she got 5 points for each of the 6 short responsmultiple choice questione questions she answered

correctly, the total point made will be expressed as;

(5×6) ... 2

Total score for an additional 4 points for the bonus question will be "4"

Expression for her total score will be the sum of all the expression above as thus:

(3×18) + (5×6) + 4

Taking the sum, her score will be:

= (3×18) + (5×6) + 4

= 54 + 30 + 4

= 84 + 4

= 88 points

The required expression will therefore be:

(3×18) + (5×6) + 4

Her total score is 88points

. If a = 120°, find the measure of angles b, c and d.
Explain your reasoning.

Answers

∡b is a vertical angle to ∡a and therefore a twin, and we know that ∡a = 120°, thus since ∡b = ∡a, ∡b = 120° as well.

a full circle has a total of 360°, ∡d and ∡c are vertical angles, namely two angles across from each other at a junction, and therefore ∡d = ∡c.

∡a + ∡b is 120° + 120° thus 240°, since a circle has a total of 360°, 360 - 240 = 120, so the other two angles pick up that slack and divide it among each other evenly, 120/2 = 60, so ∡d = ∡c = 60°.

  2c +3p ≤ 108 . . . . . . . . available hours of preparation time

  1c +0.5p ≤ 20 . . . . . . . available hours of decoration time

  p ≥ 0, c ≥ 0 . . . . . . . . . negative numbers of cakes or pies cannot be produced

b. Sketch the feasible region

c. Write the profit function

d. Determine maximum profit

The attached table shows the profit for the various mixes of cakes and pies in the feasible region. The most profit is had by production of cakes only.

The maximum profit is $500 per day for production of 20 cakes.

Additional comment

We have used x for cakes and y for pies in the attachment, because those are variables that the Desmos calculator prefers.

As is sometimes the case, the production point giving maximum profit leaves one of the resources (preparation time) only partially utilized.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Two thirds of the students in a class have pets =

2/3 of the students in a class have pets

If there’re 36 students in the class, how many of the students have pets?

Step 1. Convert 2/3 as a decimal

2/3 = 66.6

Step 2. Use part/whole = part/whole

66.6%/100% = ?/36

Let ? represent the amount of students who have pets in class

Step 3. Divide 66.6/100

0.666

Step 4. Then multiply it by 36

The length of a room is two times its breadth and three times its height . if the cost of white wash on the 4 wall at Rs. 50 per m² is Rs. 7200, find the cost of carpeting its floor at Rs. 325 per m²​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the height of the room(h) = x

Length(l) = 3*x = 3x

length = 2 * breadth

breadth(b) = length /2 = 3x/2

Cost of whitewashing the 4  walls = ₹ 7200

Area of 4 walls = 7200 ÷ 50 = 144 m²   ------(I)

Area of walls = 2lh + 2bh

                      = 2*3x*x + 2  *[tex]\frac{3x}{2}[/tex] * x

                       = 6x² + 3x²

                        = 9x²

9x² = 144    {From (I)}

x²  = 144/9

x²  = 16

x = [tex]\sqrt{16}=\sqrt{4*4}[/tex]

x = 4 m

height = 4 m

length = 3*4 = 12m

Breadth = [tex]\frac{3}{2}*4=3*2=6 \ m[/tex]

Area of floor = l*b

                    = 12 * 6

                    = 72 m²

Cost of carpeting the floor = 72 * 325 = ₹ 23400
