The average weight of 10 boys is 77.0 pounds. If the
youngest boy is excluded, the average weight of the
9 remaining boys is 78.0 pounds. What is the weight,
in pounds, of the youngest boy?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

68 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the total weight when there are 10 boys and when there are 9 boys then calculate the difference.

I'll let x = total weight.

[tex]\frac{x}{10}=77\\(10)\frac{x}{10}=77(10)\\x=770\\\\ \frac{x}{9}=78\\(9)\frac{x}{9}=78(9)\\x=702\\\\ 770-702=68[/tex]

Therefore, the youngest boy weighs 68 pounds.

A father is now twice as old as his son. If the sum of their ages ten years ago was fifty two, how old are they today?​

Answers

Answer:

24 and 48

Today, the son is 24 years old, and the father is 48 years old.  

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 10) + (2x - 10) = 52

3x + 20 = 52

3x = 72

x = 24

The father is 2 times his son's age.

2x

= 2(24)

= 48

So, the son is 24 and the father is 48.

10 years ago, son was 14 and father was 38, if added, this adds up to 52, so we know our calculations are correct.

Answer:

So the son’s age is 24 and the father’s is 48. Ten years ago, they were 14 and 38, which adds up to 52.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the son’s age is x, the father’s age is 2x.

Ten years ago:

(x - 10) + (2x - 10) = 52

3x + 20 = 52

3x = 72

x = 24

2x = 48

There are 3200 students at Lake High School and 2/5 of these students are sophomores. If 3/8 of the sophomores are opposed to the school forming a crew team and 1/8 of the remaining students (not sophomores) are also opposed to forming a crew team, how many students are in favor of this idea?

Answers

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5*3000 = 1200 seniors

then

3000 - 1200 = 1800 students not seniors

therefore

4/5* 1200 = 960 do not like rock climbing

and

9/10** 1800 = 1620 also do not like it:

"how many students are in favor of this idea?"

subtract the "don't likes" from 3000

3000 - (960+1620) = 420 like rock climbing:

A fruits seller bought some lemon for Re 1 for 15 lemon. if he sold all lemons at 25% profit, how many lemons were sold for Rs 1.​

Answers

Answer:

12 lemons

Step-by-step explanation:

CP of 15 lemon = ₹ 1

Profit = 25 %

SP of 15 lemons = [tex]\frac{100+profit}{100}*CP[/tex]

    [tex]= \frac{125}{100}*1\\\\= \frac{5}{4}[/tex]

Cross multiply,

(7y + 4) * 3 = -4*(y+ 2)

Use distributive property,

21y + 12 = -4y - 8

Subtract 12 from both side

21y = -4y - 8 - 12

sin60=opposite/hypotenuse

a=10.5

then after you have found the adjacent you can use the cos ratio

cos45=adjacent/hypotenuse

cos45=10.5/x

cos45x/cos45=10.5/cos45

x=14.849

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Using sine ratio in left right angled triangle to find the altitude a of the large triangle which is common to both right triangles and the exact value

sin60° = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex] , then

sin60° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{a}{7\sqrt{3} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

2a = 21 ( divide both sides by 2 )

a = [tex]\frac{21}{2}[/tex]

Using the cosine ratio in the right side triangle and the exact value

cos45° = [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }[/tex] , then

cos45° = [tex]\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{a}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

x = [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] a = [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{21}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{21\sqrt{2} }{2}[/tex] → D
