The sum of three numbers is 10. Two times the second number minus the first number is equal to 12. The first number minus the second number plus twice the third number equals 7. Find the numbers.

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (-2, 5, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement lets us write three equations for the three numbers x, y, and z.

  x + y + z = 10

  -x + 2y = 12

  x - y + 2z = 7

__

Adding the second equation to each of the other two gives ...

  3y +z = 22

  y +2z = 19

Subtracting the second of these from double the first gives ...

  2(3y +z) -(y +2z) = 2(22) -(17)

  6y +2z -y -2z = 44 -19

  5y = 25

  y = 5

  z = 22 -3(5) = 7 . . . . . . from 3y+z=22

  x = 10 -5 -7 = -2 . . . . . .from x+y+z=10

The numbers are (x, y, z) = (-2, 5, 7).

If line a has a slope of -3 and is perpendicular to line b, what would is the slope of line b?

Answers

Answer:

Slope of line B: 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a slope perpendicular to another slope, you take its negative reciprocal.

Therefore, line B will have a slope of 1/3 because -3 -> -1/3 -> 1/3

How many poles will there be in a stack of telephone piles if there are 58 in the first layer, 57 in the second, 56 in the third, and so on, with 12 in the top layer?

Answers

Answer:

1,645 poles

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the total number of poles

We can have an arithmetic progression here

Where the last term is the 58 piles , the first term is the top layer which is 12 and the common difference between the piles is 1

Firstly, we calculate the number of stacks which can be obtained using the nth term formula;

Tn = a + (n-1)d

58 = 12 + (n-1)1

58 = 12 + n - 1

58 = n + 11

n = 58-11

n = 47

So we have the stack high up to 47 units

So, using the sum of terms in an arithmetic sequence formula, we have;

Sn = n/2 ( a + L)

where a is the first term 12 and L is the last term 58

Thus, we have

Sn = 47/2( 12 + 58)

Sn = 47/2 * 70

Sn = 1,645

ANSWER IS B

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 3 = 3x + 1

5x - 3x = 1 + 3

2x = 4

x = 4/2

x = 2

Answer:

B. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides 5x - 3 and 3x + 1 are the same length, so you can put an equal sign: 5x - 3 = 3x + 1, x = 2:

5(2) - 3 = 3(2) + 1

10 - 3 = 6 + 1

7 = 7

So x is 2

The object below is made with six identical cubes. Each cube edge is 3 inches long.
As
3 in.
What is the surface area of the object in square inches?

Answers

Answer:

306 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

All surfaces of the cubes are exposed to the outside except 2 ( where 2 of the cubes join).

6 separate cubes have 6 * 6 faces exposed so this object has 36 - 2 = 34 surfaces exposed.

Each face of one cube = 3*3 = 9 in^2.

Therefore the surface area =  9 * 34 = 306 in^2.

solve the equation 4^y = 8​

Answers

Answer:

y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

4 = 2² and 8 = 2³ , then

[tex]4^{y}[/tex] = 8, can be written

[tex](2^2)^{y}[/tex] = 2³

[tex]2^{2y}[/tex] = 2³

Since bases on both sides are equal, both 2, then equate exponents

2y = 3 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

y = 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] {4}^{y} = 8[/tex]

Take the logarithm of both sides and you will get

[tex] \log {4}^{y} = y \log4 = \log8[/tex]

or

[tex]y = \frac{\log8}{ \log4} = 1.5[/tex]

Answer:

the first one

Step-by-step explanation:

all created functional values must always be negative, because "absolute value" Shays creates only positive numbers, and then the "-" in front makes then sure we have only negative numbers.

that rules out the third and fourth answer option.

to decide between first and second answer, I choose to see, when the function should deliver 0 as functional value.

f(x) is 0, when x+3 is 0. and that is only possible for x=-3.

so, at x=-3, y=0.

and that is only true for the first answer option.

On the coordinate plane, point T is located at (0,7) and point U is located at (x,-5). The distance between points T and U is 15 units.
What are the two possible values of x?

Answers

Answer:

x = 9 or x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters of the given points are;

The location of the point T = (0, 7)

The location of the point U = (x, -5)

Then distance between points T and U = 15 units

The distance between points A and B, 'd', given their coordinates, A(x₁, y₁) and B(x₂, y₂) is found using the following formula;

[tex]d=\sqrt{\left (y_{2}-y_{1} \right )^{2}+\left (x_{2}-x_{1} \right )^{2}}[/tex]

Therefore, for the given points, T(0, 7) and U(x, -5), we get;

[tex]15 = \sqrt{\left ((-5) - 7 \right )^{2}+\left (x - 0 \right )^{2}}[/tex]

Squaring both sides, gives;

[tex]15^2 = \left ((-5) - 7 \right )^{2}+\left (x - 0 \right )^{2}} = (-12)^2 + x^2[/tex]

∴ x² = 15² - (-12)² = 81 = 9²

x² = 9²

∴ x = ±√(9²) = ± 9

The possible values of x are x = 9 or x = -9

A 99.96%
B 0.04%
C 1%
D 99.95%

Answers

Answer:

A 99.96%

Step-by-step explanation:

The z score shows by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. The z score is positive if the raw score is above the mean while the z score is negative if the raw score is below the mean. The z score is given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\\\where\ z=z-score,\ x=raw\ score,\mu=mean, \ \sigma=standard\ deviation\\\\For\ a\ sample\ size(n):\\\\z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

The probability can be gotten from the normal distribution table. Therefore from the normal table:

P(z < 3.37) = 0.9996 = 99.96%

Find the sum of the first 31 terms of the following series, to the nearest integer.
5, 14,23,...

Answers

Answer:

4340.

Step-by-step explanation:

14-5 = 9 and 23-14 = 9 so this is an arithmetic series with common difference of 9.

Sum of n terms = (n/2)[2a1 + d(n - 1)]

Here n = 31, d = 9 and a1 = 5.

So, substituting, we have:

Sum of 31 terms = (31/2)[2*5 + 9(31-1)]

= 15.5 * 280

= 4340.
