The sum of three numbers is 3. The first number minus the second plus the third is -3. The first minus the third is 1 more than the second.
Find the numbers. What is the first number? What is the second number? What is the third number?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The first number is 2, the second number is 3 and the third number is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be 'x', the second number be 'y' and the third number be 'z'

The equations according to the question becomes:

⇒ x + y + z = 3              ....(1)

⇒ x - y + z = -3              ....(2)

⇒ x - z = 1 + y              ....(3)

Rearranging equation 3:

⇒ x - y = 1 + z                .....(4)

Putting in equation 2:

⇒ 1 + z + z = -3

⇒ 1 + 2z = -3

⇒ z = -2

Putting this value in equation 4 and equation 1, we get:

⇒ x - y = -1

⇒ x + y = 5

Cancelling 'y' by eliminiation method and equation becomes:

⇒ 2x = 4

⇒ x = 2

Putting value of 'x' and 'z' in equation 1:

⇒ 2 + y - 2 = 3

⇒ y = 3

Hence, the first number is 2, the second number is 3 and the third number is -2

A car and a motorcycle whose average rates are in the ratio of 4:5 travel a distance of 160 miles. If the motorcycle
travels 1/2 hour less than the car, find the average rate of each.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I always advise my students to make a table of information for these story problems because trying to keep track of the information otherwise is a nightmare. The table will look like this:

           d      =      r      *      t

m

c

m is motorcycle and c is car.

First thing we are told is that the ratio of m's speed to c's speed is 5:4; that means that we can divide 5/4 to find out how many times faster m is going than c.

5/4 = 1.25 so we have a couple of values to put into the table right away, along with the fact that they are both traveling the same distance of 160 miles.

             d      =     r      *      t

m        160     =   1.25r

c         160     =     r

The last thing we have to fill in is the time. If m travels a half hour less than c, c is driving a half hour more than m, right? Filling that in:

            d      =      r      *      t

m       160     =   1.25r   *     t

c        160     =      r       *  t + .5

Now we have our 2 equations. Looking at the top row of the table gives us the formula we need to solve this problem. It tells us, in other words, what we are going to be doing with these columns of numbers. Distance equals the rate times the time. For the motorcycle, the equation is:

160 = (1.25r)t  and that seems pretty useless since we still have 2 unknowns in there and you can only have 1 unknown in 1 equation. Let's see what the equation for the car is.

160 = (t + .5)r  Same problem.

Let's go back to the equation for the motorcycle and since we are looking for the rates of each, let's solve that equation for time in terms of rate (solve it for t):

[tex]t=\frac{160}{1.25r}[/tex] and sub that into the car's equation in place of t:

[tex]160=r(\frac{160}{1.25r})+.5r[/tex] and simplify. The r's to the left of the plus sign cancel out leaving us with:

[tex]160=(\frac{160}{1.25})+.5r[/tex] and divide those numbers inside the parenthesis to get:

160 = 128 + .5r and subtract 128 from both sides to get:

32 = .5r and finally divide by .5 to get

r = 64 miles/hour

The car goes 64 mph and the motorcycle goes 1.25 times that so,

m = 1.25(64) and

m = 80 mph

STEP 1: divide the shape into rectangles

Rectangle 1: 2ft*3ft

Rectangle 2: 2ft*5ft

STEP 2: Find the area of each rectangle

Equation for area of a rectangle = bh

Rectangle 1: b = 2, h = 3

Rectangle 2: b = 2, h = 5

(2 * 3) + (2 * 5)

6 + 10

16 ft^2

Now, we have to find the perimeter

STEP 1:  Find the unknown side lengths.

To find the lengths of the sides not labeled, you have to use the lengths of the sides we already know.

The length of one parallel side is 5, and the length of another parallel side is 2. The length of the unknown side starts at the same place as the top of the side length that is 5, and ends at the top of the side length that is 2. This means that we have to subtract 2 from 5 in order to find the unknown side length.

STEP 2: Add up all the side lengths

P = 2 + 5 + 5 + 2 + 3 + 3

P = 20 ft

Don't forget to label your answers!!

Step-by-step explanation:

Given M is directly proportional to r then the equation relating them is

M = kr ← k is the constant of proportion

To find k use the condition when r = 2, M = 14 , then

14 = 2k ( divide both sides by 2 )

7 = k

M = 7r ← equation of proportion

When r = 12

M = 7 × 12 = 84

Answer:

After 10 years, Julie's account balance will be $ 363.88 and Leah's account balance will be $ 411.75, thus Leah will have more money in her account.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Julie invests $ 200 per month in an account that earns 6% interest per year, compounded monthly, and Leah invests $ 250 per month in an account that earns 5% interest per year, compounded monthly, to determine the amount of each after 10 years, the following calculations must be performed:

200 x (1 + 0.06 / 12) ^ 10x12 = X

200 x 1.005 ^ 120 = X

200 x 1.8193 = X

363.88 = X

250 x (1 + 0.05 / 12) ^ 10x12 = X

250 x 1.00416 ^ 120 = X

250 x 1.647 = X

411.75 = X

Therefore, after 10 years, Julie's account balance will be $ 363.88 and Leah's account balance will be $ 411.75, thus Leah will have more money in her account.

Three more: +3

Twice a number: 2x

Combined:

2x + 3 = 35.

Get rid of the 3 by subtracting it from both sides:

2x = 32

Get rid of the 2 by dividing it from both sides:

x = 16

Let the unknown number be x.

Now we translate the sentence into an equation piece by piece.

Three more than twice a number is 35.

2x

Three more than twice a number is 35.

2x + 3

Three more than twice a number is 35.

2x + 3 = 35

Answers

Answer:

A. (5, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\begin{cases}x+y=7,\\2x+3y=16\end{cases}[/tex],

Multiply the first equation by 2, then subtract both equations to get rid of any terms with [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]\begin{cases}2(x+y)=2(7),\\2x+3y=16\end{cases}\\\implies 2x+2y=14,\\2x+3y=16,\\2x-2x+2y-3y=14-16,\\-y=-2,\\y=\boxed{2}[/tex]

Substitute [tex]y=2[/tex] into any equation to solve for [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]x+y=7,\\x+2=7,\\x=7-2=\boxed{5}[/tex]

Since coordinates are written as (x, y), the solution to this system of equations is (5, 2).

Answer:

A. ( 5 , 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

solve by elimination method

In order to solve by elimination, coefficients of one of the variables must be the same in both equations so that the variable will cancel out when one equation is subtracted from the other.

x + y = 7, 2x + 3y = 16

To make x and 2x equal, multiply all terms on each side of the first equation by 2 and all terms on each side of the second by 1.

2x + 2y = 2 × 7, 2x + 3y = 16

Simplify.

2x + 2y = 14, 2x+3y=16

Subtract 2x+3y=16 from 2x+2y=14 by subtracting like terms on each side of the equal sign.

2x - 2x + 2y - 3y = 14 - 16

Add 2x to -2x. Terms 2x and -2x cancel out, leaving an equation with only one variable that can be solved.

2y - 3y = 14 - 16

Add 2y to -3y.

-y = 14 - 16

Add 14 to -16.

-y = -2

Divide both sides by -1.

y = 2

Substitute 2 for y in 2x+3y=16. Because the resulting equation contains only one variable, you can solve for x directly.

2x + 3 × 2 = 16

Multiply 3 and 2

2x + 6 = 16

Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation.

2x = 10

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 10

The system is now solved.

x = 5 and y = 2

The following measurements (in picocuries per liter) were recorded by a set of argon gas detectors installed in a research facility:

381.3,394.8,396.1,380
Using these measurements, construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean level of argon gas present in the facility. Assume the population is approximately normal.

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the mean level of argon gas present in the facility is (374.4, 401.7).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we have to find the sample mean and the sample standard deviation.

Sample mean:

[tex]\overline{x} = \frac{381.3+394.8+396.1+380}{4} = 388.05[/tex]

Sample standard deviation:

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{(381.3-388.05)^2+(394.8-388.05)^2+(396.1-388.05)^2+(380-388.05)^2}{3}} = 8.58[/tex]

Confidence interval:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, so the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 4 - 1 = 3

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 3 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 3.1824

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 3.1824\frac{8.58}{\sqrt{4}} = 13.65[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 388.05 - 13.65 = 374.4

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 388.05 + 13.65 = 401.7

The 95% confidence interval for the mean level of argon gas present in the facility is (374.4, 401.7).

The correct answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a jar contains 4 pieces of gum, 7 pieces of candy, and 3 pieces of mint, and each time you draw out an item, you record the outcome and put the item back in the jar before making another draw, to determine what is the probability that you get exactly the sequence candy-mint-candy, in that order, the following calculation should be performed:

4 + 7 + 3 = 14

7/14 x 3/14 x 7/14 = X

0.5 x 0.2142 x 0.5 = X

0.053 = X

Therefore, the probability that the chosen sequence will be obtained is 0.0530, or 5.3%.

or, 3x + 5 = 10x + 35

or, 5 - 35 = 10x - 3x

or, -30 = 7x

or, -30/7 = x

21. let x be the other number

we know,

or, x × 1/7 =2

or, x/7 =2

or, x = 14

therefore, the other number is 14.

Solve the rational equation x+3/3x-2-x-3/3x+2=44/9x^2-4

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

When given the following equation;

[tex]\frac{x+3}{3x-2}-\frac{x-3}{3x+2}=\frac{44}{9x^2-4}[/tex]

One has to solve for the variable (x). Remember, when working with fractions, one must have a common denominator in order to perform operations. Since the denominators on the left side of the equation are unlike, one must change them so that they are like denominators. Multiply each fraction by the other fraction's denominator on the respective side. Remember to multiply both the numerator and denominator by the value to ensure that the equation remains true.

[tex]=\frac{x+3}{3x-2}*(\frac{3x+2}{3x+2})-\frac{x-3}{3x+2}*(\frac{3x-2}{3x-2})=\frac{44}{9x^2-4}[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex]=\frac{(x+3)(3x+2)}{(3x-2)(3x+2)}-\frac{(x-3)(3x-2)}{(3x+2)(3x-2)}=\frac{44}{9x^2-4}\\\\=\frac{3x^2+11x+6}{9x^2-4}-\frac{3x^2-11x+6}{9x^2-4}=\frac{44}{9x^2-4}[/tex]

Distribute the negative sign to simplify the left side of the equation;

[tex]=\frac{3x^2+11x+6}{9x^2-4}-\frac{3x^2-11x+6}{9x^2-4}=\frac{44}{9x^2-4}\\\\=\frac{3x^2+11x+6-(3x^2-11x+6)}{9x^2-4}=\frac{44}{9x^2-4}\\\\=\frac{3x^2+11x+6-3x^2+11x-6}{9x^2-4}=\frac{44}{9x^2-4}\\\\=\frac{22x}{9x^2-4}{=\frac{44}{9x^2-4}[/tex]

Since the denominators on opposite sides of the equation are like, one can now ignore the denominators,

[tex]=22x=44[/tex]

Inverse operations,

[tex]=22x=44[/tex]

   ÷[tex]2[/tex]       ÷[tex]2[/tex]

     [tex]x=2[/tex]

The width of a rectangle is 2 cm less than its length. The perimeter is 52 cm. The length is:
14 cm.
12 cm.
9 cm.
None of these choices are correct.

Answers

Answer: 14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangle:

Length = xWidth = x - 2

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

2x + 2(x - 2) = 52

2x + 2x - 4 = 52

4x = 52 + 4

4x = 56

x = 14
