The sum of two numbers is 40. The second number is 5 less than twice the first number. Let x represent the first number and let y represent the second number. What is the value of the first number? Use the table to guess and check.

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=40

y=2x-5

[tex]x = 40 - y \\ y = 2(40 - y) -5 \\ y = 80 - 2y - 5 \\ 3y = 75 \\ y =25 \\ x = 40 - y \\ x = 15[/tex]

How much is 75% of 10 liters of milk?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

100% of milk = 10 litres

=> 75% of milk = 10 * (75/100) = 7.5 litres.

Hence 75% of 10 litres of milk is 7.5 litres.

The answer is 7.5%


First you multiply 75 by 10, the result is divided by 100 and it gives you 7.5

3.) There are 3 brothers. The first brother is twice as old as the second. The second is twice as old as the third.
If the sum of their ages is 28, how old is each brother?

Answers

Answer:

The first brother is 16, the second brother is 8 and the third brother is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sum of all the brothers  is 28, that means the cap of how old the oldest can be is 28. I just stated with numbers less then 28 that were dividable by two which means all the numbers had to be. So 16 for the first, 8 for the second and 4 for the youngest is the right answer I hop.

Find the annual infiltration rate for the nearest 10th of a percent of a gallon of milk that increases the value from $1.51 to $2.03 over a period of seven years.

Answers

Answer:

7.429 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Price change = $1.51 to $2.03

Period of time = 7 years

Therefore, the annual inflation rate :

Difference in price / number of years

($2.03 - $1.51) / 7

$0.52 / 7

= 0.0742857 per year

= 0.0742857 * 100 (about 7.429 cents per year)

in the spring temperatures rise on average 6 degrees every 5 days. at that rate how many degrees would the temperature have risen after 30 days

Answers

Answer:

Ok, this is pretty simple. So, if it rises 6 degrees every five days, then we have to figure out how many "five days" are in 30 days. It would be 6! So now all we have to do is multiply. 6 times 6 equals 36 degrees.

The answer is 36 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

If it rises 6 degrees every 5 days, we just need to figure out how many 5 days are in 30 days. When you solve, you'll get 6. Now we can just multiply 6 x 6 = 36. Hope this helped, please mark brainliest if it did

Answer:

65 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing angle on the bottom is 35 degrees. This is because it lies on a straight line with the other angle being 145 degrees and a straight line is always 180 degrees, so 180-145=35 degrees. Now we have to find x so we should add the two known angles (35+80=115) and subtract it from 180 (180-115) to get 65 degrees for x.

Find the sum of interior angles of a 10-sided figure. Explain what formula you used to get the answer.

Answers

Answer: 1440°

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the above question, we'll use the formula (n-2) × 180. In this question, we are told that it has 10 sides. This implies that n= 10. Therefore, using the formula goes thus:

= (n - 2) × 180

where, n = 10

= (10 - 2) × 180

= 8 × 180

= 1440

Triangle PQR ≅ Triangle XYZ

Answers

Given:

[tex]\Delta PQR\cong \Delta XYZ[/tex]

[tex]PQ=3a+4[/tex]

[tex]XY=5a-12[/tex]

To find:

The value of a and PQ.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]\Delta PQR\cong \Delta XYZ[/tex]

[tex]PQ\cong XY[/tex]                            (CPCTC)

So,

[tex]PQ=XY[/tex]

[tex]3a+4=5a-12[/tex]

Isolating variable terms, we get

[tex]3a-5a=-4-12[/tex]

[tex]-2a=-16[/tex]

Divide both sides by -2.

[tex]a=\dfrac{-16}{-2}[/tex]

[tex]a=8[/tex]

Now,

[tex]PQ=3a+4[/tex]

[tex]PQ=3(8)+4[/tex]

[tex]PQ=24+4[/tex]

[tex]PQ=28[/tex]

Therefore, the value of a is 8 and the value of PQ is 28.

Find an equation of the line perpendicular to the graph of 14x-7y=8 passing through the point at (-2,5)

Answers

Answer:

Equation of line perpendicular to given graph is:

[tex]y = -\frac{1}{2}x+4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of line is:

14x-7y=8

First of all, we have to convert the given equation into slope-intercept form to find the slope of the line

The slope-intercept form is:

[tex]y = mx+b[/tex]

Now

[tex]14x-7y=8\\14x-8 = 7y\\\frac{7y}{7} = \frac{14x-8}{7}\\y = \frac{14}{7}x - \frac{8}{7}\\y = 2x - \frac{8}{7}[/tex]

The co-efficient of x is 2 so the slope of given line is 2

Let m1 be the slope of line perpendicular to given line

The product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is -1

[tex]m.m_1 = -1\\2.m_1 = -1\\m_1 = -\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

The equation for line perpendicular line to given line will be:

[tex]y = m_1x+b\\y = -\frac{1}{2}x+b[/tex]

To find the value of b, putting (-2,5) in the equation

[tex]5 = -\frac{1}{2}(-2) + b\\5 = 1+b\\b = 5-1\\b = 4[/tex]

The final equation is:

[tex]y = -\frac{1}{2}x+4[/tex]

Hence,

Equation of line perpendicular to given graph is:

[tex]y = -\frac{1}{2}x+4[/tex]

The number of miles driven varies directly with the number of gallons of gas used. If 8 gallons of gas are used to drive 204 miles, how many miles can be driven on 18 gallons of gas?

Answers

Answer:

3672

Step-by-step explanation:

If  8 gallons of gas were used to drive 204 miles  multiply  18x204=3,672 miles

The car be driven 459 miles on 18 gallons of gas.

What is linear proportionality?

A quantity is said to be linearly proportional to another quantity, if the value of the first quantity varies linearly with the second quantity.

Given,

8 gallons of gas is used to drive 204 miles.

Also, the number of miles driven varies directly with the number of gallons of gas used.

Therefore, (number of miles)/18 = 204/8

                    number of miles = 18 × (204/8)

                                                = 18 × 25.5

                                                = 459 miles

Hence, the car be driven 459 miles on 18 gallons of gas.
