Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Equation is:     x+15.27 = 72.50Solution to that equation:    x = 57.23Interpretation:   Last month's phone bill was $57.23

========================================================

Explanation:

We'll make x the value of last month's phone bill. So if lets say x = 50, this means that last month's phone bill was $50. We don't know yet if x = 50 is the actual solution or not.

We're told that "This month's cell phone bill was for $15.27 more than last month's cell phone bill". This means this month's bill, in terms of x, is x+15.27 dollars. Whatever x is, we add 15.27 onto it getting this month's bill. This works because x is really a placeholder for a number.

Going back to x = 50, that would mean this months bill is x+15.27 = 50+15.27 = 65.27 dollars. We can see that we don't reach 72.50 that we're told the current months bill actually is. Since we don't have a match, this means x = 50 is too small. We can guess and check our way to hopefully land on the answer. However, using algebra is the most efficient method.

----------

The equation we need to solve is:   x+15.27 = 72.50

This is because x+15.27 represents this month's bill and so does the 72.50, as your teacher gave in the instructions.

To solve this equation, we'll undo the "plus 15.27" to isolate x fully. The opposite of addition is subtraction. We'll subtract 15.27 from both sides

x+15.27 = 72.50

x+15.27-15.27 = 72.50-15.27

x = 57.23

Last month's phone bill was $57.23

As a check, adding 15.27 onto last month's bill should get us to 72.50

x+15.27 = 57.23+15.27 = 72.50

It works out, so we've confirmed the answer.

A vacation resort offers surfing lessons and parasailing. If a

a total of $175. On Friday, the resort collects a total of $3,101 for
activities. How much does each activity cost?

Answers

$320 because if u take 3,101

After solving the equations, the cost of parasailing will be 99.75 and the cost of surfing will be equal to 75.25.

What is an Expression?

Mathematical actions are called expressions if they have at least two terms that are related by an operator and include either numbers, variables, or both.

Adding, subtraction, multiplying, and division are all reflection coefficient operations. A mathematical operation such as reduction, addition, multiplication, or division is used to integrate terms into an expression.

The given information in the question is,

Assume the cost of parasailing is x and the cost of surfing is y.

x + y = 175

Total number of people in Parasailing = 16 people

Total number of people in Surfing = 20 people

Total collection done by resort = $3,101

16x + 20y = 3,101

So, the equations will be,

16x+20y=3,101            (i)

x + y = 175                  (ii)

Now, multiply the equation (ii) by 16 and solve the equation,

16x+20y=3,101

16x+16y= 2,800

4y = 301

Now, find the value of y,

y = 301/4

y = 75.25

Then, the value of x will be equal to,

x + y = 175

x+75.25 =175

Solve for x:

x=175-72.25

x = 99.75

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x – 9y = 14

x= -6y +7     <-- (Substitute for x to above equation)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2(-6y +7)– 9y = 14

-12y + 14 - 9y = 14    <-- combine like terms

-21y + 14 = 14  

        -14 = -14   <-- inverse operation on both sides

      -21y = 0     <-- Divide

2x – 9y = 14

2x – 9(0) = 14     <-- Substituted y from above

-Lil_G

Step-by-step explanation:

450 miles = 1hour = 60mins

X miles = 30mins

cross multiply

450 × 30 = 60 × X

13500 = 60X

divide through by 60

225 = X

X = 1760 ×225

X = 396000 yards

Does this graph show a function? Explain how you know.

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

It passes the vertical line test

the vertical line test is taking a vertical line and putting it anywhere on the graph, and if it passes 2 points, it fails, and since if you put the line anywhere, it only passes one point of the parabala, so it passes the line test

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation: The easiest way to determine if a

relation is a function is to use the vertical line test.

The vertical line test tells us that if we can draw a vertical line

that intersects more than one point on the graph of a relation,

then the relation is not a function.

However, in this case, notice that there is no way to draw a

vertical line that intersects more than one point on the graph.

Therefore, this relation must be a function.

The isotope Herodium-100 decreases by half every minute, Herodium-100 is there
isotope that gives a super hero their strength. Once the amount depletes to 4 ml, a
superhero becomes tired and need to leave the fight. If Mathman has 2000mL in his
body, when will he have to rest and replenish, rounded to the nearest minute?

Answers

Answer:

After about 9 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write an exponential function to model the decay of Herodium-100.

We are given that it decreases by half every minute.

The standard exponential function is given by:

[tex]f(m)=A(r)^m[/tex]

Where A is the initial amount, r is the rate, and m is the rate (in this case, in minutes).

Mathman initially has 2000 mL of Herodium-100. Therefore, A = 2000.

And since it decreases by half every minute, r = 1/2. Thus:

[tex]\displaystyle f(m)=2000\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)^m[/tex]

Mathman needs to rest when the Herodium-100 levels drop to 4 mL. Therefore, we can substitute 4 for f(m) and solve for m:

[tex]\displaystyle 4=2000\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)^m[/tex]

Solve for m. Divide both sides by 2000:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{4}{2000}=\frac{1}{500}=\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)^m[/tex]

We can take the natural log of both sides:

[tex]\displaystyle \ln\Big(\frac{1}{500}\Big)=\ln\Big(\frac{1}{2}^m\Big)[/tex]

By logarithm properties:

[tex]\displaystyle \ln\Big(\frac{1}{500}\Big)=m\ln\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{\ln(1/500)}{\ln(1/2)}\approx 8.9657\approx 9\text{ minutes}[/tex]

Mathman will have to rest and replenish after 9 minutes.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. I can't see the first one very well.

2. Find the area of each triangle by doing 1/2 * base * height. This should give you [tex]40m^{2}[/tex]

3. The area of a trapezium is [tex]\frac{1}{2} (a+b)h[/tex] where a is the top edge, b is the bottom edge and h is the height.

We can work out the bottom edge using pythagoras - split the trapezium into 2 triangles on each side and a rectangle in the middle. This gives you the length of the bottom edge which is 2 + 2 + 2 = 6'

Work out the area by doing 1/2(2+6)4 = 16' squared.

4.Split this shape into a triangle and rectangle. We know the right hand edge of the triangle= 9-4 = 5'.

To find the bottom edge of the triangle, use tanθ=opposite/adjacent line. Therefore tan45=bottom edge of triangle/5'. tan 45=1 therefore bottom edge = 5'.

The bottom edge of triangle gives us the height; use 1/2(a+b)h to work out the area of the trapezium. 1/2(4+9)5 = 32.5' squared

What must be true about segment MN?

Answers

Answer:

The true properties of segment MN are;

1) MN is parallel to CB

2) MN = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure, we have;

The length of segment AN = 1

The length of segment NC = 2 = 2 × The length of segment AN

The length of segment AM = 1.8

The length of segment MB = 3.6 = 2 × The length of segment AM

The length of segment AC = 1 + 2 = 3

The length of segment AB = 1.8 + 3.6 = 5.4

Therefore, the length of transversal segments AC and AB are proportionally cut by the two lines, MN and CB

By the triangle proportionality theorem, two transversals are proportionally divided when they are crossed by two or more parallel lines

1) Therefore, lines MN and CB are parallel lines

Whereby we have that MN CB, we get;

ΔAMN ~ ΔABC

Therefore;

AN/AC = MN/CB

Plugging in the values, we get;

1/3 = MN/6

NM = 6 × 1/3 = 2

2) MN = 2

The length of segment CB = 6

Therefore, what must about segment MN are;

MN is parallel to CB and MN = 2.

By applying properties of similar triangles we got that MN is equal to 2 units.

What are similar triangles ?

Triangles whose shape are same are known as similar triangle .

In the given figure we can see that

in triangle  ABC and AMN

AN=1  

NC=2

So AC= AN+NC=1+2=3

AM=1.8

MB=3.6

So AB=AM+MB=5.4

[tex]\frac{AN}{NC}=\frac{1}{3} \\\\[/tex]

and

[tex]\frac{AM}{AB} =\frac{1.8}{5.4}=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

And angle A is common in both triangles

Hence by SAS property  triangle  ABC and AMN are similar .

So

[tex]\frac{MN}{CB}=\frac{1}{3} \\\\\\\\\frac{MN}{6}=\frac{1}{3} \\\\\\\\MN=2[/tex]
