A zoo has an equal number of African elephants and Asian elephants. The African elephants cost £11 per day to feed and the Asian elephants cost £9 per day to feed. The total daily bill for feeding all of the zoo's elephants is £1000. How many elephants does the zoo have?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The zoo has 50 African elephants and 50 Asian elephants which means that there are 100 elephants.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information provided, you can say that the result of adding up the African elephants cost to feed per day for the number of African elephants plus the Asian elephants cost to feed per day for the number of Asian elephants would be equal to £1000, which can be expressed as:

11x+9y=1000, where:

x is the number of African elephants

y is the number of Asian elephants

Now, as the statement indicates that the zoo has an equal number of African elephants and Asian elephants, this means that x=y and you can replace y with x and solve for x:

11x+9x=1000

20x=1000

x=1000/20

x=50

According to this and considering that the zoo has an equal number of African elephants and Asian elephants, the answer is that the zoo has 50 African elephants and 50 Asian elephants which means that there are 100 elephants.

Suppose you make coffee and it starts off just too hot to drink, so you put it in the refrigerator temporarily to cool it off. If the original temperature is 190 degrees Fahrenheit and the refrigerator is 36 degrees Fahrenheit, what will the temperature of the coffee be after 3 minutes? (k = 0.12)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= 36( 1 - 0.12)^x. F(x)= 36(0.88)^3. f(x)= 95.04    190-95.05 = 94.95 degree.

Because the temperature is going down, we will use (1-0.12) instead of (1+0.12). X=3 because it is what temperature after 3 min. x= time.

A missing piece of a board game, a circular disk, had an area of 100,608.7, the replacement disks are listed using circumferences, what size circumference should be ordered 1. 1,124.12 mm 2. 0.7 mm 3. 179 mm 4. 1,263,645.774 mm

Answers

Answer:

1,124.12 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Steps to answering this question :

First determine the radius of the circle from the area of the circle

Use the radius determined above to calculate the circumference

Area of a circle = nr²

where r = radius

n = pi = 3.14

100,608.7mm = nr²

to determine the radius, divide both sides of the equation by 3.14

32,040.98726mm = r²

Find the square root  of 32,040.98726mm

√32,040.98726mm

r = 179mm

Circumference of a circle = 2nr

2 x 179 x 3.14 = 1,124.12 mm

A storekeeper increased the price of hats by 5%. Write an equation to calculate the increase of the total cost, c, when the price of a hat is p dollars.

Answers

Answer:

c = 1.05p

Step-by-step explanation:

the price of the hat before the increase was 100%, after the increase it becomes 100 + 5% = 105%. Representing it as a decimal becomes 1.05p

Let illustrate with an example.

The price of a hat was $100, after the 5% increase. the cost of the hat becomes

100 + (0.05 x 100) = 105

To find the percentage increase

divide 105 by 100 and subtract 1

(105/100) - 1 = 1.05

-6x -6y = 66

Answers

Answer:

(23/2, 1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve this system through elimination by addition/subtraction:

Divide all three terms of the first equation by 3.  This results in the equivalent system

-2x - 2y = 33

2x + 4y = -32

Combining like terms results in:

2y = 1, and so y = 1/2.

Let's use the first equation and y = 1/2 to find x:

-6x - 6(1/2) = 66

This becomes -6x - 3 = 66, or -6x = 69, or x = -69/6 , or x = 23/2

The solution is thus (23/2, 1/2)

May someone help me out with these problems? Please explain

Answers

Answer:

Well you have to solve each problem first to make them the same. Let's do decimals.

a) The square root of 58 is 7.61577310586. Let's round that to 7.62. You can solve this with a calculator.

b) Simply -32.0, since it is a whole negative number.

c) I think there's a typo, 'C' is the second 'b)', which is 49/7. 49 divided by 7 is seven, hence the decimal would be 7.0

d) 2.65 repeated, already a decimal, does not need changed.

e) The square root of 6 is 2.44948974278. Let's round that to 2.45.

f) is just 0. no decimal, just 0.

Now that you have these as the same form of number, you have to put them into one of these categories. The categories can be found below.

Any square root number is irrational. Any never ending number is irrational, like pi, but there are none of those in this situation. So a, and e are all irrational.

Any repeated number, in this case, 2.65 repeated, is a rational number, as is any decimal or fraction, but there are none of these, so d is rational.

-32 is and integer, because it is a negative whole number, so b is an integer.

Whole numbers are any numbers 0+. So f is the only answer that is a whole number.

Natural numbers are any numbers 1+. So c or the second b is a natural number.

Hope this helps :)

An equation is a  mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.  In its simplest form in algebra, the definition of an equation is a mathematical statement that shows that two mathematical expressions are equal. For instance, 3x + 5 = 14 is an equation, in which 3x + 5 and 14 are two expressions separated by an 'equal' sign.

here, we have,

number 5:36  i really hope this helps! have a good day!

Step-by-step explanation:

1: 2x^2+12x +0=0

this is how you set it up

next, you have to find the a,b,and c. This is my personal favorite way of doing this.

a=2 b=12, c=0

you plug it in to the quadratic formula which is

-b±√b^2-4ac/2a

(-12)±√(12)^2-4(2)(0)/2(2)

next you have to simplify

-12±√144-0/4

take the square root of 144

-12±12/4-

then, find the solutions of them

-12+12=0

0/4=0

x=0

we are not done yet

-12-12=-24

-24/4

x=-6

your solutions are 0,-6, which is C

2: it is giving us x, which is -2

plug in -2 to the right side of the equation.

2(-2)^2-4(-2)+9

2(4)-8+9

8-8+9

f(-2)=9

3: this one is fairly simple

x^2=100

take the square root of each side

x=±10

4: you have to replace y for 0 in this one

x^2-x-6=0

all you have to do is factor it out, and it turns into

(x+2)(x-3)

then turn these so they equal 0

x+2=0, x-3=0

x=-2     x=3

your answer would be B

5: this one is fairly simple too

the formula to completing the square is (b/2)^2

you plug in b, which is 12

12/2=6

6^2=36

you would add 36 to each side.

Answer:

7) {0, -6}

1) 25
