if someone weighs five times as much as someone else and the total weight of the two people is 132 pounds how much does each person weight

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The heavier person weighs 110 pounds, and the lighter person weighs 22 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the weight of the lighter person be 1 unit.

The weight of the heavier person will be [tex]1\times 5=5u[/tex]

Total weight: [tex]1u+5u=6u[/tex]

6 units = 132

Divide 6:

[tex]1u=\frac{132}{6}[/tex]

[tex]1u=22[/tex]

The weight of the lighter person is 22 pounds.

Weight of the heavier person [tex]= 5\times 22=110[/tex]

The weight of the heavier person is 110 pounds.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

someone= 5x

someone + x= 132

5x + x = 132

6X=132

x=22

One person ("someone") weighs x× 5 = 110.

the other person ("x) weighs x = 22

If: AB= 2x + 6, AC = 51, and BC=6x +5, Find BC.

Answers

Answer:

Assuming A, B, and C are collinear and B is between A and C then BC = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming A, B, and C are collinear and B is beetween A and C

AB + BC  = AC

2x + 6 + 6x + 5 = 51

 8x + 11 = 51

    8x = 40

     x = 5

BC = 6x+5 = 6×5 + 5 = 35

Rearranging Equations: Solve the equation for y: 8x + y = 14 Solve the equation for x: -9x + 3y = 18

Answers

Answer:

y=14-8x

x= -2 + 3y/9x

Step-by-step explanation:

8x+y=14

isolate y so you get:

y=14-8x

-9x+3y=18

isolate x so you get:

-9x=18-3y

divide on both sides to get x by itself

-9x/-9x  18-3y/-9x

x= -2 + 3y/9x

if a =1 + r + 7r and b = 1 -r ,find an expression that equals A+ 3B in standard form. Answer: ​

Answers

Answer:

A+3B=4+5r

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A = 1+r+7r

B = 1-r

We need to find an expression that is equal to A+3B.

Putting the values of A and B in A+3B, we get :

A+3B = 1+r+7r + 3(1-r)

=1+8r+3-3r

=(1+3) +(8r-3r)

=4+5r

Hence, the values of A+3B equals 4+5r.

Answers

Answer:

if there was a 15% discount, then you paid 75% of the original price. Since we don't know the orginal price, we will assign it the variable x. Change 75% to a decimal. The equation would be:

.75x = 208.25 To get the variable by itself, divide each side by .75

.75x/.75= 208.25/.75

x = 277.6

The original price of the suit was $277.6

Fuji apples cost $3.00 per pound, and Golden Delicious apples cost $2.00 per pound. A childcare center purchases 30 pounds of a combination of the two types of apples for a total of $80. A table titled Apples showing Pounds, Cost per Pound and Total. The first row shows Fuji and has 30 minus g, 3, and x. The second row shows Golden Delicious, and has g, 2, and blank. The third row shows Total, and has 30, blank, 80. Which value could replace x in the table?

Answers

Answer:

3(30 - g)

Step-by-step explanation:

# of pounds of Fuji apples = (30 - g)

Cost per pound of Fuji apples = $3 per pound

Total cost of (30 - g) pounds of Fuji apples = 3 * (30 - g)

= 3(30 - g)

Rotating CD 180 degrees around the point D would mean rotating it to the other side of D, in other words, rotating it clockwise. The new line would be D->M->C

Rotating CD 180 degrees around the point E would mean rotating it clockwise till "E" is a point of the line. The new line would be E->M->D.

Rotating CD 180 degrees would keep the line in the same position right now but with CD being in different order. The new line would be D->M->C.

Given that figure JKLMNWWXYZ. Find the value of y

Answers

Answer:

[tex] \boxed{\sf y = 6 \ cm} [/tex]

[tex] \boxed{\sf x = 25 \degree} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that JKLMN [tex] \sim [/tex] VWXYZ

So, from this we can say that:

JK [tex] \sim [/tex] VW & ∠LMN [tex] \sim [/tex] ∠XYZ

i.e.

(2y - 8) cm = 4 cm & 4x° = 5(x - 5)°

Solving for y:

⇒2y - 8 = 4

Adding 8 to both sides:

⇒2y - 8 + 8 = 4 + 8

-8 + 8 = 0:

⇒2y = 4 + 8

4 + 8 = 12:

⇒2y = 12

Dividing both sides by 2:

⇒[tex] \sf \dfrac{2y}{2} = \dfrac{12}{2} [/tex]

[tex] \sf \dfrac{2}{2} = 1: [/tex]

⇒y = [tex] \sf \dfrac{12}{2} [/tex]

[tex] \sf \dfrac{12}{2} = 6: [/tex]

⇒y = 6 cm

Solving for x:

⇒4x° = 5(x - 5)°

Expanding right hand ride expression:

⇒4x° = 5x° - 25°

Adding 25° to both sides:

⇒4x° + 25° = 5x° - 25° + 25°

25° - 25° = 0°:

⇒4x° + 25° = 5x°

⇒5x° = 4x° + 25°

Substracting 4x° from both sides:

⇒5x° - 4x° = 4x° - 4x° + 25°

4x° - 4x° = 0°:

⇒5x° - 4x° = 25°

5x° - 4x° = x°:

⇒x° = 25°

. Joseph tweets 1 3 times a day. Define each variable and write an algebraic expression to describe the number of posts after any given number of days

Answers

Given :

Joseph tweets 13 times a day.

To Find :

An algebraic expression to describe the number of posts after any given number of days.

Solution :

Let, number of tweets after x days are y.

Let, the relationship is , y = mx + c.

For, x = 1

13 = m +c     ...... 1)

x = 2

26 = 2m + c   .......2)

So, m = 13 and c = 0.

Therefore, algebraic expression to describe the number of posts after any given number of days is y = 13x.

Hence, this is the required solution.
