If x + y = 12 and x = 2y, then x=

Answers

Answer 1

The value of x is equal to 8.

Given the following equation;

[tex]x + y = 12[/tex]  .....equation 1

[tex]x = 2y[/tex]       .....equation 2

To find the value of x, we would solve the system of equations by using the substitution method to determine the value of y;

Substituting eqn 2 into eqn 1, we have;

[tex]2y + y = 12[/tex]

[tex]3y = 12\\\\y = \frac{12}{3}[/tex]

y = 4

Next, we would solve for the value of x;

From equation 2;

[tex]x = 2y\\\\x = 2(4)[/tex]

x = 8

Therefore, the value of x is equal to 8.

What is linear Equation?

When graphed, a linear equation always produces a straight line because it is an algebraic equation with each term having an exponent of 1. It is referred to as a "linear equation" for this reason.

One-variable linear equations and two-variable linear equations exist.

Given

points on free throws = 1

points on 4 free throws = 4x1 = 4

and  points on 2 three point shot = 2x3 = 6

total points are 4 + 6 = 10

and if she made x free throws then points are = 1x

and for y three point shots = 3y

total points for x free and y three point shots

x + 3y

Hence the points are 10 and x + 3y.

Eva took a taxi from her house to the airport. The taxi company charged a pick-up fee of $3.20 plus $3 per mile. The total fare was $33.20, not including the tip

Answers

Answer: 10 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

You can set this up as an equation where x will represent the number of miles charged. So if we know how much the pick up fee is, how much it is per mile and the total charge we can set up the equation as follows:

3.20 + 3x = 33.20

If we solve for x we will find out how many miles she traveled. So to do so we need to get x on one side and the other numbers on the other side of the equal sign. So to begin we'll subtract 3.20 from both sides:

3x = 30.00

and then divide both sides by 3:

x = 10

So she traveled 10 miles.

The Taxi ride was 10 miles.

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

We can set an equation where x will represent the number of miles charged. So, the total charge we can set up the equation as follows:

3.20 + 3x = 33.20

If we solve for x we will find out the miles she traveled.

Then subtract 3.20 from both sides:

3x = 30.00

then divide both sides by 3;

x = 10

Therefore, she traveled 10 miles.

Lucas borrows $3,500 at 2% for 6 years. How much does he have to repay at the end of the loan total?

Answers

Answer:

$3941.57.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Principal,P = $3,500

rate of interest,r = 2%

Time, n = 6 years

Now, the total amount Luca has to repay is:

[tex]A = P(1+\frac{r}{100})^n[/tex]

A is the total amount.

[tex]A = 3500\times (1+\frac{2}{100})^6\\A = $3941.57[/tex]

Hence, the total money he has to repay is $3941.57.

A 22.5 cm straw fits diagonally inside an 18 cm high can of soft drink what is the radius of the can

Answers

Answer:

6.75cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The straw fits diagonally inside the can so it makes a right angled triangle with height and base of the can ( which is the diameter of the can)

So, hypotenuse = length of straw = 22.5cm

perpendicular = 18cm

base = diameter of can(d)

Using pythagoras theorem

h² = p² + b²

(22.5)² = 18² + d²

506.25 = 324 + d²

d² = 506.25 - 324

d² = 182.25

d = 13.5cm

Now radius = d/2 = 13.5/2 = 6.75cm

One of the legs of a right triangle measures 6 cm and its hypotenuse measures 10 cm. Find the measure of the other leg. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

let base = 6cm

perpendicular =x cm

hypotenuse =10cm

by using Pythagoras law

hypotenuse ²=perpendicular ²+base²

10²=x²+6²

100-36=x²

x=√64=8cm

the measure of the other leg is 8cm

The measure of the other leg of the right triangle is equal to 8 cm.

Let the other leg of the right triangle be the opposite side.

Given the following data:

Adjacent = 6 cmHypotenuse = 10 cm

To find the measure of the other leg, we would apply Pythagorean's theorem:

Mathematically, Pythagorean's theorem is given by the formula;

[tex]Hypotenuse^2 = opposite^2 + adjacent^2[/tex]

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]10^2 = opposite^2+6^2\\\\100= opposite^2+36\\\\Opposite^2=100-36\\\\Opposite^2=64\\\\Opposite=\sqrt{64}[/tex]

Opposite = 8 cm

The angles would be supplementary

45 + 5x + 35 = 180

5x + 80 = 180

5x = 100

x = 20

To find out why they are supplementary, refer to the transversal below

∠3 = ∠7 (corresponding angles)

∠8 = 180 - ∠7 (supplementary angles)

And since ∠7 = ∠3...

∠8 = 180 - ∠3 which is why (in the problem) those two angles are supplementary (adding to 180 degrees)

An architect is making a plan for a new circular playground. If the playground needs to be surrounded by a fence and the diameter of the playground is 25 meters, how much fencing needs to go up?

Answers

Answer:

78.54 m

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain how much circular fence, we obtain the Circumference of the circular playground.

The Circumference of a circle, C = 2*pi*r

pi = 3.14 ; r = diameter / 2 = 25 /2 = 12.5 m

C = 2 * 3.14 * 12.5

C = 78.539816

Hence, the fencing which need to go up is ;
