Kate and Nora each have a sum of money. The ratio of the amount of money Kate has to that of Nora is 3 : 5. After Nora gives $150 to Kate, the ratio of the amount of money Kate has to that of Nora becomes 7 : 9. Find the sum of money Kate had initially.

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The ratio of the amount of money Kate has to that of Nora is 3 : 5.

After Nora gives $150 to Kate, the ratio of the amount of money Kate has to that of Nora becomes 7 : 9.

To find:

The sum of money Kate had initially.

Solution:

Let the initial amount of money Kate and Nora have are 3x and 5x respectively.

After Nora gives $150 to Kate, the ratio of the amount of money Kate has to that of Nora becomes 7 : 9.

The amount of Kate = 3x+150

The amount of Nora = 5x-150

Now,

[tex]\dfrac{3x+150}{5x-150}=\dfrac{7}{9}[/tex]

[tex]9(3x+150)=7(5x-150)[/tex]

[tex]27x+1350=35x-1050[/tex]

[tex]1350+1050=35x-27x[/tex]

[tex]2400=8x[/tex]

Divide both sides by 8.

[tex]300=x[/tex]

Putting x=300 in 3x, to get the amount of money Kate has initially.

[tex]3(300)=900[/tex]

Therefore, the Kate initially had $900.

The area of a rectangle is 24 square centimeters and its side lengths are x centimeters and x+ 2 centimeters,
a. Find the side lengths of the rectangle. Justify your answer.
b. Find the perimeter of the rectangle.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

area of rectangle= x ( x +2 ) = 24

X2 + 2X = 24

X 2 +2X _24 = 0

(X +6 ) ( X _4 ) = 0

X= 4

X= - 6.......refused

side length of rectangle is 4 , 6

perimeter= 2( 4+6) = 20 Cm

The side lengths are 4cm , 6cm and perimeter of rectangle is 20cm.

What is perimeter of rectangle?

The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of its four sides. Hence,

Perimeter of Rectangle = 2 (Length + Width) units.

What is area of rectangle?

The area of the space occupied within the perimeter of a rectangle is called the area of a rectangle. It is calculated by finding the product of the length and breadth of the rectangle.

Area of rectangle = Length * Breath

According to the question

Area of a rectangle =  24 square centimeters

Side length  = x+ 2

Side Breath  = x  

Now,

a>  using Formula of Area of rectangle

Area of rectangle = Length * Breath

substituting the value

24 = x * (x+2 )

24 = [tex]x^{2} +2x[/tex]

[tex]x^{2} +2x[/tex] - 24 = 0

[tex]x^{2} + (6-4)x -24 =0[/tex]

(x +6 ) (x-4) = 0

x = -6 , +4

side cannot be negative

Therefore

Breath  of rectangle (x) = 4 cm

Length of rectangle (x+2) = 6 cm

b> Perimeter of the rectangle  = 2 (Length + Breath) units.

substituting the value

Perimeter of the rectangle  = 2 ( 4 + 6 )  

                                               = 20 cm

Hence, The side lengths are 4cm , 6cm and perimeter of rectangle is 20cm.

Answer:  A) infinite solutions

Explanation:

Despite there only being one line shown, there are actually two lines here. One just happens to be directly on top of the other.

We can see this by noting that 2y = 3x-1 turns into 4y = 6x-2 when we multiply both sides by 2. Multiplying both sides by the same number keeps the same equation, so that's why we have identical graphs.

The two identical graphs intersect each other infinitely many times, leading to infinitely many solutions. All solutions are (x,y) points on the blue line. Two such solutions are (1,1) and (3,4). All solutions are of the form [tex]\left(x, \frac{3x-1}{2}\right)[/tex]

What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (5, 3) and (-3,-1)?

Answers

Answer:

y=1/2x+1/2

m=1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find the equation for a line that passes through the two points:

(5,3) and (-3,-1).

First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:

y = mx+b

Where:

m is the slope, and

b is the y-intercept

First, let's find what m is, the slope of the line...

The slope of a line is a measure of how fast the line "goes up" or "goes down". A large slope means the line goes up or down really fast (a very steep line). Small slopes means the line isn't very steep. A slope of zero means the line has no steepness at all; it is perfectly horizontal.

For lines like these, the slope is always defined as "the change in y over the change in x" or, in equation form:

So what we need now are the two points you gave that the line passes through. Let's call the first point you gave, (5,3), point #1, so the x and y numbers given will be called x1 and y1. Or, x1=5 and y1=3.

Also, let's call the second point you gave, (-3,-1), point #2, so the x and y numbers here will be called x2 and y2. Or, x2=-3 and y2=-1.

Now, just plug the numbers into the formula for m above, like this:

m=

-1 - 3 over

-3 - 5

or...

m=

-4 over

-8

or...

m=1/2

So, we have the first piece to finding the equation of this line, and we can fill it into y=mx+b like this:

y=1/2x+b

Now, what about b, the y-intercept?

To find b, think about what your (x,y) points mean:

(5,3). When x of the line is 5, y of the line must be 3.

(-3,-1). When x of the line is -3, y of the line must be -1.

Because you said the line passes through each one of these two points, right?

Now, look at our line's equation so far: y=1/2x+b. b is what we want, the 1/2 is already set and x and y are just two "free variables" sitting there. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that specfically passes through the two points (5,3) and (-3,-1).

So, why not plug in for x and y from one of our (x,y) points that we know the line passes through? This will allow us to solve for b for the particular line that passes through the two points you gave!.

You can use either (x,y) point you want..the answer will be the same:

(5,3). y=mx+b or 3=1/2 × 5+b, or solving for b: b=3-(1/2)(5). b=1/2.

(-3,-1). y=mx+b or -1=1/2 × -3+b, or solving for b: b=-1-(1/2)(-3). b=1/2.

See! In both cases we got the same value for b. And this completes our problem.

The equation of the line that passes through the points

(5,3) and (-3,-1)

is

y=1/2x+1/2

A baseball bat factory produces 24,000 bats per day and uses 50 boxes for packing the bats. If the number of boxes needed for packing is proportional to the number of bats produced, how many boxes would be needed on a day when 36,000 bats are produced?

Mrs. aviles is planning a fruit-cup party for a class of 18 students and two teachers. She spends $10 for a package of snacks and also takes orders in advance for fruit cups that cost $3 each.

1. describe the domain of the function both in words and numbers?
2. what is the range?

Answers

Answer:

domain is x = 3

Thus domain means that for every fruit cup costs $3

Range is f(20) = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Total students for the fruit cup party = 18

Total teachers for the fruit cup party = 2

Cost of each fruit cup =$ 3

Delivery charge = $ 10

Now, the total number of people attending the party = Total number of students + Total number of teachers

Thus;

Total number of people attending party = 18 + 2 = 20

Since cost of each fruit cup is $3.

Thus, for 20 fruit cups, the function is;

f(x) = 20x where x is cost of each fruit cup.

It means the cost of 20 fruit cups = $3 × 20 = $60

Thus, domain is x = 3

Thus domain means that for every fruit cup costs $3

Range is f(20) = 60

find the domain of the following equations and solve them​

Answers

Answer:

Domain → x > 0

Solution → x = 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is,

[tex]x^{0.5\text{logx}}=0.01x^2[/tex]

Since, log of any number 'x' is defined when x > 0

Therefore, domain of the equation → x > 0

By taking log on both the sides of the equation,

[tex]\text{log}(x^{0.5\text{logx}})=\text{log}(0.01x^2)[/tex]

0.5(logx)(logx) = log(0.01) + log(x²)

0.5(logx)²= -2 + 2log(x)

Let log(x) = a

Then the equation becomes as,

0.5a² = -2 + 2a

0.5a² - 2a + 2 = 0

a² - 4a + 4 = 0

(a - 2)² = 0

a = 2

Since, a = log(x)

log(x) = 2

x = 10²

x = 100

Therefore, solution of the given equation is x = 100.

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\boxed{\pink{\tt \leadsto The \ domain \ of \ x \ is \ (0,\infty ). }}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A equation is given to us and need to find the domain of the equation . So , given equation is ,

[tex]\bf\implies x^{0.5\:log\ x } = 0.01x^2 [/tex]

Now , let's simplify this equation to find the domain of x .

[tex]\bf\implies x^{0.5\:log\ x } = 0.01x^2 \\\\\bf\implies x^{0.5\:log\ x } -0.01x^2 =0 \\\\\bf \implies x^{log \:x^{\frac{1}{2}}} - 0.01x^2=0 \\\\\bf\implies x^{log \ \sqrt{x}} - 0.01x^2=0 [/tex]

Now set the argument in log( √x) Greater than or equal to zero to see where the expression is defined. Since the value of log is non - negative.

[tex]\bf\implies \sqrt{x} > 0 \\\\\bf\implies (\sqrt{x})^2>0^2 \\\\\bf\implies x>0\\\\\bf\implies \boxed{\red{\bf x \in ( 0, \infty ) }}[/tex]

In set builder Notation we can write as ,

[tex]\boxed{\red{\bf \{ x | x > 0 \} }}[/tex]

Hence the domain of x is ( 0 , ) .
