Keith bought 4 new baseball trading cards to add to his collection. The next day his dog at half of his collection. There is now 25 cards left. How many cards did Keith start with?

Answers

Answer 1
Keith started with 42 cards.
Answer 2

Answer:

46 cards

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a variable to represent the starting amount of cards: (x)

Keith bought 4 new cards: (+4)

His dog ate half of the collection: (x/2)

There are now 25 cards: (=25)

So we can use this expression to find the starting amount: (x+4)/2=25

Start by multiplying both sides by 2 to get rid of the (x/2).

Now subtract 4 from both sides to get rid of the (+4).

Finally, we know x= 46

Thus, Keith started with 46 cards.

How many cubes with side lengths of 1/3 does it take to fill the prism

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

along the side with 1 cm we can fit 3 cubes, as 3×1/3 = 1.

along the side with 2 2/3 cm we can fit 8 cubes :

2 2/3 = 6/3 + 2/3 = 8/3.

and 8/3 / 1/3 = 8/3 × 3/1 = 3×8 / 3×1 = 8

and the height is 2/3 cm, so we can put 2 layers of cubes on top of each other.

so, we have

3 × 8 × 2 = 48

48 cubes are needed to fill the prism.

A car traveling at 48 mph overtakes a cyclist who is riding at 16mph had a 3 hour head start how far from the starting point does the car overtake the cyclist?

Answers

The car overtakes the cyclist at a distance of 72 miles from the starting point.

,Speed is the ratio of distance travelled to time taken. It is given by:

Speed = distance / time

Let the car overtake the cyclist at distance d and time t.

For the car:

48 = d / t

d = 48t

For the cyclist:

16 = d / (t + 3)

d = 16t + 48

48t = 16t + 48

32t = 48

t = 1.5 hours

d = 48(1.5) = 72 miles

The car overtakes the cyclist at a distance of 72 miles from the starting point.

Every week Jim runs 8 miles and bikes 12 miles. Write an ordered pair to represent how many miles Jim runs and bikes in 5 weeks. Use the drop-down menus to complete the sentence. Jim runs Choose... miles and bikes Choose... miles in 5 weeks. The ordered pair would be Choose... .

Answers

The ordered pair to represent how many miles Jim runs and bikes in 5 weeks is (3.33, 5)

Writing an ordered pair to represent how many miles Jim runs and bikes in 5 weeks.

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

Every week Jim runs 8 miles and bikes 12 miles.

This means that we have the ratio

Run : Bike = 8 miles : 12 miles

When he bikes for 5 weeks, we have

Run : 5 weeks = 8 miles : 12 miles

This gives

Run/5 weeks = 8/12

So, we have

Run = 5 weeks * 8/12

Evaluate the products

Run =  3.33 weeks

Hence, the number of weeks is 3.33 and the ordered pair is (3.33, 5)

Elijah was six times as old as his son. In twelve years he will be twice as old as his son. How old are they now

Answers

To solve this, we need to turn this word problem into a system of linear equations. To do this, let's use x to stand for Mr. Fontana's age, and y to stand for his son's age.

The first sentence states that eight years ago, Mr. Fontana was six times as old as his son.

eight years ago = x - 8

Fontana was six times as old as his son = 6(y - 8). Remember, we need subtract 8 from his son's age, which is why I wrote it as 6(y - 8), and his father was 6 times his son's age 8 years ago, which is why I multiplied 6 by y - 8.

Now, putting this all together gives us our first equation:

x - 8 = 6(y - 8)

We can now rewrite this equation in standard form:

x - 8 = 6y - 48 ----->

x - 6y = -48 + 8 ----->

x - 6y = -40 <----- this is our first linear equation

To find our second, we need to turn the second sentence into an equation. It says that in 12 years, Mr. Fontana will be twice as old as his son:

x + 12 = 2(y + 12)

Now, we need to rewrite this equation in standard form:

x + 12 = 2y + 24 ----->

x - 2y = 24 - 12 ----->

x - 2y = 12 <----- this is our second linear equation. We now have our system of equations:

x - 6y = -40

x - 2y = 12

Now we can find the father's age (x) and his son's age (y). First, multiply the second equation by -1, giving us:

x - 6y = -40

-x + 2y = -12

Now we can add both equations together:

x - x - 6y + 2y = -40 + -12 ----->

-4y = -52

Solve for y, by dividing both sides of the equation by -4, giving us:

y = 13

So, now we know the son's age: 13

To find the father's age, replace y in either the first equation or the second equation, with 13. Let's use the first equation:

x - 6(13) = -40 ----->

x - 78 = -40 ----->

x = 78 - 40 ----->

x = 38

Therefore, Mr. Fontana is 38 years old and his son is 13 years old.

Problem #15: A box contains 4 black balls, 7 red balls, and 3 green balls. Three balls are
drawn (without replacement). Find the probability that the balls drawn are red, green,
and black in that order.

Answers

The probability that the balls drawn are red, green, and black in that order will be 3/78.

What will the probability be?

Probability is the occurence of likely events. It is the area of mathematics that deals with numerical estimates of the likelihood that an event will occur or that a statement is true. An event's probability is a number between 0 and 1.

The box contains 4 black balls, 7 red balls, and 3 green balls. The total number will be:

= 4 + 7 + 3

= 14 balls.

The probability that the balls drawn are red, green, and black in that order will be:

= P(red) × P(green) × P(black)

= 7/14 × 3/13 × 4/12

= 1/2 × 3/13 × 1/3

= 3/78

The probability is 3/78.

Find the value of x need help

Answers

Answer:

x=-10

Step-by-step explanation:

since there's a given 120 degrees, and it's a isosceles triangle, we know that the line adds up to 180 (where the 120 degrees is). so 120+x=180, the interior angle measures 60 degrees. That being said, the 3 angles measure 60 degrees also. now there's a right angle mark on top, so we find the angle of the smaller triangle (near angle 2) by doing 90-60=30 degrees.

angle 2 is said to be x+160, and there's a line, which tells us that they must add to 180.. so x+160+30=180

x+190=180

x=-10.
