Matt bought some boards to build a wooden deck. Some of the boards were 4 ft long and some of the boards were 5 ft long. He bought 35 ft of boards altogether. How many boards altogether did Matt buy?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

8 boards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since he bought a few of each length. The only combination that works is when he bought 5 of the 4 ft long board so 4×5=20. Than he bought 3 of the 5ft boards 3×5=15. 20+15=35 ft worth of boards.

Answer 2

Matt brought total 8 boards out of which the 5 boards are of 4ft and 3 boards are of 5ft.

We have a guy named Matt who bought some boards to build a wooden deck. Some of the boards were 4 ft long and some of the boards were 5 ft long. He bought 35 ft of boards altogether.

We have to find out how many boards he bought all together.

What do you mean by the solution of a equation ?

The solution of an equation is the value at which the left hand side and right hand side of the equation equals to each other.

In the question, it is given that there are 4ft long and 5ft long boards and matt brought 35 ft of board all together.

Let us assume that the number of 4 ft boards he bought are = x and the number of 5ft boards be y, then according to question -

4x + 5y = 35

[tex]y = \frac{-4x + 35}{5} \\y=\frac{-4x}{5} + 7[/tex]

Now, all the points that lie on this line are the possible answers but the number of boards cannot be in decimal. Hence, the solution x = 5 and y=3, which will give us 4 x 5 + 5 x 3 which is equal to 35.

Hence, Matt brought 5 boards of 4ft and 3 boards of 5ft.

Sam was building a suspension bridge for the playground at an elementary school and needed some chain link and rope.He bought a total of 80 feet of materials. The chain link cost $2.00 per foot, and the rope cost $1.50 per foot. He spent a total of $135. How much of eacb did he buy?

Answers

Answer:

30 feet of chain link and 50 feet of rope

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the amount of chain link as x and the amount of rope as y. We can write:

x + y = 80 -- Equation 1

2x + 1.5y = 135 -- Equation 2

2x + 2y = 160 -- Equation 3 (Multiply Equation 1 by 2)

0.5y = 25 (Subtract Equation 2 from Equation 3)

y = 50 (Divide by 2)

x + 50 = 80 (Substitute y = 50 into Equation 1)

x = 30 (Subtract 50)

Quadrilaterals ABCD and EFGH are similar. If the perimeter of the quadrilateral ABCD is equal to 4y² what is the perimeter of the quadrilateral EFGH?

Answers

Answer:

Can't be determined.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the fact that the quadrilaterals are similar:

Corresponding sides are in proportion and

Corresponding angles are congruent.

We can't create a proportion, so there's nothing else that we can determine.

Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar figures have the same size but not necessarily the same size.

The respective sides will be in the same ratio in a similar figure.

So from the information given you can't say what the measure of the perimeter of quadrilateral EFGH is. All you can say is the ratio of the perimeters is the same as the ratio of the respective sides. If the ratio is 1:2 for example then the perimeter of EFGH is 2*4y^2 = 8y^2.

Onsider two concentric circles, one with radius r1 and the second with radius r2, where r1>r2. Suppose a line t is tangent to the circle with radius r1. How many points are in the intersection of t and the circle with radius r2

Step-by-step explanation:

A tangent line is a line that touches the circle's circumference at only one point.

Given two concentric circles one with radius [tex]r_1[/tex] and the second with radius [tex]r_2[/tex], and [tex]r_1>r_2[/tex]. SInce [tex]r_2[/tex] is inside the smaller circle, there is no way it would intersect with the tangent line t.

In the triangles, HG = MP and GK = PN. Triangles H G K and M P N are shown. Side H K has a length of 15 millimeters. Side M N has a length of 11 millimeters. Sides H G and M P are congruent. Sides G K and P N are congruent. Which statement about the sides and angles is true?

Answers

Answer:

m∠G > m∠P

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

HG = MP and GK = PN., Side H K has a length of 15 millimeters. Side M N has a length of 11 millimeters.

The triangle law for unequal sides states that if two sides are unequal. the angle opposite the longer side is greater than the angle opposite the shorter side. Since side HK has a length of 15 millimeters and Side MN has a length of 11 millimeters, the angle opposite side HK (which is m∠G) is greater than the angle opposite side MN (which is m∠P). That is m∠G > m∠P.

Answer:

Ratio of George age to Carl's age to Alex age = 1 : 12 : 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of Alex = A years

Age of George = G years

And age of Carl = C years

"Alex is 12 years older than George"

A = G + 12 ------(1)

"Carl is 3 times older than Alex"

C = 3A

C = 3(G + 12)

C = 3G + 36 ------(2)

"Sum of their ages is 68 years"

A + G + C = 68 ------(3)

By substituting the values of A and G in equation (3)

G + 12 + G + 3G + 36 = 68

5G + 48 = 68

5G = 20

G = 4 years

From equation (1),

A = 4 + 12 = 16 years

From equation

C = 3(4) + 36

C = 12 + 36

C = 48 years

Ratio of their ages = G : C : A

                               = 4 : 48 : 16

                               = 1 : 12 : 4

Hasty generalization fallacy

Step-by-step explanation:

Fallacy can be said to be a reasoning which leads to the wrong interpretation of a statement or an argument. Although some people intentionally make fallacious statements just to score cheap points or to please the listening audience, but some make fallacious unknowingly, either due to carelessness or by being lackadaisical.

In this case the writer, without enough investigation and proof, comes to a very hasty conclusion that "all doctors are the same". This is termed a hasty conclusion because the writer only had dealings with just two docotors(Dr. Ames and Dr. Collins). So saying all doctors are the same just because of two instance is a rather rash statement.

Therefore, the fallacy commited by the writer here is a fallacy of hasty generalization.

Hasty generalization fallacy occurs when someone has a limited information on a population but makes a conclusion based on a larger population than he/she should.

A) Integers Rational because whole number has to be positive whole number.

Rational numbers are terminating or  repeating real numbers. Whereas, irrational numbers are the complement of rational number with real number being the universal set. These numbers are non terminating non repeating real number.

Integers are a subset of rational number. These are numbers not in fraction or decimal, or say with a denominator 1.

Whole numbers are subsets of integers which are positive, or say integers greater than equal to 1.

Given number : -32.

Since, the number is terminating, it is rational.

Then, the equation of the sphere would be

If f(x)=8-10x and g(x)=5x+4, what is he value of (fg)(-2)

Answers

Answer:

168

Step-by-step explanation:

We would like to multiply these two expressions together and then substitute -2 in for x to solve.

f(x) * g(x) = (8 - 10x) * (5x + 4)

We will use FOIL (first, outer, inner last):

(8 - 10x) * (5x + 4) = 8 * 5x + 8 * 4 + (-10x) * 5x + (-10x) * 4

Combining terms, we get:

f(x) * g(x) = 32 - 50x²

Plug -2 in for x:

32 - 50 * (-2)² = 32 - 50 * 4 = 32 - 200 = -168

The answer is thus 168.

A train leaves Miami at 3:00 PM. A second train leaves the same city in the same direction at 8:00 PM. The second train travels 145 mph faster than the first. Of the second train overtakes the first at 10:00 PM, what is the speed of each of the two trains

Answers

Answer:

The first train travels at 58 mph and the second train travels at 203 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first train left Miami at 3:00 PM.

The second train left Miami at 8:00 PM.

Let the speed of the first train be x.

The second train travels 145 mph faster than the first, that is 145 + x

The second train overtakes the first at 10:00 PM

This means that at 10:00 PM, they were both at the same location.

That is 7 hours after the first train left and 2 hours after the second train left.

Speed is given as:

s = d / t

where d = distance traveled and t = time taken

For the first train, after 7 hours traveling at speed x:

x = d / 7

=> d = 7x _______(1)

For the second train, after 2 hours, traveling at speed 145 + x:

145 + x= d / 2

=> d = 290 + 2x ____(2)

Equating (1) and (2):

7x = 290 + 2x

=> 7x - 2x = 290

5x = 290

=> x = 290/5 = 58 mph

Therefore, the first train travels at 58 mph and the second train travels at 203 mph (58 + 145)
