A magazine costs $3 and a book cost $7 if you want to spend exactly $45 on reading this month and you need to buy eight magazines how many books can you buy write an equation in standard form modeling the situation then see how many books you can buy let em represent the number of magazines you buy and B represents the number of books you buy.

Answers

Answer:

m = 8 and b = 3 OR m = 15 and b = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the conditions on this problem could be contradictory (they are likely not, but could be)

let m be the number of magazines bought

let b be the number of books, then

3m is the cost of the magazines bought and

7b is the cost of the books bought, since $45 exactly must be spent then

3m + 7b = 45

Let us assume m = 8 and see what happens

3(8)+7b = 45

24+7b=45

7b=21

b=3, this meets the requirements and results in an integer (whole) number of books, if b had ended up as a fraction, then m=8 would have to be wrong and we would have tried m=9 , then 10, 11, 12, up to 15 if necessary until we got a whole number of books.  Notice that 15 magazines and 0 books also works

a map is drawn in the scale of 1:500000. the area of a pond on the actual ground is 100km^2. find the area on the map in square centimetres that represents the pond

Answers

Answer:

2 000 000 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

100 [tex]km^{2}[/tex] = 1 000 000 000 000 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

the scale of 1:500000 means that 1 cm in the map represents 500000 cm in reality

So on the map this pond's area would be

[tex]\frac{1 000 000 000 000}{500000}[/tex] = 2 000 000 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

What is the final elevation if a. A bird starts at 20 m and changes 16m? b. A butterfly starts at 20 m and changes -16m? c. A diver starts at 5 m and changes -16m? d. A whale starts at -9 m and changes 11 m? e. A fish starts at -9 meters and changes -11 meters?

Answers

Answer:

A.36m

C.-11m

D.2m

E.20m

Step-by-step explanation:

Sorry I forgot b

The final elevation of the given animals is as follows 1)Bird = 36m  2) butterfly = 4m 3) diver = -11m below sea level 4) whale = 2m 5) fish= -20 m

What is the rule for summing positive and negative numbers?

To get the sum of a negative and a positive number, use the sign of the larger number and subtract. For example: (–7) + 4 = –3. 6 + (–9) = –3.

Given here,1)  A bird starts at 20 m and changes 16m in a positive direction therefore net elevation is  20 + 16 = 36m

2)  A butterfly starts at 20 m and changes -16m, thus again net elevation is      

20-16 = 4m

3)  A diver starts at 5 m and changes -16m, the net depth of the diver below sea level is 5+(-16) = -11m

4)  A whale starts at -9 m and changes 11 m in the positive direction then net depth is -9+11 = 2m

5) A fish starts at -9 meters and changes -11 meters in the negative direction thus net depth is = 9-11= -20m below sea level

Hence these are the final answers.

Segment AB measures 3 cm. Point O is the center of dilation. How long is the image of AB after a dilation with . . .

Use decimal notation if necessary.



a. scale factor 5?

Answers

Answer:

The image of AB will be 15 cm long after dilation by a scale factor of 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that when an object is dilated by a scale factor, it gets reduced, stretched, or remains the same, depending upon the value of the scale factor.

If the scale factor > 1, the image is enlarged If the scale factor is between 0 and 1, it gets shrunk If the scale factor = 1, the object and the image are congruent

Rule to calculate the mage of the segment AB after dilation of the segment AB by a scale factor 5 centered at the origin

AB = length → A'B'  = 5(length)

It means the length of the image of the segment AB can be determined by multiplying the length of the original segment AB by 5.

so

AB = 3 cm

Thus, the length of image A'B' will be:

A'B' = 5(3) = 15 cm

Therefore, the image of AB will be 15 cm long after dilation by a scale factor of 5.

Hello,

Try to find the area of the brown spots, which filled in as green, would make one big rectangle.

1. Take the whole area of the rectangle (use the area of the brown rectangle around the green, and the area of the brown triangle towards the top left).

The area for the brown rectangle
A = b*h becomes A = 2*3 = 6 ft^2

Area for brown triangle (upper-left) is found by the length of the whole figure shown. The whole length is 12ft at the bottom; at the top, we know 6ft and 2ft. Therefore, the missing measurement there is 12ft - (6ft + 2ft) = 4ft

Area for the triangle (I will include some trigonometry; don’t be afraid to use it!:)
Find the long side of the triangle:
Pythagorean Theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2
which becomes:
3^2 + 4^2 = c^2
9 + 16 = c^2
c^2 = 25
sqrt(c^2) = sqrt(25)
c = 5

Next,
I know there are easier formulas and processes for the following, but they will work.
S (semiperimeter)= 1/2(a+b+c)
Counting up the sides of the triangle, then dividing by two will give you your semiperimeter.

Then,
A= sqrt [(S)(S-a)(S-b)(S-c)] = 6
I believe that the S value and a value are the same because that brown triangle made earlier is a 3-4-5 triangle (the sides).

Finally, now that we know the area of the brown rectangle and the brown triangle, we can subtract them from the big rectangle!
1. The big rectangle: A= b*h becomes A = 12*5 = 60 ft^2
2. Take the 60 ft^2 and set up the following:
60 ft^2 - (6ft^2+6ft^2) = 60ft^2 - 12ft^2 = 48ft^2, as the final answer.

The area of a rectangular outdoor stage has been extended on one side. The entire new area in square meters can be written as 216+12x. Factor the expression to find the dimensions of the extended stage.
PLZ HELP

Answers

Answer:

Dimension of the extended stage is; length = 6 m and width = 2x m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the rectangular outdoor = length x width

New area = area of the outdoor + area of the extended stage

                = 216 + 12x

                = 6(36 + 2x)

New area = 6 (36 + 2x)

So that;

The dimension of the rectangular outdoor = 36 x 6

i.e length = 36 m and width = 6 m

So that the dimension of the extended stage = length x width

                                     = (6 x 2x) m

i.e length = 6 m and width = 2x m

For the first half of the 20th century, poliomyelitis, also known as infantile paralysis, was one of the most dreaded diseases to attack young people. By 1955 American physician and researcher Jonas Salk had developed a vaccine that almost eradicated the disease in the United States and other developed countries.Jonas Edward Salk was born in New York City on October 28, 1914. He graduated from the City College of New York in 1934 and earned his doctorate in medicine from New York University's College of Medicine in 1939. While in medical school he had worked with Thomas Francis Jr. on killed-virus immunology studies. In 1942 he joined a group at the University of Michigan working on a vaccine against influenza. The vaccine was perfected in 1953.In 1947 Salk became associate professor of bacteriology and head of the Virus Research Laboratory at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. There he began working on the polio vaccine. Three viruses caused polio, and a vaccine had to be effective against all of them. By 1952 Salk had developed such a vaccine and conducted field tests on children. His findings were published in 1953, and a mass field test was done the next year.On April 12, 1955, the vaccine was released for use in the United States. In 1957 Salk was named professor of experimental medicine at Pittsburgh, and in 1963 he went to San Diego as head of the Institute (later named the Salk Institute) for Biological Studies. In 1977 Salk was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom. He died on June 23, 1995, in La Jolla, California.Answer the following question based on the Compton's Encyclopedia reading:What was one of the challenges Dr. Salk faced in his attempt to create a polio vaccine? Dr. Salk did not have enough money to pay for his research and supplies. Dr. Salk had to create one vaccine that was effective against three different viruses. Dr. Salk had to convince government officials to allow him to test the vaccine. Dr. Salk's idea for a vaccine was not supported by other scientists and physicians.
