The sum of the numbers X, Y, and Z is 40. The ratio of X to Y is 1:2 and the ratio of Y to X is 2:5. What is the value of Y?​

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since X : Y = 1 : 2, X = 0.5Y.

Since Y : Z = 2 : 5, Z = 2.5Y.

We have X + Y + Z = 4Y = 40. Hence Y = 10.

Answer 2

[tex]y=10[/tex]

Ratio:A ratio in mathematics shows how many times one number is contained in another. For instance, if a dish of the fruit contains eight oranges and six lemons, the ratio of oranges to lemons is eight to six (that is, 8:6, which is equivalent to the ratio of 4:3). The ratio of oranges to the overall amount of fruit is 8:14, and the ratio of lemons to oranges is 6:8 (or 3:4)  (or 4:7).A ratio can have any number of quantities, such as counts of people or things or measurements of length, weight, time, etc. Both numbers must be positive in most situations.Solution -

Given -

[tex]x+y+z=40\\x:y=1:2\\y:x=2:5[/tex]

To find - [tex]y[/tex]

Since,

[tex]x:y=1:2,x=0.5y\\y:x=2:5,z=2.5y\\x+y+z=4y+40\\y=10[/tex]

Therefore, [tex]y=10[/tex].

In the diagram mz3= x+ 30 and mz4 =2x-80. What is the measure of angle 3?

Answers

Given:

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

[tex]m\angle 3=(x+30)^\circ[/tex] and [tex]m\angle 4=(2x-80)^\circ[/tex].

To find:

The measure of angle 3.

Solution:

From the below figure it is clear that, angle 3 and angle 4 are vertically opposite angles.

We know that, vertically opposite angles are always equal. So,

[tex]m\angle 3=m\angle 4[/tex]

[tex](x+30)^\circ=(2x-80)^\circ[/tex]

[tex]x+30=2x-80[/tex]

[tex]x-2x=-30-80[/tex]

[tex]-x=-110[/tex]

[tex]x=110[/tex]

Now,

[tex]m\angle 3=(110+30)^\circ[/tex]

[tex]m\angle 3=140^\circ[/tex]

Therefore, the measure of angle 3 is 140 degrees.

the equation is 7x-3 over 9 > 8-2x

Answers

Answer:

solving the inequality we get [tex]\mathbf{x\geq 3}[/tex]

The graph is attached below.

Option C is correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the inequality [tex]\frac{7x-3}{9}\geq 8-2x[/tex]

First we will solve the inequality to find value of x

Solving:

[tex]\frac{7x-3}{9}\geq 8-2x[/tex]

Step 1: Multiply both sides by 9

[tex]9(\frac{7x-3}{9})\geq 9(8-2x)\\7x-3\geq 72-18x[/tex]

Step 2: Adding 3 on both sides

[tex]7x-3+3\geq 72-18x+3\\7x\geq 75x-18x[/tex]

Step 3: Add 18x on both sides

[tex]7x+18x\geq 75-+18x\\25x\geq 75[/tex]

Step 4: Divide both sides by 25

[tex]\frac{25x}{25}\geq \frac{75}{25}\\x\geq 3[/tex]

So, solving the inequality we get [tex]\mathbf{x\geq 3}[/tex]

The graph is attached below.

Option C is correct option.

Solution:

We know that, in a right angled triangle,

[tex]\sin \theta =\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]

[tex]\sin 60^\circ =\dfrac{x}{16}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} =\dfrac{x}{16}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 16.

[tex]\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\times 16=\dfrac{x}{16}\times 16[/tex]

[tex]8\sqrt{3}=x[/tex]

And,

[tex]\cos \theta =\dfrac{Base}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]

[tex]\cos 60^\circ =\dfrac{y}{16}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{y}{16}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 16.

[tex]\dfrac{16}{2}=y[/tex]

[tex]8=y[/tex]

Therefore, the missing side lengths are [tex]x=8\sqrt{3}[/tex] and [tex]y=8[/tex].

A rectangle is located on a coordinate plane. If the ordered pair (t, u) represents a vertex of this rectangle, which algebraic representation describes the effect of translating the rectangle 8 units up and 3 units left?

Answers

Answer: (t,u) -> (t-3, u+8)

Step-by-step explanation: Up is the y value and left is the x value.

In the point ( t,u) t is the x value and u is the y value.

Moving to the left, you subtract the value and moving up you add the value.

The answer would be (t, u) → (-t – 3, u + 8)

Seven less than 4 times the square of a number is 18. Find the two numbers.

Answers

The two numbers of seven less than 4 times the square of a number is 18 are -5/2 and 5/2

Let the unknown number be "x"

The square of an unknown number is expressed as x²

4 times the square of a number  is 4x²

Seven less than 4 times the square of a number is 4x² - 7

If the resulting expression is 18, this will be expressed as 4x² - 7 = 18

Solving the resulting expression

[tex]4x^2-7=18\\4x^2= 18+7\\4x^2=25\\x^2=\frac{25}{4}\\x=\pm \frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Hence the two numbers of seven less than 4 times the square of a number is 18 are -5/2 and 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

A number that is exactly halfway between 1 and 27 is the middle number

In other words, we want to find the median between 1 and 27

Median = (x + y) / 2

Let

x = 1

y = 27

Median = (x + y) / 2

= (1 + 27) / 2

= 28/2

= 14

Therefore, the number between 1 and 27 is 14

Two vertical angles have measures of (4x + 8) and (7x -22). What is the measure of the two angles?

Answers

Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical angles are congruent

7x - 22 = 4x + 8     {Add 22 to both sides}

         7x = 4x + 8 + 22

        7x = 4x + 30         { subtract 4x from both sides}

7x - 4x = 30

         3x = 30

           x = 30/3

x = 10

4x + 8 = 4*10 + 8

          = 40 + 8

          = 48

7x - 22 = 7*10 - 22

            = 70 - 22

            = 48

The vertices of an ellipse are (0,-1) and (8,-1). The endpoints of the minor axis are (4,1) and (4,-3). Write the equation of the ellipse in general form

Answers

Answer:

x^2+4y^2-8x+8y+4=0

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of the given ellipse is x² +4y² - 8x + 8y + 4 = 0.

What is an ellipse?

An ellipse can be defined as a shape that looks like an oval circle.

The equation of an ellipse is

[tex]\dfrac{\left(x - h\right)^{2}}{a^{2}} + \dfrac{\left(y - k\right)^{2}}{b^{2}} = 1[/tex]

Where (h, k) is the center a and b are the lengths of the semi-major and the semi-minor axes.

The vertices of an ellipse are (0,-1) and (8,-1).

The endpoints of the minor axis are (4,1) and (4,-3).

The following equations take into account the different properties of an ellipse:

[tex]k = -1k=−1, h^{2} = a^{2}h 2 =a 2 , \left(h - 8\right)^{2} = a^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{cases} b = 2 \\ k = -1 \\ h^{2} = a^{2} \\ \left(h - 8\right)^{2} = a^{2} \end{cases}[/tex]

We get that h = 4 k = -1, a = 4, and  b = 2

The standard form of the given ellipse is

[tex]\dfrac{\left(x - 4\right)^{2}}{4^{2}} + \dfrac{\left(y + 1\right)^{2}}{2^{2}} = 1[/tex]

So the general form will be as : x² +4y² - 8x + 8y + 4 = 0.

Thus, the general form of the given ellipse is x² +4y² - 8x + 8y + 4 = 0.

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use Pythagorean theorem which is [tex]a^2 + b^2 = c^2[/tex]

a = 12

b = 16

and c would be x.

12^2 + 16^2 = c^2

144 + 256 = c^2

400 = c^2

square root

c = 20 or x = 20

The length of a rectangle is 6 cm more than twice its width. The sum of the length and width is 24 cm What are the dimensions of the rectangle?
Enter your answers in the box.

Answers

Answer:

width:6, length:18

Step-by-step explanation:

You can subsititue width with x.

The length would then be 2x+6.

The value of width and length combined is 24.

The equation would be (2x+6)+(x)=24

Simplify to 3x+6=24

Subtract 6 from both sides giving 3x=18

Simplify to x=6

There's the width. Now you can substitute to find the length.

(6x2)+6=18
