The sum of two numbers is 38. The greater number is 8 more than the other number. Find each number.

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

23 and 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a system of equations where x is the greater number, and y is the smaller number.

x + y = 38

x = y + 8

Solve by substitution, by substituting the second equation into the first one, then solving for y:

x + y = 38

(y + 8) + y = 38

Add like terms and solve for y:

2y + 8 = 38

2y = 30

y = 15

Add 8 to this, to find the greater number:

15 + 8

= 23

So, the numbers are 23 and 15.

Answers

Answer:

A=3, B=4, C=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

So A represents the amplitude, which is the distance between the midline (C), the middle of the graph, and the maximum (or minimum). B is the distance of the period of the graph. In this case, we see that the midline is C=-5 because that is the halfway point of the sine function. We also see that the period distance is B=5-1=4, so our period would be 2π/4 or π/2. Our amplitude would be A=3 because |a|=|-5-(-2)|=|-5+2|=|-3|=3. Observe the graph to see this visually.

Determine the component form of the vector which has a magnitude of 30 & a direction of 116 degrees.

Answers

Given :

Magnitude of vector is 30 units.

Direction of vector from x-axis is 116°.

To Find :

The component form of the vector.

Solution :

We know, vector in component form is given by :

[tex]\vec{v} = (Acos\ \theta) \hat{i} + (Asin\ \theta)\hat{j}[/tex]

Putting given values,

[tex]\vec{v} = (30\times cos\ 116^o) \hat{i} + (30\times sin\ 116^o)\hat{j}\\\\\vec{v} = -13.15 \hat{i} + 0.90 \hat{j}[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.

Can I please have some help with this I am stumped

Answers

Answer:

  29 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

No need to be stumped. The dashed lines divide the figure into three recognizable forms, for which you have area formulas.

The area of a rectangle or parallelogram is given by the formula ...

  A = bh . . . . .  where b represents the base, and h represents the height.

__

The top part of the figure is a square. That is, it is a rectangle with its base equal to its height. In this figure, both are labeled 2 in.

  A = (2 in)(2 in) = 4 in² . . . . . . area of top square

The middle part of the figure is a parallelogram. Its base is the same as the base of the rectangle below it. Its height is labeled 3 in.

  A = (5 in)(3 in) = 15 in² . . . . . . area of middle parallelogram

The bottom part of the figure is a rectangle with a height of 2 in. Its base is the same length we used for the parallelogram: 5 in.

  A = (5 in)(2 in) = 10 in²

The area of the figure is the sum of the areas of its parts:

  figure area = 4 in² + 15 in² + 10 in² = 29 in²

The area of the figure is 29 in².

For the following right triangle, find the side length .

Answers

Answer:

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula a²+b²=c², you can easily find out the hypotenuse of the triangle (which is the long side of it, and is the x in this problem.)

If we substitute the side lengths for the question in a²+b²=c², you'll get

20²+15²=x²

Simplifying the numbers and squaring them, you get

400+225=625²

Since you want the value of the x side, you'll need to root 625.

√625=25

Therefore, x = 25

Answer:

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the side lengths of a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem, a² + b² = c². a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse, the longest side. In this figure, x is the hypotenuse, c.

Plug in our values for a and b and solve for x.

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

[tex]20^2+15^2=c^2[/tex]

[tex]400+225=c^2[/tex]

[tex]625=c^2[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{625}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{c^2}[/tex]

[tex]25=c[/tex]

c, or x is equal to 25. The missing sidelength is 25 units.

Johnny wants to know how many students in his school enjoy watching science programs on TV. He poses this question to all 26 students in his science class and finds that 75% of his classmates enjoy watching science programs on TV. He claims that 75% of the school's student population would be expected to enjoy watching science programs on TV. Is Johnny making a valid inference about this population? (5 points)

a
Yes, it is a valid inference because his classmates make up a random sample of the students in the school

Each Saturday, a store reduces the price of any unsold
item by 10%. If an item was priced at $80, on Saturday
of the first week it is marked down to $72. At the end of
the second week, it drops to $64.80, and at the end of
the third week the price is decreased to $58.32. If this
continues for 10 weeks, what should be the selling
price for an item that was originally priced at $80?

Answers

Answer: $27.89

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the price decreases every week by 10%, its is basically being marked down to 90% of its original value. We can construct an equation for this, where we have our original value, multiply by a modifier, and raise the modifier to a power equal to the number of weeks it is on sale. Since the original price was $80, that will be 80. Since it is 10% off, we will multiply by 0.9, and since its ten weeks, we will raise the 0.9 to the power of 10.

Thus, 80×0.9^10 = 27.89

PLS HELP! find the area and round to the nearest tenth

Given:

A regular hexagon with side 11.5 units and apothem 10 units.

To find:

The area round to the nearest tenth.

Solution:

Area of a regular polygon is:

[tex]A=\dfrac{1}{2}Pa[/tex]           ...(i)

Where, P is the perimeter and a is the apothem.

The given figure is a regular hexagon with six sides. So, the perimeter of the given figure is the product of number of sides and the side length.

[tex]P=6\times 11.5[/tex]

[tex]P=69[/tex]

Putting [tex]P=69,a=10[/tex], we get

[tex]A=\dfrac{1}{2}(69)(10)[/tex]

[tex]A=(69)(5)[/tex]

[tex]A=345 [/tex]

Therefore, the area of the regular polygon is 345.0 square units.
