The sum of two numbers is 8. Two times the larger number plus four times the smaller number is 8. Find the numbers.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 12 and -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the larger number is x and the smaller one is y.

In that case the relevant simultaneous equations are:

x + y = 8

2x + 4y = 8

Use substitution to find relative value of y:

x + y = 8

y = 8 - x

Use to solve equation:

2x + 4y = 8

2x + 4(8 - x) = 8

2x + 32 - 4x = 8

2x  - 4x= 8 - 32

-2x = -24

x = -24 / -2

x = 12

y = 8 - x

= 8 - 12

= -4

In 1-5, given: Two similar cylinders with heights of 8 and 5 respectively.

Answers

Answer:

1. The ratio of their diameters is 8/5 = 8 : 5

2. The ratio of their surface area is (8/5)²

3. The ratio of their volume is (8/5)³

4.The area of the base of the larger cylinder is 128 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the two cylinders are similar, we have;

Two cylinders are similar when the ratio of their heights is equal to the ratio of their radii

Therefore, we have;

1. The ratio of the height of the two cylinders = 8/5 = The radio of their radii = r₁/r₂

The ratio of their diameter = D₁/D₂ = 2·r₁/2·r₂ = r₁/r₂ = 8/5

The ratio of their diameters D₁/D₂ = 8/5 = 8 : 5

2. The surface area of the cylinders = 2·π·r·h + 2·π·r²

Therefore, we have;

(2·π·r₁·h₁ + 2·π·r₁²)/(2·π·r₂·h₂ + 2·π·r₂²) = (r₁·h₁ + r₁²)/(r₂·h₂ + r₂²)

h₁ = h₂ × 8/5

r₁ = r₂ × 8/5

= (8/5)²(r₂·h₂ + r₂²)/(r₂·h₂ + r₂²)  = (8/5)²

The ratio of their surface area = (8/5)²

3. The volume of the cylinder = π·r²·h

∴ The ratio of the volume = (π·r₁²·h₁)/(π·r₂²·h₂) = (8/5)³ × (π·r₂²·h₂)/(π·r₂²·h₂) = (8/5)³

The ratio of their volume = (8/5)³

4. The ratio of the area of the base of the larger cylinder to the area of the base of the smaller cylinder is (8/5)²

Therefore if the area of the base of the smaller cylinder is 50 cm², the area of the base of the larger cylinder = 50 cm² × (8/5)²  = 128 cm²

2. Cosine is adjacent over hypotenuse, so cosine of M would be KM/34, or 30/34

3. Tangent is opposite over adjacent, so tangent of L will be KM/16, or 30/16

4. Sine is opposite over hypotenuse, so sine of M will be 16/34

Lucas is borrowing money to purchase a vehicle. A car dealership will loan Lucas $18,000 with a simple interest rate of 14.5% applied annually, and a 5-year payout plan. The bank will loan Lucas $18,000 with a compound interest rate of 8.9% applied annually and a 4-year payout plan. What is the difference in the total payback amounts?

Answers

Answer:

Difference in total payback = $5734.64

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for the simple interest payout,

Interest = [tex]\frac{P\times r\times t}{100}[/tex]

P = Principal amount of loan

r = rate of interest (Annually)

t = Duration for the payment

Interest = [tex]\frac{18000\times 14.5\times 5}{100}[/tex]

             = $13050

Total payable amount = 18000 + 13050

                                     = $31050

Formula for the amount payable with compound interest,

Final amount = [tex]\text{Initial amount}(1+\frac{r}{n})^t[/tex]

Here, t = Duration of investment

r = rate of interest (Annual)

n = Number of compounding per year

Payable amount = [tex]18000(1+\frac{0.089}{1})^4[/tex]

                           = 18000(1.089)⁴

                           = $25315.36

Difference in total payback = $31050 - $25315.36

                                              = $5734.64

If Lucas takes the 5-year payment plan he will end up paying $31,050. If Lucas takes the 4-year payment plan he will end up playing $24,408. Hope it helps.
