In one football game, a team scored 24 points with a combination of six-point touchdowns, three-point field goals, and one-point "extra points." They made 2 more touchdowns than field goals, and 3 times as many "extra points" as field goals. Let x be the number of touchdowns, y be the number of field goals, and z be the number of "extra points." Write a system of equations that can be solved to find how many touchdowns, field goals, and "extra points" the team made. Do not solve your system.

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

Total score = 24 points

They made 2 more touchdowns than field goals, and 3 times as many "extra points" as field goals.

To find:

The system of equations for the given problem.

Solution:

Let x be the number of touchdowns.

y be the number of field goals.

z be the number of "extra points."

Total score is 24 points. So,

[tex]x+y+z=24[/tex]

They made 2 more touchdowns than field goals.

[tex]x=y+2[/tex]

They made 3 times as many "extra points" as field goals.

[tex]z=3y[/tex]

Therefore, the required system of equation is

[tex]x+y+z=24[/tex]

[tex]x=y+2[/tex]

[tex]z=3y[/tex]

a and b are positive integers and a+b=2009!

what is the amount of ordered pairs of (a, b)?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]2000 \: and \: 9.[/tex]

[tex]it \: could \: be \: the \: sum \: of \: any \: two \: \\ positive \: integers \: so \: they \: are : \\ 2000 \: and \: 9[/tex]

Let's consider a much smaller value and work our way up to the factorial 2009!

Start with a+b = 2. The value 2 is the smallest right hand side possible since a > 0 and b > 0, so a = b = 1 is the smallest a,b possible.

The only solution to a+b = 2 is a = b = 1 as mentioned.

----------

Now move onto a+b = 3. We have two solutions:

a = 1, b = 2

a = 2, b = 1

-----------

Now move onto a+b = 4. We have three solutions

a = 1, b = 3

a = 2, b = 2

a = 3, b = 1

Note how 'a' counts up while b counts down. I have 'a' starting at the smallest value, and b is set to add with 'a', getting to the right hand side.

So 'a' counts up to 3, while b counts down from 3.

We cannot reach 4 since 0 is not allowed for a or b.

-------------

The conjecture is that a+b = k has k-1 positive integer solutions. A simple proof of this is to list out all solutions like so

a = 1, b = k-1

a = 2, b = k-2

a = 3, b = k-3

....

a = k-3, b = 3

a = k-2, b = 2

a = k-1, b = 1

Where k > 2

Going from 1 to k-1 is exactly k-1 items. It's similar to how {1,2,3,..,m} has m different integers in it. Replace m with k-1 and you have the same idea.

This confirms there are k-1 solutions listed above.

The last step is to simply replace k with 2009! and we have 2009! - 1 different ordered pair solutions

Since the factorial 2009! is so massive, it's best to not expand this out using a calculator. Many calculators would produce "overflow", or similar, if you tried to compute the factorial 2009!

Answer:

  B)  x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

You observe that the smaller number of (+1) tokens is 2 of them, found on the right side. Remove 2 (+1) tokens from each side to get ...

  x + 4 = 2x

The smaller number of (x) tokens is 1, found on the left side. Remove 1 (x) token from each side to get ...

  4 = x . . . . . matches choice B

_____

Comment on this approach

In general, this is a decent approach to use for solving any linear equation. You may find that x and number tokens end up on the same side of the equal sign (with 0 on the other side). Then you need to add some number of (-1) tokens to both sides to cancel the ones on the side with x.

At the end, you may need to split the problem evenly into equal parts according to the number of times x appears. (If this had been x+6 = 3x+2, then you would end with 4=2x. Splitting that into two equal parts, each would be 2=x.)

Add 5x to each side

-5x-1+5x= -5x+7+5x

-1 = 7

A bus and a truck leave a gas station at the same time and are headed to the same destination. If the bus traveled 110 miles in 2 hours, and the truck traveled 180 miles in 3 hours, who is on pace to reach the destination first?

Answers

Answer:

The truck is on pace.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find which truck will arrive first, you need to find each vehicle's mph. To get the mph of each vehicle you just need to divide the distance by time.

Bus: 110 (miles) ÷ 2 (hours) = 55 (miles per hour)

Truck: 180 (miles) ÷ 3 (hours) = 60 (miles per hour)

When you do this you can see the mph of the bus is < the mph of the truck.
