Sam and Mary collect marbles. “If you give me 5 marbles I’ll have twice as many as you.” said Sam to Mary.
“But if you give me 4 marbles wwe would have the same number said Mary to Sam.
How many marbles do they have altogether?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

54 marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is a word problem leading to a simultaneous equation

Let 'x' represent the initial number of marbles with Sam, and let 'y' represent the initial number of marbles with Mary,

If Mary gives Sam 5 marbles, we have;

x + 5 = 2 × (y - 5)...(1)

If Sam gives Mary 4 marbles, we get;

x - 4 = y + 4...(2)

From equation (1), we get;

x + 5 = 2 × (y - 5) = 2·y - 10

x = 2·y - 10 - 5 = 2·y - 15

x = 2·y - 15...(3)

From equation (2), we have;

x - 4 = y + 4

∴ x = y + 4 + 4 = y + 8

x = y + 8...(4)

Equating the two values of 'x' in equation (3), and equation (4), we get;

2·y - 15 = y + 8

2·y - y = 8 + 15 = 23

∴ y = 23

From equation (4), we get;

x = y + 8 = 23 + 8 = 31

x = 31

The total number of marbles they have altogether = x + y

However, x + y = 23 + 31 = 54

Therefore;

The total number of marbles they have altogether = 54 marbles.

The seventh grade wants to break last year's record of 78 coats collected for the annual clothing drive. They have already collected 13 coats.

Which number line represents the graph of the solution to the inequality that represents the number of coats, c, that the seventh grade must still collect?

Answers

Answer:

The last number line or D.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the remaining coats to be collected, subtract the coats that are collected from the total of coats needed.

So:

78 - 13= 65

They must collect a total of 65 and more to break the last year's record of 78 coats. Number line D, represents the solution of this inequality.

Given that y is directly proportional to x. If y = 30 and x= 5, write an equation that connects y with x.

Answers

Answer: y = 6x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a direct proportion, we will introduce the constant of proportionality here and this will be:

y = kx

Since y = 30 and x= 5,

30 = 5 × k

30 = 5k

k = 30/5

k = 6

Therefore, the equation that connects y to x will be:

y = kx

y = 6x

The equation that connects y to x is y = 6x.

If the area of a circle is 36 pi, what is it's circumference?

Answers

Answer:

C = 12π or 37.7

Step-by-step explanation:

A = πr²

36π = πr²

π's get divided out and you are left with:

r² = 36

if you take the square root of 'r' it will equal the square root of 36, which is 6

C = 2πr

C = 2π(6)

C = 12π or 37.7

Answer

the answer is 12*sqrt pi

C) The axis of symmetry is x = −1.5 and the vertex is (−1.5, 8.25).
D) The axis of symmetry is x = 0 and the vertex is (0, 6).

Answers

Answer:

C) The axis of symmetry is x = −1.5 and the vertex is (−1.5, 8.25).

Step-by-step explanation:

The axis of symmetry is x = − b/2a

= -(-3) / 2(-1)

= 3/(-2)

= -1.5

the vertex => x = -1.5

y= -(-1.5)²-3(-1.5)+6 =

Step-by-step explanation:

4x=6y=6 mean

4x= 6 and 6y= 6 so, 6-6=0 i.e

4x - 6y = 0 say equation ....1

and given

2x + 5y = 11 say equation ....2

to solve by eliminating methods,

multiply equation....2 by 2 and subtract from ....1

i.e

4x - 6y =0

4x + 10y= 22

0+ (-)16y = - 22

y = -22/-16

y = 11/ 8

Answers

Answer:

The number of units sell is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

selling cost of one unit = $ 0.9

Monthly expense = $ 0.9

Manufacturing cost = $ 0.3

Let the number of unit sell is x.

So,

0.9 x = 0.9 + 0.3 x

0.6 x = 0.9

x = 1.5

So, the number of units sell to get no loss is 2.

Given:

The equation of a line is:

[tex]y=-\dfrac{5}{7}x+2[/tex]

A line passes through the point (-5,-3) and perpendicular to the given line.

To find:

The equation of the line.

Solution:

Slope intercept form of a line is:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]                 ...(i)

Where, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

We have,

[tex]y=-\dfrac{5}{7}x+2[/tex]          ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]m=-\dfrac{5}{7}[/tex]

We know that the product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is always -1.

[tex]m_1\times m_2=-1[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{5}{7}\times m_2=-1[/tex]

[tex]m_2=\dfrac{7}{5}[/tex]

Slope of the required line is [tex]\dfrac{7}{5}[/tex] and it passes through the point (-5,-3). So, the equation of the line is:

[tex]y-y_1=m_2(x-x_1)[/tex]

[tex]y-(-3)=\dfrac{7}{5}(x-(-5))[/tex]

[tex]y+3=\dfrac{7}{5}(x+5)[/tex]

Using distributive property, we get

[tex]y+3=\dfrac{7}{5}(x)+\dfrac{7}{5}(5)[/tex]

[tex]y+3=\dfrac{7}{5}x+7[/tex]

[tex]y=\dfrac{7}{5}x+7-3[/tex]

[tex]y=\dfrac{7}{5}x+4[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of the line is [tex]y=\dfrac{7}{5}x+4[/tex]. Hence, option A is correct.

Ifthe fish commission states that the mean length of all fish in spring run is mean =15cm,withthe standard deviation of variance=4cm,what will be the probability that a fish is caught in spring run :between 15cm&19cm?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

z(lower) = (15-15)/4 = 0

z(upper) = (19-15)/4= 1

z  at  0 = .5

z at  1 = 0.841344746

(look these up in a Z table)

probability "between" = 0.841344746 - .5 = 0.3841344746

0.384 is the probability that a fish is caught in spring run between 15cm and 19cm

What is Statistics?

Statistics is the discipline that concerns the collection, organization, analysis, interpretation, and presentation of data.

Given that  fish commission states that the mean length of all fish in spring run is mean =15cm

the standard deviation of variance=4cm,

We need to find  the probability that a fish is caught in spring run :between 15cm and 19cm

The z score formula is z=x-µ/σ

z(lower) = (15-15)/4 = 0

z(upper) = (19-15)/4= 1

From the table of z values we get

z  at  0 is 0.5

z at  1 is 0.841344746

probability between 0.841344746 -0 .5 is 0.3841344746

Hence, 0.384 is the probability that a fish is caught in spring run between 15cm and 19cm
