The difference of two numbers is 15.The larger number is 1 more than 3 times the smaller number. Find the two numbers
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2) let the two numbers be x and y
x-y =15
(taking x to be big)
x = 3 (y)+1
i.e. x-3y =1
Subtracting we get
2y =14 or y =7
x =15+7 =22
Larger number is 22 and smaller number is 7

Alysha is 2 years younger than Bryce/
Let Alysha be x years old then Bryce would be x+2
Sum of their ages
=x+x+2 =28
2x+2 =28
2x=26
x=13
Hence Alysha is 13 years old and Bryce 14 years old.

We need to find the equation using two points.
But the trick is that you need to solve for y but not x
So let's solve for y
- x + y = 3
Add x to both sides (Why? because we don't want x, so we need to get it out)
-x + y + x = 3 + x
y = x + 3
That's the correct equation.
They gave us (1,4)(5,8)

[tex]m=\frac{2}{5}[/tex]
case C) The lenght of ZY is [tex]\sqrt{29}[/tex]
The statement is True
we know that
the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to
[tex]d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}[/tex]
we have

The statement is True
Because sides ZW and YX are parallel sides (has the same slope)
Slope ZY
we have
[tex]Z(-3,1),Y(-1,-4)[/tex]
[tex]m=\frac{-4-1}{-1+3}[/tex]

Answers
s-c=mc

m=(s-c)/c
Answer:
[tex]m=\frac{s-c}{c}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The given expression is
[tex]s=c+mc[/tex]
Now, to find the expression for [tex]m[/tex], we just have to isolate it. First, we have to move the term [tex]c[/tex] to the other side of the equation, and then to move the coefficient [tex]c[/tex], which is gonna pass to the other side dividing.
[tex]s=c+mc\\s-c=mc\\\frac{s-c}{c}=m\\m=\frac{s-c}{c}[/tex]
Therefore, the percent markup is defined as the difference between the selling price and cost, divided by that cost.

In forensic science trigonometry can be used to calculate a projectile’s trajectory, to estimate what might have caused a collision in a car accident or how did an object fall down from somewhere, or in which angle was a bullet shot etc.
Electrical engineers also use trigonometry. Modern power companies use alternating current to send electricity over long-distance wires. In an alternating current, the electrical charge regularly reverses direction to deliver power safely and reliably to homes and businesses.
Electrical engineers use trigonometry to model this flow and the change of direction, with the sine function used to model voltage. Every time you flip on a light switch or turn on the television, you’re benefiting from one of trigonometry's many uses.

Find the side of a square whose diagonal is of the given measure.
Given = 8 miles
Answers
To find the side of a square with a given diagonal length, apply the Pythagorean theorem. With a diagonal of 8 miles, the side length is calculated to be 4√2 miles.
Explanation:To find the side of a square whose diagonal is given, we can use the Pythagorean theorem. In a square, the diagonal creates two right-angled triangles, each with the square's sides as the legs.
Let the side of the square be s, and the given diagonal is 8 miles. According to the Pythagorean theorem, the diagonal (d) is calculated as d = √(s² + s²). Simplifying, this becomes d = √(2 * s²) or s = d / √2. Substituting the value of the diagonal, we get s = 8 / √2. To get rid of the radical in the denominator, we can multiply both the numerator and denominator by √2, giving us s = (8√2) / 2, which simplifies to s = 4√2 miles. Therefore, the side of the square is 4√2 miles.

You and 2 friends have a job washing cars. you split the money you make so that you each get the same amount. on the first day, you earn $75. the second day, you earn $84. the third day, you earn $105. how much money will you each get for those 3 days?
Answers
Final answer:
Each friend would receive $88 from the total earnings of $264 over three days, after splitting the amount equally.
Explanation:
The question asks how much money each person would get from a total earning of $75 on the first day, $84 on the second day, and $105 on the third day after splitting it equally among three friends. To find this out, first, we need to calculate the total earnings by adding the amounts from all three days, and then we divide the total by three, since there are three friends.
The total earnings over the three days are $75 + $84 + $105 = $264. To find out how much each person gets, we divide this amount by 3:
$264 ÷ 3 = $88
So, each friend would get $88 for their work over those three days.

Answer:
b. A checking account, or a savings account for other expenses (predictable), and emergencies.
Step-by-step explanation:
Peggy needs to pay car insurance 2 times every year.
She has divided the payment by 6 and saves that amount each month.
So, the best account in which she can save this money is - A checking account, or a savings account.
Other options are irrelevant as a 401-K retirement fund is some other type of account. It is not used for daily or monthly expenses.
Options C and D are also not correct.

At the beginning of a basketball season, the Panthers won 40 games out of 60 games. At this rate, how many games will they win in a normal 110-game season? Round answer to the nearest game.
Answers
Let x be the number of matches they will win out of 110 games, if they keep the same rate. We'll use the rule of three:
40 games ---> 60 games
x games ---> 110 games
x = (110*40) / 60
x = 4400/60
x ≈ 73.33
So the panthers, at this rate, will win 73 games out of 110.
Hope this helps! :)
The Panthers are expected to win approximately 73 games out of 110 based on their current win rate.
To find out how many games the Panthers will win in a normal 110-game season based on their current winning rate from the beginning of the season, we use a simple proportion. Initially, they won 40 games out of 60, which gives us a winning ratio.
The ratio can be written as:
40 wins / 60 games = number of wins / 110 games
To find the number of wins, we cross-multiply and solve for the unknown:
(40 wins / 60 games) * 110 games = number of wins
After the calculation:
40 * 110 / 60 ≈ 73.33
As we need to round to the nearest game, it gives us approximately 73 games out of 110.
A delivery truck travels 21 blocks north, 12 blocks east and 26 blocks south. what is its final displacement from the origin? assume the blocks are equal length.
Answers
The truck's displacements in the North-South and East-West directions are calculated separately. The final displacement is 5 blocks South and 12 blocks East.
Explanation:To solve this problem, we need to consider the truck's displacement in the North-South direction and the East-West direction separately.
Starting with the North-South direction, the truck moves 21 blocks North and then 26 blocks South. Thus, its total displacement in the North-South direction is 21 - 26 = -5 blocks. The negative sign indicates that the truck is 5 blocks South from its starting point.
Considering the East-West direction, the truck moves 12 blocks East. Therefore, its total displacement in the East-West direction is +12 blocks.
Overall, the displacement of the truck from the origin is 5 blocks South and 12 blocks East.

Determine the value of r so that the line through (5, 2) and (7, r) has a slope of m= -1/2
Answers
slope(m) = -1/2
(5,2)...x = 5 and y = 2
sub and find b
2 = -1/2(5) + b
2 = -5/2 + b
2 + 5/2 = b
4/2 + 5/2 = b
9/2 = b
so ur equation for this line is : y = -1/2x + 9/2
y = -1/2x + 9/2......(7,r)....when x = 7
y = -1/2(7) + 9/2
y = -7/2 + 9/2
y = 2/2
y = 1
so ur missing variable is 1......ur set of points would then be (7,1) <=
Final answer:
The value of r that makes the line through (5, 2) and (7, r) have a slope of -1/2 is 1.
Explanation:
To determine the value of r so that the line through the points (5, 2) and (7, r) has a slope of m= -1/2, we use the slope formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). Here, (x1, y1) is (5, 2) and (x2, y2) is (7, r).
Slope calculation:
-1/2 = (r - 2) / (7 - 5)
-1/2 = (r - 2) / 2
Multiplying both sides by 2 to isolate the variable r:
-1 = r - 2
r = 2 - 1
r = 1
Therefore, the value of r that makes the slope -1/2 is 1.
