The sum of three numbers is 104. The first number is 6 less than the second. The third number is 3 times the second. What are the numbers

Answers

Answer 1
We can write this in math as x+y+z=104, x=y-6, and z=3y

Because we already know what x and z are in terms of y, we can substitute our values for x and z into the first equation. This now looks like (y-6) + y + (3y) = 104. Now we can simplify our equation to find our value for y.

y-6 + y + 3y = 104 simplifies to 5y - 6 = 104, then 5y=110, and finally y=22.

Now that we know our value for y we can find our values for x and z by substituting our value for y into the other two equations.

The second equation x = y-6 can be simplified as x = 22 - 6 and further simplified as x = 16.

The third equation z = 3y can be written as z = 3(22) or z = 66.

Our three numbers are 16, 22, and 66. Hope this helps you!

chase drew the number line below to show -4 + (-3). Is his model accurate? If not, tell what is wrong with his model.

Answers

Chase's model is only accurate if it shows starting at -4 on a number line and moving 3 units left to land at -7. Otherwise, the model requires correction to accurately portray the sum of -4 and -3.

The student's question relates to the operation of adding two negative numbers on a number line. When adding -4 and -3, you start at -4 on the number line and move 3 units to the left because you're adding another negative number. If Chase's model does not show starting at -4 and moving 3 units left to end at -7, then his model is inaccurate. To correct the model, ensure that the number line accurately reflects this movement and resulting position on the number line.

Find three consecutive even integers such that the sum of the least integer and the middle integer is 30 more than the greatest integer

Answers

Let the first integer be represented by: 2k

the second integer by: 2(k+1)

your local gas stations are having a price war during the past seven days they have lowered the price of regular gas by $0.2 each day define a variable then write and solve an equation to find the total change in gas price show your work

Answers

Answer with explanation:

Let x denotes the number of days and y denotes the total change in gas price ( in dollars).

Given : During the past seven days the price of regular gas is decreased by $0.2 each day.

Rate of decrease =$0.2 per day

Then , Total change in gas price = Rate of decrease x Number of days

i.e.[tex]y= 0.2 \times x[/tex]

i.e. [tex]y=0.2x[/tex]         (1)

To find the total change in gas price in 7 days , we put x= 7 in (1) , we get

[tex]y=0.2(7)=1.4[/tex]    

Hence, the total change in gas price in 7 days = $1.4

Answer:

0.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t be the total reduction. Then ...

Answers

2.
2 x 2 x 4 = 16
2 x 4 x 8 = 64
64 / 16 = 4
4 x 1/2 = 2.

There are 2 glasses of full water would be needed to fill the baking pan.

What is an expression?

Mathematical expression is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Given that;

A drinking glass has height of 4 inches ,in a length of 2 inches and 2 inches in width.

And, A baking pan has a width of 4 inches length of 8 inches and a depth of 2 inches.

Now,

The volume of drinking water = 4 x 2 x 2

                                              = 16 inches³

And, The volume of baking pan = 4 x 8 x 2

                                                 = 64 inches³

So, Half depth of baking pan =  64 / 2

                                             = 32 inches³

Here, The volume of drinking water = 16 inches³

Thus, Number of glass of full water would be needed to fill the baking pan = 32 / 16 = 2

Therefore, There are 2 glasses of full water would be needed to fill the baking pan.

The minimum sustained wind speed of a category 1 hurricane is 74 miles per hour. The maximum sustained wind speed is 95 miles per hour. Write an absolute value equation that represents the minimum and maximum speeds. Let V represent the wind speed.

Answers

Final answer:

The absolute value equation that represents the range of a category 1 hurricane's wind speed is |V - 84.5| ≤ 10.5. 84.5 is the average of the range and 10.5 is the difference from the range's center to the end.

Explanation:

The absolute value equation that represents the minimum and maximum sustained wind speeds of a category 1 hurricane can be written as |V - 84.5| ≤ 10.5. Here, V stands for the wind speed. The middle value of 74 and 95 is 84.5 (the average of 74 and 95). And the distance from 84.5 to either end of the range (74 or 95) is 10.5. So, the range of speeds is represented by the absolute difference from the center of the range is less than or equal to 10.5.

Describe the pattern you see when you move from a lesser place-value position to the next greater place-value position.

Answers

The underlying concept applied here is the place values. Each digit of a number holds its own value. The digit increases in value by 10 as it goes from the rightmost to the leftmost digit. Take for example, the number is 111. It contains the same digit of 1. But the ones digit has a value of 1, the tens value has a value of 10, and the hundreds digit has a value of 100. Hence, as you go from the lesser-value digit to the greater-value digit, the value increases by 10.

Is this better? Its all.. There is no book to read it over so its confusing

Answers

Part A)

Focus on the first column where it says "test finds student lying" since it asks "what percentage..were found to be lying". We can ignore the second column completely.

We have 282 people found to be lying based on the test (bottom of the first column). Of this total, 200 have not cheated meaning that the student isn't lying. This is based on the overall premise given at the top that states "All of them denied having cheated"

Simply divide the two values: 200/282 = 0.70921985815602 which rounds to roughly 0.7092 if you round to four decimal places

Now move the decimal over 2 spots to the right to convert to a percentage
0.7092 ---> 70.92%

Answer: 70.92%
==============================================================
Part B)

We'll use the result from part A. Subtract it from 100%

100% - 70.92% = (100 - 70.92)% = 29.08%

Answer: 29.08%

Note: another way to get this answer is to divide the values 82 over 282 to get 82/282 = 0.29078014184398 and we get the same answer roughly (after rounding)
==============================================================
Part C)

Now we focus on the second column only. We have 1718 people total and of this total, 12 have cheated. Since they initially deny cheating but they really did cheat, this is a lie they tell. 

So 12/1718 = 0.0069848661234 which rounds to 0.0070 and that converts to 0.7%

Note: this isn't 7% or 70%, its point 7 percent

A random sample of 50 units is drawn from a production process every half hour. the fraction of nonconforming product manufactured is 0.02. what is the probability that ????̂0.04 if the fraction nonconforming really is 0.02

Answers

Final answer:

The probability that p(hat) < 0.04 if the fraction nonconforming really is 0.02 can be calculated using the normal approximation to the binomial distribution.

Explanation:

To find the probability that p(hat) < 0.04 if the fraction nonconforming really is 0.02, we can use the normal approximation to the binomial distribution.

1. Calculate the mean of the sampling distribution using the formula:

μ = np = 50 * 0.02 = 1

2. Calculate the standard deviation using the formula:

σ = sqrt(npq)


where q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.02 = 0.98

σ = sqrt(50 * 0.02 * 0.98) ≈ 0.99


3. Convert p(hat) to a z-score using the formula:

z = (p(hat) - μ) / σ

z = (0.04 - 1) / 0.99 ≈ -0.96


4. Look up the z-score in the standard normal distribution table to find the corresponding probability.

P(z < -0.96) ≈ 0.166


Therefore, the probability that p(hat) < 0.04 if the fraction nonconforming really is 0.02 is approximately 0.166.

find the value of x so that f( x ) = 7

Answers

The value for x so that f(x) = 7 is at x = -3.

Using the equation of slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), where m is the gradient and b is the constant, we can find the value of x at which f(x) is equal to 7 as follows:

By observation on the graph, when x = 1, y = 3 and when x = 2, y = 2.

3 = m + b...(1)

2 = 2m + b...(2)

we multiply equation (1) by 2 and subtract equation (2) from the result;

6 - 2 = 2m - 2m + 2b - b

4 = b

putting 4 for b in equation (1) gives;

m = -1

Thus we have the equation for f(x) as

f(x) = (-1)x + 4

For f(x) = 7;

-x + 4 = 7

x = 4 - 7

x = -3.

Therefore, for f(x) to be equal to 7, the value of x is equal to -3.

One number exceeds another by 1 the sum of the numbers is 29 what are the numbers

Answers

For this question, we know that the first number is x, and the second number is x+1. Thus x+x+1(sum of the numbers)=29. 2x+1=29. If you do the calculations, you will find out that one number is 14, and the other number is 15. 
To check, you add the numbers together and get 29, their difference is 1.
Thus, it is the correct answer. 

Final answer:

To find the two numbers, we set up two equations, solve for one variable, and find the other. The numbers that satisfy the condition of one exceeding the other by 1 with their sum being 29 are 14 and 15.

Explanation:

The student's question involves finding two numbers where one number exceeds the other by 1 and their sum is 29. To solve this, let's set up a system of equations. We'll call the first number x and the second number y. Based on the question:

x = y + 1 (one number exceeds the other by 1)

x + y = 29 (the sum of the numbers is 29)

Substituting the first equation into the second gives us:

(y + 1) + y = 29

2y + 1 = 29

2y = 28

y = 14

Now that we have the value of y, we can find x:

x = y + 1

x = 14 + 1

x = 15

Therefore, the two numbers are 14 and 15.

Tony says that 4,400 is halfway between 4,000 and 5,000.is he correct?why or why not?

Answers

Final answer:

Tony is not correct. The midway point between 4,000 and 5,000 is found by calculating the average of the two numbers, which is 4,500. Therefore, the halfway point is 4,500, not 4,400.

Explanation:

Tony states that 4,400 is halfway between 4,000 and 5,000. To determine if Tony is correct, we need to find the midpoint between the two numbers. The midpoint can be found by adding the two numbers together and dividing by 2:

(4,000 + 5,000) / 2 = 9,000 / 2 = 4,500.

Therefore, the exact halfway point between 4,000 and 5,000 is 4,500. This means that Tony's assertion that 4,400 is halfway between these two numbers is not correct; the correct halfway point is actually 4,500.

Final answer:

No, Tony is not correct. Halfway between 4,000 and 5,000 would be the average of the two numbers, which is 4,500.

Explanation:

No, Tony is not correct. Halfway between 4,000 and 5,000 would be the average of the two numbers. To find the average, we add the two numbers together and divide by 2. In this case, the average of 4,000 and 5,000 would be (4,000 + 5,000) / 2 = 9,000 / 2 = 4,500. Therefore, 4,400 is not halfway between 4,000 and 5,000.
