The sum of two numbers is 14. One number is two less than three times the other. Write an equation to represent the situation
using as a variable.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Number 1 is 4

Number 2 is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Number 1 is x

Number 2 is 3x - 2

so x + (3x - 2) = 14

x + 3x - 2 = 14

4x = 14 + 2

4x = 16

x  = 4

so

Number 1 is 4

Number 2 is 3(4) - 2 = 10

Find the value of x.

Answers

Answer:

28 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two similar triangles.  The ratio of the sides must be in the same proportion

12           8

------- = -------

x-7         14

Using cross products

12 * 14 = 8(x-7)

168 = 8(x-7)

Divide each side by 8

168/8 = 8(x-7)/8

21 = x-7

Add 7 to each side

21+7 = x-7+7

28 = x

The equation will be 3 y = 2 x + 12 for the graph given.

We are given a graph of the equation.

We need to find the equation of the graph.

Now, first we will see the x and y intercept of the graph.

So, we get that:

x intercept:

( - 6 , 0)

y intercept:

(0 , 4)

Now, we know that equation of the line is given by:

y = a x + b    … (1)

Put the points in the equation:

for (-6 , 0)

0 = - 6 a + b

6 a = b     … (2)

for (0 , 4)

4 = b

Put in (2)

6 a = 4

a = 4 / 6

a = 2 / 3

Put in equation (1):

y = 2 / 3 x + 4

y = ( 2 x + 12 ) / 3

3 y = 2 x + 12

Therefore, we get that, the equation will be 3 y = 2 x + 12 for the graph given.

From the given information,

Landon wants to ride his bicycle 36 miles this week and he has already ridden 4 miles.

The average number of miles, m, he would have to ride for 4 more days to meet his goal is

m = (36-  4)/4

This is the equation that can be used to determine m, the average number of miles he would have to ride each day to meet his goal

Now, determine m

m = (36 - 4)/4

m = 32/4

m = 8

Answers

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4x = 18  multiply both sides by 4/3

(4/3)(3/4)x = (18/1) (4/3)

x = 24  There are 24 boys in the class.

2/3x = 24  Multiply both sides by 3/2

(3/2)(2/3)x = (24/1)(3/2)

x = 36

By solving a linear equation , we get the total number of students in the class are 36

What is a linear equation in one variable?

An linear equation is a mathematical statement consists of expressions of only one variable that too with power 1 and constants and  compares two such expressions by equating them.

Standard form of  linear equation in one variable : ax +b = c

x = (c-b)/a

Let the total number of students in the class are  x

Given that 2/3 of the students in a class are boys

∴ The number of boys = 2/3(x) =(2x)/3

Then given that 3/4 of the boys are right handed and there are 18 right-handed boys

3/4( no of boys ) =18

⇒3/4 *(2x/3) =18

⇒(3*2x)/(4*3) =18

⇒x/2 =18

Multiplying both sides by 2

x = 2*18 = 36

Therefore, the total number of students in the class are 36

Simplify using order of operations Show all of your work and do ONE operation at a time to receive all possible points 164-2​

Answers

When all the four operations namely addition, subtraction, multiplication and division are involved in a problem, we perform the operations in the following sequence from left to right i.e. division, multiplication, addition and subtraction, remember the order as DMAS.

Easy and simple way to remember PEMDAS rule!!

P → Parentheses first

E → Exponent (Powers, Square Roots, Cube Roots, etc.)

MD → Multiplication and Division (start from left to right)

AS → Addition and Subtraction (start from left to right)

Note:

(i) Start Multiply/Divide from left side to right side since they perform equally.

(ii) Start Add/Subtract from left side to right side since they perform equally.

For Example; (7 + 8) × 3

First solve inside ‘parentheses’ 7 + 8 = 15, then 15 × 3 = 45.

Next solve the mathematical 'Exponent'.

For Example; 32+ 5

First solve ‘exponent’ part 32= 3 × 3 = 9, then 9 + 5 = 14.

Next, the part of the equation is to calculate 'Multiplication' and 'Division'.

We know that, when division and multiplication follow one another, then their order in that part of the equation is solved from left side to right side.

For Example; 21 ÷ 7 × 12 ÷ 2

‘Multiplication’ and ‘Division’ perform equally, so calculate from left to right side. First solve 21 ÷ 7 = 3, then 3 × 12 = 36, then 36 ÷ 2 = 18.

In the last part of the equation is to calculate 'Addition' and 'Subtraction'. We know that, when addition and subtraction follow one another, then their order in that part of the equation is solved from left side to right side.

For Example; 9 + 11 - 13 + 15

‘Addition’ and ‘Subtraction’ perform equally, so calculate from left to right side. First solve 9 + 11 = 20, then 20 - 13 = 7 and then 7 + 15 = 22.

These are simple rules need to be followed for simplifying or calculating using PEMDAS rule.

What is the value of each logarithm?

b. log₄32

Answers

The answer for the given logarithmic function is 5/2

Logarithm is a mathematical tool used to make high value calculations simple.

It is the exponent to the power of which a number must be raised to give a certain result.

Some of the important formulas in logarithm are:

loga where a is considered as base of the logarithm and b is the argument

is given as nlogab

when base and the argument is same , log is given as 1

logabc where a is the base is given as logab+logc

loga b/c where a is the base is given as logab-logac

Now it is given to us to find the value of log₄32

where 4 is the base and 32 is the argument

We know that logₐb can be written as log₂b/log₂a

using this identity of logarithm,

our question becomes log₂32/log₂4

32 = 2x2x2x2x2 which is

hence  can be written as 2^5

Thus the logarithmic function becomes

log₂2^5/log₂2^2=5log₂2/2log₂2

thus it becomes 5/2

Aa log2/log2 becomes 1

Thus log₄32= 5/2

b(1)=2, b(n)=2⋅b(n−1)−1 for n≥2.

Answers

Based on the given parameters, the explicit rule of the sequence is b(n)= 2^n

How to determine the explicit rule of the sequence?

The given parameters are

b(1) = 2

b(n) = 2 * b(n - 1) for n >= 2

Calculate b(2) and b(3) using the above equation

When n = 2, we have

b(2) = 2 * b(2 - 1)

This gives

b(2) = 2 * b(1)

So, we have

b(2) = 2 * 2

Evaluate

b(2) = 4

When n = 3, we have

b(3) = 2 * b(3 - 1)

This gives

b(3) = 2 * b(2)

So, we have

b(3) = 2 * 4

Evaluate

b(3) = 8

So, the sequence is

2, 4, 8.....

The above sequence is a geometric progression

The common ratio (r) is calculated as

r = b(2)/b(1)

So, we have

r = 4/2

Evaluate

r = 2

The explicit rule of the sequence is calculated as

b(n)= b(1) * r^n-1

So, we have

b(n)= 2 * 2^n-1

Evaluate

b(n)= 2^n

Scientists mixed local bees with African ones to create a bee that would make more honey. They ended up with something much different. The new bees evolved in unexpected ways. They multiplied and migrated north. Africanized honey bees are now known as killer bees for several scary but legitimate reasons.Killer bees are far more aggressive than their relatives. They have been known to attack in great numbers, even when there has been no direct threat on their hives. They have swarmed because of loud noises, dark clothing, bright jewelry, and even strong perfume. They will chase a person for more than a quarter of a mile and remain angered for up to 24 hours.Killer bees are also dangerous because of their sting. While most bees take up to 30 seconds to attack, killer bees sting in just 3 seconds. Their venom is no stronger than a regular bee's, but when one killer bee stings, others follow. With up to 80,000 members in a colony, victims are quickly overwhelmed. So many stings in such a short time can cause allergic reactions. Victims enter a state of shock, lose blood pressure, and in many cases, die.A final reason why "killer" has been added to their name is the unfortunate number of deaths they have caused. Experts estimate that the Africanized honeybee moves at a rate of about 200 miles each year. As the bees claim new territory, they claim new victims as well. More than 1000 people have been stung to death in South and Central America. There have been rising numbers of attacks in Mexico and a handful in the United States. Once a swarm sets sights on a victim, it is very difficult for the victim to escape. Once attacked, it is very difficult to survive.Thankfully, there has been no killer bee invasion as some once predicted. Although there is no need for panic, the threat of the killer bee is real and should be taken seriously. It is good practice to call a professional to remove beehives in your area. If you are stung multiple times by any insect, you should always seek medical attention. You may not be expert enough to tell the difference between a killer bee and a less dangerous one, so be smart.
