2/3 of a number is 20 less than the original number. Find the original number

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original number be x.

According to the question we can write as (2/3)x+20x

On rearranging x−(2/3)x=20

Now taking the L.C.M od 1 and 3 is 3

(3x−2x)/3=20

x/3=20

Again by transposing x=60

So the original number is 60

Answer 2

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

2/3 x = x -20

20 =x -2/3x

1/3 x =20

60 = x.

A 20,000 gallon swimming pool contains 5000 gallons of water when a hose is placed in the pool and begins adding water at a rate of 1250 gallons per hour.



Use the Segment tool to plot a graph representing the volume of water in the pool over time from when the hose is placed in the pool until the pool is full.

Answers

Answer:

The volume of water in the pool over time from when the hose is placed in the pool until the pool is full is defined by the equation  and its graph is given below.

Explanation:

The total capacity of the pool is 20,000 gallon.

It is given that the pool contains 5000 gallons of water when a hose is placed in the pool and begins adding water at a rate of 1250 gallons per hour. So the initial volume of water is 5000.

Let the time is defined by t. So, the volume of water in the pool after time t is defined as,

The capacity of the pool is 20,000 gallon, therefore the maximum value of V(t) is 20,000.

The maximum value of t is 12, since the time is always positive, therefore we can say that,

The below graph representing the volume of water in the pool over time from when the hose is placed in the pool until the pool is full. The initial point is (0,5000) and the other point is (12,20000).

Answer:

the two points will be (0,5000) and (12,20000

Step-by-step explanation:

La altura de una pelota que es lanzada directamente hacia arriba con una velocidad de 40 pies/s esta dada por y=40t -16t2 ¿Cuál es la altura máxima alcanzada por la pelota?

Answers

Explicación paso a paso:

Dada la altura de una pelota que se lanza directamente hacia arriba con una velocidad de 40 pies / modelada por la ecuación y = 40t -16t ^ 2

La pelota alcanzó su altura máxima cuando la velocidad es cero.

La velocidad se expresa como dy / dt

dy / dt = 40 - 2 (16) t

dy / dt = 40 - 32t

A altura máxima, dy / dt = 0

0 = 40-32t

-40 = -32t

t = 40/32

t = 1,25 s

Para obtener la altura máxima alcanzada, sustituirá t = 1.25 en la función modelada de la altura como se muestra;

y = 40t - 16t ^ 2

y = 40 (1,25) - 16 (1,25) ^ 2

y = 50 - 25

y = 25

Por tanto, la altura máxima que alcanza la pelota es de 25 m

Queremos encontrar la altura máxima alcanzada por una pelota que es lanzada hacia arriba. Veremos que la altura máxima es 25 pies.

Encontrando el máximo.

Sabemos que la ecuación de la altura es:

y = 40*t - 16*t^2

Podemos ver que es una parabola con un coeficiente lider (el que multiplica la variable al cuadrado) negativo. Esto sinifica que el maximo esta en el vertice.

Para una parabola general:

a*x^2 + b*x + c

El vertice está en:

x = -b/(2a)

Así que en nuestro caso, el vertice de y = -16*t^2 + 40*t está en:

t = -40/(2*(-16)) = 1.25

Para encontrar la altura maxima evaluamos la ecuación en este valor de t:

y = 40*1.25 - 16*(1.25)^2 = 25

Es decir, la altura máxima es 25 pies.

Misaki cut some wood for a bookcase she is building.She needs to find how many 1/3 ft boards she can make from a 5 ft board.Explain how to model with fraction bars to solve the problem

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Size of board = 5 feets

Size of board to be made = 1/3 feets

Number of 1/3 feets board to be made from 5 feets board :

Total size of board / size of board to be made

5 feets ÷ 1/3 feets

5 feets * 3 / 1 feets

= 15

Hence, number of 1/3 feets board that can be made from 5 feets board = 15

Option B-
Down payment: $1,200
Monthly Payment for 3 years: $85

The purchase of the motorcycle is $3,500, including tax. Based on the info provided in the table, which statement is true?

Option B is better
Option A is better

Answers

Answer:

Option A is better.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will observe both plans one by one to determine which one is better i.e. which one will has less interest to pay.

So,

Option A:

Down Payment: $1,000

Monthly payment for 3 years: $85

The total amount in installments will be:

[tex]=Amount\ per\ month * months\\= 85*36\\=3060[/tex]

The total price of bike will be:

[tex]Total\ price = Downpayment +Installments\\= 1000+3060\\= 4060\\Interest = Total\ price - Purchase \\= 4060-3500\\=560[/tex]

Option B:

Down Payment: $1,200

Monthly payment for 3 years: $85

The total amount in installments will be:

[tex]=Amount\ per\ month * months\\= 85*36\\=3060[/tex]

The total price of bike will be:

[tex]Total\ price = Downpayment +Installments\\= 1200+3060\\= 4260\\Interest = Total\ price - Purchase \\= 4260-3500\\=760[/tex]

We can see that interest in Option A is less than interest in Option B that means Mr. Cardwell will have to pay less amount in Option A.

Hence,

Option A is better.
