A proportional relationship exists between x and y. When x=8 the value of y is 14.

(a) Write an equation for y in terms of x.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Equation of y in terms of x is: [tex]y = \frac{7}{4}x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion means that the change in one quantity causes change in other quantity.

Given that A proportional relationship exists between x and y.

It can be expressed mathematically as:

y ∝ x

When the proportionality symbol is removed, constant of proportionality is introduced which is usually denoted as k

[tex]y = kx[/tex]

Given that y=14 when x=8

Putting in equation

[tex]14 = k * 8\\k =\frac{14}{8}\\k = \frac{7}{4}[/tex]

Putting the value of k in equation

[tex]y = \frac{7}{4}x[/tex]

Hence,

Equation of y in terms of x is: [tex]y = \frac{7}{4}x[/tex]

The centroid cuts each median into two segments. The shorter segment is _ _ _ _ the length of the entire segment.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

One third

The centroid of a triangle divides each median.

The shorter segment is 1/3 and the length of the entire segment is 1

The centroid of a triangle divides the median in the following ratio

[tex]\mathbf{Ratio = 2 : 1}[/tex]

The fraction of the shorter segment is:

[tex]\mathbf{Short = \frac{1}{1 + 2}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Short = \frac{1}{3}}[/tex]

Hence, the shorter segment is 1/3, while the entire segment is 1.

The length of a rectangle is three times the width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 72 cm. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Answers

Answer: length=27, width 9

Step-by-step explanation: To solve this problem, you should set up an equation. The length is 3x, and the width is x. To find the perimeter of a triangle, you do length times two + width times two. So 6x+2x=72. 8x=72, x=9. Length is 27, width is 9.

Answer:

Length: 27cm

Width: 9cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the length of the rectangle is 3 times the width, we can assume the    width=x and the length=3x.

      P=72cm

     Perimeter= 3x+3x+x+x

Set the 2 equations equal to each other

   72=3x+3x+x+x

Solve for x

   72=8x

   9=x

Length=3x

   Length=9(3)

   Length=27

Width=x

   Width=9

Muriel says she has written a system of two linear equations that has an infinite number of solutions. One of the equations of the system is 3y = 2x – 9. Which could be the other equation?
2y = x – 4.5
y = x – 3
6y = 6x – 27
y = x – 4.5

Answers

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation: If you divide the 3 Y to get Y by itself, you will divide 3 on both sides. So 2X/3=2X/3 and -9/3=-3

So it will be Y=2X/3-3

A freight train traveling along a certain route uses 12 units of fuel per mile plus an additional 2.2 units of fuel per mile for each railcar on the train. Let N represent the number of railcars on the train. What is an expression for f(N), the total number of units of fuel used per mile? find f(12). How many railcars does the train have if f(N)=34?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]38.4\ \text{units of fuel/mile}[/tex]

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]N[/tex] represent the number of rail cars on the train

Each rail car adds 2.2 units of fuel per mile.

Fixed fuel consumption is 12 units of fuel per mile

The function of fuel consumption per mile is

[tex]f(N)=12+2.2 N[/tex]

when

[tex]N=12[/tex]

[tex]f(12)=12+2.2\times 12\\\Rightarrow f(12)=38.4\ \text{units/mile}[/tex]

[tex]\boldsymbol{f(12)=38.4\ \text{units/mile}}[/tex]

[tex]f(N)=34\\\Rightarrow 12+2.2N=34\\\Rightarrow N=\dfrac{34-12}{2.2}\\\Rightarrow N=10[/tex]

So, the number of rail cars when [tex]f(N)=34[/tex] is 10.

Philip's rectangular deck is 5 yards wide. The ratio of the width to the length is 4 to 5. What is the approximate length of Philip's deck in feet? Hint: 1 yard = 3 feet.

Answers

Answer:

18.75 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

we find the length of Philip's rectangular deck in yards

The ratio of the width to the length is 4 to 5.

Philip's rectangular deck is 5 yards wide.

Hence,

Hence:

4/5 = 5/x

Cross Multiply

4x = 5 × 5

4x = 25

x = 25/4

x = 6.25 yards

The length of Philip's field = 6.25 yards

Hint: 1 yard = 3 feet.

Converting the yard to feet

1 yard = 3 feet

6.25 yards = x

Cross Multiply

x = 6.25 × 3 feet

x = 18.75 feet

Therefore, the length of Philip's field in feet = 18.75 feet

Jack bought 500 shares in Glastonbury Goods at $17.85 per share on January 18, 2015. On January 25, 2017, he sold 300 shares after its price had dropped to $15.25 per share. He bought 250 more shares on January 31, 2017 when the price had fallen to $11.90 a share. He sold all of his stock at $18.00 per share on February 5, 2017. How much of a profit/loss did Jack make over the course of his investment? ____________________ profit or loss

Answers

Answer:

$775 profit

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know how much profit or loss Jack made;

he sold 300 shares at $15.25

Amount lost on this will be;

(17.85-15.25) * 300 = -$780

The number of shares he sold at $18 will be the 250 he bought now, and the 200 left unsold before

So profit now will be;

200(18-17.85) + 250(18-11.9)

= $30 + $1525 = $1555

So he made $1555 and lost $780

The amount of profit made is $1555-$780 = $775

Randy, Sandy and Todd are my cousins and their combined age is 87 years. Randy is four times as old as Sandy, but Todd is actually 15 years older than Sandy. How old are each of my cousins

Answers

Answer:

Randy is 48 years old

Sandy is 12 years old

Todd is 27 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent their ages with the first letters of their names:

[tex]R + S + T = 87[/tex]

[tex]R = 4 * S[/tex]

[tex]T = 15 + S[/tex]

Required

Determine their individual ages

We'll solve the above equations using substitution method of simultaneous equations

Substitute 15 + S for T and 4 * S for R in [tex]R + S + T = 87[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]4 * S + S + 15 + S = 87[/tex]

[tex]4 S + S + 15 + S = 87[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]4 S + S + S = 87 - 15[/tex]

[tex]6S = 72[/tex]

Divide through by 6

[tex]S = 72/6[/tex]

[tex]S = 12[/tex]

This implies that Sandy is 12 years old

Substitute 12 for S in [tex]R = 4 * S[/tex] and  [tex]T = 15 + S[/tex]

[tex]R = 4 * 12[/tex]

[tex]R = 48[/tex]

[tex]T = 15 + 12[/tex]

[tex]T = 27[/tex]

This implies that Randy is 48 years old and Todd is 27

[tex] x = 18 [/tex]

[tex] y = 7.5 [/tex]

[tex] z = 7 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

✍️[tex] (8x - 7) + (3x - 11) = 180 [/tex] (consecutive interior angles are supplementary)

Solve for x

[tex] 8x - 7 + 3x - 11 = 180 [/tex]

Add like terms

[tex] 11x - 18 = 180 [/tex]

Add 18 to both sides

[tex] 11x = 180 + 18 [/tex]

[tex] 11x = 198 [/tex]

Divide both sides by 11

✅[tex] x = 18 [/tex]

✍️[tex] (2y + 23) = (4y + 8) [/tex] (alternate interior angles are congruent)

Solve for y

[tex] 2y + 23 = 4y + 8 [/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex] 23 - 8 = 4y - 2y [/tex]

[tex] 15 = 2y [/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

✅y = 7.5

✍️[tex] (2y + 23) + (3z^2 - 5) = 180 [/tex] (linear pair angles)

Plug in the value of y

[tex] (2(7.5) + 23) + (3z^2 - 5) = 180 [/tex]

[tex] (15 + 23) + (3z^2 - 5) = 180 [/tex]

[tex] 38 + 3z^2 - 5 = 180 [/tex]

Add like terms

[tex] 3z^2 + 33 = 180 [/tex]

Subtract 33 from each side

[tex] 3z^2 = 180 - 33 [/tex]

[tex] 3z^2 = 147 [/tex]

Divide both sides by 3

[tex] z^2 = \frac{147}{3} [/tex]

[tex] z^2 = 49 [/tex]

Square both sides

[tex] \sqrt{z^2} = \sqrt{49} [/tex]

[tex] z = 7 [/tex]
