In a bag,There are red and blue cubes in the ratio 4:7.I add 10 more red cubes to the bag.Now here are red and blue cubes in the ratio 6:7.How many blue cubes are in the bag?

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The ratio of red and blue cubes is 4:7.

After adding 10 more red cubes the ratio of red and blue cubes is 6:7.

To find:

The number of blue cubes.

Solution:

The ratio of red and blue cubes is 4:7.

Let the number of red and blue cubes be 4x and 7x respectively.

After adding 10 more red cubes.

Number of red cubes = 4x+10

Then, the ratio of red and blue cubes is 6:7.

[tex]\dfrac{4x+10}{7x}=\dfrac{6}{7}[/tex]

[tex]7(4x+10)=6(7x)[/tex]

[tex]28x+70=42x[/tex]

[tex]70=42x-28x[/tex]

[tex]70=14x[/tex]

Divide both sides by 14.

[tex]5=x[/tex]

Now,

Number of blue cubes in the bag is

[tex]7(5)=35[/tex]

Therefore, the number of blue cubes is 35.

Answer:

Colin will have to wait for 2 hours for the pond to completely empty

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a Prism

The volume of a prism of base area Ab and height H is computed with the formula:

V=Ab.H

We are given a pond in the shape of a prism with a trapezoidal base (front view).

The area of a trapezoid of bases b1 and b2, and height a, is given by:

[tex]\displaystyle A_b=\frac{b_1+b_2}{2}.a[/tex]

The parallel bases of the trapezoid have measures of b1=0.6 m and b2=1.4 m, and the height is a=2 m, thus the area is:

[tex]\displaystyle A_b=\frac{0.6+1.4}{2}*2[/tex]

[tex]A_b=2\ m^2[/tex]

The height of the prism is H=1m, thus the volume of the pond is:

[tex]V=2\ m^2*1\ m[/tex]

[tex]V=2\ m^3[/tex]

It's also known the level of the pond goes down by 20 cm (0.2 m) in the first 30 minutes. Note at this moment the level is still at the rectangular prism zone of the pond, thus the volume of water is calculated as the area of the face of water by the height it went down:

[tex]V_w=1\ m*2\ m*0.2\ m = 0.4\ m^3[/tex]

The pond still has this volume of water:

[tex]V_p=2\ m^3-0.4\ m^3=1.6\ m^3[/tex]

The pond was drained [tex]0.4\ m^3[/tex] in 30 minutes, thus the rest of the water will be taken out in

[tex]\frac{1.6}{0.4}*30 =120\ min[/tex]

Thus, Colin will have to wait for 2 hours for the pond to completely empty

Part C: Describe the steps to graph the equation obtained above on the coordinate axes. Mention the labels on the axes and the intervals. (4 points)

(10 points)

Answers

Answer:

:)

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: To get an equation into standard form to represent the total amount  rented (y) that Marguerite has to pay for renting the truck for x amount of days, we use the formula for the equation of a straight line.

Remember that the equation of a straight line passing through points is ( x_{1} , y_{1} ) and the points ( x_{2} , y_{2} ) is given by

y - y_{1} / x - x_{1} = y - y_{2} / x - x_{2}

Knowing that Marguerite rented a truck at $125 for 2 days, we know if she rents the exact same truck for 5 days, she has to pay a total of $275 for the rent.

This means that the line modeling this situation crosses points at (2, 125) and (5, 275).

The equation modeling the total rent (y) that Marguerite has to pay for renting the truck for x days is given by

y - 125 / x - 2 = 275 - 125 / 5 - 2 = 150 / 3 = 50

But if you are writing the equation in standard form it would be  

50x - y = -25

Part B:

When writing the function using function notation it means you are making y the subject of the formula and then replacing the y with f(x).

If you remember that from part A, we have that the equation for the total rent which is y that Marguerite has to pay for renting the truck for x amount of days is given by

y = 50x + 25.

Writing the equation using the function notation would give us this

f(x) = 50x + 25

Part C:

To graph the function, we name the x-axis the number of days and name the y-axis total rent. The x-axis is numbered using the intervals of 1 while the y-axis is numbered using the intervals of 50.

The points of (2,125) and of (5,275) are marked on the coordinate axis and a straight line is drawn to pass through these two points.

Three dressers are placed side by side. One dresser is 3 feet 9 inches wide, another is 3 feet 3 inches wide, and the third is 5 feet 11 inches wide. How wide are they combined? Write your answer in feet and inches. Use a number less than for inches

Answer:

12 feet 11 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the above question, we would have to add up all the width of thee dressers together.

Hence:

3 feet 9 inches + 3 feet 3 inches + 5 feet 11 inches

= (3 feet + 3 feet + 5 feet) + (9 inches + 3 inches + 11 inches)

= 11 feet +( 23 inches)

Note that

12 inches = 1 feet

Hence:

11 feet (23 inches/12 inches)

11 feet (1 feet + 11 inches)

= 12 feet 11 inches.

Therefore, the width of the 3 dressers combined = 12 feet 11 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

[tex]H = -16t^2 + 84t + 100[/tex] ...(1)

We need to find the maximum height

For maximum height, put dH/dt = 0

[tex]\dfrac{d(-16t^2 + 84t + 100)}{dt}=0\\\\-32t+84=0\\\\t=\dfrac{84}{32}\\\\t=2.625\ s[/tex]

Put t = 2.625 in equation (1)

[tex]H = -16(2.625)^2 + 84(2.625) + 100\\\\=210.25\ \text{units}[/tex]

Hence, the maximum height [tex]=210.25\ \text{units}[/tex]

Transform the quadratic function defined by y=ax2+bx+c into the form y=a(x-h)2+k 1.Y=x2-6x-3 2.Y=5x2-20x-5

Answers

Answer:

1) y = (x-3)²-12

2) y = 5(x-2)²-9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic expressions

y=x²-6x-3

We are to transform it in the form y=ax²+bx+c

y=(x²-6x)-3

Complete the square of the expression in parenthesis

y = (x²-6x + (6/2)² - (6/2)²)-3

y = (x²-6x+3²-3²)-3

y = (x²-6x+9-9)-3

y = (x²-6x+9)-12

y = (x²-3x-3x+9)-12

y = x(x-3)-3(x-3)-12

y = (x-3)(x-3)-12

y = (x-3)²-12

Hence the transformation is y = (x-3)²-12 where a = 1 and k = -12

For the quadratic equation

y=(5x²-20x)-5

y = 5(x²-4x)- 5

Complete the square of the expression in parenthesis

y = 5(x²-4x+4-4)- 5

y = 5(x²-4x+4)-9

y = 5(x-2)²-9

Hence the transformation is y = 5(x-2)²-9 where a = 5 and k = -9

Which THREE pairs of measurements are possible side lengths for a 30-60-90 triangle?

1. AB+4, BC = 4√3
2. 2√3, AC = 2
3. AB = 3, AC = 3√3
4. BC = 10, AC = 4√3
5. AB = 7, AC = 14
6. AB = 11, BC = 11√3

Answers

Answer:

1, 5 and 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of this triangles has lengths in the ratio x : √3x : 2x where 2x is the hypotenuse.

When C = 30,  the side AB is the small leg  (=x).

When B = 90, the hypotenuse is  AC ( =2x).

When A =  60, the larger leg is BC (=√3x).

1.  AB = 4, BC = 4√3 :- Are possible legs.

5 AB = 7, AC = 14. :-  AB = small leg, AC = hypotenuse.

6. AB = 11, BC = 11√3:-   AB = small, BC = larger leg.

What is an expression?

An expression is a way of writing a statement with more than two variables or numbers with operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Example: 2 + 3x + 4y = 7 is an expression.

We have,

George bought 2 identical couches and 3 identical chairs.

A couch costs twice as much as a chair.

Let the cost of one couch = 2x

Let the cost of one chair = x

Now,

He spent $270 more on the couches than on the chairs.

This means that,

2(2x) = 270 + 3x

4x = 270 + 3x

Subtract x on both sides.

x = 270

The total spending.

= 4x + 3x

= 4 x 270 + 3 x 270

= 1080 + 810

= $1890

Thus,

The total spending is $1890

If a factory can produce 250 desks in 5 days, how many desks will it produce in 15 days?

Answers

Answer:

750 would be ur answer

Step-by-step explanation:

happy new year!

Answer:750 desks

Step-by-step explanation: I would start by setting up an equation. 5d=250 (d means days). Then, to isolate the d, I would divide both sides of the equation by 5. I would get d=50. So there are 50 desks made daily. To find out the number of desks made in 15 days, I would just multiply both sides of the equation d=50 by 15 and I would get 15d=750. That means, there are 750 desks produced in 15 days. I hope this helps you out a bit!

Using the formula

The number of correct questions = 70% of 90

                                                         = [70/100] × 90

                                                          = 0.7 × 90
