Sandy cut a 151-centimeter board into five pieces. The three shortest pieces are the same length and the two longer pieces are each three centimeters longer than a short piece. How long is each piece?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The short piece is 29.6 cm long and 32.6 cm long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = length of short pieces , y = lengthof longer pieces.

y=x+3      (i)

As per given,        

3x+2y=151               (ii)

Substitute value of y from (i) in (ii), we get

[tex]3x+2(x+3)=151\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3x+2x+3=151\\\\\Rightarrow\ 5x=148\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{148}{5}=29.6[/tex]

Put value of in (i), we get

y=29.6+3= 32.6

Hence, the short piece is 29.6 cm long and 32.6 cm long.

Given 11 and 6, which of the following could not be the third side of the triangle?

Answers

Answer:

      Any, that is greater than 5 and less than 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Given three sides of triangle: a, b and c, and a<c and b<c, then the triangle exist only if  a+b>c

therefore:

if a = 11 and b = 6 and c = ??

then:  11 + 6 > c

            c < 17

if a = 6 and c = 11 and b = ?? {or b=6 and a=??}

then:  6 + b > 11  {subtract 6 from both sides}

            b > 5

Start by changing your minus signs to plus negatives.

So change the -6 to plus a negative 6

and change the -7x to plus a negative 7z.

Now combine like terms → your "z" terms and your numbers.

So -4z + -7x is -11z and -6 + 3 is -3.

Answers

A. all of the answers are correct when you plug in these values

The solution of the linear equations will be (1, 1, 2). Then the correct option is A.

What is the solution to the equation?

The distribution of weights to the variables involved that establishes the equilibrium in the calculation is referred to as a result.

The equations are given below.

2x - y - z = -1        ...1

3x + y - z = 2       ...2

x + y - 5z = -8      ...3

Add equations 1 and 2, then we have

5x - 2z = 1       ...4

Add equations 1 and 3, then we have

3x - 6z = -9     ...5

From equations 4 and 5, then we have

15x - 3x = 12

12x = 12

x = 1

From equation 4, then we have

5(1) - 2z = 1

2z = 4

z = 2

From equation 1, then we have

2(1) - y - 2 = -1

y = 1

The solution of the linear equations will be (1, 1, 2). Then the correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

Function [tex]f(x)= \frac{(x^2 - 5x + 6)}{(x - 4)}[/tex]

Generally we divide the numerator by the denominator mathematically

  [tex]y=x-4\sqrt{x^2-5x+6}[/tex]

Therefore the asymptote is given as

Ben deosites 4580 in an account that earns 6% apr compounded weekly. What is the ending balance after 2 years

Answers

Given:

Principal value = 4580

Rate of interest = 6% apr compounded weekly

To find:

The total amount after 2 years.

Solution:

The formula for amount is

[tex]A=P\left(1+\dfrac{r}{100n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]

Where, P is principal, r is rate of interest, n is number of times interest compounded in an year and t is number of years.

1 year = 52 week

n=52

Putting P=4580, r=6, n=52, t=2 in the above formula, we get

[tex]A=4580\left(1+\dfrac{6}{100(52)}\right)^{52\times 2}[/tex]

[tex]A=4580\left(1+\dfrac{6}{5200}\right)^{104}[/tex]

[tex]A=4580\left(1+\dfrac{3}{2600}\right)^{104}[/tex]

[tex]A=4580\left(\dfrac{2603}{2600}\right)^{104}[/tex]

On further simplification, we get

[tex]A=4580(1.1274188)[/tex]

[tex]A=5163.5781[/tex]

[tex]A\approx 5163.58[/tex]

Therefore, the ending balance after 2 years is 5163.58.
