the sum of two numbers is 21, the second number is 6 times more than the first on what are the 2 numbers

Answers

Answer 1
You have two unknown numbers.

Let’s call the first number ‘x’.
The second number is “6 times” more than (the first number) ‘x’.
—> 6 multiplied by ‘x’ = 6x
… thus your second number is ‘6x’.


They say that **both** numbers add to give 21.
—> Therefore you must form an equation.
(First number) + (second number) = 21
Therefore the equation is:
x + 6x = 21


Now solve it like any other maths equation:
7x = 21
(Divide both sides by 7)
x = 3

So we know ‘x’ which means we can work out both numbers now.
First number = x = 3
Second number = 6x = 6 (multiplied by) 3 = 18

So those are your two numbers —> 3, 18.

There are 60 books that are either hardcover or softcover. The hardcover books each weigh 26 ounces. The softcover books each weigh 12 ounces. The books weigh 1,056 ounces in all

Answers

The number of hardcover books is 24 and the number of the softcover book is 36.

Here we have to find the number of hardcover and softcover.

Here it is given that 60 books are there.

Let x be the number of hardcovers, so the number of software books is 60- x.

The weight of each hardcover is 26 ounces and of softcover is 12 ounces.

The total weight is 1056 ounces.

So we get:

26x + ( 60 -x) 12 = 1056

26x - 12x + 720 = 1056

14x = 336

x = 24

60-x = 60 -24 = 36

Therefore the number of hardcovers is 24 and the number of softcovers is 36.

Answers

The cold water faucet will fill the tub on its own in 5.6 minutes.

Let us assume the time taken by cold water faucet to fill the tub be x minutes. Now, the rate of hot water faucet to fill the tub = 1/14

Combined rate of filling by both faucets = 1/4

Rate of filling by hot water faucet + Rate of filling by cold water faucet = Rate of filling of tub by combination of two faucets

1/14 + 1/x = 1/4

1/x = 1/4 - 1/14

1/x = (14 - 4)/(4×14)

1/x = 10/56

Question B: During what interval(s) of the domain is the baseball’s height staying the same?

(btw I have to write the question)

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

what does it mean for an object to stay at the same height ?

come on, you cannot tell me you don't understand this.

it means that e.g. the object is at a certain height (e.g. 50 ft above the ground) at the beginning of a time interval. then 1 seconds later it is still at the same height. 1 seconds after that it is still at this height. and so on.

how do you think that shows on a chart that displays height on an up or down scale ? as a flat (horizontal) line.

the chart is simply a rough picture of what the object does in real life.

so, where do we have flat (horizontal) segments in the curve ?

between second 2 and second 6.

and then infinitely after second 12.

in interval notation

[2, 6] and [12, +infinity)

please note the round bracket on the infinity side. it means the indicated end of the interval is not included. that is, because infinity is just a concept and not a number. it can never be reached. and it is therefore not included in the interval itself.

FYI - the flat line between second 2 and second 6 is not possible in real life, unless it rolls on a flat surface or something is holding it steady in place for these 4 seconds.

but a flying ball can never have a pure flat curve regarding height. only when it comes at rest on the ground. gravity would not allow that. not even for a bullet shot by a gun.

An online furniture store sells chairs for $200 each and tables for $600 each. Every day, the store can ship no more than 40 pieces of furniture and must sell no less than $12000 worth of chairs and tables. If xx represents the number of tables sold and yy represents the number of chairs sold, write and solve a system of inequalities graphically and determine one possible solution.

Answers

If the minimum 30 chairs were sold , then the minimum number of Tables sold is 10.

Given as :

The cost of each chair = $ 200

The cost of each table = $ 600

The total number of furniture sold per day = 40

The minimum amount of selling per day = $ 12000

Let the total number of chair = C

The total number of table = T

So , according to question

C + T = 40        .......1

200 C + 600 T = 12000         .......2

Solving eq 1 and 2

200 C + 600 T = 12000

200 × ( C + T ) = 40 × 200

i.e 200 C + 200 T = 8000

or, ( 200 C + 600 T ) - ( 200 C + 200 T ) = 12,000 - 8000

Or, 400 T =  4000

i.e T = 10

Put The value of T in eq 2

So, 200 C + 600 × 10 = 12000

or , 200 C + 6000 = 12,000

Or, 200 C = 12000 - 6000

Or, 200 C = 6000

i.e C = 30

The number of chair sold is 30

If the number of chair sold is 10 ,

Then the min number of table sold = 200 × 30 + 600 T = 12000

i.e 600 T = 12000 - 6000

or, 600 T = 6000

∴   T = 10

I.e T = 10

Hence, if the minimum 30 chairs were sold , then the minimum number of Tables sold is 10 .

b. The slope and y-intercept are (1/5) and 0 respectively.

c. In 4 hours I can bike for 40 miles.

What are lines and their slopes?

We know lines have various types of equations, the general type is

Ax + By + c = 0, and the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is

y = mx + b.

Where slope = m and b = y-intercept.

the slope is the rate of change of the y-axis with respect to the x-axis and the y-intercept is the (0,b) where the line intersects the y-axis at x = 0.

We know the equation of a line in point-slope form is (y - y₁) = m(x - x₁).

Given, x represents time in minutes and y represents the distance in miles.

Let us take two ordered pairs (30, 6) and (40, 8).

Slope(m) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁).

Slope(m) = (8 - 6)/(40 - 30).

Slope(m) = 2/10.

Slope(m) = 1/5.

∴ The equation of the line that represents distance as a function of time

is (y - 6)= (1/5)(x - 30).

Let y = mx + b.

6 = (1/5)30 + b.

6 = 6 + b.

b = 0.

So, y-intercept(b) = 0 and slope(m) is 1/5.

I can bike in 4 hours or (4×60) = 240 minutes is,

y = (1/5)(240) + 0.

y = 48 miles.

The area of the field is 4140 square yards.

What is a rectangle?

A rectangle is a quadrilateral with all four interior angles 90°.

Given that, the perimeter of the field is 302 yards.

Let the length and width of the field be l and w respectively.

Given that, the length is 7 yards longer than three times its width, therefore,

l = 7 + 3w

The perimeter of the field is given by:

2(l +w) =302

l + w = 151

w = 151 - l..........(1)

Substitute l = 7+3w into the above equation:

w = 151 - 7 - 3w

w + 3w = 144

4w = 144

w = 36

Substitute w = 36 into equation (1):

36 = 151 - l

l = 151 - 36

l = 115

The area of the field is:

l × w

115 × 36
