If 5x is the average of two numbers and one of the numbers is 3, what is the other number? My book says its 10x-3. How did they come up with that answer?

Answers

Answer 1

The other number given the average of the two numbers and one of the numbers is 10x - 3.

What is the average of the two numbers?

The average of a set of numbers is the mean of the numbers. The average of a set of numbers is determined by adding the numbers together and dividing it by the sum of numbers. Average is a measure of central tendency.

In order to determine the second answer, subtract the first number from the sum of numbers.

Average = sum of numbers / total numbers

5x = sum of numbers / 2

Sum of the two numbers = 5x  × 2

Sum of the two numbers = 10x

If one of the numbers is 3, the other number is: 10x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given quadrilateral ABCD with diagonal BD forming triangles ABD and BCD, and angles A=90°, C=52°, ADB=35°, and CBD=52°, you want the length of CD to 3 significant figures.

Law of Sines

The law of sines tells you the relation between sides and opposite angles is ...

  a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)

This lets us write two proportions that can be solved for the measure of CD.

In triangle ABD:

  BD/sin(A) = AB/sin(D)

  BD = AB·sin(90°)/sin(35°) = 12 cm/sin(35°) ≈ 20.921 cm

In triangle BCD:

  CD/sin(B) = BD/sin(C)

  CD = BD·sin(B)/sin(C) = 20.921 cm·sin(102°)/sin(52°) ≈ 25.969 cm

The length of CD is about 26.0 cm.

Hunter measured the middle school and made a scale drawing. The scale he used was 1 inch : 10 feet. The gym is 7 inches wide in the drawing. How wide is the actual gym?

Answers

Answer:

  70 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the actual width of a gym that is represented as 7 inches on a drawing with a scale of 1 in : 10 ft.

Scale factor

Each inch represents 10 feet, so 7 inches will represent ...

  7 × 10 ft = 70 ft

The gym is 70 ft wide.

__

Additional comment

You can also write and solve an equation that shows the measures are proportional:

  actual width / drawing width = (10 ft) / (1 in) = (gym width) / (7 in)

Multiplying both sides of this proportion by 7 in, we have ...

  gym width = (7 in) × (10 ft)/(1 in) = 7 × 10 ft = 70 ft

1. Suppose we have two consecutive odd integers. If the smaller one is “x” ; what would we call the large one?
2. We are told there are two consecutive odd integers and the smaller one is 12 more than one third the large one. Use the answer to problem 1 to write a clean equation then find the integers

Answers

Main Answer:1) (x + 2)

                     2) The numbers are 19 and 21.

Concept and definitions should be there:

An odd integer n is an integer which is not a multiple of 2 (or equivalently one more than a multiple of 2). The odd integers are ..., -5, -3, -1, 1, 3, 5, ... Every odd integer can be written in the form 2k + 1 for some unique integer k.

The product of any two odd integers is odd and the result of a division where both the dividend and the divisor are odd is odd. But the sum and difference of any two odd integers are even.

The sum and difference of an even integer and odd integer are odd. Besides 2, all prime numbers are odd. Also, odd integers are really cool

This article is a stub. Help us out by expanding it.

Given data:

1) We have two consecutive odd integers.

Solving part:

Remember that the distance between any two consecutive odd numbers is 2.

5 - 3 = 2

7 - 5 = 2

13 - 11 = 2

etc.

So if the smaller of the two odd numbers is x, then the larger one will be (x + 2).

Given that:

2) We have two consecutive odd numbers, let's write them as:

Solving part:

(2*n + 1) and (2*n + 3)

Where n is an integer number.

We know that the smaller one is 12 more than one third of the larger one, so we have:

(2*n + 1) = 12 + (2*n + 3)/3

Now we can solve this for n

2*n + 1 = 12 + (2/3)*n + 1

2*n - (2/3)*n = 12 + 1 - 1

(4/3)*n = 12

n = (3/4)*12 = 9

n = 9

Then the two consecutive odd integers are:

(2*n + 1) = (2*9 + 1) = 19

(2*n + 3) = (2*9 + 3) = 21

Final Answer:1) (x + 2)

                      2) The numbers are 19 and 21.

Find the ending
balance:

2.75% annual simple
interest
Show work

Answers

Answer:

$4,218.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for computing simple interest I on a principal amount P for t years at an interest rate of R% is given by

I = Prt

The ending balance amount is found by adding the principal to the interest computed

Ending balance = P + I

Here r is the interest rate in % converted to a decimal. This is done by dividing by 100

r = R/100 = 2.75%/100 = 0.0275 per year

I = 2500 x 0.0275 x 25 = 1718.75

So interest I = $1718.75

Ending balance = $2,500 + $1718.75 = $4,218.75

One liter of interior paint covers 100 square feet. How many gallons of paint does it take to cover 800 square meters of walls?

Answers

By doing some changes of units, we can see that we will need 22.61 gallons of paint to cover 800 square meters.

How many gallons does it take to cover 800 square meters of walls?

We know that with one liter of interior paint we can cover 100 square feet.

Remember the relation between square feet and square meeters:

1ft^2 = 0.092 m^2

Then with one liter we can cover:

100ft^2 = 100*0.092 m^2 = 9.2 m^2

So the number of liters of paint that we need to cover the 800 m^2 is given by the quotient:

L = 800m^2/9.2m^2 = 86.96

We need 86.96 liters of paint, and the relation between liters and gallons is:

1 L = 0.26 gal

Then we need:

86.96 L = 86.96*(0.26 gal) = 22.61 gal

We will need 22.61 gallons of paint to cover 800 square meters.

Find an equation for the line which passes through (-2,8) and is perpendicular to the line containing (0,1) and (4,5).

Answers

The equation of line which passes through (-2, 8) and perpendicular to the line conatining (0, 1) and (4, 5) is y = -x + 6 .

Let the equation of line passes through the point (-2, 8) be y = mx + b.

Where m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept of the line.

According to the given question.

A line passes through the points (-2, 8).

And it is also perpendicular to the line containing (0, 1) and (4, 5).

Since, the line is perpendicualr to the line conatining (0, 1) and (4, 5).

So, the slope of the line whose equation is to be find is given by

m = -1/(5 - 1/4-0)

⇒ m = -1/4/4 = -1

Thereofre, the equation of line with slope -1 is

y = -1x + b

Also, it passes through (-2, 8)

So,

8 = -1(-2) + b

⇒ 8 - 2 = b

⇒ b = 6

Thereofore, the equation of line which passes through (-2, 8) and perpendicular to the line conatining (0, 1) and (4, 5) is y = -x + 6 .
