There are two numbers which sum to 23. If one number is seven less than four times the other, find the numbers.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Numbers are 6 and 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers are 'a' and 'b'.

"Sum of these numbers = 23"

a + b = 23 --------(1)

"One number is 7 less than 4 times the other"

a = 4b - 7 ---------(2)

Substitute the value of 'a' in equation (1) from equation (2)

(4b - 7) + b = 23

5b - 7 = 23

5b = 23 + 7

5b = 30

b = 6

From equation (2),

a = 4b - 7

a = 4×6 - 7

a = 24 - 7

a = 17

Therefore, the numbers are 6 and 17.

Answer 2

Answer: 7 and 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the smaller of the two numbers. We are told that the larger number is five less than three times the smaller number x. Therefore, our two numbers are x and 3x−5. Given that the sum is 23, we find that

x+(3x−5)=23

Solving for x, we find that x=7. So the two numbers are 7,16.

I think it might be A, B, and E but I am not 100% sure.

Step-by-step explanation:

The figures are rectangular prism, cylinder, and square pyramid.

What is the volume of a prism?

A three-dimensional solid object called a prism has two identical ends. It consists of equal cross-sections, flat faces, and identical bases. Without bases, the prism's faces are parallelograms or rectangles.

The volume of a prism is the product of its base area and height

Volume of Prism = B x h

where B = base area of prism

h = height of prism

Given data ,

The rectangular prism, cylinder, and square pyramid have rectangular cross sections when they are cut perpendicular to the base.

A rectangular prism has a rectangular cross section no matter where it is cut perpendicular to the base.

A cylinder has a circular base, but when it is cut perpendicular to the base, the cross section is a rectangle.

A square pyramid has a square base, and when it is cut perpendicular to the base, the cross section is also a rectangle.

A triangular prism has a triangular base, and when it is cut perpendicular to the base, the cross section is a triangle, not a rectangle.

A cone has a circular base, and when it is cut perpendicular to the base, the cross section is a circle, not a rectangle.

A triangular pyramid has a triangular base, and when it is cut perpendicular to the base, the cross section is a triangle, not a rectangle.

Hence , the three options that have rectangular cross sections when cut perpendicular to the base are: rectangular prism, cylinder, and square pyramid.

Answer:

a₁ = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum to n terms of a geometric sequence is

[tex]S_{n}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{a_{1}(r^{n}-1) }{r-1}[/tex]

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Here [tex]S_{6}[/tex] = 189 and r = 2, thus

[tex]\frac{a_{1}(2^{6}-1) }{2-1}[/tex] = 189, that is

a₁( 64 - 1) = 189

63a₁ = 189 ( divide both sides by 63 )

a₁ = 3

12. Building codes regulate the steepness of stairs. Homes must have steps that are at least 13 inches wide for each 8 inches
that they rise.
a. Discuss how to find the slope of the stairs.
b. Describe how changing the width or height affects the steepness of the stairs.

Answers

Answer:

Slope tells you about the steepness of a line. It can is the ration of vertical change to horizontal change and you can solve this by using the slope formula:

a. So in your case, starting from the bottom, the slope is:

If you want to use coordinates, you can think of the first point (bottom of the stairs} would be at the point of origin (0,0). The next point would be at the top of the first stair 13 inches wide (horizontal or x) and 8 inches high (vertical or y)

So the coordinates of the two points would be:

(0,0) and (13, 8)

Using the formula we would have:

b. Looking at the answer above, you can see that the slope with increase if the vertical change is greater, so if you increase the height of the stairs, the stair would be steeper. The opposite is true if you would increase the width.

However, if you proportionally increase the width and the height, then the slope will remain the same.

The first column has no label with entries L A residents, N Y C residents, total. The second column is labeled own a car with entries 3,251; 1,478, 4,729. The third column is labeled do not own a car with entries 869; 6,182; 7,051. The fourth column is labeled total with entries 4,120; 7,660; 11,780. Which statement about the two-way frequency table is true? The survey represents quantitative data. There is a greater percentage of LA residents who own a car than NYC residents who do. The total number of people in the poll who own a car is 4,120. More people in the poll own a car than do not own a car.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

There is a greater percentage of LA residents who own a car than NYC residents who do

Step-by-step explanation:

The values are presented as follows;

LA residents who own a car = 3251

NYC residents who own a car = 1478

Total residents who own a car = 4729

LA residents who do not own a car = 869

NYC residents who do not own a car = 6182

Total residents who do not own a car = 7051

Total LA residents sampled = 4120

Total NYC residents sampled = 7660

Total residents of both cities sampled = 11780

Percentage of LA residents who own a car = (3251/4120)×100 = 78.9%

Percentage of NYC residents who own a car = (1478/7660)×100 = 19.3%

The total number of people in the poll who own a car = 4729

Therefore, the correct option is that there is a greater percentage of LA residents who own a car than NYC residents who do.

Answer: B. There is a greater percentage of LA residents who own a car than NYC residents who do.

Answer:

                  x = 1/6 =0.167

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    3*x+4-(9*x+3)=0  

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

1.1      Solve  :    -6x+1 = 0  

Subtract  1  from both sides of the equation :  

                     -6x = -1

Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) :  6x = 1

Divide both sides of the equation by 6:

                    x = 1/6 = 0.167

One solution :

                  x = 1/6 = 0.167

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Subtract 9x from both sides.

3x+4−9x=9x+3−9x

−6x+4=3

Step 2: Subtract 4 from both sides.

−6x+4−4=3−4

−6x=−1

Step 3: Divide both sides by -6.

−6x                  -1

Write an equation to represent the total cost for a certain number of cans. Use “c” for cost and “n” for number of cans.

Answers

Answer:

C = 1.25n

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given table,

There is a common difference of $1.25 in every successive term to the previous term of the total cost,

Difference in the costs of 2 cans and 1 can = $2.50 - $1.25 = $1.25

Similarly, Difference in the costs of 3 cans and 2 cans = $3.75 - $2.50 = $1.25

Total cost of the cans are forming an Arithmetic sequence, explicit formula the sequence will be,

[tex]T_n=a+(n-1)d[/tex]

    = 1.25 + (n -1)(1.25)

Or, C = 1.25 + 1.25n - 1.25

     C = 1.25n

a number t decreased by 2 is at least 7

Answers

Answer:
t - 2 ≥ 7; t ≥ 9

Explanation:
“a number t” = t
“decreased by 2” = - 2
“Is at least 7” = ≥ 7
So, t - 2 ≥ 7

To solve for t - 2 ≥ 7, add 2 to both sides of the equation

t - 2 ≥ 7
t - 2 + 2 ≥ 7 + 2
t ≥ 9

So, t ≥ 9

Esteban's credit card issuing bank charges him an APR of 16% on new purchases, and 24% on
cash advances. What would the bank charge Esteban monthly in finance charges for a $700 cash
advance?

Answers

Answer: $14

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to multiply the amount of the cash advance (700) by the APR for cash advances in decimal form (divided by 100):

700 x (24/100) = $168 (a year)

To obtain the monthly charges, we have to divide the result by the number of months in a year (12):

168 /12 = $14
