Malin and Shawn begin with the same number, $t$. Malin subtracts $6$ from $t$ and then divides the result by $6$. Shawn adds $7$ to $t$ and then divides the result by $7$. If Malin's final answer is the same as Shawn's final answer, what was the number $t$

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

t=84

Step-by-step explanation:

Malin's answer is $\frac{t-6}{6}$. Shawn's answer is $\frac{t+7}{7}$. We know these are equal, so we have the equation

$$\frac{t-6}{6} = \frac{t+7}{7}.$$

To eliminate denominators from the problem, we multiply both sides by $6\cdot 7$:

$$\frac{6\cdot 7\cdot (t-6)}{6} = \frac{6\cdot 7\cdot (t+7)}{7},$$

then simplify to get

$$7\cdot (t-6) = 6\cdot (t+7).$$

The parentheses are important here! For example, the parentheses on the left side of the equation tell us that it is $t-6$, not just $t$, which is multiplied by $7$.

Now we expand using the distributive property:

7t - 7\cdot 6 &= 6t + 6\cdot 7;\\

7t - 42 &= 6t + 42.

Adding $42$ to both sides gives

$$7t = 6t + 84,$$

then subtracting $6t$ from both sides gives $t=\boxed{84}$.

(We can check that starting from $t=84$, Malin and Shawn do indeed get the same final answer -- namely, $13$.)

State the slope and y-intercept for the graph of
- 8x + y = -12.

Answers

Answer:

y must have a numerical coefficient of 1. This equation does. If it does not, then you must divide through by whatever is in front of the y.

To read the slope, you must have x and its coefficient on opposite sides of the equal sign.

So you get

y = 8x – 12 when you add 8x to both sides

Next, the y intercept is found when x = 0

y = 8x – 12

y = 8(0) – 12

y = – 12

The  y intercept is -12 or in point form (0, – 12)

Answer

slope = 8

y intercept = – 12

Jeremy got a haircut and paid 15% as a tip. What percent of the cost did Jeremy pay the barber, including the tip?

Answers

The percentage of the cost that Jeremy will pay including the tip paid is 115% of the cost.

Assuming the cost was $100 and Jeremy gave a 15% tip. The total he would pay is:

= 100 + tip

= 100 + (100 x 15%)

= $115

In percentage this is:

= 115/100 x 100%

= 115%

In conclusion, Jeremy would pay 115% of the tip.

Answers

The vertical asymptotes of the function are 3 and 6

Given the function

[tex]\frac{x+6}{x^2-9x+18}[/tex]

The vertical asymptotes of the function occur at the point where the denominator is zero.

Equate the denominator to zero.

x^2 - 9x + 18 = 0

Factorize the quadratic expression:

x^2 - 3x - 6x + 18 =0

x(x-3)-6(x-3) = 0

(x-3)(x-6) = 0

x - 3 = 0 and x - 6 = 0

x = 3 and 6

Hence the vertical asymptotes of the function are 3 and 6

19. The present age of brother and sister are in the ration 4:5 Before three years the ration of their age was 3:4. find their present age-​

Answers

Answer:

Sister = 15 years old

Brother = 12 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Right now, if the brother is B years old and the sister is S years old, B = (4/5)S because the ratio from brother to sister is 4:5, so if one unit is X, B = 4X and S = 5X

Three years ago, the brother was B-3 years old and the sister was S-3 years old. Keeping one unit as X, we have

B = 3X

S = 4X

B-3 = (3/4)(S-3)

Therefore, we have a system of equations

B = (4/5)S

B-3 = (3/4)(S-3)

Substitute (4/5)S for B into the second equation to only have one variable

(4/5)S - 3 = (3/4)(S-3)

(4/5)S - 3 = (3/4)S - 9/4

add 3 to both sides and subtract (3/4)S from both sides to isolate the variable and its coefficient

(1/20)S = 3/4

multiply both sides by 20 to isolate the S

S = 15

B = (4/5)S = 12

X/2 = Y/3 = Z/4. prove that :2X-Y+5Z / 3Y-X =3. note :: (/) is for a fraction aka divide. help pls I've been stuck on it for a few days​

Answers

The given equation

x/2 = y/3 = z/4

can be broken into three separate equations which I'll call equations (A), (B) and (C)

x/2 = y/3 ..... equation (A)y/3 = z/4 .... equation (B)x/2 = z/4 .... equation (C)

We'll start off solving for z in equation (C)

x/2 = z/4

4x = 2z ... cross multiply

2z = 4x

z = 4x/2 ... divide both sides by 2

z = 2x

Now let's solve for y in equation (A)

x/2 = y/3

3x = 2y

2y = 3x

y = 3x/2

y = (3/2)x

y = 1.5x

The results of z = 2x and y = 1.5x both have the right hand sides in terms of x. This will allow us to replace the variables y and z with something in terms of x, which means we'll have some overall expression with x only. The idea is that expression should simplify to 3 if we played our cards right.

We won't be using equation (B) at all.

---------------------

The key takeaway from the last section is that

z = 2xy = 1.5x

Let's plug those items into the expression (2x-y+5z)/(3y-x) to get the following:

(2x-y+5z)/(3y-x)

(2x-y+5(2x))/(3y-x) ..... plug in z = 2x

(2x-y+10x)/(3y-x)

(12x-y)/(3y-x)

(12x-1.5x)/(3(1.5x)-x) .... plug in y = 1.5x

(12x-1.5x)/(4.5x-x)

(10.5x)/(3.5x)

(10.5)/(3.5)

3

We've shown that plugging z = 2x and y = 1.5x into the expression above simplifies to 3. Therefore, the equation (2x-y+5z)/(3y-x) = 3 is true when x/2 = y/3 = z/4. This concludes the proof.

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to find the Nth term of this sequence. Since this is linear we can just find the difference to get the n. For example, we can do 3-2 which is one and we can also do 5-4 which is also 1 which confirms that the n is 1. So in other words, 1n However, we don't write the 1 in front of the n because the n itself represents 1n. Next, we have to take away 1 from the first term, which also gives us 1. This is the adjustment to the 1n. So our answer is n+1, which is the nth term for this linear sequence. So now we just substitute 44 into the equation. 44+1=45, which is the 44th term.
