Nadia is asked to find a number such that the difference between five times the number and three less than twice the number is equal to eighteen. Her work and answer are shown below. 5n−(3−2n)5n−3+2n7n−37nn=====181818213 Is Nadia correct? If not, identify and correct her error.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Nadia is incorrect, please check explanations for the correction to her work

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to validate the wok of Nadia

Let the number be n

5 times the number is 5 * n = 5n

Difference between 5n and 3 less than twice the number

3 less than twice the number is 2n-3

So it should be 2n-3 ;

The solution is thus;

5n - (2n-3) = 18

5n - 2n + 3 = 18

3n + 3 = 18

3n = 18-3

3n = 15

n = 15/3

n = 5

Answer 2

Answer:

Nadia is incorrect; she did not translate the given information into an equation properly. The first equation should be 5n−(2n−3)=18.

Answers

Answer:

(3/2, 7/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations;

y = 3x/2 + 5/4..... 1

-2x + 8y = 25 .... 2

Substitute equation 1 into 2;

From 2;

-2x + 8y = 25

-2x + 8(3x/2 + 5/4) = 25

-2x + 12x + 10 = 25

10x = 25 - 10

10x = 15

x = 15/10

x = 3/2

Substitute x = 3/2 into equation 1

From 1;

y = 3x/2 + 5/4

y = 3/2(3/2) + 5/4

y = 9/4 + 5/4

y = 14/4

y = 7/2

Hence the solution to the equation is (x, y) = (3/2, 7/2)

A square has a perimeter of 100m. what is the length of each side?

Answers

It would be 25m. This is because for perimeter you have to add up all the sides. And really since you have a square you could do 100 divided by 4 and get your answer.

Answer:

25m

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a square= 4L (L=length of the side)

so L=perimeter /4

=100/4=25m

Answers

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

put like terms on either side

3x-5 = 4 + 2x

subtract both sides by 2x

x - 5 = 4

add both sides by 5

x=9

so no x=-3 is NOT a solution.

A cone shape cup is made from a circular piece of paper of radius 7 by cutting out a sector and joining the edge AC and BC. Find the maximum (volume) of such a cup

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "138.10"

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r also be cone base radius and h = the cone height.  

The radius for the original circle was on either side of the cone plied together = 7.  

The hypotenuse is 7, as well as a right triangle, is formed. So:

[tex]\to h^2+r^2 = 49\\\\ \to r^2 = 49-h^2[/tex]

Calculating the volume of the cone:

[tex]V = (\frac{1}{3}) \pi r^2 h \\\\[/tex]

   [tex]= (\frac{1}{3}) \pi (49 -h^2) h\\\\= (\frac{1}{3}) \pi 49h -h^3\\\\[/tex]

[tex]V'(h) = (\frac{1}{3}) \pi 49 - 3h^2\\\\[/tex]

Setting the derivative to zero and solving for h^2:

[tex]49-3h^2 = 0 \\\\ h^2 = \frac{49}{3} \\\\ r^2 = 49-\frac{49}{3} \\[/tex]

    [tex]= \frac{ 147 -49}{3} \\\\= \frac{98}{3} \\\\[/tex]

Calculating the maximum volume:

[tex]= \frac{1}{3} \pi \frac{98}{3} \frac{7\sqrt{3}}{3} \\\\= \frac{1}{3} \times 3.14 \times 32.66 \times 4.04 \\\\= \frac{1}{3} \times 3.14 \times 32.66 \times 4.04 \\\\= 138.10[/tex]

Without dividing how can you tell if the quotient for 5873 divided into 8 is greater than 700? Explain whether the quotient is less than 800.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given number is 5873.

To calculate the quotient when 5873 is divided by 8 we will use the approximation method.

If 5600 is the number compatible to 5873, where 5873 > 5600

5600 ÷ 8 = 700

If 6000 is the number compatible to 5873, where 5873 < 6000

6000 ÷ 8 = 750

Since, 5600 < 5873 < 6000

Therefore, [tex]\frac{5600}{8}<\frac{5873}{8}<\frac{6000}{8}[/tex]

700 < [tex]\frac{5873}{8}[/tex] < 750

Quotient for 5873 divided by 8 will be greater than 700 and less than 800.

Bill is a builder.
On Monday he made mortar mix.
He used 24kg of sand and 5kg of cement.
On Tuesday he will make the same type of mortar mix.
He will use 36kg of sand.
How much cement does he need to make the same type of mortar mix?

Answers

Answer:

7.5kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Monday:

Mass of sand = 24 kg

Mass of cement = 5 kg

Tuesday :

Mass of sand = 36 kg

Let mass of cement = c

Mass of cement required to make the same type of mortar mix

Mass of Sand = mass of cement

24kg = 5kg

36kg = c

By cross multiplication :

24 * c = 5 * 36

24c = 180

Divide both sides by 24

c = 180 / 24

c = 7.5 kg

Hence mass of cement required is 7.5 kg

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

7x - 2(7x - 9) = 2(-6x + 4)                      Remove the brackets on both sides.

7x - 14x + 18 = -12x + 8                         Combine like terms

-7x + 18 = -12x + 8                                Add 12x to both sides

-7x+12x + 18 = 8                                   Combine like terms on the left

5x + 18 = 8                                           Subtract 18 from both sides

5x = 8 - 18

5x = -10                                                Divide by 5

x = - 10/5

A system of linear equations includes the line that is created by the equation y = 0.5 x minus 1 and the line through the points (3, 1) and (–5, –7), shown below.

Answers

Answer:

(2, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to get the equation of the line passing through the points (3, 1) and (–5, –7)

Equation of a line is y = mx+c

m is the slope

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = -7-1/-5-3

m = -8/-8

m = 1

Substitute m = 1 and the point (3, 1) into the equation y = mx+c and get c;

1 = 1(3) + c

1 = 3 + c

c = 1-3

c = -2

The required equation is y = x - 2

We are to look for the coordinate point (x,y) for which both lines intersects, then both equations will be equal as shown;

0.5x - 1 = x - 2

0.5x - x = -2+1

-0.5x = -1

x = -1/-0.5

x = 2

Substitute x = 2 into y = x - 2

y = 2-2

y = 0

Hence the the coordinate point is (2, 0)
