The gardening store sells clay flower pots, which hold 2 litres of dirt, and ceramic flower pots, which hold 7 litres. Tara bought 35 flower pots, which will hold a total of 150 litres of dirt. How many of each flower pot did she buy?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The number of clay flower pots = x = 19

The number of ceramic flower pots = y = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

The number of clay flower pots = x

The number of ceramic flower pots = y

Tara bought 35 flower pots

= x + y = 35

x = 35 - y

The gardening store sells clay flower pots, which hold 2 litres of dirt, and ceramic flower pots, which hold 7 litres. Tara bought 35 flower pots, which will hold a total of 150 litres of dirt.

Hence:

2x + 7y = 150.... Equation 2

Substitute 35 - y for x in Equation 2

2 (35 - y) + 7y = 150

70 - 2y + 7y = 150

-2y + 7y = 150 - 70

5y = 80

y = 80/5

y = 16 flower pots

x = 35 - y

x = 35 - 16

x = 19 flower pots

The number of clay flower pots = x = 19

The number of ceramic flower pots = y = 16

Answer 2

Answer:

The number of clay flower pots = 19

The number of ceramic flower pots = 16

If an object on earth weighs 42 lbs, what is its weight on the moon?

Answers

Answer:

6.93 lbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight on the moon is approximately 16.5% of what you would weigh on Earth. Using this information, we can say that 16.5% of 42 lbs would equal how much the object would weigh on the moon.

I prefer to convert percentages the decimal way, so let's do it that way. 16.5% is 0.165 as a decimal, so now all we have to do is multiply 0.165 by 42 (since we are saying 16.5% of 42 lbs), and we get 6.93 lbs.

Critical Question. AAAAA​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

abc = 1

We have to prove that,

[tex]\frac{1}{1+a+b^{-1}}+\frac{1}{1+b+c^{-1}}+\frac{1}{1+c+a^{-1}}=1[/tex]

We take left hand side of the given equation and solve it,

[tex]\frac{1}{1+a+\frac{1}{b}}+\frac{1}{1+b+\frac{1}{c}}+\frac{1}{1+c+\frac{1}{a}}[/tex]

Since, abc = 1,

[tex]\frac{1}{c}=ab[/tex] and c = [tex]\frac{1}{ab}[/tex]

By substituting these values in the expression,

[tex]\frac{1}{1+a+\frac{1}{b}}+\frac{1}{1+b+\frac{1}{c}}+\frac{1}{1+c+\frac{1}{a}}=\frac{1}{1+a+\frac{1}{b}}+\frac{1}{1+b+ab}+\frac{1}{1+\frac{1}{ab}+\frac{1}{a}}[/tex]

                                       [tex]=\frac{b}{b+ab+1}+\frac{1}{1+b+ab}+\frac{ab}{ab+1+b}[/tex]

                                       [tex]=\frac{1+b+ab}{1+b+ab}[/tex]

                                       [tex]=1[/tex]

Which equal to the right hand side of the equation.

Hence, [tex]\frac{1}{1+a+b^{-1}}+\frac{1}{1+b+c^{-1}}+\frac{1}{1+c+a^{-1}}=1[/tex]

The sum of the firstnith term of series
is given by Sn = n2+ 5 n-6. Find the
general term (tn) and (+20)​

Answers

Answer:

Tn = 2n+4

T20 = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Sn = n²+ 5 n-6

Tn = Sn - Sn-1

Sn-1 = (n-1)² + 5(n-1) - 6

Tn = n²+ 5n-6 - ((n-1)² + 5(n-1) - 6))

Tn = n²+ 5n-6-(n²-2n+1+5n-5-6)

Tn = n²+ 5n-6-n²+2n-1-5n+5+6

Tn = 2n-7+11

Tn = 2n+4

Get the general term is 2n+4

To get the 20th term;

T20 = 2(20) + 4

T20 = 40+4

T20 = 44

Hence the 20th term of the sequence is 44

Answers

Answer:

38

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

6 + -5x + -3x = 38

Combine like terms: -5x + -3x = -8x

6 + -8x = 38

Solving

6 + -8x = 38

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.

6 + -6 + -8x = 38 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0

0 + -8x = 38 + -6

-8x = 38 + -6

Combine like terms: 38 + -6 = 32

-8x = 32

Divide each side by '-8'.

A water tank contains 19 gallons of water. Raymond begins to add water to the tank at a rate of 7 gallons per minute. Which equation can be used to find y, the gallons of water in the tank after x minutes?
A y = 19x + 7
B y = x + 26
C y = 7x + 19
D y = 19x + 7x​

Answers

Answer:

C y = 7x +19

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 19 gallons in the water tank and 7 gallons are added when you take x amount of minutes, which gives you y.

An example is 1 minute.

Y = 7(1) + 19

y = 7 + 19

y = 26

You have to remember that there are 19 gallons already in the tank and that 1 minute has passed, which means 7 gallons have been added. Thus there are 26 gallons in the water tank.

Which statement describes the rate of change of the following function?
f(x) = -5x - 7

A.
The function has a varying rate of change when x < 7.
B.
The function has a varying rate of change when x < 5.
C.
The function has a constant rate of change, decreasing for all x at a rate of 7.
D.
The function has a constant rate of change, decreasing for all x at a rate of 5.

Answers

Given:

The function is

[tex]f(x)=-5x-7[/tex]

To find:

The rate of change of the given function.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]f(x)=-5x-7[/tex]        ...(i)

It is a linear function because the degree or power of x in this function is 1.

Slope of a linear function is always constant.

The slope intercept form of a linear function is

[tex]f(x)=mx+b[/tex]      ...(ii)

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]m=-5[/tex]

It means, the function has a constant rate of change, decreasing for all x at a rate of 5.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Suppose that scores on a particular test are normally distributed with a mean of 140 and a standard deviation of 18. What is the minimum score needed to be in the top 5% of the scores on the test? Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places, and round your answer to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

153.16

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score = ???

μ is the population mean = 140

σ is the population standard deviation = 8

Top 5% means the score is in the 95th percentile

The z score of 95th percentile = 1.645

1.645 = x - 140/8

Cross Multiply

1.645 × 8 = x - 140

13.16 = x - 140

x = 13.16 + 140

x = 153.16

Therefore, the minimum score needed to be in the top 5% of the scores on the test is 153.16

In △ABC, AB = 13.2m, BC = 6.9m and ∠ACB = 90°. H lies on AC such that ∠BHC = 46°. Find (i) ∠ABH (ii) The length of AH

Answers

Answer:

(i) ∠ABH = 14.46⁰

(ii) The length of AH = 4.6 m

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image uploaded;

Consider △ABC;

the length of b is calculated by applying Pythagoras theorem as follows;

b² = c² - a²

b² = (13.2)² - (6.9)²

b² = 126.63

b = √126.63

b = 11.25 m

Also, ∠ABC is calculated as;

[tex]Cos \ B = \frac{a^2+c^2-b^2}{2ac} \\\\Cos \ B = \frac{(6.9)^2+(13.2)^2-(11.25)^2}{2(6.9 \times13.2)}\\\\ Cos \ B = \frac{95.288}{182.16} \\\\ Cos \ B = 0.5219 \\\\B = Cos ^{-1} (0.5231)\\\\B = 58.46 ^o[/tex]

Consider △CBH, ∠CBH is calculated as;

∠CBH = 90⁰ - 46⁰ = 44⁰

(i) ∠ABH will be calculated as;

∠ABH = θ

θ + 44⁰ = ∠ABC

θ + 44⁰ = 58.46⁰

θ = 58.46⁰  - 44⁰

θ = 14.46⁰

Thus, ∠ABH = 14.46⁰

(ii) The length of AH

length HC is calculated as;

[tex]tan \ 46^o =\frac{6.9}{HC} \\\\HC = \frac{6.9}{tan \ 46^o } \\\\HC = 6.66 \ m[/tex]

length of AH = CA - HC

x = b - HC

x = 11.25 - 6.66

x = 4.6 m

length of AH = 4.6 m
