There are 23 animals in the field. Some are pigs and some are ducks. There are 80 legs in all. How many of each animal are in the field?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Pigs = 17

Ducks = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let there be x pigs and y ducks in the field.

[tex]\implies x + y =23[/tex]

[tex]\implies y =23-x.....(1)[/tex]

Since, there are 80 legs in all.

Each pig has 4 legs and each duck has 2 legs. So, x pigs will have 4x legs and y ducks will have 2y legs.

Total legs = 4x + 2y

Total legs = 80 (Given)

[tex]\implies 4x + 2y =80....(2)[/tex]

From equations (1) & (2), we find:

[tex]\implies 4x + 2(23-x) =80[/tex]

[tex]\implies 4x + 46-2x =80[/tex]

[tex]\implies 2x =80-46[/tex]

[tex]\implies 2x =34[/tex]

[tex]\implies x =\frac{34}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\implies x =17[/tex]

[tex]\implies y =23-17[/tex]

[tex]\implies y =6[/tex]

An object is launched at 18.4 meters per second (m/s) from a 36.8-meter tall
platform. The equation for the object's height s at time t seconds after launch is
s(t) = -4.9t2 + 18.4t + 36.8, where s is in meters.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation for the object's height s at time t seconds after launch is

s(t) = -4.9t^2 + 18.4t + 36.8

Since are not asked what to look for, we can as well lok for the time taken for the ball to hot the ground. The ball hits the ground at when s(t) = 0. The equaton becomes:

0 = -4.9t^2 + 18.4t + 36.8

Multiply through by -10

49t^2 - 184t - 368 = 0

factorize the resulting expression

t = 18±√184²-4(49)(-386)/2(49)

t =  18±√338564+75656/78

t =  18±√414220/78

t =  18±643.599/78

t =  661.559/78

t = 8.48secs

Hence the object reaches that ground after 8.48seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

20+20+25+3+2+5=75

Total of 100 students

75/100=0.75

=75%

 The percentage of P(sports ∪ work) is equal to  75%.

We have given the table

we have to find the percentage of sports and work

What is the formula for the total?

Total=Work+sports

Therefore we have to add the values of work and sports

20+20+25+3+2+5=75

Total of 100 students

75/100=0.75

=75%

Therefore the percentage of P(sports ∪ work) is given by 75%.

Answer:

B both are proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

so i think by proportional its linear?

so the graph is linear because its a line and its a function, but for the table we first have to find the slope by using the equation

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

(4, 1.31) and (8, 2.62) will be the points we will use

2.62 - 1.31 / 8 - 4

1.31/4

0.3275x

now i think we use a point we did not use yet sooo (16, 5.24)

we substitute

y = 0.3275x + b

5.24 = 0.3275(16) + b

5.24 = 5.24 + b

b = 0

so the equation would be

y = 0.3275x

now we check with the last point given

6.55 = 0.3275(20) ?

6.55 = 6.55

so i think the answer is both are proportional ?

The table and graph doesn’t match so , the table and the graph isn’t proportional.


I would go with only the graph is proportional

A fire hydrant is 30 in. tall and casts a shadow 8 in. long. how tall is a
nearby tree that casts a shadow 4 ft long?

Answers

Using proportions, it is found that a tree that casts a shadow 4 ft long is 180 in. tall.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, a fire hydrant that is 30 in. tall and casts a shadow 8 in. long. We want to find the height of a tree that casts a shadow of 4 ft = 4 x 12 = 48 inches. Hence, the rule of three is given by:

30 in - 8 in

h in - 48 in

Applying cross multiplication:

h = 48 x 30/8

h = 6 x 30.

h = 180 in.

Answers

Answer:

Patrick's statement is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

Crackers come in packages of 24

cheese slices come in packages of 18

He wants one cheese slice for each cracker

Patrick made the statement below "if Andy doesn't want any crackers or cheese slices left over he needs to buy at least 432 of each"

Patrick's statement is incorrect

The lowest common multiple ( L. C. M) of 24 and 18 is 72

Therefore, Andy needs 72 packages of crackers and 72 packages of cheese slice so that no crackers or cheese slice will remain.

$6.13 a piece
$8.88 a piece
$7.95 a piece
$10.05 a pie

Answers

Answer:

$8.88

Step-by-step explanation:

5.50+5.50+3.75+3.00=17.75÷2=8.88

Answer:

Its A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the price up to find the total: 5.50 + 3.75 + 3 = $12.25. Since there were 2 people and they wanted to split the cost- they pay half half. So 12.25 divided by 2 is $6.12.5 but you gotta round it to get an answer hats there so you round it up to 6.13.

How can tangent be seen geometrically in the unit circle?

Answers

Answer:

The coordinates of the points on the unit circle help us to find the tangent of each angle. As you can see with this equation, the tangent of an angle is equal to the y-coordinate divided by the x-coordinate. For each angle, start by dividing each y-coordinate by the x-coordinate to get the tangent of that angle.

Find the inverse. Check your answer algebraically and graphically.

f(x) = 4x/x − 9, x ≠ 9


f^-1(x)=

Answers

as you already know, to get the inverse of any expression we start off by doing a quick switcheroo on the variables and then solving for "y", let's do so.

[tex]\stackrel{f(x)}{y}~~ = ~~\cfrac{4x}{x-9}\implies \stackrel{\textit{quick switcheroo}}{x~~ = ~~\cfrac{4y}{y-9}}\implies xy-9x=4y\implies -9x=4y-xy \\\\\\ -9x=y(4-x)\implies \cfrac{-9x}{4-x}=y\implies \cfrac{9x}{x-4}=\stackrel{f^{-1}(x)}{y}[/tex]

how to test algebraically? well, for any (a,b) pair in f(x), its inverse will have another pair but (b,a), hmmm let's plug hmmm say

f(10) = 40, and f⁻¹(40) = 10.

we could plug more values in each, same pair will come up.

Kamala was ordering tickets from a local theater for two different events. The first event cost $24.95 per ticket plus a $5 processing fee. The second event cost $35.75 per ticket plus a $9.95 processing fee. If Kamala purchased the same number of tickets to each event, what is the simplified expression for the total cost for both events?

Answers

Answer:

T=60.7x+5+14.95

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of tickets be x

and the number is the same for both tickets

for the first event

the cost is =24.95x+ 5

for the second event

the cost is =35.75x+ 9.95

for both events the total cost is

T=24.95x+ 5+35.75x+ 9.95

T=24.95x+35.75x+5+ 9.95

The simplified expression for the total cost for both events T=60.7x+5+14.95
