Given -
A sum of money was distributed among some boys.Had there been two boys more, each would have received Rs. 10 less.Had there been two boys less, each would have received Rs. 15 more.To find -
the number of boys and the sum received by each.Explanation -
Here as we are required to find the value of two different individuals hence first we will from 2 linear equations into two variables (taking each to be value as x and y or whatever you like, I will take them as a and b) will solve the equation by any method of your choice (explanation for them is in the link, below, it is given by the same me)
https://brainly.com/question/27161912?utm_source=android&utm_medium=share&utm_campaign=question
Solution -
Let the sum of money that was given to each boy be a and the number of boys be b. Hence, the total no. of money distributed to b no. of boys is ab.
According to the question,
Scenario 1 -
➡ (a + 2)(b - 10) = ab
Solving it further,
➡ a(b - 10) + 2(b - 10)= ab
➡ ab - 10a + 2b - 20= ab
Cancelling ab,
➡ 10a - 2b + 20 = 0
➡ 10a = 2b - 20
➡ a = 2(b - 10)/10
➡ a = (b - 10)/5
Scenario 2 -
➡ (a - 2)(b + 15) = ab
Solving it further,
➡ a(b + 15) - 2(b + 15)= ab
➡ ab + 15a - 2b - 30= ab
Cancelling ab,
➡ 15a - 2b - 30 = 0
Substituting the value of a in the equation,
➡ 15{(b - 10)/5} - 2b - 30 = 0
➡ 3(b - 10) - 2b - 30 = 0
➡ 3b - 30 - 2b - 30 = 0
➡ 3b - 2b -60 = 0
➡ b = 60
Substituting the value of b in a = (b - 10)/5,
➡ a = (60 - 10)/5
➡ a = 50/5
➡ a = 10
[Here we have used the substitution method]
Henceforth, the total number of boys is 60 and the sum received by each is Rs. 10 .
What is the area of this figure?
Answer:
35 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the area of a square by multiplying its side lengths together: 5 * 5 = 25 cm^2.
Now find the area of the triangle by multiplying the base by the height and dividing by 2: 4 * 5 / 2 = 10 cm^2.
Therefore the total area of the figure is 25 + 10 = 35 cm^2.

Answer:
Equation:
C = 1.75x + 5 25
A 22-mile ride costs $43.75.
Step-by-step explanation:
Because there is a flat fee of 5.25, only the first two equations could possibly be correct.
Then check with the examples given. If a 7 mile ride costs 17.50, the second equation cannot possibly be right. 7 miles times over $5 per mile will cost more than $35 not even including the flat fee.
Check:
1.75(7) + 5.25 = 17.50
and
12(1.75) + 5.25 = 26.25
So, the correct equation is
C = 1.75x + 5.25
Next use this equation to find the cost of the 22 mile ride.
1.75(22) + 5.25
= 43.75

Answer:
17.51
Step-by-step explanation:
this is a right triangle, so sohcahtoa applies
we want x
relative to the angle, x is opposite of it and 25 is adjacent to it (the hypotenuse is the other side)
the formula that combines opposite and adjacent is tan
tanθ = opposite/adjacent
tan(35°) = x/25
multiply both sides by 25 to isolate x
tan(35°) * 25 = x
x ≈ 17.51
Write a propotion that can be used to convert 50 meters into kilometers. Then solve
Answer:
0.05km
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 1000 meters in a single kilometer. Using some dimensional analysis, we get set up the following expression:
[tex]\frac{50}{1} \frac{meters}{1}\frac{1}{1000} \frac{kilometers}{meters}[/tex]
The meters will cancel leaving the units of kilometers:
[tex]\frac{50}{1000} km=0.05km[/tex]
Which two values of x are roots of the polynomial below?
x^2 + 5x + 7
A. x = 5
B. x = -5-√-3 /2
C. x = -5+√-3 /2
D. x = 1/2
E. x = 5+√17 /2
F. x = 5-√17 /2
Answer:
B. and C.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Set the polynomial equal to zero:
x² + 5x + 7 = 0
2. Plug the given values of a, b, and c into the quadratic formula:
[tex]x=\frac{-5+-\sqrt{5^{2}-4(1)(7) } }{2(1)}[/tex]
3. Solve the square root:
[tex]x=\frac{-5+-\sqrt{25-4(1)(7)} }{2(1)}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{-5+-\sqrt{25-28} }{2(1)}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{-5+-\sqrt{-3} }{2(1)}[/tex]
4. Simplify the rest:
[tex]x=\frac{-5+-\sqrt{-3} }{2}[/tex]
5. Separate the solutions:
[tex]x=\frac{-5+\sqrt{-3} }{2} , x=\frac{-5-\sqrt{-3} }{2}[/tex]
Thus, options B and C are the answers.

Ciera can swim 400 meters in 1 minute and 20 seconds. What is Ciera’s average rate in meters per second?
Answer:
5 meters per second.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 60 seconds in 1 minute:
1 minute 20 seconds = 60 seconds + 20 seconds = 80 seconds.
Divide the amount of meters swam (400) with the total amount of seconds used (80) to get the average meters per second:
(400 meters)/(80 seconds) = 5 meters/second.
5 is your answer.
~
Answer:
5 MPS
Step-by-step explanation:
If Ciera can swin 400 meters in 1 minute and 20 seconds,
400 meters = 1 minute 20 seconds (1 1/3 minutes).
Divide both sides by 1 1/3.
400/ 1 1/3 = 300
Since it asks in seconds, divide by 60.
300/60=5
If you wanted to make $1219 by investing $4206 of 10 years in an account that pays simple interest, what interest rate you would need to achieve your goal? rate(%):
Answer:
2.90 % rate
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple intrest (si) = $1219
Principal (p) = $4206
time (t) = 10yrs
rate (r) = ?
Now using formula,
r = ix100/p×t
r = 1219×100/4206×10
r = 2.90 ( in calculator it will show 2.898 if the third digit is more than 5 after the decimal in the second number 1 is added so it will be 2.90)
Set up a system of linear equations to represent the scenario. Solve the system by using Gaussian elimination or Gauss-

Sylvia invested a total of $27,000. She invested part of the money in a certificate of deposit (CD) that earns 3% simple
interest per year. She invested in a stock that returns the equivalent of 7% simple interest, and she invested in a bond fund
that returns 2%. She invested three times as much in the stock as she did in the CD, and earned a total of $1140 at the
end of 1 yr. How much principal did she put in each investment?
She invested $11,250 in the stock, $3,750 in the CD and $12,000 in the bond fund.
DistributionsGiven that Sylvia invested a total of $27,000, and she invested part of the money in a certificate of deposit (CD) that earns 3% simple interest per year, she invested in a stock that returns the equivalent of 7% simple interest, and she invested in a bond fund that returns 2%, and she invested three times as much in the stock as she did in the CD, and earned a total of $1140 at the end of 1 yr, to determine how much principal did she put in each investment, the following calculation must be made:
9000 x 0.07 + 3000 x 0.03 + 15000 x 0.02 = 630 + 90 + 300 = 10209900 x 0.07 + 3300 x 0.03 + 13800 x 0.02 = 693 + 99 + 276 = 106812,000 x 0.07 + 4,000 x 0.03 + 11,000 x 0.02 = 840 + 120 + 220 = 1,18011400 x 0.07 + 3800 x 0.03 + 11800 x 0.02 = 798 + 114 + 236 = 114810800 x 0.07 + 3600 x 0.03 + 12600 x 0.02 = 756 + 108 + 252 = 111611160 x 0.07 + 3720 x 0.03 + 12120 x 0.02 = 781.2 + 111.6 + 242.4 = 1135.211190 x 0.07 + 3730 x 0.03 + 12080 x 0.02 = 783.3 + 111.9 + 241.6 = 1136.811250 x 0.07 + 3750 x 0.03 + 12000 x 0.02 = 787.5 + 112.5 + 240 = 1140Therefore, she invested $11,250 in the stock, $3,750 in the CD and $12,000 in the bond fund.

2 - 120
3 - 60
4 - 120
5 - 60
6 - 120
7 - 60
8 - 120
Step-by-step explanation:
Via supplementary angles, you can conclude that angle 5 is 60. Because of vertical angles, angle 8 is 120 and angle 7 is 60. Because of alternate exterior angles, angle 1 is congruent to angle 7 and angle 2 is congruent to angle 8, meaning angle 1 is 60 and angle 2 is 120. Because of vertical angles, angle 3 is 60 and angle 4 is 120.

A sweater is marked 30% off the original price. The original price was $37.50. What is the sale price of the sweater before sales tax?
(I will give brainliest if you show your work)!!
Answer:
$26.25
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the discounted price, subtract the discount amount from the original price. The amount of the discount is the product of the discount rate and the original price.
__
discounted price = original price - (original price) × (discount rate)
You can calculate it this way, or you can factor out the original price:
discounted price = (origina price) × (1 - discount rate)
= $37.50 × (1 -0.30) = $37.50 × 0.70 = $26.25
The sale price of the sweater is $26.25.
__
Additional comment
The amount of the discount is ...
$37.50 × 0.30 = $11.25
which makes the discounted price be ...
$37.50 -11.25 = $26.25

Sheila is 1.7 m tall her son is 109 cm tall how many meters taller is Sheila than her son
Answer:
61 cm or 0.61 m
Step-by-step explanation:
1. One meter is 100 cm, so you multiply 1.7 meters by 100 to get 170 cm.
2. Now that they are in the same units, to get their difference in height, you subtract Sheila's height from her son's (170 - 109) and get 61 cm.
3. Convert it back to meters by dividing by 100 and you get their difference in height in meters, 0.61 m.
Answer:
0.61
Step-by-step explanation:
One cenimeter is equivalent to 0.01 meter.
109cm • 0.01 = 1.09m
1.7m - 1.09m = 0.61m
Sheila is 0.61m taller than her son
