Given:
LCM(a,b) = 90 and GCD(a,b) = 3.
b is three more than a.
To find:
The values of a and b.
Solution:
We have,
LCM(a,b) = 90
GCD(a,b) = HCF(a,b) = 3
According to the question,
[tex]b=a+3[/tex]
If a and b are two positive integers, then
[tex]a\times b=HCF(a,b)\times LCM(a,b)[/tex]
[tex]a\times (a+3)=3\times 90[/tex]
[tex]a^2+3a=270[/tex]
[tex]a^2+3a-270=0[/tex]
Splitting the middle terms, we get
[tex]a^2+18a-15a-270=0[/tex]
[tex]a(a+18)-15(a+18)=0[/tex]
[tex](a+18)(a-15)=0[/tex]
Using zero product property, we get
[tex]a+18=0[/tex] and [tex]a-15=0[/tex]
[tex]a=-18[/tex] and [tex]a=15[/tex]
a is a positive integer so it cannot be negative. So, a=15.
Now,
[tex]b=a+3[/tex]
[tex]b=15+3[/tex]
[tex]b=18[/tex]
Therefore, the value of a is 15 and the value of b is 18.

Step-by-step explanation:
I am having a little trouble reading the numbers, but I think that I see
[tex]\frac{7^{2} 7^{8} }{7^{4} }[/tex]
If we wrote this in expanded form, it would look like:
[tex]\frac{7x7x7x7x7x7x7x7x7x7}{7x7x7x7}[/tex] How many 7s are on the top? 10 That is the answer to a. The product of powers principle tells us that if we are multiplying powers with the same bases we add the exponents 2 + 8 = 10
[tex]\frac{^{10} }{7^{4} }[/tex]
Now it looks like
[tex]\frac{7x7x7x7x7x7x7x7x7x7}{7x7x7x7}[/tex] if we cross the 7's out in the top and the bottom, we are left with 6 7's on the top. That is the answer to b.
The quotient of powers principle tells us that if we are dividing powers with the same bases, we can subtract the exponents (10 -4 = 6)
Four times a number, increased by one, is between negative seven and seventeen. Find all the numbers
Answer:
The numbers are:
{-1, 0, 1, 2, 3}
Step-by-step explanation:
Note: I am assuming "between" does not include the endpoints.
Given the statement
'Four times a number, increased by one, is between negative seven and seventeen'
Let us break down the word statement into small pieces and then combine them to write it into an algebraic expression.
Let x be the number.
4 times a number = 4x
Increase by 1 = 4x+1
between negative seven and seventeen ⇒ -7 < 4x+1 < 17
Thus, the combined statement can be written in an algebraic expression.
-7 < 4x+1 < 17
solving the inequality expression
[tex]-7 < 4x+1 < 17[/tex]
Add -1 to all parts
[tex]-7+-1<4x+1+-1<17+-1[/tex]
[tex]-8<4x<16[/tex]
Divide all parts by 4
[tex]\frac{-8}{4}<\frac{4x}{4}<\frac{16}{4}[/tex]
[tex]-2<x<4[/tex]
Thus, the numbers are:
{-1, 0, 1, 2, 3}
i.e
[tex]-7<4x+1<17\quad :\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:-2<x<4\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:\left(-2,\:4\right)\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

Solve for x
2|x-1|=1/2x+8
Answer:
x = 20/3 or x = -12/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x over the real numbers:
2 abs(x - 1) = x/2 + 8
Divide both sides by 2:
abs(x - 1) = 1/2 (x/2 + 8)
Split the equation into two possible cases:
x - 1 = 1/2 (x/2 + 8) or x - 1 = 1/2 (-x/2 - 8)
Expand out terms of the right-hand side:
x - 1 = x/4 + 4 or x - 1 = 1/2 (-x/2 - 8)
Subtract x/4 - 1 from both sides:
(3 x)/4 = 5 or x - 1 = 1/2 (-x/2 - 8)
Multiply both sides by 4/3:
x = 20/3 or x - 1 = 1/2 (-x/2 - 8)
Expand out terms of the right-hand side:
x = 20/3 or x - 1 = -x/4 - 4
Add x/4 + 1 to both sides:
x = 20/3 or (5 x)/4 = -3
Multiply both sides by 4/5:
Answer: x = 20/3 or x = -12/5

3y + 2x= 12
36 - 9y = -6x
Answer:
The solution to the system of equations be:
[tex]y=4,\:x=0[/tex]
As the consistent system of equations has only one solution, it is independent.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the system of equations
[tex]3y + 2x= 12[/tex]
[tex]36 - 9y = -6x[/tex]
solving the system of equations
[tex]\begin{bmatrix}3y+2x=12\\ 36-9y=-6x\end{bmatrix}[/tex]
Arrange equation variables for elimination
[tex]\begin{bmatrix}3y+2x=12\\ -9y+6x=-36\end{bmatrix}[/tex]
[tex]\mathrm{Multiply\:}3y+2x=12\mathrm{\:by\:}3\:\mathrm{:}\:\quad \:9y+6x=36[/tex]
[tex]\begin{bmatrix}9y+6x=36\\ -9y+6x=-36\end{bmatrix}[/tex]
so
[tex]-9y+6x=-36[/tex]
[tex]+[/tex]
[tex]\underline{9y+6x=36}[/tex]
[tex]12x=0[/tex]
[tex]\begin{bmatrix}9y+6x=36\\ 12x=0\end{bmatrix}[/tex]
solve 12x=0 for x
[tex]12x=0[/tex]
Divide both sides by 12
[tex]\frac{12x}{12}=\frac{0}{12}[/tex]
[tex]x=0[/tex]
[tex]\mathrm{For\:}9y+6x=36\mathrm{\:plug\:in\:}x=0[/tex]
[tex]9y+6\cdot \:0=36[/tex]
[tex]9y=36[/tex]
Divide both sides by 9
[tex]\frac{9y}{9}=\frac{36}{9}[/tex]
[tex]y=4[/tex]
Thus, the solution to the system of equations be:
[tex]y=4,\:x=0[/tex]
As the consistent system of equations has only one solution, it is independent.
A random sample of 25 fields of spring wheat has a mean yield of 27.6 bushels per acre and standard deviation of 5.69 bushels per acre. Determine the 98% confidence interval for the true mean yield. Assume the population is approximately normal.Step 1 of 2:Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.Step 2 of 2:Construct the 98% confidence interval. Round your answer to one decimal place.
Answer:
Step 1 z(c) = 2,323
CI = ( 25 ; 30,2 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Distribution:
Sample size n = 25
Sample mean μ = 27,6
Sample standard deviation s = 5,69
CI = 98 % then α = 1 - 0,98 α = 0,02 α/2 = 0,01
From z-table we don´t find z (score) for 0,01 directly, we need to interpolate between z = 2,32 and z = 2,33
For 0,0099 z score is 2,33
for 0,0102 z score is 2,32
Δ 0,0003 0,01
Then by rule of three
for Δ 0,0003 ⇒ 0,01
for Δ (0,01- 0,0102) ⇒ x
0,0003 0,01
0,0002 x
x = 0,0067
then z (score for 0,01) = 2,33 - 0,0067 z(c) = 2,3233
round to three decimal places z(c) = 2,323
Step 2:
CI = μ ± z(c) * s/√n ⇒ 27,6 ± (2,323 * 5,69)/5
CI = 27,6 ± 2,6436
round to one decimal place
CI = 27,6 ± 2,6
CI = ( 25 ; 30,2 )
Locate the point in the complex plane and express the number in polar form.
Answer:
We kindly invite you to see the result in the image attached below.
The number in polar form is [tex]z = 3\sqrt{5}\cdot e^{i\cdot 0.352\pi}[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
A complex number is represented by elements of the form [tex]a + i\,b[/tex], for all [tex]a[/tex], [tex]b[/tex] [tex]\in \mathbb{R}[/tex]. The first part of the sum is the real component of the complex number, whereas the second part of the sum is the imaginary component of the complex number. The real component is located on the horizontal axis and the imaginary component on the vertical axis.
Now we proceed to present the point on the graph: ([tex]a = 6[/tex], [tex]b = 3[/tex]) We kindly invite you to see the result in the image attached below.
The polar form of the complex number is defined by:
[tex]z = r\cdot e^{i\cdot \theta}[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]r[/tex] - Magnitude of the complex number, dimensionless.
[tex]\theta[/tex] - Direction of the complex number, measured in radians.
The magnitude and the direction of the complex number are defined by the following formulas:
Magnitude
[tex]r =\sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}}[/tex] (2)
Direction
[tex]\theta = \tan^{-1} \frac{b}{a}[/tex] (3)
If we know that [tex]a = 6[/tex] and [tex]b = 3[/tex], then the polar form of the number is:
[tex]r =\sqrt{6^{2}+3^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]r = 3\sqrt{5}[/tex]
[tex]\theta = \tan^{-1} \frac{6}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\theta \approx 0.352\pi \, rad[/tex]
[tex]z = 3\sqrt{5}\cdot e^{i\cdot 0.352\pi}[/tex]
The number in polar form is [tex]z = 3\sqrt{5}\cdot e^{i\cdot 0.352\pi}[/tex].

Answer:
The answer is 86 and 96 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
Train A
Distance traveled = d
time taken = 5 hours
rate traveled = r
Train B
Distance traveled = 910 - d
time taken = 5 hours
rate = r + 10
Formula
basically d = r * t
Solution
Train A: d/r = 5 or d = 5*r
Train B = (910 - d)/(r + 10) = 5 or
Substitute d = 5*r into Train B
(910 - 5*r)/(r + 10) = 5 Multiply both sides by r + 10
(910 - 5r) = 5 * (r + 10) Remove the brackets on both sides
910 - 5r = 5r + 50 Add 5r to both sides
910 = 5r + 5r + 50
910 = 10r + 50 Subtract 50 from both sides
910 - 50 = 10r Combine the left
860 = 10r
10r = 860 Divide by 10
r = 860/10
r = 86
r + 10 = 96
Check
Train A distance: 5*r = 5 * 86 = 430
Train B distance: 5*r = 5 * 96 = 480
Total = 910

A plane traveled 3900 miles with the wind in 6.5 hours and 3250 miles against the wind in the same amount of time. Find the speed of the plane in still air and the speed of the wind.
The speed of plane in still air will be 550 miles / hour and speed of wind will be 50 miles / hour.
It is given that a plane traveled 3900 miles in 6.5 hours with wind and 3250 miles in 6.5 hours against wind.
We have to find out the speed of plane in still air and speed of wind.
What is algebra ?
Algebra is the branch that deals with various symbols and the arithmetic operations such as addition , division , etc.
As per the question ;
Distance travelled with wind in 6.5 hours = 3900 miles
Distance travelled against wind in 6.5 hours = 3250 miles
Let's assume speed of plane in still air be P and speed of wind be W.
So;
The total rate with the wind is the plane speed plus the wind speed and against the wind is speed of plane minus speed of wind.
i.e.,
d = rt
⇒ 6.5 ( P + W ) = 3900 miles --- ---- --- --- -- ------- ----- --- Equation 1
and
⇒ 6.5 ( P - W ) = 3250 miles --- ---- --- --- -- ------- ----- --- Equation 2
Let's solve the equations to get value of P and W ;
i.e.,
P + W = 3900 / 6.5
or
P + W = 600
and
P - W = 3250 / 6.5
or
P - W = 500
adding both equations ; we get ;
2P = 1100
or
P = 550 miles / hour
And
W = 50 miles / hour
Thus , the speed of plane in still air will be 550 miles / hour and speed of wind will be 50 miles / hour.
