The sum of two numbers is 4 times their difference. If one exceeds the other by 8, what are the numbers?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12, 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x and y, where x > y

According to the given information:

x + y = 4(x - y)

x + y = 4x - 4y

y + 4y = 4x - x

5y = 3x

[tex] y = \frac{3}{5}x.... (1)[/tex]

Since, one number exceeds the other by 8.

[tex] \implies x = y + 8\\\\

\implies y = x - 8.....(2)\\\\[/tex]

From equations (1) & (2)

[tex]x - 8 = \frac{3}{5} x \\ \\ 5(x - 8) = 3x \\ \\ 5x - 40 = 3x \\ \\ 5x - 3x = 40 \\ \\ 2x = 40 \\ \\ x = \frac{40}{2} \\ \\ \huge \purple{ \boxed{\implies x = 20}} \\ \\ \implies \: y = x - 8 = 20 - 8 \\ \\ \huge \pink{ \boxed{ \implies \: y = 12}}[/tex]

Logan and Nathan are shelving books at a public library. Logan shelves 5 books at a time, whereas Nathan shelves 6 books at a time. If they end up shelving the same number of books, what is the smallest number of books each could have shelved?

Answers

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Logan shelves 5 books and

Nathan shelves 6 books

They end shelving the same number of books.

To find:

Smallest number of books each could have shelved?

Solution:

First of all, let us have a look at the definition of Least Common Multiple(LCM) of two numbers.

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of two numbers is the minimum number which is divisible by both the numbers.

Now, looking at the statement of the given question.

We have to find the LCM of both the numbers actually.

Making factors of the numbers:

[tex]5=5\times 1[/tex]

[tex]6=2\times 3[/tex]

Nothing is common here, therefore the LCM is [tex]5\times 6 =\bold{30}[/tex].

Smallest number of books shelved = 30

Given the points (20,8) and (10,15) find the slope of the line that goes through them.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the slope by using this formula: [tex]\frac{y-y}{x-x} \\[/tex] (rise over run!)

If you plug in the numbers, it looks like this: [tex]\frac{8-15}{20-10} \\[/tex]

Manuel wants to go snowboarding with his friends. The closest ski and snowboard resort is approximately 20 miles west and 50 miles north from his house. Manuel picks up his friend who lives 15 miles south and 10 miles east of Manuel's house. How far are the two boys from the resort

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to calculate the displacement of the resort from Manuel's house using Pythagoras theorem.

S1 = √50²+20²

S1 = √2500+400

S1 = √2900

S1 = 53.85m

Next is to calculate the displacement of Manuel's friend house to Manuel's house.

S2 = √15²+10²

S2 = √225+100

S2 = √325

S2 = 18.03m

The displacement of the two boys from the resort will be ∆S = S2-S1

∆S = 53.84-18.03

∆S = 35.81m

find the perimeter & area of the rectangle

Answers

Answer:

Perimeter = [tex]34\sqrt{2}[/tex] feet

Area = 60 feet²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise the rules of perimeter and area of a rectangle

Perimeter = 2(Length + width)Area = Length × Width

→ From the given figure

∵ The length = [tex]\sqrt{8}[/tex] feet

∵ The width = 5[tex]\sqrt{18}[/tex] feet

→ Simplify the roots

∵ [tex]\sqrt{8}=\sqrt{(2)(2)(2)}[/tex]

∴ [tex]\sqrt{8}=2\sqrt{2}[/tex]

∴ The length = [tex]2\sqrt{2}[/tex] feet

∵ [tex]5\sqrt{18}=5\sqrt{(3)(3)(2)}[/tex]

∴ [tex]5\sqrt{18}=5(3)\sqrt{2}=15\sqrt{2}[/tex]

∴ The width = [tex]15\sqrt{2}[/tex] feet

→ Perimeter = 2(Length + width)

∵ Perimeter = [tex]2[2\sqrt{2}+15\sqrt{2}][/tex]

∴ Perimeter = [tex]2[17\sqrt{2}][/tex]

∴ Perimeter = [tex]34\sqrt{2}[/tex] feet

→ Area = Length × Width

∵ Area = [tex]2\sqrt{2}[/tex] × [tex]15\sqrt{2}[/tex]

∴ Area = [tex](2)(15)(\sqrt{2})(\sqrt{2})=(30)(2)=60[/tex]

∴ Area = 60 feet²

Answers

Answer:

1) 57°

2) 142°

3) 92°

4) 125°

5) 111°

6) 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the 2 lines that look parallel in all of these problems, are actually parallel...

m<1 = 57° They are the same angle

m<HJK = 142° (again, same angle)

m<ABC = (4x = 3x + 23) solve for x

x = 23, then substitute 23 for x

4(23) = 92°

m<MPQ = (3x + 50 = 5x). solve for x

x = 25, then substitute 25 for x

3(25) + 50 = 125°

m<3 = 111° They are the same angle

m<4 = 90° If one angle is 90° where the lines cross, all of the angles are 90°
