On Tuesday Bob, Larry, and Joe studied for their Algebra test. Bob
studied for 12 minutes less than Larry, and Joe studied twice as long
as Bob. How many minutes did each student study if they studied a
total of 96 minutes?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Bob- 33, Larry- 21, Joe- 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the equation with x=the amount of time Larry spent studying. x+(x-12)+2(x-12)=96. Distribute and combine: 4x-36=96. Add 36 to both sides (4x=132), and then divide by 4 (x=33). Larry studied 33 minutes, subtract 12 to find Bob, and then double Bob's time to get Joe's study time.

Find a number, twice of which decreased by 7 gives 65.

Answers

Answer:

Number = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A number twice of which decreased by 7 gives 65.

Let the number be x.

Twice of the number is 2x.

ATQ,

2x - 7 = 65

We can solve the above equation.

Adding 7 both sides.

2x-7+7 = 65 +7

2x = 72

x = 36

So, the required number is 36.

Answers

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

just do 20x 6 and you get 120

Similar triangles may or may not be congruent

The area of triangle DEF is 800 square cm

The given parameters is

[tex]\triangle ABC \sim \triangle D EF[/tex]

This means that the triangles are similar.

The corresponding sides of the triangles are:

[tex]AC = 6[/tex]

[tex]DF = 20[/tex]

So, the scale factor (k) from ABC to DEF is:

[tex]k = \frac{D EF}{ABC}[/tex]

[tex]k = \frac{20}{6}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]k = \frac{10}{3}[/tex]

The area of triangle DEF is then calculated as follows:

Area = Area of triangle ABC * k^2

So, we have:

[tex]A =72 \times \frac{10}{3} \times \frac{10}{3}[/tex]

[tex]A = 800[/tex]

Hence, the area of triangle DEF is 800 square cm

In our amusement park that we built this week, the ride Diablo’s Domain had revenue of $250,000,000 in its first year as expected. The company paid $750,000 for insurance or $3 for every $1,000 in revenue. If the park is wildly successful and revenue increases by 25% in the second year and the rate of $3 for every $1,000 holds true, how much would it pay for insurance? Do you think it’s reasonable for insurance costs to increase proportionally? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

The amount to be paid for insurance will be $ 937,500. In this context, it is reasonable that insurance costs increase proportionally, as the ride will have a greater use and, therefore, a greater exposure to risk.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the amusement park Diablo's Domain ride generated $ 250,000,000 in revenue, and the company paid $ 750,000 in insurance for that game ($ 3 for every $ 1,000 in profit), to determine the amount of insurance that should be paid if the winnings increase by 25% and the same proportion of 3/1000 to be paid is maintained, the following calculation must be made:

(250,000,000 x 1.25) x (3/1000) = X

312,500,000 x 0.003 = X

937,500 = X

Therefore, the amount to be paid for insurance will be $ 937,500.

The Sugar Sweet Company will choose from two companies to transport its sugar to market. The first company charges $3604 to rent trucks plus an additional fee of $75.50 for each ton of sugar. The second company does not charge to rent trucks but charges $300.75 for each ton of sugar.

For what amount of sugar do the two companies charge the same?
tons
What is the cost when the two companies charge the same?
$

Answers

Answer: 14 tons

$3,860.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the amount of sugar transported.

First company:

The cost is $3157 truck rental plus $50.25 per ton of sugar.

Total cost = 3157 + 50.25x dollars

Second company:

There is no charge for truck rental, but it costs $275.75 per ton of sugar.

The total cost is

275.75x

When the two costs are the same, then

275.75x = 3157 +50.25x

225.5x = 3157

x = 14 tons

The total cost is 275.75*14 = $3,860.50

Answer:

16 pounds of sugar

The initial cost to transport it would be $4812

Okay

So lets do company 1=a

2=b

So the equation for company a is

3604+75.5x

The second one is

300.75x

Now I would find the LCM

So I just predicted (guess and check)

so obviously 15 can be a good shot but that off a little bit,

16

so if you plug in 16 for each options for X

3604+75.5*16= 4812

The second company

300.75*16=4812

SO their the same

So 4812 cost, 16 tons

The square ABCD has side length 20 cm,
E is the midpoint of BC,

20 cm
Work out the length of AE,
Give your answer correct to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

AE=22.4

Step-by-step explanation:

BE is 1/2 of BC

BC is 20 cm                 All sides of a square are equal

BE = 1/2 BC                  Property of a midpoint.

BE = 10

Now just use Pythagorus

AB^2 + BE^2 = AE^2

AE^2 = 20^2 + 10^2   Perform the sqrs

AE^2 = 400 + 100      Add the terms

AE^2 = 500                Take the square root of both sides

√AE^2 = √500

AE = 22.36

AE ≈ 22.4

Answers

Find total marbles:

8 + 15 + 17 = 40 total marbles.

There is 8 red, so picking red first would be 8/40, which can reduce to 1/5.

After taking 1 marble there would be 39 marbles left.

Picking blue would be 15/39, which reduces to 5/13

The probability of doing both is

1/5 x 5/13 = 5/65, which reduces to 1/13

The measure of angle HGI from the given rhombus is 35°.

What is a rhombus?

A rhombus can be defined as a special parallelogram as it fulfills the requirements of a parallelogram, i.e. a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. In addition to this, a rhombus has all four sides equal just like a square. That is why it is also known as a tilted square. Look at the image below to understand the relationship of rhombus shape with parallelogram and square.

The given quadrilateral FGHI is a rhombus.

In a rhombus, diagonals bisect each other at right angles.

Here, (7x-1)°+(4x+3)°+90°=180°

11x+92=180

11x=88

x=8

Now, 4x+3=35°

So, m∠HGI=35° (Alternate interior angles)

Therefore, the measure of angle HGI is 35°.
