Two positive numbers have a difference of 8. The larger number is two more than twice the smaller. Find the two numbers

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:   6 & 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the bigger number be 'p' and the smaller number 'p'.

Since the numbers have a difference of 8, then  p - q = 8

& since the larger number is two more than twice the smaller, then

                                                                                                        p = 2q + 2

⇒   (2q + 2) - q = 8                       [by substituting for equation for p]

                     q = 6

Since q = 6,

⇒  p - 6 = 8

          p = 14

∴ the smaller number is 6 and the bigger 14

simplify 4b²−2b+7b−6b+1

Answers

Answer:

=4b^2−b+1

Step-by-step explanation:

4b2+−2b+7b+−6b+1

4b2+−2b+7b+−6b+1=(4b2)+(−2b+7b+−6b)+(1)

=4b^2−b+1

given:

4b²−2b+7b−6b+1

solution:

first combine light terms.

[tex] {4b}^{2} - 2b + 7b - 6b + 1[/tex]

light terms equal:

[tex] - 2b + 7b - 6b[/tex]

let's solve:

[tex] {4b}^{2} - 2b + 7b - 6b + 1[/tex]

[tex] = { 4b}^{2} - b + 1[/tex]

At 109°F, a certain insect chirps at a rate of 77 times per minute, and at 117°F, they chirp 101 times per
minute. Write an equation in slope-intercept form that represents the situation.

The equation that represents this situation is

Answers

Answer:

y=3x-250

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form: y=mx+b

Step 1) to find slope, use (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(101-77)/(117-109) = 3

m = 3

Step 2) determine y-intercept (b)

109 * 3 = 327

77-327 = -250

b=-250

y=3x-250

4. Each morning you do a combination of aerobics, which burns about 12 calories per

minute, and stretching, which burns about 4 calories per minute. Your goal is to burn

416 calories during a 60-minute workout. How long should you spend on each type of

exercise to burn the 416 calories?

Answers

22 minutes is spent doing aerobics and 38 minutes doing stretching

Let x represent the amount of time spent doing aerobics, Let y represent the amount of time spent doing stretching.

Since the goal is to do a 60-minute workout, hence:

x + y = 60     (1)

Also, 416 calories needs to be burnt hence:

12x + 4y = 416    (2)

We need to solve equation 1 and 2 simultaneously; multiply equation 1 by 4 and subtract the result from equation 2, hence:

8x = 176

x = 22 minutes

Put x = 22 in (1)

22 + y = 60

y = 38 minutes

Therefore 22 minutes is spent doing aerobics and 38 minutes doing stretching.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sn = n/2(2a+(n-1)d)

a=6

a+ 4d= 18

6 +4d= 18

4d = 12

d = 3

162= n/2(12+(n -1)3)

324=n(12 + 3n-3)

324=12n + 3n^2 - 3n

3n^2 + 9n-324=0

3n^2+ 36n-27n -324 =0

3n(n+12) -27(n+12)= 0

3n-27 =0; n+ 12=0

n=9 ; n= -12

since n can't be negative n=9

QX =
Q

Answers

Answer:

y=5

AQ=11

QX=14

Q is not a midpoint

Step-by-step explanation:

A line segment can be divided into equal or unequal segments

The values of x, AQ and QX are 5, 11 and 14.

The given parameters are:

[tex]\mathbf{AX = 25}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{AQ = 2y + 1}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{QX = 3y - 1}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{AX = 25}[/tex] can be rewritten as:

[tex]\mathbf{AQ + QX =25}[/tex]

Substitute values for AQ and QX

[tex]\mathbf{2y + 1 + 3y - 1 =25}[/tex]

Execute like terms

[tex]\mathbf{5y =25}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 5

[tex]\mathbf{y =5}[/tex]

Substitute 5 for y in [tex]\mathbf{AQ = 2y + 1}[/tex] and [tex]\mathbf{QX = 3y - 1}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{AQ = 2 \times 5 + 1 = 11}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{QX = 3 \times 5 - 1 = 14}[/tex]

Hence, the values of x, AQ and QX are 5, 11 and 14.
