7) Joey is four years older than Billy. The sum of
their ages is 24.
a) Write a system of equations to represent
this situation. Let j=Joey's age and
b=Billy's age.
b) Solve to determine the age of both Billy and
Joey

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Joey is 14, Billy is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations you can use is:

j=b+4

j+b=24

(b+4)+b=24

2b+4=24

2b=20

b=10

j=10+4

j=14

Answer 2

Answer: j+b=24

J=b+4

Step-by-step explanation: (b+4) + b=24

You’re going to substitue J=b+4 into j+b=24

you’re going to get joeys age 14, Billy’s age 10

Gabriel is raising money for a school trip by selling lollipops and bags of chips. The
price of each lollipop is $1 and the price of each bag of chips is $1.50. Yesterday
Gabriel made $30 from selling a total of 26 lollipops and bags of chips. Graphically
solve a system of equations in order to determine the number of lollipops sold, 2,
and the number of bags of chips sold, y.

Answers

The Answer is A................

Answer:

There will be 2 bags of chips sold

Step-by-step explanation:

A system of equation is a collection of one or more equation involving the same variables.

Now , according to question :

since , he had sold 26 lollipop , then total money he made from lollipop is : 26 * $1 = $26

Let us assume he sold x number of chips

money made from chips = $ 1.50 * x

Total money made : $30                          (Given )

equation according to question will be

26 + 1.50 x = 30

x= 2.7

Since , number of packets  can never be in decimal hence, rounding off to 2 packets

x= 2

H. - 2
J. 0
K. 5

SHOW EXPLANATION

Answers

Answer:

Option (K)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

Coordinates of the point T(x, y),

x-coordinate shows the distance (ST) of point T horizontally from origin and y-coordinate show the vertical distance (OS) of point T from the origin.

If OS = ST, x and y coordinates should be same in measure.

For the point (k, 5),

OS = 5 and ST = k

Since, OS = ST,

Therefore, k = 5

Option (K) will be the correct option.

Triangle R S Q is shown. Angle R S Q is cut by perpendicular bisector l through point S and through midpoint T. The length of line segment R T is x, the length of line segment T Q is 8, the length of line segment Q S is 10, and the length of line segment R S is 10. What is the length of segment TR?

Answers

Answer:

RT = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters for the triangle are;

The vertices of the given triangle = RSQ

The point on the perpendicular bisector = Pont S and T

The length of the line segment RT = x

The length of the line segment TQ = 8

The length of the line segment QS = 10

The length of the line segment RS = 10

Given that I is a perpendicular bisector that passes through the vertex S, we have;

The line I bisects the segment RQ at point T into equal segments TQ and TR

Therefore, TQ ≅ TR and we have TQ = TR = 8

TR = 8

TR = RT (reflexive property)

Therefore; RT = 8.

A researcher found that 55% of families in the United States have one child under the age of 21, 22% have two children under the age of 21, 15% have three children under the age of 21, 5% have 4 children under the age of 21and 3% have 5 or more children under the age of 21. If a family is selected at random, what is the probability the family has 1 or 3 children under the age of 21?

Answers

Answer:

67% or 0.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

P(1 child under age 21) = 55%

P(2 children under age 21) = 22%

P(3 children under age 21) = 15%

P(4 children under age 21) = 5%

P(5 or more children under age 21) = 3%

If a family is selected at random, what is the probability the family has 1 or 3 children under the age of 21?

P(1 or 3 children under age 21):

Either the selected family has 1 child under 21 years of age OR the selected family has 3 children under 21 years of age ;

P(1 child under age 21) + P(3 children under age 21)

= 55% + 15%

= 67% = 0.67

Answers

Answer:

a. [tex]Savings = \$16[/tex]

b. [tex]Price = \$96[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a):

[tex]Price = \$80[/tex]

[tex]Coupon = 20\%[/tex]

Required

Determine her savings.

[tex]Savings = Coupon * Price[/tex]

[tex]Savings = 20\% * \$80[/tex]

[tex]Savings = \$16[/tex]

Solving (a):

[tex]Price = \$120[/tex]

[tex]Coupon = 20\%[/tex]

Required

Determine the price before tax

First, we need to determine her savings

[tex]Savings = Coupon * Price[/tex]

[tex]Savings = 20\% * \$120[/tex]

[tex]Savings = \$24[/tex]

The price before tax is calculated as follows:

[tex]Price = \$120 - \$24[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

2 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

−45+3310=?

The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.

LCD(-4/5, 33/10) = 10

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1.

(−45×22)+(33/10×11)=?

Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes

−8/10+33/10=?

The two fractions now have like denominators so you can add the numerators.

Then:

−8+33/10=25/10

This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 25 and 10 using

GCF(25,10) = 5

25÷5/10÷5=5/2

The fraction

52

is the same as

5÷2

Convert to a mixed number using

long division for 5 ÷ 2 = 2R1, so

52=212

Therefore:

−4/5+33/10= 2 1/2

Alvin and Simon shared £540 in the ratio 4:5. Alvin gave half of his share to Theo. Simon gave a tenth of his share to Theo. What fraction of the £540 did Theo receive.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{5}{18}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio, 4 + 5 = 9 parts

Divide the amount by 9 to find the value of one part of the ratio

£540 ÷ 9 = £60 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , thus

4 parts = 4 × £60 = £240 ← Alvin's share

5 parts = 5 × £60 = £300 ← Simon's share

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × £240 = £120

[tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex] × £300 = £30

Theo receives £120 + £30 = £150 , which as a fraction is

Step-by-step explanation:

The magnitude $M$ of an earthquake is measured using the formula $M=\log(\frac{x}{c})$ , where $x$ is the measured amplitude of a seismic wave and $c$ is the reference amplitude of one micron. Two earthquakes are measured. The amplitude of a seismic wave in the first earthquake is 15 times the amplitude of a seismic wave in the second earthquake. How much greater is the magnitude of the first earthquake than the second earthquake? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

1.18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the Magnitude of an earth quake model :

M = log(x/c)

x = measured amplitude ; c = reference amplitude

Amplitude of seismic wave in first earthquake = 15 amplitude of seismic wave in second

Let amplitude of seismic wave in first earthquake = x1

amplitude of seismic wave in second earthquake = x2

x1 = 15 * x2 = 15x2

Hence ;

1st earthquake magnitude :

M1 = log(a/c)

2nd earthquake magnitude :

M2 = log(15a/c)

M1 - M2

Log(x1/c) - log(x2/c)

Using the quotient rule

Log(x1) - log(c) - [log(x2) - log(c)]

Log(x1) - log(c) - log(x2) + log(c)

Log(x1) - log(x2)

Substituting x1 = 15x2

Log(x1) = log(15x2)

Seperating using product rule:

Log(x1) = log(15*x2) = log(15) + log(x2)

Hence,

log(15) + log(x2) - log(x2)

Log(15) - 0

= 1.1760

= 1.18 (nearest hundredth)
