A balance scale is perfectly balanced with 2 cans of soda on one side and 1 can of soda and 8 ounces of sand on the other . How much does each can of soda weigh?

Answers

Answer 1

The balance scale is perfectly balanced when it sits perfectly

The weight of each can of soda is 8 ounces

How to determine the weight of the soda can

Represent the weight of the can with x.

On the first side, where there are 2 cans of soda.

The weight is 2x

On the other side, where there is 1 can of soda and 8 ounces of sand

The weight is x + 8

Since the balance scale is perfectly balanced, then we have the following equation

2x = x + 8

Subtract x from both sides

x = 8

Hence, the weight of each can of soda is 8 ounces

what is 3 1/4 - (-5/8)

Answers

Answer:

First we need to find a common denominator;

3 1/4 and -5/8 have a common denominator of 8

-5/8 already has 8 now we alter 3 1/4 to have 8 as the denominator as well.

if we make 3 1/4 into an improper fraction we would get 13/4

13/4 x 2/2 = 26/8, because 2 x 4 = 8 so we also apply that to the numerator

Now we have;

26/8 - (-5/8)

the two negatives combine to make a positive:

26/8 + 5/8

= 31/8 which simplifies to

3 7/8

AB, CD, and EF intersect at O. If CD is perpendicular to EF and m

Answers

Answer:

m(∠AOF) = 148°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

CD intersects line EF at a point O.

Line CD is perpendicular to the line EF.

m(∠AOE) = 32°

m(∠COE) = 90°

Since m(∠COE) = m(∠AOE) + m(∠AOC) = 90°

32° + m(∠AOC) = 90°

m(∠AOC) = 90° - 32° = 58°

m(∠AOF) = m(∠AOC) + m(∠COF)

               = 58° + 90°

               = 148°

Therefore, m(∠AOF) = 148° will be the answer.

Dr. David Smith lived 1/13 of his life as a child. He spent 4/39 of his life preparing for an outstanding
medical career. For 1/ 2 of his life, he was a successful surgeon in a famous children's hospital. Since his
retirement, he has lived 13 years on a comfortable pension. How old is he? (unrealistic answer))

Answers

Answer:

40 14/25 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, this certainly is fun.

First, to find the fraction of the doctor's life which 13 years represents, subtract the fractions from 1 (and in this case l stands for lifetime):

[tex]13 = (1 - (\frac{1}{13} + \frac{4}{39} + \frac{1}{2}))(l)[/tex]

[tex]13 = (\frac{25}{78})(l)[/tex]

So, multiply this equation by the reciprocal of 25/78 to isolate one of l:

[tex]13(\frac{78}{25}) = l[/tex]

[tex]l = 40\frac{14}{25}[/tex] years

Find the equation of the line that contains the point (-1,-7) and is parallel to the line 2x + 7y=9 . Write the equation in​ slope-intercept form, if possible.

Answers

Answer:

y=-2/7x-61/7

Step-by-step explanation:

convert to slope intercept form

2x+7y=9

7y=-2x+9

y=-2/7x+9/7

slope is -2/7

-7-2/7=-51/7

y=-2/7x-61/7

Answer:

[tex]y=-\frac{2}{7}x-\frac{51}{7}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the line 2x+7y=9

We want to find the equation of the line that contains the point (-1, -7), and that is parallel to the equation above

Parallel lines have the same slopes.

So we need to find the slope of 2x+7y=9

One way to do this is to convert 2x+7y=9, which is currently in standard form (ax+by=c) into slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

In slope-intercept form, y is isolated by itself, so let's start by moving 2x to the other side (it removes it from the left side)

2x+7y=9
-2x      -2x

____________
7y=-2x+9

Now divide both sides by 7

[tex]y=-\frac{2}{7} x + \frac{9}{7}[/tex]

in this equation, -2/7 is in the place of where m should be. This means that -2/7 is the slope of this line.

It is also the slope of the line parallel to it.

The instructions want us to write this equation in slope-intercept form, so let's plug -2/7 as m into the formula.

Here is the equation of the line so far:

[tex]y=-\frac{2}{7}x + b[/tex]

Now we need to find b.

As the equation contains the point (-1, -7), we can use it to help solve for b.

Substitute -1 as x and -7 as y into the equation

[tex]-7=-\frac{2}{7}(-1) + b[/tex]

Multiply

[tex]-7=\frac{2}{7} + b[/tex]

Subtract 2/7 from both sides

[tex]-\frac{51}{7} = b[/tex]

Substitute -51/7 as b in the equation

[tex]y=-\frac{2}{7}x-\frac{51}{7}[/tex]

Hope this helps!

The two shorter sides are the legs of the right triangles. Both are given for triangle B. Use Pythagorean Theorem or pythagorean triples(shortcut/special case) to show the missing side of Triangle A is also 5.

leg^2+ leg^2 = hyp^2

x^2 + 12^2 = 13^2

x^2 + 144 = 169

subtract 144.

x^2 = 25

square root both sides.

x = 5

The missing side of Triangle A is 5, same as triangle B.

Just to really show it. Calc the missing side of triangle B

5^2 + 12^2 = h^2

25 + 144 = h^2

169 = h^2

squareroot both sides.

13 = h

OR

[tex]\displaystyle \boxed{y = 2sin\:2x} \\ y = Asin(Bx - C) + D \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow D \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow \frac{C}{B} \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow |A| \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow 0 \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow 0 \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \hookrightarrow \boxed{\pi} \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{2}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow 2[/tex]

You will need the above information to help you interpret the graph. First off, keep in mind that although this looks EXACTLY like the sine graph, if you plan on writing your equation as a function of cosine, then there WILL be a horisontal shift, meaning that a C-term will be involved. As you can see, the photograph on the right displays the trigonometric graph of [tex]\displaystyle y = 2cos\:2x,[/tex]in which you need to replase "sine" with "cosine", then figure out the appropriate C-term that will make the graph horisontally shift and map onto the sine graph [photograph on the left], accourding to the horisontal shift formula above. Also keep in mind that the −C gives you the OPPOCITE TERMS OF WHAT THEY REALLY ARE, so you must be careful with your calculations. So, between the two photographs, we can tell that the cosine graph [photograph on the right] is shifted [tex]\displaystyle \frac{\pi}{4}\:unit[/tex]to the left, which means that in order to match the sine graph [photograph on the left], we need to shift the graph FORWARD [tex]\displaystyle \frac{\pi}{4}\:unit,[/tex]which means the C-term will be positive, and by perfourming your calculations, you will arrive at [tex]\displaystyle \boxed{\frac{\pi}{4}} = \frac{\frac{\pi}{2}}{2}.[/tex]So, the cosine graph of the sine graph, accourding to the horisontal shift, is [tex]\displaystyle y = 2cos\:(2x - \frac{\pi}{2}).[/tex]Now, with all that being said, in this case, sinse you ONLY have a graph to wourk with, you MUST figure the period out by using wavelengths. So, looking at where the graph hits [tex]\displaystyle [-2\frac{1}{4}\pi, -2],[/tex]from there to [tex]\displaystyle [-1\frac{1}{4}\pi, -2],[/tex]they are obviously [tex]\displaystyle \pi\:units[/tex]apart, telling you that the period of the graph is [tex]\displaystyle \pi.[/tex]Now, the amplitude is obvious to figure out because it is the A-term, but of cource, if you want to be certain it is the amplitude, look at the graph to see how low and high each crest extends beyond the midline. The midline is the centre of your graph, also known as the vertical shift, which in this case the centre is at [tex]\displaystyle y = 0,[/tex]in which each crest is extended two units beyond the midline, hence, your amplitude. So, no matter how far the graph shifts vertically, the midline will ALWAYS follow.
