One number exceeds another number by 6. One fourth of the sum of the two numbers is two less than the smaller.
Find the numbers.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

7 and 13

Step-by-step explanation:

let the 2 numbers be x and y , x > y , then

x = y + 6 → (1)

[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] (x + y) = y - 2 ( multiply both sides by 4 to clear the fraction )

x + y = 4y - 8 ( subtract 4y from both sides )

x - 3y = - 8 → (2)

Substitute x = y + 6 into (2)

y + 6 - 3y = - 8

- 2y + 6 = - 8 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

- 2y = - 14 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

y = 7

Substitute y = 7 into (1)

x = 7 + 6 = 13

The 2 numbers are 7 and 13

To find the value of g, we can expand the two binomials using the distributive property:

[tex](x+7)(x-4)\\= x(x-4)+7(x-4)\\= x^2-4x+7x-28\\= x^2+3x-28[/tex]

B) Mitochondrion: thylakoid membrane
C) Chloroplast; thylakoid membrane
D) Chloroplast: outer membrane​

Answers

Answer:

C) Chloroplast; thylakoid membrane

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is a biological science question

The light-dependent reactions also known as the light reactions take place at the location site of the chlorophyll of the plant cell, within the chloroplast thylakoid membrane, and involves the energizing of the electrons within the pigment molecules, the electrons are then transferred through a transport chain within the thylakoid membrane

The dark reactions take place inside the stroma

Find sin A, round to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

.92

Step-by-step explanation:

sin A = opp side/ hypotenuse

       

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse

a^2 + b^2 = c^2  where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

3^2 +7^2 = AC ^2

9+49 = AC ^2

58 = AC^2

Taking the square root

sqrt(58) = hypotenuse

sin A = 7/sqrt(58)

sin A =.91914503

sin A = .92

the 28th term of an ap is -5,find the common difference if the first term is 31​

Answers

Answer:

The common difference is -4/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the direct formula for an arithmetic sequence is given by:

[tex]\displaystyle x_n=a+d(n-1)[/tex]

Where n is the nth term, a is the initial term, and d is the common difference.

We are given that the first term a is 31.

We also know that the 28th term is -5. Hence, x₂₈ = -5. Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle x_{28}=-5=(31)+d(28-1)[/tex]

Solve for d. Simplify:

[tex]-5=31+27d[/tex]

Thus:

[tex]\displaystyle 27d=-36[/tex]

Divide both sides by 27. Hence, the common difference is:

[tex]\displaystyle d=-\frac{36}{27}=-\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

Answer:

-4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is equivalent to:

Find the slope of a line going through points (28,-5) and (1,31).

*Arithmetic sequences are linear. The common difference is the slope.

Any ways to find the slope line the points up and subtract vertically. Then put 2nd difference over 1st difference.

(28,-5)

(1,31)

---------subtracting

27, -36

So the slope or the common difference of this line or arithmetic sequence is -36/27. This reduces to -4/3.

A farm grew 19.8 tons of wheat in 2013. The farm's wheat output increased by 9.8% from 2013 to 2014 and by 5.1% from 2014 to 2015. Which expression represents a for estimating the total output of wheat, in tons, in 2015?

A. 20 + 10 + 5
B. 20(10)(5)
C. 20 + 1.1 + 1.05
D. 20(1.1)(1.05)

Answers

Answer: Choice D

Explanation:

The increase of 9.8% rounds to 10% when rounding to the nearest ten

An increase of 10% would use the multiplier 1.1

Think of it like saying 1 + 0.10 = 100% + 10%

Similarly, the 5.1% rounds to 5% and an increase of this amount will use the multiplier 1.05

So if we started with 20 items, then 20(1.1)(1.05) is the expression that estimates an increase of 10% followed by an increase of 5%. The order doesn't matter (so you could increase by 5% first, then 10% later).

a donkey baked 46 pies. 3/23 he ate himself, the rest of the pies he put evenly among 4 plates. how much pies are there in each plate?

Answers

Answer:40

step by step explanation

3*23÷46=6

46-6=40

there are 40 pies in each plate

Answer:

Answer: 10 pies on each plate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, to solve this problem we first need to find 3/23 of 46.

But before we do that, we need to know 1/23 of 46.

To solve this, we do 64 divided by 23 which equals 2.

then we multiple 2 by 3 to get 3/23 of 46 and that equals 6.

To find out how many pies remain, we subtract 6 pies from 46 pies, which gives us 40 pies. Then we divide 40 by 4, which is 10.

In order for the data in the table to represent a linear function with a rate of change of -8, what must be the value of a?

a = 2
a = 3
a = 19
a = 35​

Answers

Answer:

a = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

If the rate of change is -8, subtract 8 from your y value of 27. And if 19 is correct, you should be able to subtract 8, and get 11 as the next number in the function, which you do, so 19 is the value of a.

Katie approximated the volume and the surface area for a ball she was using for some exercises by assuming the ball is a sphere. She was surprised when the numerical value of the volume in cubic inches was the same as the numerical value of the surface area in square inches. What is the radius of the ball?

Answers

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of sphere:

4/3 * pi * r^3

Surface Area of Sphere:

4 * pi * r^2

So if V = SA

4/3 * pi * r^3 = 4 * pi * r^2

4/3 * pi * r^3 = 4 * pi * r^2

1/3 * r^3 = r^2

1/3 * r = 1

r = 3

Volume is a three-dimensional scalar quantity. The radius of the ball is equal to 3 units.

What is volume?

A volume is a scalar number that expresses the amount of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface.

The volume of the sphere is given by the formula,

V = (4/3)πR³

The surface area of the sphere is given by the formula,

Surface area = 4πR²

Also, it is mentioned that the numerical value of the volume in cubic inches was the same as the numerical value of the surface area in square inches. Therefore,

(4/3)πR³ = 4πR²

R³/3 = R²

R = 3

Hence, the radius of the ball is equal to 3 units.

Determine the measure of the interior angle at vertex C. PLEASE HELP ASAP

Answers

Answer:

B.  120°

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of the measures of the interior angle of a polygon with n sides:

(n - 2)180

We have a pentagon, a 5-sided polygon, so n = 5.

We first find the sum of the measures of the angles of any pentagon.

(5 - 2)180 = 3(180) = 540

From the figure, we add the measures of the 5 angles and set the sum equal to 540°.

3x + 4x + 4x + 4x + 3x = 540°

18x = 540°

Divide both sides by 18.

x = 30°

At the beginning of the chemistry experiment, Lisa measured the temperature of a liquid to be -5°C. During the experiment, she measured the liquid 3 times and the results showed, its dropped 9°C, rose 25°C, and drop 15°C. What was the liquid temperature at the end of the experiment?

Answers

Answer:

-4°C

Step-by-step explanation:

At the beginning of the chemistry experiment the temperature of the liquid was -5°C and it dropped 9°C so you do:

-5°C - 9°C = -14°C

The answer is -14°C for the first part of the question because when you are subtracting a positive number from a negative number you have to add the two numbers together but your answer will always be a negative number.

Then you add 25°C to -14°C:

-14°C + 25°C = 11

Because when adding a negative number to a positive number that is bigger than the negative number you have to subtract but your answer will always be a positive number, however if the positive number is smaller than the negative number your answer will be a negative number.

Then you subtract 11°C from 15°C:

11°C - 15°C = -4°C

Because when you subtract a number that is bigger than the first number you get a negative number.
