What do you add to 2 7/8 to make 5

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

7/8 is the same as 0.875 and therefore you need 0.125 also known as 1/8 to make it a whole number. When you add it to the already existing whole 2 you get three. Subtract three from five to make two which is what you need to add on top to finally get 5.

Proportion problems

An example is:

y is directly proportional to x such that: y=4 when x = 2;

Derive the equation

For direct proportions, we have:

[tex]y\ \alpha\ x[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]y = kx[/tex]

Make k the subject

[tex]k = y/x[/tex]

So:

[tex]k = 4/2 =2[/tex]

So, the equation is:

[tex]y = kx[/tex]

[tex]y = 2x[/tex]

Assume the above question is for inverse proportion

The variation will be:

[tex]y\ \alpha\ \frac{1}{x}[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]y\ = \frac{k}{x}[/tex]

Make k the subject

[tex]k =x*y[/tex]

[tex]k =2* 4 = 8[/tex]

So, the equation is:

[tex]y\ = \frac{k}{x}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{8}{x}[/tex]

How to solve this problem what do I do

Answers

Answer:  P + 6 - s

=================================================

Explanation:

We undo the "minus 6" by adding 6 to both sides.

Also, we undo the "+s" by subtracting s from both sides

-----------

So we have these steps

P = r+s-6

P+6 = r+s-6+6 .... adding 6 to both sides

P+6 = r+s

r+s = P+6

r+s-s = P+6-s ..... subtracting s from both sides

r = P + 6 - s

Answer:

P+6-s=r

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the equation P=r+s-6 and we need to solve for r

To do that, we need to isolate r onto one side, and have everything else on the other.

Here is the equation:

P=r+s-6

start by adding 6 to both sides to clear it from the right side

P+6=r+s

now subtract s from both sides to clear it from the right side

P+6-s=r

now everything that isn't r is on the left side, and r is by itself on the right side. P+6-s=r is the answer.

Hope this helps!

The radius of a right circular cone is increasing at a rate of 1.4 in/s while its height is decreasing at a rate of 2.4 in/s. At what rate is the volume of the cone changing when the radius is 140 in. and the height is 186 in.

Answers

Answer:

The volume is increasing at a rate of 27093 cubic inches per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cone:

THe volume of a cone, with radius r and height h, is given by:

[tex]V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2h[/tex]

In this question:

We have to differentiate implictly is function of t, so the three variables, V, r and h, are differenciated. So

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{\pi r^2}{3}\frac{dh}{dt} + \frac{2\pi rh}{3}\frac{dr}{dt}[/tex]

The radius of a right circular cone is increasing at a rate of 1.4 in/s while its height is decreasing at a rate of 2.4 in/s.

This means that [tex]\frac{dr}{dt} = 1.4, \frac{dh}{dt} = -2.4[/tex]

Radius is 140 in. and the height is 186 in.

This means that [tex]r = 140, h = 186[/tex]

At what rate is the volume of the cone changing?

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{\pi r^2}{3}\frac{dh}{dt} + \frac{2\pi rh}{3}\frac{dr}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{\pi (140)^2}{3}(-2.4) + \frac{2\pi 140*186}{3}1.4[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = -0.8\pi(140)^2 + 62*2\pi*1.4*140[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = 27093[/tex]

Positive, so increasing.

The volume is increasing at a rate of 27093 cubic inches per second.

June, Gavyn and Alex share some sweets in the ratio 5:5:3. June gets 22 more sweets than Alex. How many sweets are there altogether?

Answers

Answer:

Let June's sweets be 5x.

Then Gavyn's sweets will be 5x.

And Alex's sweets will be 3x.

5x = 3x + 22

2x = 22

x = 11

So June has 5 x 11 = 55 sweets

Gavyn has 5 x 11 = 55 sweets

And Alex have 3 x 11 = 33 sweets

Total

= 55 + 55 + 33

= 143 sweets

The radius of a sphere is increasing at a rate of 2 mm/s. How fast is the volume increasing (in mm3/s) when the diameter is 60 mm?

Answers

Answer:

22608 mm³/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying chain rule,

dV/dt = (dV/dr)(dr/dt)............... Equation 1

Where dV/dr = rate at which the volume is increasing

But,

V = 4πr³/3

Therefore,

dV/dr = 4πr²............... Equation 2

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

dV/dt = 4πr²(dr/dt).............. Equation 3

From the question,

Given: dr/dt = 2 mm/s, r = 60/2 = 30 mm

Consatant: π = 3.14

Substitute these values into equation 3

dV/dt = 4×3.14×30²×2

dV/dt = 22608 mm³/s

An office manager buys 2 office chairs and 4 file cabinets for $380. Next year she buys 4 office chairs and 6 file cabinets for $660. What is the cost of each office chair, c? What is the cost of each file cabinet, f? Explain how you fond the cost of each chair and file cabinet.

Answers

Answer:

16.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

file cabinet = 50

chair = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

x = chair

y = file cabinet

1st year, solve for x

2x+4y = 380

2x = 380 - 4y

x = 190 - 2y

2nd year

Now substitute x = 190 - 2y in your 2nd year formula

4x+6y = 660

4(190-2y)+6y = 660

760 - 8y + 6y = 660

-2y = -100

y = 50

The cost of the filling cabinet is 50 each

Now use the value for y (50) in your first formula to get x

2x+4y=380

2x+4*50=380

2x=380-200

2x=180

x=90

An employment agency specializing in temporary construction help pays heavy equipment operators $123 per day and general laborers $89 per day. If thirty-one people were hired and the payroll was $3507, how many heavy equipment
operators were employed? How many laborers?
The number of heavy equipment operators hired was
The number of general laborers hired was

Answers

Answer:

The number of operators is 22 and the number of laborers is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a 2 line equation system

I'll call the laborers "L" and the equipment operators "E"

The first line of the system is pretty much telling me that the number of laborers plus the number of operators is 31:

L + E = 31

Now we need to calculate the money:

Since we know that laborers are paid $89 per day we're gonna multiply them by that. Same thing with the operator, but the value is now $123

89L + 123E = 3507

Our two line system is like this:

L + E = 31

89L + 123E = 3507

We need either L or E to be the same in both of the equations so that when I subtract one from another I can find the value of one of the variables

I'll choose L cause it's the lower number, so I'll multiply the upper equation:

L+E=31 === *89 ====> 89L + 89E = 2.759

Now we have these equations:

89L + 89E = 2.759

89L + 123E = 3507

Now I'm gonna subtract the lower equation from the upper one:

89L - 89L + 123E - 89E = 3507 - 2759

Since L is now zero it disappears, and by making the other calculations we have:

34E = 748

E = 22

Since E = 22, we can use the value in our first equation:

E+L=31 ===> 22+L=31 ===> L=9

Got it! The number of operators is 22 and the number of laborers is 9.

If you wanna double check this you can calculate the amount of money they're paid, which should add up to $3507:

22 operators * $123 = $2706

9 laborers * $89 = $801

2706+801 = $3507

We're good

If this helped you at all, would it be too much asking for brainliest?

I would really appreciate it

This is a related rates problem from calculus using implicit differentiation. The main equation is going to be Pythagorean's Theorem and then the derivative of that. Pythagorean's Theorem is

[tex]x^2+y^2=c^2[/tex] where c is the hypotenuse and is a constant. Therefore, the derivative of this with respect to time, and using implicit differentiation is

[tex]2x\frac{dx}{dt}+2y\frac{dy}{dt}=0[/tex] and dividing everything by 2 to simplify a bit:

[tex]x\frac{dx}{dt}+y\frac{dy}{dt}=0[/tex]. Upon analyzing that equation, it looks like we need values for x, y, [tex]\frac{dx}{dt}[/tex], and [tex]\frac{dy}{dt}[/tex]. And here's what we were given:

[tex]\theta=45[/tex] and [tex]\frac{dx}{dt}=.5[/tex]  In the greater realm of things, that's nothing at all.

BUT we can use the right triangle and the angle we were given to find both x and y. The problem we are looking to solve is to

Find [tex]\frac{dy}{dt}[/tex] at the instant that [tex]\frac{dx}{dt}[/tex] = .5.

Solving for x and y:

[tex]tan45=\frac{x}{6}[/tex] and

6tan45 = x ( and since this is a 45-45-90 triangle, y = x):

[tex]6(\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2})=x=y[/tex] so

[tex]x=y=3\sqrt{2}[/tex] and now we can fill in our derivative. Remember the derivative was found to be

[tex]x\frac{dx}{dt}+y\frac{dy}{dt}=0[/tex] so

[tex]3\sqrt{2}(\frac{1}{2})+3\sqrt{2}\frac{dy}{dt}=0[/tex] and

[tex]\frac{3\sqrt{2} }{2}+3\sqrt{2} \frac{dy}{dt}=0[/tex] and

[tex]3\sqrt{2}\frac{dy}{dt}=-\frac{3\sqrt{2} }{2}[/tex] and multiplying by the reciprocal of the left gives us:

[tex]\frac{dy}{dt}=-\frac{3\sqrt{2} }{2}(\frac{1}{3\sqrt{2} })[/tex] so

[tex]\frac{dy}{dt}=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
