what’s the value for X?

Answer:

9 yards of each quilt.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of each quilt be 'x'.

Given:  

Length of green felt = 15 yards

Length of blue felt = 12 yards

Total number of quilts = 3

Total length of all the quilts in terms of 'x' is given as:

[tex]Total\ length=x+x+x=3x ----(1)[/tex]

Total length is also equal to the sum of the lengths of green and blue felts. So,

[tex]Total\ length=15+12=27--- (2)[/tex]

Now, equating equations (1) and (2), we get:

[tex]3x=27\\\\x=\frac{27}{3}\\\\x=9 [/tex]

Therefore, the length of each quilt is 9 yards.

Answer:

length 8 feet and width 8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets x  be the length and width of the sheet

An open box is to be constructed from a square piece of sheet metal by removing a square of side 2 feet from each corner

so height is 2 feet

length of the box is x-4 feet

width of the box is also x-4 feet

Volume of the box is length times width times height

[tex]V= (x-4)(x-4)2[/tex]

[tex]32=2 (x-4)^2[/tex]

divide both sides by 2

[tex]16=(x-4)^2[/tex]

take square root on both sides

[tex]4=x-4[/tex]

Add 4 on both sides

[tex]x=8[/tex]

So dimension of the sheet is

length 8 feet and width 8 feet

Answer:

b)

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation between amount of eroded soil and flow rate would be positive because the slope is positive. The correlation coefficient cannot be determine using the given information as the information is not enough.

If we have data value or standard deviation for y and standard deviation x then the correlation coefficient can be calculated. From the given regression equation amount of eroded sol = 0.4 + 1.3x (where x is flow rate), the intercept=0.4 and slope=1.3.

We can only tell the sign of correlation coefficient by considering the sign of slope which is positive in the given scenario.

Hence, the correlation is positive but exact value cannot be determine.

Answer:

  (x, y) = (2, 28.8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Your ability to do arithmetic should not be limited to integers. Here we see the coefficients of y are related by a factor of -5, so multiplying the first equation by 5 can make the y-terms cancel when that is added to the second equation.

  5(1.3x +0.5y) +(-0.7x -2.5y) = 5(17) +(-73.4)

  6.5x +2.5y -0.7x -2.5y = 85 -73.4 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  5.8x = 11.6 . . . . . . collect terms

  x = 11.6/5.8 = 2 . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

  1.3(2) +0.5y = 17 . . . . . . substitute for x in the first equation

  0.5y = 14.4 . . . . . . subtract 2.6

  y = 28.8 . . . . . . . . multiply by 2

The solution is (x, y) = (2, 28.8).

Answer:x = 2

y = 28.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of simultaneous equations is expressed as

1.3x + 0.5y = 17 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1

-0.7 - 2.5y = -73.4 - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2

The first step multiply all the terms by 10 in order to eliminate the decimal points. The equations become

13x + 5y = 170 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1

-7 - 25y = -734 - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2

Then we would multiply both rows by numbers which would make the coefficients of x to be equal in both rows.

Multiplying equation 1 by 7 and equation 2 by 13, it becomes

91x + 35y = - 1190

91x + 325y = 9542

Subtracting, it becomes

- 290y = - 8352

y = - 8352/- 290 = 28.8

Substituting y = 28.8 into equation 1, it becomes

13x + 5 × 28.8 = 170

13x + 144 = 170

13x = 170 - 144 = 26

x = 26/13 = 2

Answer: the population in 2005 is

199393207

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for exponential growth which is expressed as

A = P(1 + r/n)^ nt

Where

A represents the population after t years.

n represents the periodic interval at which growth is recorded.

t represents the number of years.

P represents the initial population.

r represents rate of growth.

From the information given,

P = 173 million

A = 178 million

t = 1997 - 1995 = 2 years

n = 1

Therefore

178 × 10^6 = 173 × 10^6(1 + r/1)^2 × 1

178 × 10^6/173 × 10^6 = (1 + r)^2

1.0289 = (1 + r)^2

Taking square root of both sides, it becomes

√1.0289 = √(1 + r)^2

1 + r = 1.0143

r = 1.0143 - 1 = 0.0143

Therefore, in 2005,

t = 2005 - 1995 = 10

A = 173 × 10^6(1 + 0.0143)^10

A = 173 × 10^6(1.0143)^10

A = 199393207

Answer:Kathy is correct

Step-by-step explanation: We need to solve both equations separately in order to determine with certainty which one is correct and which one is not.

Kevin thinks the new equation should be

3(6x-1) + 2y = 43

This can now be solved as follows;

18x - 3 + 2y = 43

Add 3 to both sides of the equation

18x - 3 + 3 + 2y = 43 + 3

18x + 2y = 46

2(9x + y) = 46 (factorize the left hand side of the equation by 2)

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

9x + y = 46

The variables remain unsolved

On the other hand, Kathy thinks the new equation should be

3x + 2(6x - 1) = 43

This can now be solved as follows;

3x + 12x - 2 = 43

Collect like terms (in this equation, x)

15x - 2 = 43

Add 2 to both sides of the equation

15x - 2 + 2 = 43 + 2

15x = 45

Divide both sides of the equation by 15

x = 3

In essence, Kathy's equation has a solution (x=3) while that of Kevin remains unsolved

Final answer:

Neither Kevin nor Katy's equations are correct in the context of solving a system of linear equations, as they do not logically combine the given equations correctly.

Explanation:

The question revolves around which sibling is correct in forming a new equation to solve a system of linear equations. To determine this, we need to see which sibling correctly used the properties of equality to combine or manipulate equations. Kevin's equation, 3(6x-1)+2y=43, is an attempt to modify an existing equation by distributing a 3. Katy's equation, 3x+2(6x-1)=43, seems to combine different parts of the given equations.

Upon closer inspection, neither Kevin nor Katy is entirely correct because their proposed equations do not logically follow from the given set. To solve for a system of equations, we would typically add, subtract, multiply, or divide entire equations by constants or variables to eliminate one variable, so we can solve for the other.

Step-by-step explanation:

Final answer:

Billy and Ken both ran 1/4 of the training course before it started raining, making the distance they ran identical; neither ran further than the other.

Explanation:

Comparison of Distances Run by Billy and Ken

To determine which cross-country star, Billy or Ken, ran the furthest, we need to calculate the fractions of the total distance each one ran. Firstly, we'll look at Billy. Billy intended to run 3/4 of the course and finished 1/3 of his planned run. Therefore, the actual distance Billy ran is (3/4) × (1/3).

Now, for Ken. Ken planned to run 1/2 of the course and completed 1/2 of his intended distance. Hence, Ken's actual distance is (1/2) × (1/2). Calculating both distances:

Billy's distance: (3/4) × (1/3) = 1/4

Ken's distance: (1/2) × (1/2) = 1/4

Both Billy and Ken ran 1/4 of the total training course, hence they ran the same distance before it started raining. Therefore, neither ran further than the other.

Step-by-step explanation:

Size of column = 6 inch x 6 inch x 8 ft

Size of column = 0.5 ft x 0.5 ft x 8 ft

Volume of column = 0.5 x 0.5 x 8 = 2 ft³

Specific weight of concrete = 62.4 lb/ft³

Mass = Volume x Specific weight

Mass = 2 x 62.4

Mass = 124.8 lb = 124.8 x 0.454 = 56.66 kg

Weight = 56.66 x 9.81 = 555.83 N

Weight of column is 555.83 N

Answer:

2 hours and 6 minutes. Second option

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions

If two variables are proportional, it's easy to find the value of one of them knowing the value of the other and the proportion ratio. We know that each day our clock loses 6 minutes per day. It gives us the ratio between time lost vs days passed.

Three weeks (21 days) from now, from now, the clock will be behind a total time of 6 * 21 = 126 minutes.  

Two hours are 120 minutes, thus the time behind is 2 hours and 6 minutes. Second option

The clock will be behind 3 weeks later by 2 hours and 6 minutes.

To find out how much time the clock will be behind 3 weeks later, we first need to calculate the total amount of time the clock will lose in 3 weeks. Since the clock loses 6 minutes per day, we can multiply this by the number of days in 3 weeks (21 days). 6 minutes per day x 21 days = 126 minutes.

Next, we convert the minutes into hours and minutes. There are 60 minutes in an hour, so we divide the 126 minutes by 60 to get 2 hours and a remainder of 6 minutes.

Therefore, the clock will be behind 3 weeks later by 2 hours and 6 minutes.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If p and w represent the speeds of the plane and wind, respectively, the speed into the wind is ...

  p - w = (3000 mi)/(6 h) = 500 mi/h

And, the speed with the wind is ...

  p + w = (3000 mi)/(5 h) = 600 mi/h

Adding these two equations gives us ...

  2p = 1100 mi/h

  p = 550 mi/h . . . . . . . divide by 2

Then the wind speed is ...

  w = 600 mi/h - p = (600 -550) mi/h

  w = 50 mi/h

The rate of the plane in still air is 550 mi/h; the rate of the wind is 50 mi/h.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let speed of plane in still air =x

speed of wind=y

(x-y)6=3000

x-y=3000/6=500   ...(1)

(x+y)5=3000

x+y=3000/5=600   ...(2)

adding (1) and (2)

2x=1100

x=1100/2=550

550 +y=600

y=600-550=50

speed of plane in still air=550 m/hr

speed of wind=50 m/hr

Answer:

  29

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c, r, g stand for the current ages of Carolina, Raul, and Ginny. Then we have the relations ...

  c = 2r

  g = 3r +4

  c + r + g = 52

Substituting for c and g, we get ...

  2r + r + (3r +4) = 52

  6r = 48 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4

  r = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 8

  g = 3(8) +4 = 28 . . . . . .Ginny is presently 28

On Ginny's next birthday, she will be 29.

Answer: Ginny would be 29 years old on her next birthday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent Carolina's current age.

Let r represent Raul's current age.

Let g represent Ginny's current age.

Carolina is twice as old as Raul. It means that

c = 2r

Ginny is the oldest and is three times Raul's age plus four. It means that

g = 3r + 4

Their ages add up to be 52. It means that

c + r + g = 52 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting

c = 2r and g = 3r + 4 into equation 1, it becomes

2r + r + 3r + 4 = 52

6r + 4 = 52

6r = 52 - 4 = 48

r = 48/6 = 8

c = 2r = 2 × 8

c = 16

g = 3r + 4 = 3 × 8 + 4

g = 24 + 4 = 28

On Ginny's next birthday, she would be 28 + 1 = 29 years old

Answer:12cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio are:

4:6:9

Perimeter=57cm

Let a be the unknown value.

The triangle has three sides: 4a, 6a, 9a

Perimeter=The sum of three sides

57=4a + 6a +9a

57=19a

Divide both side by 19

a=57/19

a=3

Therefore

4a:6a:9a

4×3:6×3:9×3

12:18:27

So the shortest side is 12cm

Final answer:

The shortest side of the triangle is found by setting up the sides as a proportion with a common multiplier and using the given perimeter to solve for it. Upon finding the multiplier, we multiply it by the smallest ratio to find the shortest side, which is 12 cm.

Explanation:

To solve for the length of the shortest side of the triangle, we should initially set up the ratio of the sides as 4x:6x:9x, where x is the common multiplier for each side of the triangle. Since the perimeter of the triangle is given as 57 cm, we can write the equation 4x + 6x + 9x = 57 to represent the sum of the sides of the triangle. This simplifies to 19x = 57, and by dividing both sides of the equation by 19, we find that x = 3. Therefore, the shortest side of the triangle, represented by 4x, will be 4 × 3 = 12 cm.

Answer:

Terry car will need 3 full tanks to complete the total distance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total distance to be covered = 1100 miles

distance travel in full tank =400 miles.

We need to find the number of tanks Terry car needs.

Solution:

Now we can say that;

the number of tanks Terry car needs can be calculated by dividing Total distance to be covered by distance travel in full tank.

framing in equation form we get;

number of tanks Terry car needs = [tex]\frac{1100}{400}= 2.75\ tanks[/tex]

number of tanks cannot be decimal value.

Hence Terry car will need 3 full tanks to complete the total distance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total area = Dining space + Kitchen and Storage space

Dining space = 90 multiplied by 20 = 1800 square feet

Kitchen and Storage space = 1/3 of Total area

Total area = 1800 + 1/3 of Total area

(1-1/3) Total area = 1800

2/3 Total area = 1800

Total area = 3*1800/2 = 2700

Kitchen and Storage space = 2700*1/3 = 900 square feet

Answer:

The least value of a = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

As it has two distinct roots . According to roll's theorem there should be a point where f'(x)=0

In a quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0 the point of maxima or minima is

x = - b/2a

We can find by differentiating it

2ax - b= 0

x = b/2a

So   0 < b/2a < 1

0 < b/a < 2

0 < b < 2a

a > b/2

then, the least value of b = 2 and the least value of a = 1

week = x

Process

1.- Write an equation for each situation

Beth         250 - 20x            

Martin       80 + 15 x

2.- Write the inequality

                   250 - 20 < 80 + 15x

Answer:

  B.  A solution to the system will be the intersection of f(x) and g(x) such that f(x)=g(x). Roz must verify that f(0)=g(0)=−2, f(2)=g(2)=0, and f(−1)=g(−1)=0.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for f(x) = g(x) to have a solution the same values of x and y must satisfy both ...

This will be the case for (x, y) = (-1, 0) or (0, -2) or (2, 0).

Ros can show this using the steps offered in answer choice B:

1. f(0)=−0^3+2(0^2)+0−2=−2; g(0)=0^2−0−2=−2. Thus, (0,−2) is a solution.

2. f(2)=−2^3+2(2^2)+2−2=0; g(2)=2^2−2−2=0. Thus, (2,0) is a solution.

3. f(−1)=−(−1)^3+2(−1)^2+(−1)−2=0; g(−1)=(−1)^2−(−1)−2=0. Thus, (−1,0) is a solution.

Answer:

Volume of cone is [tex]539.89 \ cm^3[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Diameter of Cone = 8 cm

Now we know that radius is half of diameter.

radius = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\times8 =4\ cm[/tex]

Also Given:

height that is 4 times the diameter.

So we can say that;

Height = [tex]4\times8 =32\ cm[/tex]

We need to find the volume of the cone.

Solution:

Now we know that Volume of the cone is given by one third times π times square of radius times height.

framing in equation form we get;

Volume of the cone = [tex]\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h= \frac{1}{3} \pi \times (4)^2\times 32 =539.89 \ cm^3[/tex]

Hence Volume of cone is [tex]539.89 \ cm^3[/tex].

Answer:

54 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are given;

We are required to determine the time taken to exchange the air in the room;

First we are going to determine the volume of the room;

Volume of the room = length × width × height

                                  = 5.2 m × 4.3 m × 2.9 m

                                  = 64.844 m³

Then we should know, that 1 m³ = 1000 L

Therefore, we can convert the volume of the room into L

= 64.844 m³ × 1000 L

= 64,844 L

But, the rate is 1200 L/min

Thus, time = Volume ÷ rate

                  = 64,844 L ÷ 1200 L/min

                   = 54.0367 minutes

                   = 54 minutes

Therefore, it would take approximately 54 minutes

Answer:

  about $525,900

Step-by-step explanation:

Each year, the value is multiplied by (1 +4%) = 1.04. After 20 years, it will have been multiplied by that value 20 times. That multiplier is 1.04^20 ≈ 2.19112314.

The value of the house in 20 years will be about ...

  $240,000×2.19112314 ≈ $525,900 . . . . . rounded to hundreds

Answer: it would be worth $52587 in 20 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the value of the house increases at a rate of 4% per year, then the rate is exponential. We would apply the formula for exponential growth which is expressed as

A = P(1 + r/n)^ nt

Where

A represents the value of the house after t years.

n represents the period of increase.

t represents the number of years.

P represents the initial value of the house.

r represents rate of increase.

From the information given,

P = $24000

r = 4% = 4/100 = 0.04

n = 1 year

t = 20 years

Therefore

A = 24000(1 + 0.04/1)^1 × 20

A = 24000(1.04)^20

A = $52587
