Mathematics

AleksandrR [38]2 years ago

Answer:

$90,000

Step-by-step explanation:

We can can use substitution for this. First, we need to create two separate problems that represent this situation. The house and the lot together cost 120000, so we can make the equation h+l=120000. We also know that the house is worth 3 lots, so we can make the equation h=3l. Because h=3l, we can substitute for h, making the equation 3l+l=120000, or 4l=120000. To isolate l, we have to divide both sides by 4. If we do that, we get l=30000. Now, we have to substitute to find h. Our new equation is h+30000=120000. To isolate h, we have to subtract 30000 from each side. If we do this, we get h=90000. That's our answer.

Hope this helps!

What is the answer to 2x+4y=16:4y=12
allsm [11]

Answer:

Here,

2x + 4y = 16....eqn \: i \\ 4y = 12....eqn \: ii

substituting the value of 4y in eqn i fron eqn ii

so eqn i becomes

2x + 12 = 16 \\ 2x = 4 \\ x = 2

So

y = 12 \div 4 = 3

Thus,

x = 2 \: and \: y = 3

...hope this helps:)

How much is 80% from 250.00
rodikova [14]
If you need further help on how they got the answer, this equation will take more time, but it will also help you understand these types of problems. Part÷Whole=Percent÷100
Part= X because it is what you are trying to find.
Whole=250 because it is what you are taking the percentage of.
Percent=80
Now you have:
X÷250=80÷100
Set this up in fraction form and cross multiply.
You get:
100x=250×80
250×80=20,000
100x=20,000
X=200

Trevon is helping his sister study for her geometry test while staying at a hotel.
Serhud [2]

Option (C) -: The hotel floors are parallel to each other, and the elevator moves in a path that is perpendicular to them both.

<h3>What is parallel and perpendicular ?</h3>

In geometry two lines are parallel to each other when they have no intersecting point and the distance between them is constant.

Two lines are perpendicular if they have an intersecting point and they intersect each other at at 90°.

From the given figure we can observe the distance between the floor ceiling of 3rd and 6th floor is constant therefore they are parallel to each other.Now if we imagine the elevator going up and down an imaginary line (meeting line of two elevator doors) would intersect them at an angle of 90°.

∴The hotel floors are parallel to each other, and the elevator moves in a path that is perpendicular to them both.

Look at the rectangle and the square:
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

She is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean theorem:

16^2+8^2

256+64=320

320 is 17.89

8^2+8^2

64+64=128

√128 is 11.31

Ada is incorrect. The length of diagonal SQ is bigger than the length of diagonal OM. But it is not two times bigger.
