Huw has a maths test. the second question is:

Mathematics
1 answer:
xeze [42]2 years ago
5 0

Huw's answer of 9 days is incorrect because more guests would finish the food in less time so the number of days for 30 guests is less than 6 days.

The number of days that the food can last 30 guests is 4 days.

<h3>How long will Seaview Hotel's food feed 30 guests?</h3>

More guests would eat the food faster which means that it would be finished in less days than the 6 days used by 20 guests.

To find the days the food would last 30 guests, use the inverse proportion formula:
= (Number of guests x Number of days food lasts for guests) / New number of guests

= (20 x 6) / 30

= 4 days

Full question is:

The only food provided for guests at Seaview Hotel is breakfast. The hotel has enough food to make breakfast for 20 guests for 6 days. How long would the food last 30 guests? You may assume each guest eats the same amount of food for breakfast.

Without working out the correct answer, explain why Huw’s answer of 9 days is incorrect.

A sqware has an area of 49 sqware feet. A rectangle has an area of 24 sqware feet its lanth is 2 feet longer than its width witc
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the square has an area of 49 ft^2, then the length of one of its sides is

s = √(49 ft^2) = 7 ft, and its perimeter is P = 4(7 ft) = 28 ft.

As for the rectangle:  let W and L represent the width and length, respectively.  Then W*L = 24 ft^2 is the area.  L = W + 2 ft.  Therefore,

W(W + 2) = 24, or W^2 + 2W - 24 = 0, or (W +6)(W - 4) = 0.  Thus, W = 4 ft.

The perimeter of this rectangle is P = 2W + 2L, or

P = 2(4 ft) + 2(6 ft) = 24 ft.

The square has the larger perimeter:  It is 28 ft.

One student simplified x5 + x5 to x10 . A second student simplified x5 + x5 to 2x5 . Which student is correct? Explain.
dybincka [34]

An expression is defined as a set of numbers, variables, and mathematical operations. The second student is correct.

<h3>What is an Expression?</h3>

In mathematics, an expression is defined as a set of numbers, variables, and mathematical operations formed according to rules dependent on the context.

Given One student simplified x⁵ + x⁵ to x¹⁰. The second student simplified x⁵+x⁵ to 2x⁵. Since the simplification of (x⁵+x⁵) is equal to 2x⁵. Therefore, the second student is correct.

ABCD is a trapezium with AB parallel to CD. Find the value of x and the value of y.
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

x = 107 , y = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Each lower base angle is supplementary to the upper base angle on the same side, then

x + 73 = 180 ( subtract 73 from both sides )

x = 107

and

y + 2y = 180

3y = 180 ( divide both sides by 3 )

y = 60
