Amy has a collection of marbles in three sizes, small, medium, and large. She has five times as many small marbles as medium mar

bles. The number of large marbles is two more than three times the number of medium marbles.
Let x represent the number of medium marbles Amy has. Write an algebraic expression to represent the number of small marbles she has.

Answer:

Amy has 310 small marbles, 62 medium marbles and 188 large marbles.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) Let the number of small marbles be x

ii) let the number of medium marbles be y

iii) let the number of large marbles be z

iv) Amy has 5 times as many small marbles as medium marbles therefore we can write  5y = x

v) the number of large marbles is two more than than three times the number of medium marbles therefore we can write

   z = 3y + 2

vi) Amy has a total of 560 marbles therefore we can write x + y + z = 560

vii) Therefore from i) we can write x  = 5y

viii) using vii) and v) in vi) we can write

    x + y + z  = 5y + y + 3y + 2 = 560

ix) Therefore 9y = 558   .... therefore y = \frac{558}{9} = 62

x) Therefore from i) we get x  = y \times 5 = 62 \times 5 = 310

xi) Therefore z  = (3 \times 62) + 2 =  188

Amy has 310 small marbles, 62 medium marbles and 188 large marbles.

Water is flowing into a large spherical tank at a constant rate. Let V (t) be the volume of water in the tank at time t, and h(t
aleksley [76]

Answer:

See solutions for detail.

Step-by-step explanation:

a.  \frac{dV}{dt} is the instantaneous rate of change of volume given with respect to time, t.

The volume's rate of change is written as a function of time.

-\frac{dh}{dt} is the rate of change in the height of water in the tank with respect to time, t.

b.  \frac{dV}{dt}- is the only constant. Water flows into the constant at a constant rate, say 6cm^3 per minute.

c. \frac{dV}{dt} is positive. Volume water in the take  is increasing from time to time.

-The volume at time t=1 is greater than the volume at t=0, hence, it's a positive rate of change.

d. \frac{dh}{dt} is a positive rate. The initial height of water in the tank is zero.

-The final height at time t is 0.25h. The height is increasing with time.

Hence, it is positive.

Do the following proofs
Anna11 [10]

1) By the SSS postulate we can tell that these two triangles are congruent.

-> What is SSS?

[] When three sides of a triangle are congruent to the three sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are said congruent by side-side-side

[] The proof for the assignment

AB = DF, AC = DE, BC = EF    |    Given

The triangles are congruent   |    SSS Postulate

2) We can use AAS for these two triangles.

-> What is AAS?

[] When one side and two angles of a triangle are congruent to one side and two angles of another triangle, then the two triangles are said congruent by angle-angle-side

-> How does this apply here?

[] We are given that two angles are congruent to each other, so the angle-angle part is solved for. Since these two triangles share a side, that side will be congruent for each triangle, giving us angle-angle-side

[] The proof for the assignment

Angle T = angle N, angle TAB = angle NAB   |   Given

AB = AB   |    Reflexive Property

The triangles are congruent   |   AAS Postulate

Have a nice day!

     I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly. (ノ^∇^)

Mrs. Adams deposited $12,000 into an account that earns an annual simple interest rate of 3.25%. She makes no other deposits or
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

<em>Mrs. Adams will earn $3,120 of interest at the end of year 8.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Simple Interest</u>

In simple interest, the money earns interest at a fixed rate, assuming no new money is coming in or out of the account.

We can calculate the interests earned by an investment of value A in a period of time t, at an interest rate r with the formula:

I=A.r.t

Mrs. Adams deposited an amount of A=$12,000 into an account that earns an annual simple interest rate of r=3.25%. We must find the interest earned in t=8 years. The interest rate is converted to decimal as:

r=3.25/100=0.0325

The interest is then calculated:

I=12,000\cdot 0.0325\cdot 8=3,120

Mrs. Adams will earn $3,120 of interest at the end of year 8.
