Algebraic expressions to model quantities

A businessman produces x Biscuits made up of wheat and rice daily, and another Business person produces y Snacks made up of vegetables daily.There is another person who manufactures z , drinks daily.Find total number of Biscuit,snack and Drink produced after 8 days.

So, Algebraic Expression will be

=8 x+8y+8z

As, there are three terms,so we call it Trinomial Expression.

Let's say you are walking down the street and you see a lemonade stand. One of the workers tell you that if you buy a lemonade you will have to buy 5 times that amount to sit down and a lemonade cost $2. you order 2 lemonades. after grabbing your drink you feel like sitting down. so you go up to the stand and and attempt to purchase a seat.
5($2x2)=x

a father is now 38 years older than his son. Ten years ago he was twice as old as his son. let x represent the age of the son no

Helga [31]

The present age of father is 86 years old and present age of son is 48 years old

Solution:

Given that, a father is now 38 years older than his son

Ten years ago he was twice as old as his son

Let "x" be the age of son now

Therefore, from given,

Father age now = 38 + age of son now

Father age now = 38 + x

Ten years ago he was twice as old as his son

Age of son ten years ago = age of son now - 10

Age of son ten years ago = x - 10

Age of father ten years ago = 38 + x - 10

Then we get,

Age of father ten years ago = twice the age of son ten years ago

38 + x - 10 = 2(x - 10)

28 + x = 2x - 20

2x - x = 28 + 20

x = 48

Thus son age now is 48 years old

Father age now = x + 38 = 48 + 38 = 86

Thus present age of father is 86 years old and present age of son is 48 years old

A boulder falls off the top of a cliff during a storm. The cliff is 90 feet high.

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

It will take the boulder approximately 4.28 seconds to hit the road

Step-by-step explanation:

The given height of the cliff from which the boulder falls, h = 90 feet

The equation that can be used to find the time it takes the boulder to fall is h = u·t + (1/2)·g·t²

Where;

h = The height of the cliff = 90 ft.

u = The initial velocity of the boulder = 0 m/s (The boulder is assumed to be at rest when it falls)

g - The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

t = How long it will take for the boulder to hit the road below

Plugging in the values gives;

90 = 0 × t + (1/2)×9.81×t² = 4.905·t²

∴ t = √(90/4.905) ≈ 4.28

The time it takes the boulder to hit the road, t ≈ 4.28 seconds.

What are the steps for this inequality: 6z < 48

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

z<8

Step-by-step explanation:

First: write down the equation : 6z<48

Second: divide both sides with 6 (since its the only number that can be divided for both sides)

Third: then you'll get z<8

Classify the statements based on whether they are represented by +3 or -3.

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer

Step-by-step explanation:

If you deposit money, your bank account shows it as +3

3 degrees below zero = - 3 o F which is darn cold.

3 floors below ground level = - 3 floors below ground level

3 feet above sea level = +3 feet

3 degrees about 0 = + 3

3 dollars lost = -3 dollars.

The set of integers is not closed for

Brilliant_brown [7]

Hello,

N is closed for an opération(µ) means that
a,b ∈ N : a µ b ∈N (i suppose so)

Answer (1) ex 2/3 ∉ N

Answer (4) ex 2-3 ∉ N

∀ a,b ∈ N: a+b ∈N is true ; not a answer.

∀ a,b ∈ N: a*b ∈N is true ; not a answer.
