A wise man once said 500 reduced by 4 times my age is 232. what is his age

1 answer:

3 0

Well 500 reduced by 4 times my age is 232...
The first step to discover the age (I'll assume that's your question) is subtract 232 from 500 500-232 equals 268. Divide this by 4 to get 67. Boy, that's a pretty old age. Hope this helps!

The product of (4z^2 + 7z - 8) and (-z + 3) is -4z^3 + xz^2 + yz - 24. What is the value of x? What is the value of y?

ycow [4]

Answer:

$x=5+\frac{29}{z}-\frac{y}{z}$

$y=5z+29-xz$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: $(4z^2+7z-8)(-z+3)=-4z^3+xz^2+yz-24$ ; find x and y.

Let's start with finding x first. Let's distribute the left side of the equation.

$-4z^3+5z^2+29z-24=-4z^3+xz^2+yz-24$

Let's move everything we can to the left side of the equation. Some things will cancel out.

$5z^2+29z=xz^2+yz$

Now, let's move the term that includes $x$ to the left side of the equation. Everything else should be moved to the right.

$-xz^2=-5z^2-29z+yz$

Let's get rid of the negative sign in front of $x$ by dividing both sides by -1.

$xz^2=5z^2+29z-yz$

To get $x$ completely isolated, divide both sides by $z^2$ .

$\frac{xz^2}{z^2}=\frac{5z^2}{z^2}+\frac{29z}{z^2}-\frac{yz}{z^2}$

Simplify.

$x=5+\frac{29}{z}-\frac{y}{z}$

Let's solve for y. We will start with the distributed and simplified equation to make it easier.

$5z^2+29z=xz^2+yz$

Now, let's move the term that includes $y$ to the left side of the equation. Everything else should be moved to the right.

$-yz=-5z^2-29z+xz^2$

Again, let's get rid of the negative sign in front of the $y$ by dividing both sides by -1.

$yz=5z^2+29z-xz^2$

To isolate y, divide both sides by z.

$\frac{yz}{z}=\frac{5z^2}{z}+\frac{29z}{z}-\frac{xz^2}{z}$

Simplify.

$y=5z+29-xz$

Rina8888 [55]

If each there are 40 pencils, then divide to find how much each pencil is.

37.20 / 40 = $0.93

Correct answer is D.

After solving, we see that buying the case of 40 pencils is cheaper than buying 40 individual pencils.

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!
