Answer:

38.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets say, first number = x

Second number = 3x+7

Total = 49

(x)+(3x+7)= 49

4x+7 = 49

4x = 42

x = 42/4

x= 10.5

3x+7 = 3(10.5)+7 = 38.5

Hope this helps!!

What is the answer please.... need help

Answer:

$f\left(x\right)=x^3-6x^2+3x+10$ is the function of the least degree has the real coefficients and the leading coefficients of 1 and with the zeros -1, 5, and 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

$f\left(x\right)=x^3-6x^2+3x+10$

As the highest power of the x-variable is 3 with the leading coefficients of 1.

So, it is clear that the polynomial function of the least degree has the real coefficients and the leading coefficients of 1.

solving to get the zeros

$f\left(x\right)=x^3-6x^2+3x+10$

$0=x^3-6x^2+3x+10$ ∵ $f(x)=0$

$Factor\:x^3-6x^2+3x+10\::\:\left(x+1\right)\left(x-2\right)\left(x-5\right)=0$

$\left(x+1\right)\left(x-2\right)\left(x-5\right)=0$

Using the zero factor principle

if $ab=0\:\mathrm{then}\:a=0\:\mathrm{or}\:b=0\:\left(\mathrm{or\:both}\:a=0\:\mathrm{and}\:b=0\right)$

$x+1=0\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x-2=0\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x-5=0$

$x=-1,\:x=2,\:x=5$

Therefore, the zeros of the function are:

$x=-1,\:x=2,\:x=5$

$f\left(x\right)=x^3-6x^2+3x+10$ is the function of the least degree has the real coefficients and the leading coefficients of 1 and with the zeros -1, 5, and 2.

Therefore, the last option is true.

laura spends 4 hours reading a book that is 76 pages long. what is the average number of pages she read per hour?

Studentka2010 [4]

The average number of pages she reads per hour is 19 pages per hour

<h3>How to determine the average number of pages she read per hour?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Number of pages = 76 pages

Number of hours = 4 hours

The average number of pages she reads per hour is calculated using the following formula

Average = Number of pages/Number of hours

Substitute the known values in the above equation

Average = 76 pages/4 hours

Evaluate the quotient

Average = 19 pages per hours

Hence, the average number of pages she reads per hour is 19 pages per hours
