X and y are two positive numbers and y is three greater than x. the product of the numbers is 130. find the smaller number, x.

1 answer:

7 0

Xy=130
y=3+x

x(3+x)=130
x²+3x-130=0
(x+13)(x-10)=0
x= -13 or 10

since the question says X and Y are positive we just dismiss-13

x=10
and y=13

Please Find the distance between the two points rounding to the nearest tenth (if necessary).

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

10.29 u

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given :- </u>

Two points (7,4) and (-2,9) is given to us.

And we need to find out the distance between the two points . So , here we can use the distance formula to find out the distance. As,

$:\implies$ D = √{(x2-x1)² + (y2-y1)²}

$:\implies$ D =√[ (7+2)² +(9-4)²]

$:\implies$ D =√[ 9² +5²]

$:\implies$ D =√[ 81 +25]

$:\implies$ D = 10.29

<h3>Hence the distance between the two points is 10.29 units .</h3>

The weights of cars passing over a bridge have a mean of 3,550 pounds and standard deviation of 870 pounds. Assume that the weig

Annette [7]

Answer:

0.24315

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the z score formula to solve this question

z = (x - μ) / σ,

Such that:

x = raw score

μ = population mean

σ = population standard deviation.

From the question:

x = 3000

μ = 3550

σ = 870

z = (3000 - 3550) / 870

z = -550/870

z = -0.6962

Using the z score table as well as probability calculator(as requested in the question to find the z score)

The probability of having less than 3000 is obtained as:

P(x<3000) = 0.24315

ABC is a tangent to the circle below. O is the centre of the circle. Work out the size of angle 0. Give reasoning to justify you

Delvig [45]

Answer:

Θ = 46°

Step-by-step explanation:

the angle between a tangent and a radius at the point of contact is 90° , so

∠ ABO = 90°

since OB = OD ( radii of circle ) then Δ BOD is isosceles and

∠ OBD = ∠ ODB = 22°

the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.

∠ AOB is an exterior angle of the triangle , then

∠ AOB = 22° + 22° = 44°

the sum of the 3 angles in Δ AOB = 180° , then

Θ + 44° + 90° = 180°

Θ + 134° = 180° ( subtract 134° from both sides )

Θ = 46°
