Katarina [22]

Answer: Area = 6m²

Smaller number = 16

Hours = 9.6 h

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is 5 meters longer than its width. If the length is shortened by 2 meters and width is increased by 1 meter, the area remains the same. Find the area of the rectangle.

1) w = x m 2) w = x + 1 m

l = x + 5 m l = x + 5 - 2 = x + 3 m

A₁ = A₂

A = w*l

A₁ = x(x+5) = x² + 5x

A₂ = (x+1)(x+2) = x² + x + 2x + 2 = x² + 3x + 2

A₁ = A₂

x² + 5x = x² + 3x + 2

5x - 3x = 2

2x = 2

x = 1

A₁ = x(x+5) = 1.6 = 6 m²

The ratio of two numbers is 2:5. If the larger number is 40, what is the smaller number.

2 = x

5 40

5x = 80

x = 80/5 = 16

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{x=8;\ y=1\to(8;\ 1)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=x-7&(1)\\5+2y=7&(2)\end{array}\right\\\\\text{Substitute (1) to (2) and solve for x:}\\\\5+2(x-7)=7\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\\\\5+(2)(x)+(2)(-7)=7\\\\5+2x-14=7\\\\2x+(5-14)=7\\\\2x-9=7\qquad\text{add 9 to both sides}\\\\2x-9+9=7+9\\\\2x=16\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\\\dfrac{2x}{2}=\dfrac{16}{2}\\\\\boxed{x=8}$

$\text{Substitute it to (1):}\\\\y=8-7\\\\\boxed{y=1}$

La dirección del Colegio Montes y los padres de familia están organizando un viaje cultural a Guanajuato para los alumnos de seg

notsponge [240]

Answer:

x + y = 47 (eqn 1)

x + 2y = 79 (eqn 2)

Solving the simultaneous equation,

The hotel has 15 single rooms and 32 double rooms.

Step-by-step explanation:

English Translation

The management of Colegio Montes and the parents are organizing a cultural trip to Guanajuato for second grade students and their teachers. Students will sleep in double rooms and teachers in singles. The hotel has double rooms (2 beds) and single rooms (1 bed), totaling 47 rooms and 79 beds. To confirm if they can be accommodated, they want to know how many rooms there are of each type. If "x" denotes single rooms and "y" denotes double rooms, Write the system of equations that represents the situation: Equation that represents the number of rooms (1) Equation that represents the number of beds (2)

Solution

The number of single rooms = x

The number of double rooms = y

The number of beds in single rooms = x

The number of beds in double rooms = 2y

Total number of rooms = 47

Total number of beds = 79

Sum of single and double rooms = Total number of rooms

x + y = 47 (eqn 1)

Sum of the beds in the single rooms and the beds in the double rooms = Total number of beds

x + 2y = 79 (eqn 2)

Writing the equations together

x + y = 47 (eqn 1)

x + 2y = 79 (eqn 2)

Solving the equations simultaneously,

x = 15, y = 32

Hence, the hotel has 15 single rooms and 32 double rooms.

Hope this Helps!!!

Consider the line y=5x -3 Find the equation of the line that is patellar to this line and passes through the point (-8, -3) Cons

Lynna [10]

Answer:

The equation of the line that is parallel to given line and passes through the point (-8, -3) is: $y = 5x+37$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of line is:

$y=5x-3$

The general form of equation of line in slope-intercept form is written as:

$y = mx+b$

Here m(co-efficient of x) is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

Comparing the given equation with the general form we get

m = 5

Two parallel lines have same slope so the slope of any line parallel to given line will also be 5.

Let m1 be the slope of required line parallel to y=5x-3

Then m1=5

Putting in general form

$y = m_1x+b$

$y=5x+b$

To find the value of b(y-intercept) the given point has to be put in the equation from which the line passes.

The point is (-8,-3)

$-3 = 5(-8)+b\\-3 = -40+b\\b = -3+40\\b = 37$

Putting the value of b and m1, we get

$y = 5x+37$

Hence,

The equation of the line that is parallel to given line and passes through the point (-8, -3) is: $y = 5x+37$
