Gabbys age is two times mikhails age.the sum of their ages is 75. What is mikhails age

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

Mikhail's age is 25 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make an equation: Say Mikhail is x, so Gabby would be 2*x=2x

If the sum of their ages equals 75, then x+2x=75, and x=2x=3x, so 3x=75.

75/3=25

D. All irrational numbers are rational numbers.

I attached the diagram my teacher showed us when we learned about this. I think it makes it a lot less confusing.

Hope this helps :)

A wire b units long is cut into two pieces. One piece is bent into an equilateral triangle and the other is bent into a circle.

mezya [45]

1. Divide wire b in parts x and b-x.

2. Bend the b-x piece to form a triangle with side (b-x)/3

There are many ways to find the area of the equilateral triangle. One is by the formula A= $\frac{1}{2}sin60^{o}side*side= \frac{1}{2} \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} (\frac{b-x}{3}) ^{2}= \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{36}(b-x)^{2}$
A= $\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{36}(b-x)^{2}=\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{36}( b^{2}-2bx+ x^{2} )=\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{36}b^{2}-\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}bx+ \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{36}x^{2}$

Another way is apply the formula A=1/2*base*altitude,
where the altitude can be found by applying the pythagorean theorem on the triangle with hypothenuse (b-x)/3 and side (b-x)/6

3. Let x be the circumference of the circle.

$2 \pi r=x$

so $r= \frac{x}{2 \pi }$

Area of circle = $\pi r^{2}= \pi ( \frac{x}{2 \pi } )^{2} = \frac{ \pi }{ 4 \pi ^{2} }* x^{2} = \frac{1}{4 \pi } x^{2}$

4. Let f(x)= $\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{36}b^{2}-\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}bx+ \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{36}x^{2}+\frac{1}{4 \pi } x^{2}$

be the function of the sum of the areas of the triangle and circle.

5. f(x) is a minimum means f'(x)=0

f'(x)= $\frac{ -\sqrt{3} }{18}b+ \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}x+\frac{1}{2 \pi } x$ =0

$\frac{ -\sqrt{3} }{18}b+ \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}x+\frac{1}{2 \pi } x=0$

$(\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}+\frac{1}{2 \pi }) x=\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}b$

$x= \frac{\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}b}{(\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}+\frac{1}{2 \pi }) }$

6. So one part is $\frac{\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}b}{(\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}+\frac{1}{2 \pi }) }$ and the other part is b- $\frac{\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}b}{(\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}+\frac{1}{2 \pi }) }$

2k^2+3k-13=k^2+15

subtract k^2 -15 from each side

k^2 +3k -28=0

(k+7)(k-4)=0
