What is the solution set of {xlx<-3}{xlx>5)?

Anna007 [38]

<h3>Answer: C. Empty set</h3>

Explanation:

The first set {x | x < -3} means we're talking about numbers smaller than -3. This includes -4, -5, -6, etc

The second set {x | x > 5} means we're talking about numbers larger than 5. So things like 6,7,8,...

Combining both at the same time, we want to find a number that is both smaller than -3 and larger than 5. This is impossible as no such number exists. You can pick one or the other, but not both.

There are no solutions. Since there are no solutions, the solution set is the empty set.

A recipe says it produces the best sweet tea. In addition to using tea bags, the recipe calls for 1/2 cup of sugar for every 1 a

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

y=3x

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, the ratio between sugar and water is 0.5 : 1.5 or 1 : 3.

That means that you need three cups of water for every cup of sugar.

In order to put this into an equation, the slope would be 3/1 or simply 3, and the y-intercept is 0. Even if you used the 0.5 : 1.5 ratio, the slope would be the same since 1.5 / 0.5 = 3.

aflati masurile a doua unghiuri complementare stiind ca masura unuia dintre ele este cu 18° mai mica decat triplul masurii celui

Ahat [919]

Answer:

The angle is "27 and 63".

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A and B are two angles, in which A is " $\frac{1}{2}$ " complementary angles and B be is another complementary angle.

Condition of complementary angle :

$A+B =90 ......(i)$

Solution:

$\ A = \ 3B - 18 \\\\ \ put \ the \ value \ of \ A \ in \ equation.....(i) \\\\ \ Equation: \\ \\\Rightarrow \ A\ +\ B \ =\ 90 \\\\\Rightarrow \ 3B\ -\ 18 \ + \ B \ = \ 90 \\\\\Rightarrow \ 4B \ = \ 90 +18 \\\\\Rightarrow \ 4B = 108 \\\\ \Rightarrow B = \frac{108}{4} \\\\ \Rightarrow B \ = \ 27\\$

$\ put \ the \ value \ of \ B \ in \ equation (i).\\\\ \ Equation: \\\\\Rightarrow A+B=90\\\\\Rightarrow A+27=90\\\\\Rightarrow A=90-27\\\\\Rightarrow A= 63$

Riverside Elementary School is holding a school-wide election to choose a school color. 5/8 of the voters were for blue 5/9 of t

padilas [110]

Answer:

There were 180 voters for blue color.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of voters be 'x'.

Given:

Number of Voters for blue color = $\frac{5}{8}x$

Number of Voters for green color = $\frac{5}{9}(x-\frac58x)=\frac59x(1-\frac58)$

Now we will use LCM to make the denominator common we get;

Number of Voters for green color = $\frac59x(\frac88-\frac58)=\frac59x(\frac{8-5}{9})=\frac59x(\frac38)=\frac{15x}{72}$

Number of Voters for red color = 48

We need to find the number of voters for blue color.

Solution:

Now we can say that;

total number of voters is equal to sum of Number of Voters for blue color, Number of Voters for green color and Number of Voters for red color.

framing in equation form we get;

$x=\frac58x+\frac{15x}{72}+48$

Combining like terms we get;

$x-\frac58x-\frac{15x}{72} = 48$

Now we will make denominators common using LCM we get;

$\frac{72x}{72}-\frac{5x\times9}{8\times9}-\frac{15x\times1}{72\times 1} = 48\\\\\frac{72x}{72}-\frac{45x}{72}-\frac{15x}{72} = 48$

Now denominators are common so we will solve the numerators we get;

$\frac{72x-45x-15x}{72}=48\\\\\frac{12x}{72}=48\\\\\frac{x}{6}=48$

Now multiplying both side by 6 we get;

$\frac{1}{6}x\times6=48\times6\\\\x = 288$

Number of voters for blue color = $\frac{5}{8}x=\frac{5}{8}\times 288= 180$

Hence There were 180 voters for blue color.
