Michael is x. Michelle is y.
x+y=27
x-5=y

Substitute y
x+(x-5)= 27
2x-5=27
2x=32
x=16

Plug in x value
(16)+y=27
y=11

Final answer: Michael-16, Michelle-11

Create an algebraic equation to solve:
x+x+5=27
x=Michelle

Solve for x.
Add like terms
2x+5=27
Subtract 5 from both sides.
(2x+5)-5=(27)-5
2x=22
Divide 2 from both sides.
(2x)/2=(22)/2
x=11

Michelle has 11 cards.
27-11
=16
Michael has 16 cards.

Hope this helps!

A giant tank in a shape of an inverted cone is filled with oil. the height of the tank is 1.5 metre and its radius is 1 metre. t

skad [1K]

The given height of the cylinder of 1.5 m, and radius of 1 m, and the rate

of dripping of 110 cm³/s gives the following values.

1) The rate of change of the oil's radius when the radius is 0.5 m is r' ≈ <u>9.34 × 10⁻⁵ m/s</u>

2) The rate of change of the oil's height when the height is 20 cm is h' ≈ <u>1.97 × 10⁻³ m/s</u>

3) The rate the oil radius is changing when the radius is 10 cm is approximately <u>0.175 m/s</u>

<h3>How can the rate of change of the radius & height be found?</h3>

The given parameters are;

Height of the tank, h = 1.5 m

Radius of the tank, r = 1 m

Rate at which the oil is dripping from the tank = 110 cm³/s = 0.00011 m³/s

$1) \hspace{0.15 cm}V = \frac{1}{3} \cdot \pi \cdot r^2 \cdot h$

From the shape of the tank, we have;

$\dfrac{h}{r} = \dfrac{1.5}{1}$

Which gives;

h = 1.5·r

$V = \mathbf{\frac{1}{3} \cdot \pi \cdot r^2 \cdot (1.5 \cdot r)}$

$\dfrac{d}{dr} V =\dfrac{d}{dr} \left( \dfrac{1}{3} \cdot \pi \cdot r^2 \cdot (1.5 \cdot r)\right) = \dfrac{3}{2} \cdot \pi \cdot r^2$

$\dfrac{dV}{dt} = \dfrac{dV}{dr} \times \dfrac{dr}{dt}$

$\dfrac{dr}{dt} = \mathbf{\dfrac{\dfrac{dV}{dt} }{\dfrac{dV}{dr} }}$

$\dfrac{dV}{dt} = 0.00011$

Which gives;

$\dfrac{dr}{dt} = \mathbf{ \dfrac{0.00011 }{\dfrac{3}{2} \cdot \pi \cdot r^2}}$

When r = 0.5 m, we have;

$\dfrac{dr}{dt} = \dfrac{0.00011 }{\dfrac{3}{2} \times\pi \times 0.5^2} \approx 9.34 \times 10^{-5}$

The rate of change of the oil's radius when the radius is 0.5 m is r' ≈ <u>9.34 × 10⁻⁵ m/s</u>

2) When the height is 20 cm, we have;

h = 1.5·r

$r = \dfrac{h}{1.5}$

$V = \mathbf{\frac{1}{3} \cdot \pi \cdot \left(\dfrac{h}{1.5} \right) ^2 \cdot h}$

r = 20 cm ÷ 1.5 = $13.\overline3$ cm = $0.1\overline3$ m

Which gives;

$\dfrac{dr}{dt} = \dfrac{0.00011 }{\dfrac{3}{2} \times\pi \times 0.1 \overline{3}^2} \approx \mathbf{1.313 \times 10^{-3}}$

$\dfrac{d}{dh} V = \dfrac{d}{dh} \left(\dfrac{4}{27} \cdot \pi \cdot h^3 \right) = \dfrac{4 \cdot \pi \cdot h^2}{9}$

$\dfrac{dV}{dt} = \dfrac{dV}{dh} \times \dfrac{dh}{dt}$

$\dfrac{dh}{dt} = \dfrac{\dfrac{dV}{dt} }{\dfrac{dV}{dh} }$ <em />

$\dfrac{dh}{dt} = \mathbf{\dfrac{0.00011}{\dfrac{4 \cdot \pi \cdot h^2}{9}}}$

When the height is 20 cm = 0.2 m, we have;

$\dfrac{dh}{dt} = \dfrac{0.00011}{\dfrac{4 \times \pi \times 0.2^2}{9}} \approx \mathbf{1.97 \times 10^{-3}}$

The rate of change of the oil's height when the height is 20 cm is h' ≈ <u>1.97 × 10⁻³ m/s</u>

3) The volume of the slick, V = π·r²·h

Where;

h = The height of the slick = 0.1 cm = 0.001 m

Therefore;

V = 0.001·π·r²

$\dfrac{dV}{dr} = \mathbf{ 0.002 \cdot \pi \cdot r}$

$\dfrac{dr}{dt} = \mathbf{\dfrac{0.00011 }{0.002 \cdot \pi \cdot r}}$

When the radius is 10 cm = 0.1 m, we have;

$\dfrac{dr}{dt} = \dfrac{0.00011 }{0.002 \times \pi \times 0.1} \approx \mathbf{0.175}$

The rate the oil radius is changing when the radius is 10 cm is approximately <u>0.175 m</u>

Which equation is equivalent to 3/4=2x-1/2y+4

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

option a and d

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{3}{4} = \frac{2x - 1}{2y + 4} \\ 3(2y + 4) = 4(2x - 1) \\ 6y + 12 = 8x - 4 \\ now \\ 6y = 8x - 4 - 12 \\ 6y = 8x - 16 \\ y = \frac{8x - 16}{6} \\ y = \frac{8x}{6} - \frac{16}{6} \\ y = \frac{4x}{3} - \frac{8}{3} \\ y = \frac{4}{3} x - \frac{8}{3} \\a nd \\ \\ 6y + 12 = 8x - 4 \\ 6y + 12 + 4 = 8x \\ 6y + 16 = 8x \\ \frac{6y + 16}{8} = x \\ \frac{6y}{8} + \frac{16}{8} = x \\ \frac{3y}{4} + 2 = x \\ x = \frac{3}{4} y + 2$

What is the value of x in the proportion (x-1)/5=(4x+2)/35

neonofarm [45]

(x-1)/5 = (4x + 2)/35

lets start off by multiplying each side by 5

(x-1) = 5(4x + 2)/35

then let's multiply both sides by 35

35(x-1) = 5(4x + 2)

now let's distribute the coefficients (5 and 35) into everything in the brackets

35 times x is 35x
35 rimes 1 is 35

5 times 4x is 20x
5 times 2 is 10

(35x - 35) = (20x + 10)

we can add 35 to both sides

35x = 20x + 45

then subtract 20x on both sides

15x = 45

then divide both sides by 15

x = 3
