Answer:

Joint variation states:

if y varies jointly with x and z

then the equation we get;

y = k \cdot xz

where, k is the constant of variation.

As per the statement:

If y varies jointly with x and z

Using above definition we have;

⇒y = k \cdot xz       ....[1]

y = 200 when x = 8 and z = 10

Substitute these value in [1]  to solve for k;

200 = k \cdot 8 \cdot 10

⇒200 = 80k

Divide both sides by 80 we have;

2.5 = k

or

k = 2.5

then we get an equation:

y=2.5 \cdot xz

We have to find x when y = 165 and z = 11.

then;

165 = 2.5 \cdot x \cdot 11

⇒165 = 27.5x

Divide both sides by 27.5 we have;

6 = x

or

x = 6

Therefore, the value of k = 2.5  and value of x is 6 when  y = 165 and z = 11.

Can you solve the inequality 2(x-3) is less than or equal to 10 without using the distributive property? Explain.
STatiana [176]

Answer:

Yes, without using the distributive property, we get the value for the given expression 2(x - 3)  ≤ 10  as   x ≤ 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given expression is:

2(x - 3)  ≤ 10

Yes, the given expression can be solved without using the DISTRIBUTIVE Property

Here, consider the given expression:

2(x - 3)  ≤ 10

Now, divide the  inequality by 2 on both sides, we get:

\frac{2(x-3)}{2}  \leq  \frac{10}{2}\\\implies (x - 3)  \leq 5

Now adding (+3) on both the sides, we get:

(x - 3)  ≤ 5    ⇒  (x - 3  + 3 )  ≤ 5 + 3  

or, x ≤ 8

Hence, without using the distributive property, we get the value of x ≤ 8 for the given expression 2(x - 3)  ≤ 10

-42 + 3x = 60 + 9x
muminat

Answer:

x = -17

Step-by-step explanation:

-42 + 3x = 60 + 9x

3x = 60 + 42 +9x

3x = 102 + 9x

-9x + 3x = 102

-6x = 102

x = -17

a store light flashes every 60 minutes while another light flashes open every 24 minutesif both stores begin flashing at 10 am w
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Both lights flash at 1:00

Step-by-step explanation:

they flash together every 2*7=14 minutes

in 60 minutes there are 4*14=56 minutes

they flash together at 1:56

more minutes brings you to 2:00

they flash together at 2:10 (4+10=14)

that leaves 50 minutes left in the hour

they flash three times which uses up 42 minutes

this brings you to 2:52 (10+42=52)

8 more minutes brings you to 3:00

in 6 more minutes (8+6=14) it will be 3:06 and they will flash together
