You cant subtract it.
switch it around, 2 2/3 - 1 1/3= 1 1/3
Hope this helps :D

The sum of two consecutive whole numbers<br> is 35. What are the two numbers?

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

1st number = 17

2nd number = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Unknown number = x

Since they are consecutive numbers, we add 1 to each other.

=> x + x + 1 = 35

=> 2x + 1 = 35

=> 2x + 1 - 1 = 35 - 1

=> 2x = 34

=> 2x/2 = 34/2

=> x = 17

So, the first number = x = 17

=> Second number = x + 1 = 17 + 1 = 18

1st number = 17

2nd number = 18

A 140 kg camera is suspended by two wires over a 40 metre wide football field to get shots of the action from above. At one poin

Katen [24]

Answer:

Please red the answer below

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the length of each cable you use the Newton second law for each component of the forces involved in the situation.

For the x component you have:

$T_1cos\theta_1-T_2cos\theta_2=0$ (1)

T1: tension of the first cable = 1500N

T2: tension of the second cable = 800N

θ1: angle between the horizontal and the first cable

θ2: angle between the horizontal and the first cable

For the y component you have:

$T_1sin\theta_1+T_2sin\theta_2-W=0$ (2)

W: weight of the camera = Mg = (140kg)(9.8m/s^2) = 1372N

You can squared both equations (1) and (2) and the sum the two equations:

$T_1^2cos^2\theta_1=T_2^2cos^2\theta_2\\\\T_1^2sin^2\theta_1=T_2^2sin^2\theta_2-2WT_2sin\theta_2+W^2$

Then, you sum the equations:

$T_1^2(cos^2\theta_1+sin^2\theta_1)=T_2^2(sin^2\theta_2+cos^2\theta_2)-2Wsin\theta_2+W^2$ (3)

Next, you use the following identity:

$sin^2\theta+cos^2\theta=1$

and you obtain in the equation (3):

$T_1^2=T_2^2-2WT_2sin\theta_2+W^2\\\\sin\theta_2=\frac{T_2^2-T_1^2+W^2}{2WT_2}=\frac{(800N)^2-(1500)^2+(1372N)^2}{2(800N)(1372N)}=0.066\\\\\theta_2=sin^{-1}0.066=27.23\°$

With this values you can calculate the value of the another angle, by using the equation (1):

$\theta_1=cos^{-1}(\frac{T_2cos(27.23\°)}{T_1})=cos^{-1}(\frac{(800N)(cos27.23\°)}{1500N})\\\\\theta_1=61.69\°$

Now, you can calculate the length of each cable by using the information about the width of the football field. You use the following trigonometric relation:

$l_1cos\theta_1=40-d\\\\l_2cos\theta_2=d\\\\$

d: distance to the right side of the field

By using the cosine law you can fins a system of equation and then you can calculate the values of l1 and l2.

Farmer Ben has only ducks and cows 24 in total. He can’t remember how many of each he

beks73 [17]

Ok so you have d ducks and c cows. We know d+c=24. Also, since ducks have 2 legs and cows have 4 legs, 2d+4c=66.

We now have a systems of equations to solve for a variable using elimination

2(d+c=24)
1(2d+4c=66)

2d+2c=24
2d+4c=66

-2c=-18
c=9

Now that we have the number of cows, we can easily find the number of ducks by plugging in 9 to the equation c+d=24

9+d=24
d=15

There are 9 cows and 15 ducks.

Twice the difference of a number and 7 equals 5

RideAnS [48]

Hey there!

Let's write an equation given this information. We will use x to represent the number.

2(x-7)=5

Now, we use the distributive property to remove the parentheses.

2x-14=5

Now, we add 14 to both sides.

2x=19

We divide both sides by 2.

x=9.5

Therefore, our number is 9.5

I hope this helps!
