The ratio of two numbers is 3 to 7. The sum of the numbers is 150. What are the numbers?

1 answer:

7 0

45 and 105, you can put the equation as 3x+7x=150. Add them to 10x then divide, x=15 so 3*15=45, and same for the other number.

Answer:

$x=-30;\quad \:I\ne \:0$

Step-by-step explanation:

$In\cdot \:4+In\left(4x-15\right)=In\left(5x+19\right)$

$\:4+In\left(4x-15\right):\quad -11nI+4nxI\\In\cdot \:4+In\left(4x-15\right)\\=4nI+nI\left(4x-15\right)\\\\\:In\left(4x-15\right):\quad 4nxI-15nI\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:distributive\:law}:\quad \:a\left(b-c\right)=ab-ac\\a=In,\:b=4x,\:c=15\\=In\cdot \:4x-In\cdot \:15\\=4nxI-15nI\\=In\cdot \:4+4nxI-15nI\\\mathrm{Simplify}\:In\cdot \:4+4nxI-15nI:\quad -11nI+4nxI\\In\cdot \:4+4nxI-15nI\\\mathrm{Group\:like\:terms}\\=4nI-15nI+4nxI\\\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:4nI-15nI=-11nI\\=-11nI+4nxI\\$

$\mathrm{Expand\:}In\left(5x+19\right):\quad 5nxI+19nI\\In\left(5x+19\right)\\=nI\left(5x+19\right)\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:distributive\:law}:\quad \:a\left(b+c\right)=ab+ac\\a=In,\:b=5x,\:c=19\\=In\cdot \:5x+In\cdot \:19\\=5nxI+19nI\\\\-11nI+4nxI=5nxI+19nI\\\\\mathrm{Add\:}11nI\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}\\-11nI+4nxI+11nI=5nxI+19nI+11nI\\Simplify\\4nxI=5nxI+30nI\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}5nxI\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\4nxI-5nxI=5nxI+30nI-5nxI\\\mathrm{Simplify}\\-nxI=30nI\\$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-nI;\quad \:I\ne \:0\\\frac{-nxI}{-nI}=\frac{30nI}{-nI};\quad \:I\ne \:0\\\mathrm{Simplify}\\\frac{-nxI}{-nI}=\frac{30nI}{-nI}\\\mathrm{Simplify\:}\frac{-nxI}{-nI}:\quad x\\\frac{-nxI}{-nI}\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{-a}{-b}=\frac{a}{b}\\=\frac{nxI}{nI}\\\mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:n\\=\frac{xI}{I}\\\mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:I\\=x\\\mathrm{Simplify\:}\frac{30nI}{-nI}:\quad -30\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:$

$\quad \frac{a}{-b}=-\frac{a}{b}\\\mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:n\\=\frac{30I}{I}\\\mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:I\\=-30\\x=-30;\quad \:I\ne \:0$

The measures of two supplementary angles are (2x – 8)° and (3x - 2)°. What is the measure of the

saw5 [17]

Answer:

68°

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,

Two supplementary angles are (2x – 8)° and (3x - 2)°.

As we know that the sum of two supplementary angles are 180°. So,

→ (2x – 8)° + (3x – 2)° = 180°

→ 2x° – 8° + 3x° – 2° = 180°

→ 5x° – 10° = 180°

→ 5x° = 180° + 10°

→ 5x° = 190°

→ x = 190° ÷ 5°

→ x = 38°

Supplementary angles are,

1st angle = (2x – 8)°

→ 2(38°) – 8

→ (76 – 8)°

→ 68°

2nd angle = (3x – 2)°

→ 3(38°) – 2

→ (114 – 2)°

→ 112°

Therefore, the measure of the smaller angle is 68°.

StartFraction 7 over 2 EndFraction can be used to find the unit rate if one divides 7 by 2 and compares the result to 1

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

we have the points

B(2, 7) and D(4, 14)

substitute the values

The unit rate is

therefore

We need the cross product of the two vectors.

The second vector is obtained by reversing the direction, namely <-2,13,-10>
Thus the two vectors are <2,-13,10> and <-2,13,-10>.
