The ratio of two numbers is 3:7. If the larger number is 35, what is the smaller number

Mathematics

creativ13 [48]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The smaller number is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, set up a proportion where the ratio is a fraction and the new value is with x on the other side.

3/7 = x/35

Now cross multiply to solve.

35 * 3 = 7 * x

105 = 7x

15 = x

An arc of length 15ft subtends a central angle 0 in a circle of radios 9ft. Find measure of 0 in degrees
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

95.49°

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc length formula is s = rФ, where r is the radius and Ф is the central angle in radians.  Here, r = 9 ft and s = 15 ft.  Thus, the central angle Ф is

Ф = (15 ft) / (9 ft) = 5/3 radians, or

5 rad       180°

------- * ---------- = 95.49°

      3       π rad

The coordinate plane below represents a town. Points A through F are farms in the town. graph of coordinate plane. Point A is at
gayaneshka [121]
I made my own graph using the given points. Pls. see attachment. 

<span>Part A: Using the graph above, create a system of inequalities that only contains points D and F in the overlapping shaded regions. Explain how the lines will be graphed and shaded on the coordinate grid above.

I used paint program to graph the points based on the given data. 
I used a ruler as guide as I draw my line containing both points D and F and extended the line outward.
The yellow lines above represents the shaded portion of the graph.

y = mx + b

b is the y-intercept. It is the value of y when x is 0. In this case, b = 3.5
m is the slope. It is the change in y divided by the change in x. 
point D (2,4) ; point F (-2,3)
change in y: 4 - 3 = 1
change in x: 2 - (-2) = 4
m = 1/4

y = 1/4 x + 3.5 

Since we are looking for a system of inequality and the portion shaded is in the upper part of the line, the value of y will be greater than or equal to.

y </span>≥ 1/4x + 3.5<span>

Part B: Explain how to verify that the points D and F are solutions to the system of inequalities created in Part A.

To check the solution given above. We will use the x values of points D and F and check whether its y values are equal to or greater than the solution.</span>

y ≥ 1/4x + 3.5

Point D (2,4) : x = 2 : y ≥ 1/4 * 2 + 3.5 → 0.5 + 3.5 → 4
Point F (-2.3): x = -2 ; y ≥ 1/4 * -2 + 3.5 → -0.5 + 3.5 → 3
<span>
Part C: Chickens can only be raised in the area defined by y > 2x − 2. Explain how you can identify farms in which chickens can be raised.

y > 2x - 2

We will get the coordinates of each point and see if its x value will generate the desired value of y.

A(2,-3) ; x = 2 : </span><span>y > 2(2) - 2 </span>→ 4 - 2 → 2 . DID NOT PASS. -3 is lesser than 2.<span>
B(-3,-4) ; x = -3 : y > 2(-3) - 2 </span>→ -6 - 2 → -8. PASSED. -4 is greater than -8.<span>
C(-4,2) ; x = -4 : y > 2(-4) - 2 </span>→ -8 - 2 → -10. PASSED. 2 is greater than -10.<span> 
D(2,4) ; x = 2 : y > 2(2) - 2 </span>→ 4 - 2 → 2. PASSED. 4 is greater than 2.<span>
E(3,1) ; x = 3 : y > 2(3) - 2 </span>→ 6 - 2 → 4. DID NOT PASS. 1 is lesser than 4.<span>
F(-2,3) ; x = -2 ; y > 2(-2) - 2 </span>→ -4 - 2 → -6. PASSED. 3 is greater than -6.

Among the farms, points B,C, D, and F can raise chickens based on the given system of linear inequality.

A pine cone drops from a tree branch that is 36 feet above the ground. The function h = –16t2 + 36 is used. If the height h of t
scoray [572]
Notice that the height of the pine cone when it hits the ground is zero. So, to find the tame it takes for the pine cone to hit the ground, we just need to replace the height, h, with 0 in the function, and solve for time t:
h=-16t^2+36
0=-16t^2+36
-36=-16t^2
t^2= \frac{-36}{-16}
t^2= \frac{9}{4}
t=(+/-) \sqrt{ \frac{9}{4} }
t=(+/-) \frac{3}{2}
t=(+/-)1.5
Since time cannot be negative, the solution is t=1.5 seconds.

Since 1.5 second is significantly less than 2 seconds, we can conclude that <span>2 seconds is not a reasonable answer to this model.</span>

What is the answer to 7(2e−1)−3=6+6e
ludmilkaskok [199]
<span>Simplifying
7(2e + -1) + -3 = 6 + 6e

Reorder the terms:
7(-1 + 2e) + -3 = 6 + 6e
(-1 * 7 + 2e * 7) + -3 = 6 + 6e
(-7 + 14e) + -3 = 6 + 6e

Reorder the terms:
-7 + -3 + 14e = 6 + 6e

Combine like terms: -7 + -3 = -10
-10 + 14e = 6 + 6e

Solving
-10 + 14e = 6 + 6e

Solving for variable 'e'.

Move all terms containing e to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-6e' to each side of the equation.
-10 + 14e + -6e = 6 + 6e + -6e

Combine like terms: 14e + -6e = 8e
-10 + 8e = 6 + 6e + -6e

Combine like terms: 6e + -6e = 0
-10 + 8e = 6 + 0
-10 + 8e = 6

Add '10' to each side of the equation.
-10 + 10 + 8e = 6 + 10

Combine like terms: -10 + 10 = 0
0 + 8e = 6 + 10
8e = 6 + 10

Combine like terms: 6 + 10 = 16
8e = 16

Divide each side by '8'.
e = 2

Simplifying
<span>e=2
