Captain Sparrow and his pirate crew dug up several gold coins. They are dividing the coins amongst themselves so that each perso

n gets the same number of coins. If there were four fewer pirates, then each person would get 10 more coins. However, if there were 50 fewer coins, then each person would get 5 fewer coins. How many coins did they dig up?

Answer: 150 coins

Step-by-step explanation: let the number of captain Sparrow and the crew = c

The number of gold = g

This mean each person will get g/c

If there were four fewer pirates, then each person would get 10 more coins means

g/(c - 4) = g/ c+ 10

cg = (c-4)(g+10c) ....... (1)

However, if there were 50 fewer coins, then each person would get 5 fewer coins.

(g - 50)/c = g/c - 5

g - 50 = g - 5c

5c = 50

c = 10

Substitute c in equation 1

cg = (c-4)(g+10c) ....... (1)

10g = (10 - 4)(g + 10×10)

10g = 6× (g + 100)

10g = 6g + 600

4g = 600

g = 150 gold coin.

Therefore they dig up 150 gold coin

What is the value of x that makes PQ←→||RS←→?
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

x = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

For PQ and RS to be parallel then

∠ACQ = ∠RDB ( Alternate exterior angles ), thus

3x - 65 = 2x - 10 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

x - 65 = - 10 ( add 65 to both sides )

x = 55

In Exercises 27 and 28, find the domain of the function
Natali5045456 [20]

                                             Question 27

The graph on question 27 indicates that there are three points with the locations such as:

  • (2, 6)
  • (4, 12)
  • (6, 18)

In other words, there are three points that lie on the graph with the x-values such as:

{(2, 6), (4, 12), (6, 18)}

We know that the domain includes the set of x-values.

Hence, the domain of the function is:

  • Domain: {2, 4, 6}

Since the points are not connected between them. In other words, there is not a continuous line.

Thus, the function represented on the graph has a discrete domain.

                                        Question 28

The graph on question 27 indicates that the line segment with the end-points (0, 25) and (7, 20).

Since there is a continuous line between the points from x = 0 to x = 7.

Thus, the domain of the line function is:

  • Domain: {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}

As the line segment is a continuous line. Thus, the domain is continuous.

Basile [38]

Answer:

Gender is a categorical variable. The sum gives the total number of students in class.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The variable​ Male, is​ categorical, even though its values are numbers.​

Categorical variable:

  • These variable are the non parametric variable.
  • They do not need values to express the data.
  • They only use number and numerical to express the data or represent the data.
  • There is no relation with true value of numerical.

Thus, gender is a categorical variable. Numbers are only used to represent the data.

Numbers are just a representation.

The sum of these represent the total male and female students in class. Thus, the sum gives the total number of students in class.
