Answer:
42/50, 21/25
Step-by-step explanation:
84/100=42/50=21/25
so, you'd end up with a pyramid with a volume "one sixteenth" of the original then
now, the original had a volume of 1536, the quarterized version will then just be one sixteenth of that, or 1536 * 1/36
Answer:
The answer is
<h2>15x - y = - 126</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the equation of the line we must first find the slope (m)
So the slope of the line using points
(-8,6) (-9,-9) is
So the equation of the line using point (-8,6) and slope 15 is
y - 6 = 15( x + 8)
y - 6 = 15x + 120
Writing the equation in the form
Ax+By=C
We have
15x - y = -120-6
The final answer is
<h3>15x - y = - 126</h3>
Hope this helps you
From clue 3, we know that the three numbers average to 15. This means we add up the three numbers x,y and z and divide by 3 to get 15. So one equation is (x+y+z)/3 = 15 which turns into x+y+z = 45 after multiplying both sides by 3.
Let's say that x < y < z. In other words x is the smallest number, y is the middle and z is the largest. Based on clue 2, this would tell us that z = 8*x (since largest is 8 times the smallest). We can replace the 'z' in the equation x+y+z = 45 with 8x like so
x+y+z = 45
x+y+8x = 45 ... replace z with 8x
9x+y = 45
Now onto clue #1. The smallest number x is a prime number and it is 1/6 times the size of the middle number y. Put another way, the middle number y is 6 times larger than the smallest number. We have this equation y = 6*x
9x+y = 45
9x+6x = 45 ... replace ywith 6x
15x = 45
x = 45/15
x = 3 which is a prime number
Now that we know x = 3, we can use it to find y
y = 6*x = 6*3 = 18
and then use x = 3 to find z
z = 8*x = 8*3 = 24
Therefore the three mystery numbers are 3, 18, and 24. Note how these three values add to 3+18+24 = 45 which you then divide over 3 to get 45/3 = 15. So the average of the values 3, 18, 24 is the number 15. This helps confirm the answer.
