Pumping 25 gallons of gas into a truck in 3 minutes or filling a bathtub with 40 gallons of water in 5 minutes

Mathematics
1 answer:
Eduardwww [97]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this you have to figure each out in gallons per minute.

25/3 = 8 1/3.  This means that the gas is going into the truck at a rate of 8 1/3 gallons per minute.

40/5 = 8.  This means that the water is going into the tub at a rate of 8 gallons per minute.  

The gas is flowing into the truck faster.

Solve the system by using a matrix equation
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Option A is correct (17,11).

Step-by-step explanation:

6x - 9y = 3

3x - 4y =7

it can be represented in matrix form as\left[\begin{array}{cc}6&-9\\3&4\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{c}3\\7\end{array}\right]

A= \left[\begin{array}{cc}6&-9\\3&4\end{array}\right]

X= \left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\end{array}\right]

B= \left[\begin{array}{c}3\\7\end{array}\right]

i.e, AX=B

or X= A⁻¹ B

A⁻¹ = 1/|A| * Adj A

determinant of A = |A|= (6*-4) - (-9*3)

                                    = (-24)-(-27)

                                    = (-24) + 27 = 3

so, |A| = 3

Adj A=  \left[\begin{array}{cc}-4&9\\-3&6\end{array}\right]

A⁻¹ =  \left[\begin{array}{cc}-4&9\\-3&6\end{array}\right]/3

A⁻¹ =  \left[\begin{array}{cc}-4/3&3\\-1&2\end{array}\right]

X= A⁻¹ B

X=  \left[\begin{array}{cc}-4/3&3\\-1&2\end{array}\right] *\left[\begin{array}{c}3\\7\end{array}\right]

X= \left[\begin{array}{c}(-4/3*3) + (3*7)\\(-1*3) + (2*7)\end{array}\right]

X= \left[\begin{array}{c}-4+21\\-3+14\end{array}\right]

X= \left[\begin{array}{c}17\\11\end{array}\right]

x= 17, y= 11

solution set= (17,11).

(c) The annual membership fee in 2013 is $198 for each adult and $75 for each child.
Serggg [28]

Answer:

i ) $96120

ii ) Singular adult fee in 2012: $186.91

Step-by-step explanation:

( i )

To find the costs of all 560 peoples you:

Multiply the amount of people by the fee,

440 × 198 = $87120

120 × 120 = $9000

Add these go get the sum of member fees: $96120

( ii )

First calculate what 1% of the adult fee would be:

198 ÷ 100 = 1.98 = 1%

Then calculate what 0.1% of the fee:

1.98  ÷ 10 = 0.198 = 0.1%

Now multiply 5 by the value of 1% to get 5% :

5 × 1.98 = 9.9

Then multiply 6 by the  0.1% to get 0.6% :

0.198 × 6 = 1.188

Add these numbers together to get:

1.188 + 9.9 = $11.088 = 5.6%

Due to the fact this question is referring to money we will round this number 2 decimal places (as money does not exceed 2dp)

$11.09

We now subtract this from the 2013 fee to find out the 2012 fee

$198 - $11.09 = $186.91

$186.91 was the cost of a singular adult fee in 2012
