What is the number if 5/7 of it is 15

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nady [450]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x , then ;

\frac{5}{7} of x = 15

that is :

\frac{5x}{7}=15

5x = 15(7)

5x = 105

divide through by 5

x = 21

Therefore : the number is 21

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

(x-7) (x^2-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^3-7x^2-5x+35

Factor out an x^2 from the first two terms and -5 from the last 2 terms

x^2 (x-7) -5(x-7)

Factor out (x-7)

(x-7) (x^2-5)

The figure shows the layout of a symmetrical pool in a water park. What is the area of this pool rounded to the tens place? Use
k0ka [10]

Answer:

2489ft^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The pool are is divided into 4 separated shapes: 2 circular sections and 2 isosceles triangles. Basically, to calculate the whole area, we need to find the area of each section. Due to its symmetry, both triangles are equal, and both circular sections are also the same, so it would be enough to calculate 1 circular section and 1 triangle, then multiply it by 2.

<h3>Area of each triangle:</h3>

From the figure, we know that <em>b = 20ft </em>and <em>h = 25ft. </em>So, the area would be:

A_{t}=\frac{b.h}{2}=\frac{(20ft)(25ft)}{2}=250ft^{2}

<h3>Area of each circular section:</h3>

From the figure, we know that \alpha =2.21 radians and the radius is R=30ft. So, the are would be calculated with this formula:

A_{cs}=\frac{\pi R^{2}\alpha}{360\°}

Replacing all values:

A_{cs}=\frac{(3.14)(30ft)^{2}(2.21radians)}{6.28radians}

Remember that 360\°=6.28radians

Therefore, A_{cs}=994.5ft^{2}

Now, the total are of the figure is:

A_{total}=2A_{t}+2A{cs}=2(250ft^{2} )+2(994.5ft^{2})\\A_{total}=500ft^{2} + 1989ft^{2}=2489ft^{2}

Therefore the area of the symmetrical pool is 2489ft^{2}

Which pair(s) of expression are equal in value? Check all that apply
ankoles [38]

Note: Since the symbols for greatest integer function (GIF) and least integer function (LIF) are not given, I will be using the words GIF and LIF in the solution

GIF x means largest integer less than or equal to x, and LIF x means least integer greater than or equal to x.

We need to determine which expressions are equal

Option 1: GIF 4.9 and LIF 3.1

GIF 4.9 =  3

LIF 3.1 = 4

Hence GIF 4.9 ≠ LIF 3.1

Option 2: GIF 15.2 and GIF 14.8

GIF 15.2 = 15

GIF 14.8 = 14

Hence, GIF 15.2 ≠ GIF 14.8

Option 3: GIF -6 and LIF -6

GIF -6 = -6

LIF -6 = -6

Hence, GIF -6 = LIF -6

Option 4: LIF -3.2 and LIF -2.6

LIF -3.2 = -2

LIF -2.6 = -1

Hence, LIF -3.2 ≠ LIF -2.6

Hence, only in Option C the pair of expressions are equal.
