A farmer uses 3/5 of his land to grow cassava, 1/3 of the remainder for yam and the rest for maize. Find the part of the land us

ed for maize
Mathematics
1 answer:
alexira [117]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cassava = 1/3 of his land

Remaining after planting Cassava = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3 of his land

Maize = 2/5 x 2/3 = 4/15 of his land

Vegetables = 2/3 - 4/15 = 2/5 of his land

If vegetables = 10 acres

2/5 of his land = 10 acres

1/5 of his land = 10 ÷ 2 = 5 acres

5/5 of his land = 5 x 5 = 25 acres

10. Infinitely many solutions:

2(x-1)+6x=4(?-1)+2.

Simplify this equation:

2x-2+6x=4\cdot ?-4+2,\\ \\8x-2=4\cdot ? -2,\\ \\8x=4\cdot ?

When ?=2x, the equation becomes

8x=8x \text{ or } 0=0.

This equality is true for all x, thus the equation has infinitely many solutions.

11. The equation 5x-(x-2)=2x-(?) should have one solution x=-1.

First, simplify the equation:

5x-x+2=2x-?,\\ \\4x+2=2x-?,\\ \\2x+2=-?,\\ \\?=-2x-2.

This equation will have solution x=-1 when

?=-2\cdot (-1)-2=2-2=0.

Therefore, the initial equation is

5x-(x-2)=2x.

12. The equation -(x-8)+4x=2\cdot ?+x should have infinitely many solutions.

Simplify it:

-x+8+4x=2\cdot ?+x,\\ \\2x+8=2\cdot ?,\\ \\2(x+4)=2\cdot ?.

When ?=x+4, this equation will have infinitely many solutions.

Romb ma obwód równy 32 cm. Jakie jest pole tego rombu, jeżeli jego wysokość ma 3 cm?
Goshia [24]

Answer:

24 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Z zadanego powyżej pytania uzyskano następujące dane:

Obwód (obwód) = 32 cm

Wysokość (h) = 3 cm

Obszar rombu (A) =?

Następnie określimy długość boku rombu. Można to uzyskać w następujący sposób:

Obwód, czyli obwód (P) = 32 cm

Strona (y) =?

P = 4 s

32 = 4 s

Podziel obie strony przez 4

s = 32/4

s = 8 cm

Stąd długość boku rombu wynosi 8 cm

Na koniec określimy obszar rombu w następujący sposób:

Długość boków = 8 cm

Wysokość (h) = 3 cm

Obszar rombu (A) =?

A = sh

A = 8 × 3

A = 24 cm²

Dlatego obszar rombu jest

24 cm².

Julio bought 4 pencils and 3 erasers for $0.37 and David paid $0.33 for 3 pencils and 4 erasers. What is the cost of one pencil?
grigory [225]

cost of pencil = x = 0.07

and cost of eraser = y = 0.03

Step-by-step explanation:

let cost of pencil = x

and cost of eraser = y

So, we have equations:

4x+3y=0.37\\3x+4y=0.33

Solving both equations to find value of x and y

Let:

4x+3y=0.37\,\,\,eq(1)\\3x+4y=0.33\,\,\,eq(2)

Multiply eq(1) with 4 and eq(2) with 3 and subtract

16x+12y=1.48\\9x+12y=0.99\\-\,\,\,-\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,-\\--------\\7x=0.49\\x=0.07

Putting value of x in equation 1:

4x+3y=0.37\\4(0.07)+3y=0.37\\0.28+3y=0.37\\3y=0.37-0.28\\3y=0.09\\y=0.03

So, x= 0.07 and  y = 0.03

cost of pencil = x = 0.07

and cost of eraser = y = 0.03
