Sybil and her 3 friends will receive ¹/₈ pizza

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Order of Operations in Mathematics follow this following rule :

  1. Parentheses
  2. Exponents
  3. Multiplication and Division
  4. Addition and Subtraction

This rule is known as the PEMDAS method.

In working on a mathematical problem, we first calculate operation that is in parentheses, follow by exponentiation, then multiplication or division, and finally addition or subtraction.

Let us tackle the problem !

Let :

<em>Initial Amount of Pizza = X</em>

Sybil has 1/2 pizza left over → \texttt{Sybil's Pizza} = \frac{1}{2}X

<em>She wants to share the pizza with her 3 friends.</em>

We will divide the remaining pizza into 4 parts.

\texttt{The portion of pizza each received} = \texttt{Sybil's Pizza} \div 4

\texttt{The portion of pizza each received} = \frac{1}{2}X \div 4

\texttt{The portion of pizza each received} = \frac{1}{2}X \times \frac{1}{4}

\texttt{The portion of pizza each received} = \frac{1}{8}X

<h2>Conclusion:</h2>

Sybil and her 3 friends will receive ¹/₈ pizza

Solve the system of equations.
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

1) {y,x}={-3,-23}

2) {x,y}={7,-9/2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Required:

  • Solve systems of equations

1) y - x = 20, 2x - 15y = -1

Equations Simplified or Rearranged :

[1]    y - x = 20

  [2]    -15y + 2x = -1

Graphic Representation of the Equations :

x + y = 20        2x - 15y = -1  

Solve by Substitution :

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  y

 [1]    y = x + 20

// Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [2]

  [2]    -15•(x +20) + 2x = -1

  [2]     - 13x = 299

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  x

[2]    13x = - 299

  [2]    x = - 23

// By now we know this much :

  y = x+20

   x = -23

// Use the  x  value to solve for  y

   y = (-23)+20 = -3

Solution :

{y,x} = {-3,-23}

2) 25-x=-4y,3x-2y=30

Equations Simplified or Rearranged :

  [1]    -x + 4y = -25

  [2]    3x - 2y = 30

Graphic Representation of the Equations :

   4y - x = -25        -2y + 3x = 30  

Solve by Substitution :

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  x

  [1]    x = 4y + 25

// Plug this in for variable  x  in equation [2]

 [2]    3•(4y+25) - 2y = 30

  [2]    10y = -45

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  y

  [2]    10y = - 45

  [2]    y = - 9/2

// By now we know this much :

  x = 4y+25

   y = -9/2

// Use the  y  value to solve for  x

  x = 4(-9/2)+25 = 7

Solution :

{x,y} = {7,-9/2}

What is the length of radius to the nearest tenth of an inch?
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

radius = arc length / central angle in radians

radius = 4 inches / 5*PI / 12

radius = 4 / 1.308996939 radians

radius = 3.0557749074

radius = 3.0557749074 inches

A wheel has a diameter of 21 inches. <br><br> Approximately how far does it travel in 3 revolutions?
RideAnS [48]
So each 1 revolution it travels the distance around the rim of the wheele aka circumference
circumference=pi times diameter
diameter=21
circunference=pi times 21 or 21pi
so distance=number of revolutions times circunference
number of revolutions=3
subsitute

distance=3 times 21pi
distance=63pi

answer is 63pi
or aprox pi to 3.14 and do 63 times 3.14=197.82
aprox 197.82 inches

Dinosaur fossils are often dated by using an element other than carbon, like potassium-40, that has a longer half life (in this
Firlakuza [10]
The amount of substance left of a radioactive element of half life, t_{\frac{1}{2}} after a time, t, is given by:

N(t)=N_0\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{t_{  \frac{1}{2} }}

Given that <span>potassium-40 has a half life of approximately 1.25 billion years.

The number of years it will take for 0.1% of potassium-40 to remain is obtained as follows:

0.1=100\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{1.25}} \\  \\ \Rightarrow\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{1.25}}=0.001 \\  \\ \Rightarrow\frac{t}{1.25}\ln\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)=\ln(0.001) \\  \\ \Rightarrow \frac{t}{1.25}= \frac{\ln(0.001)}{\ln\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)} =9.966 \\  \\ t=9.966(1.25)=12.5

Therefore, </span><span>the maximum age of a fossil that we could date using 40k is 12.5 billion years.</span>
