Pirate Jack has an equal number of gold and silver coins. If Pirate Jack splits all of his coins into 7 equal piles for his parr

ots, he has 4 coins left. Or, if he splits all of his coins into 11 equal piles for his shipmates, he has 4 coins left. Assuming every pile has at least 1 coin, what is the least possible number of coins Pirate Jack has?

The least possible number of coins Pirate Jack has, is 81 coins.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

When the coins are divided into 7 equal piles, 4 coins are left.

When the coins are divided into 11 equal piles, 4 coins are left.

We will take LCM of both 7 and 11.

7 = 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63, 70, 77, ....

11 = 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88, ...

The least common multiple of 7 and 11 is 77.

As 4 coins are left, therefore, we will add those coins.

Total possible coins = 77+4 = 81

The least possible number of coins Pirate Jack has, is 81 coins.

A water tank in the shape of a rectangular prism has a length of 525 feet, width of 423 feet, and height of 449 feet.
TEA [102]

Answer:

84 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

First, multiply the numbers to get the volume.

5 2/5 * 4 2/3= 25 1/5

25 1/5 * 4 4/9= 112

Then, we can find 3/4 of that.

112*3/4=84.

question 17 on a number line, point s is located at – 3 and point t is located at 9 . what is the location of point r on s t giv
KATRIN_1 [288]

The location of R on the number line will be 15/7.

Number line:

Number line is used for the visual representation of numbers on a straight line.

Basically, Zero (0) is considered to be the origin of a number line. The numbers to the left of 0 are negative numbers and the numbers to the right of 0 are all positive numbers.

Given,

On a number line,

point S is located at – 3 and

point T is located at 9.

Ratio of S and T = 3:4

We need to find the location of point R on S and T.

According to the given details,

The distance from S to T

=> 3 + 9 = 12

Through this we know that,

=> SR + RT = 12 ---------------------(1)

Based on the ratio,

S/T = 3/4

Which is similar to,

SR/RT = 3/4

So,

SR = 3/4 RT -----------(2)

Apply the value of SR on equation (1),

Then

3/4RT + RT = 12

=> 7/4 RT = 12

=> RT = 12 x (4/7)

=> RT = 48/7

Now the location of point R,

=> OT - RT = 9 - 48/7

=> 15/7

Hence "The location of R on the number line will be 15/7".

Find the value of x. Write your answer in simplest form.
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

by using Pythagoras theorm

{x}^{2}  +  {x}^{2}  =  {(9 \sqrt{2)} }^{2}  \\ 2 {x}^{2}  = 81 \times 2 \\ 2 {x}^{2}  = 162 \\  {x}^{2}  = 81 \\ x =  \sqrt{81}  \\ x = 9

Kevin cuts lawns during the summer months. He charges $10 plus $5 per hour. The algebraic model is C = 5h + 10, where C represen
Oxana [17]

Answer:

\begin{center}\begin{tabular}{ c c c }Hours(h) & Total Cost(C) \\ 1 & 15  \\  2 & 20  \\   3 & 25  \\ 4 & 30   \\ 5 & 35    \end{tabular}\end{center}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Kevin charges $10 plus $5 per hours

C = 5h + 10

To find:

The table of values for hours worked from 1 to 5.

Solution:

First of all, let us put h = 1 in the given equation:

C = 5 \times 1 + 10

C = 5 + 10 = $15

Now, let us put h = 2 in the given equation:

C = 5 \times 2 + 10

C = 10 + 10 = $20

Now, let us put h = 3 in the given equation:

C = 5 \times 3 + 10

C = 15 + 10 = $25

Now, let us put h = 4 in the given equation:

C = 5 \times 4 + 10

C = 20 + 10 = $30

Now, let us put h = 5 in the given equation:

C = 5 \times 5 + 10

C = 25 + 10 = $35

So, the table becomes each row incrementing h by 1:

\begin{center}\begin{tabular}{ c c c }Hours(h) & Total Cost(C) \\ 1 & 15  \\  2 & 20  \\   3 & 25  \\ 4 & 30   \\ 5 & 35    \end{tabular}\end{center}
