Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

D -----> Danielle's age

C -----> Counselor's age

we know that

C=3D ----> equation A

D+C=28 ----> equation B

substitute

equation A in equation B

D+3D=28 ----> equation that can be used to find Danielle's age

Solve for D

4D=28

D=7

<em>Find the value of C</em>

C=3D  ---->  equation that can be used to find Counselor's age

substitute the value of D

C=3(7)=21

therefore

Danielle's age is 7 and Counselor's age is 21

If y = (x-5)(x+7) then what does x equal?
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

x = 5, x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

If you mean find the roots, then x = 5 and x = -7

Because roots makes the equation equal to 0 and 5 - 5 = 0 and -7 + 7 = 0

An analyst from an energy research institute in California wishes to precisely estimate a 99% confidence interval of the average
Lena [83]

Answer:

190

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Confidence level = 99%

Therefore,

α = 1% = 0.01

[ from standard normal table ]

z-value for z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}= z_{\frac{0.01}{2}}= = 2.58

Margin of error, E = $0.06

Standard deviation, σ = $0.32

Now,

n = (\frac{z_{0.005}\sigma}{E})^2

Here,

n is the sample size (or the minimum number of gas stations  )

on substituting the respective values, we get

= (\frac{z_{0.005}\sigma}{E})^2

= (\frac{2.58\times0.32}{0.06})^2

= 13.76²

= 189.3376 ≈ 190

Hence,

minimum number of gas stations that she should include in her sample is 190

Which constant could each equation be multiplied by to eliminate the x variable in this system of equations? 4x + 5y = 62 5x − 3
qwelly [4]

Answer:

Multiply equation 4x+5y=62 by 5 and 5x-3y=22 by 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Equations are 4x+5y=62,5x-3y=22

To find: constant by which each equation should be multiplied to eliminate the variable x in the given system of equations

Solution:

4x+5y=62...(i)\\5x-3y=22...(ii)

Multiply equation (i) by 5 and (ii) by 4 to get the following equations:

20x+25y=310\\20x-12y=88

On subtracting these equations, we get

(20x+25y)-(20x-12y)=310-88\\\\13y=222

So, the variable x gets eliminated

You cut a 54-inch rope into four pieces. Twoof the pieces are the same length, a thirdpiece is twice as long as each of the twoe
antiseptic1488 [7]

Let's use the variable x to represent the length of the first and second pieces.

If the third piece has twice the length of the first and second, its length is 2x.

If the fourth piece has half the length of the first and second, its length is 0.5*x.

Adding all four pieces and equating to 54 inches, we have:

\begin{gathered} x+x+2x+0.5x=54 \\ 4.5x=54 \\ x=\frac{54}{4.5} \\ x=12 \end{gathered}

So the length of each piece is:

12 inches, 12 inches, 24 inches and 6 inches.
