Answer:

9,25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x, y

x + y = 34

x = 34 - y -----------(i)

x + 6y = 159 --------(ii)

substitute x value in (ii)

34 - y +6y = 159

34 + 5y = 159

5y = 159 - 34

5y = 125

y = 125/5

y= 25

Substitute y value in equation (i)

x = 34 -25

x = 9

HELP PLEASE? What is the coefficient of y in expansion of (y+4)^4 ?

gulaghasi [49]

256.

The coefficient of just the y term would be 256 because the entire expanded equation looks like this:

y^4+16y^3+96y^2+256y+256

The gas tank on the back of a tanker truck can be equated to a cylinder with a diameter of 8 feet and a length of 19 feet. A gal

Leokris [45]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

driver's tank: 30,427 lb
farmer's tank: 12,811 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is ...

V = πr^2·h . . . radius r, height h

The radius of the driver's tank is half its diameter, so is (8 ft)/2 = 4 ft. Then the volume of that tank is ...

V = π(4 ft)^2·(19 ft) = 304π ft^3

Each cubic foot of gasoline has a mass of ...

(1728 in^3/ft^3)(0.0262 lb/in^3) = 45.2736 lb/ft^3

Then the total mass in the driver's full tank is ...

(304π ft^3)(45.2736 lb/ft^3) ≈ 43,238.3 lb

The farmer's tank is a scaled-down version of the driver's tank. It's volume will be scaled by the cube of the linear scale factor, so will be (2/3)^3 = 8/27 of the volume of the driver's tank.

The farmer's tank will hold a mass of (43,238.3 lb)(8/27) ≈ 12,811 lb.

The amount remaining in the driver's tank is 43,238 -12,811 = 30,427 lb.

Jada was using square stickers with a side length of 3/434 inch to decorate the spine of a photo album. The spine is 10 1/21012

Yuki888 [10]

Answer: The number of stickers she used to cover the length of the spine = 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The length of spine = $10\dfrac12$ inches = $\dfrac{21}{2}$ inches

Length of each sticker = $\dfrac34$ inch

If she laid the stickers side by side without gaps or overlaps, the number of stickers she use to cover the length of the spine = $\text{(Length of spine)}\div (\text{Length of each sticker})$

$=\dfrac{21}{2}\div\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\=\dfrac{21}{2}\times\dfrac{4}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{7\times2}{1}=14$

The number of stickers she used to cover the length of the spine = 14.
