4 0

Answer:

x = 29

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be represented as x and y

x + y = 35

x = 5y - 1

Substitute x as 5y -1 in equation one

5y -1 + y = 35

5y + y -1 = 35

Add 1 to both sides

6y - 1 + 1 = 35 + 1

6y = 36

Divide both sides by 6

6y/6= 36/6

y = 6

Now substitute y as 6 in any of the equations to get x.

Using equation one ,

We have

x + y = 35

x +6 = 35

Subtract 6 from both sides

x + 6 - 6 = 35 - 6

x = 29

Ten years ago Victors age WAs half of the age he will be in 10 years how old is he now?
ICE Princess25 [194]

By solving a linear equation, we will see that Victor is 30 years old.

<h3>How old is Victor now?</h3>

Let's say that Victor is x years old.

We know that 10 years ago, (x - 10), his age was half of what it will be in 10 years (x + 10).

Then we can write the linear equation:

(x - 10) = (x + 10)/2

Now we can solve that equation for x:

2*(x - 10) = x + 10

2x - 20 = x + 10

2x - x = 10 + 20

x = 30

So we conclude that Victor is 30 years old.

The athlete that has the shortest training ride is athlete A.

The athlete that has the shorter range is Athlete B.

The athlete that has the greater median is Athlete B.

The athlete that has the greater IQR is  athlete A.

<h3>What are the summary statistics?</h3>

A box plot is used to study the distribution and level of a set of scores. The box plot consists of two lines and a box. the two lines are known as whiskers. The first whisker represents the minimum number and the second whisker represents the maximum number. The difference between the whiskers is known as range.

Range of Athlete A = 36 - 13 = 13

Range of Athlete B = 30 - 19 = 11

Training ride of  Athlete A = 16

Training ride of  Athlete B = 21

On the box, the first line to the left represents the lower (first) quartile. The next line on the box represents the median. The third line on the box represents the upper (third) quartile.

Median of  Athlete A = 20

Median of  Athlete B = 25

IQR of  Athlete A = 30 - 16 = 14

IQR of  Athlete B = 28 - 21 = 7

An electrician bought 120 feet of electrical wire and used 105 feet of it. What percent of the wire went unused? 15% 12. 5% 8. 7
Yuri [45]

Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

105 is what percent of 120?

you can use this proportion:

if/of = %/100

in this problem:

is = 105

of = 120

'what percent' = p/100

105/120 = p/100

cross-multiply to get:

120p = 10500

p = 10500/120

p = 87.5

So the electrician used 87.5%, out of 100%, meaning 12.5% went unused
