Answer:

35 min

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the total time spent is 140min

and that the time spent reading is x minutes

and also that the time spent doing home work is 2(x+5)

the time spent playing video game is 25

the expression for the total time is given as

total = reading +homework +video game

140=x+2(x+5)+25

solving for x we have

140=x+2x+10+25

140=3x+35

140-35=3x

105=3x

x=105/3

x=35

kenny spent 35 min reading

25 points!<br> Find the value of X.
aleksklad [387]

\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}

In the Triangle BCD, Angle B is 90° since tangent and radius are perpendicular to one another.

Now, let's find Angle C using Angle sum property of a triangle.

\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:\angle C + \angle B + \angle D = 180

\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:\angle C + 90 + 45= 180

\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:\angle C + 135= 180

\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:\angle C= 180 - 135

\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:\angle C= 45 \degree

Now, we know that Angle made by an arc on the centre is twice the Angle made by same arc on boundary of circle, hence we can infer that :

\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:2\angle C  = 10x

\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:10x = 2 \times 45

\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:x = 90 \div 10

\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:x = 9

So, the required value of x is 9

If t varies as v, and t = 2 4/7 when v =13/14 , find v when t = 2 1/4
maks197457 [2]

Answer : b) 13/16

Given : t varies as v

So t = k v  where k is the constant of proportionality.

t = 2 4/7 when v =13/14. Using these values we find out k

t = 2\frac{4}{7} =\frac{18}{7}

v =\frac{13}{14}

t = k * v

\frac{18}{7}= k *\frac{13}{14}

Multiply by 14/13 on both sides

\frac{18}{7} *\frac{14}{13} = k *\frac{13}{14}*\frac{14}{13}

So  k =\frac{36}{13}

We got the value of k. Now we find v when t = 2 1/4

t = 2\frac{1}{4} =\frac{9}{4}

t = k * v

We know the value of t and k

\frac{9}{4}= \frac{36}{13}* v

Multiply by 13/36 on both sides

\frac{9}{4} *\frac{13}{36} =\frac{36}{13}*\frac{13}{36}* v

So  \frac{13}{16}= v

Option B is correct

4. A solution of 60% fertilizer is to be mixed with a solution of 21% fertilizer to form 234 liters of a 43% solution. How many
solniwko [45]

Given:

A solution of 60% fertilizer is to be mixed with a solution of 21% fertilizer to form 234 liters of a 43% solution.

To find:

The quantity of the 60% solution in the mixture.

Solution:

Let x be the quantity of the 60% solution and y be the quantity of the 21% solution.

Quantity of mixture is 234. So,

x+y=234

x=234-y                  ...(i)

The mixture has 43% fertilizer. So,

\dfrac{60}{100}x+\dfrac{21}{100}y=\dfrac{43}{100}\times 234

Multiply both sides by 100.

60x+21y=10062            ...(ii)

Using (i) and (ii), we get

60(234-y)+21y=10062

14040-60y+21y=10062

-39y=10062-14040

-39y=-3978

Divide both sides by -39.

\dfrac{-39y}{-39}=\dfrac{-3978}{-39}

y=102

Putting this value in (i), we get

x=234-102

x=132

Therefore, 132 liters of the 60% solution must be used.

Olivia needs 545454 licks for every 333 lollipops she eats.
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

54 lick per 3 lollipops is a unit rate of 18 licks per lollipop.

36 is 2 times 18, so it needs 2 times as many licks as 18 lollipops.

36 2

I assume the last line is 5 lollipops.

If 1 lollipop takes 18 licks, then 5 lollipops take 5 * 18 licks.

5 * 18 = 90

90 5
