If a=2b^3 and b= -1/2c ^-2,express a in terms of c.

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

Part 1) $a=-\frac{1}{4c^6}$

Part 2) $a=-\frac{1}{4c^{-6}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) we have

$a=2b^{3}$ ----> equation A

$b=-\frac{1}{2}c^{-2}$ ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

$a=2(-\frac{1}{2}c^{-2})^{3}$

Applying property of exponents

$(x^{m})^{n}=x^{m*n}$

$x^{-m} =\frac{1}{x^{m}}$

$a=2(-\frac{1}{2}c^{-2})^{3}=2(-\frac{1}{2})^3(c^{-2})^{3}=2(-\frac{1}{8})(c^{-6})=-\frac{1}{4c^6}$

therefore

$a=-\frac{1}{4c^6}$

Part 2) we have

$a=2b^{3}$ ----> equation A

$b=-\frac{1}{2c^{-2}}=-\frac{c^{2}}{2}$ ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

$a=2(-\frac{c^{2}}{2})^{3}$

Applying property of exponents

$(x^{m})^{n}=x^{m*n}$

$x^{-m} =\frac{1}{x^{m}}$

$a=2(-\frac{c^{2}}{2})^{3}=2(-\frac{c^{6}}{8})$

simplify

$a=-\frac{c^{6}}{4}$

therefore

$a=-\frac{1}{4c^{-6}}$

The ratio of boys to girls in math classes is 3.5. If there are 130 girls in these classes, how many boys must there be?

dsp73

Answer:

<h3><u>Required Answer</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>

The ratio of boys and girls =3:5

Let

Number of boys=3x

Number of girls =5x

According to the question Numbers of girls=130

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf 5x=130$

Now interchange both sides and get x

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf x={\dfrac {130}{5}}$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf x=26$

<h3>Now </h3>

The number of boys=3x

=3×26=78

$\therefore$ Number of boys is 78.

A rectangle has a length 6 more than it's width if the width is decreased by 2 and the length decreased by 4 the resulting has a

Rashid [163]

Answer:

Length of original rectangle: 11 units.

$\frac{\text{Area of original rectangle}}{\text{Area of new rectangle}}=\frac{55}{21}$

$\text{Perimeter of new rectangle}=20$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent width of the original rectangle.

We have been given that a rectangle has a length 6 more than it's width. S the length of the original rectangle would be $x+6$ .

We have been given that when the width is decreased by 2 and the length decreased by 4 the resulting has an area of 21 square units.

The width of new rectangle would be $x-2$ .

The length of new rectangle would be $x+6-4=x+2$ .

The area of new rectangle would be $(x+2)(x-2)$ .

Now we will equate area of new rectangle with 21 and solve for x as:

$(x+2)(x-2)=21$

Applying difference of squares, we will get:

$x^2-2^2=21$

$x^2-4=21$

$x^2-4+4=21+4$

$x^2=25$

Since width cannot be negative, so we will take positive square root of both sides.

$\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{25}$

$x=5$

Therefore, the width of original rectangle is 5 units.

Length of the original rectangle would be $x+6\Rightarrow x+5=11$ .

Therefore, the length of original rectangle is 11 units.

$\text{Area of original rectangle}=5\times 11$

$\text{Area of original rectangle}=55$

Therefore, area of the original rectangle is 55 square units.

Now we will find ratio of the original rectangle area to the new rectangle area as:

$\frac{\text{Area of original rectangle}}{\text{Area of new rectangle}}=\frac{55}{21}$

We know that perimeter of rectangle is two times the sum of length and width.

$\text{Perimeter of new rectangle}=2((x+2)+(x-2))$

$\text{Perimeter of new rectangle}=2((5+2)+(5-2))$

$\text{Perimeter of new rectangle}=2(7+3)$

$\text{Perimeter of new rectangle}=2(10)$

$\text{Perimeter of new rectangle}=20$

Therefore, the perimeter of the new rectangle is 20 units.
