Answer:

The two numbers are 64 and 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

You meant "quotient" of two numbers, right?

Represent the numbers by x and y.

Then the quotient is x/y = 8, and beyond that we know that x + y = 72.

Solve this for x and y.

If x/y = 8, then x = 8y. Substituting this into x + y = 72, we get:

(8y) + y = 72, or 9y = 72. Dividing both sides by 9 yields y = 8.

Since x/y = 8, letting y = 8 results in x = 64.

The two numbers are 64 and 8.

the logarmithmic functions, f(x)=logx and g(x), are shown on the graph. what is the equation that represents g(x)? explain.

mestny [16]

Answer:

g(x) = log(x+1) + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

If a curve has been translated (shifted or slid) you can add to or subtract from the x to show horizontal (left or right) shifts and add or subtract a number tacked onto the end of the equation to cause the vertical shift (up or down).

The curve for g(x) is shifted left 1 unit. So change the x to x+1. Left and right shifts are a little backwards from what you might think. But left shift is a +1.

Vertical shifts adjust the way you would think they should. UP shift 4 units is a +4 on the end of the equation. See image.

Is 16to 14 and 64to60 equivalent

stiks02 [169]

NO. They are not.

We can prove this by turning those numbers into fractions:

16 / 14 = 1.1428 ; 64 / 60 = 1.0667

Or simply:

64 / 16 = 4
60 / 14 = 4.29

To get the equivalent of 16 to 14; we must multiply both numbers by 4.

16 * 4 = 64
14 * 4 = 56

The equivalent of 16 to 14 is 64 to 56.

How do you go about doing this surface area problem?

hammer [34]

Break it down into 2-Dimensional shapes. Then add the areas together.

From the picture you can see;
front & back rectangles are 2*(4 x 8) = 64 m²
2 side rectangles are 2*(4 x 12) = 56 m²
2 triangular front & back pieces are (1/2)*8*3 = 12 m²
2 roof rectangles are 2*(5 x 12) = 120 m²

total Surface area = 64 m² + 56 m² + 12 m² + 120 m²
= 252 m²

For the volume; break it up into 3-dimenssional shapes and add the volumes together.

From the picture you can see;
Rectangular box volume is 4 x 8 x 12 = 384 m³
Triangular roof volume is area of front triangle multiplied through the length. (1/2)*8*3* 12 = 144 m³

Total volume = 384 m³ + 144 m³
= 528 m³

explain your process of converting a mixed number to an improper fraction.explain your process of converting a improper fraction

Sophie [7]

So I'll start with the mixed number to improper fraction.
Step one - multiply the denominator and the whole number.
Step two- take your product and add it to the numerator
Step three- the sum is the numerator of the mixed number and the original denominator is the denominator
___________________________
Now for improper fraction to mixed number
Step one- see how many times the denominator goes into the numerator (ex. 2 goes into 9, 4 times With one left over)
Step two -the 4 becomes the whole number and the 1 the numerator
Step three- use the same denominator
