Answer:

8 sheep total after buying 3 sheep

Step-by-step explanation:

At the beginning,  the farmer had 114 kg of sheep,  bu do not know how many.

let  x = unknown number of sheep at the beginning.

mean weight =   (total weight)/(x + 3)  =  24 kg.

mean weight  of 3  = 26 kg.

Total weight of the 3 sheep together =  3*26 = 78 kg.

mean weight =  ( 114 kg + 78kg) / (x + 3)  = 24  kg.

we can solve for x now.

192 / (x + 3 ) = 24

192/24 = x + 3

x + 3 = 8  sheep total after buying

Answer:

  8

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between the total weight, the mean weight, and the number of sheep is ...

  mean weight = (total weight)/(number of sheep)

This formula can be rearranged to help us find what we need. For example, ...

  number of sheep = (total weight)/(mean weight)

and

  total weight = (mean weight)(number of sheep)

__

Using this latter formula, we can find the total weight of the new sheep. It is ...

  weight of 3 new sheep = (26 kg)(3) = 78 kg

Then the total weight of all sheep is ...

  weight of all sheep = (weight of some sheep) + (weight of 3 new sheep)

  = (114 kg) + (78 kg) = 192 kg

Now, we can use the formula for the number of sheep:

  number of sheep = (192 kg)/(24 kg) = 8

After buying 3 more sheep, the farmer had 8 sheep.

Step-by-step explanation:

You treat inequality questions just like normal equation with an equal sign. You only have to worry about the inequality when you do the shading part.

Your first goal is to solve for y, which I did at the top.

And remember that when you divide/multiply by a negative number you have to flip the inequality sign.

So the first equation is already in term of y. (y < 2x + 4)

So you only have to solve for y for -3x - 2y ≥ 6.

I solved that and got y ≤ -3/2x - 3.

Now you have 2 equations. y < 2x + 4 and y ≤ -3/2x - 3

First you gotta treat it like a normal equation and graph them.

So i graphed y = 2x + 4 and y = -3/2x - 3. I assume you already know how do do that.

btw. < and > have dotted lines, while ≤ and ≥ have solid lines.

Now for the shading, you gotta look at the inequality sign.

y < 2x + 4 has a less than sign, so you have to shade everything underneath the line you graphed.

y ≤ -3/2x - 3 is also less than, so you have to shade everything underneath that line as well.

So in the future, you you get a > or ≥ then you have to shade above the graph.

Answer:

x = a³b + b²/ab + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x = a² + b²/ab + 1

x = a² × (ab + 1) + b²/ab + 1

x = a³b + a² + b²/ab + 1

x = a³b + b²/ab + 1

If y=15 when x=5, find y when x=7, given that y varies directly with x.
Oxana [17]

Answer:

when x = 7, y = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

This is about direct variation. If y varies directly with x, then there is a constant  factor of variation, k. The constant of variation can be found by ʸ⁄ₓ

k = ʸ⁄ₓ

k = ¹⁵⁄₅ = 3

Now that we have found k, we simply multiply x by it to find y (this is because y is directly proportional to x). We plug in our x = 7 to find y at this point.

y = 3x

y = 3(7)

y = 21
