Four times the difference of a number and one is ten less than the number

VLD [36.1K]3 years ago

The other number is -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; Assume the other number is x. So 4 times the difference between x and 1 is equal to x-10. So we formulate the equation as

4(x -1) = x - 10,

4x - 4 = x - 10,

Transferring the unknown values to the left side and keeping the known values on the right we get

4x - x = -10 + 4,

3x = -6.

x = -2.

So the other number is -2.

Step 2; To check if we got the right number we substitute it into the given equation and see if it matches.

Equation is 4(x -1) = x - 10 substituting x=-2 we get,

4(-2 -1) = -2-10, - 12 = -12. Both sides are equal so the other number is -2.

Find the values of c such that the area of the region bounded by the parabolas
evablogger [386]
For there to be a region bounded by the two parabolas, you first need to find some conditions on c. The two parabolas must intersect each other twice, so you need two solutions to

16x^2-c^2=c^2-16x^2

You have

32x^2=2c^2\implies 16x^2=c^2\implies x=\pm\dfrac{|c|}4

which means you only need to require that c\neq0. With that, the area of any such bounded region would be given by the integral

\displaystyle\int_{-4|c|}^{4|c|}\bigg((c^2-16x^2)-(16x^2-c^2)\bigg)\,\mathrm dx

since c^2-16x^2>16x^2-c^2 for all c\neq0. Now,

\displaystyle\int_{-|c|/4}^{|c|/4}\bigg((c^2-16x^2)-(16x^2-c^2)\bigg)\,\mathrm dx=2\int_0^{|c|/4}(2c^2-32x^2)\,\mathrm dx

by symmetry across the y-axis. Integrating yields

\displaystyle2\int_0^{|c|/4}(2c^2-32x^2)\,\mathrm dx=4\int_0^{|c|/4}(c^2-16x^2)\,\mathrm dx
=4\left[c^2x-\dfrac{16}3x^3\right]_{x=0}^{x=|c|/4}
=c^2|c|-\dfrac{|c|^3}3
=\dfrac{2|c|c^2}3=144
|c|c^2=216

Since 216=6^3, you have c=\pm6.

Steve puts only dimes and quarters into his piggy bank. Right now he has five more dimes than quarters there, and they make $74.
professor190 [17]
D= number of dimes
q= number of quarters
(Keep in mind, it's not the price, but the number of each)
0.1d+0.25q=74.35
d=q+5
0.1(q+5)+0.25q=74.35
0.35q+0.5=74.35
0.35q=73.85
q=211
d=216

Answer:

The price before tip ,Mrs. Henry's move is 351.9 $

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total bills of 414 $ in which 15 % is tip

To Find:

What is the price before tip,  Mrs. Henry's move

Solution:

Total bill amount is 414$  

And 15 % is tip bill and 85 % is bill before tip

So,

85 % of total bill can give price before tip

OR

calculate 15 % and subtract from total bill.

So 85 % of 414=0.85 *414

=351.9 $

OR

15 % 414=0.15 *414

=62.1 $

Price before Tip is =414$  -62.1 $

=351.9$

So BY Both ways we can get same answer i.e. 351.9 $
