How many pennies could you have if:

Mathematics
1 answer:
Gelneren [198K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The number of pennies owned is 7 pennies

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of pennies left over when we break the pennies into groups of 2s = 1 penny

The number of pennies left over when we break the pennies into groups of 3s = 1 penny

Let the number of pennies owned = c

What we are given are as follows;

2 × a = c - 1

3 × b = c - 1

2 × a = 3 × b

a/b = 3/2

Therefore, if we multiply 2 by 3, and 3 by 2 we get 6

2 × 3 = 6, similarly 3 × 2 = 6

If we put 6 = c - 1, we get;

c = 6 + 1 = 7

c = 7

The number of pennies owned = 7 pennies.

Annie and her family are on their way to visit some family friends who live 820 miles away from them. Based on the route they ch
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The distances and average speeds for the first two days driven are show below.

Step 1

We calculate the total distance covered in the first two days

First day: 6 hours at an average speed of 60 miles per hour

Hence:

1 hour = 60 miles

6 hours = x

x = 60 × 6

x = 360 miles

Second day: 4 hours at an average speed of 65 miles per hour

Hence:

1 hour = 65 miles

4 hours = x

x = 65 × 4

x = 260 miles

The distance covered for the first two days =

(360 + 260)miles

= 620 miles

Step 2

The total distance for the entire trip = 820 miles

Hence, the distance left to cover on the third day = (820 - 620)miles

= 200 miles

In the question, we are told:

If the average speed on the third day is 50 miles per hour,

The number of hours it will take for them to reach their family friends home is calculated using the formula

Time = Distance/Speed

Time = 200 miles/50 miles per hour

Time = 4 hours

Write the following inequality in slope intercept form. -6+2y less than or equal to 42
lisabon 2012 [21]
The slope intercept of a line is given by y=mx+c, where:
m=slope, c=y-intercept. 
Thus the slope-intercept form of our equation will be:
-6+2y≤42
adding 6 in both sides we get:
-6+6+2y≤42+6
2y≤6
dividing both sides by 2 we get:
(2y)/2≤6/2
y≤3
the answer is y≤3

Solve. 90^x = 27. Explain every step.
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

The answer is ⇒ x = 0.73244

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ 90^x = 27 ⇒ insert log in both sides

∴ log(90)^{x}=log(27)

∵ 90 = 9 × 10 , 27 = 3³

∵ log(a)^<em>b</em> = <em>b</em><em> </em>log(a)

∴ log(9 × 10)^x = x log(9 × 10)

∴ xlog(9*10)=log(3^{3})

∵ log(a × b) = log(a) + log(b)⇒log(9 × 10) = log(9) + log(10)

∴ x[log(9)+log(10)]=3log(3)

∵ log(10) = 1 , 9 = 3²

∴ x[log(3)^{2}+1]=3log(3)

∴ x[2log(3)+1] = 3log(3)

∴ x = (3log3)/[2log(3)+1]

∴ x = 0.73244
