A manufacturer uses a tank to supply water to his machines while they are working. When the machines are on the tank loses 1.5 g

allons of water an hour at the same time 1 gallon of water is pumped into the tank from a well. Write an equation that models the amount of water (w) in the tank for any hour (h) that the machines are on. The tank starts full with 150 gallons of water in it. A) W = 1t + 150 B) W = -.5t + 150 C) W = 150t - 0.5 D) W = -1.5t + 150

"150 gallons of water" is the "y-intercept," "the initial value."  So, eliminate any of the choices that don't feature 150 as the y-intercept.  Bye, bye, A and C.
Now, which one, B or D, might be right?  aSK YOUrself:  is more water entering the tank than leaving it, or more leaving than entering?
Is the amount of water in the tank increasing or decreasing?

Let N be the smallest positive integer whose sum of its digits is 2021. What is the sum of the digits of N + 2021?
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

10.

Step-by-step explanation:

See below for a proof of why all but the first digit of this N must be "9".

Taking that lemma as a fact, assume that there are x digits in N after the first digit, \text{A}:

N = \overline{\text{A} \, \underbrace{9 \cdots 9}_{\text{$x$ digits}}}, where x is a positive integer.

Sum of these digits:

\text{A} + 9\, x= 2021.

Since \text{A} is a digit, it must be an integer between 0 and 9. The only possible value that would ensure \text{A} + 9\, x= 2021 is \text{A} = 5 and x = 224.

Therefore:

N = \overline{5 \, \underbrace{9 \cdots 9}_{\text{$224$ digits}}}.

N + 1 = \overline{6 \, \underbrace{000 \cdots 000000}_{\text{$224$ digits}}}.

N + 2021 = 2020 + (N + 1) = \overline{6 \, \underbrace{000 \cdots 002020}_{\text{$224$ digits}}}.

Hence, the sum of the digits of (N + 2021) would be 6 + 2 + 2 = 10.

Lemma: all digits of this N other than the first digit must be "9".

Proof:

The question assumes that N\! is the smallest positive integer whose sum of digits is 2021. Assume by contradiction that the claim is not true, such that at least one of the non-leading digits of N is not "9".

For example: N = \overline{(\text{A})\cdots (\text{P})(\text{B}) \cdots (\text{C})}, where \text{A}, \text{P}, \text{B}, and \text{C} are digits. (It is easy to show that N contains at least 5 digits.) Assume that \text{B} \! is one of the non-leading non-"9" digits.

Either of the following must be true:

  • \text{P}, the digit in front of \text{B} is a "0", or
  • \text{P}, the digit in front of \text{B} is not a "0".

If \text{P}, the digit in front of \text{B}, is a "0", then let N^{\prime} be N with that "0\!" digit deleted: N^{\prime} :=\overline{(\text{A})\cdots (\text{B}) \cdots (\text{C})}.

The digits of N^{\prime} would still add up to 2021:

\begin{aligned}& \text{A} + \cdots + \text{B} + \cdots + \text{C} \\ &= \text{A} + \cdots + 0 + \text{B} + \cdots + \text{C} \\ &= \text{A} + \cdots + \text{P} + \text{B} + \cdots + \text{C} \\ &= 2021\end{aligned}.

However, with one fewer digit, N^{\prime} < N. This observation would contradict the assumption that N\! is the smallest positive integer whose digits add up to 2021\!.

On the other hand, if \text{P}, the digit in front of \text{B}, is not "0", then (\text{P} - 1) would still be a digit.

Since \text{B} is not the digit 9, (\text{B} + 1) would also be a digit.

let N^{\prime} be N with digit \text{P} replaced with (\text{P} - 1), and \text{B} replaced with (\text{B} + 1): N^{\prime} :=\overline{(\text{A})\cdots (\text{P}-1) \, (\text{B} + 1) \cdots (\text{C})}.

The digits of N^{\prime} would still add up to 2021:

\begin{aligned}& \text{A} + \cdots + (\text{P} - 1) + (\text{B} + 1) + \cdots + \text{C} \\ &= \text{A} + \cdots + \text{P} + \text{B} + \cdots + \text{C} \\ &= 2021\end{aligned}.

However, with a smaller digit in place of \text{P}, N^{\prime} < N. This observation would also contradict the assumption that N\! is the smallest positive integer whose digits add up to 2021\!.

Either way, there would be a contradiction. Hence, the claim is verified: all digits of this N other than the first digit must be "9".

Therefore, N would be in the form: N = \overline{\text{A} \, \underbrace{9 \cdots 9}_{\text{many digits}}}, where \text{A}, the leading digit, could also be 9.

Kobe, A'mari and DJ are raising money for their football team to take a trip to San Diego. Kobe collected $18.50 more than A'mar
ira [324]

Answer:

So Kobe collected $42.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Kobe, A'mari and DJ are raising money for the football team to take a trip to San Diego.

Let x = amount which Kobe collected

Let y = amount which Amari collected

Let z= amount which Dj collected.

Kobe collected $18.50 more than A‘Mari. This means

x= y + 18.5 - - - - - - 1

DJ collected $12.25 less than Kobe

z = x-12.25 - - -- - - - - 2

Total sum collected by the 3 boys

= $95.70 This means

x + y+ z= 95.70 - -- - -- - -3

Put x = y + 18.5 in equation 3 and also

x= z+12.25 in equation 3

y + 18.5 + y+ z= 95.70

2y +z = 95.70-18.5 = 77.2

2y +z = 77.2 - - - - - -4

z + 12.25 + y+ z= 95.70

y +2z = 83.45 - - - - - -- - 5

Multiply equation 4 by 1 and equation 5 by 2

2y +z = 77.2

2y + 4z = 166.9

-3z = -89.7

z = 89.7/3= 29.9

Put z =29.9 in 2y+z = 77.2

2y +29.9= 77.2

2y = 77.2-29.9= 47.3

y = 47.3/2 = 23.65

Put y=23.65 and z = 29.9 in equation 3

x + 23.65+ 29.9= 95.70

x = 95.70-53.55

=$42.15

So Kobe collected $42.15

The top of a hill rises 428 feet above Checkpoint 2 (-189) What is the altitude of the top of the hill?
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

239 FEET.

Step-by-step explanation:

the altitude of the hill must be subtracted by the depth of the ckeckpoint(2)(-189)

therefore the altitude of the hill comes out to be 428-189=239feet.

therefore,the actual altitude of the hill is 239 feet.
