Richard = R & Teo = T

Richard & Teo are combined 41 it means R + T = 41

R = 8 + 2T

R + T = 41 #1

R = 8 + 2T #2

replace 2 in 1

8 + 2T + T = 41

8 + 3T = 41

3T = 41 -8 = 33

T = 11

R = 8 + 2*11 = 30

result = richard is 30 & teo is 11 years old.

2 times of Teo is 22

and 8 years older it means + 8

= 30

Find a ·<br> b. |a| = 80, |b| = 50, the angle between a and b is 3π/4.

mart [117]

Answer:

$a\cdot b=-2000\sqrt{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: |a| = 80, |b| = 50, the angle between a and b is 3π/4.

We need to find the dot product a · b.

The formula of dot product is

$a\cdot b=|a||b|\cos \theta$

where, θ is the angle between a and b.

Substitute the given values in the above formula.

$a\cdot b=(80)(50)\cos (\frac{3\pi}{4})$

$a\cdot b=4000\cos (\pi-\frac{\pi}{4})$

$a\cdot b=-4000\cos (\frac{\pi}{4})$ $[\because \cos (\pi-\theta)=-\cos \theta]$

$a\cdot b=-4000\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$

$a\cdot b=-\frac{4000}{\sqrt{2}}$

Rationalize the above equation.

$a\cdot b=-\frac{4000}{\sqrt{2}}\times \frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}$

$a\cdot b=-\frac{4000\sqrt{2}}{2}$

$a\cdot b=-2000\sqrt{2}$

Therefore, the value of a · b is $a\cdot b=-2000\sqrt{2}$ .

Wyatt is working two summber jobs, washing cars and tutoring. He must work no less than 12 hours altogether between both jobs in

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

$w+t\geq 12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Please consider the complete question.

Wyatt is working two summer jobs, washing cars and tutoring. He must work no less than 12 hours altogether between both jobs in a given week. Write an inequality that would represent the possible values for the number of hours washing cars, w, and the number of hours tutoring, t, that Wyatt can work in a given week.

The number of hours altogether between both jobs would be $w+t$ .

Since Wyatt must work no less than 12 hours altogether between both jobs in a given week, so hours in both jobs should be greater than or equal to 12. We can represent this information in an inequality as:

$w+t\geq 12$

Therefore, our required inequality would be $w+t\geq 12$ .
