a. The expression y=5x represent the number of small marbles she has.

b. The expression z=3x+2 represents the number of large marbles she has.

c. Amy has 310 small marbles, 62 medium marbles and  188 large marbles.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Let x represent the number of medium marbles Amy has. Write an algebraic expression to represent the number of small marbles she has.

Medium marbles = x

Let,

Small marbles = y

According to given statement;

She has five times as many small marbles as medium marbles.

y = 5x        Eqn 1

The expression y=5x represent the number of small marbles she has.

b. Write an algebraic expression to represent the number of large marbles she has.

Let,

Large marbles = z

The number of large marbles is two more than three times the number of medium marbles.

z = 3x+2        Eqn 2

The expression z=3x+2 represents the number of large marbles she has.

c. If Amy has a total of 560 marbles, how many of each size does she have?

x+y+z= 560     Eqn 3

Putting value of y and z from Eqn 1 and 2 in Eqn 3

x+(5x)+(3x+2)=560\\x+5x+3x+2=560\\9x=560-2\\9x=558

Dividing both sides by 9

\frac{9x}{9}=\frac{558}{9}\\x=62

Putting x=62 in Eqn 1

y=5(62)\\y=310

Putting x=62 in Eqn 2

z=3(62)+2\\z=186+2\\z=188

Amy has 310 small marbles, 62 medium marbles and  188 large marbles.

Thethree sides of a triangle measure 810 and 12 units is this a right angle?
Alja [10]

Answer:

The given triangle is NOT A RIGHT ANGLED TRIANGLE.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the three given sides of the triangle are:

8 units, 10 units and 12 units

Now, for any triangle to be a right angle:

by the PYTHAGORAS THEOREM:

(Base)^2 + (Perpendicular)^2  = (Hypotenuse)^2

The longest of all sides id the hypotenuse.

⇒ H  = 12 units

Let us assume, B = 8 units, P = 10 units

Now, here checking the condition:

(8)^2  + (10)^2  = 64  + 100  = 164  \neq (12)^2  = 144\\\implies (B)^2  + (P)^2  \neq (H)^2

Hence, the given triangle is NOT A RIGHT ANGLED TRIANGLE.

Find a set of parametric equations for the rectangular equation that satisfies the given condition. (Enter your answers as a com
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

x = 3 - t and y = 4 - 2t

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find such a set of parametric equations for the given equation which result in an x-value equal to 3 and a y-value equal to 4 when t is substituted as 0.

There can be more than 1 possible answers to this problem. You have to use hit and trial method to come up with the correct set of parametric equations. One of the possible set is:

y = 4 - 2t , x = 3 - t

For t = 0

x= 3 and y = 4

Hence, the condition is satisfied.

Now checking if these parametric equations result in given equation or not.

From second equation, we get:

t = 3 - x

Using this value in first equation, we get:

y = 4 - 2(3 - x)

y = 4 - 6 + 2x

y = 2x - 2

Which is the given equation.

Hence the set of parametric equation is:

x = 3 - t and y = 4 - 2t
