Mathematics

Answer:

The weight of the object is 3 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>

Let object weight be x kg.

Now, as per the available data,

3/4 kg + 3/4 (x kg) = x kg

<u>Step 2: </u>

3/4 (1 + x) = x

1 + x = 4x/3

1 = x (4/3 - 1)

x = 1 / (1/3)

x = 3

Weight of Object is 3 kg.

<u>Step 3: </u>

Let's check if this value satisfies the first equation.

3/4 + 3/4 x 3 = 3/4 + 9/4 = 12/4 = 3

Hence proved.

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

1.57

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have two equations regarding the number of quarters <em>q</em> and the number of pennies <em>p:</em>

<em />p+q<em />

Which represents the total amount of coins and

0.01p+0.25q

Which represents the total amount of money in dollars.

So we are asked to evaluation each expression for the situation in which we have 6 quarters and 7 pennies. Thus, plug 6 in for <em>q</em> and 7 in for <em>p:</em>

<em />p+q\\(7)+(6)=13<em />

This tells us that we have 16 coins in total.

0.01(7)+0.25(6)\\=0.07+1.50\\=1.57

This tells us that we have a total amount of $1.57.

What is FG?<br><br> NEED HELP QUICK!!
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

FG = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

FD is an angle bisector and divides the opposite side into segments that are proportional to the other 2 sides, that is

\frac{24}{54} = \frac{x}{x+10} ( cross- multiply )

54x = 24(x + 10)

54x = 24x + 240 ( subtract 24x from both sides )

30x = 240 ( divide both sides by 30 )

x = 8

Then

FG = x + 10 = 8 + 10 = 18
