IgorLugansk [536]3 years ago

Answer:

Carly has 17 jerseys

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the number of jerseys Carly has

Let the number of jersey Carly has be c

Armond has 3 times what Carly has. The number of jerseys Armond has will be 3 * c = 3c

Carly has 5 more jerseys than Mandy; this means that the number of jerseys Mandy has is c-5 jerseys

Adding all, we have 80 jerseys

Thus;

c + 3c + c-5 = 80

5c -5 = 80

5c = 80 + 5

5c = 85

c = 85/5

c = 17

David made a triangle with sides 6 cm, 9cm , 12 cm. George wanted to make a triangle bigger in size but similar to that drawn by
SashulF [63]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

\triangle ABC \sim \triangle XYZ .△ABC∼△XYZ.

AB = 6\:cm, \:BC = 9 \:cm, CA = 12 \:cmAB=6cm,BC=9cm,CA=12cm

Let \: XY = 10\:cm, \:YZ = x \:cm, \: XZ = y /:cmLetXY=10cm,YZ=xcm,XZ=y/:cm

\frac{AB}{XY} = \frac{BC}{x} = \frac{CA}{y}XYAB=xBC=yCA

\blue {( The \: lengths \:of \: corresponding }(Thelengthsofcorresponding

\blue {sides \:are \: proportional .)}sidesareproportional.)

\implies \frac{6}{10} = \frac{9}{x} = \frac{12}{y}⟹106=x9=y12

i) \implies \frac{6}{10} = \frac{9}{x}i)⟹106=x9

\implies x = \frac{9 \times 10}{6}⟹x=69×10

\implies x = 15\:cm⟹x=15cm

ii) \implies \frac{6}{10} = \frac{12}{y}ii)⟹106=y12

\implies y = \frac{12 \times 10}{6}⟹y=612×10

\implies y = 20\:cm⟹y=20cm

Therefore.,

\red { Value \:of \:x } \green { = 15\:cm }Valueofx=15cm

\red { Value \:of \:y } \green { = 20\:cm }Valueofy=20cm

Water is being drained at a constant rate from a tank.
saw5 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1000 gallons - 940 = 60 then divide by the time which gets us 60/10=6

Now we can use this answer to help find out the amount remaining in the tank.

5 minutes = 5x6=30; 1000-30= 970 gallons

20 minutes= 20x6=120; 1000-120= 880 gallons

30 minutes=30x6=180; 1000-180= 820 gallons

27 minutes=27x6=162; 1000-162= 838 gallons

X minutes = 1000-6x

Rate of flow is 6 gallons per minute.

Hope this helps!

Solve the system of equations by elimination.<br><br> 2x+8y=10<br><br> -4x-9y=-13<br><br> x = y =
Reptile [31]
So use cancelation
multiply first equation by 2
2x+8y=10
times 2
4x+16y=20
now add

4x+16y=20
<u>-4x-9y=-13   +
</u>0x+7y=7
7y=7
divide by 7
y=1

subsittue

2x+8y=10
2x+8(1)=10
2x+8=10
subtract 8 from both sides
2x=2
divide by 2
x=1


x=1
y=1

According to the data reported by the New York State Department of Health regarding West Nile Virus for the years 2000-2004, the
hjlf

Answer:

31 human cases.

Step-by-step explanation:

The least squares line equation for the number of reported dead birds (x), versus the number of human West Nile virus cases (y) is

y = -10.2638 + 0.0491x

If the number dead birds reported in a year is 844, then we have to find the numbers of human cases of West Nile virus.

To find the numbers we will plug in the value of x = 844 in the linear equation.

y = -10.2638 + 0.0491(844)

  = -10.2638 + 41.4404

  = 31.1766

  ≈ 31

Therefore, 31 human cases can be expected.
