Answer:

The numbers are 3, 12 and 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers =x, y and z.

The sum of three numbers is 20 implies x+y+z=20----------------i

The second number is 4 times the first implies y=4x--------------ii

The sum of the first and the third is 8 means x+z=8---------------iii

from (i), z=20-x-y---------iv

Put (iv) in (iii),

x+20-x-y=8

20-y=8

y=20-8=12

y=12

Put y=12 in (ii)

4x=y

x=y/4 = 12/4 = 3

x=3

Put x=3 and y=12 in (iv)

z=20-3-12=5

z=5

Therefore, the numbers are 3, 12 and 5.

Circle O and triangle OQR are shown below. What is the length of OQ?
zysi [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A circle is inscribed in an equilateral triangle PQR with centre O. If angle OQR = 30°, what is the perimeter of the triangle?

This is a circle inscribed in an equilateral triangle with side s.

If you are asking for the perimeter of PQR, it is 3s.

If you are asking for the perimeter of OQR, it is (3+23–√3)s

Since OR and SR are the hypotenuses of right triangles with adjacent side equal to ½ s, their length is ½s / cos 30° = (√3) /3.

(3/3)s + ((√3) /3)s + ((√3) /3)s = ((3 + 2√3)/3)s ≈ 2.1547s

1.  total volume of box=2.5(V)D

2. 7 Drawers

Step-by-step explanation:

2.5 = V

so 1 draw = 2.5 cubic inches of volume

so V(2.5) × D(number of drawers) = total volume of drawers in the box

  • 7x=-63-11y-(1)
  • 8x=93+11y--(2)

Adding both

  • 15x=30
  • x=2

Putting in second one

  • 8(2)=93+11y
  • 11y=16-93
  • 11y=-77
  • y=-7
