Answer:  The required number is 16.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the number such that \dfrac{3}{4} times of that number is equal to 12.

Let the required number be represented by x.

Then, according to the given information, we have

\dfrac{3}{4}\times x=12\\\\\Rightarrow 3x=48\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{48}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow x=16.

Thus, the required number is 16.

Brittany and Ashley can paint a room in 7 hours if they work together. If Ashley were to work by himself, it would take him 2 ho
stich3 [128]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Brittany paints the room in x hours, completing 1/x of the room per hour.

Ashley paints the room in x+2 hours, completing 1/(x+2) of the room per hour.

Working together, they complete 1/x + 1/(x+2) = ⅐ of the room per hour.

7(x+2) + 7x = x(x+2)

14x + 15 = x^2 + 2x

x^2 - 12x - 15 = 0

x = [12 ±√(12²+60)]/2= 6±√51

6-√51 is an extraneous solution.

x = 6+√51 ≈ 13.14

Brittany paints the room in 12.14 hours

Find 2 numbers who product is 15 and sum is 16.​
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

15 and 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x and y are two numbers.

Two equations:

x · y = 15

x + y = 16

Rearrange one of the equations (I'll rearrange the sum equation):

x + y = 16

x = 16 - y

Substitute that to the other equation and solve for y:

x · y = 15

(16 - y) · y = 15

16 - y · y = 15

16 - y² = 15

-y² = 15 - 16

-y² = -1

y² = 1

y = √1

y = 1

Now substitute that to any of the equation and solve for x (in here, I'll choose the multiplication one):

x · y = 15

x · 1 = 15

x = 15

Now verify:

15 · 1 = 15

15 + 1 = 16

This is correct

Find the values of the variables and the measures of the angles
Alekssandra [29.7K]

The angles of the triangle are 39°, 51°, and 90°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The sum of all the angles in any triangle is equal to 180°.

We have two of the three angles in terms of x while the third angle is not given directly. Since it is a right-angled triangle, one of the angles equals 90°.

So the angles of the triangle are 3x, 4x-1, and 90.

Step 2:

Now, we substitute all the angles to a sum of 180 to determine the value of x.

3x + 4x - 1 + 90 = 180.

7x = 91, x = \frac{91}{7} = 13.

So x = 13°. The angles are

3x = 3 (13) = 39, 4x-1 = 4(13) - 1 = 51.

The angles of the triangle are 39°, 51°, and 90°.
