Manoj and Tamar are arguing about how a number trick they heard goes. Tamar tells their friend Andrew to think of a number, mult

iply it by five, and subtract three from the result. Then Manoj tells Andrew to think of a number, add five, and multiply the result by three. Andrew says that whichever way he does the trick he gets the same answer. What was Andrew's number? Justify your answer.

X - Andrew`s number;
x * 5 - 3 = ( x + 5 ) * 3
5 x - 3 = 3 x + 15
5 x - 3 x = 15 + 3
2 x = 18
x = 18 : 2
x = 9
Andrew`s number is 9.
Justify:
9 - 5 - 3 = 45 - 3 = 42
( 9 + 5 ) * 3 = 14 * 3 = 42

The complete statement is:

  • Determine the number of tables by dividing 754 by 6
  • If there is a remainder, the answer will need to be rounded.
  • There is a remainder, so 126 tables are needed.

<h3>How to determine the number of tables?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Students = 754

Student per table = 6

The number of tables is calculated as:

Table = Students / Student per table

This gives

Table = 754/6

Evaluate the quotient

Table = 125.7

Approximate

Table = 126

Hence, the complete statement is:

Determine the number of tables by dividing 754 by 6

If there is a remainder, the answer will need to be rounded.

There is a remainder, so 126 tables are needed.

How are the real solutions of a quadratic equation related to the graph of the quadratic function?
Anika [276]
The solutions you get when you solve the formula are the corresponding y coordinates to your x value. So say a point on your graph is (2,3). The first number is x and the second is y. (x,y). The number you plug into your function is x,or in this case: 2. The solution to the equation when the x value is plugged in is y, or 3. Therefore, giving you a point on your graph.

Help!! Lots of points
murzikaleks [220]

\frac{ {5}^{2} }{ {2}^{2} }  =  {( \frac{5}{2}) }^{2}
Since they are both squared.

Evaluating 5^2 and 2^2 and finding the quotient also works.

\frac{ {5}^{2} }{ {2}^{2} } =  \frac{5 \times 5}{2 \times 2}   =  \frac{25}{4}  = 6.25\\  \frac{ {5}^{2} }{ {2}^{2} }  =  {( \frac{5}{2} )}^{2}  = 2.5 \times 2.5 = 6.25
The third option, "Evaluate 5^2 and 2^2 ...," and the last option, "Rewrite the expression as (5/2)^2 ...," are the correct choices.

Answer:

volume of cone = 12.56 cubic units

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of cone = 1/3  π r² h

            r = 2

            h = 3

then

V= 1/3 3.14 * (2) ² 3

 = 12.56 cubic units
