180$ on herself

170$ on her family

because 350$ was her total whne she started used -180$ on herself subtracting that she is left with 170$ at the end to spent on presents

Find two consecutive even numbers such that the difference of one-half the larger and two-fifths the smaller is equal to 38

expeople1 [14]

EXPLANATION

The consecutive even numbers are
$370 \: and \: 372$

EXPLANATION

Let
$x$
be the first even number then, the next even number will be,

$x + 2$

The difference of one-half the larger one and two-fifth the smaller one is 38 gives the equation,

$\frac{1}{2} (x + 2) - \frac{2}{5} x = 38$

We multiply through with an LCM of 10 to get,

$10 \times \frac{1}{2} (x + 2) - 10 \times \frac{2}{5} x = 38 \times 10$

This simplifies to,

$5(x + 2) - 4x = 380$

We expand the brackets to get,

$5x + 10 - 4x = 380$

We group like terms to get,

$5x - 4x = 380 - 10$

This simplifies to
$x = 370$

Therefore the next even number is is
$372$

Solve the quadratic for x, then enter the numerical value of your solution. (If there are two solutions, either one will work.)

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer: X= -1 OR X= 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 : Equate ( x-5)² since it occurred twice, hence the reason 2 is added in front of (x-5)²

= (x-5)²

= (x-5)(x-5)

= (x²-5x-5x+25)

= (x²-10x+25)

Step 2: multiply the result by two since it occurs twice and also bring the equation

= 2 (x²-10x+25) +7 = 79

= 2x²- 20x+50+7 = 79

= 2x²- 20x+57 =79

Step 3: most quadratic equation are always equal to zero, let's make this one equal to Zero by subtracting 79 from both sides

= 2x²-20x+57-79 = 79-79

= 2x²-20x-22=0

Step 4: divide the equation by a common number to get the least coefficient of the three coefficients

Dividing the three by 2

(2x²-20x-22)/2 = x²- 10x- 11

Step 5: Factorise completely

Sub step 1 : the first term in the equation is X² which makes the first term coefficient 1; the second term in the equation is -10x which makes the second term coefficient -10, the constant has a coefficient of -11

Sub step 2: multiply the coefficient of the first term (1) and the constant (-11) which gives us (-11)

1*-11 = -11

Sub step 3: Get two numbers in such a way that the addition of the first number and the second number gives the second coefficient in the quadratic equation and the multiplication of the two numbers will give us the product of the first coefficient and the constant.

And the two numbers is +1 and -11, the sum of the two numbers will give us -10 and the product will give us -11.

Step 6: slot the two numbers (+1, -11) into the equation by making themr replace the second coefficient

x²-10x-11=0

= x²+x-11x-11 =0

Step 7: split the equation into two and Factorise further

= (x²+x)(-11x-11) =0

= x(x+1)-11(x+1) = 0

= x+1= 0 or x-11 =0

Step 8 split them into individual equation

= x+1= 0.

Subtract 1 from both sides

= X+1-1=0-1

= x= -1

Or X should be

= x-11=0

Add 11 to both sides

= X-11+11 = 0+11

= x= 11

Distribute $1000 into three parts so that one part will be three times as large as the second and the third part will be as larg

Over [174]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

x = part 1

3x = part 2

x + 3x = part 3 summed, they equal 1000

x + 3x + x + 3x = 1000

8x = 1000

<u>x = 125 3x = 385 third part = 500 </u>
