the sum of the reversed number and the original number is 154. Find the original number, if the ones digit in it is 2 less than

the tens digit.

Answer:

86

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be 10x + y. So, the reversed number is 10y + x.

The sum is 154.

So, (10x + y) + (10y + x) = 154

⇒ 11x + 11y = 154

⇒ x + y = 14 ..... (1)

Again, given that ones digit in the original number is 2 less than the tens digit.

So, y = x - 2 ...... (2)

Now, solving (1) and (2) we get,

x + x -2 = 14

⇒ 2x = 16

⇒ x = 8

So, from equation (2), y = x - 2 = 8 - 2 = 6

Therefore, the original number is 10x + y = 10 × 8 + 6 = 86 (Answer)

Number of solutions to a system of equations algebraic. How many solutions does the system have? Can someone help me please....

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

A Exactly 1 solution

Step-by-step explanation:

if we express both equations as y = mx+b

we will see that both equations have different slopes (i.e "m" values are different).

By definition, 2 straight lines of different slopes will intersect at only one location (i.e there is only one solution)

For which function is f(x) equal to f^1(x) ( answer choices in picture )

Sonja [21]

Answer:

C. $f(x)=\frac{x+1}{x-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the inverse of each of the given options.

Option A:

$f(x)=\frac{x+6}{x-6}\\y=\frac{x+6}{x-6}$

To find $f^{-1}(x)$ , replace 'x' with 'y' and 'y' with 'x'. This gives,

$x=\frac{y+6}{y-6}$

Rewrite in terms of 'y'. This gives,

$x(y-6)=y+6\\xy-6x=y+6\\xy-y=6x+6\\y=\frac{6x+6}{x-1}$

The given function $y=\frac{6x+6}{x-1}\ne y=\frac{x+6}{x-6}$

So, option A is incorrect.

Option B:

$f(x)=\frac{x+2}{x-2}\\y=\frac{x+2}{x-2}$

To find $f^{-1}(x)$ , replace 'x' with 'y' and 'y' with 'x'. This gives,

$x=\frac{y+2}{y-2}$

Rewrite in terms of 'y'. This gives,

$x(y-2)=y+2\\xy-2x=y+2\\xy-y=2x+2\\y=\frac{2x+2}{x-1}$

The given function $y=\frac{2x+2}{x-1}\ne y=\frac{x+2}{x-2}$

So, option B is incorrect.

Option C:

$f(x)=\frac{x+1}{x-1}\\y=\frac{x+1}{x-1}$

To find $f^{-1}(x)$ , replace 'x' with 'y' and 'y' with 'x'. This gives,

$x=\frac{y+1}{y-1}$

Rewrite in terms of 'y'. This gives,

$x(y-1)=y+1\\xy-x=y+1\\xy-y=x+1\\y=\frac{x+1}{x-1}$

The given function $y=\frac{x+1}{x-1}\ equals\ y=\frac{x+1}{x-1}$

So, option C is correct.

Option D:

$f(x)=\frac{x+5}{x-5}\\y=\frac{x+5}{x-5}$

To find $f^{-1}(x)$ , replace 'x' with 'y' and 'y' with 'x'. This gives,

$x=\frac{y+5}{y-5}$

Rewrite in terms of 'y'. This gives,

$x(y-5)=y+5\\xy-5x=y+5\\xy-y=5x+5\\y=\frac{5x+5}{x-1}$

The given function $y=\frac{5x+5}{x-1}\ne y=\frac{x+6}{x-6}$

So, option D is incorrect.

Therefore, only option C is correct.

Ms. Bell's mathematics class consists of 12 sophomores, 8 juniors, and 9 seniors. How many different ways can Ms. Bell create a

shtirl [24]

Answer:

792

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a combination question. The order is of no consequence. Also the fact that there are juniors and seniors is not important either.

So the answer is

12C5

12!

====

(12 - 5)! * 5!

12 * 11 * 10 * 9 * 8

==============

5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1

Simplify the square root of 3 times the fifth root of 3.

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

<h2><em>Three to the three fifths power.</em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

$\sqrt{3\sqrt[5]{3} }$

To simplify this expression, we have to use a specific power property which allow us to transform a root into a power with a fractional exponent, the property states:

$\sqrt[n]{x^{m}}=x^{\frac{m}{n}}$

Applying the property, we have:

$\sqrt{3\sqrt[5]{3}}=\sqrt{3(3)^{\frac{1}{5}}}=(3(3)^{\frac{1}{5}})^{\frac{1}{2}}$

Now, we multiply exponents:

$(3(3)^{\frac{1}{5}})^{\frac{1}{2}}\\3^{\frac{1}{2}}3^{\frac{1}{10}}$

Then, we sum exponents to get the simplest form:

$3^{\frac{1}{2}}3^{\frac{1}{10}}=3^{\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{10}} =3^{\frac{10+2}{20}}=3^{\frac{12}{20}} \\\therefore \sqrt{3\sqrt[5]{3}}=3^{\frac{3}{5} }$

Therefore, the right answer is <em>three to the three fifths power.</em>
