Question 10

Mathematics
1 answer:
Agata [3.3K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A = 21

J = 2A = 42

C= A+5 =26



Step-by-step explanation:

C= christines text messages

J = jims messages

A = ali messages

Jim sent  2 times as many messages as Ali.

J = 2A

Ali sent  5 fewer messages than Christine.

A =C-5

A+5 =C

Christine, Jim, and Ali sent a total of 89 text messages

C+J+A = 89

substitute

C +5= A

A+5 +J+A = 89

combine like terms

2A +5+J = 89

now substitute J = 2A

2A +5+2A = 89

combine like terms

4A +5 = 89

subtract 5 to each side

4A +5-5 = 89-5

4A = 84

divide by 4

A = 21

J = 2A = 42

C= A+5 =26

A The number of tropical fish that an aquarium can hold depends on the volume of the fish tank. The interior dimensions of a fis
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to first of all find the volume of the fish tank. The most probable shape the ship tank can have is that of a cuboid.

The volume of a cuboid is l * b * h

And this is equals 30cm * 70cm * 90cm = 189,000 cubic centimeters

The number of fish the tank can contain can be obtained by dividing the volume by the volume occupied by a single fish.

This is 189,000/27000 = 7

Point R divides in the ratio 1 : 3. If the x-coordinate of R is -1 and the x-coordinate of P is -3, what is the x-coordinate of
Anon25 [30]

The x coordinate of Q would be 5.

In order to find this, first note that P and R are exactly 2 away from each other (-1 to -3 is two away).

Now, we know that Q is 3 times as far away from R as P is given the ratio at the beginning. Therefore we know it is 6 away from R (2 * 3 = 6).

Now we simply add 6 to the R value to get the Q value.

-1 + 6 = 5

-8 times the quantity 4 decreased by w
telo118 [61]
If this is what I'm thinking then the answer would be
W-4(-8) or simplified when you combine like terms
W+32
The variable always goes in the front of the expression and -4 times -8 would give you positive 32. (Negative times negative always gives you a positive outcome)

I need help solving. The answer is (2,-6)
faust18 [17]

Since we are given x in terms of y, the most efficient way to solve it would be to substitute in the \frac{1}{2}y+5 for x in the second equation. So, we then have:

2(\frac{y}{2}+5)+3y=-14 \implies \\
y+10+3y=-14 \implies \\
4y+10=-14 \implies\\
4y=-24 \implies \\
y=-6

So, now that we have our y, we can find x. We can actually use either equation, top or bottom, to find x, but to be efficient we should use the top one since we have x in terms of y, so:

x=\frac{-6}{2}+5 \implies \\
x=-3+5 \implies \\
x=2

So, our ordered pair is (2,-6).
