The larger of two consecutive integers is 10 more than 4 times the smaller. Find the integers.

Mathematics
1 answer:
nevsk [136]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

-2 and -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent the large integer and S represent the smaller integer

Given  Large Integer = 10 + 4 times Smaller Integer

Mathematically:

L = 10 + 4S -------eq 1

It is also given that the integers are consecutive,

hence L = S + 1------ eq2

Now we can solve a system of equations by substitution.

Substitute eq 2 into eq 1

S + 1 = 10 + 4S    (subtract 1 from both sides)

S = 10 - 1 + 4S

S = 9 + 4S  (subtract 4S from both sides)

S - 4S = 9

-3S = 9 (divide both sides by -3)

S = 9 / (-3) = -3  (answer)

form equation 2,

L = S + 1

L = -3 + 1

L = -2 (answer)

-18= 5-(6k - 19) i have the answer but i need help on how to get the answer 7?
insens350 [35]

Answer:

k = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

-18 = 5 - (6k - 19)

Step 2: Solve for <em>k</em>

<u>Distribute negative:</u> -18 = 5 - 6k + 19

<u>Combine like terms:</u> -18 = -6k + 24

<u>Subtract 24 on both sides:</u> -42 = -6k

<u>Divide both sides by -6:</u> k = 7

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in k to verify it's a solution.</em>

-18 = 5 - (6(7) - 19)

-18 = 5 - (42 - 19)

-18 = 5 - 23

-18 = -18

X^2+4x+y^2-10y+20=30 find the center of the circle by completing the square
swat32

Answer:

a). Center of the circle = (-2, 5)

b). Equation of the line ⇒ y = -\frac{4}{5}x+\frac{58}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of the circle is,

x² + 4x + y²- 10y + 20 = 30

a). [x² + 2(2)x + 4 - 4] + [y²- 2(5)y + 25] - 25 + 20 = 30

   [x² + 2(2)x + 4] - 4 + [y² - 2(5)y + 25] - 25 + 20 = 30

   (x + 2)² + (y - 5)²- 29 + 20 = 30

   (x + 2)² + (y - 5)²- 9 = 30

   (x + 2)² + (y - 5)² = 39

By comparing this equation with the standard equation of a circle,

    Center of the circle is (-2, 5).

b). A point (2, 10) lies on this circle.

    Slope of the line joining this point to the center (-2, 5),

    m_{1}=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

          = \frac{10-5}{2+2}

          = \frac{5}{4}

    Let the slope of the tangent which is perpendicular to this line is 'm_{2}'

    Then by the property of perpendicular lines,

          m_{1}\times m_{2}=-1

          \frac{5}{4}\times m_{2}=-1

                 m_{2}=-\frac{4}{5}

   Now the equation of the line passing though (2, 10) having slope m_{2}=-\frac{4}{5}

           y - y' = m_{2}(x-x')

           y - 10 = -\frac{4}{5}(x-2)

           y - 10 = -\frac{4}{5}x+\frac{8}{5}

                  y = -\frac{4}{5}x+\frac{8}{5}+10

                  y = -\frac{4}{5}x+\frac{58}{5}

Therefore, equation of the line will be, y = -\frac{4}{5}x+\frac{58}{5}

The container that holds the water for the football team is 7/10 full. After pouring out 5 gallons of water, it is 1/2 full. How
Shtirlitz [24]
7/10x - 5 = 1/2x
7/10x - 1/2x = 5
7/10x - 5/10x = 5
2/10x = 5
x = 5 / (2/10)
x = 5 * 10/2
x = 50/2
x = 25 gallons <===
