A group of 86 people consist of men women and children. There are twice as many women then there are men. There are 6 more child

weqwewe [10]

Answer: 16 men

32 women

38 children

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of men in the group.

Let y represent the number if women in the group.

Let z represent the number of children in the group.

A group of 86 people consist of men women and children. This means that

x + y + z = 86 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1

There are twice as many women than there are men. It means that

x = y/2

There are 6 more children than there are women. This means that

z = y + 6

Substituting x = y/2 and z = y + 6 into equation 1, it becomes

y/2 + y + y + 6 = 86

multiplying through by 2, it becomes

y + 2y + 2y + 12 = 172

5y = 172 - 12 = 160

y = 160/5 = 32

x = y/2 = 32/2

x = 16

z = y + 6 = 32 + 6

z = 38

Inequalities are used to express unequal expressions.

The inequalities from the word problems are:

$\mathbf{m - 3.5 \le -2}$ .
$\mathbf{0 \ge 2x + 1}$ .
$\mathbf{-\frac 12 \ge 2k - 4}$

The statements from the inequalities are:

-4 is not a solution to $\mathbf{x + 8 < -3}$
-6 is not a solution to $\mathbf{10 \le 3 - m}$
-1 is not a solution to $\mathbf{-3x \le -12.5}$

Graph b represents $\mathbf{x > -7}$

<h3>The word problems</h3>

<u>1. A number minus 3.5 is less than or equal to -2</u>

The statement can be broken down into the following expressions

$\mathbf{A\ number\ minus\ 3.5 \to m - 3.5}$

$\mathbf{less\ than\ or\ equal\ to\ -2 \to \le -2}$

So, when the expressions are brought together, we have:

$\mathbf{m - 3.5 \le -2}$

<u>2. Zero is greater than or equal to twice a number x plus 1</u>

The statement can be broken down into the following expressions

$\mathbf{Zero\ is\ greater\ than\ or\ equal\ to \to 0 \ge }$

$\mathbf{twice\ a\ number\ x\ plus\ 1\ \to 2x + 1}$

So, when the expressions are brought together, we have:

$\mathbf{0 \ge 2x + 1}$

<u />

<u>3. -1/2 is at least twice a number k minus 4</u>

The statement can be broken down into the following expressions

$\mathbf{-\frac 12\ is\ at\ least \to -\frac 12 \ge }$

$\mathbf{twice\ a\ number\ k\ minus\ 4\ \to 2k - 4}$

So, when the expressions are brought together, we have:

$\mathbf{-\frac12 \ge 2k - 4}$

None of the options is correct

<h3>The solutions</h3>

<u>4. Tell whether -4 is a solution to x + 8 < -3</u>

We have:

$\mathbf{x + 8$

Subtract 8 from both sides

$\mathbf{x + 8 - 8$

$\mathbf{x$

The above inequality means that:

-4 is not a solution, because -4 is greater than -11

<u>5. Tell whether -6 is a solution to 10 <= 3 - m</u>

We have:

$\mathbf{10 \le 3 - m}$

Subtract 3 from both sides

$\mathbf{10 -3\le 3 - 3 - m}$

$\mathbf{7 \le - m}$

Multiply both sides by -1 (the inequality sign changes)

$\mathbf{-7 \ge m}$

Make m the subject

$\mathbf{m \le -7}$

The above inequality means that:

-6 is not a solution, because -6 is greater than -7

<u>6. Tell whether -1 is a solution to -3x <= -12.5</u>

We have:

$\mathbf{-3x \le -12.5}$

Divide both sides by -3 (the inequality sign changes)

$\mathbf{x \ge 4\frac16}$

The above inequality means that:

<em>x is greater than or equal to </em> $\mathbf{4\frac16}$ <em />

-1 is not a solution, because -1 is less than $\mathbf{4\frac16}$ <em />

<h3>The graph</h3>

The inequality is given as: $\mathbf{x > -7}$

The less than sign (>) means that:

The graph would use an open circle
The arrow must point to the right

Only graph b satisfies this condition

Hence, the graph of $\mathbf{x > -7}$ is graph b

What is the exact value of sin(theta + beta)?

NISA [10]

Answer: $\frac{-3\sqrt{13}+4\sqrt{3}}{20}$

This is the single fraction of -3*sqrt(13)+4*sqrt(3) up top all over 20.

sqrt = square root

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

Explanation:

Angle theta is between pi and 3pi/2. This places the angle in quadrant Q3 where both cosine and sine are negative

Use the pythagorean trig identity to get the following:

$\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1\\\\\sin^2 \theta + \left(-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\right)^2 = 1\\\\\sin^2 \theta + \frac{3}{16} = 1\\\\\sin^2 \theta = 1 - \frac{3}{16}\\\\\sin^2 \theta = \frac{16}{16} - \frac{3}{16}\\\\\sin^2 \theta = \frac{16-3}{16}\\\\\sin^2 \theta = \frac{13}{16}\\\\\sin \theta = -\sqrt{\frac{13}{16}} \ \text{ ... sine is negative in Q3}\\\\\sin \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{13}}{\sqrt{16}}\\\\\sin \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{13}}{4}\\\\$

Angle beta is in Q1 where sine and cosine are positive.

Draw a right triangle with legs 3 and 4. The hypotenuse is 5 through the pythagorean theorem. In other words, we have a 3-4-5 right triangle.

Since $\tan \beta = \frac{3}{4}$ , this means $\sin \beta = \frac{3}{5} \ \text{ and } \ \cos \beta = \frac{4}{5}$

Use these ideas:

sin = opposite/hypotenuse
cos = adjacent/hypotenuse
tan = opposite/adjacent

In this case we have: opposite = 3, adjacent = 4, hypotenuse = 5.

-------------------------------------

To recap:

$\cos \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\\\\\sin \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{13}}{4}\\\\\cos \beta = \frac{3}{5}\\\\\sin \beta = \frac{4}{5}\\\\$

They lead to this

$\sin\left(\theta + \beta\right) = \sin \theta * \cos \beta - \cos \theta * \sin \beta\\\\\sin\left(\theta + \beta\right) = -\frac{\sqrt{13}}{4} * \frac{3}{5} - \left(-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\right) * \frac{4}{5}\\\\\sin\left(\theta + \beta\right) = -\frac{3\sqrt{13}}{20}+\frac{4\sqrt{3}}{20}\\\\\sin\left(\theta + \beta\right) = \frac{-3\sqrt{13}+4\sqrt{3}}{20}\\\\$
