Answer:

The numbers of test tubes are 150 and beakers are 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

we have to  find numbers of beaker ans test tubes in chemistry lab

Given statement is "Five times the number of test tubes in a school’s chemistry lab exceeds three times the number of beakers it has by 660. The sum of two times the number of test tubes and five times the number of beakers is 450"

Let the number of beakers be b

and Let the number of test tubes be t

According to question

5t-3b=660           ......(1)

2t+5b=450          ......(2)

solve linear equation by substitution method,

isolate the b in equation (1)

5t-3b=660

subtract both the sides by 5t,

-3b=660-5t

divide both the sides  by -3,

tex]b=\frac{5t-660}{3}[/tex]

substitute the value of b in equation (2)

2t+5(\frac{5t-660}{3})=450

2t+(\frac{25t-3300}{3})=450

multiply both the sides by 3,

6t+25t-3300=1350

31t-3300=1350

Add  both the sides by 3300,

31t=1350+3300

31t=4650

divide both the sides by 31,

t=150

the numbers of test tubes are 150.

Put the value of t in equation (1)

5t-3b=660

5(150)-3b=660

750-3b=660

subtract both the sides by 750,

-3b=660-750

-3b=-90

divide both the sides by -3,

b=30

the numbers of beakers are 30.

Therefore, the numbers of test tubes are 150 and beakers are 30.

Let omega be a complex number such that omega^3 = 1. Find all possible values of {1}{1 + \omega} + {1}{1 + \omega^2}. Enter all
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

1 is Answer.

Step-by-step explanation

\frac{1}{1+omega^{2} } + \frac{1}{1+omega }\\

= \frac{(-1)*(omega + 1)}{omega^{2}  }

As we know that ω²+ω+1=0

Thus putting in above equation, we get

= \frac{1}{(-1)*omega } + \frac{1}{(-1)*omega^{2}  }

Rearranging and simplifying:

= \frac{-1}{omega } + \frac{-1}{omega^{2}  }

= \frac{(-1)*(omega + 1)}{omega^{2}  }

= \frac{(-1)*(- omega^{2} )}{omega^{2}  }

= 1 Answer

The area of a rectangular garden is 38 1/4 square meters the width of the garden is 4 1/2 meters what is the length of the garde
Snowcat [4.5K]

Hello...

Area is measured by the formula A=L*W (Area = Length X Width)  We know the area is 38 1/4 and the width is 4 1/2. It is easiest to convert them to decimals and solve. 38 1/4 = 38.25 and 4 1/2= 4.5 .    so, 38.25 = 4.5 * W

To solve for Width, we need to isolate it by getting 4.5 on the other side. To do this, we divide by 4.5 on both sides of the equals sign. this will give us W=8.5 or Width = 8 1/2 meters.
