Answer:

80 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of pages is x
Tim has read 30 % of a book

<u>Remaining </u>

100% - 30% = 70%

0.7x = 56
x = 56/0.7
x = 80 pages

Answer:

$\bf \huge 80 \: pages$

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>Given that :</h2>

Tim has read 30 % of a book.
He has 56 more pages to finish.

How many pages are there in the book ?

<h2>let us assume :</h2>

total pages of book is 100•/•

<h2>explanation :</h2>

⟼ total book = 100•/•

⟼ Tim has read 30 % of a book.

⟼ 100 - 30 •/• = 70 •/•

⟼ 70 •/• = 56 pages

⟼ 1 •/• = 56 / 70

⟼ 100 •/• = 56 / 70 × 100

⟼ 100 •/• = 56 / 7 × 10

⟼ 100 •/• = 8 × 10

⟼ 100 •/• = 80 pages

∴ tim has 80 total pages in book.

the length of a rectangle is 3cm more than the width. find the length and the width if the perimeter of the rectangle is 98cm.

laila [671]

The perimeter of a rectangle is <u>length + length + width + width</u>.

We know that the length of a rectangle is 3cm more than its width, which gives us the equation: (l for length and w for width)

l = 3 + w

We also know that the perimeter of the rectangle is 98cm, which gives us the equation:

98 = 2l + 2w (equation for perimeter of a rectangle as noted above)

We can divide both sides of this equation by 2 to get:

49 = l + w

Now we'll stick l = 3 + w into the above equation, which gives us:

49 = 3 + w + w

which simplifies to 49 = 3 + 2w.

Now we'll subtract 3 from both sides:

49 - 3 = 46

3 + 2w - 3 = 2w

which gives us 46 = 2w.

Dividing both sides by 2 gives us 23 = w.

Substituting w = 23 into the equation l = 3 + w gives us:

l = 3 + 23

l = 26cm.

Let's check our answer. 26cm is 3cm more than 23cm. 26cm + 26cm + 23cm + 23cm gives us 98cm. The length is 26cm and the width is 23cm.

The functions f and g are defined by f: x = 4 - x and g: x = hx² + k. If the composite function gf is given by gf: x + 2x² - 16x

kozerog [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 4-x

g(x) = h $x^{2}$ +k

g(f(x)) = 2 $x^{2}$ -16x+26

so put f(x) in g(x)

h $(4-x)^{2}$ +k

h((4-x)(4-x) + k

h( $x^{2}$ -8x+16)+k

if h = 2 , then

2 $x^{2}$ -16x+32 + k

and we want 26 instead of 32 so subtract 6 so K = (-6)

2 $x^{2}$ -16x+32 + (-6)

2 $x^{2}$ -16x+32 - 6

2 $x^{2}$ -16x+26

h=2

k=(-6)
