Two friends are collecting stuffed animals. Veronica has 5 more than double the number of stutted
STatiana [176]

v + m = 32 and v = 5 + 2m are the equations that are used  to determine m, the number of stuffed animals Mariposa has

Number of stuffed animals Mariposa has is 9 and number of stuffed animals with Veronica is 23

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Let "v" be the number of stuffed animals with Veronica

Let "m" be the number of stuffed animals with Mariposa

Given that,

Together, they have 32 stuffed animals

Therefore,

v + m = 32  --------- eqn 1

Veronica has 5 more than double the number of stutted  animals as her friend Mariposa

Therefore,

Number of stuffed animals with Veronica = 5 + 2(number of stuffed animals with Mariposa)

v = 5 + 2m ---------- eqn 2

Thus eqn 1 and eqn 2 can be used to determine m, the number of stuffed animals Mariposa has

Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2

Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1

5 + 2m + m = 32

5 + 3m = 32

3m = 32 - 5

3m = 27

<h3>m = 9</h3>

Substitute m = 9 in eqn 2

v = 5 + 2(9)

v = 5 + 18

<h3>v = 23</h3>

Thus number of stuffed animals Mariposa has is 9 and number of stuffed animals with Veronica is 23

Someone please help me make a proof for the bottom question
Lerok [7]

Answer:

DB = CA (Proved)

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement 1.

∠D = ∠C, M is the midpoint of DC and ∠1 = ∠2

Reason 1.  

Given

Statement 2.

Between Δ DBM and Δ CAM,  

(i) DM = CM,

(ii) ∠D = ∠C  and  

(iii) ∠DMB = ∠CMA

Reason 2.

(i) given  

(ii) given and  

(iii) ∠ DMB = ∠1 + ∠AMB and  ∠CMA = ∠2 + ∠AMB

Since ∠1 = ∠2, so, ∠DMB = ∠CMA.

Statement 3.

Δ DBM ≅ Δ CAM

Reason 3.

By angle-side-angle rule.

Statement 4.

DB = CA

Reason 4.

Corresponding sides of two congruent triangles. (Answer)

In quadratic formula
lorasvet [3.4K]

x² - x - 12 = 0


x = \dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac}}{2a}


a = 1, b = -1, c = -12

x = \dfrac{1 \pm \sqrt{(-1)^{2} - 4(1)(-12)}}{2(1)}


x = 4 or -3

Dave is three times as old as his sister. In seven years the sum of their ages will be 38. How old are they now?
bija089 [108]

Answer:

Dave is 18 and his sister is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you do 38 -7x2 you can work out the combined ages of them now which is 24 (you have to do 7x2 because there are two of them and its seven years in the future). Then you can work out their ages using a ratio. Dave’s age : his sister’s age is 3:1 so if you divide 24 by 4 (3+1 = 4 so your can work out one portion of their age) you can find out how old the sister is which is 6. Times that by 3 to get Dave’s age which is 18. A formula for this (where x is his sisters age) would be 3x=38-7x2 which cancels down to 6.
