Answer:
The two numbers are 64 and 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
You meant "quotient" of two numbers, right?
Represent the numbers by x and y.
Then the quotient is x/y = 8, and beyond that we know that x + y = 72.
Solve this for x and y.
If x/y = 8, then x = 8y. Substituting this into x + y = 72, we get:
(8y) + y = 72, or 9y = 72. Dividing both sides by 9 yields y = 8.
Since x/y = 8, letting y = 8 results in x = 64.
The two numbers are 64 and 8.
OK.
Let's say a member and a non member each visit the garden ' V ' times.
The non-member's cost for each visit is $6 .
The non member's cost for ' V ' visits is 6 V .
His total cost for the year is 6 V .
The member's cost for each visit is $3.
The member's cost for ' V ' visits is 3V .
His total cost for the year is 3V + the $24 to join.
We want to know what ' V ' is (how many times each one can visit)
if their total costs are the same.
So let's just write an equation that SAYS their costs are the same,
and see what ' V ' turns out to be.
Non-member's cost for the year = Member's cost for the year
6 V = 3 V + 24
Subtract 3V from each side: 3 V = 24
Divide each side by 3 : V = 8 .
-- If they both visit the garden 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 times in the year,
the member will spend MORE than the non member.
-- If they both visit the garden 8 times in the year,
they'll both spend the same amount. ($48)
-- If they both visit the garden MORE than 8 times in the year,
the member will spend LESS than the non-member.
______________________________________________
That was the algebra way to do it.
Now here is the cheap, sleazy, logical, easy way to do it:
The non-member spends (6 - 3) = $3 MORE than the member for each visit ?
After how many visits does the $3 more each time add up to the $24 that
it cost the member to join for the year ?
$24 / $3 = 8 visits .
The ratio of areas is given by:
A1 / A2 = 400/25 = k ^ 2
Therefore, the relationship of the sides is given by:
L1 / L2 = k
Clearing k we have:
k = root (400/25)
Rewriting we have:
L1 / L2 = k = 20/5
Answer:
The ratio of their corresponding sides is:
20: 5
Answer:
about 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
that is simplifies, its a little over 1/4 but it says about so, yeah
