X+x+y+y+z+z=24

Mathematics
1 answer:
JulijaS [17]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

b = 7/2

x = 11/2

y = 21/2

z = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2y + 2z = 24

x + y + z = 12

b + 2x + y + z = 21

2b + 2y = 28

b + y = 14

3x + y + z = 23

we can start anywhere by transforming these equations in a way that always one variable is excised by others.

so, e.g.

b = 14 - y

14 - y + 2x + y + z = 21

2x + z = 7

z = 7 - 2x

3x + y + 7 - 2x = 23

x + y = 16

16 + z = 12

z = -4

-4 = 7 - 2x

-11 = -2x

11 = 2x

x = 11/2

11/2 + y = 16

y = 16 - 11/2 = 32/2 - 11/2 = 21/2

b = 14 - 21/2 = 28/2 - 21/2 = 7/2

slope  = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

        = (70-52)/(8-1)

    = 18/7

=2.6

point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-52 = 2.6(x-1)

distribute

y-52 = 2.6x-2.6

add 52 to each side

y = 2.6x+49.4

y = 2.6x +49


the initial temperature is 49.4 or about 49

and it increases about 2.6 degrees each week

 In a​ company, 80​% of the workers are women. If 480 men work for the​ company, how many workers are there in​ all? Use pencil
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The total workers are<u> 2400.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

In company 80% of the workers are women.

480 workers are men.

Now, to find the total workers in all.

<u><em>In first way:</em></u>

If women are 80%, then men would be 100-80 = 20%.

Let the total workers be x.

According to question:

20\%\ of \ x=480

⇒\frac{20}{100} \times x=480

⇒0.20\times x=480

⇒0.20x=480

Dividing both sides by 0.20 we get:

⇒x=2400.

Total workers = 2400.

<em><u>Now, in second way</u></em>.

Again, let the total workers be  x.

According to question:

x-80\%\ of\ x=480

⇒x-\frac{80}{100}\times x=480

<em>On solving:</em>

⇒x-0.80x=480

⇒0.20x=480

<em>Dividing both sides by 0.20 we get:</em>

⇒x=2400.

<em>Total workers = 2400.</em>

Therefore, the total workers are <u>2400</u>.

A bank loaned out $8200, part of it at a rate of 7.9% per year and the rest of it at a rate of 7.4% per year. The total amount o
Lady bird [3.3K]

The amount that the bank loaned out at 7.9% is $1,574.00

How do represent the amounts lent at different rates?

On the assumption that x amount was loaned at 7.9% and that the remaining amount, (8,200-x) was loan out at 7.4%, we can determine the interest charged on each loan as the loan multiplied by the interest rate

interest on 7.9% loan=7.9%*x=0.079x

interest on 7.4% loan=7.4%*(8200-x)

interest on 7.4% loan=606.80-0.074x

total interest=0.079x+606.80-0.074x

total interest=0.005x+606.80

total interest on loans=614.67

614.67=0.005x+606.80

614.67-606.80=0.005x

7.87=0.005x

x=7.87/0.005

x=amount loaned at 7.9%=$1,574.00

y=$8200-$1574

y=$6,626.00

2. The acute angle below has a degree measurement that is one fifth of the degree measure of the obtuse
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Acute angle = 30°

Obtuse angle = 150°

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1:

Let x represent the measurement of the obtuse angle

Obtuse angle = x

Acute angle = ⅕ of x = x/5

Thus:

x + x/5 = 180° (angels on a straight line)

Solve for x

(5x + x)/5 = 180

Multiply both sides by 5

5x + x = 180 × 5

6x = 900

x = 900/6

x = 150

Obtuse angle = 150°

Acute angle = x/5 = 150/5 = 30°

Method 2:

Since acute angle = ⅕ of the obtuse angle, therefore,

Obtuse angle = 5*acute angle

Let acute angle = x

Obtuse angle = 5x

Equation:

5x + x = 180° (angles on a straight line)

Solve for x

6x = 180

x = 180/6

x = 30

Acute angle = x = 30°

Obtuse angle = 5x = 5*30 = 150°
