Dad is twice as old as Jon. Grand-Pa is seven years older than three times Jon's age. The sum of their age is 145 years. How old

Alenkasestr [34]

Step-by-step explanation:

let jon age be x

dad age is 2 of x i.e 2x

grandpa age is 7 + 3(x)

The sum of jon dad and grandpa age is 145 i.e

x + 2x + (7+3x) = 145

3x +. 7 + 3x = 145

6x = 145- 7

6x = 138

divide both sides by 6

x = 23

jon age is 23

while

grandpa age is

7 + 3(x)

7 + 3(23)

7 + 69

76.

A boutique specializes in leather goods for men. Last month, the company sold 20 wallets and 53 belts, for a total of $3,517. Th

Vlada [557]

Answer:

25 wallets and 53 belts

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we need to represent the amount with variables ( alphabets)

Let the amount charged for a belt be $b and the amount charged for a wallet be $w.

Now, we were told that last month, the company sold 20 wallets and 53 belts for 3,417.

Now if 1 wallet costs $w, 20 wallets would cost $20w

In a likewise manner, if 1 belt costs $b , 53 belts will cost $53b.

Now since we know the total cost of both equals 3,417 , this mean

$20w + $53b = $3,417

First equation.

In likewise manner,

$28w + $97b = $6,041

Second equation

This simply shows we have 2 equations to solve simultaneously.

From equation 1, we can see that

20w = 3,417 - 53b

Equation 2 can also be expressed as:

1.4(20w) + 97b = 6041

We now substitute for 20w in equation 2.

1.4(3,417 - 53b) + 97b = 6041

4783.8 - 74.2b + 97b = 6041

97b - 74.2b = 6041 - 4783.8

22.8b = 1257.2

b = 1257.2/22.8 = apprx 55 belts

20w = 3,417 - 53b

Substitute for b here.

20w = 3417 - 53(55)

20w = 3417 - 2915

20w = 502

w = 502/20 = apprx 25

A cardboard box without a lid is to be made with a volume of 44 ft3. Find the dimensions of the box that requires the least amou

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

x = 3.53 ft

y - 3.53 ft

z = 3.53 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

given details

volume = 44 ft^3

let cardboard dimension is x and y and height be z

we know that area of given cardboard without lid is given as

A = xy + 2xy + 2yz

xyz = 44 ft^3

To minimize area we have

A = xy + 2x (44/xy) + 2y(44/xy)

A = xy + (44/y) + (44/x)

we have

$Ax = y - \frac{44}{x^2}$

$0 = yx^2 = 44$ ................1

$Ay = x - \frac{44}{y^2}$

$0 = x - \frac{44}{y^2}$

$xy^2 = 44$ ..............2

from 1 and 2

$yx^2 = xy^2$

xy(y-x) = 0

xy = 0 or y = x

from geometry of probelem

x ≠ 0 and y ≠ 0

so y = x

x^3 = 44

x = 3.53 ft = y

z = 44/xy = 3.53

I have tried a couple of equation but none of them worked. Please help.

Whitepunk [10]

Let's start with the information we know.

Aiden gets $85 a month
Over 7 months, he has saved (85*7 = 595) $595
He will need to have $1955 for the laptop

1955 -

Now figure out how many months he will have to spend to get 1955 - the 595 he already has (1360 is what that comes out to.) 1360 (The total he will need) / 85 (The number you get a month)

That equals 16.
It will take Aiden at his current rate of income, 16 months to save for his new computer.

<u>--Something to remember--
</u><u />
<u></u>If the number you come out with is a decimal, I.E. 16.2, you will need to round up to the nearest whole number unless the equation specify's. In this case, instead of 16.2 it would be 17 months
