X + y = 10

Rewrite as y = 10-x

Y - x = 6

Replace y

10-x -x = 6

Simplify:

10-2x = 6

Subtract 10 from both sides:

-2x = -4

Divide both sides by -2:

X = 2

Now replace x in the first equation:

2 + y = 10

Subtract 2 from both sides:

Y = 8

The two numbers are 8 and 2

If line uw bisects angle tuv,, m angle tue = (13x-5) and angle wuv = (7x+31) find the value of x

scZoUnD [109]

The value of x will be 6

Explanation

According to the below diagram, UW is the angle bisector of ∠TUV

That means, $\angle TUW = \angle WUV$

Given that, $\angle TUW = 13x-5$ and $\angle WUV= 7x+31$

So, the equation will be......

$13x-5=7x+31\\ \\ 13x-7x=31+5\\ \\ 6x=36\\ \\ x=\frac{36}{6}=6$

So, the value of x will be 6.

The cost c, to produce b baseball bats per day is modeled by the function c(b)=0.06b^2 - 7.2b + 390. What number of bats should

Finger [1]

You have two choices.
The minimum possible cost to operate your bat factory for a day is $390,
and there are two quantities of bats that both cost that much.

One possibility:
   Produce no bats at all per day. Zero. Nada. None.
   Cost = 0.06(0)² - 7.2(0) + 390 = $390 per day.

The other choice:
   Produce 120 bats per day.
   Cost = 0.06(120²) - 7.2(120) + 390
      = 0.06(14,400) - 7.2(120) + 390
= 864 - 864 + 390
= $390 per day.

If you produce any other number of bats in a day ... more than zero
but not 120 ... then it will cost you more than $390 to operate the factory
that day.

a cube with side lengths s has a volume of 64 cubic units. what is the length of the side of the cube?

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

volume of cube = 64 cubic units

$\therefore \: {s}^{3} = 64 \\ \\ \therefore \: {s}^{3} = {4}^{3} \\ \\ \therefore \: {s}= {4} \: units$
