If a+b=8, b+c=10 and c+a=12, what is the value of a+b+c?

The puzzle is solved by defining each variable in terms of another variable & a number & then making substitutions. Begin by taking each sum to define one of the variables in terms of the other. (Different combinations are available, but I’ll follow the a,b,c order.)

a+b=8 becomes a=8-b

b+c=10 becomes b=10-c

c+a=12 becomes c=12-a

Now subtract two of the equations that contain the same variable. I’ll pick two that contain an a: c+a =12 & a+b=8. Subtracting the latter from the former eliminates the “a”s, leaving c-b=4. Adding b to both sides to isolate c gives c=b+4. From above we can take b=10-c to substitute for b in c=b+4, giving us c=(10-c) + 4). Simplify the right side to c=14-c, add c to both sides, giving 2c=14, & then divide both sides by 2 to obtain c=7.

Replace the c in b=10-c with 7 to

If A = B and B = C, does A = C?

In mathematics = is assumed to be a transitive relationship. Transitivity means precisely what you stated: A = B and B = C implies A = C.

While it’s possible to use = to represent a non-transitive relationship this would be considered an abuse of notation. A ~ B or R(A, B) would be a better way to express the relation in this case.

Similar assumptions are made about operators like + and *. + is generally assumed to be commutative, whereas * can be used for noncommutative operations like matrix multiplication. E.g. A * B != B * A.

Equality in programming is another story entirely.

In many languages = is the assignment operator and == is the equality operator. Assignment is not transitive - it’s not even a relation.There are cases where the equality operator doesn’t define a transitive relation.

Scott and Nikki each have a full 1.5-gallon container of liquid laundry detergent. The lid on Scott’s container can hold 3 fluid
KatRina [158]
Scott has 16 more lid fulls of detergent than nikki.                                                First you need to convert 1.5 gallons to ounces which is 192. Then divide 192 by 3 and you get 64. Then divide 192 by 4 and you get 48. So then subtract 48 from 64 and you get 16.

The cost per hour of running an assembly line in a
nlexa [21]

Answer:

the minimum production level is costing $800 (0.8×$1000) per hour for 2000 (2×1000) items produced per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

if there is no mistake in the problem description, I read the following function :

C(x) = y = 0.3x² - 1.2x + 2

I don't know if you learned this already, but to find the extreme values of a function you need to build the first derivative of the function y' and find its solutions for y'=0.

the first derivative of C(x) is

0.6x - 1.2 = y'

0.6x - 1.2 = 0

0.6x = 1.2

x = 2

C(2) = 0.3×2² - 1.2×2 + 2 = 0.3×4 - 2.4 + 2 = 1.2-2.4+2 = 0.8

so, the minimum production level is costing $800 (0.8×$1000) per hour for 2000 (2×1000) items produced per hour.
