A restaurant has a total of 30 tables which are of two

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Total number of tables of first type = 23.

Total number of tables of second type = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that there are 30 tables in total and there are two types of tables.

Let's call the two seat tables, the first type as x and the second type as y.

∴ x + y = 30 ......(1)

Also a total number of 81 people are seated. Therefore, 2x number of people would be seated on the the first type and 5y on the second type. Hence the equation becomes:

2x + 5y = 81 .....(2)

To solve (1) & (2) Multiply (1) by 2 and subtract, we get:

y = 7

Substituting y = 7 in (1), we get x = 23.

∴ The number of tables of first kind = 23

The number of tables of second kind = 7

Find the equation of the sphere if one of its diameters has endpoints (4, 2, -9) and (6, 6, -3) which has been normalized so tha

Pavel [41]

Answer:

$(x - 5)^2 + (y - 4)^2 + (z - 6)^2 = 14$ .

(Expand to obtain an equivalent expression for the sphere: $x^2 - 10\,x + y^2 - 8\, y + z^2 - 12\, z + 63 = 0$ )

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find the distance between these two endpoints:

$\begin{aligned}&\text{Distance}\cr &= \sqrt{\left(x_2 - x_1\right)^2 + \left(y_2 - y_1\right)^2 + \left(z_2 - z_1\right)^2} \cr &= \sqrt{(6 - 4)^2 + (6 - 2)^2 + ((-3) - (-9))^2 \cr &= \sqrt{56}}\end{aligned}$ .

Since the two endpoints form a diameter of the sphere, the distance between them would be equal to the diameter of the sphere. The radius of a sphere is one-half of its diameter. In this case, that would be equal to:

$\begin{aligned} r &= \frac{1}{2} \, \sqrt{56} \cr &= \sqrt{\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2 \times 56} \cr &= \sqrt{\frac{1}{4} \times 56} \cr &= \sqrt{14} \end{aligned}$ .

In a sphere, the midpoint of every diameter would be the center of the sphere. Each component of the midpoint of a segment (such as the diameter in this question) is equal to the arithmetic mean of that component of the two endpoints. In other words, the midpoint of a segment between $\left(x_1, \, y_1, \, z_1\right)$ and $\left(x_2, \, y_2, \, z_2\right)$ would be:

$\displaystyle \left(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2},\, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}, \, \frac{z_1 + z_2}{2}\right)$ .

In this case, the midpoint of the diameter, which is the same as the center of the sphere, would be at:

$\begin{aligned}&\left(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2},\, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}, \, \frac{z_1 + z_2}{2}\right) \cr &= \left(\frac{4 + 6}{2},\, \frac{2 + 6}{2}, \, \frac{(-9) + (-3)}{2}\right) \cr &= (5,\, 4\, -6)\end{aligned}$ .

The equation for a sphere of radius $r$ and center $\left(x_0,\, y_0,\, z_0\right)$ would be:

$\left(x - x_0\right)^2 + \left(y - y_0\right)^2 + \left(z - z_0\right)^2 = r^2$ .

In this case, the equation would be:

$\left(x - 5\right)^2 + \left(y - 4\right)^2 + \left(z - (-6)\right)^2 = \left(\sqrt{56}\right)^2$ .

Simplify to obtain:

$\left(x - 5\right)^2 + \left(y - 4\right)^2 + \left(z + 6\right)^2 = 56$ .

Expand the squares and simplify to obtain:

$x^2 - 10\,x + y^2 - 8\, y + z^2 - 12\, z + 63 = 0$ .

A car travels 384 kilometers in 4 hours. (with a constant speed) how much time will it take traveling at 144 kilometers?

erica [24]

Answer:

1.5 hours or 90 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

384 km: 4 hours

divide both sides by 4

96 km: 1 hour

multiply both sides by 1.5

144 km: 1.5 hours

Paulie ordered 250 pens and 250 pencils to sell for a theatre club fundraiser. The pens cost 11 cents more than the pencils. If

Korolek [52]

Remember that cents has a decimal when put in an equation.
250(x + 11) + 250x = 4250
250x + 2750 + 250x = 4250
500x + 2750 = 4250
500x = 1500
x = 3 cents (pencils)
x+11 = 14 cents (pens)
