Jared has 12 more comic books than Zoe. If they have 28 comic books

Mathematics
1 answer:
ZanzabumX [31]3 years ago

Answer:

20 comic books

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us first <u>set up a variable</u>, x, for the number of books that Zoe has. If Jared has 12 more comics than Zoe, he would have x+12 books.

Given that Zoe and Jared have a total of 28 comic books, let us write an <u>equation</u> and solve for x:

x+x+12=28\\2x+12=28

Now that we have a <u>simplified</u> version of the equation, let us solve for x by <u>isolating the variable</u> on the left side:

2x=28-12\\2x=16\\x=8

We now know that x=8, and also that Jared has x+12 books. To find the number of comic books Jared has, let us <u>add</u> 12 to x:

x+12=\\8+12=\\20\\

Therefore, Jared has 20 comic books.

A sphere has a diameter of 0.926 inch.
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

The volume of the sphere is V=0.416 \:in^3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume enclosed by a sphere is given by the formula

                                                 V=\frac{4}{3}\pi  r^3

Where r is the radius of the sphere.

The diameter of a sphere is twice as long as any radius of the same sphere and is given by the formula

                                                   d=2r

We know that the diameter of the sphere is 0.926 inch. The radius is

\frac{0.926}{2}=0.463

The volume of the sphere is

V=\frac{4}{3}(3.14)(0.463)^3 \approx0.4155385

and rounding to the nearest thousandth we get V=0.416 \:in^3.

The sum of two numbers is -1. When twice the first number and four times the second number are added, it equals -10. What are th
wlad13 [49]
Let the two number be x and y.
x+y=-1......i
2x+4y=-10.....ii
solving the simultaneous equation we have:
from equation i, making x the subject we get:
x=-1-y........iii
substituting iii in ii we get:
2(-1-y)+4y=-10
-2-2y+4y=-10
2y=-10+2
2y=-8
y=-8/2=-4
substituting the value of y in iii we get:
x=-1-(-4)
x=-1+4
x=3
therefore the first number is 3 and the second number is -4

4x° + (3x + 20)° + (3x + 20)° = 180° (sum of interior angles; isocleces triangle)

10x + 40 = 180

10x = 140

x = 14
