Answer:

Spelling word questions = 10

vocabulary word questions = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Spelling word questions = x

vocabulary word questions = y

Total points = 100

Total questions = 26

x + y = 26 (1)

2x + 5y = 100 (2)

From (1)

x = 26 - y

Substitute x = 26 - y into

2x + 5y = 100

2(26 - y) + 5y = 100

52 - 2y + 5y = 100

- 2y + 5y = 100 - 52

3y = 48

y = 48 / 3

= 16

y = 16

Substitute y = 16 into

x + y = 26

x + 16 = 26

x = 26 - 16

= 10

x = 10

Spelling word questions = 10

vocabulary word questions = 16

36 + h = 75...subtract 36 from both sides
h = 75 - 36
h = 39

-176 = h + (-219)
-176 = h - 219....add 219 to both sides
219 - 176 = h
43 = h

In front of a store, there is a row of parking spaces. Cars park parallel to one another, with the front of each car facing the
Gelneren [198K]

The width used for the car spaces are taken as a multiples of the width of

the compact car spaces.

Correct response:

  • The store owners are incorrect
<h3 /><h3>Methods used to obtain the above response</h3>

Let <em>x</em><em> </em>represent the width of the cars parked compact, and let a·x represent the width of cars parked in full size spaces.

We have;

Initial space occupied = 10·x + 12·(a·x) = x·(10 + 12·a)

New space design = 16·x + 9×(a·x) = x·(16 + 9·a)

When the dimensions of the initial and new arrangement are equal, we have;

10 + 12·a = 16 + 9·a

12·a - 9·a = 16 - 10 = 6

3·a = 6

a = 6 ÷ 3 = 2

a = 2

Whereby the factor <em>a</em> < 2, such that the width of the full size space is less than twice the width of the compact spaces, by testing, we have;

10 + 12·a < 16 + 9·a

Which gives;

x·(10 + 12·a) < x·(16 + 9·a)

Therefore;

The initial total car park space is less than the space required for 16

compact spaces and 9 full size spaces, therefore; the store owners are

incorrect.

Question 9 (10 points)<br> Solve for x,<br> 2(x - 1) + 4 = 4(x + 1)
Nutka1998 [239]
1. Expand
2x − 2 + 4 = 4x + 4

2. Simply
2x + 2 = 4x + 4

3. Subtract
2 = 4x + 4 - 2x

4. Simplify
2 = 2x + 4

5.Subtract
2 - 4 = 2x

6. Simplify
-2 = 2x

7. Divide both sides by
-1 = x

8.Switch sides.
x = -1

Syrus is buying a tent with the dimensions shown below. The volume inside the tent is 363636 feet^3 3 cubed. Syrus isn't sure if
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The height of the tent = 3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Question

Syrus is buying a tent with the dimensions shown below. The volume inside the tent is 36 feet^3. Syrus isn't sure if the tent will be tall enough for him to sit up inside. The tent is the shape of triangular prism whose length is 6 feet and width is 4 feet. What is the height of the tent?

Given:

Length of the tent = 6 feet

Width of the tent = 4 feet

Volume of the tent = 36 feet^3

To find the height of the tent.

Solution:

Since the ten is in shape of triangular prism, so the volume of traingular prism is given as:

V=\frac{1}{2}\times l\times w\times h

where l represents length, w represents width and h represents height of the prism.

Plugging in the know values of the dimension of the tent and the volume to find the height of the tent.

36=\frac{1}{2}\times 6\times 4\times h

Simplifying.

36=12h

Dividing both sides by 12.

\frac{36}{12}=\frac{12h}{12}

3=h

∴ h=3

Thus, the height of the tent = 3 feet
